Chapter 105: The Temple of Spring Water
The news of the clearing of critically ill patients, along with the city guards rushing in and out, and the guys who delivered food and firewood, spread wave after wave to the whole city.

"All cured?" The cup in Baron Vaughan's hand clattered and fell to pieces.The personal servant who came to report hurriedly said:

"No, no. It's just that those who can't get out of bed are cured, and those with mild symptoms are not so fast!"

"...how many people are seriously ill?"

"This……"

"Go and find out!"

The servant ran away.Baron Vaughan glanced at the fragments on the ground regretfully, and murmured:
"So fast... Horner is not capable of such an old thing. If this is true, he has to donate more money to the Temple of the God of War..."

"So fast?"

Viscount Joan, who was far away in the manor outside the city, was not slow to get the news. "Not bad, I'm tired of this poor man... Come on! Pack your bags and go back to the city! By the way, are you going or not?"

"I want to go back! Of course I want to go back!" Mrs. Deya burst into tears: "Master Viscount, please make the decision for me! Roman has been dead for so long, and the temple will not let me take his body! My lord, you Just take pity on this son and help him one last time!"

The carriage rolled, and drove from the manor outside the city to the Temple of the Goddess of Spring in the city.And the great priest Horner, who was in charge of the temple, was also frowning and troubled by the news of the Guanghui Church.

The improvement of the healing ability of those two is not a good thing for the Temple of the Goddess of Spring.To put it lightly, he will lower his bald head to the bishop; to put it seriously, the influence of the temple and the donations he will receive in the future will all be reduced.

"How did they do it? Is there any more detailed news?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The person who reported the letter nodded like a pest:

"We got the news that the little guy called the jeweler, tinkered with something, and then used that thing to see... saw...

Our people didn't have a chance to get close, and we didn't know what it was, but it seemed that when the elders saw it, they called a group of people together to whisper.Then, today, those who are seriously ill have been cured..."

"Is that so?" The great priest pushed the round-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.With his hands behind his back, he walked from east to west, and from west to east.After much deliberation, he frowned:

"I must go and have a look. Come! . . . No, never mind, call the jeweler first!"

The jeweler came tremblingly.After pointing fingers and talking for a long time, he didn't explain what Gretel asked him to build-the only useful information was that by relying on that thing, you could see very small things!
"How small?"

"No...I don't know...Little man, the little man saw him drop a drop of water on the glass, and then leaned over to look..."

"Then what can you see? ——Okay, don't talk about it, just make one as it is!"

The jeweler cried and went to work.Helplessly, a microscope cannot be made in the blink of an eye. Gretel had allocated enough manpower for him earlier, and then personally went to the battle to select the lens and adjust the focal length. It would take an entire night to complete one.The great priest Horner waited and waited, but did not wait for the finished product, but got a message:
"Great priest, it's not good! There is news from the Deism, saying that they are asking for our permission, and they are going to sprinkle lime into the fountain!"

"Let them go!"

The person who came was trembling and rushed away.The high priest threw a cup angrily, summoned the priests, and continued to pray.After a round of prayers, another message came in:

"Great priest! The elders of the Deity Church, and the bishop of the God of War Temple asked for an interview, and they said yes, the fountain is really polluted, and we can't clean it up!"

"They're still coming to the door?!"

The high priest was furious.That is the holy spring of the goddess, and it is the blessing of the goddess to the believers and to the city of Heartland. Sprinkling lime into the fountain is no different from blaspheming the goddess!
"Come on!" He stood up angrily.The action was too hasty, the silver crown on his head shook and fell straight down.Priest Horner simply pulled off the silver crown and slammed it on the ground. With a "snap", the silver crown carefully carved with the pattern of daffodils crooked into a lump:
"Ring the bell, blow the trumpet! Gather all the priests and tell them that the time has come to defend the glory of the goddess!"

