The matter was resolved in a special way. Both sides got what they wanted. Reynolds returned to Mia's Church with the bulging money pouch in his hand.
As soon as he entered, he saw Avinaro curled up and sleeping soundly on the bench. She didn't seem to be on guard at all.
And the money pouch in his arms was showing a heavy weight …
How about …
Reynolds almost had evil thoughts. Fortunately, he still abided by the teachings of the church. He quickly shook his head and threw the evil thoughts to the back of his mind.
He walked to Avina's side and poked her face, trying to wake her up.
However, Avina was sleeping soundly and did not respond.
Reynolds had no choice but to pull her blonde ponytails.
It did not work.
"She's sleeping too soundly, isn't she? He's simply at the mercy of others, doing whatever he wants … "
Reynolds had no choice but to change his method.
Avinaro, who was in a deep sleep, suddenly felt the world spinning. She quickly opened her eyes and found that her body was spinning rapidly in the air like a pendulum.
Reynolds was holding her slim waist with both hands and swinging her petite body around like a stick.
"Wuuu … Help … Help …"
Avina quickly let out a pitiful whimper.
Reynolds saw that she was awake and stopped as well. He placed her back on the bench and continued, "Don't worry.
"You're awake?"
Avina: (@ _ @)
Avinaro was dizzy and tried her best to resist. In order to not let Reynolds get close to her, she leaned back and instinctively raised her little foot in white stockings to kick Reynolds away.
In the end, Reynolds grabbed her feet and stopped her meaningless resistance. He said sternly, "Don't worry.
"Stop fooling around. Be serious. I have something to discuss with you …"
"What … What do you want?"
Avina asked timidly. She curled up in fear and hugged the hammerhead shark doll tightly. It seemed like she was afraid that Reynolds would suddenly go berserk and jump on her.
"Do you still have the crystal you gave me before? I'll trade it with you. "
Reynolds said seriously.
Although Avina was very stupid and weak, he could totally cheat and rob her and eat her up …
But that was not in line with Reynolds's style. He would never do such evil deeds.
Therefore, he decided to make a fair deal with Avinaro in private …
It could be money, or teaching of divine arts, or services …
As long as he could get the crystal from Avinaro and sell it to Sir Donald, it would not be a far-fetched fantasy to buy a prettier and grander church for the goddess.
Unfortunately, Avina shook her head.
"No … no more …"
"We only need to eat one piece a month. We won't bring much with us. Every month, when we need to eat, the elders in the clan will send it over."
"Since it's rations, why make it so troublesome?"
Reynolds asked in confusion.
"The elders are afraid that I won't be able to control my mouth and eat too much in one go, turning into a fat dinosaur in the future …"
Avina said softly, a little embarrassed.
Seeing that his source of income was cut off just like that, Reynolds was very reluctant. He thought of the stolen crystal again, so he talked about the strange case and asked in the end.
"Do you have a way to get the crystal back?"
Avina shook her head again.
"It's just food for us. It's not something important …"
"But, from what you described, it doesn't sound like it was stolen."
Reynolds couldn't help but be stunned. "If it wasn't stolen, could it have been eaten by the safe?"
"There is indeed such a possibility … Previously, there was a bizarre theft in our clan. A cave full of crystals disappeared without a trace."
"At first, everyone thought that the crystals were eaten by someone secretly, but the elders studied them for a long time and found that although the crystals tasted good, they could easily resonate with magic and then evaporate into thin air …"
"That time, it was because the cave of the crystal was very close to a magic node of the Guardian Barrier. When the barrier was activated, it caused the crystals to resonate and evaporate."
Reynolds listened silently. Because he knew nothing about magic, he couldn't judge the truth of this matter. He just felt sorry for the dragons …
That was a warehouse full of crystals!
But then, it really wasn't that Master Venner who did it?
Tsk tsk, what a pity …
The old bishop was also attracted by the conversation between the two and interrupted.
"But according to what you said, at least the magic fluctuation of the Guardian Barrier can cause the crystals to resonate, right?"
Avinaro nodded and replied, "Yes.
"Yes, if it's just a slight magic fluctuation, it's fine. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to carry it around."
The old bishop followed up.
"But Reynolds said that this crystal was just stored in a magic safe. No matter how carefully made the safe is, its fluctuation can't be compared to a Guardian Barrier, right?"
"And in order not to affect daily use, these items have to be deliberately eliminated."
Reynolds listened, thought for a moment, and asked in return.
"So, you mean that Sir Viscount's shop didn't choose a good location? It just happened to be near a magic node of the barrier? "
"Eh? That's not right. Why don't I remember there being no Guardian Barrier in the city? "
Although there were many factions in the Sinless City, the religious forces were still the main force. So, something as important as the Guardian Barrier was naturally controlled by the three major churches.
They had set up many Divine Barrier Barriers in the city, forming a large-scale defense system called the Wall of Sighs. Although it was not usually used, when a crisis came, its strength was enough to withstand the attacks of an angel. Its durability was also enough to last until reinforcements came, ensuring that the city would not be lost.
So, even if there were no Legendary powerhouses in the Sinless City, it was enough to rest easy. However, the cost of activating it once was not cheap, and it would definitely be a waste of money.
If not, the mayor would have ordered the activation of the barrier to drag out Avina and Ince.
In order not to interfere with the operation of the Divine Barrier, the Guardian Barrier was not allowed to be set up in the city. That was why Venner's Mage Tower was set up outside the city.
But from what the old bishop said, there was actually someone secretly setting up a Guardian Barrier in the city?
What was their motive?
"This kind of thing can be big or small. Although the Wall of Sighs has not been activated for more than a decade, no one knows when it will suddenly be used …"
"It's a pity that you and I don't know magic, so we can't investigate …"
The old bishop said with a serious expression.
"I understand now! Someone is trying to cause trouble! "
Reynolds nodded his head vigorously.
"I'll write an anonymous letter and report it to the major churches!" Reynolds immediately got a pen and paper and began to write an anonymous letter.
