Chapter 199 The Female Marshal’s Crazy Fan

Ofra said goodbye to the rector and left the room quickly. Hao Ren only remembered who this "Marshal Ofra" was after thinking about it for a while.

Except for the church, which has great influence but does not participate in secular power, the Kingdom of Horleta has three highest powers. The leader is the current king Moron, and the rest are the two important civil and military ministers who serve as the king's right-hand man. One is Prince Haverman, the highest administrator of the kingdom, and the other is Marshal Ofra, the most powerful person in the kingdom known as the "Iron General."

Yes, that's the young woman who left just now. She is the most punchable person in the country - in theory.

Hao Ren had heard information about the kingdom's current ruling class from various channels before, and also knew about Marshal Ofra, but he never expected that the other party would be such a young man who looked one or two years younger than him. Woman, when he first heard the title of "The Most Powerful Person in the Kingdom", he thought that the other party would be a big-shouldered, eight-foot villain - like Yzaks, preferably with two hairtails tattooed on his arms.

So now he was completely stunned. It took him a long time to realize that the person who just left the room was the big shot: one of the most powerful people in the country, the president of all the knights of the kingdom, a very young-looking man. A beautiful woman, except for her military style, Marshal Ofra does not make anyone feel any powerful.

"Good boy... big shot," Lily stuck out her tongue, but her sigh didn't stop there. She glanced at Betsy, "You seem to admire her?"

Betsy's head was nodding as if the vibration mode was turned on, and Hao Ren felt like he was getting angry even when standing next to him...

Hao Ren also wanted to inquire about Marshal Ofra, but now seemed not the time. The Rector of Girton next to him was still being ignored by them. He looked at the old man who was emaciated and weak, and seemed to be going back to see the goddess at any time: "What about that, we have finished reporting the situation..."

The old man nodded slowly, his voice seemed to be weaker than before: "Thank you for your information, it is very timely and important. Tomorrow I will send ascetics to the mountains to check the situation and see what happened to the collapse scene you mentioned. That’s it. Just have a good rest in the town tonight, you must be quite tired too.”

Hao Ren nodded, but he still had something to say: "Will those stone men run out of here? We also encountered monsters on the east side of the mountain road. They seem to be going to the grassland. It's best to take more precautions there. .”

"The Knights of the Church and the Knights of the Kingdom will take care of everything," the rector waved his hand. Hao Ren and the others here were just a group of newly arrived mercenaries, so there was no need for him to discuss many things in detail with the group in front of him. Hao Ren also thought of this, so he suppressed more questions in his heart. Vivian thought of something: "By the way, we are going to the Blood Lake. I think we need to get a pass from you?"

"Going to the Holy Lake?" The rector raised his wrinkled eyelids and looked at the group of people in front of him, "Oh yes, you are mercenaries. You should be here for the mission of finding the Holy Temple Orb - and now you are still going?"

Hao Ren suddenly became nervous: "Why, is it blocked now?"

"No, that's not the case," the rector shook his head, "but the situation around the Holy Lake is very unstable these days. Many mercenaries have withdrawn. Coupled with this afternoon's incident, no one knows what the Holy Lake is like. There will be something strange happening near the lake, and it would not be very smart to rush there."

The rector still had some things he couldn't say directly: the disappearance of the Holy Temple Orb happened two months ago. In the past two months, the situation in the Beinz area has been deteriorating. Various abnormal phenomena have emerged one after another. More and more visions have caused the church to The knights and the knights of the kingdom are in a hurry. The orb is now just one of many chaos. To be honest, looking for the orb... has little meaning.

But such words certainly cannot come from the mouth of a devout believer like him.

Nangong Wuyue took a step forward: "We know it's very dangerous, but we have to go there. We still have to find someone."

"Looking for someone?" The rector raised his eyes and looked at her.

"Um, that's it..." Now that the words have reached this point, Hao Ren mentioned the situation of the mysterious woman, "...she is such a person, she should have stopped in this town two days ago. .”

