Chapter 196 Small Card
In the blink of an eye, the weekly purchase day came again. Ma Lu had made preparations early and put the white egg on his head. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the knight's apartment. .
Ma Lu picked up the helmet he had put on the table when he left last time, and first searched for the most recent emails.
Since it was known that he would check his mailbox only every seven days, Cerberus and Bird of Paradise stopped leaving messages for him. Only Skylark still sent various messages tirelessly, which seemed to completely ignore Malu. Use it as a diary.
But this did give Malu some understanding of the lives of witches.
After their magic power is detected, infant witches will be adopted by the church from their parents and sent to witch schools collectively.
Compared with ordinary schools, the school rules of the witch school are very strict and the coursework is more arduous.
In addition to basic cultural classes, witches also need to learn the mastery and application of magic power. They start to hone their combat skills and accumulate combat experience from an early age.
In addition, the church advocates diligence, thrift and tolerance and opposes indulgence in luxury. Therefore, there is almost no entertainment for the students at school, and witches are not allowed to leave the witch school until graduation.
In fact, even if the witches successfully graduate, their movements are still restricted.
They are required to live in the witch's house, respond to the knights' call at any time, go to the wild to perform dangerous missions of the church, and fight against those activated plants.
However, I still have some freedom compared to my student days. At least I no longer have to attend classes and train on time every day.
Although most witches will still formulate and implement their own training plans in order to maintain their physical condition, the witch house will also provide free training grounds and gyms for the witches living there.
In addition, witches are no longer banned, but they need the approval and supervision of knights every time they go out, and they are still prohibited from having in-depth contact with ordinary citizens.
After reading Skylark's diary for a week, Malu could feel more and more the church's control and fear of the witch.
On the one hand, they need the power of the witch to deal with the activated plants outside the city, but on the other hand, they are wary of this power.
The theory of original sin, the witch school, the witch's house, and the ring of order that can control the death and death of witches are like shackles set by the church, tightly confining the witches.
After finishing the world view, Ma Lu clicked on the news about the Holy Knights.
There are two in total, one of which is a transfer, totaling 210,000 holy silver coins and 2,600 atonement points. This is the reward after completing the last mission.
Although the task system has estimated the results before, the actual distribution will have to wait until two days after the task is completed.
However, it is also understandable that any large organization will have many processes involving finance. In comparison, the Church of Order is relatively fast.
In addition, Malu also received a very official letter of commendation. The main content was to praise his outstanding performance in the previous mission and encourage him to make persistent efforts and continue to serve the church and the Temple City. war.
Ma Lu didn’t know if this thing was a group message, so he glanced at it and turned it off.
Including the 223 atonement points remaining from the previous purchase of the Color Changer's double-barreled shotgun, he now has a total of 210,000 holy silver coins and 2823 atonement points on hand, which is enough to strengthen some teams.
Ma Lu planned to draw a card first, ah no, by donating to the church and then recruit a witch.
But just when Ma Lu was putting on his armor and preparing to go out, he found a small card at the entrance. It seemed that someone had stuffed it through the crack in the door.
Ma Lu's first reaction when he saw the little card was, oh, so you, the thick-browed and big-eyed Temple City, have also rebelled, and your customer base has even expanded to the Paladins.
However, when he picked up the card, he didn't see any heart-stirring photos of beautiful women on it, only a somewhat scrawled message.
It's a pity that Malu is illiterate in this plane, and he doesn't understand any of the words on the card.
No matter what the purpose of the person who put the card was, it was just to wink at the blind man. Malu crumpled the card into a ball, threw it into the trash can behind him, opened the door and walked out of the apartment.
On the way to the giant white tower, he passed the small square again.
There are no more burning racks and bound witches. The peace of the past has been restored. There are even a few children running and playing in the open space of the former wooden platform. Some people imitate the knights, and the rest The characters activate the animals, and the two sides fight together.
Ma Lu just glanced briefly, and without stopping, he quickly crossed the square, then walked through three more streets, and finally came to the foot of the giant tower.
He explained his purpose to the monk in charge of reception at the door, and was then led to the 19th floor.
Malu sat in a white living room with only one chair and one table for about five minutes. An old woman in her sixties, with sharp eyes and a hooked nose, opened the door.
Without any self-introduction or greeting, the old lady got straight to the point.
"I heard that you want to expand the number of witches under your command, knight?"
"That's right."
"Then you need to make enough contributions to the church, Is this your first time recruiting a witch?”
"Yes."
"For 150,000 holy silver coins, I will ask someone to bring a group of witches over, and you can choose one of them to take away."
Okay, this is really exciting. Card.
"No problem." Malu paid without hesitation.
The old woman waited for a while to confirm receipt of the transfer message, and then nodded to Malu, still expressionless.
"In half an hour, those witches will appear in front of you."
After saying that, she turned around to go out, but was stopped by Malu from behind, "Then I'll come back in half an hour, just in time. I also plan to go to the weapons and equipment department to pick up a few more pieces of equipment today.”
“Okay.” The old woman’s answer was as concise as ever, and she kept walking.
Ma Lu then took the elevator down to the 11th floor, where he met Xixi, whom he had interacted with last time.
Xi Xi failed to recognize him at the first time. After all, the knights were all made of iron, and there was no difference between them outside.
Moreover, there was already a guest next to Xi Xi, so Malu walked to an empty terminal.
With his previous experience, he easily searched for weapons and equipment suitable for the three witches under his command.
Ma Lu only bought weapons for Skylark last time, so this time he plans to upgrade to Cerberus and Bird of Paradise.
However, compared to Skylark who could only use a training gun to make up the numbers, the purple-haired girl and the red-haired girl had much better equipment attributes. These were the prizes they won in the school competition.
It would be a pity to eliminate them like this. After all, Malu is still in its infancy, and he only has less than 3,000 atonement points on hand, so he must use them sparingly.
Thinking of this, Malu's eyes fell on a piece of equipment.
