Joan is a knight of the Order of False Heart. He thinks he is a normal person, but in the eyes of outsiders, all people with False Heart, whether they are clergy or believers of the church, are people with abnormal brains.

, talking in the empty air all day long about things that no one can understand, but they cannot be called crazy, because most of the time they can still think like normal people, and can communicate with others.

Normal people communicate with each other.

Whether in the Old World or the New World, the Church of False Heart is not a powerful church. There are very few people who truly believe in the Church of False Heart. Most of them go there for the weekly Money Is Like Dust Ceremony.

False believers.

The Church of False Heart is also well aware of this, but they don’t care. For them, as long as they can find one true believer among ten thousand false believers, they will make a profit, and they want to distinguish whether a believer is a true believer or a false believer.

Believers are also very simple, that is to see whether the believer's behavior is crazy in the eyes of normal people. A crazy believer is a true believer.

Joan's ability to become a knight of the Order proves that he is a true believer, but he never thinks that he is a madman, and he hates others saying that he is a madman. This is completely different from other clergy of the church or knights of the Order.

This may be related to the reason why he became a knight of the Order. Unlike other knights of the Order of False Heart, he did not grow up in an orphanage established by False Heart. His background is not bad. He is a member of the northern city-state Roja.

The eldest son of a wealthy businessman, if nothing unexpected happens, he will marry a girl from another chamber of commerce when he reaches adulthood, and then inherit his father's chamber of commerce and expand his family's industry.

However, because Roja and surrounding countries had border frictions due to tariff issues, it eventually turned into a war. He happened to be serving in the military at the time and had to participate in the war, and his head was injured by the enemy during the war.

At that time, he was blind in one eye, was deemed disabled, and was allowed to retire from the army.

After returning home from the army, his father tried his best to find famous doctors to treat his eyes. Finally, a local witch doctor cured his blind eyes through some mysterious rituals.

Originally Qiao An and his father thought this was a good thing, but what they didn't expect was that Qiao An's normal eyes always allowed him to see some weird things that others couldn't see. At first Qiao An still thought

He pretended to turn a blind eye, but what he didn't expect was that some of the strange things he saw could actually affect his thinking and sanity, causing him to often talk crazily in public places and do some deviant things.

Crazy people are no different.

Qiao An's father was not ready to give up on his eldest son at first, and tried every means to save him. However, after various attempts, Qiao An's crazy words not only did not weaken, but intensified, and even began to hurt others. This

As a result, Qiao An's father had to make a decision to cancel Qiao An's inheritance rights and transfer him to a second son. Qiao An was blamed and sent to a lunatic asylum run by the local False Heart Church.

What is strange is that Qiao An's madness was completely cured after entering the lunatic asylum. Although his eyes could still see some weird things, those things could no longer affect his mental thinking.

Qiao An's situation was also known to the dean of the lunatic asylum. This dean is the presiding clergyman of the Church of False Heart. He felt that Qiao An's eyes were a gift from False Heart. Those eyes could not be seen by others, but

The things he can see are all products of the virtual world, so Qiao An definitely has the potential to become a senior clergyman of the False Heart.

Therefore, the director of the lunatic asylum personally communicated with Qiao An and gave Qiao An a letter of recommendation, recommending him to study at the headquarters of False Heart in the New World.

For Qiao An, who was in despair at the time, being able to leave this ghostly place of the asylum was more important than anything else, so he signed a contract with the director of the asylum without much thought.

However, he never imagined that the headquarters of False Heart would be a crazier place than the lunatic asylum, because the lunatic asylum has slightly normal staff, while everyone in the headquarters of False Heart is a lunatic.

Qiao An conducted six years of training at the False Heart Headquarters. During these six years of training, he did not become a senior clergyman as the director of the lunatic asylum expected, but instead became a senior cleric with record-breaking results.

A knight of the Order.

Because his results were so outstanding, the Church of False Heart plans to send Qiao An to the headquarters in the Old Continent for further training, and maybe he can cultivate a Paladin of False Heart.

But in the end, this proposal was rejected. The reason is very simple, that is, the Paladins trained by the False Heart Church headquarters in the Old World have nothing to do with the New World, and the Paladins trained will not be sent to the New World again. In this case

Why should you give away the talents you have to others?

However, the problem came again later, because although there were a large number of knights of the Order in the New World, there had never been a paladin, and they did not know how to cultivate paladin.

In this case, someone thought of a way to send Qiao An to paladins from other churches and ask paladins from other churches to train him.

It has to be said that the rumors that the clergy of False Heart are all lunatics are indeed not nonsense. Such a weird idea of ​​letting paladins from other churches train paladins for False Heart is definitely not something that normal people can think of.

, and being able to pass it by all members is also not something that normal people can do.

In this way, Joan was sent to the city of Nice and became a student of Sir Capone, the Holy Knight of the Church of the Rock. The reason why Sir Capone agreed to accept Joan was because the cleric of False Heart once saved his life, and

He also helped him in the process of becoming a paladin, and he owed a favor to False Heart.

However, it is not difficult for Capone to train his church knights to become paladin, but it is really difficult for him to teach a pagan knight to become that pagan paladin.

Before he thought of a good solution, he could only arrange Qiao An to be in the patrol team in the Mission District of Nice City, responsible for patrol work.

Qiao An has been in the patrol team like this for almost a year, and the number of colleagues around him has also decreased one by one. In the end, he is the only one left. This is not because his patrol team encountered any attacks that caused casualties, but because of the loss of personnel.

