Chapter 60 The Sea God Temple Comes

Outside Yinghuo Town, several people in blue-striped robes with a white background were sitting on the big-billed gull and looking at the distant town.

"This town looks pretty good, not as dilapidated as expected." A man in white robes said.

"But I still don't understand why you, my lord, choose this town instead of choosing so many big cities."

"I heard that Firefly Town was one of the towns most severely damaged by the beast tide. Almost all the knights died in the battle, and even the lord has disappeared. The person who takes over as the lord now seems to be a child under 20 years old."

"Such a town has no future at all, and it will be occupied by other territories in a short time. You won't get much credit for rebuilding the church here. I suggest you."

"Shut up, Knight Mayor. As guardian knights, we only need to obey the orders of the Holy Maiden. Her will is the direction of our battle. What right do you have to dictate here? Why don't you hurry up and ask the Holy Maiden?" My lord apologizes!"

Another man in white robe interrupted Mayor, and then bowed slightly to the saint:
"I'm sorry, my lord, Mayor has just become a guardian knight not long ago, and he doesn't know the rules yet, so it's inevitable that he speaks a little bluntly, but he is absolutely loyal to you, please forgive him for his recklessness."

Upon seeing this, Knight Mayor also knew that he had said something wrong, so he immediately bowed and apologized:

"I'm sorry, Lady Saint, I shouldn't question your decision, please forgive me!"

"It doesn't matter. I know that Knight Mayor has good intentions and he also thinks about me."

The saint said with a smile, her voice was soft and pleasant like a trickling spring.

"Also, please Knight Commander Moni please stop calling me Saint. I am only one of the three candidates for Saint in the southern diocese. I am not a real Saint yet. You can just call me Elsa."

"Obey, Lord Aisha."

Moni also understands Aisha's meaning. They can naturally call Aisha a saint among themselves, anyway, they are all their own people, and no one will spread it outside.

But it’s better not to call her a saint outside. If the news accidentally spreads to other saint candidates, it will become a “weapon” for them to criticize Elsa.

"I know many of you don't understand why I chose this small town. The reason is actually very simple. Only here can I make a difference."

"Big cities have a large population and a developed economy, but those in power in the cities will definitely be wary of us and even hinder us from preaching. They don't want their power to be shared."

"For example, Guanhai City, which is very close to this small town, is the largest port city in the southeast region. It stands to reason that we should go there. You probably think so too."

"But as far as I know, Guanhai City is now completely under the control of the Merchant Alliance, and even the city owner has been emptied by them, let alone our Seagod Temple."

"Every time the bishop of the Haicheng branch temple reported on his work, he said that the missionary effect was very good. He said that most of the people there believed in our Haichen temple. Could it be that he was lying?"

Mayor said in shock.

"Yes, Archbishop Hatton has sent people to Guanhai City to investigate. The bishop there has been bribed by the merchant alliance, and the reports he reported are all false news."

"Damn it! As a bishop, he actually betrayed his own faith and became a running dog of those businessmen! Then we should go to Guanhai City and punish him, a scum, with religious laws!"

Mayor clenched his fists, wishing he could go to Guanhai City and arrest the bishop right now.

"Knight Mayor, please calm down. The bishop of Guanhai City will be punished sooner or later, but not now. The merchant alliance has become more and more influential in the past two years, and we cannot conflict with them for the time being."

Aisha explained lightly.

In fact, the most important thing she didn't mention was that although the merchant alliance bought the bishop of Guanhai City and slapped the Poseidon Temple in the face, they would donate a large amount of money and treasures to the Poseidon Temple through this bishop every year.

This is the key reason why the Sea God Temple did not take care of this matter. After all, no matter how pure a belief is, it cannot be spent as money. The operation of the Sea God Temple requires a lot of money, and the Merchant Alliance can just provide this money.

Poseidon Temple can turn a blind eye to the merchant alliance's bribery of the bishop, but the merchant alliance must donate a large amount of money to Poseidon Temple every year. There is quite a tacit understanding between the two.

Of course, only some high-level people know about this kind of damage to the reputation of the Sea God Temple, and the low-level guardian knights like Mayor must not know about it.

Aisha only learned about this after she became a candidate for the saint. The archbishop of her faction repeatedly asked her not to go to the muddy waters of Guanhai City.

In that place, let alone her as a candidate for a saint, even if the real saint went there, I'm afraid there would be nothing that the merchant alliance could do.

"Sorry, Lord Aisha, I was the one who was abrupt."

After hearing Elsa's explanation, Mayor apologized to her again.

The Knight Commander Moni next to him glared at Mayor with a look of hatred.

He obviously told him not to question Aisha's decision just now, but he turned his head and forgot. If he was not his disciple, Moni would have kicked him out a long time ago.

"That's why you chose Yinghuo Town. The lord of this town has just taken office not long ago and has not yet controlled all the power. He will not cause any obstacles to our missionary work."

Moni quickly changed the subject.

"That's right, and Yinghuo Town has just been attacked by a beast tide. It is still in a state of being overwhelmed and people's hearts are floating. As long as we help them a little and show some miracles, they will definitely believe in Lord Poseidon crazily. !”

"By then, the power of our branch will even surpass that little lord, and we will become the real person in charge of this town. Such an achievement is no better than the other two candidates being mascots in a big city."

Elsa said with confidence.

"Your foresight is admirable, I believe you will definitely defeat the other two saintess candidates and become the real saintess of our southern diocese, and we will serve as the sharpest sword in your hand and clear all obstacles ahead for you! "

Moni bowed and saluted. He now sincerely admires this candidate for the saint.

He originally thought that Aisha was overwhelmed by the heart of the Virgin, and that she came here to rebuild the branch hall because of the pity of this town destroyed by the beast tide. He didn't expect her to think so much.

But thinking about it, she was able to emerge from hundreds of candidates in the southern diocese and become the only candidate for the third saint. How could she be too kind in her heart.

It seems that he was also influenced by bards and believed that saintesses are pure and flawless.

In fact, the minds of these saintess candidates are much more than they imagined.

But this is also good, these guardian knights have been bound to Aisha, and they belong to a relationship of prosperity and prosperity, and loss and loss.

It is better to follow a thoughtful candidate for the saint than to follow an idiot.

"Thank you for your compliment. I will rely on the help of your guardian knights in the future. Well, let's go down first and see what the current situation of this town is."

"As ordered!"

Aisha and her team directed the Toucoped Gull to descend the altitude and prepare to land.

And the players who were farming on the edge of the territory were the first to discover them.

"Damn it! Brothers, look, a fairy flew down from the sky!!"
