"Don't even think about it, you dirty, ugly pig-headed man." The third young lady said such insulting words regardless of her two sisters' attempts to stop her.

"One" Ignoring the self-righteous Third Miss, Tian Ye read the number aloud.

Tiechui immediately raised his weapon, and so did Harun and Tian Ye's men. The three level three warriors in the Magician Guild were all slightly injured by the wolf fangs. The rest, except for the five level two warriors, were of no use to this huge orc army.

"two"

All the warriors in the entire magician team took a step back.

Just as Tian Ye opened his mouth to read the number three, the three older twin sisters in the team finally spoke.

"Surrender, please don't hurt us." The eldest of the three sisters said this calmly and rationally.

As soon as he finished speaking, two fifth-level magicians came to Tian Ye and knelt on the ground.

"Fifth-level Demon King Gray, Fifth-level Demon King Limt greet the High Priest."

The slave contract magic circle prevented them from going against Tian Ye's wishes and from having any intention of killing Tian Ye again.

"Oh, by the way, your fourth-level magician is still there. Who will bring him over?"

"I go".

Tiechui leaped over to the fourth-level magician Lester, picked him up and brought him to Tian Ye. Tian Ye cast the contract magic again. The fourth-level Lester could not resist Tian Ye's mental power at all and successfully completed the magic contract.

After seeing this scene, a large number of knights and the three sisters who surrounded the Magician's Guild were shocked. This pig-headed man actually used the slave contract magic circle to directly subdue the three senior wizards of the Magician's Guild.

Although the fifth-level magicians were not the most powerful in the Magician Guild, they were still the backbone of the Guild. The direct loss of two fifth-level demon kings was a huge blow to the Magician Guild.

"Lester meets the High Priest."

Lester calmed himself down, then knelt on the ground and saluted Amano.

"Get up, Lester, lock all these people up in the prison in the New City Lord's Mansion, and you will guard there personally. Otherwise, I don't think these third-level warriors will be honest."

"Yes, Your Excellency the Respected Priest."

Lester seemed unusually respectful. He had to do this because he had fought with Tian Ye before. If he showed any sign of rebellion, he might be the first indentured slave to die at the hands of Tian Ye. But he was wrong. Tian Ye would never do that and Tian Ye didn't care about him at all.

In this battle, Tian Ye obtained two fifth-level magicians, a fourth-level magician, and also captured the daughter of the president of the Magicians' Guild. This harvest was simply too good to be true!

Spring arrived as promised. The snow on the roof was dripping to the ground under the gradually warming sun. Every drop of snow slowly seeped into the ground, slowly melting the frozen hard soil bit by bit.

Strong winds with slight dust were blowing continuously. It had been like this every day for the past few days. This was also a reflection of the arrival of spring. The further south one went, the more heat one could feel. Although the imperial capital was not in the southernmost part of the empire, but in the eastern part, Longwei City had already ushered in the feeling of early spring. The small buds on the trees were already struggling to slowly drill out of the leaf buds.

Torreskia and Hyde rushed back to the imperial capital with the incomplete expeditionary force of the Temple of Light. When everyone saw the situation in the imperial capital, they were all shocked. The entire imperial capital was heavily guarded. The city wall, which originally had only a few soldiers on guard, now had a soldier guarding every two meters. Nearly a hundred soldiers gathered at the city gate, and they conducted strict inspections, body searches or interrogations on the passing merchants, nobles, ordinary people, and slaves, and no one was spared.

From time to time, fast horses ran out from the city gate and scattered in all directions. They were obviously messengers?

"What's going on? Why is there a sudden curfew?"

Torresnia was extremely shocked. Such a scene had not been seen in the imperial capital for decades.

"Something big must have happened. Let's hurry back to the Temple of Light to ask."

Hyde realized the urgency of the matter and immediately led the people of the Temple of Light to the city gate.

When the soldiers at the city gate saw this team coming, dozens of them immediately came over to greet them?

"Who are you?" asked the captain of the soldiers in the team.

"We are from the Temple of Light, and we have just returned from hunting vampires."

