You call this a shield?

Sheld comforted, it's not a good time to say the next thing, everyone is queuing up!If the sound is a little louder, if it is heard by the people next to it, if it is not kept properly, there will be bleeding time.

Don't expect this group of guys who are licking blood every day in the Demon Realm to think of ways other than violence to solve the problem in the first place.

But, then again, with the help of Ix, Sheld and his group have become exceptionally decent and clean among adventurers.

It doesn't look like an adventurer at all, with Sheld's exquisite cloak, the mysterious temperament bonus brought by the magic equipment, so that the surrounding adventurers unconsciously keep some distance from them.

With Ix's "Children of the Elements" bonus, driving a water elemental to take a bath is not too convenient. She only needs to hold her breath for a while, and she can manipulate the water flow to clean her body without leaving a drop of water.

Maybe it's using this method to win her own position, or maybe it's taking the initiative to ease the atmosphere. Ix, who was reluctant to use ice water before, is willing to help everyone take a simple bath, which is a complete improvement.

Because of this, Stike's attitude towards Ix has eased a lot.

Among them, there should be a factor that Ikes didn't talk about the portrait casually.

"Our bodies are still clean, but we are not in a hurry to wash."

"Taking a bath is not the same as washing with water elements..."

Ix clearly has a mind of her own, but she's not good at expressing it.

"Ah, look! A flag has been added to the city wall."

"flag?"

Shield looked up at the city wall, and saw a new flag hanging down from the tower above the original imperial flag and the flag representing the Miles family that ruled the city.

The emblem on the flag was very familiar to Shield.

"church?"

"The city was taken over by the church?"

The adventurers queuing together were originally complaining and discussing the sudden martial law in the city. As soon as this flag was hung up, more and more people discovered it. After a period of silence, the surroundings suddenly exploded.

Shield was just surprised, but he didn't quite understand why the adventurers around him were so excited.

Especially the buddy who stood in line in front of them actually sat on the ground with weak legs and buttocks.But the group of adventurers behind them roared excitedly, those who didn't know thought they were picking up money.

In short, everyone has different expressions, and they seem to have different attitudes towards the matter of hanging the church flag on the city wall.

This is very strange.

"These guys, why are you so flustered?"

"Because that's the flag of the church."

"What happened to the church flag?"

Sheld didn't respond a little.

Stike glanced around, sighed, and didn't explain much, but slowly uttered a few words: "Church, border, takeover."

When does the church usually take over the border?

Sheld slapped his forehead, and the two words in his mind blurted out along his throat: "Yuan Yong?"

After thinking about it, the church can take the initiative to take over the cities of other forces, and it is still on the border of the Demon Realm. No matter how you think about it, it must have something to do with monsters.

only……

"Yuan Yong, isn't there no sign? Can this thing be predicted?"

You know, when Shield first came to this world, he heard information about Yuan Yong from Yadwin, the patriarch of the Haige family, and that information was also related to his main mission, so he remembered it very carefully.

"It stands to reason that this is indeed the case. Hundreds of years after the Demon Realm came to this world, the first Abyss was born 200 years ago..."

Stiker tapped his staff lightly, seemingly a little uneasy: "Since then, there have been five surges in succession, and none of them was foreshadowed."

The truth is like this, but it's hard to say if there are any exceptions. No one has set the "rules" of the Demon Realm, and everyone is just guessing based on previous experience.

At least, the adventurers around didn't think so much. They took the church's flag more as a signal. After all, in terms of monsters, except for some experts who study monsters, the church is the most authoritative.

As for why some adventurers are excited?

The tide of monsters means that as long as you are lucky, you will get rich!There are plenty of desperadoes who have problems with food and clothing, and they are willing to gamble with their lives.

what?

You said that the tide of monsters cannot be stopped, and the place where everyone lives will become smaller?Many displaced?

Who cares about that!

First of all, you have to live well in front of your eyes, live well in front of you - most people's life expectancy is below three digits, and the human beings in this world can live to 60 or [-] years old, which is considered a long lifespan.

If you're lucky, you might never see Yuan Yong once in your life.

After death, who cares?

The long line was slowly advancing amidst the noise, until Sheld and the others approached the gate. Before Sheard could talk to the guard guarding the gate, someone suddenly called his name.

"You are...Mr. Sheard!"

This tone was full of surprise and admiration.

"?"

Sheld looked up and saw a knight in church-style armor waving at him excitedly.

"Who...who?"

Sheld thought about this "passerby first" carefully in his mind, stared at the other person's face for a full ten seconds, and finally remembered the other person when the other person walked over.

