Chapter 345: A New Journey Dodge the inspection of the city defenses and leave.
This kind of thing is not much difficult for the church.
After all, the church has some transcendent privileges.
Early in the morning, a group of church members swaggered away with special peer badges, and the city defense did not even do any strict inspection of the entourage, but simply registered the number of people and let them go.
Because this group of people and horses of the church, who claim to be members of the Holy Knights, carry out regular training and riding training.
After all, the Holy Knights are also considered to be immediate combat troops, although according to the strict restrictions of the Imperial Decree, the number of Holy Knights stationed at the headquarters of the Temple of Light has always been strictly limited to no more than two hundred.
But everyone knew that the two hundred Holy Knights stationed there were the most elite Holy Knights selected by the various dioceses of the entire continent.
Of the two hundred Holy Knights, the worst of them had reached at least the middle level.
Just imagine, two hundred well-trained middle-level martial artists, gathered together with the strict orders of the army, fighting as a team, in this era of cold weapons, what kind of combat effectiveness can burst out But after all, a knight is a knight, and a warrior who fights right away, after all, he also needs to go out regularly to do riding training, otherwise, it is not enough to practice martial arts in the house all day long, and after a long time, riding skills will inevitably be wasted, and the war horse also needs to be trained for a long time, otherwise the combat skills will also degrade.
Therefore, it is not too unusual for the Holy Knights to regularly go out of the city for field riding training.
As for the number of these holy knights who went out of the city to train when they returned to the city, it didn't matter, with the ability of the church, they could naturally find a diocesan station outside, and just gather a few people on the way back.
The city guards stationed at the city gates did not have the authority to stop the Holy Knights to verify their identities one by one.
Under the cover of a team of holy knights, Chen Daolin and his party left without any danger, and even swaggered to the acropolis in the northwest direction, purchased a batch of supplies on the spot, and bought two carriages by the way.
The Holy Knight escorted them to a small town dozens of miles northwest of them, and only after completing their mission did they return in line.
Leave Chen Daolin and his party behind and continue to embark on an unknown journey.
It must be noted that Chen Daolin's team has expanded a lot.
In addition to Lord Darling himself, Barossa, the little maid Xia Xia, Captain Hook, and Werewolf Chuck, several new faces have been added to the team.
These new faces, in addition to the powerful thug "Brother Mengtoya" who was successfully abducted by Chen Daolin, there is also one person.
A guy named Ade is not very old, only twenty-five or sixteen years old.
This guy in a white robe is a standard priest.
This young priest, who is said to have quite good attainments in light healing and is proficient in doctrine, was originally cultivated as an important rookie within the church, according to the general process, such a guy should soon be sent to a local diocese for training, and then slowly accumulate qualifications in a small parish, and be trained as a bishop candidate in the future.
However, this Ade obviously does not look like the fixed image of the clergy in the church in Chen Daolin's heart: the expression is dull and serious, either taciturn, or he makes a compassionate gesture all day long, this young man looks very clever, a pair of brown eyes are always turning around, since he came out, this guy's eyes have been looking around, and he seems to be very curious about everything, and his whole body is full of the tide and strong curiosity of a young man.
What surprised Chen Daolin the most was that this guy with a pure "priest" profession was actually equipped with a special thing in his luggage: a big bow This has to be eye-catching.
Priests have always been known for their physical weakness.
And the Light Healing Technique has always existed as the best doctor on the battlefield, and it is also the object of key protection, and will never be on the front line of the battlefield.
Such a priest actually carried a delicate bow Barossa and quietly told Chen Daolin that this bow was not simple.
The material of this bow is actually metal, it looks like it should be unusual, and it can be made of metal texture, so this is definitely a strong bow and the bow horn is made of the horns of some kind of monster, and the bowstring is a special silk thread at a glance, with a metallic luster, and it is by no means an ordinary color of beef tendon.
The bow and arrow skills of the elves are the highest among all races, and you can't go wrong with the eyes of this kind of thing.
According to Barossa, who can use this kind of strong bow, at least the arm strength must be very good, and looking at the appearance of this Ade, his eyes are smart, and obviously his eyesight is great, this kind of person with such a bow, if he is not deliberately pretending, then he must be a very good marksman.
A great magician trained in the church, plus a priest and hidden archer with excellent healing skills. plus a macho Montoya with outstanding tackling ability.
Such a combination, it can be said that there is milk and riding, there is T and range, and magic assistance is simply a perfect adventure team In addition to Montoya, Ade was the kind of recommendation that Pope Heynckes recommended to Chen Daolin as an entourage, and Chen Daolin could not refuse, and did not want to refuse.