Although His Majesty the Emperor is dissatisfied with the Temple of Light, in the hearts of some grassroots people, especially in the imperial capital, the Temple of Light still has a certain degree of popularity. The reason is that the Temple of Light often treats diseases that ordinary people cannot treat. This has won the support of the grassroots people, so the soldiers are still relatively restrained.

"You are the master wizard from the Temple of Light. The imperial capital is now under martial law. All people entering and leaving must register. Please come here to do a simple registration."

Hyde also cooperated with the soldier to the registration office for a simple registration, and then led the team back to the headquarters of the Temple of Light.

When the team just entered Longwei City, the Pope got the news and immediately sent people to greet them. Although some people knew about this, Longwei City was already in a state of panic at this time. The news of a war had spread in the city, and everyone was uneasy. In fact, people are like this. Some things are strangled in the cradle and no one will talk about them, but once some things are exposed, many people will follow up and make various remarks, misleading ordinary people.

The Pope personally came out of the Papal Palace and led a team of nearly a hundred people to meet Torreschia's team.

The two teams finally met in the square of Longwei City. The Pope got out of the car and walked in front of Hyde and Torreschia. When he saw the current situation of the whole team, his face was also shocked. The team sent out was more than 500 people.

When he came back, there were less than 100 people, and he did not find Thors in the team. The Pope, who had prepared many polite words, was speechless for a moment.

"Your Highness, I think we should go back to the Temple of Light and discuss some things first!"

Hyde was obviously in a bad mood. He used a sentence to ease everyone's embarrassment and covered up the situation. Then the two teams gathered together and followed the Pope to the team. The tall and strong knight helped the injured knight behind him and rushed back to the main hall of the Temple of Light.

After arranging everyone's affairs, the Pope met with Hyde and Torreschia in a side hall of the main hall.

"Tresnia, Hyde, please tell me what happened in detail. Also, where is Thors?"

Until now, His Holiness the Pope is unwilling to acknowledge Thors' death. As a declining Temple of Light, a demon-level existence, although cannot improve the status of the Temple of Light much, but a fifth-level strongman is also the backbone of the Temple of Light. Losing a strongman is a huge loss for any major force, let alone the Temple of Light that can no longer afford to be hurt.

"Your Holiness, this is what is happening."

Hyde and Torresnia simply recounted to the Pope everything that happened along the way, word by word, and emphasized the help they gave them in the pig-headed field outside the Holy Light City. The Pope's eyes kept twitching as he listened, and he could sense the danger through their words.

"This time, I originally thought it was a simple task to eradicate the vampires, but it turned out that our Temple of Light paid such a heavy price! I have to take the main responsibility for this."

The Pope looked at the two of them with a sad look in his eyes and said, this generation of Pope did not have much power to begin with, and this time he lost most of it, how could he not be sad.

Seeing the sad scene on the Pope's face, he, Treskia, was the first to speak.

"Although I am also very sad about Thors' death, I think Your Holiness should think more about how to expand the power of our Temple of Light. If the Temple of Light suffered a heavy loss in this annihilation of the vampires, Your Holiness, please think about it. Think about whether this also indicates that the Temple of Light is weak. The loss of just a few hundred people at a time has caused serious damage to our Temple of Light."

"Torresnia, please watch your words," the Pope's attendant Nadal, standing aside, scolded.

"What's wrong with my words? I was just stating a fact. Don't I even have the courage to tell the truth?"

Torresnia had been traveling for many years and his hot temper had always been suppressed, but this did not mean that as a fifth-level demon king, he would be scolded by a servant of the Pope who was below his level.

"You must know that His Holiness the Pope has been working diligently for the development of the Holy Temple of Light of the Church of Light. What else do you want him to do to be satisfied?"

Nadal has been with the Pope for many years and has acquired a certain amount of arrogance. He cannot allow anyone to speak disrespectfully to the Pope.

"Did I say that the Pope did something wrong? I just want the Pope to express his condolences. Besides, do you have any right to speak here?"

Torresga stood up and pointed at his son's nose.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing, both of you." Seeing that things were getting worse, the Pope immediately spoke out to stop them.

After hearing what the Pope said, the two had no choice but to give up. Torresga sat down again and glanced at Nadal, his temper was unbearable.

