When Ji Yunzhu woke up, he had already returned to the room of the Radiant Temple. He opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Hughes sleeping beside his bed.
It seems that things are all right... Ji Yunzhu moved slightly, and Hughes who was sleeping next to him suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him with worried eyes.
"I'm fine." Ji Yunzhu smiled and stroked the top of his hair.
Thinking of the previous events, Ji Yunzhu still had lingering fears. He felt that it was really not easy for him. In such a difficult environment, he managed to persevere tenaciously. Not only did he not lose his vest, but he did not die directly.
Moreover, the people from the Temple of Radiance seemed to have given him healing potions, which made Ji Yunzhu feel that his body was full of energy, and he was in better condition than before going to the ceremony, and most of his injuries had recovered.
Seeing Ji Yunzhu's energetic appearance, Hughes finally calmed down, and threw himself into Ji Yunzhu's arms, rubbed his body, and said in a low voice: "If something happens to the bishop, I will I don't even know what to do..."
"It doesn't matter, as long as I have you waiting here, I will definitely come back alive." When Ji Yunzhu said this, he was absolutely sincere, and then he said: "And I am also very powerful, It won’t be that easy to go wrong.”
Why does this sound like a flag?
The attendant next to him looked at this warm scene and felt very good. After thinking about it, he didn't tell Hughes that he had been missing for a while and didn't return to the temple until it was dark... Maybe it was a child who went out to play mischievously Alright.
"Lord Aiwen." Seeing that the time was almost up, the attendant said, "Master Cardinal has ordered you to go directly to the main hall when you wake up, and we are discussing matters about the ceremony now."
"Okay." Ji Yunzhu nodded, thinking that this is also a necessary procedure.
He said to Hughes: "Wait here obediently, I will be back when the time comes."
"Hmm!" Hughes seemed a little reluctant to let him leave, but finally nodded.
Ji Yunzhu feels that such well-behaved children are really rare now!He is indeed his son, but he is different from ordinary brats!
[Host, do you... still remember that the protagonist is already in his teens? 】
Ji Yunzhu: "..." This kind of thing is not important at all!
The people I met along the way looked at Ji Yunzhu with respectful eyes, completely different from the previous neglect and indifference, as if their impression of Ji Yunzhu had been refreshed.
It is indeed a new one... In the previous ceremony, Ji Yunzhu's heroic behavior has spread, and everyone knows that he sacrificed his life to save everyone. What a kind person he is!It's so narrow-minded compared to their previous behavior.
Ji Yunzhu is also very used to this kind of situation, smiling and nodding to everyone, people passing by can't help feeling that Bishop Aiwen is not only kind-hearted, but also so polite, and also looks so good-looking... There is really such a perfect person in the world. people.
Soon Ji Yunzhu came to the hall.
Almost all the people who went to the ceremony had already gathered here, and there were still a few high-level personnel of the temple in front, and the young, handsome but majestic Pope stood at the top.
The atmosphere in the hall became a little more lively after Ji Yunzhu walked in, and everyone looked at Ji Yunzhu with extremely friendly eyes.
It gave Ji Yunzhu a feeling that he was very popular... He knew that his previous behavior could increase everyone's favorability, but he didn't expect it to be so successful!
Even a few high-level figures expressed condolences to Ji Yunzhu, and the Pope nodded slightly to him. Although it was just to show off, this is no longer the treatment that everyone is entitled to.
The only exception among this group of people was the third prince who stood in the most prominent position in the crowd below. He could say that he hated Ji Yunzhu to the bone.
He even suspected that the reason why he passed out before was because of Ji Yunzhu's tricks, which stole all the limelight.The people from the Dark Temple sound powerful, so that's probably the case, otherwise, how could none of the people present die.
And I didn't expect that my subordinates were so useless, they didn't even catch the little ghost next to Ji Yunzhu, and they came back so uselessly.
Then the first person spoke, and first praised Ji Yunzhu's spirit of saving people despite danger, and then his tone suddenly became serious, "During this operation, Bishop Aiwen, you used some kind of forbidden technique, but we There seems to be no record in the books of the Temple of Radiance..."
Ji Yunzhu: "...cough cough cough cough!" He didn't think about it that much at the time, hey!
The people around saw Ji Yunzhu coughing and showed worried expressions, thinking that he was seriously injured and hadn't recovered yet, and after thinking about it, they would give Ji Yunzhu some supplements or something.
"Actually, that is..." Ji Yunzhu has experienced so many tense situations anyway, how could he not know anything, "It's just a thought that came to me after reading those books about magic, as long as I have enough mental strength , can it prevent the opponent's magic from launching?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately felt that it made sense.They usually just study step by step, and never thought that such a powerful magic circle could be forcibly blocked by themselves.
"But after all, my strength is nothing more than that, which is why I suffered serious internal injuries... As for forbidden techniques and so on, that's all for me to intimidate those people. After all, this can make them afraid and delay time." Ji Yunzhu He seemed to have given everything for the Temple of Radiance.
Ji Yunzhu's acting skills can even fool the devil, and the people present immediately felt that what he said was very reasonable, not to mention that Ji Yunzhu was going to sacrifice himself to save everyone, so what could be different?