Of course, he understood Heynckes' intentions, and although he reluctantly accepted his identity as an oracle, the old man certainly wouldn't really trust himself completely.
Montoya, a simple-minded macho man, followed his own command and was used by himself to find the north.
And this Ade, it doesn't seem to be easy to fool, and those who can become priests will at least not have a low IQ.
This person is the ears and eyes that Heynckes threw at his side, and he is responsible for closely supervising the actions of his "divine messenger".
There is no concealment of this kind of supervision, and everyone knows it.
The church can give Chen Daolin many benefits, but at least it must be on guard against Chen Daolin.
Moreover, since Chen Daolin, the divine envoy, went out to do things with the mission of the goddess, of course the church had to send someone to follow him.
It is conceivable that Heynckes should have put a lot of thought into these two candidates.
Ade is smart and clever, and Montoya is resolute and brave.
These two men are loyal to the church, and it is almost impossible to rebel on their own.
It's just that Heynckes seems to be underestimating me Chen Daolin pursed the corners of his lips.
Forget Montoya, this guy looks like a simple-minded person, if he can't get him, Darlinggo can really hit the wall.
As for this Ade "Even if your life is miserable.
Who made you a giveaway" Chen Daolin sighed: "If it falls into my hands, how can you squeeze out all the use value on your body." ” Montoya and Ade, these two guys, are obviously the young elites carefully cultivated in the church, and Heynckes is generous enough, this kind of carefully cultivated young generation of cutting-edge is just handed over to himself In case he accidentally kills one or two, then His Majesty the Pope, don't cry.

As the group headed northwest, Montoya looked preoccupied and reticent, only opening the way at the front of the group.
Captain Hook was on guard at the end of the group.
As for the werewolf Chuck, because the appearance is too scary, and the werewolf is not suitable for horseback riding, he simply got into the carriage and waited.
Although Ade is the pastor of the church, the pastors of these churches are not as pampered as real magicians, and although some of the clergy have a corrupt lifestyle, it is clear that young people like Ade have not been poisoned and degenerate, and they still retain their devout beliefs, and seem to be accustomed to penance.
A priest actually took on the job of a coachman for a carriage, and did a decent job.
Chen Daolin was very satisfied with this, he was happy to sit in the carriage to recuperate, his head resting on the arms of the elf girl, and his mouth was eating a special fruit of the Roland Continent that was like an orange peeled by the little maid Xia Xia.
Although before he came out, the Pope had already issued a secret order, and on this trip, everything must be obeyed by the orders of His Excellency Darling, and what should not be asked is not asked, and what should not be said is not said.
But the guy named Ade was young after all, as if his surname was hard to hide, and he had only been driving the carriage for more than an hour, so he couldn't help the curiosity in his heart.
"Your Excellency Darling, where are we going?"
"Northwest."
Chen Daolin replied lazily, grabbing a hat and covering his eyes.
"Uh" Ade's heart moved, and he asked again: "Northwest, what are we going to do in the northwest?"
"Missionary."
Ade was stunned for a moment: "Missionary" His face showed a blank expression: "The northwest is the territory of the Tulip family, and the diocese has long been banned, and the rules of the Tulip family do not allow us to preach in the Northwest by the Temple of Light."
Chen Daolin opened his eyes and smiled faintly: "Who said that I preached the teachings of the Temple of Light?"
"Ahh Ignoring the young man's horror, Chen Daolin closed his eyes and recuperated.
The blood of the dead in Shiloh, the blood of the Kaman, the puppy of Ro, the Goths, will always have to be brought back from you In the evening, stop in a small town to rest.
This town is on the trade route, and it is quite prosperous, but it has been unstable recently, and there are fewer caravans coming and going, which makes this once lively town a bit of a depression. chose a hotel to live in, although Chen Daolin knew that Ade, who had been stimulated by himself, secretly muttered to Montoya for a while, he didn't care about this, just found a few comfortable rooms to live in.
This town is already more than a hundred miles away, far away, Hook and the others are obviously relieved, but Chen Daolin himself seems to have no change, when he rests at night, he just called Hook to his room to talk for a while, and then locked himself in the room alone.
The next morning, while on the road, two members of the church were surprised to find that there was one person missing from the group.
Captain Hook was gone.
Without waiting for others to express their doubts, Chen Daolin waved his hand casually: "I sent him out to do something, we don't have to wait for him, just go on the road." ” Montoya took the Pope's words to heart and did not ask anything more, but still diligently rode at the front of the procession.
