Don't call me evil god

Chapter 98 Be careful of Skate

Brandon took his two companions, the shield warrior and the priest, who had a good relationship with him, and left to the Blood Roulette to gather intelligence.

Pet also started to return to the upper city with Gale, Miranda and others.

The atmosphere in the streets of the lower city was much better than when Pet first came with Rena.

Because the gang members who dared to run rampant on the streets in the past were almost extinct.

Other gangs were broken up, conquered and integrated by the Blood Fang Gang;

The lone ordinary members of the Blood Fang Gang were used as experience packs by the believers of the Seeking Knowledge Sect.

Without gangsters who would rob people on the road, the sense of security of ordinary people naturally improved a lot.

However, the stench from the sewage in the lower city air still lingered. No matter how long it took, Pete could hardly get used to it. He subconsciously covered his nose and cast the [Purification] trick on himself as usual.

Gale's actions were the same as Pete's, and he also cast the [Purification] trick on Miranda and her three companions.

The homeless people who were seen from time to time on the street were wearing clothes made of pieces of cloth with stains and blood. They were thin and haggard, with rough and dry skin, and their exposed bodies were covered with rashes and scars.

The weak and hoarse begging voices of the homeless reminded Pete that he was in the chaotic lower city of Green Harbor, not the upper city where money was like a paradise on earth.

The more Miranda looked at these homeless people, the more entangled she became.

When she first came to the lower city, she was shocked by what she saw with her own eyes.

But later, there were the Blood Fang Gang and the Seeking Knowledge Sect, which made her have no time to think about the homeless.

Now that she had free time again, she couldn't help asking Gale.

"Mr. Gale, I... don't understand."

"Isn't the Glorious God Church providing help to the poor homeless people in the lower city? Even if there is no income, at least you can go to the church to receive free relief meals and clothes. Why do they..."

Gale almost couldn't hold back the aristocratic expression management.

He is now sure.

Miranda Warren, the candidate priest of the Crusaders, is not only innocent, but also very naive about the world!

It can even be said that she is the kind of person who really believes the words used by the Glorious God Church to promote and beautify itself, and really believes that the world is as harmonious and beautiful as described in the church's propaganda, and everyone who needs help can get help!

Gale, who is also a border noble, understood a truth very early:

This world is not so beautiful.

With the conditions of his small noble family, soft and sweet white bread is usually used as the staple food;

But ordinary people in the town can't afford to eat expensive food like white bread, and can only buy those rough but cheaper black bread.

Is it because these ordinary people don't like to eat white bread?

Even the difference in regions will appear.

For the same work, the remuneration offered in Green Port will be 2 to 3 times that of the border town of the Kingdom of Reyak.

Is it because the people working in the town don't want to get more remuneration?

The same reason.

Do these homeless people not go to the church to receive relief because they don't want it?

Obviously not!

Gail didn't even have to think about it. It must be because the Glowing God Church didn't plan to help so many homeless people!

Gail had heard about the disorder in the lower city of Green Harbor and the large number of homeless people, so he only believed a little bit of the Glowing God Church's propaganda about helping the poor homeless people.

He believed that the church was willing to fulfill its doctrine to do good deeds and help others;

But Gail didn't believe like Miranda that the church could really help all those in need.

It should only be able to help a small part of the homeless people.

After explaining the reason to Miranda, Miranda's face was full of disbelief.

"How could this be?"

"Didn't Bishop Skate say in his speech that under his guidance, the homeless people in the lower city have basically been properly resettled, and he has made outstanding contributions to curing Green Harbor's stubborn diseases?"

"Lord of the Glowing God! This is obviously a huge lie. He violated the Glowing God's doctrine!"

Gail couldn't help but sneer.

"Bishop Skate?"

"The guy who can do anything for his own political achievements and promotion?"

"Can you believe what he says?"

Seeing Miranda's confusion, Gail asked back:

"Ms. Warren, have you ever thought about this question?"

"[Detect Evil] is clearly issuing a warning, why are you the only ones who have come to the lower city to investigate until now?"

"Normally speaking, as long as there is a red light warning, with Bishop Skate's character, he shouldn't let it go so easily, right?"

Miranda couldn't refute it.

She knew Bishop Skate's temper better than Gail.

According to her previous experience, when the [Detect Evil] spell issued a warning, either an item related to the evil god or a person contaminated by the evil god appeared in the detection range.

The former is easy to say, after finding the relevant items, they can be destroyed or sealed for safekeeping.

The focus is on the latter.

Just like the possibility that Miranda thought of when she first saw the people of the Seeking Knowledge Sect.

The people polluted by the evil god may not be the cultists who surrendered to the evil god, but normal mercenaries and adventurers. It's just that when they fought with various monsters in the wild, they were infiltrated by the pervasive evil aura, causing the divine arts to issue a false alarm.

Generally speaking, as long as they rest in peace for a period of time, the pollution caused by this infiltration will gradually subside and dissipate.

But Bishop Skett's attitude towards these people was very rough.

The main one-size-fits-all approach.

The divine arts issued a warning, and even if the other party was not a cultist, he would expel these people and force them to leave the scope of Green Port, on the grounds that "carrying the polluted aura of the evil god, there is a possibility of endangering the safety of Green Port."

This time the situation was very abnormal.

Although the warning of the divine arts was getting more and more serious, Bishop Skett always looked indifferent, and even took the initiative to prevent the Crusaders from sending people to the lower city to investigate!

"I guess the reason is probably that the term of office of Bishop Skett in Green Port is about to end!"

Gail mercilessly said his previous speculation.

"According to his 'achievements' in Green Harbor over the past three years, he is considered excellent and can be promoted and transferred back to the capital of Reyak."

"But if cultists who attempt to bring the threat of evil gods appear in Green Harbor in the last few days, he will have to stay here for at least another year to observe and eliminate the subsequent impact."

"Compared to this, he might as well suppress the matter for the time being. Anyway, as long as he can drag it out for a few days, the threat of evil gods brought by the cultists will not completely erupt and intensify, and he can just pat his butt and leave!"

"In short, in my opinion, Bishop Skett is probably not a good person. I suggest that Ms. Warren be more careful after returning to the church and don't be deceived by that guy."