The incident was thus explained.Even the third prince would not foolishly jump out to humiliate Ji Yunzhu at this time. He thought he still had a trump card in his hand, so he snorted and said nothing.
"Then the next step is to see who is the first in this ceremony." The archbishop in red said.
Everyone was shocked, thinking of the most important thing.After all, the person who gets the first place can become the pope's apprentice!This is definitely a sky-high opportunity.
But now, they don't think they can get this opportunity anymore, after all, their performance in that ceremony can be said to be not very good at all.
"I think Bishop Aiwen deserves to be number one!" Someone in the crowd suddenly said.
"Yes!" After the others were stunned, they also began to echo: "I also think Bishop Aiwen should be the number one!"
"There was an accident in this ceremony. It is not appropriate to rely on the number of holy spirits. Bishop Aiwen has done so much in this ceremony. I think he should be the number one."
Ji Yunzhu was shocked. If he hadn't seen other people speak with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a procrastination simulated by the system.
The high-ranking figures above also nodded, obviously feeling that what these people said made sense.
If it wasn't for Ji Yunzhu this time, the new generation of talents in the Glory Temple would all be buried in the ruins of the Kingdom of God.This is a matter related to the future of the temple, and the temple has also considered rewarding Ji Yunzhu.
Seeing that things were about to settle down like this——
"No." The third prince couldn't help it at this time, and stood up directly, "I don't think this is appropriate. Even if Bishop Aiwen made a great contribution this time, he can be rewarded in other ways. This ceremony has long been It has been agreed that whoever finds more holy spirits will be the first..."
He stopped in mid-sentence.
The third prince suddenly recalled the scene of those holy spirits crashing into Ji Yunzhu's arms when he and Ji Yunzhu were exploring the ruins together.And the number of holy spirits he got... is zero. Although it is very humiliating, this is an indisputable fact.
Why is it like this! !
When the others heard what the third prince said, they wanted to refute, but because of the third prince's identity, the scene fell into silence.
Only Ji Yunzhu showed a relaxed smile, "Ah, judging by the number of holy spirits, I seem to have some here... Although it was affected by the accident later, there are still more than a dozen."
Everyone was shocked, so what does more than a dozen mean? !Before, there were only a dozen or so at most!They themselves only caught one or two holy spirits!
If it weren't for the fact that they had a high degree of affection for Ji Yunzhu, they would probably think that Ji Yunzhu was bragging now.
Only the third prince looked disheveled, feeling that he had dug a hole for himself to jump into.
Ji Yunzhu handed over the storage ring in his hand with the expression of everyone looking at ghosts, "I wonder if this amount is enough for the first place?"
After the man took it, he immediately showed a look of astonishment, "There are seventeen holy spirits!"
This is not to mention the number one this time, even in the ceremonies of the past, this number can be said to be the number one!
Did Bishop Aiwen stab the Holy Spirit's lair?Even after that kind of thing happened, he could still catch seventeen. If this hadn't happened, the number he caught would be unbelievable?
Everyone gasped, and looked at Ji Yunzhu with admiration in their eyes. They didn't expect Bishop Aiwen to be so powerful in this aspect, and they were completely convinced of Ji Yunzhu.
The archbishop in red also nodded, already full of affection for Ji Yunzhu in his heart, this kind of talent is the elite that will support the future of their temple!
Seeing that the archbishop in red was about to announce that Ji Yunzhu was about to become the pope's disciple, the third prince could no longer hold back because of the anxiety in his heart, and immediately said: "I still have objections!"
At this time, the eyes of the people looking at the third prince are not so good. They have already made troubles, so what do they want to do now.
The third prince felt that he was so aggrieved that he was going to die, so he gritted his teeth and threw out his trump card, "You are all so stupid, you think this Aiwen is a good person, he is actually a spy sent by a pagan! "
Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, and the archbishop in red frowned even more, and said: "If there is such a thing, please show the evidence."
If it wasn't for the third prince who said this, he would have been detained directly.
Ji Yunzhu: "...!" Did the third prince really discover something?
"Oh, I said that you were all deceived by him, and you still don't believe it." The third prince sneered and waved his hand directly, and his subordinates immediately brought a stack of materials and distributed them to everyone.
"It can be seen that our bishop Aiwen's resume before he became a bishop was completely forged, and he didn't dare to reveal his past at all." The third prince said: "And it is a great contribution to making him a bishop later , it was a den of heretics. But he didn't investigate at all before this, as if he found it by intuition, and even after that, he hasn't caught a high-level figure of heretics. Isn't that very suspicious ?”
Ji Yunzhu: "..." I thought it was some more powerful evidence, but it turned out to be just these ordinary things!
"And this operation is also, why can the heretics find the place where our ceremony is held?" The third prince said: "It is in a very hidden place. And these heretics, why don't they just execute them directly? Aiwen, who is extremely threatening, has made so many things... I think these things are just a trick they set up to turn their spies into disciples of the Pope!"
"But your evidence is not enough to prove..."