The Ade, on the other hand, frowned and thought for a long time before he took the initiative to ride a horse and replace the previous Captain Hook at the end of the group.
After walking for another day, Chen Daolin suddenly ordered the team to correct the direction and turn due north.
"Uh, aren't we going to the Northwest?"
Ade couldn't help but ask.
Chen Daolin glanced at this guy: "When did I say I was going to the northwest?"
Ade was stunned: "Yesterday, yesterday you said you were going to mission. ” Chen Daolin rubbed his nose and replied without hesitation: "You must have heard it wrong."
The goddess is above, you can't be so shameless Ade glared at Chen Daolin helplessly.
Chen Daolin smiled slightly and beckoned to Ade: "Come here." ” "Hmm," Ade took a few steps closer with a blank expression.
Chen Daolin stared at him up and down for a long time, then frowned and said, "Take off your robe." ” Ade was stunned, but Chen Daolin frowned and said: "What are you hesitating about, let you take off your coat and not let you take off your underwear, it's bright and bright here, will I still eat you?"
Ade had no choice but to take off his priest's robe, but Chen Daolin snatched it up, grabbed it in his hand, divided his hands, and tore it into two pieces with a snort.
"What are you doing," Ade's eyes widened.
"It's nothing, your clothes are too dazzling."
Chen Daolin said lightly: "Dressed like this, are you afraid that others will not know that you are the pastor of the church?"
Before Ade could say something, a piece of clothing had been thrown into his arms, and when he picked it up, it immediately made the young priest furious The linen short coat in his hand was clearly the kind of clothes worn by the role of a servant Ade's face changed, and he looked at Chen Daolin dissatisfied: "Brother Darling, I am the pastor of the church after all, how can I wear the clothes of such a lowly servant" "In front of the goddess, shouldn't everyone be equal" Chen Daolin touched his nose and said lazily.
Although Ade is young, after all, he is also an elite cultivated by the church, and it is okay to ask him to follow Darling Chen as an entourage, but it is absolutely unbearable to let him be a servant, and he was about to defend a few more words, Chen Daolin had already said lightly: "I don't know what the Pope said to you, but now that you follow me out, you have to listen to my orders."
Also, I warn you again, don't open your mouth in front of me in the future, the Pope, we have to hide our identity when we come out this time, are you afraid that others will not know that you are a clergyman, if it is a bad thing, you will definitely not be able to bear this responsibility.
If you think you can't do it, it's easy, just turn around and go back. ” Ade's face was ugly, but Montoya next to him suddenly walked over, looked at Chen Daolin intently, and said slowly: "Do you really want to make Ade young like this, even if you have some surnames, you don't have to humiliate him like this."
Chen Daolin laughed a few times "haha", but glared at Montoya viciously: "Humiliating Montoya, is it an insult to you to put on a servant's clothes?"
Without waiting for Montoya to say anything, Chen Daolin had already said coldly: "You are loyal when you open your mouth and close your mouth, but piety is the real doctrine in your hearts, is it bullshit is written clearly in the doctrine, everyone is equal in front of the goddess."
But if you look at it, just let you wear a servant's clothes, and you feel insulted, and deep down, you have already regarded yourself as a high lord, as a high privilege.
You have instinctively decided that you are nobler than other believers, and you think that you should be supported by other believers.
One by one is fatter than a pig, more stupid than a pig, don't you know, you are like this, you are what the royal family is most looking forward to seeing, watching a great enemy who may still pose a threat to themselves, degenerate and degenerate into an arrogant and stupid stupid pig who only knows how to enjoy, it is simply a happy snort and keep saying that he is the most loyal servant of the goddess, but in fact, they all regard themselves as uncles.
If it goes on like this, in less than a few decades, without anyone else's hands, the Temple of Light itself will play itself to death."

Ade's face was red when he said this, and he couldn't help but clench his fists, as if he wanted to burst out to refute several times, but he couldn't say a word.
Montoya looked calmer, but after listening to Chen Daolin's words, especially the last few words, there was a hint of discoloration in his eyes, and then it turned into deep thought.
"You, you are using strong words, can you endure hardship, even if it is true piety" Ade finally thought of a counter-argument: "I have also practiced hard in the church, and I have tasted no matter how hard I live" "It's not a question of whether you can endure hardship."
Chen Daolin deliberately glanced at Ade with disdain: "The problem is that if you have a narrow mind in your mind, as a clergyman, you should be superior and superior to other believers, then such thoughts will eventually kill you."
