"Something big is going to happen!"
Søren's figure stood in the distance. Next to him was a dark attic, and nearby was a gathering place for prostitutes. He silently watched the Paladins in the distance, as well as the poor people kneeling in front of them. He suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. Every time a Paladin appeared, it meant the beginning of a massacre, which could eventually evolve into a destructive disaster that would turn the whole city into a river of blood!
Because the Paladins could not tolerate evil, and evil was a part of the world.
The Paladins were the most special group of professionals. They firmly believed in order and kindness, and they had strong will and faith. Becoming a Paladin was far more difficult than becoming a wizard. It was not just a matter of talent, but more importantly, whether you believed in justice and kindness in your heart. Without faith and justice, the Paladins would quickly fall, and their power would disappear. They might become an ordinary warrior, or they might fall and become a Dark Warrior.
"Pursue kindness, protect justice, and destroy evil."
These were the three tenets of the Paladins. Very few people could achieve the faith, courage, and kindness of a Paladin. Therefore, the number of Paladins in the world might be even fewer than wizards. Most of the knights were inclined to the good camp, and at most, they would advance to the field of Temple Guardian Knights. These Temple Knights might be kind, brave, and believe in justice, but they were not as extreme as the Paladins. They would not be so paranoid that they could not tolerate any evil.
They were a group of great people, but also a group of sad people!
Søren respected all the Paladins, even if they would be his enemies, because he almost joined the Paladins' camp.
Unfortunately, he chose another dark path in the end.
The first belief of the Paladins was justice and kindness, and the second belief was God. Therefore, when the Silver Hand said, "As long as the Paladins are alive, justice will last forever," Søren realized that a great purge was about to begin. The Silver Hand probably already had plans to fall out with the Church of the Goddess of Wealth. He would kill anyone who stopped him from pursuing justice and kindness without mercy!
The Paladins killed a lot of people.
This profession was very powerful. They had the ability of a warrior, could cast divine spells, and were protected by holy energy. They were forever immune to diseases and could ignore any fear.
Sacred Samurai were naturally immune to fear-type spells, immune to disease-type spells, and could cast healing divine spells.
This was the only class that could summon mounts from the outer planes. Moreover, it was possible to summon pegasi (male) and unicorn (female). Moreover, it was easy to ride them.
No matter which city it was, there would always be people who committed crimes.
Dark organizations, gang members, gray areas, officials, nobles, and so on. Not to mention the current world, even in Soran's previous life, if Paladins were allowed to clean up evil, a large number of people would be executed. Corrupt officials, judges who disregarded human lives, deceitful businessmen, black-hearted fake medicine, poisonous food, and so on. These people were at most sentenced to death in the eyes of the Saint Samurai, but they were heinous criminals who had harmed thousands of people. They were the kind that could be put to death directly.
This was the City of Wealth.
Almost none of the people in power in the City of Wealth were clean. Corpses could be seen in the sewers here every day. Even the Kindler here could smell the smell of blood and filth.
The Saint Samurai were rarely dispatched, but their appearance meant a great purge.
Because there was a sentence in the creed of the Saint Samurai, "You can't ignore evil, chaos, and sin. Even if you have to pay with your life, you must guard the side of justice and kindness."
If they died, their souls would return to the upper planes. Whether it was [Mountain Paradise of the Seven Heavens] or [Twin Paradise of Eden], they would welcome the arrival of these noble souls. In other words, the Saint Samurai were not afraid of death. These guys were destined to go to Mountain Paradise after death. Even if they died in some evil rituals, or their souls were blasphemed, as long as their faith was still firm and they did not commit any sins, the legendary Holy Spirit of Heaven would personally come to receive their souls.
It was difficult for people to evaluate the Saint Samurai.
Some people loved them and regarded them as the light of hope, as the embodiment of justice, but there were also people who hated them and wished they could disappear forever!
How many people loved them, how many people resented them.
The deeper the love, the deeper the hatred.
Søren had a neutral attitude towards the Saint Samurai. He did not want to kill them like other evil people. If there was evil in the world, there was justice. He believed that the world also needed such a group of people. As long as the Saint Samurai did not throw Detect Evil randomly, Søren could even bow slightly to show respect after seeing them.
But if they threw Detect Evil randomly, Søren would draw his sword in an instant!
