Chapter 97: Send it to the Cathedral
From Vito town to Lomba City, there are more than 50 kilometers of roads, basically all open plains, and the roads are easy to walk.
At around 3:00 p.m., the group of people in Vito town could see the tall walls of Lumba from afar.
It is worth mentioning that although Devin asked someone to inform other towns, no townsman followed him in the end, and they all chose to stick to the town.
Since that's the case, German was not a saint, so let them go.
As their team slowly approached the city of Lumba, the guards on the wall also discovered the team.
The team is not big or small, but it is enough to make the city guard soldiers in Lumba City pay attention to it.
The city gate was immediately closed, and the city wall was filled with soldiers.
No wonder Lumba City is not nervous. There are nearly 1,000 people in this team. Although they don’t look like soldiers, the safest way is to put down the city gate and conduct routine inquiries.
When responding to the city of Lomba, the villagers of Vito were a little nervous. They were afraid that something would go wrong, so they looked at Devin at the front of the team, waiting for him to make an idea.
Devin raised his hand and paused the team.
Then he and Father Gryen rode their horses to the city and shouted: "I am Philrod, the glorious knight of the church. Behind me are the villagers of Vito. In the past few days, a large number of monsters appeared on the White Horse Plain and requested to enter the city of Rumba to get shelter."
At the first moment, Dewen reported his identity, and when the knight on duty in the city heard that the other party was actually a knight of the church, his vigilance suddenly became much more relaxed and he could speak a lot.
"Mr. Philrod, I need you to prove your identity." said the Knight on duty.
It was simple, Devin once again released the halo of thorns and whispered: "This is my proof of identity!"
The platinum halo covers German. In the halo, there are golden characters vaguely flowing, which is very gorgeous and makes him look very sacred.
Devin pointed to Father Gryen beside him and said, "This is the priest of Vito Town, Grayen, and he can also testify for me."
The priest was wearing the robes of low-level clergy in the church. The color was gray and white, and his style was very special, and he could recognize his identity at a glance.
He spoke at the right time: "His Excellency Philrod is indeed my Lord's knight, and the news about the monsters is true. We were attacked by hundreds of dark werewolfs and Minotaurs on the way."
In the diocese of the Lord of Glory, basically no one dares to pretend to be a clergy in the church. Because it is very easy to be seen through and after being exposed, it will definitely be punished for the crime of despising God and being subject to the extreme punishment, which is simply thankless.
In fact, when the halo appeared, the knights on the city wall believed German words, and with the priest's proof, it is certainly true that this person is a knight of the church.
However, the Knight on duty still had a question in his mind, because the current mayor of Vito town is the Baron's son Ferrey.
How come his figure didn't appear? Could it be that an accident happened?
When the Knight thought so, he became nervous and shouted, "Mr. Philrod, I ask to see the mayor of Vito."
Dewen was prepared for a long time. With a wave of his hand, several townsmen behind him were crippled with limbs and were in a deep dizzy state.
Fei Lai's face was as pale as paper, his body was covered with blood, and his clothes were torn and torn. His image was so miserable that it was unbearable to look at it.
The on-duty knight saw it from afar on the city wall and was shocked: "What's going on with Young Master Feilai? Who hurts him?"
Devin had already thought of the reason. He sighed with a deep look on his face and said regretfully: "Felai went to the dark forest to pursue werewolf, but was attacked by dark creatures. If I hadn't happened to be touched, whether he could live now would be a question."
He wouldn't admit that he had done the injury. If he admitted it, he wouldn't be able to enter the city.
When he arrived in the city safely, he still had a series of backstops. In the current crisis of monster siege, Devin could guarantee that the Baron had no time to care about who hurt his son.
What happened next? Then there is no future. Devin was not going to let the Baron survive this turmoil. He had already made up his mind to take advantage of the chaos to get the Baron to know.
On the other hand, Glain listened to Devin's mouth and said the same thing as the truth, and only felt sweaty.
This guy is really cheating. He inexplicably took the charge of framed the Baron's son, and now he has to help him get rid of his lies.
If you accidentally leak the news in the future, the Knight may be fine if he has a tough backstage.