The biggest problem with the Temple of Light is not the failure of the struggle for power, but the detachment from the people, the loss of the hearts of the people, a political party that has lost the hearts of the people, uh, I mean the community, will not have vitality. ” As he spoke, he pointed to a big tree on the side of the road: "That tree has a lot of branches and leaves, but it looks good, but even if it is full of flowers, it must be rooted in the soil, and now you clergy, like these luxuriant branches and beautiful flowers, think of yourself as a high magnate, but completely forget that your foundation should be rooted in the soil."
Let you touch the soil, you feel that you have lost your identity, phew, what is your identity, you think you are noble, but you forget, this kind of dignity is not brought by you, is it because you are a clergyman, so your life is inherently nobler than others, think about it yourself, if you are an ordinary people, seeing such a noble clergy, will you respect each other in your heart and believe in each other?"
After a moment, Montoya took a deep breath and glanced at Ade: "Put it on" With that, the silent Holy Knight strode forward, he was tall, but his back looked a little staggering.
Maybe what we've been doing is wrong The group left the lodging place again, and Ade finally put on the clothes of a servant at the end of the group, he looked very depressed, but even though he may not accept Chen Daolin's reprimand, he still had to obey the words of Montoya, the former chief holy knight.
The team left the village where they had stayed overnight, and just after leaving the entrance of the village, a figure suddenly flashed at the intersection behind it.
The tall figure stood at the entrance of the village, staring closely at the team slowly moving away on the road, and there was a deep chill in his eyes Turning around, there were more than a dozen figures standing behind him, all of them wearing leather armor and carrying various weapons of various lengths and shorts on their backs.
"It's good luck to send someone to the barracks thirty miles away to report that we caught a big fish."
As he spoke, one of his subordinates ran out quickly, and this person turned over on the horse coldly, straightened his waist hard, and exuded a faint murderous aura on his straight body "Darling Chen didn't expect to meet you here, this is providence" The originally handsome face had been distorted by hatred and anger Then, he slowly grabbed a battle axe hanging from the saddle, couldn't help laughing wildly, and shouted: "It seems that the goddess has not given up on my brothers after all, after following me to do a great thing, this great merit is enough for us to return in style."
After leaving the village, Barossa was looking at Chen Daolin stupidly all the way, her eyes were full of adoration and admiration, and the elf's big eyes were almost dripping.
Xia Xia, the little maid on the side, saw it, but sighed faintly, and then leaned to Barossa's side and said in a low voice: "Sister Barossa, what are you doing looking at the master like this?"
The elf let out a "hmm", lowered his head and thought about it, a trace of blush appeared on his delicate face, and he seemed to be a little shy, and said slowly: "I was thinking about how he understood so many truths in the words he said just now.
When he said those words, it sounded so good, it was very good-looking, very imposing."
Xia Xia rolled her eyes and laughed out loud.
The little maid sneakily glanced back at the hapless Ade hanging at the end of the line, and then whispered: "Sister Barossa, you can be fooled, this master of ours is not a kind person, he just fooled that Ade at all." ” "Fool" Barossa's eyes widened, "But I think what he said makes sense."
Xia Xia laughed and said that none of these people in the family knew this master's ability to deceive people better than Xia Xia.
At the beginning, Chen Daolin coaxed the unlucky one-eyed pirate leader, favored the other party to "Bigu", and deceived the poor pirate The whole process, the little maid saw it really At that time, she remembered that this magician master in her own family really deceived people and did not pay for their lives.
Wasn't that poor one-eyed pirate tricked to death, and when he died, he was left with a starving ghost, and he didn't even eat a full meal.
"Our lord, what he is best at is saying the most high-sounding words.
Well, in his words, it's called um, it seems to be called something, to seize the highest point of morality, and then use morality to crush the other party.
He also said a word that made me think about it, yes, it's called pretending.
Sister Barossa, do you remember, our lord has never been serious, but once he suddenly becomes serious and upright, and his mouth is full of righteousness, it is time for him to pretend to deceive people, at this time, every word that comes out of his mouth is absolutely unbelievable."
"Ahh "I don't believe it, think about it, since he said that everyone is equal, then the servant's ragged clothes, why doesn't he wear it himself, think about it again, since we started on the road, this noble pastor of a good church has become a groom, and now he has become a servant, and our lord is still a servant, he is just saying beautiful things, if he asked himself to be a servant, he would have cursed a long time ago, don't believe it, you see, this Ade fell into the hands of our master, but there is a hard time, maybe in a few days he will be tricked into emptying the toilet."
