Job hunting in another world [Western Fantasy]

Noah was taken into the prison under the Temple of Light by the Knights of Judgment. Noah has always known that there will be cells under the main temples in every city to detain heretics or people who disrespect God.

He hasn't seen it.

This is his first time here, but as a pagan.

They passed through the splendid and holy hall, and Noah was taken to the apse. The priests in the Temple of Light looked at him with a little surprise. After all, the missionary black robe he was wearing was very conspicuous.

"This is the accomplice of the dark cultist last night."

"Why did he betray the Church of Light?"

"This kind of person is more terrifying than the believers of the Dark Church! He has failed the God of Light's grace to him!"

The trial knight snorted coldly, and pushed Noah into an iron door.

The guards on both sides opened the iron gate, and there was a heavy rubbing sound, and the sun shone through the iron gate. Noah stepped into the iron gate, and heard a bang, and the iron gate closed behind him.

The sunlight becomes a narrow slit and disappears.

In front of him was a long corridor, with torches inserted obliquely on the left and right sides, illuminating the square inch of land.There was a damp, musty and bloody smell in the air, and he heard his own footsteps, and faint cries coming from ahead.

After walking through the corridor, there is a square room with a table inside, two bottles of high-concentration wine on the table, several torture instruments hanging on the wall, and a tank of water, which is full of blood. and strange pieces of meat.

Sitting next to the table were two knights of judgment in armor, with a strong smell of alcohol on their bodies. They looked at Noah gloomyly, as if they were aiming at a prey.

"Put him together with that dark cultist first, and have a trial tomorrow." Said the trial knight behind Noah.

The person sitting at the table pursed his lips in disappointment, which meant that nothing could be done about the new sinner today.

"It's about the Church of Darkness, so I won't say more, you should pay attention." The trial knight warned the two of them: "You know how long we have prepared to catch the contact person. If the contact person dies here, you Don't even think about getting away."

"Yes, we know." The two replied slightly drunk.

The Judgment Knight looked at them with some disgust and left. The Judgment Knights serving in the prison are not strictly speaking the real Judgment Knights. They have rarely been trained, have extremely low fighting qualities, and do not have a strong will.

After he left, one of them looked at Noah and said, "Hand over your belongings first."

This is the first step in entering the prison. First, take away the property of the criminal. The two trial knights are already familiar with the road. This is their opportunity to grab the property. The rest is to threaten a little more during the torture. The big head is still outside In the hands of those trial knights.

From their point of view, the missionary in front of them should have been scared out of his wits.

Noah took out the "Sacred Book of Light" from his pocket and said, "The only property I have is this book."

The two trial knights looked at each other and laughed loudly. One of them said, "You betrayed the God of Light already committed a heinous crime. Do you still want to commit the crime of deception and concealment?"

He took a step forward and was about to take out Noah's cuff, where all the missionaries' purses were kept.

Noah turned sideways slightly, avoiding his hand, and the trial knight was stunned. He didn't expect someone to resist, and he sneered: "I still think I'm a missionary—!"

Two trial knights surrounded him together, one reached out to trap Noah, and the other went around behind him.They don't have the slightest guard against the missionaries, and no one understands how weak the missionaries are than the Judgment Knight.

Noah dodged and dodged, and the Judgment Knight in front jumped into the air, then he raised the "Bright Scripture" in his hand high, and threw it at the Judgment Knight's neck. The extremely precise force made the Judgment Knight fainted immediately.

Seeing this scene, another trial knight took out his weapon directly, but before he could react, a violent force hit his head.The trial knight's mind went blank, he spun around dizzily, and fell to the ground.

This short conflict, which is not even called a battle, only happened within two seconds. Noah put the fainted Judgment Knight on the stool, then picked up another dazed Judgment Knight with one hand, and patted him s face.

The trial knight just woke up, seeing Noah with a calm face, his pupils dilated in horror, and he opened his mouth to scream.

Noah slapped it up, and slapped the judge knight's cry for help back into his stomach.

The trial knight was trembling, Noah squatted in front of him, pinched his chin with one hand, and said softly: "Be quiet, if you make any noise, I will kill you."

"If you know what to do, just nod."

The trial knight nodded hastily.

Noah let go of his hand, and the trial knight didn't yell again. He smiled and asked, "Do you think I'm a dark cultist?"