Although most of the people rescued by Ji Yunzhu were determined, some of them felt wavered.As for those high-level figures in the Glory Temple, they really feel that this situation is suspicious.
"I know it's not enough to prove it." The third prince said again: "But we can test it. If Bishop Aiwen is really not a pagan, it can be detected by the test of the god image, isn't it?"
The third prince really felt that there was definitely something wrong with Ji Yunzhu in his heart, and his whole body revealed suspicious points. Even if he wasn't sent by the people from the Dark Temple, he probably was sent by other forces, and he wasn't a good person anyway.
The words of the third prince obviously convinced some people, and the archbishop in red immediately looked over with apologetic eyes, "Although I'm sorry, but this is something that cannot be ignored. Anyway, as long as Bishop Aiwen is fine with you, the statue There will be no warning."
Ji Yunzhu: "Yeah, um." Damn!Things like this are troublesome!
Although Ji Yunzhu firmly swears that his soul is a human being, but after all, his body is still a mixed blood demon, so no matter how he thinks about it, he feels very dangerous...
However, for testing, it is enough to do it in the hall.It's just that this kind of test felt a little humiliating. Many people felt that Ji Yunzhu had been greatly wronged, and they all came forward to comfort him.
Ji Yunzhu himself felt that it was nothing...he had already prepared for this day...and to be honest, he was indeed an undercover agent sent by the demons!
"Everyone don't have to worry about me." Ji Yunzhu said, with a soft light in his eyes, and a bit of bitterness in his words, "I believe that those who are clear will clear themselves. God will definitely prove everything."
Seeing Ji Yunzhu like this, everyone felt more and more dissatisfied.
Soon the inspection ceremony was almost done.
There is a magic circle in the center of the hall, which is said to be able to communicate with the gods, and people who walk into it will unconsciously leak the breath of the soul itself, and it can also detect things like talent and blood.
Ji Yunzhu felt that the person who invented such a BUG magic circle was really a genius, and he was more careful than others in checking household registration.
He took a deep breath and stepped into the magic circle.
Everyone held their breath and paid close attention to everything in front of them.
At that moment, a burst of power was released instantly, and the red-clothed archbishop next to him was overjoyed, "It's a human race. And the soul is also extremely pure, without the breath of heretics."
Ji Yunzhu tried his best to cover up the aura of his body with his soul power. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard the words of the archbishop in red. He actually has a son with the devil...
Ji Yunzhu did not specifically avoid the Pope this time, mainly because his avoidance was too deliberate, as if he had a ghost in his heart?
Besides, when he met the Pope, the Pope was still a child who didn't know anything, would he know what the breath of the soul is? !Definitely totally unrecognizable.
The Pope who was sitting at the top was suddenly startled when he felt the breath of the other party's soul.
He didn't pay much attention to these people's affairs at first, but this kind of breath is too familiar... just like that person.
Although he was only a child back then, the Pope will never forget the past, and the person who taught him tenderly.
"Could it be you?" The pope's eyes fell on Ji Yunzhu.
Of course the Pope heard what the third prince said before, but thinking about it now, these doubts fell on Ji Yunzhu, which made him feel... Could it be that person really?
Such a thing should not happen.
But he couldn't help thinking, couldn't help wanting to believe.Because he missed that person so much... He clearly knew that the other person had died.
Afterwards, when testing talent, Ji Yunzhu's amazing magic talent also shocked everyone. Now, no one thinks that there is anything wrong with Ji Yunzhu... The top management of the organization that does not cultivate such talents must be out of their minds !
The third prince was in a state of astonishment the whole time, "How, how?"
Ji Yunzhu smiled and said, "It seems that you were surprised by this ending... But sometimes, your cognition is not necessarily correct."
"Shut up!" The third prince can no longer maintain his demeanor, rather his mentality has been mostly broken since he was hit by Ji Yunzhu in the ceremony before, "Then how do you explain your identity? !"
The smile on Ji Yunzhu's face suddenly froze, and his eyes seemed to be tinged with loneliness, "After all, I am just a person from a small village, and my status is really humble. If I didn't cover up my identity, how could I enter the temple... Of course, I know that people like His Highness naturally look down on people from small villages."
The third prince was choked back. He admitted that he had indeed been humiliating the other party before because he came from a small broken place, but when he was exposed by the public, the image he had maintained all along would be shattered!
Looking at the eyes of the people around him looking at him, the third prince became more and more resentful, he gritted his teeth, "Okay, just do it yourself!"
He really wanted to leave now, but the pope was sitting at the head, even the third prince didn't dare to be so arrogant in front of the pope, so he had to retreat to a remote position sullenly.
Now things are almost resolved, and Ji Yunzhu's image is becoming more and more beautiful, it seems that there is no problem at all.
The Pope looked at Ji Yunzhu, and said lightly: "In that case, are you willing to be my disciple?"
... Isn't this a departure from his original plan? !
Ji Yunzhu suddenly realized that he had accidentally come to this step in order to prove his innocence... Now even if he said that he wanted to launch the third prince to become the pope's disciple, it was too late!