"I don't know who you are talking about, but I can give you a pass." The rector pulled out a filled-in form from a pile of documents on the table and carefully stamped it with two seals, "May the goddess His mercy protects you."

Hao Ren and the others took the pass and exited the rector's room. Outside the door stood the serious man who had led them the way. He seemed to have been waiting here: "I will take you to the Knights' residence to rest."

Since mercenaries have been entering the Beinz area from all over the kingdom in the past two months, there are no hotels or residences in this town to accommodate these outsiders. Therefore, many mercenaries are scattered and placed in the two knights' garrison. .

Lily is always in a carefree state. After coming out of the church, she jumped next to Hao Ren: "By the way, that old man seems very easy to get along with. I thought the rector was a staid old man."

"Ahem, don't say that," Hao Ren coughed twice, but the black-robed monk leading the way didn't seem to have any reaction to what Lily said, "It seems that woman didn't come to Leighton Town."

"Can we go to the Blood Lake area without passing through Layton Town?" Vivian looked at Betsy.

"It's okay," Betsy didn't know why the group of people in front of her were so concerned about a traveler they had never met before, but she still replied seriously, "It's just that you have to go directly through the Twisted Woods from the dangerous area. From the town The official road and church post outside are a relatively safe way to enter the Blood Lake area. There are always people walking on this road, and there are regular patrols and cleanings. There are also long-term warning arrays on both sides of the road, but if you enter directly from other places It’s not that safe in the Twisted Woods—it might be attacked by monsters.”

"I hope nothing happens." Hao Ren sincerely prayed for the unknown visitor from another world, but he just didn't know whether calling Raven 12345's name at the end of his prayer would work. This is why as a The biggest tragedy of the genuine "Saints": Ordinary believers can feel at ease when praying to their God. Regardless of whether God listens or not, at least the believers themselves are safe and bold, but a guy like Hao Ren who chats with God every now and then can't. Dare to be so honest, he feels so empty when he mentions the name of his God. That goddess sister is no more reliable than the husky next to him...

Yzaks had been silent since he entered the church. The atmosphere inside probably made him a little uncomfortable. Only when he came out did he breathe a sigh of relief: "You guys...why would a marshal of a country come to a place like this?"

Hao Ren thought of Marshal Ofra, whom he had just met. Beautiful women can always leave a deep impression on others, especially when this woman has many incredible qualities. However, Hao Ren can be considered a master who has seen the world now. He has no other thoughts about Marshal Ofra. He just feels that such a woman is incompatible with the aura behind her: "Probably to investigate the Saint." It’s about Tang Baozhu’s matter...it seems to be quite a big fuss. I really didn’t expect the marshal of the kingdom to be a young girl.”

"You sound biased!" Betsy seemed to be obsessed with her admiration for Marshal Ofra. She immediately jumped up when she heard Hao Ren's words, "What's wrong with young women?! Are you biased against age? Gender bias? Let me tell you, there are many powerful female warriors. You can see that I am quite powerful - and who told you that Marshal Ofra is young? She is hundreds of years old, okay..."

"Hundreds of years old?!" Hao Ren was startled, "She's not human?"

"Marshal Ofra is a descendant of an ancient species," Betsy looked at Hao Ren, "How closed-minded must the Northern Empire be to have such a weirdo like you."

"Ancient species, oh, ancient species," Hao Ren chuckled dryly, "It's okay, it's okay. It seems you quite admire her."

"Of course I admire her," Betsy's eyes almost glowed green. "All the female mercenaries admire her. She is a legendary female warrior. It is said that she was a famous hero hundreds of years ago. She put down several rebellions across the borders of the kingdom, and She has been the swordsmanship instructor of every crown prince since she served the Horleta royal family. How awesome do you think this is?"

What did Hao Ren know? At this time, he could only continue to laugh: "Hehe, hehe..."

It was almost impossible to communicate with Betsy in this state.