The trial knight shook his head frantically.

Even if he thought it was, even if there were countless innocent people locked up in this prison, and they were charged with various crimes before they died, the trial knight would not dare to say that Noah was a dark cultist at this time.

"No, I am." Noah said.

Judge Knight: "?!"

No, what's the matter? !Dark believers...!

As a relative of a small nobleman, he spent a lot of money to get into this position in the Church of Light. He has always lived by earning some oil and water. He never thought that he would meet a real dark believer!

"Just now, I put a curse on you. No matter where I am, a thought can kill you at any time." Noah smiled heavily, and his black pupils looked at the trial knight faintly: "If you don't believe me, you can try it? "

The Judgment Knight's legs trembled, and he panted heavily. With the violent panting, he felt a tearing pain in his chest, and there was a faint rush of blood in his throat.

He was about to cry out of fear, and looked at Noah sincerely, wanting to express himself.

"I understand. If this is the case, then we can have a good talk." Noah stood up, pinched the shoulder of the trial knight with one hand, and dragged him to the stool to sit down.

Noah stared at him and said, “Do you know what happened just now?”

The Judgment Knight stared at him blankly.

Noah reached out, picked up the wine on the table, brought it to his mouth, and said, "You and your companion were drunk just now, so you had a big fight and then started fighting."

The trial knight understood and nodded quickly. That's right, he had a fight with his companion just now...

"Okay, send me to the cell now, let me see my accomplice." Noah twitched the corner of his mouth: "The liaison of the Dark Church!"

After walking through this small square room, there is another dark passage, with cages on both sides, filled with various people.Noah heard their wailing or crying, but more prisoners had numb pupils and dull expressions, as if they had lost all hope.

The smell of blood and rotting corpses lingered in the air, the wet and sticky soil was underfoot, and mice and bugs hid in the shadows.

And above their heads is the dazzling Temple of Light.

Noah lowered his eyes slightly. He already knew these things.

But I have never seen it with my own eyes, and the pain that I have not seen is always vague and distant, making people feel at ease and stay out of it.

The Judgment Knight led him forward like a tour guide.

They went all the way to the innermost part, and the air became colder and damper, only the chirping noises of rodents were creepy.

"Then I'll go in." Noah strode in. The Judgment Knight hesitated for a while outside and locked the door.

Daniel was the only one in the cell, and he disappeared overnight. He was much more haggard than before, with some scars on his body, wearing a torn robe, and nothing on his body.

When he saw someone coming in, he raised his head for a look, then froze for a moment, and jumped up in surprise.

"It's you?!" Daniel said in disbelief. He looked behind Noah, and the trial knight had already left.

"Of course it's me, Your Excellency Owen." Noah raised his eyelids: "Or, the liaison of the Dark Church?"

Daniel sat down in a daze, and said somewhat dejectedly, "They brought you here too..."

"Someone saw you getting out of my carriage." Noah found a place to sit down and said, "So, you came to me to avoid people's eyes and sneak into the city."

"That's right, I'm the liaison of the church." Daniel wiped his face, dragging the wound on his body, he took a breath: "But this is a trap... They found me quickly, fortunately I I haven’t met the believers yet, so I was the only one who was caught. They didn’t kill me, naturally, because they wanted to get the whereabouts of other believers from me.”

Noah said lightly: "It seems that you haven't said anything yet, and the only dark believer they caught is me."

Daniel was silent.

Noah suddenly asked: "Are you a dark believer?"

Daniel didn't answer right away. After a while, he said, "I'm the contact person..."

"The contact person..." Noah asked: "What you said on the road before was all false?"

"No." Daniel said a little excitedly: "I am indeed a businessman. I have been a businessman since the beginning, and I am still a businessman now. My family is indeed the Owen family who were expelled from the center of the capital. After leaving the capital, , my father died of anger and disease, I inherited his identity, after that, I left everything and became a businessman."

Noah asked softly: "Then how did you become the liaison of the Dark Church?"

"Actually, they don't call themselves the Church of Darkness, but the Church of Chaos. Their god is the God of Chaos, also known as the God of the First Opening of Heaven and Earth." Daniel looked at him, and then looked at the dark surroundings. In the cage of the prison, there is a mournful voice in the ear: "And for me, this is also a business, but what I invested this time is a power hidden in the dark. What I got The reward is the tearing of the Church of Light."