Looking at the Pope's handsome face, Ji Yunzhu suddenly turned pale, covered his chest suddenly, lowered his head and coughed up a big mouthful of blood, "...uh...cough cough cough cough..."
He had to admire his acting skills. Since the previous incident, he now said that he could vomit blood if he vomited blood...
The people around saw that Ji Yunzhu was like this, what else could they do, obviously they couldn't hold on to the apprenticeship ceremony, so they rushed to help Ji Yunzhu down.
Ji Yunzhu struggled to look at the Pope, with a strong longing in his eyes, "Pontiff, Pope... Your Excellency... I, wait for my body... to recover... You... must..."
As he said that the corner of his mouth was overflowing with blood again, the person next to him immediately said anxiously, "Just stop talking, His Excellency the Pope will definitely not mind!"
"Hmm..." Ji Yunzhu's eyes showed excitement, and then he fainted.
Everyone couldn't help sighing, it seems that Ji Yunzhu rushed here after his previous injury didn't heal at all, and in the end he was forced by the third prince in various ways, so the old injury relapsed... It's really tragic.
The Pope frowned slightly, but he couldn't ask Ji Yunzhu to come to the ceremony directly with his seriously injured body, so he just gave orders and left directly.
It seems that his plan to test the opponent will also be postponed.Even if the other party is really not that person, the possibility of soul fragments cannot be ruled out.
The main reason is that Ji Yunzhu's body looks over 20, otherwise everyone must suspect that he is his reincarnation...
-
Ji Yunzhu is now recuperating from his injuries.
But in fact, he is fine at all, everything is to avoid reality.Ji Yunzhu himself didn't know how long he should procrastinate, anyway, don't ask for a teacher now.
And it's pretty good to heal his wounds, he can teach Hughes all kinds of magic, and he can also cultivate feelings.Hughes is also very sensible and obedient, taking care of Ji Yunzhu in various ways, as long as it is a close thing, there is no chance for his attendant to take action.
Other people in the temple came to visit Ji Yunzhu and gave him all kinds of gifts. They all felt that Ji Yunzhu was miserable. He could finally become the pope's disciple, but he was injured to such an extent again... How unlucky it is.
Everyone reassured Ji Yunzhu that there would be no problems, and the Pope never broke his promise.
Ji Yunzhu could only show a wry smile.
[Host, it's time. 】
Ji Yunzhu: "Huh?"
[The original protagonist, after all, has to go through the plot, and cannot always be under the protection of the host. It is time for the host to leave. 】
"Is that so?!" He thought he could stay with Hughes all the time, but after thinking about it, he knew that such a good thing was impossible.
[And... in order to conform to the development of the original work, you, the host, must also give the protagonist of the original work a little stimulation, so that he can go on the right path of the plot. 】
"...What kind of excitement does this need?" Ji Yunzhu couldn't help feeling worried.
Originally, he hoped that Hughes would become a sunny boy, but now that he was leaving, he began to worry about whether Hughes would be bullied by others because of his good personality... This is indeed a problem!
Thinking of the well-behaved Hughes, Ji Yunzhu suddenly felt that he might as well be as vicious as in the original work... At least nothing will happen.
[For example, for example... well, this system is just an example, for example, you, the host... die directly in front of him, how about it?Is this exciting enough? 】
Ji Yunzhu: "..." Is this too exciting? ?System, do you really have any malice towards Hughes? !
【The most important person dies right in front of your eyes, isn't it something that many protagonists have to go through! ?Host, you see which protagonist didn't transform after the death of an important person.So the protagonist is absolutely fine! 】
"Hmm... makes sense..." Ji Yunzhu recalled the many works he had seen, and couldn't help but admit it.
Although this is sorry for Hughes, but... there is no other way.
【Host, if you continue to dote on me, the protagonist will be finished!Now you still worry about yourself. 】
"Yeah, what should I do then!" Ji Yunzhu began to struggle with himself, "What should I do after I die?"
[Don't worry about this, you have too many places to be reborn as host. 】
"Okay." Ji Yunzhu sighed.
Now that it's gotten to this point, it seems that he must die.
It just happened to escape or something, and he could avoid being the pope's apprentice, and he could settle the grievances with the Dark Temple... He didn't believe that the people in the Dark Temple would still find trouble with a dead person.
[Host, please prepare well. 】
"Um……"
-
On the other side of the Dark Temple, they are also actively preparing.
This is a task directly ordered by Alia. It is best for them to take the life of Aiwen in the Temple of Radiance within half a month.How dare the people of the Dark Temple dare to slack off in the slightest.
The only trouble is that Aiwen doesn't come out of the temple alive or dead, it can't be assassinated at all!
Even if you go out of the city, there are some chess pieces they arranged in the capital, that is, you really can't get in the Glorious Temple.
But even so, they still made preparations in the capital to ensure that Ji Yunzhu could be killed with one blow as soon as they had the chance.
…………
……
Ji Yunzhu didn't think about the matter of the Dark Temple at all, he was going to be a dead man anyway.
Thinking of leaving, Ji Yunzhu didn't pretend to be sick, but pretended to be recovering from a serious illness, pulled Hughes, smiled and said that he would take him outside to play.
