I was imprisoned by witches

Chapter 228 A Bad Priest

The progress of the main task has reached 86%, and the decimal points behind it increase little by little as time goes by.

"The question comes back to its original point, who is the witch?"

Linn thought in confusion.

From the grandfather's place, I learned that the other party was someone I knew.The faces of An Jie, Elena, Martha, Bernice and others flashed across his mind one by one.

Through some manipulations, he has managed to reach the second level smoothly if any one of the four becomes a witch.But what about the final answer, outside of the four people here?
Linn sighed.Can't figure it out.

Returning to the Mages Guild, he devoted all his energy to making sacred patterns and used high-intensity practice to numb his chaotic brain.

The sacred pattern consumes a lot of mental energy, but Lin En felt a little relaxed when he devoted himself to this work.Forget about your worries for the time being, and increase your sub-career experience points every day in a down-to-earth manner.

His hand carving lines became more stable and precise.

The success rate of making holy patterns began to increase, reaching 70% success rate in just one year.

The monthly balance of gold coins increases to 5000.

Since this year, Linn's proficiency in water polo skills has also begun to increase, and his ice armor skills and Purple Moon Scythe have also increased to varying degrees.

Time flies by like a horse.

In a blink of an eye, five years have passed.

This year, Lynn is 17 years old.

July 7th every year is the Holy See’s regular Holy Grace Day.

On this day, in order to reward those priests who provide the most power of faith, the gods will send down oracles and grant the latter magic powers, skills, and even awakening stones for job changes.

Saint's Grace Day is a holiday stipulated by law in the Fog Continent. On this day, the streets are decorated with lights and there is an atmosphere of joy everywhere.

"Look, the Holy See's motorcade is coming!"

"This time I must get the new priest's bouquet!"

"I heard that the person who gets the bouquet will be favored by the Holy Grace for the next year."

At noon in summer, the sun was scorching hot, but it couldn't stop everyone's burning hearts.

Both sides of the street were filled with cheering crowds, they were looking forward to the direction of the Holy See.

In a short while, the talented new priest will tour the city and drop the bouquet representing the divine favor.

The most exciting thing is the strange priest's body fragrance on this flower ball!Under the strict traditional concept of the Holy See that cannot be blasphemed, many nobles have the habit of collecting bouquets: seeing things is like seeing people.

Before the visit to the city on the day of the Holy Grace, the flower ball would be bathed in the holy water with the priest. There was no doubt that it had been embraced by the priest's pure body. This obscene fantasy satisfied the eccentricities of some nobles.

Among the excited crowd, there was a young man who seemed out of place.

He is tall, has short black hair, and wears common civilian clothes in summer, with a brown linen short-sleeved upper body and black shorts.

The exposed arms and calves were thick and powerful, and a pair of eyes looked at the people around him with a hint of teasing.

"Flower ball? Body scent?"

"Stop being ridiculous, there's only the scent of my wand on it!" Linn glanced at some fat nobles who were extremely excited and might get bouquets, so they went home to rub their wands, and sneered inwardly.

Last night, in order to celebrate Martha becoming the first candidate for bishop, he sneaked into the holy water fountain of the Holy See and congratulated Martha.

The beautiful flower ball made of violets was also ruthlessly desecrated by him and Martha!
What is carried there is no holy grace at all, only Lin En!

——The person who catches the flower ball must kneel down on one knee and kiss it. Linn thought about it. It would be really chilling if some fat and disgusting nobleman got it and kissed it!

As for why he appeared here instead of burying his head in the Mage Guild's research room.
The reason is simple. The progress of the main mission has suddenly advanced significantly.

From slow growth, it advanced to 93%.

Something must have happened.

All Linn could think of was the causal relationship between Martha and Anjie.

If Martha did not exist in the Holy See, Anjie would become the first candidate for bishop, and then be targeted and framed.

Today's situation is very different.

Anjie's advantages in all aspects were almost replaced by Martha.

They have the same gentle character and the same beautiful appearance.

But Martha is almost doting on the believers.For the nobles who were born in cunning and ruthless families, this was a complete blow to the dimensionality reduction. Going to the Holy See felt like returning home.
Linn was once curious about how Martha poured ecstasy soup into the believers. Once, she went to the Vatican to spy on the news and happened to see Martha comforting a sobbing middle-aged nobleman.

The middle-aged man confessed his sins to Priest Martha: He admitted that he was a mean and bitter exploiter, and it was common for him to default on workers' wages.
They were forced to work for long hours, and many workers who were only in their 40s suffered from severe overwork diseases and died from the pain. He came to tell Martha about his sins.

If the priest were Anjie, he would definitely advise this middle-aged noble to do good deeds, increase wages for workers, ask him to apologize sincerely, etc.;
But Martha comforted the other party like this: 'How pitiful!But without your factory, those workers would have starved to death.They should be grateful to you. '

'And what's the use of being liked by them?Instead of spending gold coins on these low-class people, why not donate more to the Holy See and win the favor of the goddess.Sir, you must know which one is more important, the love of the goddess or the love of the common people, right? '

These words could be said to have touched the heart of the nobleman, and the guilt of oppressing the common people suddenly disappeared.

All the gold coins that should have been distributed to the workers were donated to the Holy See in Martha's name. In exchange, Martha said, 'The goddess is very satisfied with you.'

This kind of spiritual comfort makes the middle-aged nobles very happy, and they feel more confident in exploiting the common people.

As a woman who had worked hard and wanted to marry a good member of the opposite sex and give birth to her own little knight, Martha was far more capable than ordinary priests in how to please the opposite sex.

Lynn's magic wand couldn't last half an hour in her hands. It was indeed a critical strike, and its weakness was found out.But Martha faced a group of believers, talked about people when she saw people, and said nonsense when she saw ghosts, but she won the love of many nobles.

She had the smallest number of total followers, but the quality was extremely high. Linn secretly calculated that on average, each nobleman spent up to [-] gold coins on Martha a year.

Of course, Martha was not left alone by them. Relying on the papal background and increasingly powerful magic power, the nobles regarded her as a mother-goddess-like existence, holy and inviolable.

Little did he know that her gentle hands and lips were already full of evil.

The result of all the above is that Anjie has no hope of succeeding as bishop.

This is a plot that has never happened before in Linn's hundreds of games!
He had every reason to suspect that the sudden and substantial advancement of the main mission was related to this plot.

Martha's priest tour today was like a critical arrow piercing Anjie's chest.

Linn suddenly felt a chill in his heart, his chance had come.
