Poor Xi Xi
Chapter 243 Lan Qi's Profound Guidance
The silver-armored cleric knelt on the ground for a long time, not rising, like a student called upon by the headmaster to answer a question and then left hanging, unsure and afraid to make any move before receiving further instructions.
The brown-haired youth wore a smile that was both unsettling and captivating.
Now, he was finally convinced that the other party was not bluffing, but possessed the composure of a truly powerful being.
He couldn't sense the other's strength at all, simply because the difference in their power was too great.
Being able to use Tier 7 magic cards guaranteed at least a Tier 7 expert.
And an uneasy sense of fear made him suspect... that the other party might even be...
"If you know your mistake, then do as I say."
Lanqi lightly raised his hand, waving the back of it.
It was a pity this person was a missionary of the Batian Church.
It was said that the hot-tempered Batian Church and the insidious, treacherous Silence Church had always been at odds, and had even fought more than once. It would be difficult to connect with Silence through the Batian branch.
Lanqi didn't want to meet the Batian Bishop who held the [Primordial Slab - Foundation], the most useless slab for him, whose effect was to increase the strength of ordinary attacks. Moreover, once he officially joined the Batian branch, the path of joining the Silence branch and seeking out the Silence Bishop [Primordial Slab - Seal] would be almost cut off.
"You..."
Are you just going to let me go?
The silver-armored cleric found it hard to believe that the Destruction Bishop's faction was so magnanimous. Could it be that the terrible reputation of Ivanos, the Destruction Bishop of the Southern Continent, and his followers had all along been rumors maliciously spread by their arch-enemy, Loren, by hiring online trolls?
Very likely.
-- The silver-armored cleric came to a conclusion.
So the silver-armored cleric tremblingly stood up, solemnly saluted Lanqi, and no longer dared to probe this great figure.
Just as the silver-armored cleric was about to leave as instructed.
"Wait a moment."
Lanqi's words made the silver-armored cleric instinctively straighten his back, then turn around to look at Lanqi.
Escaping was impossible, he knew that very well.
"You hit someone, right? Remember to apologize to the viscount."
Lanqi said calmly.
Since these guys were also from Lilom City, Lanqi decided to restrain them a bit for the sake of order and stability in the teaching environment.
"Yes."
The silver-armored cleric, cold sweat dripping down his back, solemnly nodded.
It seemed that Viscount Francis was quite favored by this great figure, to the point that a great cleric of at least Tier 7 or higher would actually protect a mere lord of a remote small town like this.
Fortunately, he hadn't laid a hand on Viscount Francis, otherwise there would probably have been no room for maneuver.
It seemed that he would have to be more respectful to Viscount Francis in the city from now on.
"You said earlier that you guys also have work. Tell me about it."
Lanqi said.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to learn about the activities of the Batian branch.
He had just finished roughly reading the Empire's version update announcement, and now had a preliminary understanding of the Empire's situation.
Subsequently, the silver-armored cleric told Lanqi that the Batian Church had instructed them to use a combination of wisdom and strength to gain the absolute trust of the residents in various towns as clerics, and to make them accept their teachings under legal circumstances.
"So you planned to completely control the viscount, who was already hindering you?"
Lanqi shook his head after listening.
"Please enlighten me."
This attitude of negation made the silver-armored cleric feel uneasy, and he quickly asked Lanqi for guidance.
At this moment, his heartfelt admiration, apart from fear, was more of a yearning for the strong, which was exactly the doctrine their Batian branch believed in.
This great figure, besides possessing overwhelming martial strength, was clearly far beyond the imagination of ordinary clerics like them in terms of wisdom and vision.
The most prominent thing about him was the calm, composed, and gentle scholar's temperament.
