5 min read1,357 words
Holy Wing Islands, Hira Territory.
The Baisha sailed along the Longxian River, all the way northward towards the
capital. After the whirlpool storm in Azure Fort, any weather can make
everyone feel windy and sunny. Whether it is the crew or passengers, they
prefer to lean against the fence on the bow deck and enjoy the scenery on both
sides of the river bank when nothing happens. And that storm that almost sank
the entire harbor to the bottom of the sea, now seems to be just a phantom in
memory.
There are also many ships on the river that go to and fro between the north
and the south, but most of them are inland river boats, much smaller than the
Baisha. In addition, the flag flying on the Baisha did not belong to any
country in the West Pole, so it attracted a lot of people to watch. If it were
not for the Hera goddess flag of the church hung on both sides of the ship,
the defense forces along the way would have to board the ship to check it.
"There is Shira City." Taksis said, pointing to a dense "grey jungle" not far
away.
"The houses by the river... are all factories?" Li looked over.
"Well, the king capital is the leader in the archipelago cities in every
respect. The number of merchants, workers, church members and ordinary people
is far more than that of Azure Fort, and the embassy facilities are much more
luxurious." Speaking of this Taksis language Zhongyin faintly expressed a
sense of pride, "During my stay, I will prepare a housekeeper and servant for
you, so that you can enjoy the most comfortable hospitality."
After a few days of recuperation, the girl’s injuries have been well
recovered, and her mental state has recovered a lot. Apart from a trace of
calmness in her pupils, she also seems to have returned to the time when she
entered the city.
But the other members of the trial team were not so lucky.
They have been hiding in the cabin these days, and they rarely show up.
The other people formed a tacit understanding, each time they delivered three
meals to the door of the room, and who wouldn't take the initiative to mention
it.
Xia Fan noticed that the closer to Shira, the more muddy the river under his
feet. Although the large number of factories built by the river could bring a
lot of wealth to the capital, it obviously also had a lot of impact on the
surrounding ecology. I just don’t know if there is a magic method in the
church that can solve the pollution, otherwise, sooner or later, it will
follow in the fog of the city.
Two hours later, the Baisha leaned firmly against the Wangdu Wharf.
The church that has been notified even has a dedicated passage to facilitate
the disembarkation of the Eastern Ambassador.
"Taksis, you are finally back." The one who came out to greet him was an adult
dragonborn, about forty years old, with a square face and a sense of majesty.
He was wearing a red robe with gold rims exclusive to the church, and a tall
hat on his head.
"My lord, the subordinate has a humiliating mission and failed to bring back
the Son of the Holy Spirit." Taxis knelt down on one knee, showing a rare
expression of guilt.
"I have a basic understanding of the situation. The enemy is mentally
arithmetic and unintentional. This is not your fault." The man called the
captain lifted the girl up, and then turned his head to look at Xia Fan,
"Presumably this is the Eastern Envoy. Master Xia Fan?" He smiled and
stretched out his hand, "Welcome to the city of Shila. I am the head of the
Hera Judgment and the red priest Cedaro Bavari. Your heroic deeds in Azure
Fort, let The church is excited up and down. The reception department has
prepared the villa in the west of the city and can move in now."
"Happy meeting." Xia Fan shook hands.
"Head, why is it west of the city?" Taksis asked with some confusion, "should
the Foreign Affairs District be in the south of the city? It's also closer to
the cathedral..."
"The environment in the west of the city is secluded and the houses are
spacious. It is more suitable for guests from afar to rest. And..." He paused.
"Recently, the foreign affairs area is very disturbed. Even the
representatives of the masters have increased the number of outings. The
church does not want the Eastern ambassador to be Get involved."
"Is that so..." Taksi Sinunu's lips didn't continue to care, "Then I will take
them over."
"No need." Saidaro clapped his hands, and a group of luxury carriages slowly
drove into the pier, "I have arranged a special person to pick you up. You'd
better follow me back to the cathedral as soon as possible."
"Head, but..." Taxis raised her brows.
"His Excellency the Pope is very concerned about this matter. My task is to
bring you back to the church as soon as possible." Saidaro said earnestly.
"It's okay, just go." Xia Fan took the initiative to say, "After all, business
matters, and it's not too late to come back when you are done."
Seeing this, Taxis could only accept, "I understand."
After a while, the carriage carried Xia Fan and the others out of the dock
area.
"Let's go." The smile on Sadaro's face also disappeared completely, "Flying."
After speaking, he turned into a dragon and fluttered his wings in place.
Taxis hurriedly followed, and she heard a dignified tone from the other
party's tone, "The situation in the church...is not so good?"
"It's not just bad." Saidaro said in a deep voice, "If it weren't for
considering that you are walking with the ambassador, I will consider
recruiting you back in advance. When you arrive at the cathedral, you must
carefully consider and answer the rest of the red clothes well. Priest's
inquiry."
"I understand," she nodded slowly.
…
The cathedral is located in the heart of Gila.
As the headquarters of the Hera Church, it has been expanded several times in
two hundred years. It is now the most magnificent building in the capital. The
height of the main tower has reached a staggering twenty-five feet. In cities
where there are generally only three or four floors. com is undoubtedly the
most eye-catching fortress.
Landing on the platform outside the cathedral, the two changed back to their
original form and walked forward quickly. After passing through the levels,
Taksis once again entered the Temple of the Sun after a long absence.
This is a typical high vaulted tower. The colorful glazed high windows
introduce sunlight into the room, concentrate on the center of the ground, and
converge into a huge spot of light. Paired with the gold-inlaid lines carved
on the stone slabs, people give birth to an illusion that the sun is under
one's body.
Under the crown of the high priests and the pope, they stood on the second
floor of the platform. Taxis needed to raise his head to see their faces.
"Taxis Wing Wing and see the crown." The girl meticulously carried out the
etiquette of the church. She knelt down respectfully, touching the sun pattern
on the ground three times with her forehead, and then solemnly said.
"May the light of Hera shine on you forever." Pope Pera IV said leisurely.
Taxis stood up and waited for the inquiry from the church officials.
"We don’t think there is a problem with the inferences about the Azure Castle
demons and the mages.” The first question was a middle-aged woman.
“Intelligence shows that this demonic incident is more like a special cast.
The problem is that it did not originate from Necromancy, on the contrary, is
somewhat similar to Eastern Witchcraft. The Chief Judge of the Wing Wing, I
wonder if you have thoroughly investigated the members of the Eastern Mission
and confirmed that they have nothing to do with this matter?"
