Envoy
Chapter 147:Envoy
Elihia did not expect to one day be a member of the messenger group.≧ > ≥ Network
After all, when the church sent a messenger group, the members of the team have always been elite samurai, not only the military and military, but also the appearance should be able to represent the face of the church.She is very confident in her combat skills and the liturgy of the Holy See, but looks like... Where can a woman who runs on the defensive line all year round and holds a big sword all day long?Thinking about it, she was a little uncomfortable.
Listening to the godman Mila, they will go to the western town of the Grey Castle Kingdom to negotiate a blasphemy incident of royal power to cover up witches.In addition to the deans leading the team, the mission consisted of ten trial troops, one of whom was a cold-faced captain on the Helmes line.
But now it seems that even if he is not in the battle, he still has a cold face, standing next to him, Elehia will feel that the temperature is reduced a lot.
The god, on the other hand, was over forty years old and had a pair of wise eyes.Always laughing and talking about the anecdotes of the church, the wide-ranging, the enthusiasm and the demeanor, even in front of the archbishop, her style is still unabated.Erecia had heard more than once that she was likely to be the next bishop candidate.
And the female samurai surprise is that as a civilian, Mila's riding is not much worse than other trial troops, these two days, she has been leading the team to the forefront, from the forest mountains to the town trail, she can keep the horse at the same time reduce physical exertion.This skill can only be mastered by the long-term riding-trained trial army.
“Aren’t we going south?”After leaving the land of Helmes and entering the kingdom of the Greysburg, someone in the line asked.
"No, the border town is too far away from us, if I go six ways, I don't want my ass to be worn and blossomed."Mila said, “Let’s go east first to the town of Yugu, where there is a river leading to the city of Redwater.”The Redwater City is soon to go to the Long Song Fortress.”
“When did you join the church?”Alessia asked curiously, “Not only the anecdotes of the Holy City, but also the secular world.”
"Twelve years ago, I was thirty years old."Miella replied.
"So late," she said, surprised, "it is as incredible as I know that the older you get to understand the doctrine of the gods, it took you only ten years to promote them from believers to their officers."
"Yes," laughed Myra, "that's the charm of the church.I, who was originally the daughter of a merchant, who followed my father's business in the four kingdoms and brought some ordinary commodities to another place, the price would be several times worse.For example, the verdant corals in Haifeng County were acquired from local fishermen, and there were only 20 or 30 silver wolves.Put into the water tank and bring it to the palace of the Kingdom of Yongdong, you can exchange a golden dragon.The color is good, the branches are uniform in shape, and even can be sold for more than five.I often think, obviously the same thing, why are there two different values?”
“Because... things are expensive?”Elihia opened the way.
"I started to think so too."The god nodded, “But one thing that came later changed my mind.”An aristocrat in the royal capital secretly harbored a witch who could change the temperature, and he came up with various ways to finally raise corals from the sea breeze county in the cold perigostous king.He transformed the basement of the yard into a huge pool, with the skylight at the top, and harvesting it about once a year, yielding more than we did ten times a round trip.And this long road of business, my father will only run once a year.So the green corals in the market increased, and he sold not only to the palace, but also to the great nobles.If things are rare, the price of green coral should continue to fall.”
“But after only two years, the palace refused to accept the low-priced green corals, believing that they were all counterfeits.”Not only did my father sell the coral, which not cost the price, but doubled it.As for the nobles who hid the witches, they were taken out by the church and burned on a fire frame according to the cover-up and the witch was tied to a firecrat.But I know that the coral he raised was not a knock-on product, no different from the verdant corals my father had shipped."
"Things are rare, not the wrong idea, but there are many reasons to determine the price of commodities, this is just the simplest example - because the Yongonggong Palace uses green coral as a symbol of luxury, and artificially defines its value."When more verdant corals appeared, it had a shock to the royal regulations, so on the day of execution, the Queen also celebrated.Do you think these goods don’t look like us?
“Like...what?”Elihi did not return to God.
"Like the people under the kingship, children."“We are given a price from birth, and that price is not a reflection of our true value.”We are like this green coral, obviously, some of the price is low, and some are unattainable."
"Unattainable . . . you mean noble."
“The nobles are the corals of the eternal palace,” the god smiled, “they were born no different from us, with hands, feet, eyes and mouth.”But they are artificially set in the highest values, and this inequality depends not on their own abilities, but on the rule of royal power.So I joined the church, at least in the new Holy City of Helmes, where birth would not limit your worth.If we can turn the whole of the Big Six into the final holy city of the Church, the so-called kingdom of God, is just that.”
“You said it very well!”Eli Xia nodded his head, excited in his heart.Just as it was possible to establish a earthly kingdom of God, as described by Myra, what a beautiful sight it would be to be born without distinction of blood, without untouchables and slaves.
“The kingdom of God?“How many more do they want to be cold-blooded monsters?”The cold-faced judge of the army's long jittery reins, took a step forward, "Lord God, how much do you know about the punishment army?"
“Hey, you—” Elihia just wanted to make him pay attention to politeness, and was stopped by Mieira before he could say it.
“The punishment army of God is the most powerful warrior of the Church, transformed by a determined, dedicated and courageous judgmental army.”
"The most powerful is good, and it is good to judge the army, but they are not transformed by soldiers, but a group of emotionless monsters!"After he left the word coldly, the horse ran to the front of the team.
“He is disrespectful!”Erecia said with hatred, when Helmes saw him, he felt that he was in danger, with the stability of the generals and the bravery of the soldiers, how could he become such a person now?
"It doesn't matter, he's just upset."Myra shook her head, “There will inevitably be setbacks and sacrifices in order to build the kingdom of God on earth ... but at least we are willing.”
When the people arrived in the next town, it was late, and the priest took the messenger to the church to rest.The men returned to sleep after eating, but Elehia followed the chief of the trial army and stopped him in the aisle.
“Mr. Myra is our leader, what do you mean?”Have you forgotten all the rules and regulations of the church?”
“Your name is Eli, right?”He was silent for a moment before he spoke.
“Yes, like you, I am a judge of the army.I asked your name as early as the month of the devil, but you didn’t say anything, can you tell me your name now?”
“Abrahm,” he said without expression, “as for why should I do that...do you have brothers or sisters?”
“No.”Elihia suddenly remembered that he had said that his brother was a divine chastity.
“I have.He grew up with me in church, and we know each other as if we were alone.Later, when he took the initiative to accept the conversion of the divine army, I never saw him again - the presiding judge told me that his transformation was very successful, and now he was on a special mission for the church, and I was very happy for him."“Until one day I saw him again in the cathedral, I called his name and came forward to embrace him, and guess what I saw?”There was a hint of pain on Abrams’s face, “a stranger.”He seemed to have not seen me at all, and walked right past me, his eyes shining in the face, staring straight ahead, and acting like a human being at all.”
“...” A chill rose behind Eretia, and she wanted to shout out that the other party was lying, but Zhang could not say a word.
“The punishment of the army of God is deprived of the feelings of man, but it is only a dead thing that will be moved.”He pushed away Elehia, who was in the same place, and did not turn his head to his room.(Unfinished.)8
