Chapter 106 Burning
At the edge of the stone forest, Wei Miao took a rest here.
The Balrogs will not easily step out of the Fire Land, otherwise if you want to get rid of them, you must leave at least some parts.
Her left arm was dripping with blood, blocking other more important parts of the knife. The wounds were fine and broken, and the burning effects of most attacks were offset by the remaining power of eternal night.
Now her power of eternal night is only 1 point which is better than nothing.
Therefore, she won't be leaving immediately.
"The fire in the core can make Balrog riot... Could it be that it has a superior-subordinate relationship with the fire in Balrog's body... It is also possible that the fire in Balrog's body is not naturally generated, but comes from the core."
Wei Miao sat on a stone pillar, looking at the sky and thinking.
“But I can’t study this on my own. I need to rely on the power of the church.”
“It’s a pity that the attack on Aled Church made me understand the current situation of the Eternal Night Church. I’m not sure about the situation of the internal personnel, so don’t contact them rashly.”
There are no more than ten people in the Eternal Night Church who know that there is a night watchman in Alede Church, and even fewer people know that she is Sister Eternal Night.
The leader Harrien, her master and the previous son of Evernight, Ismail, Father Webb, and the imperial princess Coni, whom she vaguely met in memory.
To be more rigorous, the fallen Night Watcher who originally informed them of the Flame Dragon news would also count.
When she killed the ten-man team, Wei Miao thought that the Holy Fire Church did not know her identity, but the appearance of Ximen later made her doubt again.
There is another possibility that Ximen happens to be on a mission nearby. Alade is close to the Evernight Realm in the extreme south, and the Sons of Divine Flame have been dealing with the powerful beings there all year round.
Among the above five people, Harrien is cunning and has a stable position. There is no need to target her, because Sister Yongye, as a top combat power, does not hold a position and will not threaten his position. On the contrary, in order not to become the leader of the dead cult, he has to find ways Protect her.
After Euphia learned basic sword skills, she was transferred to this remote place and was taken care of by a priest. The reason was that the Son of Evernight was too popular and was frequently assassinated by the Church of the Holy Fire, so she was crippled. Eye.
Harrion believes that as a sharp blade to kill the Balrog, there is no need for her to show herself in front of others and suffer the risk of assassination. Euphia was still in the growing stage. If she was successfully assassinated, the Eternal Night Church would suffer huge losses.
Her master, Ismail, was the son of Yongye. Now he is old and his strength has declined. He has retired to the rear to enjoy his old age. He is a free and easy-going person and is a complete drunkard. He had no reason to hold anything against her.
Father Webb, this is Harion's cronies.
Imperial Princess Coni Holy Fire, the daughter of the current emperor Pablo Holy Fire, has the support of the Church of Evernight and is a strong candidate for the throne. As for why the princess of the Holy Fire lineage would collude with the Eternal Night Church, which is spurned by the Holy Fire Church, the reasons are rather complicated.
If this attack was deliberately leaked to the Holy Fire Church by Coni, the reason may be to force her to shift her focus from hunting the Fire Land hunters to confronting the Holy Fire Church head-on, so that she can return to the capital to seek the truth. In this way, she will be established as the banner of the Eternal Night Church to the world.
This is beneficial to Coni herself. Her Royal Highness the Princess is ambitious and not the same person as Harrion who seeks stability.
Kevin, the exiled night watchman, was punished by the church for killing a team of five people due to an error in transmitting information. He was exiled to the Dude Molten Pool to fight.
But generally speaking, the church should not banish him here. There are many places where he needs to be painted with fire more than the Doud molten pool. Moreover, the church did not send a message to guide them, so when they saw Kevin, they thought he came to the church accidentally and found them. He himself said that he was originally going to the molten pool, but he wandered here to take a look.
But after he later provided the information about Yan Long... no, he really wasn't necessarily dead. She and the priest did not see his body, only the creations he left behind. After thinking about it, Wei Miao opened the map the priest gave her before leaving. Most of the important people are in the Imperial Capital. It would be easiest for her to go back to the Imperial Capital to find out the truth.
The Imperial Capital is the core of the empire, where the headquarters of the Eternal Night Church and the Holy Fire Church are located. The dignitaries, royal family, and believers were intertwined into a complex network of relationships.
The main mission requires her to "slow down the destruction of the world." She has no clue yet, but the CG and character plots are vague guides. At this stage, it is more clear to follow the priest's instructions than to wander around on your own.
This is a standard version of the Zansura Empire map. Simplified signs such as mountains, rivers, dense forests and towns can be understood by Wei Miao, who is coming into contact with a foreign map for the first time.
In fact, for some common sense things, the core of copy and reality is the same, but the form is different.
The Zansura Empire stipulates that the direction from the imperial capital to the town "Avado" is due south. Although later the expansion of the sacred tree domain threatened the imperial capital, causing the imperial capital to move south from Qia to Vivo, the direction analysis still followed the old system.
Wei Miao carefully studied a winding route marked with graphite gray on the map.
Alade is in the southwest of the empire, and there are three ways to get to the empire in the middle of the empire.
The first is to travel due east, passing through five small towns to reach the imperial capital. The road is relatively rugged and passes through some hilly areas.
The second is to head north to the small town of Ers, where there is a famous long-distance carriage station that can go all the way to the imperial capital.
The third is to go southeast around a mountain and go to the small town at the east corner of the mountain. This is one of the few strongholds of the Eternal Night Church that is stronger than the Holy Fire Church, and it is close to the Eternal Night Domain in the extreme south.
If there was no attack, this would be an excellent place to escort her all the way to the imperial capital.
The priest chose the second option.
Both of them have fake identity certificates. There is a high probability that there will be no problem if they change their clothes and board the carriage.
The only risk is to deceive the people from the Holy Fire Church stationed there.
This long-distance route is known as the "road paved with gold", which shows how profitable it is. The masters behind it are the aristocrats of the Imperial Capital and the Holy Fire Church. For the former, as long as they give enough money, they can transport even a Balrog to the imperial capital respectfully.
The priest had been gone for a while. Wei Miao followed the familiar path in his memory and came to the original tunnel exit. There was no sign that the whitewashed land had been opened.
There is a pit under the stone pillar on the side. In it is a set of black robes wrapped in a cloth bag, which can cover up the nun's uniform.
As for the priest, after he took off his priest's robe, he had a white vest underneath, so there was no need for a black robe.
Wei Miao put on the black robe without any disdain. She adjusted the night dress sheathed to stand vertically and pinned it to her waist so that it could be hidden under the black robe.
She turned back and looked at Tuhuo Di. The fiery red light illuminated the dim sky, and ashes continued to fall from the sky.
She suddenly had a strange idea.
This world is burning!