"You haven't visited the capital yet, anyway, I have time now, so I'll take you there."
"En!" Hughes' eyes lit up, he held Ji Yunzhu's hand, and rubbed against his palm like a kitten, looking happy.
In fact, he is not interested in this capital at all, what he is interested in is going out with Ji Yunzhu.
Hughes had already figured out the terrain of the king's capital long before when he was controlling the subordinates of the third prince.
It can be said that it is very simple for Hughes to kill the third prince now.But thinking that this would implicate Ji Yunzhu, he did nothing, but secretly let the puppet poison the third prince's food, preparing to slowly consume him to death.
The two walked out of the temple. In order to avoid being surrounded by people, Ji Yunzhu changed into casual clothes today, but even so, the outstanding appearance of the two still attracted the attention of many people.
It also made the people of the Dark Temple discover Ji Yunzhu's trace in an instant.
They were immediately excited, but the people in the Dark Temple also remembered Ji Yunzhu's tenacious vitality, so they did not act hastily, but prepared a detailed plan.
It was also Ji Yunzhu's first time visiting the capital.
To be honest, there is nothing much to do here, but seeing Hughes happy, Ji Yunzhu felt much better.
When the two passed by a doll shop, Hughes suddenly stopped, his eyes fell on the dolls in the window, and he seemed a bit reluctant.
Ji Yunzhu turned his head to look, and saw a little bear doll inside. Of course, it was nothing compared to modern toys, but it was already a very delicate and lovely doll in such a background.
Ji Yunzhu's heart moved, thinking that although Hughes is in his teens, theoretically he is not suitable for playing with these things... But he has had such a miserable life before, so it is normal for him to be interested in this kind of toys.
So Ji Yunzhu directly bought the doll and handed it to Hughes.
Ah... a gift from 'Mother'.
Hughes' cheeks became flushed, and his face was buried in the plush bear, only revealing a pair of shining eyes.
He had never had such a feeling before, and he didn't know how to describe it. He just felt very warm in his chest, as if there was a hot current rushing through him, and the wind blowing around him was warm for a moment.
I really hope that this moment... can last forever.
then.
Ji Yunzhu died right in front of his eyes.
It seems that things are all right... Ji Yunzhu moved slightly, and Hughes who was sleeping next to him suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him with worried eyes.
"I'm fine." Ji Yunzhu smiled and stroked the top of his hair.
Thinking of the previous events, Ji Yunzhu still had lingering fears. He felt that it was really not easy for him. In such a difficult environment, he managed to persevere tenaciously. Not only did he not lose his vest, but he did not die directly.
Moreover, the people from the Temple of Radiance seemed to have given him healing potions, which made Ji Yunzhu feel that his body was full of energy, and he was in better condition than before going to the ceremony, and most of his injuries had recovered.
Seeing Ji Yunzhu's energetic appearance, Hughes finally calmed down, and threw himself into Ji Yunzhu's arms, rubbed his body, and said in a low voice: "If something happens to the bishop, I will I don't even know what to do..."
"It doesn't matter, as long as I have you waiting here, I will definitely come back alive." When Ji Yunzhu said this, he was absolutely sincere, and then he said: "And I am also very powerful, It won’t be that easy to go wrong.”
Why does this sound like a flag?
The attendant next to him looked at this warm scene and felt very good. After thinking about it, he didn't tell Hughes that he had been missing for a while and didn't return to the temple until it was dark... Maybe it was a child who went out to play mischievously Alright.
"Lord Aiwen." Seeing that the time was almost up, the attendant said, "Master Cardinal has ordered you to go directly to the main hall when you wake up, and we are discussing matters about the ceremony now."
"Okay." Ji Yunzhu nodded, thinking that this is also a necessary procedure.
He said to Hughes: "Wait here obediently, I will be back when the time comes."
"Hmm!" Hughes seemed a little reluctant to let him leave, but finally nodded.
Ji Yunzhu feels that such well-behaved children are really rare now!He is indeed his son, but he is different from ordinary brats!
[Host, do you... still remember that the protagonist is already in his teens? 】
Ji Yunzhu: "..." This kind of thing is not important at all!
The people I met along the way looked at Ji Yunzhu with respectful eyes, completely different from the previous neglect and indifference, as if their impression of Ji Yunzhu had been refreshed.
It is indeed a new one... In the previous ceremony, Ji Yunzhu's heroic behavior has spread, and everyone knows that he sacrificed his life to save everyone. What a kind person he is!It's so narrow-minded compared to their previous behavior.

Soon Ji Yunzhu came to the hall.
Almost all the people who went to the ceremony had already gathered here, and there were still a few high-level personnel of the temple in front, and the young, handsome but majestic Pope stood at the top.
The atmosphere in the hall became a little more lively after Ji Yunzhu walked in, and everyone looked at Ji Yunzhu with extremely friendly eyes.
It gave Ji Yunzhu a feeling that he was very popular... He knew that his previous behavior could increase everyone's favorability, but he didn't expect it to be so successful!

Only Ji Yunzhu showed a relaxed smile, "Ah, judging by the number of holy spirits, I seem to have some here... Although it was affected by the accident later, there are still more than a dozen."