It was a fire knight. When he camped and boiled water in the wild, he had heard the other party express his longing for the saint.

Well, he also took the opportunity to complain in his heart that the saint is a woman who will pat her belly when she is bored...

With such an association, the memory began to become clear, including the plain face of the other party.

What is the fire knight doing here?

Fire transmission is over, retired?Could it be...

Without waiting for Sheld to think about it, Sheld was hugged by the fire knight: "Oh! Mr. Sheld, I didn't expect to see you here! Come with me, the Holy Maiden will be very happy to see you!"

Good guy, the saint is here?

——————Push book dividing line—————

"I, the sycamore tree demon, have met a phoenix!" "

Volume 206 Rising Storms: Chapter 99 Chapter [-] The Conspiracy of the Church

Sheld was the only one that the saint wanted to see, of course, it didn't matter if the others saw her or not—of course, the important thing was that the leading fire knight didn't want to take this group of Yingying Yanyan with her.

He very actively proposed to let Stick, Neveu and others go to rest first, and took the initiative to help them contact the hotel, and then took Sheld to meet the saint alone.

As a result, when leaving, Sheld always felt like a light on his back, and could feel an extremely strong gaze...

"Knock knock knock..."

"Please come in."

Stike half leaned on the bed, squinting at the person coming: "Why do you come to me when you have time?"

"I... come to apologize to you."

Ix slowly closed the door.

"Apologize to me?" Stike raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you need to apologize to me for?"

"I lied before..."

"I don't care anymore."

"Eh?"

Stike sat up from the bed, then stood up, her height advantage gave her a natural sense of oppression when she looked at Ix.

"The point is not to lie. Who wouldn't lie? Even the head of the group can lie."

"But you have to remember!" Stick's index finger pressed against Ix's collarbone: "Whether it's for you, for Sheld, or for others, we are a whole, you have to have a sense of responsibility, your Actions are not just affecting yourself, I hope you will think about every action you take, instead of making yourself that way, or putting the leader in danger."

"but……"

Stike took a deep breath: "I also have to apologize to you, and I only asked you this and that after everything was over. At that time, if you didn't act, Tabetha would not be able to save her. "

"It's just that, in my opinion, Tabetha is far less important than yourself and the leader."

"I……"

"Understand?"

"……clear……"

"As long as you know."

Stike sat back and shook his hand: "Go back and have a good rest."

"Oh."

Wait until Ikes leaves the room with some numbness.

"After all, I'm still a child."

Stike sighed, closed her eyes and rested her mind. Apart from the things in the team, she still had a lot of things to think about, ranging from the formulas of various alchemy potions to the sudden appearance of the "God of the Sky" not long ago.

It stands to reason that it is not her turn to be in a hurry, but combined with some previous guesses, she has to prepare in advance.

"Brave."

"If five people were really combined to form a hero, then it has already been fulfilled—the magic ability of the hero has been complemented. As an extreme mage, Ix undoubtedly possesses rare magical destructive power in the world."

"It would be fine if all of this is my guess, but if this ridiculous guess is true, aren't we the weakest braves? Can we really solve the world's crisis by relying on us alone?"

Stiker proceeded from his own rational judgment. Although unity is powerful, you must know that if the quantitative change is less than a certain level, it is difficult to cause a qualitative change.

And the strength of the brave is definitely not something that these five guys who are "almost" or "okay" can match.

"what--!"

Sighing again, Stike lay down completely.

My head hurts, I don't want to think about it for now, let's talk about it when the head of the team comes back.

"Oh, right..."

Stike, who just lay down, quickly got up again, and took out the notebook that Sheard had given her from her pocket.

"Look again, maybe you can find something."

……

"Mr. Sheard, this way!"

"You saint... live here?"

Sheld raised his eyes and looked at this place. In fact, it was similar to the hotel that the Fire Knight had found for Stike and the others.According to his thinking, no matter how bad it is, the saint should at least live in the castellan's castle?

Or prepare a special house or something to meet the status.

"Of course the city lord here has prepared a place, but the saint doesn't like to live in a place that is too luxurious."

"Well……"

Shields declined to comment.

The saint's virtue doesn't like luxury?Underestimated her?

"this way please!"

Sheld followed the Fire Knight to a remote room on the second floor, and knocked on the door.

"My Lady of Saintess!"

"What's the matter?"

A familiar voice came from inside the door.

"This subordinate met Mr. Sheard on the road and brought him here!"

"..."

There was a slight silence at first, and then Sheld heard the sound of pinging and bangs coming from inside, and then heard the voice of the saint slowly: "You let him in!"

"Yes!"
