When everyone returned to Glowa, the place had completely changed into something completely different.

If Gerawa was a slightly deserted town before, now it is in a mess. Looking around, you can see traces of being hit by the tsunami everywhere, and there are many houses that were washed away.

The road in front of us is also uneven, and scars left after the earthquake can be seen everywhere.

"this……………"

Seeing this scene, Qiao Sen and Carter couldn't help but be shocked. Although they did feel the terrifying power personally, they didn't expect it to be so powerful. You must know that there is a short distance from the Ice City to here.

, even a powerful attack from a legendary powerhouse would never be able to spread to such a far place. Only the battles between gods in myths and legends could cause such tragic consequences.

Even the temple was not spared. On the contrary, as the tallest building in this town, it could be said to have borne the brunt of the damage. In addition, it had only suffered damage during Zhan's battle with a certain paladin.

He was implicated and had not yet had time to repair it. As a result, the entire temple was now torn apart, and everywhere was a scene of a water country. Zhan even saw that the atrium where he and the idiot had a conflict had now completely turned into a small pond, and was completely destroyed.

The sea water is soaked in it, and through the sea surface, you can even see a few fish swimming happily in it.

To some extent, this is not a good scenery.

But obviously, not everyone is in the mood to appreciate such scenery.

"I have heard the general story of the matter from Knight Commander Johnson."

Bishop Hegel, who appeared in front of Zhan En and others again, looked pale and exhausted. Looking at the people in front of him, he was not even in the mood to stand up to welcome their triumphant return. Instead, he showed a wry smile,

He raised his hand to signal them. Then he leaned back on the chair slumpedly, looking exhausted.

It’s no wonder that Archbishop Hegel felt so tired. You must know that the shock that occurred in the Western Wilderness affected the entire continent, and almost no place was spared. And the areas adjacent to the Western Wilderness suffered earthquakes, tsunamis, and

The attacks of natural disasters such as flash floods have caused heavy losses. Most rulers in this era always have several strong men under their command. In addition, the impact of Vivian and Naberius is so obvious that it can be known with just a little induction.

The source of this devastating impact was the Western Wilderness. In addition, the sect had previously summoned clergymen from four neighboring dioceses to participate in the investigation team. Naturally, the rulers of those areas also knew about this matter. At this moment, they naturally

These two things were associated. In their opinion, it must have been the work of the Holy Church, which resulted in such a situation. So for a time, the rulers of various countries sent envoys to the Holy Kingdom of Sais, asking the Holy Church to

The group gave an explanation for what they did and clearly told them what happened in the western wilderness.

But the problem is that the Holy Church itself is also confused about this, and the rear is busy trying to appease the angry envoys. In this case, Archbishop Hegel, who is the general person in charge of the front line, is also very busy.

Although anyone who is not a fool knows that no one could have expected such a thing to happen, and the information obtained by the Templar Order did not show that there would be a similar situation. After all, the wilderness is now unknown.

, they can be said to know nothing. In this case, any situation is normal.

But the problem is that after all, there is always someone who needs to take the blame. Therefore, Bishop Hegel was pushed out and shouldered this big stainless steel pot. This also made him feel that Alexander was asking him about the progress of the situation all day long.

.But Bishop Hegel himself doesn’t know what is going on in the Western Wilderness, so he can’t just make it up!

Because of this, Archbishop Hegel breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news that Qiao Sen and the others had returned safely. Although Qiao Sen and his party also suffered a lot of losses, they were the first ones to come out of the Western Wilderness alive.

People, not to mention that they brought back the girl named Favna safely, which was regarded as a successful completion of the mission of the central bishops. Although Bishop Hegel was slightly surprised when he saw Favna,

But after all, he had seen the world, so he didn't react much to this. Instead, he quickly ordered the nuns to take Fafna down to rest, and then listened behind closed doors to Qiao Sen's report on the whole incident.

Just came out to meet Zhan En and others.

"First of all, I want to congratulate you for successfully completing the sacred mission entrusted to you by the Holy Church. This is a difficult, difficult and dangerous task, but you finally broke through many difficulties and successfully brought us back this

Your Royal Highness, the Saint. On behalf of the Holy Church, I would like to extend my highest respect and gratitude to you."

Having said this, Bishop Hegel finally showed a smile on his face. Although the other teams have not yet contacted each other, now that Zhan and others have successfully brought back Favna, they finally feel a lot more relaxed.

, if there has been no response from the West Wilderness side, and Favna has not been brought out, then my side will really suffer. And now... this credit can be more or less for Hegel.

The bishop got some breathing room, so that he would not be really unlucky.

But this is also limited.

"I have already heard from Knight Commander Qiao Sen about Noan."

Having said this, Bishop Hegel's face turned gloomy again. It's no wonder that the investigation team sent by the Holy Church actually contained cultists who colluded with the devil. And they were not recruited by them, but by the Temple of Nature.

Recommended people, this is a very serious matter. You must know that Nuo An is a hero of the elves, and the people who recommended him were also highly respected people in the Temple of Nature. If they are really involved with the demons, then

, then it is definitely a stain on the elves, the natural temple, and even the Holy Temple Order.

In fact, after receiving Knight Jonson's report about Noan, Bishop Hegel immediately contacted the headquarters of the Holy Church and reported the matter. For this matter, the headquarters is comparable to Hegel

The bishop is still nervous. After all, the Holy Church is an organization composed of people. Where there are people, there can be no struggle for power. If this is true, then the top management of the Temple of Nature is likely to conduct a major purge. In addition, humans and

The relationship between elves is quite ordinary, and such a sensitive matter will definitely bring more trouble, but... this has nothing to do with Hegel.