Everyone was shocked, so what does more than a dozen mean? !Before, there were only a dozen or so at most!They themselves only caught one or two holy spirits!
If it weren't for the fact that they had a high degree of affection for Ji Yunzhu, they would probably think that Ji Yunzhu was bragging now.
Only the third prince looked disheveled, feeling that he had dug a hole for himself to jump into.
Ji Yunzhu handed over the storage ring in his hand with the expression of everyone looking at ghosts, "I wonder if this amount is enough for the first place?"
After the man took it, he immediately showed a look of astonishment, "There are seventeen holy spirits!"
This is not to mention the number one this time, even in the ceremonies of the past, this number can be said to be the number one!
Did Bishop Aiwen stab the Holy Spirit's lair?Even after that kind of thing happened, he could still catch seventeen. If this hadn't happened, the number he caught would be unbelievable?
Everyone gasped, and looked at Ji Yunzhu with admiration in their eyes. They didn't expect Bishop Aiwen to be so powerful in this aspect, and they were completely convinced of Ji Yunzhu.
The archbishop in red also nodded, already full of affection for Ji Yunzhu in his heart, this kind of talent is the elite that will support the future of their temple!
Seeing that the archbishop in red was about to announce that Ji Yunzhu was about to become the pope's disciple, the third prince could no longer hold back because of the anxiety in his heart, and immediately said: "I still have objections!"
At this time, the eyes of the people looking at the third prince are not so good. They have already made troubles, so what do they want to do now.
The third prince felt that he was so aggrieved that he was going to die, so he gritted his teeth and threw out his trump card, "You are all so stupid, you think this Aiwen is a good person, he is actually a spy sent by a pagan! "
Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, and the archbishop in red frowned even more, and said: "If there is such a thing, please show the evidence."
If it wasn't for the third prince who said this, he would have been detained directly.
Ji Yunzhu: "...!" Did the third prince really discover something?
"Oh, I said that you were all deceived by him, and you still don't believe it." The third prince sneered and waved his hand directly, and his subordinates immediately brought a stack of materials and distributed them to everyone.
"It can be seen that our bishop Aiwen's resume before he became a bishop was completely forged, and he didn't dare to reveal his past at all." The third prince said: "And it is a great contribution to making him a bishop later , it was a den of heretics. But he didn't investigate at all before this, as if he found it by intuition, and even after that, he hasn't caught a high-level figure of heretics. Isn't that very suspicious ?”
Ji Yunzhu: "..." I thought it was some more powerful evidence, but it turned out to be just these ordinary things!
"And this operation is also, why can the heretics find the place where our ceremony is held?" The third prince said: "It is in a very hidden place. And these heretics, why don't they just execute them directly? Aiwen, who is extremely threatening, has made so many things... I think these things are just a trick they set up to turn their spies into disciples of the Pope!"
"But your evidence is not enough to prove..."
Although most of the people rescued by Ji Yunzhu were determined, some of them felt wavered.As for those high-level figures in the Glory Temple, they really feel that this situation is suspicious.
"I know it's not enough to prove it." The third prince said again: "But we can test it. If Bishop Aiwen is really not a pagan, it can be detected by the test of the god image, isn't it?"
The third prince really felt that there was definitely something wrong with Ji Yunzhu in his heart, and his whole body revealed suspicious points. Even if he wasn't sent by the people from the Dark Temple, he probably was sent by other forces, and he wasn't a good person anyway.
The words of the third prince obviously convinced some people, and the archbishop in red immediately looked over with apologetic eyes, "Although I'm sorry, but this is something that cannot be ignored. Anyway, as long as Bishop Aiwen is fine with you, the statue There will be no warning."
Ji Yunzhu: "Yeah, um." Damn!Things like this are troublesome!
Although Ji Yunzhu firmly swears that his soul is a human being, but after all, his body is still a mixed blood demon, so no matter how he thinks about it, he feels very dangerous...
However, for testing, it is enough to do it in the hall.It's just that this kind of test felt a little humiliating. Many people felt that Ji Yunzhu had been greatly wronged, and they all came forward to comfort him.
Ji Yunzhu himself felt that it was nothing...he had already prepared for this day...and to be honest, he was indeed an undercover agent sent by the demons!
"Everyone don't have to worry about me." Ji Yunzhu said, with a soft light in his eyes, and a bit of bitterness in his words, "I believe that those who are clear will clear themselves. God will definitely prove everything."
Seeing Ji Yunzhu like this, everyone felt more and more dissatisfied.
Soon the inspection ceremony was almost done.
There is a magic circle in the center of the hall, which is said to be able to communicate with the gods, and people who walk into it will unconsciously leak the breath of the soul itself, and it can also detect things like talent and blood.
Ji Yunzhu felt that the person who invented such a BUG magic circle was really a genius, and he was more careful than others in checking household registration.
He took a deep breath and stepped into the magic circle.
Everyone held their breath and paid close attention to everything in front of them.
At that moment, a burst of power was released instantly, and the red-clothed archbishop next to him was overjoyed, "It's a human race. And the soul is also extremely pure, without the breath of heretics."
