Quadruple split

Northeastern Continent of Innocence, Saint Prey Town

This is a small town on the edge of the joint control area of ​​​​the Holy Church. It is located at the western end of the Holy Land with the City of Light as its core. Although the name does contain a word of "town", it can be prefixed with the word "Holy" as a common name. The scale of Lei Town is much larger than small border towns like Pato and Kalan.

Because of its strategic location, a large number of pilgrims pass here every year to the Holy Land, which drives economic development. The St. Prey Cathedral in the center of the town even has several high-ranking bishops resident there. Although they come from different denominations, Whether it's treating bruises or spreading the glory of God, he is very professional, and his own strength is strong enough, let's put it this way...

If Lang En and Dave dare to cause trouble in this place, Mo Tan will probably have nothing to do with it. There are at least thirty or forty clergy in this place who can take care of them, even if they were not deceived into going to Pato at that time. The high-level paladin in the city is not much different.

The location where Yuchen appeared when he went online today was a certain room in Saint-Pré Cathedral.

"Huh~" The girl wearing a light golden high-level priest robe lazily yawned on the bed, blinked in confusion, and after a long time of reaction, she showed a clean smile and whispered to herself. : "Although I'm used to it, the feeling of suddenly changing from night to morning every time I go online is still very strange~"

Her voice is very soft, even when she is alone like this. She seems a little timid. This girl who is a bit introverted outside the game seems to have not changed in the world of innocence. She is always so cautious. Although the appearance is a very cute point, it often makes others feel like "Am I too ugly to scare her?"... Well, just understand the spirit...

In fact, it's just because someone is too shy.

This is a girl who can easily leave a deep impression on others. If Futaba’s temperament is a kind of calmness and elusiveness that cannot be copied (and her height that contrasts greatly with her personality?), Ji Xiaoge’s temperament is her Innate charm and affinity (and a very low laugh point?), Ji Xiaodao's temperament is her cold and low-pressure persona that avoids strangers, so Yuchen's temperament is... clean.

She is like a piece of white drawing paper, clean and simple. There never seems to be any malice or negative emotions in those bright eyes, as if everything is beautiful and full of goodwill. Of course, she is not naive enough to see I can't see the darkness and filth in my field of vision, but I won't be polluted by those things.

Perhaps compared to the word 'holiness' that people around her often use to praise her, the word 'tolerance' is the most suitable for her. This is a girl who is so clean that she seems to be able to tolerate everything.

Of course, this refers to temperament and first impression. Yuchen is just an ordinary girl. Of course she has her own views and emotions. She is not really just a blank piece of paper with nothing.

For example, right now, she feels a little melancholy...

"What is the one I saw yesterday?" Yuchen frowned in distress. After adjusting her priest's robe a little, she opened the door and left the room. She planned to ask the accompanying paladin uncle again. .

"Your Highness the Saint."

A low voice sounded not far away. The startled girl immediately looked back and found that the person she was looking for was striding towards this side from the entrance of the church.

"Good morning, Lord Taylor." Yuchen gave the other party a half-baked priestly salute and stuck out his tongue: "You can just call me by my name next time."

Taylor, a middle-aged paladin with a beard, immediately nodded and said loudly: "Yes! Your Highness the Saint!"

"I mean... just call me Chen Wangyu or Wangyu."

"Okay, Your Highness the Saint!"

"No, I mean you'd better stop calling me Your Highness the Holy Lady. I'm just a trainee..."

"No problem, Your Highness the Saint!!"

Yuchen rubbed his hair in distress, feeling that it was a bit difficult to communicate with this uncle.

Taro was completely unaware that the three-part King's Act he had just done had caused great harm to the girl in front of him. He just continued to look intently at this respected little saint, his eyes full of admiration and awe. You must know that he The Shuguang Sect that he belongs to has not seen a favored person for almost twenty years. Although the Holy Sect unites a family, he sees other sects discovering a favored person almost every few years. As a devout believer of the Dawn Goddess, Tai Luo is always in a bad mood.