There was once a story. In the story, a Saint Samurai entered an adventurer's tavern and immediately quieted down the place. This young Saint Samurai suddenly threw Detect Evil, and then in an instant, one-third of the people in the tavern drew their swords, one-third of the people in the tavern were ready to retreat, and one-third of the people in the tavern were shocked and uneasy.
In the eyes of the noblewomen, the Saint Samurai was the best lover!
However.
In the eyes of the noblewomen, the Saint Samurai was the last in the list of husband candidates, even lower than the Barbarians. The noblewomen hoped to have a lover who was trustworthy, brave, steadfast, and loyal. They would even seduce the Saint Samurai and see it as proof of their charm. However, almost no women were willing to marry a Saint Samurai, and they did not want their husband to be a Saint Samurai.
It was a very ironic thing.
A large number of Saint Samurai would never marry, and they would not be easily seduced by women, because it was easy to fall under temptation. [They like to adopt orphans, teach them justice and kindness, and raise them to become Saint Samurai from a young age.]
Being able to make a Saint Samurai fall was also something that the noblewomen loved to talk about.
Therefore, Saint Samurai rarely appeared.
…
City Hall.
An angry roar was heard, and the roof trembled slightly. Inside the hall was a very strong man with a shiny body. He was wearing a lot of gold jewelry, and there was an expensive jewelry necklace around his neck. Six of his ten fingers were wearing all kinds of expensive rings. At this moment, he was roaring at a row of people in front of him and said angrily, "Bastards! Idiots!
"Why didn't you idiots stop them?!
"I really want to wring your heads off! You bunch of swine beasts! You actually believed that the group of Saint Samurai was only here to track down the Son of Fear! Don't you know that the places where the Saint Samurai appeared were all disasters?! "…
"What do we do now?
"All the untouchables ran over to complain! When the time comes, the Saint Samurai will detect evil on a large scale! All of you idiots will be slaughtered one by one! "…"
A group of officials and nobles stood in the hall with cold sweat. One of the big-bellied guys hesitated and whispered, "Your Excellency! We can't stop them! This time it's the Silver Hand that appeared! "…"
Clang.
The strong man smashed the chair directly over, and the fat official's head was full of blood. He lost half of his life.
"Bastard!"
He let out an angry roar and shouted, "What do we do now? If that group of stubborn people is determined to purify evil, the City of Wealth will become the City of Death! "
"You! Sir Carlos. Your fleet has done a lot of pirate things, right? "
"And you! Baron Mosley. You take tens of thousands of Kindler every year from the gray income of the City of Wealth, right? Your son recently forced a pair of untouchables mother and daughter to death, right? And you, you, you! Which one of you guys doesn't have a butt full of blood debts! Which one of your juniors hasn't stained their hands with blood? One Detect Evil and all of you will be covered in blood! "…"
"Damn it, this is the City of Wealth! Not the damn City of Holy Light! "
"Every Kindler here is stained with blood. You idiots actually let the Saint Samurai into the city! Don't you know that they are all crazy? "…"
A middle-aged man dressed as a noble hesitated for a moment, then his expression turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "How about we take all these Saint Samurai …"
At this point, he made a throat-cutting gesture.
Clang!
The strong man picked up another chair and smashed it over, roaring, "Stupid pig! What do you think the Silver Knights are? Was he a pig waiting to be slaughtered? That team of Saint Samurai just now can't be defeated without an elite legion of more than 300 people! Do you want to start a war in the City of Wealth? Not to mention that there is still the Silver Hand here! "
"Do you want to provoke a battle of legends?"
"How do you think the reputation of the Silver Hand came about?! In the southernmost kingdom, this guy even cut down the king! You're just a Baron, and you're nothing! Unless the Temple of Wealth makes a move, he can kill all of us by himself! "…"
Southern Principality.
Since the destruction of the Arcane Empire, there had not been a strong empire in the south for thousands of years. It was more like a city-state system, but under the name of a kingdom, there were many smaller principalities. There were quite a lot of royal family members within the human race, but their control in the kingdom was limited to their own territory in the kingdom, and they were also enfeoffed to their own subordinates. Nearly half of the cities in the entire southern region were controlled by nobles, parliaments, and temples. They were inextricably linked.
The battle that made the Silver Hand famous.
It was he who single-handedly challenged a kingdom and almost killed a cruel tyrant of lawful evil, forcing him to forcibly abdicate to his kindest and youngest son.
After this battle, no one did not know the Silver Hand!