Ji Yunzhu tried his best to cover up the aura of his body with his soul power. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard the words of the archbishop in red. He actually has a son with the devil...
Ji Yunzhu did not specifically avoid the Pope this time, mainly because his avoidance was too deliberate, as if he had a ghost in his heart?
Besides, when he met the Pope, the Pope was still a child who didn't know anything, would he know what the breath of the soul is? !Definitely totally unrecognizable.
The Pope who was sitting at the top was suddenly startled when he felt the breath of the other party's soul.
He didn't pay much attention to these people's affairs at first, but this kind of breath is too familiar... just like that person.
Although he was only a child back then, the Pope will never forget the past, and the person who taught him tenderly.
"Could it be you?" The pope's eyes fell on Ji Yunzhu.
Of course the Pope heard what the third prince said before, but thinking about it now, these doubts fell on Ji Yunzhu, which made him feel... Could it be that person really?
Such a thing should not happen.
But he couldn't help thinking, couldn't help wanting to believe.Because he missed that person so much... He clearly knew that the other person had died.
Afterwards, when testing talent, Ji Yunzhu's amazing magic talent also shocked everyone. Now, no one thinks that there is anything wrong with Ji Yunzhu... The top management of the organization that does not cultivate such talents must be out of their minds !
The third prince was in a state of astonishment the whole time, "How, how?"
Ji Yunzhu smiled and said, "It seems that you were surprised by this ending... But sometimes, your cognition is not necessarily correct."
"Shut up!" The third prince can no longer maintain his demeanor, rather his mentality has been mostly broken since he was hit by Ji Yunzhu in the ceremony before, "Then how do you explain your identity? !"
The smile on Ji Yunzhu's face suddenly froze, and his eyes seemed to be tinged with loneliness, "After all, I am just a person from a small village, and my status is really humble. If I didn't cover up my identity, how could I enter the temple... Of course, I know that people like His Highness naturally look down on people from small villages."
The third prince was choked back. He admitted that he had indeed been humiliating the other party before because he came from a small broken place, but when he was exposed by the public, the image he had maintained all along would be shattered!
Looking at the eyes of the people around him looking at him, the third prince became more and more resentful, he gritted his teeth, "Okay, just do it yourself!"
He really wanted to leave now, but the pope was sitting at the head, even the third prince didn't dare to be so arrogant in front of the pope, so he had to retreat to a remote position sullenly.
Now things are almost resolved, and Ji Yunzhu's image is becoming more and more beautiful, it seems that there is no problem at all.
The Pope looked at Ji Yunzhu, and said lightly: "In that case, are you willing to be my disciple?"
... Isn't this a departure from his original plan? !
Ji Yunzhu suddenly realized that he had accidentally come to this step in order to prove his innocence... Now even if he said that he wanted to launch the third prince to become the pope's disciple, it was too late!
Looking at the Pope's handsome face, Ji Yunzhu suddenly turned pale, covered his chest suddenly, lowered his head and coughed up a big mouthful of blood, "...uh...cough cough cough cough..."
He had to admire his acting skills. Since the previous incident, he now said that he could vomit blood if he vomited blood...
The people around saw that Ji Yunzhu was like this, what else could they do, obviously they couldn't hold on to the apprenticeship ceremony, so they rushed to help Ji Yunzhu down.
Ji Yunzhu struggled to look at the Pope, with a strong longing in his eyes, "Pontiff, Pope... Your Excellency... I, wait for my body... to recover... You... must..."
As he said that the corner of his mouth was overflowing with blood again, the person next to him immediately said anxiously, "Just stop talking, His Excellency the Pope will definitely not mind!"
"Hmm..." Ji Yunzhu's eyes showed excitement, and then he fainted.
Everyone couldn't help sighing, it seems that Ji Yunzhu rushed here after his previous injury didn't heal at all, and in the end he was forced by the third prince in various ways, so the old injury relapsed... It's really tragic.
The Pope frowned slightly, but he couldn't ask Ji Yunzhu to come to the ceremony directly with his seriously injured body, so he just gave orders and left directly.
It seems that his plan to test the opponent will also be postponed.Even if the other party is really not that person, the possibility of soul fragments cannot be ruled out.
The main reason is that Ji Yunzhu's body looks over 20, otherwise everyone must suspect that he is his reincarnation...
-
Ji Yunzhu is now recuperating from his injuries.
But in fact, he is fine at all, everything is to avoid reality.Ji Yunzhu himself didn't know how long he should procrastinate, anyway, don't ask for a teacher now.
And it's pretty good to heal his wounds, he can teach Hughes all kinds of magic, and he can also cultivate feelings.Hughes is also very sensible and obedient, taking care of Ji Yunzhu in various ways, as long as it is a close thing, there is no chance for his attendant to take action.
Other people in the temple came to visit Ji Yunzhu and gave him all kinds of gifts. They all felt that Ji Yunzhu was miserable. He could finally become the pope's disciple, but he was injured to such an extent again... How unlucky it is.
Everyone reassured Ji Yunzhu that there would be no problems, and the Pope never broke his promise.