It was his colleagues who either took the initiative to transfer away from his team, or they went crazy directly under his influence.

Although Qiao An himself seems not crazy at all and is very normal, in the eyes of others, he is a complete madman, and he is also a madman whose madness is contagious.

Either he mumbles some unintelligible sentences all day long, or he just stares at people, as if they are looking at monsters.

When other church knights were performing daily worship, he would often say some weird words, which sounded like incomprehensible gibberish to others, but to some church knights they sounded like

Hearing the blasphemous words, they immediately became angry and attacked Qiao An.

But the problem is that Qiao An himself is very strong, and the attackers will often be defeated by him. The matter eventually went to the United Church Council. After learning that he was a knight of the Order of False Heart, and was accepting Sir Capone of the Rock Church,

After the Paladin training, the matter was settled. After all, no one would argue with a madman, especially when there is a group of madmen standing behind the madman, and Sir Capone also has extraordinary prestige in the city of Nice.

, enough to suppress some dissatisfaction.

Because of these miscellaneous reasons, Qiao An eventually became a one-man patrol, which actually made Qiao An happy, because this way he didn't have to see some weird-looking monsters every night.

Just like Joan is a madman in the eyes of other knights of the Order, in the eyes of Joan, these knights of the Order who look almost like normal people are monsters in disguise, because at night, the true colors of these Knights of the Order will be revealed.

He sees through it.

For example, the Church Knight of the Storm God is a storm gull with scales, and every scale of this storm gull is covered with pustules.

For another example, the Church Knight of the God of Harvest is a pile of mud that is constantly changing its shape. The human bones belonging to the knight are rolling in the mud, and he can even smell the stench emanating from the other party's body.

He also tried to tell those church knights what he saw, but any church knight who heard what he said would attack him like crazy as if the biggest secret had been revealed, even if

I didn't recover afterwards.

Therefore, patrolling with other people all the time is definitely a huge burden for Qiao An, but patrolling alone is more suitable for him.

In the past, his patrol route had always been arranged on Gold Coin Avenue at the junction of the Mission District and the Commercial District, but this time his patrol route was changed, and he was arranged on the Boulder Street around the Rock Church.

According to the leader of the patrol team responsible for dispatching, someone recently wanted to steal the capstone at the top of the church of Rock Church. However, Rock Church never liked other churches interfering in the affairs of their church, so they asked Qiao An to be in charge of patrolling that area.

, if something goes wrong, it is better to communicate with the Rock Church. After all, he is still a student of the Holy Knight of the Rock Church. With this relationship, the Rock Church should not make it too difficult for him.

Qiao An didn't have any objections to this, but accepted it readily, because the location of the Rock Church was a bit remote, and there were not many people hanging out there. In addition, the Rock Church did not regularly gather believers for religious ceremonies like other churches, so

There aren't many believers gathering there, so it won't be too much trouble if you patrol alone.

The more important point is that the clergy of the Rock Church are pretty good in his eyes. This does not mean that the clergy of the Rock Church he saw are normal people, but compared to other weird things, the clergy of the Rock Church are

The image of the stone man looks a lot more normal, and after looking at it for a long time, it will feel a little naive.

Although, from the bottom of his heart, Qiao An didn't think anyone would really want to steal the capstone, because the capstone itself contained very powerful divine power, let alone an ordinary thief, as powerful as a paladin.

Even if it exists, it is impossible to touch that capstone.

The other is that the capstone is very heavy. According to Sir Capone's introduction, the capstone, which is as tall as a person, can weigh as much as twenty diamonds of the same size. This is an object that normal people cannot move.

.

However, even if he didn't take it seriously, he was still very serious about patrolling every day, and he did catch some thieves. However, those thieves targeted the shops on both sides of the street, and no one was interested in the Rock Church Sanctuary.

However, this situation seemed to have changed today, because when he patrolled the main entrance of the Rock Church, he discovered two unusual people.

The reason why they are called abnormal is because these two people are very normal in his eyes, so normal that they are no different from the people he saw before when he was normal.

You know, even if he looks at ordinary people now, he can still see some weird things on ordinary people, such as some people are wrapped in black mist, some people are covered with flames, etc. He can even see some weird things when looking at clergy.

Monsters, in short, in his eyes, the world now is a world of monsters, even when he looks in the mirror and sees himself as a monster.

However, in such a world composed entirely of monsters, two extremely normal people appear, which makes people feel weird no matter how they look at them.

Qiao An didn't think there was anything wrong with him, because in the street tavern where the two people were, other people still looked weird in his eyes, and only those two were normal.

He didn't know how the other party did it, and he didn't know if the two people had anything to do with the thief who wanted to steal the capstone. He just thought that those two people might be able to help him and help him solve his eye problem.

problem so that you can see normal things.

With a trace of expectation and curiosity, Qiao An walked directly in front of the two people.

When the people in the small hotel saw Qiao An coming over, they all looked puzzled, then stood up one by one and left in a hurry without looking back.

Although Qiao An has never done anything big, his reputation has spread throughout the church district. After all, not everyone can make the church knights go crazy inexplicably. Therefore, among all the legends about Qiao An, the most well-known one is

Legend has it that if you stay with Qiao An for a long time, you will go crazy. This also makes Qiao An like the god of plague, so that no one dares to approach him.

Qiao An ignored the attitudes of the people around him. After all, this was not the first time he had seen such a thing, and he felt that it was good enough that those people did not throw stones at him and just left voluntarily.
