Vol 8 Chapter 624: Choice

Rubens was stunned, and immediately remembered that this was Roddy's mount ... After all, the last time the other party came to deliver the letter crushed the temple's dovecote, but he lost a lot of money. Seeing now, he quickly rushed out and sent a signal to the reachable duck using the divine magic, and successfully removed the two letters tied to it.
One letter was written by Sally, and the other was covered by Bishop Benjamin's wax seal.
He wondered why the two letters were together, so he opened Sally's letter first, and the contents of it made him thunder.
His hands, which had just calmed down, trembled. He picked up Benjamin's letter, but after reading three or four sentences, the sweat on his forehead came out ...
After staying in the "Temple" for a long time, Rubens was actually infected by the cozy atmosphere here. He had lost his previous vigilance. It is not as full of crises as when he went to Everta, and his life is stable all day. There are hardly any threats to the attention of the Temple.
"Viper Cross" has become a distant term for him. He has not heard of any action taken by the other party for more than a year. Although he was reminded at the meeting today, Rubens himself was not convinced. What effect the other party can have on the "Temple".
After all, this is the base camp of the "Rose Cross" ... with so many temple guards, believers and cardinals, how brave is the other party to dare to strike here?
But the content of the letter shattered the idea relentlessly. When Rubens carefully calculated the strength of the city, he felt that the entire back had been soaked with cold sweat ...
The words of the two letters were small, but Rubens read it three or four times. This was not to remember the information, but that he did not want to face the fact.
"How come ... does Benjamin think so ..."
Facing the sudden dilemma, he suddenly remembered that he was simply a "loyal to the rose cross" when he was just a bishop.
Now it seems that I have long forgotten what is the "rose cross", because what I can see in front of me is just the rolling among the cardinals.
It ’s been too long for me to preach for the Lord and save more believers ...
What is salvation?
Rubens suddenly remembered the words Mogleni said to himself when he was standing here
"You will eventually become the person you hate."
Unexpectedly ... Finally, this day has come.
The stationery was burned by the sudden light, and it was instantly turned into scattered ashes. Rubens took a deep breath, and what echoed in his mind were words that were suppressed and mocked by the cardinals ...
"Is it death or new life?"
He murmured, and the figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.

July 1st.
Earl Milnor was not traveling fast, because "heavy weight" really became a more difficult problem than expected.
One of the main reasons is the newspapers that spread throughout the Kingdom of Karen: the nobles who learned that they might be "levied" did not want to lend their winter food to the army, so many nobles simply took their families to hide Going elsewhere, the ration team waiting for Mirno went over and found that there was no food at all except the farmers in the territory of the other side.
Even if enough preparations had been made before the "Viper Cross", the travel speed has been delayed for this reason. There are 10,000 combat troops and more than 6,000 auxiliary troops supporting such a large army. This is because there are not many cavalry. A total of 16,000 people needed an amazing amount of food to travel all the way, but because they have not been able to collect much food after entering the temple territory, everyone has found that the quality of food every day is plummeting.
The team arrived and camped near a fork in the road named "Gelch", which was twenty kilometers away from the wall of the temple. According to the plan, the team will march directly westward when preparing to camp tomorrow, ready to enter the area where Everta is located. But at this time Roddy, sitting in the camp, looked at the city hidden in the night, wondering what he was thinking.
"The sticks!"
The chatter by the campfire never stopped. A group of knightly masters were complaining that the hard stone-like bread of today ’s bad dinner was hard to swallow, and Roddy chose to give up after taking a bite because he felt He was chewing a piece of wood.
"Damn, I suspect that this kind of bread will curl up when you cut it! God knows how many years these things have been put, I guess it will be available in three or four years!"
Zack was holding the largest piece of bread in his hand, and a large fan-like hand "slammed" twice against the hard surface, but he couldn't shake even a crumb, but instead it broke out a few weevil.
"What a ... what exactly do the Rose Cross want to do? They might as well declare that they belong to Everta!"
"Those aristocrats hid with food in advance, they must be ghosts of the Rose Cross ... these blood-sucking gods!"
Roddy turned his head and found that the direction when talking about the "Rose Cross" seemed to have quietly changed. Before that, he hadn't heard their complaints about the "Rose Cross", but these people were not true believers. I didn't say a few words. But after being hungry for a few days, the complaints about the "Rose Cross" grew deeper and he can be sure that this is the result of human guidance, because the current Cavaliers are generally uneducated, and the cost of inciting illiteracy is too low What's more, the famine now is a fact ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Just hold the pot on the "Rose Cross", and it is not difficult for the "Holy Army" to produce hatred.
The scolding and scolding sounds never stopped. Roddy did not continue to keep silent. He is now integrated into the small circle of the camp, but because of his young age and weak strength, these self-proclaimed knights all around In addition to ignoring him, in addition to the daily boredom and holding a dagger to compete, Rody heard the most, that is, those knights who "pointed" to him.
"Your boy's posture is not right. Do you really know what to do when you are on the battlefield?"
"Hey, I'll teach you a trick and a half, do you want to learn it? This is what I learned from the Knights of Nielko. I guarantee you to survive on the battlefield. However, such a delicate sword technique requires money, ten silver coins Just teach you! "
The Nielco Cavaliers can be regarded as powerful and powerful. Roddy remembers that this guy died in the 596 campaign. At that time, he advanced to level 41. As for now ...
"You say Nierko? Wasn't he directly washed to death by the orc army?"
"That's why his swordsmanship has become an absolute skill! How is it, boy, do you want to learn?"