But things are different now. The Shuguang Sect finally has a new divine favored person, a new saint, and a saint who is a divine favored person and is under the age of forty!

That's great!

"That... Lord Taylor..." Yuchen had given up struggling at this moment. She hesitated for a moment, and then asked the pious knight in front of her: "I want to ask about the... creature captured yesterday. , how is it now?"

Taylor frowned: "Are you talking about the monster that is full of violence and evil? We did not kill it according to your instructions. It has been kept alone under the church from yesterday evening to now."

"Yes." Yuchen relaxed a little, and then asked timidly: "Can I go see him again?"

Knight Taylor obviously hesitated this time. After all, the monster suppressed underground was extremely aggressive. It took three paladins including himself to capture it, although now that thing has been captured by several high-level The bishop's magical place has been sealed, but if this holy lady, who is only a trainee and has barely learned any advanced magical skills, is allowed to see it...

"Please, Lord Taylor, I just want to confirm again." Yuchen clasped his hands together in front of him and whispered: "This may be the guidance of the goddess..."

Bang!

"Let's go, Your Highness the Saint!" As soon as Paladin Taylor heard the word 'goddess', he immediately turned around and knelt down to the statue of the Dawn Goddess not far away, then stood up and nodded to the trainee saint: "Taylor follows the guidance of the goddess."

[Sorry, Goddess, I just borrowed my name. You don’t mind, right? 】

A certain newly promoted God's Favored One immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then murmured nervously in his heart.

'Well, I don't mind...'

? ? ?

Yuchen was stunned for a moment, and then whispered to Taylor beside him, "Did you hear anything just now?"

"No, Your Highness the Saint!" The other party immediately shook his head, then pulled out the long sword from his waist with his backhand, and whispered to Yu Chen: "Come with me."

The girl looked around in confusion, then put the vague voice behind her and followed Taylor towards an entrance to the underground in the church.

five minutes later

Cathedral of Saint-Pré, underground

This is not the dark, dirty and bloody place that many people imagine, nor is it a place where sanctimonious clerics abuse lynchings. In fact, every church in the Holy Union has a similar space underground. The divine power is still abundant, and the lighting is also quite good. It is mainly used to imprison some beings who are not guilty of death or need to be detained temporarily, for example... a "person" who is delirious, extremely aggressive and very dangerous. .

"This is it, Your Highness the Saint." Taylor brought Yuchen to an iron door filled with Dawn's divine power, turned around and said worriedly: "If there is any danger, please get behind me as soon as possible! "

Yuchen nodded obediently: "Yes, I understand, please open the door."

Taylor took a deep breath and muttered something in a low voice, and then saw a light golden halo flashing around him and Yuchen, and a faint light appeared on both of them at the same time.

This is the piety aura unique to the Paladin profession. It can improve the resistance of nearby people (friendly units) within a certain period of time. In layman's terms, it means increased defense. And depending on the faith, Paladins of different sects There are also some differences in the piety aura. For example, Taylor, who believes in the Dawn Sect, his aura power can not only increase defense but also slowly restore the physical strength of friendly units, which is very suitable for protracted battles.

However, after he opened the door, the expected roar and attack did not come. This made Tyro, who participated in the capture, a little strange. It stands to reason that judging from the monster's previous performance, even if its power has been sealed In the extreme, it is impossible to have no reaction like this...

He quickened his pace and walked into the room, with Yu Chen following closely behind.

"impossible!"

Taylor shouted in disbelief, there was no human figure in the empty cell!

Yuchen who was following him was also stunned: "Did he escape?"

"It shouldn't be!" The paladin who raised his sword and looked around shook his head decisively: "This place is filled with the power of the goddess. Even if an evil creature much more powerful than me is imprisoned, it will never escape. Although that monster is indeed not weak, , but it is far from being able to break through this cage, and the door here is also intact..."

