Holy City.
Messiah was lucky today. Because Heroria temporarily set the main character of the film as the choir, she did not have to continue to be entangled with the camera.
Now, Messiah only needed to sit in the cathedral and listen to the holy singing of the choir.
This made her tense nerves relax quite a bit.
This time, the rehearsal led by Heroria lasted about two hours. During the break, the members of the choir surrounded Heroria and asked various questions from Heroria.
Judging from the eyes of the choir members, they truly worshipped this saintess.
To Messiah's surprise, a girl from the choir ran to her side at this time.
"Are you Knight Messiah?"
The girl sat on the bench next to Messiah.
"What can I do for you?"
Messiah inexplicably felt that the girl's appearance was a little familiar, but she could not remember exactly what it was.
"I heard that you used to be my father's apprentice." The girl said with some uncertainty.
"Your father? Is it Bishop Koebler? "
Messiah immediately remembered who the girl was talking about.
"Yes! Knight Messiah … My father has been away from home for almost half a month. " The girl's face suddenly showed an expression of joy. "I asked my mother, and she said that he was sent to an expedition, but … Father didn't even bring his own sword. How could he be away?"
"…"
Messiah could see that she was very worried about her father's condition.
Although the news of the Heresy Court being abolished spread in the Holy City, the specific members of the Court were not known by others. In the eyes of outsiders, Bishop Koebler was still a sacred soldier who was worshipped by the people.
But the truth that Messiah knew was that he had betrayed the entire Holy City and was now locked up in the underground prison, eroded by the Grey Fog like a useless person.
"Your father was indeed assigned an important mission."
At this moment, Heroria appeared behind the girl. Messiah noticed that Heroria took out the camera and pointed it at the girl.
"If there's anything you want to say to your father, you can tell me." With a smile that could melt frost, Heroria said, "I can help you pass the message to your father."
"Really? Thank you, Saintess! "
The girl was really surprised. Myrcella could only watch the choir's rehearsal in silence.
After the members of the choir left, Messiah looked at the two raw crystals in Heroria's hands.
"It's been almost a month. Is teacher really alright?" Messiah said worriedly.
"Teacher? You can call him whatever you want, but his only value now is to tell you where the cores of the sacrificial magic circle are. "
Heroria looked at the recorded images in her hands.
"Half a month ago, I played his wife's recording, and there was finally some reaction. Today, I'll try his daughter's. Hopefully, it will wake him up a little," said Heroria.
Messiah didn't know how to answer Heroria. He could only follow Heroria all the way to the underground prison under the cathedral.
This time, Messiah didn't step inside. Instead, he waited outside for Heroria's results.
Messiah clearly understood the seriousness of this matter. If Kobler wasn't willing to cooperate, the Sacred City would face a disaster that was close to destruction.
Just like that, Messiah waited for nearly half an hour before Heroria slowly walked out of the prison.
"Lady Heroria … Teacher …"
Halfway through his sentence, Messiah noticed that Heroria's expression was a little strange.
"Damn it!"
Heroria, who had always shown her gentle side, suddenly angrily slammed her hand against the wall next to her.
The expression on Heroria's face was one of pure anger.
One punch didn't seem to be enough to vent the anger in Heroria's heart. Just as she was about to slam her hand against the wall again, Messiah immediately grabbed Heroria's arm.
"Lady Heroria, please calm down. Is teacher still not willing to confess?"
Messiah saw that the edge of Heroria's palm was already bleeding.
"That guy is completely on the side of the Inquisition." Heroria's arm kept trembling. "At times like this, I really wish I was proficient in some necromancy tricks."
"Is there no other way?" Messiah couldn't bear to ask.
"The Inquisition is too good at disguising themselves. Even your real teacher, Wu Yu, can't find them. I've already interrogated more than ten Inquisition, and the results are all the same …"
Heroria suddenly fell into Messiah's arms. While Messiah was at a loss, he could faintly hear Heroria's whispers.
"I've spent so many years building the Holy City, how can it be destroyed by those guys …" Heroria paused and raised her head to look at Messiah.
At that moment, Messiah had an illusion that Heroria's eyes were like a cat's.
"Messiah, can you think of any way?" she asked.
"Let … the residents take refuge in Noland?"
This was the only answer that Messiah could think of. If the Inquisition's plan to sacrifice the entire city couldn't be stopped, at least they could use this opportunity to open the portal to send the residents as far away as possible.
"Impossible, the number of people that Noland's portal can carry is limited, and I won't do something that will cause the faith of the Holy Kingdom to crumble."
Heroria left Messiah's embrace wearily. After rubbing her eyes, she forced herself to be energetic.
"This time, I'll let someone open the connection with Noland in advance, so we'll be going to Noland to meet the Chaos Devil tomorrow. Cheer up Messiah," Heroria said.
At this moment of life and death for the Holy City, Messiah couldn't be happy, but to cooperate with Heroria, he forced a smile.
… …
The next day, Noland …
Located in the ballroom of the White Thorn Theatre.
This was a place specially used by the Knight Of The White Thorn to entertain those distinguished guests.
Today was used to celebrate the success of "The Shawshank Redemption".
"You really won't get beaten up by your teacher if you play with the Weave in class?"
Josiah hid in the corner of the ballroom and chatted with Hiri via text message.
"Impossible! It's super convenient to play with the Weave in class, speaking of which, what's so good about the celebration … "
Hiri's text message was attached with a bunch of illogical English characters.
It seemed that Hiri's act of playing with the Weave in class was discovered by the man in purple, and the worst thing was that she was sent rolling on the keyboard.
"Man in purple, please punish your student lightly."
After Josiah left this reply, a new text message suddenly popped up.
"We've reached Noland, Mr. Josiah, can you tell us where you are now?"
The sender of the text message was Sister Lia.
"Doesn't the portal in Noland open in seven days? How did you get here? "
In Josiah's memory, the portal in Noland should open in seven days.
"I used a special method to open it in advance. Of course, I can't stay for too long."
Another stowaway?
Josiah wondered if he should ask the enforcers to arrest the nun, but after careful consideration, he decided against it.