Ji Yunzhu could only show a wry smile.
[Host, it's time. 】
Ji Yunzhu: "Huh?"
[The original protagonist, after all, has to go through the plot, and cannot always be under the protection of the host. It is time for the host to leave. 】
"Is that so?!" He thought he could stay with Hughes all the time, but after thinking about it, he knew that such a good thing was impossible.
[And... in order to conform to the development of the original work, you, the host, must also give the protagonist of the original work a little stimulation, so that he can go on the right path of the plot. 】
"...What kind of excitement does this need?" Ji Yunzhu couldn't help feeling worried.
Originally, he hoped that Hughes would become a sunny boy, but now that he was leaving, he began to worry about whether Hughes would be bullied by others because of his good personality... This is indeed a problem!
Thinking of the well-behaved Hughes, Ji Yunzhu suddenly felt that he might as well be as vicious as in the original work... At least nothing will happen.
[For example, for example... well, this system is just an example, for example, you, the host... die directly in front of him, how about it?Is this exciting enough? 】
Ji Yunzhu: "..." Is this too exciting? ?System, do you really have any malice towards Hughes? !
【The most important person dies right in front of your eyes, isn't it something that many protagonists have to go through! ?Host, you see which protagonist didn't transform after the death of an important person.So the protagonist is absolutely fine! 】
"Hmm... makes sense..." Ji Yunzhu recalled the many works he had seen, and couldn't help but admit it.
Although this is sorry for Hughes, but... there is no other way.
【Host, if you continue to dote on me, the protagonist will be finished!Now you still worry about yourself. 】
"Yeah, what should I do then!" Ji Yunzhu began to struggle with himself, "What should I do after I die?"
[Don't worry about this, you have too many places to be reborn as host. 】
"Okay." Ji Yunzhu sighed.
Now that it's gotten to this point, it seems that he must die.
It just happened to escape or something, and he could avoid being the pope's apprentice, and he could settle the grievances with the Dark Temple... He didn't believe that the people in the Dark Temple would still find trouble with a dead person.
[Host, please prepare well. 】
"Um……"
-
On the other side of the Dark Temple, they are also actively preparing.
This is a task directly ordered by Alia. It is best for them to take the life of Aiwen in the Temple of Radiance within half a month.How dare the people of the Dark Temple dare to slack off in the slightest.
The only trouble is that Aiwen doesn't come out of the temple alive or dead, it can't be assassinated at all!
Even if you go out of the city, there are some chess pieces they arranged in the capital, that is, you really can't get in the Glorious Temple.
But even so, they still made preparations in the capital to ensure that Ji Yunzhu could be killed with one blow as soon as they had the chance.
…………
……
Ji Yunzhu didn't think about the matter of the Dark Temple at all, he was going to be a dead man anyway.
Thinking of leaving, Ji Yunzhu didn't pretend to be sick, but pretended to be recovering from a serious illness, pulled Hughes, smiled and said that he would take him outside to play.
"You haven't visited the capital yet, anyway, I have time now, so I'll take you there."
"En!" Hughes' eyes lit up, he held Ji Yunzhu's hand, and rubbed against his palm like a kitten, looking happy.
In fact, he is not interested in this capital at all, what he is interested in is going out with Ji Yunzhu.
Hughes had already figured out the terrain of the king's capital long before when he was controlling the subordinates of the third prince.
It can be said that it is very simple for Hughes to kill the third prince now.But thinking that this would implicate Ji Yunzhu, he did nothing, but secretly let the puppet poison the third prince's food, preparing to slowly consume him to death.
The two walked out of the temple. In order to avoid being surrounded by people, Ji Yunzhu changed into casual clothes today, but even so, the outstanding appearance of the two still attracted the attention of many people.
It also made the people of the Dark Temple discover Ji Yunzhu's trace in an instant.
They were immediately excited, but the people in the Dark Temple also remembered Ji Yunzhu's tenacious vitality, so they did not act hastily, but prepared a detailed plan.
It was also Ji Yunzhu's first time visiting the capital.
To be honest, there is nothing much to do here, but seeing Hughes happy, Ji Yunzhu felt much better.
When the two passed by a doll shop, Hughes suddenly stopped, his eyes fell on the dolls in the window, and he seemed a bit reluctant.
Ji Yunzhu turned his head to look, and saw a little bear doll inside. Of course, it was nothing compared to modern toys, but it was already a very delicate and lovely doll in such a background.
Ji Yunzhu's heart moved, thinking that although Hughes is in his teens, theoretically he is not suitable for playing with these things... But he has had such a miserable life before, so it is normal for him to be interested in this kind of toys.
So Ji Yunzhu directly bought the doll and handed it to Hughes.
Ah... a gift from 'Mother'.
Hughes' cheeks became flushed, and his face was buried in the plush bear, only revealing a pair of shining eyes.
He had never had such a feeling before, and he didn't know how to describe it. He just felt very warm in his chest, as if there was a hot current rushing through him, and the wind blowing around him was warm for a moment.
I really hope that this moment... can last forever.
then.
Ji Yunzhu died right in front of his eyes.