In the deep night, the gate of the Temple of the Goddess of Spring opened suddenly.Two rows of guards rushed down with torches in their hands, and then the temple knights rushed out with their helmets and armor on, full of murderous aura.Finally, the great priest appeared surrounded by swords and torches, his face full of anger:

"Erwin! You are too much!"

"We're just here to cleanse the fountain."

A calm voice sounded from the opposite side, slowly and without any emotional ups and downs.It's like the thick dark night in front of you, no matter how strong the great priest's anger is, it can only light up for a moment, but cannot tear the entire night.

"As long as the water sources in the city are polluted, they must be thoroughly purified. Horner, please don't interfere."

"You are blaspheming the goddess!" The high priest Horner took a few steps forward and stood in front of the fountain.Anger made his voice more high-pitched, almost shrill:
"This is the holy spring of the goddess! It was only temporarily polluted by patients the day before yesterday. We have held a prayer ceremony and thoroughly purified it! Erwin, if you throw debris into the holy spring again, you are blaspheming the goddess!"

"I'm afraid you haven't been completely purified." Elder Erwin sighed softly: "Horner, otherwise... let's go in first, let me show you the evidence?!"

"What evidence! There is no evidence! - The holy spring of the goddess is absolutely impossible to be unclean!" The great priest couldn't argue, and rushed to interrupt him:

"roll!"

The staff in his hand paused, and the three gemstones on the head of the staff shone with brilliance at the same time, obviously a divine technique was ready to be launched.

"Horner." Elder Erwin sighed softly.The bald bishop also came out and stood beside him.At the same time, there was a sound of footsteps in the darkness, and the healers and warriors rushed out, facing the fountain temple, forming a menacing semicircle.

"What? You still want to use force?!"

Priest Horner was stunned for a moment, then angrily shouted:

"There is no proof, you forced yourself to the gate of the temple to desecrate the glory of the goddess? In this case, even if the temple is weak, it will fight you to the death! Guards!"

"exist!"

With a clanging sound, the temple knights behind the great priest unsheathed their swords in unison.Elder Erwin slapped the oak stick, the bald bishop raised his right hand high, and the soldiers stepped forward without saying a word.When the sword was on the verge of breaking out, a clear voice suddenly sounded from behind the elder:

"I have evidence."

Gretel walked out slowly.Elder Erwin glanced back at him quickly, and tried to stop him, but it was too late: What are you doing out here!What are you doing out here!Keep insisting that the water in the fountain of the temple also needs to be purified, well, you have also produced evidence, the teacher came forward for you, what do you do by jumping out!
You are a level 1 priest, offending the great priest will do you no good!

Under the firelight, Gretel's expression was calm and calm, only the black eyes staring at the great priest were beating with flame-like brilliance.He didn't necessarily want to be in the limelight, but Elder Erwin didn't understand the relationship between water sample testing, bacterial growth, and plague.Let the teacher come forward to argue with others, it will definitely not be clear...

In order to eliminate the source of infection as soon as possible, he had to come forward for this matter.If you are hated by the great priest, then bear it!
He held up a glass vial:
"We tested water samples throughout the city. - This fountain, and other water bodies connected to the fountain's water source, have all detected the source of the disease. Even the mouth of the water bottle is no exception. We have reason to suspect that the fountain has Before, it was polluted."

"Gret Nordmark!"

High Priest Horner stared at him, grinding out the boy's name syllable by syllable from between his teeth.After replacing the new silver crown, a strand of gray hair that wasn't bundled up stood up straight:

"The water source of the fountain is the deepest part of the temple, the holy spring bestowed by the goddess! Before it came out, it was prayed and blessed, how could there be any problems!"

"I have evidence." Gretel repeated calmly: "Your Excellency, if you want evidence, I can show you. But the matter is urgent, and the plague is still spreading throughout the city. For the safety of the people in the city, please You let us purify the spring water—"

"Oh? Is there evidence?" A voice interrupted abruptly.At the same time, a long cry sounded outside the circle of people facing each other with swords and swords:

"Your Excellency, the City Lord, to—"
