Chapter 146 -145- The Reporter
Arch Priest Linus was arrested.
He was arrested on the first day the Holy King's Court's evaluation team entered the city of Boulder.
Even if he had prepared for the worst, all the escape routes he had prepared were completely meaningless under the siege of the three Blazing Suns.
Before he could even take out the teleportation scroll in his arms and tear it open, it was snatched away by a cold snort from the Blazing Sun's third-level Trial Knight, and then he was controlled by a hand...
Although they were both Blazing Sun's third-level, the combat power of the Trial Knight was usually far higher than that of a priest like Archpriest Linus.
Not to mention, there were three Blazing Suns around him.
The Archpriest was anxious, and he frantically called the name of the God of Darkness in his heart, but he did not get the slightest response.
It was not until the Trial Knight roughly locked his hands with the Forbidden Magic Chain that he finally realized that the God of Darkness... did not protect him at all.
The high priest's heart almost immediately sank. It was a hot summer day, but it was like falling into an ice cave.
"No! Slander! This is slander! Mr. Chief Evaluator! I want to appeal!"
He said excitedly with his hair disheveled.
"Appeal? Your appeal... should be made to the chief judge of the Crescent Parish in the Holy Judgment."
Priest Rantis said coldly.
Holy Judgment!
The high priest's face turned slightly pale.
He looked dazed and dejected, and the whole person almost lost strength instantly.
Holy Judgment!
The most severe judgment of the Tribunal!
It will only be dispatched after obtaining definite evidence, and every time it is dispatched, the trial and judgment will inevitably make the trial object pay the price!
The disaster that the Rose Society once faced, today... fell on him alone.
At this moment, the high priest finally realized... he was finished.
…
When the holy believers of Bolde went to the cathedral with excitement, ready to watch the grand welcome ceremony of the Holy Royal Court Evaluation Committee led by the high priest, they saw the high priest with a gray face wearing shackles and being pushed out of the cathedral by the trial knights.
This unexpected scene made all the believers stunned.
"What happened?"
"Why was the high priest arrested?"
The believers talked about it, looking shocked.
But soon, Archbishop Landis and the other two Chiyangs came out of the cathedral one after another.
He glanced at the holy believers gathered around the cathedral and whispered a few words to the priest who followed him.
The priest who followed Archbishop Landis nodded, and then went to the square in front of the cathedral, and used the church's amplification array to spread the verdict of Archbishop Bolde to every corner of the square.
Killing thousands of underage girls, acting as a protective umbrella for the Drunken Dream Salon, colluding with the Blood Demon Cult...
The charges were read out one by one, causing an uproar.
The confusion about the actions of the evaluation team soon turned into anger against the fallen priest.
Shock, disappointment, disgust, anger...
The believers were furious and began to curse and abuse angrily:
"Devil! A demon in human skin!"
"Burn him! Burn this dark fallen!"
It was unknown who started it first, but they picked up stones from the ground and threw them at the disheveled high priest, and soon attracted the attention of the crowd.
Stones, rotten food, feces...all kinds of filth were thrown from all directions.
The high priest who was once high and respected has now become the object of everyone's scorn.
The chief priest of Landis watched all this coldly and did not stop it.
What the Holy King's Court hates most is the corruption of priests.
And every fallen priest will not only be subject to the most severe judgment, but all his sins will be made public and scorned by the world.
Perhaps this practice of exposing the darkness will undermine the authority of the Holy King's Court, but it is precisely because of the severe punishment of the Holy King's Court that the church, which has lasted for thousands of years, is still standing.
The angry believers vented their anger at the imprisoned high priest, and more and more citizens came from all directions to ask questions.
Watching the excitement is always a pleasure for mortals, and the priests' pleasure is no less than that of the nobles.
As more and more citizens came to spit, the scene became a little chaotic.
The chief priest of Landis frowned slightly.
He glanced at the high priest who was slumped on the ground with a gray face, ready to end this farce.
But at this moment, a ragged old woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd.
She passed the trial knight who maintained order, rushed to the high priest with red eyes, and screamed hoarsely:
"Devil! You damn devil! Give me back my daughter! Give me back my daughter!"
The woman was quickly stopped by the knight.
But the chaotic crowd gradually quieted down.
"It's the old widow Luna..."
"I heard that her three daughters who depended on each other for survival were kidnapped by Zuimeng Salon one after another..."
"What a beast..."
Looking at the crying woman, the onlookers had complicated expressions and sighed.
At the same time, new old people stood up one after another and cried bitterly.
They were the poor parents who lost their daughters because of the activities of the Blood Demon Cult and Zuimeng Salon in the past ten or even more than ten years.
The bloody sacrifice lasted for more than ten years, and thousands of girls were killed and countless families were destroyed.
Although the noble who organized the Drunken Dream Salon has died, everyone understands that without the protection of the high priest, this bloody and dark event... would never have lasted until now.
The organizer of the event deserves death.
But the umbrella behind the scenes is even more hateful.
Looking at the crying old people, the chief priest of Landis sighed and said:
"Help them up, and then... take Linus away."
The knights and priests quickly helped the old people down, and the high priest Linus was also taken away by the trial knight.
As the chief criminal was taken away, the crowd gathered in the square gradually dispersed.
In the corner of the square, Kara, dressed in ordinary clothes, stood in the shadow of the street tree, looking at the direction of the cathedral in silence.
Beside her, the Duke's son Leno had a complicated expression and sighed:
"I never thought... the protector of Zuimeng Salon was actually the High Priest!"
"No wonder the Blood Demon Cultists in Bolde have not been cleaned up for so many years! It turns out... there is a problem within the church!"
As he said that, he couldn't help but look at the expressionless female knight Kara:
"Kara, I just heard them say... it seems that the High Priest was reported. I don't know who reported it, but they were able to investigate it so clearly."
As soon as he finished speaking, several trial knights from the evaluation team rode over on horses in the distance.
The leader of the team was the deputy chief examiner of the evaluation team, the third-level trial knight of Chiyang, who was also the newly appointed Grand Knight of Bolde.
He came to Kara, showed an appreciative smile, made a cross with his right hand, and said:
"Praise the Holy Spirit! You are Lord Kara, the chief demon hunter captain of Boulder?"
"Lord Kara, thank you for reporting the high priest Linus, so that the royal court can clean up this corrupt scourge in time!"
Ka Ka Ka... Kara reported?
Leno was stunned.
The Blazing Sun Knight looked serious and asked sincerely:
"Lord Kara, the chief judge of the Crescent Parish admires you very much. Are you interested in leaving Boulder City and joining the parish's court?"
There will be another update at twelve o'clock
