Path of light

Chapter 157 158. Holy Light

I thought I would have to work until very late, after all, Captain Ralph was not hiding in the big ship Roy mentioned...

I didn't expect the battle to end so quickly.

Captain Relf and Lady Udula had plundered the port of Dorcastletown many years ago.

Both of them are the most wanted criminals in the Castletown Guard, and even the Adventurers Guild has their portraits.

It's just that it happened many years ago. It has been so long that the parchment paper of those portraits has turned yellow, and some places have even been eaten by insects. The color of the dye has faded a lot. It has been so long that many elves have even forgotten this. A crime committed by two pirates.

Instructor Nora held the big sword and stared at Mrs. Yudula who was throwing herself on the ground. Her eyes showed undisguised pity and disgust. Mrs. Yudula had just suffered a lot in the sea...

…

‘Although Ms. Gillian is a fish vendor, her water skills are not only better than Nora’s, she is even inferior to Mrs. Udula, who is a pirate.

Mrs. Udula used Jiu Jitsu to entangle Roy tightly in the sea. Seeing that he was about to suffocate to death, Ms. Gillian jumped out from below like a giant shark in the sea. From Mrs. Udula's perspective In the blind spot, he used a fishing knife to cut the tendon of Yudula's elbow.

Immediately, Mrs. Yudula felt a sharp pain in one hand and lost all her strength.

The water splashed, a shadow appeared beside her, and then her other hand lost strength.

Ms. Gillian grabbed Mrs. Udula's red hair and pulled her away from Roy. Then she pushed Roy out of the sea and swam towards the shore of the pier, completely ignoring Udura who was sinking to the bottom of the sea. Pull the lady.

Ms. Udula struggled to swim up to the sea, but her arms were weak...

If instructor Nora hadn't arrived in time, Mrs. Yudula would probably have drowned here.

Instructor Nora seemed to have a hard time dragging an adult elf in the sea.

Ms. Gillian, who could not stand watching, pushed Roy out of the sea with one hand, grabbed Mrs. Udula's red hair with the other, moved the water with her legs, and swam quickly towards the pier...

After Ms. Jillian came ashore, she casually threw Roy and Ms. Udula on the flagstone of the pier. Without missing a second, she quickly ran back to the stall, soaked all over, while tying up her wet long hair. He tied himself into a ball behind his head and cursed: "Who the hell stole my tuna, are you tired of living?"

"..."

Mrs. Yudula was lying on the ground. The wound on her elbow had stopped bleeding, but the wound had opened outward and turned a little white.

Until two elf guards took off her clothes and locked her up in chains...'

…

"Nora, are you okay!"

The call from a companion on the side brought Nora, who was in a state of confusion, back to reality. Instructor Nora withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Virgil, who was in a state of embarrassment. Gru and Scarlett were in better condition, but Scarlett's face was a little pale. A sign of unprecedented mana consumption.

Seeing the concern shown by Instructor Nora, Magician Scarlett smiled like sunshine and shook a bottle of spiritual potion in her hand.

"Don't worry about me, I still have this!"

Instructor Nora walked up to a few people and said to them:

"Okay, it's done, let's go."

Instructor Virgil stood aside and reminded: "What to do with Eleanor? He hasn't come back yet!"

Instructor Nora said directly: "Send him a retreat signal."

"oh."

Gru, who was following behind, quickly pulled out a signal arrow, ignited it and shot it into the sky.

Then he quickly followed Instructor Nora who was walking in front.

When Roy saw Instructor Nora preparing to leave, he quickly stood up from the stone pier, ran to Instructor Nora, and bowed to thank the instructors:

"Thank you, Instructor Nora, Instructor Gru, Instructor Vergil and Magician Scarlet."

"There is no need to thank us. Go thank Squadron Leader Simpson. He contributed the most tonight..."

Instructor Nora patted Roy on the shoulder and said to him.

…

When she returned to the dock, Mrs. Yudula had been taken away by the elf guards.

The elf guards brought Captain Simpson's white horse over...

Captain Simpson was riding on horseback, and Roy quickly stepped forward to thank him:

"Thank you very much for tonight, Captain Simpson!"

"It is our responsibility to capture Ralph. I would like to thank you for providing us with clues this time. If you encounter any trouble next time, just come to me in the Second Brigade of the Seventh Knights of Ophelia."

After Captain Simpson finished speaking, he waved to Roy and left with a group of elf guards.

Roy looked for Ms. Gillian in the crowd and found that she had run back to the fish stall.

There are a lot of elves in the fish market tonight, and business is very good. Even the mixed-blood elves don’t know whether the protest march will continue tomorrow, but life has to go on. If you don’t buy some fish, you may be hungry tomorrow.

