When the Saint comes, she does not collect food

Although the situation seemed unchanged, Horn's mood was much better on the way back to his bedroom than before.

He understood somewhat why those villains wanted to take someone with them before they died.

Seeing the tense faces and sweaty foreheads of Tomley and others around him, Horn's gloomy outlook on the future even dissipated a little.

"You really didn't have to do this," Grampwen said to Horn in a low voice, his tone even a little frantic. "We're on the same side, don't you understand?"

"Who's on the same side as you?" Horn's face was full of gloating smiles.

"Don't say such angry words," Tomley said through gritted teeth in a low voice. "I know that what we did put you in danger, but you have to think about us.

After this is over, you can naturally take the two witches and leave, the Mystery Society will protect you.

But we are different, our industries have not yet been transferred to Black Serpent Bay, what you are doing... Oh dear!"

Why would the Mystery Society protect me if I took two witches and left?

Seeing Tomley looking distressed, Horn frowned, he felt that there might be something hidden, but he didn't trust these people and didn't want to ask actively, for fear of exposing something.

Wearing the Pope's holy robe, Horn was escorted back, and he finally had the leisure to look at the appearance of this Gulag Monastery.

The essence of a monastery is actually not much different from a church. Churches are mostly in towns, manors, and villages, while monasteries are mostly in the wild.

Therefore, monasteries have security needs. They not only build monasteries on mounds and terraces, but also build towering walls around the church.

From the gate tower, there is an avenue leading to the Gulag Church, with flower beds on both sides.

On the left side of the avenue, in order, are the bell tower, vegetable garden, and warehouse, and on the right are the livestock shed, mill, bathhouse, and herb shop.

To return to Horn's bedroom in the church, you have to pass through a courtyard garden covered with grape vines and morning glories, and a corridor composed of shrubs and branches.

Horn raised his head, and over the mutually shaded branches, he could still see two corner towers standing on both sides of the church, and between the church and the corner towers was the monastery's cemetery.

Many pious and wealthy believers, mainly armed farmers, are buried here.

Horn had just passed through the shrub corridor and came to the cemetery when a flash of lightning flashed before his eyes.

"Let me pass, you lowly and despicable knight!"

"For the sake of Messilah, please do not say such rude words, otherwise I will violate the knight's oath and attack you, a weak woman."

Although many parts of the knight's armor had been reddened by lightning, he still stood in place, not willing to give way.

"The knight's oath? I find it laughable when you talk about the knight's oath!" Jeanne was enraged, not knowing what had been touched. "Knights should all die, they are all liars, I'll say it again, get out of my way!"

"Jeanne!" Horn called out quickly.

"Brother Horn!"

Seeing Horn, Jeanne immediately dispersed the lightning in her hand and ran quickly towards Horn.

Behind her, Carrie lowered her head like a primary school student who had done something wrong, with a bump on her forehead, pouting her lips, and tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes.

"Sister Jeanne bad..."

Walking to Horn's side, Jeanne pushed Tomley and others away and directly hugged Horn horizontally in her arms.

Horn's head hit her chest, making a sound like metal colliding.

So hard, Horn cried out in pain.

"It's really great that you're okay."

Hearing this voice, Horn was shocked, it was clearly Bursac's voice.

Looking out from Jeanne's side, Bursac and the remaining child soldiers, as well as the trembling butcher priest Cosette and the little monk Armand, were all at the church gate.

Shouldn't they be in Red Mill Village? How did they get here?

Looking at Jeanne with a questioning gaze, Jeanne said with a smile: "Cosette and other villagers saw that you had not returned for a long time, and it happened that a monk was out exploring and was docked in Red Mill Village, so they came over by boat."

"Originally, we were thinking of saving you, but unexpectedly, you have already been elected as Pope, indeed the true grandson of the Holy Father, the person appointed by Messilah." Bursac's eyes towards Horn showed more awe than before.

But Horn narrowed his eyes and turned his gaze to Tomley standing on the side.

The knight also walked over, staring straight at Horn, especially the golden crown on his head.

"Your Holiness, let me introduce you, this is the Knight Commander of the Gulag Monastery - Danji Herd, the Water Wheel Knight."

The so-called Temple Knight is a knight conferred by the church, and belongs exclusively to the church's armed forces.

In a sense, the Temple Knight is actually an armed monk, rather than a knight in the secular sense.

The knight in front of him should be the person sent to Duldav to protect him.

After all, Thousand River Valley is not like other places, with Mystery Society bandits everywhere, and the security is only slightly better than the neighboring Gravel Plains and Black Serpent Bay.

Listening to Grampwen's introduction beside him, Horn took a look and saw a middle-aged knight.

He was clearly tall, but he was hunched over, his dark mustache was as hard as steel, but above the mustache was a thick red bulbous nose.

At this moment, he pushed the bird-beak-shaped mask to the top of his head, but he did not mean to salute Horn.

"Oh, you are a titled knight?" Horn looked at this bulbous-nosed knight.

Titled knights are actually the most outstanding group of knights among the decree knights, so that the royal family can confer them an exclusive knight title.

For example, the Flute Knight Lorson a hundred years ago, and Prince Kondé, the Lion Knight of the Leia Kingdom.

"No, this is just a nickname given to me by others." A trace of embarrassment appeared on Danji's face. "Your Holiness, your people are now starving, I would like to ask you..."

"What has happened to His Holiness's illness? You still want to bother him? Knight Danji, please step aside, we are going to send His Holiness back to his room to rest."

Before Danji could respond, Tomley and others winked and squeezed past Danji, and crowded Horn towards the church.

Hiss, these people don't seem to be a group, there is an opportunity.

"Wait." Before he could think too much, Horn suddenly called out, and Jeanne immediately stopped.

Of course, the others could not stop Jeanne and could only stop helplessly in place.

"This Temple Knight Danji is responsible for protecting my safety, how can he just be an ordinary knight commander?" Horn rubbed his aching nose. "In the name of the Pope, you will form a Holy Grail Knight Order, you are the Grand Master, and the Holy Maiden Jeanne will serve as the Knight Commander. This Knight Order has the same status as the Three Great Knight Orders."

The knight was stunned for a moment, then stiffly touched his chest and bent over, without even kneeling on one knee: "Yes, Your Holiness."

Jeanne glared at him unhappily and continued to hug Horn towards the bedroom.

Nestled in Jeanne's arms, Horn was still silently thinking about a way out, until he was almost at the bedroom door, a wave of dizziness came again.

Horn once again felt his body temperature gradually rising and his vision gradually blurring.

Almost forgot the business, biting the tip of his tongue, forcing himself to wake up, Horn knocked on Jeanne's chest.

"Why are you blushing? Cough cough, I have something to say to you..."

Putting his mouth to Jeanne's ear, Horn said in a low voice: "The Holy Father gave me a good prescription in a dream, which can solve my pain, you need to take forty pounds of garlic... mash it into mud... ferment for five minutes, then put it into a distiller to distill... until golden liquid flows out... understand?"