He shook his head solemnly, turned around and walked outside: "I'm going to ask the Templar who was responsible for guarding this place last night, Your Highness the Saint..."

"Wait a minute!" Yuchen did not leave here with him. He just pointed to a corner of the room and whispered: "Take a look at that."

"Huh?" Taylor looked back at the corner pointed by the girl, and immediately discovered that there was an extremely unnatural shadow there. It was hidden under the shadow of a simple wooden bed. It was impossible to distinguish it if you didn't look carefully. .

The paladin strode to the bed, leaned down and took a closer look, and found that the shadow was still flowing slowly, and there was a black object of unknown texture floating in the middle.

"It seems to be a fragment." Taylor reached out and touched it lightly, then immediately flew back a few steps and nodded: "It's that guy's aura, which is full of violence and chaos. It even just now Trying to shake my soul!"

Yuchen asked in confusion: "Could it be that this fragment was transformed by that person?"

"I don't know." Taylor shook his head: "I think it is necessary to observe this thing for a while, and then bring it back to the City of Light when we set off..."

The girl nodded slightly and said softly: "Then let's do this for now. Thank you for your hard work, Lord Taylor."

The paladin immediately raised his chest and raised his head: "No, I think all this is the guidance of the goddess!"

"Well, it's all thanks to the goddess~" Yuchen smiled and nodded: "Then let's go back first."

"Yes~"

In this way, the two people quickly left the church underground. Knight Taylor went to question the Templars who were responsible for guarding the underground last night. And Yuchen returned to his room after praying beside the goddess statue for a while.

"Well, I always feel a little uneasy..." She threw her head up and fell on the bed. After being in a daze for a while, she whispered to herself: "I'd better ask."

The girl seemed to have made up her mind. She struggled to get up a little awkwardly and opened her friend list, and found... Hei Fan.

'Are you there? I have something very important to tell you here! (｀ω)’

Yuchen tentatively sent a message, which was completely different from her usual personality. She looked particularly lively and cute when sending the message, and she didn't look like a girl who was embarrassed to speak loudly at all.

‘Here, what’s the important thing? ’

Yuchen received a reply soon. It seemed that this new friend was rarely online early in the morning...well, late at night.

‘Wow! I thought you couldn't be online! Are you busy now? (*^▽^*)’ The girl quickly edited the message, still adding happy emojis.

This time, Mo Tan didn't reply immediately, but he still replied quickly: "It depends on how to understand it. My current situation is more complicated. From the perspective of being on the road, it is very relaxing and comfortable, but from the experience It's said to be extremely bad...'

‘(O_O)?’ The girl summed up her current expression vividly.

‘The pleasant thing is that I am on my way to my destination smoothly, and there are dozens of burly men as bodyguards around me, so I don’t have to walk the road by myself. ’

Yuchen blinked and quickly returned: 'Are you on your way to a mission? The treatment is so high-end (≧≦)! ! ’

As a result, as soon as she sent it, she received a second message from Mo Tan: "What's worse is that the way I hurried is that my hands and feet are tied to a wooden stick, and there is a big guy in front and behind who wants to kill me." Brothers are responsible for carrying...'

The girl was stunned at that time. For some reason, the image of Mo Tan crying and being roasted on the fire began to appear in her little mind.

‘Let’s not talk about this for now, what do you want from me? ’ Another piece of news interrupted her thoughts.

Yuchen thought about it for a moment, and then slowly typed: '(ω)ノThat's it, I received a side mission before, which was to accompany a team of paladins to investigate a certain monster incident! ’

'Then what? ’

‘And the monster was caught yesterday evening (⊙ω⊙)! ’

'pretty good. ’

'But that monster...'

'What about that monster? ’

‘Looks like you (_`)! ! ’

'who? ’

‘(=ω)you! ’
