I'm an Aristocrat, but I've Started a Farming System - Chapter 142
c142 unexpected visitor
Not long after they left, a knight came here, looked around, and then dug out the assassin’s body from the soil.
“waste!”
He cursed and left here.
The knight came to a temporary camp and entered the middle tent.
“Where is the person?” Dolly, who was drinking, saw the other person and asked.
“Escaped, the assassin sent to monitor was killed. I checked his injuries and killed him with one blow. Moreover, he used a knight’s sword. The assassin had no time to react.”
Dolly slammed the wine glass on the table and said with a depressed expression, “It seems that a senior knight took action. It’s really strange. Why did the other party know that Roland was here, and what was the purpose of taking him away?”
“Did someone discover the Viscount’s plan?”
“You go down.”
The knight leaves.
An old man sitting on the other side said, “Roland is an important point in the plan. If he disappears, it will have a great impact on the plan.”
Dolly shook his head, “It’s not a big problem. I made a magic mark on Roland. Only legend can find and erase him. No matter where he is, as long as the mark is still there, he can be found. Now we are in the stage of collecting materials. , let him stay outside first, and then bring him back after all the materials are collected.”
The old man wondered, “Aren’t you afraid that Roland will die, or that the other party will find a way to erase the mark?”
“Master Zago, don’t worry, we have other means. What you need to do now is to arrange the magic circle as soon as possible.”
“I know. I have to say that your plan is really crazy. You dare to reach out to the elemental realm.”
“But didn’t you also agree? After all, the plan has come true, and you can get huge benefits from it.” Dolly smiled.
Zago was speechless. After hearing the Viscount’s plan, he was frightened by the other party. But Dolly was right. After success, he might become a legend, and he would also be a legendary mage who mastered many elements.
“Damn it, I actually let the dark cultists run away.”
“The opponent cannot escape. He must still be in the Sunset Forest. The Bishop has already set up the Holy Light Array. Unless he goes deep into the forest, he will definitely be found.”
“He definitely doesn’t dare to go deep into the Sunset Forest. There are extremely powerful monsters inside, and even the bishop is afraid of them.”
“I didn’t expect that there is a town in the forest. It just so happens that tracking the dark cultists is very tiring during this period, so let’s go and rest.”
“Strange, what are they doing, paving the road?”
“What is this and why is it placed on the road?”
On the road leading to Ashes Town, two priests wearing white holy robes looked at them curiously.
When the serfs who were paving the road saw them, they knelt down and saluted, and then got up to work again.
This scene made Falco frown slightly, with a look of displeasure on his face, and scolded: “Who told you to get up!”
The serfs were startled and knelt down again.
“Damned lowly serfs!”
For some reason, Falco felt that these people were not afraid of him, unlike serfs in other places.
“There’s something wrong with the serfs here.” Horace on the other side was confused.
He actually felt a kind of vitality in these serfs. Their eyes were no longer numb, but full of hope for life.
This is not a good thing. Serfs are serfs and they don’t need any hope.
“You also noticed that these serfs are not so scared when they look at us.” Falco said.
“This is the territory of the Kingdom of Kais, which lacks faith. They have no respect for the church, so they must know what faith is.”
A whip appeared in Horace’s hand and struck the serf.
The serfs screamed in misery and pain.
Horace and Falco both laughed at their voices.
“Okay, let’s go find the lord here.”
The two left, and the serfs behind them looked at them with resentment. Instead of making these serfs afraid, what they did did made them hateful.
Some serfs struggled to stand up and staggered towards the town.
“Who is the lord here? Come out.”
A voice blessed by magic sounded in Ashes Town.
Linn, who was practicing with Matthew, heard the sound and looked in the direction of the sound.
Matthew said: “Who is so arrogant!”
The two went over and found that many people were already gathered here, some of whom were kneeling on the ground and praying continuously.
People around them moved away, and Linn and Matthew also saw the two clergymen inside.
Lin En’s face was expressionless, but there was doubt in his heart.
He had always been curious about who the unexpected visitor would be as a reward for completing a task, but he didn’t expect it to be someone from the church.
Linn has not had any contact with church members, because the Kingdom of Kais has always been at odds with the church and does not allow churches to be built within the kingdom. There are also restrictions on other noble territories.
The entire Kingdom of Kais is in a state of shallow faith, and royal power is more important and prominent than divine power.
It really surprised him that people from the church would come here.
Seeing each other’s holy robes and the patterns on them, they were members of the Holy Light Church.
For some reason, seeing them, Lin En remembered the words in the diary in the mage tower.
“Are you the lord here?” Falco looked at the other person with a condescending attitude, “Hurry up and arrange a place for us to rest, bring out the best food here, and also have beautiful women.”
Linn asked, “Are you from the church?”
“That’s right, we are clergy of the Holy Light Church. Don’t be impatient and hurry up and do it.” Horace scolded.
Their words, tone, and expressions did not take Linn seriously at all. Even if the other party was a noble, it didn’t matter. The clergy had a higher status than the nobles.
“Are you the people of the Holy Light Church like you?” Linn was surprised.
He has always held a neutral attitude towards the church, not contacting it, and not stopping other people in the town from believing, but he did not expect that the other party would be so bad.
The teachings of the Holy Light Church should not be like this.
Matthew said: “The members in a church are complex and there are many people, so something like this will exist.”
The forest was so big that there were all kinds of birds, and Linn got real confirmation from them.
Horace was angry, “Did you hear me talking to you? Why don’t you hurry up and do it?”
“My lord, they are beating us with whips.” A serf ran towards us and shouted.
The onlookers looked at him. There were scars on his body and blood was still dripping down.
The serf knelt on the ground and pointed at the two clergymen, “That’s them!”