"I think……………"

"We're not interested in that half-elf bastard."

However, Bishop Hegel was interrupted by Zhan before he finished speaking.

"Anyway, you want to say that he was seduced by the demons because of his own weakness, but this is also a common problem of all living things, just like birth, old age, illness and death. Whether you plan to whip the corpse or bury that guy has nothing to do with me. I

I only care about one thing, and that is whether the remuneration promised to us by the Holy Church will change because of this? You should not default on the payment."

Hearing Zhan's words, Carter also looked at him with some admiration. You must know that he is actually not interested in Bishop Hegel's nonsense. In fact, after losing so many people, he only hopes that the Holy Church

Be able to fulfill your promises instead of making excuses.

But Carter didn't expect that Zhan would be so disrespectful to the Templar Order. To put it bluntly, he was actually not interested in the fate of Noah. The latter had obviously been crushed into dregs by the terrifying dragon. He was a dead man.

Wasting time is completely unnecessary and meaningless, isn't it?

"Of course we won't default on our debt."

Bishop Hegel was already used to Zhan's blunt and revealing way of speaking. So when faced with Zhan's question, he just smiled bitterly and then answered.

"But before that, I have one more thing that I need to confirm with you."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Zhan En raised his eyebrows.

"thing?"

"About the dragon."

Having said this, Hegel also looked much more serious.

"According to what Knight Commander Johnson told you, you encountered a terrifying dragon that you have never seen before... What do you think of that dragon?"

"It's terrible."

In response to Hegel's question, Carter nodded gloomily. Although he was also a long-famous hero, Carter still felt his body trembling when he recalled the giant dragon. Even in the carriage these two days

Rikart didn't even sleep well. As long as he closed his eyes, the image of the giant dragon would appear in front of his eyes. He even had a terrible nightmare in which he suddenly appeared from the sky, opened his bloody mouth and swallowed him whole. This was

Carter hasn't been able to get a good rest these days, and I'm afraid he won't be able to get a good night's sleep for a long time.

"I have never seen such a giant dragon, that kind of terrifying power... Bishop Hegel, if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, I'm afraid you can't understand it. It's not a dragon, nor is it the dragon we are entrenched in the Doomsday Mountains.

A black dragon, but something bigger and more terrifying...how should I put it..."

After saying this, Carter frowned and hesitated for a moment before continuing.

"It's like... It's like some kind of god that can dominate and destroy everything. Just seeing it makes it impossible to muster any will to resist... In short, I will never fight such a monster.

Yes, because that is nothing but death."

"Same as above."

In response to Carter's words, Zhan just shrugged his shoulders and said nothing more. After hearing their answers, Hegel was silent for a while before continuing.

"Knight Commander Qiao Sen believes that the impact that occurred after that was caused by the battle between the dragon and the thing. Do you have any thoughts on this?" Wuyou Novel Network does not skip words.

"I have no idea..."

In response to Hegel's question, Carter shook his head, but Zhan was silent for a while, and then spoke.

"I have some opinions..."

"oh?"

"I think Mr. Carter may still remember that before that, we were chased by Noah, and that arrogant guy opened the door to the lower world and summoned the Balrog and a lot of monsters, which made it very hot.

It’s noisy, and the reason why the giant dragon came is obviously attracted by that idiot Noan. Bishop Hegel, you also know very well that Noan is a killer, not a mage. I guess he can’t even connect with otherworldly people.

He doesn’t even understand the nature of the passage, but it can open the passage to the lower world. This means that there should be a being standing behind him who is very familiar with traveling through planes, and..."

"So what you're saying is that...it's very possible that the being behind Noan appeared and had a fight with the giant dragon?"

"I'm just speculating on the possibility."

Jenn shrugged.

"After all, I didn't see that guy summon the Demon King with my own eyes. I was busy running away for my life. Who cares about this?"

This is Zhan's language art. He had already guessed that Bishop Hegel would definitely test them with spells such as detecting lies, but Zhan didn't care. The lies of the demons are not so easy to be exposed, although

Jenn was indeed lying, but in fact, Hegel was completely unaware of any abnormalities.

This is because Zhan didn’t say anything definite. He initially said that Naberius was attracted to Noan, which was indeed true. After that, he just said that there would be people behind Noan fighting against the dragon.

possibility, and in fact this possibility does exist. As for what Zhan said later, it is naturally easy to understand. Hegel thought that "this" Zhan said referred to the giant dragon, but

In fact, the "this" that Zhan said refers to the devil behind Noan. Because he is indeed indifferent to this, so even if he uses the method of detecting lies, it is absolutely impossible to get any information from Zhan in Hegel's case.

Lying reaction.

Substituting concepts, being ambiguous, and selectively telling part of the truth are exactly the rhetoric techniques that demons are best at using.

"I see."

Since he didn't get any useful information from Zhan and Carter, Hegel nodded. Then, he stood up and clapped his hands. Soon, the door to the study room opened, followed by several priests holding velvet bags in their hands.

Mat walked in from the side. On the velvet cushion, lying quietly, was a white box and a gilded document with the heraldry mark of the Holy Church. Seeing these things, Carter and the one who had been standing there

The nervous Barty next to him widened his eyes and even breathed a lot faster. Even Zhan raised his eyebrows after seeing this and showed a somewhat interesting smile.

Bishop Hegel walked past the desk and came to the front of the priests. Then he stopped. He raised his head, looked at the people in front of him, and then smiled slightly.
