Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

An enemy who worships [Lost]...?

Luo Xiu's mind turned slightly.

In fact, this was not the first time he faced a believer of [Lost].

Luo Xiu thought of another extraordinary guard of the "Golden Iris Caravan" at that time.

"Curser" Cavill, that is the extraordinary person of the destiny of [Lost].

"An enemy who worships [Lost]?"

Luo Xiu then made a puzzled expression and asked Priest Leonard: "... [Lost], is it an enemy from the Church?"

-The Holy Tower Church is an ancient country located in the north of the Nolan Empire, with [Lost] as its ruling destiny.

The relationship between the Church and the Empire has never been harmonious, so Luo Xiu asked this question.

In the "Judgment War" of "God's Destiny" version 1.0, in addition to facing a behemoth like the "Dark Principality", the "Holy Tower Church" is also an enemy of the Empire.

However, the Church in the previous life intervened in the war with the excuse of "holy war" when the war was in full swing and the situation was gradually becoming clear, and got a large piece of the pie of benefits from the empire's iron cavalry.

"It is indeed their background." Leonard nodded and said, "I will take you to meet Pamier and others, and they will tell you the details."

...

Songyuan Territory, outside the city of Sina.

On the post road leading to "Red Maple City", a four-wheeled carriage was shuttling through the mountains and ridges.

This carriage is a unified standard for the carriages of officials at the level of the Nolan Empire and the city lord. Only on the white curtains of the carriage windows, there is a golden "sun" pattern painted to symbolize that it comes from the Church of the "Holy Court".

Luo Xiu was sitting in the carriage, and opposite him sat another young priest and a paladin covered in heavy armor.

"Luo Xiu."

Connor smiled, "This should be your first mission of "Judgment of Heresy", aren't you afraid?"

"... A little bit." Luo Xiu's tone was slightly depressed, "To be honest, I don't know what methods the enemies of [Lost] have. The unknown is always scary..."

This is a lie--

He is very excited now! If there were no one watching, he would even want to find a bandit's nest and kill them on the spot.

In addition, Luo Xiu didn't know which unlucky guy who believed in [Lost] he would meet, but he might know the fate of [Lost] better than the bishop of the "Holy See" Church.

Pamier, wearing heavy armor, glanced at Luo Xiu's position, and a cold female voice came from under the helmet:

"It's normal to be afraid, well...it's better to say that fear is the motivation to survive."

Then, Pamier's tone became serious and he got to the point: "The enemy we are going to face this time is a secret society called the 'Ancient Hermitage'."

"Ancient Hermitage"? I haven't heard of it, but the name sounds quite ancient...

Pamier continued: "This is a small group of hermits who follow the [Lost] doctrine."

"According to our current intelligence, the members of this secret society usually appear in places where 'ancient existences' are discovered and try to steal the ancient secrets therein."

"..." Luo Xiu nodded.

I understand. It's the ancient tomb robbers...

"So," Luo Xiu asked, "Did a new seal of 'ancient existence' appear in Hongfeng City? And who asked the church for help in the task of 'Judgment of Heresy' this time?"

"It was Lord Rodif."

Pamier said, "I don't know more about 'ancient existence' than you do... Captain Anthony will explain the rest in person after we arrive in Hongfeng City."

Luo Xiu nodded, and said nothing more.

...

The carriage swayed along the way and arrived at Hongfeng City three days later.

It was a medium-sized town.

But it was more like a "military fortress" than a town.

Because Hongfeng City was located at the border of Songyuan Territory and even the entire Nolan Empire.

It was only separated from the "Dark Principality" by a continuous mountain range, and the border with the "Holy Tower Church" was only separated by a winding river.

Therefore, "Red Maple City" needs to be prepared at all times to resist the sudden invasion from the "Dark Principality" and the "Holy Tower" Church.

Such a geographical location will make Red Maple City the "main city of players" in the previous life-because during the "Judgment War", due to the strategic location of Red Maple City, it was one of the central points of the main battlefield.

However, for the "chaotic zone" at the junction of the three countries like "Red Maple City", it is a Feng Shui treasure land in the eyes of players.

What the natives fear is what this group of fourth disasters desire-deserters, criminals, cultists, secret black markets, battlefield corpse-grabbers...

Red Maple City, which is full of chaos and crisis, is exactly the "opportunity" that players are pursuing!

Therefore, a large number of players poured into Red Maple City, which gradually became a landmark area for frontline players to gather.

Later, when the "Judgment War" ended, the resident players carried out a series of urban expansion and transformation, and built it into a new city with player characteristics.

Although in name, "Red Maple City" still belongs to the jurisdiction of the Nolan Empire, for some reason, the Nolan Empire in the previous life gave players a considerable degree of power.

Luo Xiu lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the fortress city in front of him.

The familiar gray-brown thick walls, the familiar double-layer triangular watchtower... Looking at the scene in front of him, Luo Xiu inexplicably felt like going home.

...

When the carriage drove to the gate of Red Maple City, Pamier handed out the pass of the "Holy Judge" from the curtain.

The guards on duty checked it and found it correct, so they raised their long spears in their hands and watched the carriage of the "Holy Judge" drive into the city.

"This is the little privilege of the 'Holy Judge'."

Connor's voice came from the opposite side of Luo Xiu, and he smiled and said, "We don't need to accept the guards' interrogation. This is the convenience brought to us by our identity."

This is quite convenient, Luo Xiu thought so, and at the same time heard the voice from Pamier: "After entering the city, we will first meet Captain Anthony at the 'Glorious Church'. He will make arrangements for us later."

Red Maple City-Glorious Church, this is equivalent to the church's subordinate organization in Red Maple City, which is at the same level as "Dawn Town-Glorious Church".

Captain Anthony? Pamier seems to mention this name often... Luo Xiu pondered.

According to convention, a complete "Holy Judge" team does need to be led by a transcendent who is at least a triple destiny of [Glorious].

Before, when Connor and Pamier came to Dawn Town, Luo Xiu hadn't thought too much about it.

But now it seems that this "Captain Anthony" should have been somewhere else, performing other tasks.

"Okay." Luo Xiu nodded, but saw that Connor's expression opposite him was a little complicated. He was gritting his teeth and whispering with some hatred:

"Captain Anthony... owes money to Anthony..."

"He still owes me forty gold coins... forty..."

"..."

Luo Xiu seemed to smell the fragrance of melon.

There is more in the evening, so I'll post one chapter first ==