Although there were some accidents, after the incident calmed down, there were no more onlookers at the shallow water dock.

Most of the elves who stayed were helping fish out people on the dock.

High Priest Reed and Jasper were busy treating the injured half-blood elf fishermen on the dock.

This time Gray Dwarf Ralph killed a dozen half-blood elf fishermen on a medium-sized fishing boat. Their bodies were fished out and laid out in a long row on the dock. These dead half-blood elves were all wrapped in linen.

Although elves can live up to 800 years old, it is difficult for them to reproduce.

The life of every elf is extremely precious, which is one of the reasons why elves particularly respect life.

The half-blood elves carried the injured fisherman to the dock in a hurry.

When they encounter someone who is seriously injured, they will call out to High Priest Reed...

In the eyes of the elves in the Lower City, High Priest Reed is much more reliable than the priests of the Moon Temple.

Those Moon Temple priests walking on the road, even if they encounter injured mixed elves, most likely will not stop to treat them.

But High Priest Reed can.

As long as he sees it, he will definitely stop and treat the injured elves.

During the recent period, the Holy Glory has not appeared in the Temple of Liberty. Many elven believers failed to get a response from the goddess when they prayed, so they became disheartened and left the Temple of Liberty.

Now the mixed elves saw High Priest Reed kneeling on the stone slab, carefully treating his injured companions. Although his face was a little tired, his eyes were particularly focused.

When a ray of holy light falls, the injury will be healed.

Something seems to have been touched in the hearts of these mixed-blood elves...

yes!

The Holy Glory is something that only the priests can have access to. They only need to get the help of the priests in the temple.

For a moment, the mixed-blood elves standing on the dock all looked at High Priest Reed, who was silently treating the injured elves...

…

Roy also ran over and squatted beside High Priest Reed to help.

He was soaked all over, and water was dripping from the cuffs and trousers of his robe.

Mrs. Yudula also scratched two wounds on her face, and the skirt of the trainee priest's robe was also torn open.

However, this did not seem to affect his treatment of the injured elves. After the work on the dock was finished, the injured mixed-blood elves were carried home by relatives and friends. The dock was empty, leaving only some water stains and blood stains.

High Priest Reed also returned to the temple with Roy and Jasper.

The three of them returned to the door of the temple, only to find that Abt was still sitting in the concierge outside the gate. A candle was lit in the concierge. Abt was sitting inside, with his waist bent, and he was reading the pages attentively. A picture book.

High Priest Reed walked over and knocked on the glass outside the porter's window.

Abbot heard someone knocking on the glass outside and looked up...

It was actually High Priest Reed standing outside the window. He was startled and quickly covered the map on the table with sacred prayers. Then he ran out of the concierge and opened the door for High Priest Reed.

High Priest Reed clearly saw Abbot flipping through the map, but he didn't say anything and just nodded to Abbot. warned:

"Abut, you should go to bed early. There is no need to stay here all night."

"Yes, Great Priest."

Abbot responded honestly.

When High Priest Reed entered the temple, Abbot said hello to Roy, but he still didn't want to talk to Jasper.

…

Roy returned to the dressing room in the backyard of the temple, changed into his usual clothes, and threw the wet trainee priest's robe into the tub.

He planned to wash the trainee priest's robe, otherwise he would have nothing to wear when he came to the temple tomorrow.

Roy carried the wooden basin to the well in the backyard, picked up a bucket of water from the well, and poured it into the wooden basin.

Jasper also came to the well carrying a large tub of clothes. The way he washed clothes was different from Roy's. After he filled the tub with water, he rolled up his trousers and jumped into the tub, constantly washing the tub with water. Foot step.

Roy squatted beside the tub and kept rubbing his robe with his hands.

Each of them washed his own.

At this time, Roy heard Jasper say:

"Roy, I have thought about it. I must go to the Dark Land to pursue my faith. I hope I can find the Holy Glory in the Dark Land this time. If you and Abt don't want to go to the Dark Land, then they can stay. The lower town of Castletown actually needs a temple where priests can stay.”

Roy smiled and said nothing. He didn't say that since the temples have been dismantled, how could there still be priests...

After washing the clothes, hang the robes on the clothesline to dry.

Roy packed up the wooden basin, then said hello to Jasper at the well, and walked towards the gate of the temple.

Abt had been waiting at the gate. When he saw Roy walking out of the temple, he stuck his head out of the concierge and called out to Roy.

"Roy!"

"What's the matter, Abt?"

Roy stood next to the concierge and asked Abt.

He thought Abt wanted to ask: What happened tonight!

Abbot didn't know it yet, but the three of them went out at night to capture Captain Relf and Mrs. Udula at the port dock.

Abbot was a little hesitant, but still said to Roy:

"I have something to ask you..."