Nadal was also not to be outdone. Although his martial arts strength was not as strong as Torresnia's, he was a minister of the Pope after all, so Torresnia would probably not do anything to him.

"Your Holiness, what Pope Torreschia meant is that we should consider increasing the manpower of the Temple of Light instead of being overly sad about Thors' death."

Hyde also stood up and said to the Pope.

"Well, this is easier said than done. The Longwei Empire has restricted the development of the Temple of Light for a long time, and it is still very difficult to develop believers in the Longwei Empire."

As Nadal said, the current Pope of the Temple of Light is relatively diligent. Whenever there is a large gathering or some event, the Pope will show up in person to show his presence and win more believers. However, under the overt and covert suppression of the Longwei Empire, the development of the Temple of Light is still slow.

"Your Highness, we have a candidate. I have mentioned it to you before. What do you think? By the way, Thors also agreed when he was alive."

When hearing this, there was no change in the Pope's expression, but Nadal was shocked. He obviously understood the meaning of the two people's words.

"You two are talking about that pig-headed man." The Pope was obviously not stupid and guessed who they were talking about.

"that's it".

Hyde answered directly in the affirmative.

"Well, to be honest, there are some things I don't want to hide from you two. I have already sent Nadal to investigate. Other things are easy to deal with, but the character of this pig-headed man is really not commendable. He even insulted Nadal. This is something I cannot tolerate."

His Holiness the Pope looked at Nadal and said.

"I also heard about this from that pig-headed man. Your Holiness the Pope must not believe one-sided words. First of all, Nadal put himself in a superior position and talked to Pig Old Eight. Otherwise, I think this pig-headed man still has better etiquette, but that's not the point. The point I want to tell Your Holiness the Pope is that now this pig-headed man already owns three cities: New City, Holy Light City, and Beast God City. Although the population of Beast God City is not large, the population of the other two towns is over hundreds of thousands, or even reaches millions. If branches of the Temple of Light are established in these two large cities, then I think with the development capabilities of the Temple of Light, it will surely soon usher in the second spring of the Temple of Light."

Hyde said longingly.

Torresya Torresnia continued.

"Not only that, Your Holiness, you must know that this pig-headed orc is also a fourth-level strongman, and the army under his command is as high as 40,000 to 50,000. Even a big lord cannot do such a force. This Pig Old Eight in the north is already a force that can get his support. Even if the emperor of the Longwei Empire wants to move against us, he will have to think twice."

Torreskia always knows how to grasp the key points of his words. The reason why the Temple of Light cannot develop is mainly due to the suppression of the country. If there is a force supporting the Temple of Light, then the royal family of the Longwei Empire will be much more restrained when doing this.

"Are the words said by the two demon kings of Nadal true? What exactly happened at that time?"

When His Holiness the Pope heard what the two demon kings said, he turned around and questioned Nadal.

"Your Majesty, I represent your dignity."

"Shut up."

When His Holiness the Pope heard this, he had already guessed that what Hyde and Torreschia said was true. It must be that the attendant beside him acted condescendingly, which made the pig-headed man disgusted, so the pig-headed man drove him out.

"What did I tell you when you went there? We are going to check his character, not to interrogate a prisoner. You actually treated such an important matter as a joke."

The Pope stood up angrily and slapped Nadal in the face. This was the first time the Pope hit his close aide who had followed him for decades.

Nadal looked at the Pope in shock. Although he was the Pope's attendant, he was also a fourth-level strongman.

"I didn't do anything wrong?"

The attendant was still quibbling.

"Don't you know you're wrong? Can't you see clearly the predicament our Radiant Temple is in now? Do I still look like a pope? We want to win over as many people as possible who are willing to be close to us. You are shutting them out and hindering the restoration of our Radiant Temple."

At this time, a powerful pressure came from the Pope in all directions. Torreschia and Thors retreated more than ten steps, activated the protective shield and stood up. The attendant Nadal was directly pressed to the ground by this pressure and could not move. The expression on his face showed that he was in great pain at this moment.

Although His Holiness the Pope is young, and everyone seems to have never seen Him take action in these years, they seem to have forgotten one thing: His Holiness the Pope is a sixth-level strong man.
