Chapter 192: Congratulations to the Apostle for capturing a Moon Elf Girl

Wise men all have dignity, or rather, a twisted sense of self-esteem. Once their schemes are exposed, they don’t even bother to retort, content to start over. Baron Moontoe, after being defeated and fleeing Drakecity, grew increasingly resentful. So, while recuperating from his injuries, he began preparing a major move. This move had barely begun when he encountered a very frustrating problem: the various non-human races were severely disunited, and there was even a leak—a half-elf had escaped.

Fortunately, that half-elf’s tip-off reached his newly developed companions, preventing the matter from being fully exposed. However, that half-elf’s luck held, and he was rescued by a high-level warrior. Baron Moontoe’s injuries were far from healed, so he had no choice but to forcibly turn Baron Felt’s personal high-level warrior into a puppet. After all, this fellow was originally a follower of hell, so killing him wasn’t difficult.

This woman truly was his nemesis. Last time, it was because the monsters she released didn’t achieve the desired effect. This time, she directly tricked him into revealing himself. “So, the so-called city-wide lockdown and church interrogation are all fake then?”

“No, that’s real, but the action hasn’t officially begun yet. Once Father deals with the group you brought, he’ll immediately go to the City Lord’s Mansion and the City Hall to make a request, and Wizard Stardashan should already be at the Church of the Goddess of Dawn.” Senior Knight Molly suddenly unleashed a stream of white water from her hand. The water splashed everywhere, landing on the young man and the puppet. Wisps of black smoke drifted from the young man’s body, and he screamed. The puppet, however, was protected by a black, translucent defensive shield.

Under a “sizzling” sound, the defensive shield quickly corroded, creating a gap. A vine suddenly shot out from the ground, binding the broken defensive shield and the puppet together. The puppet exclaimed in surprise: “Demon-Devouring Vine!”

“That’s right, it’s the Demon-Devouring Vine, a demonic plant from hell!” The tall, thin wizard’s face revealed a faint smile, though it was slightly stiff. “To subdue this demonic plant, I endured torment for over thirty years, forcing myself to only advance to a Level 2 Wizard a few years ago. But the effort was worth it; to deal with you hellish scoundrels, hellish methods are indeed better!”

“Damn it! Drakecity, I’ll be back!” The puppet roared. Senior Knight Molly suddenly threw a pure white small ball from her hand. The ball passed through the gap in the defensive shield and struck the puppet hard through the gaps in the Demon-Devouring Vine, embedding itself three inches into the flesh. A horrific scream echoed, and the trace of soul Baron Moontoe had left in the puppet to control it was purified.

“Baron, whose name I don’t know, I, Lady Molly Kendal, now arrest you on charges of colluding with hellish demons and attempting to blood-sacrifice the entire city. Resist, and you will be killed without mercy!” Senior Knight Molly splashed another bottle of water. Most of the hellish magic that had infiltrated the young man’s body at some point was driven out, and he slumped weakly into the chair, maintaining the last shred of his dignity as a noble.

“No! I didn’t! I just wanted to restore my ancestors’ glory and reclaim the position of City Lord of Mabuster City!” The young man vehemently refuted Senior Knight Molly’s accusations.

“Then let me rephrase it. Baron Moontoe, an envoy of hell, planned a joint army of non-human races and hellish monsters to attack human cities, and ultimately attempted to blood-sacrifice the entire city to open the gates of hell. You participated and were prepared to assist them in completing the crucial first step, correct?” Senior Knight Molly’s words were very skillful. First, she established the fact of blood-sacrificing the city to open the gates of hell, and the invasion of the city by non-human races was indeed an indispensable first step. And this scoundrel, knowing this, not only failed to report it but actively cooperated, which was an undeniable fact.

“No, you can’t do this to me. I wasn’t aware. I was just using the hellish demons…” The young man’s words left Ryder and Molly speechless.

“Kid, with your intelligence, you couldn’t possibly use hellish demons. Any one of them with a brain is smarter than you. If you admit you’re an imbecile, perhaps, given your intellectual problems and the fact that you were simply used, the noble arbitrators might grant you a quick death.” Molly rolled her eyes, throwing a seed that bound the high-level warrior, who had been drained of magic and was now lying on the ground. This puppet was very important evidence.

“Molly, can you tell me the truth now? What exactly is going on?” Although Ryder fully cooperated with his sister and generally understood some things, he couldn’t fully deduce the specific details. He only knew it must be related to that newly appointed honorary lord, otherwise, Wizard Stardashan wouldn’t be involved. That guy, who doted on his daughter, was currently living in the Drakelane family’s residence.

Leaving aside the Kendal family’s affairs for now, little Will at the Church of the Goddess of Dawn encountered a minor problem. The severely injured, one-armed high-level warrior was quietly waiting there, accompanied by a half-elf girl who looked only eleven or twelve. How did he know she was a half-elf? Her exquisitely soft face, beyond description, a pair of pure and bright large eyes, slightly pointed ears, a slender figure, and long, smooth silver hair, coupled with the natural, pure aura about her, all indicated her noble bloodline—she was an awakened descendant of the elven noble Moonlight Elves.

“Thank the Goddess, I finally found you, favored one of the Goddess of Night and the Elven Goddess.” The half-elf girl’s eyes lit up when she saw the three people enter the church hall. She immediately ran over and threw herself into little Will’s arms. Yes, that’s right, she threw herself into his arms upon their first meeting and clung to him, refusing to let go.

The white-robed bishop of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn had already finished treating the high-level warrior. A hundred gold coins in offerings wouldn’t be enough to summon a white-robed bishop, but it allowed entry into the church hall to see a priest, and then the half-elf’s identity could draw out the white-robed bishop. “Thank the Goddess, it’s a pleasure to meet you, Wizard Stardashan, and Will, Honorary Temple Knight.”

This half-elf was truly something. Thanking the Goddess in the Church of the Goddess of Dawn, and it turned out you weren’t thanking the Goddess of Dawn but the Goddess of Night and the Elven Goddess. Tell me, you’re not here to cause trouble, are you?

“It seems our trip here was unnecessary; someone has already accurately conveyed the message.” Wizard Stardashan, seeing the severely wounded, one-armed high-level warrior (who had received high-level divine healing from the bishop) and the half-elf girl, immediately recalled the results of his divination.

“Although I very much want to know what happened, this half-elf girl insists on waiting for the favored one of the gods to appear before revealing anything, saying that it’s all the will of the Goddess.” Once it involved deities, the white-robed bishop could only express his helplessness. This half-elf girl was a very devout believer, but unfortunately, she didn’t worship the Goddess of Dawn but the Goddess of Night and the Elven Goddess. That’s right, she was actually a very devout believer in two goddesses.

Is this also a favored one of the gods? Little Will looked at the half-elf girl clinging to him, activating his Eye of Appraisal.