He, the fish in the pond, will suffer.
Alas, who told him that he had already boarded the pirate ship and had no way out, so he could only follow Devin with his will.
The on-duty knight on the city did not know the truth. When he heard this, he immediately panicked and hurriedly ordered: "Open the city gate quickly and welcome Young Master Feilai into the city."
He ordered another soldier, "Go and inform the Lord of this."
The soldiers immediately took the order and left.
Devin shouted again: "There will be very dangerous outside the city in the past few days, and the villagers of Vito Town will also enter the city."
These are all trivial matters. Compared with Young Master Feilai's safety, this is nothing. In addition, a Knight of Honor spoke, and the Knight on duty was no longer in a dilemma, so he simply agreed.
Then Dewen waved his hand behind him and signaled the townspeople to follow him.
Soon, the gate of Rumba City opened, and several knights rushed out from inside, running straight towards Ferry, as if they wanted to take him back as soon as possible.
When they passed by Devin, they looked at it more and felt a little strange. Why did this boy feel strange and familiar?
However, these knights only felt that they did not recognize German.
First of all, it was because Devin only took him in Lumba City for a few days at best, and they only met Devin a few times and were not very familiar with him.
Secondly, the current German face has undergone some small costumes, changed her hairstyle, and her clothes are high-end. Her temperament has also changed drastically. Her identity is still a Knight of Glory.
As long as he doesn't admit it himself, even if others feel that he and Devin imagine it, they will only regard it as a coincidence.
Devin had already advised the townspeople about this matter. When others called him, they only called the surname Philrod, but they would not call the name Devin, so as not to attract people's association.
Seeing the miserable Felai, a knight got angry on the spot and shouted at Father Glain: "What's going on? Why don't you treat Master Felai's injuries?"
Grain was prepared for a long time, and as agreed before, he said with regret: "Young Master Ferry's injury is too serious. My ability is insufficient. If he treats him without authorization, it will only leave him disabled for life. All I can do is to use a 'sleeping technique' to relieve his pain."
When he heard what he said, the knights became more and more anxious and hurriedly lifted the wooden frame and rushed into the city.
Father Glain continued to shout, his voice anxious: "There is only Bishop of the Cathedral of Master Ferry in the entire city of Lomba. You move quickly, be careful not to bump, otherwise it will leave irreparable sequelae to Master Ferry."
After hearing what he said, several knights stepped a little faster and became more careful in their movements, for fear of bringing pain to the seriously injured Young Master Ferry.
Under Devin's leadership, a group of townsmen also entered the city of Lomba in an orderly manner.
The city of Lumba is quite large, and there are still places to accommodate this thousand people, but it is definitely not possible to gather together, so I can only scatter and stay in a hotel.
Staying in a hotel is a huge expense for the townspeople and they are definitely reluctant to leave.
They would rather find a place to build a floor shop on the corner of the street. It is still midsummer now, so it is no big deal. It is cooler to sleep outside.
However, since Devin brought people, he naturally had to be responsible for it.
After thinking about it, he took out a few hundred gold coins and handed them to Uncle Nolan, asking him to divide a few for the people in Vito town from door to door, which was considered as the expense of staying in a hotel.
Finally, he stuffed more than a dozen gold coins to Father Gryen and instructed: "I, my neighbors in Vito, will ask you to take care of you, and you have to find a place for them."
The people in the town have never seen the world, but the priest is different. Moreover, he is a person of identity, so it would be better to lead the townspeople to find a place to live.
Moreover, the priest was a young man, not as slippery and worldly as Leon, so Devin was relieved to him.
"Sir Knight, don't worry, I will be responsible for finding a good place for everyone." Glain promised loudly.
He held the heavy gold coins in his hand and was very happy. This was equivalent to his income in a small town church for a year.
Uncle Nolan walked forward and asked with concern: "What about you?"
Devin smiled and said, "I want to go to the cathedral to report on the monsters. This matter is urgent and cannot be delayed."
At this point, things are basically in line with German expectations.
After Baron Heimer saw his son's tragic situation and Father Gryen's words, he would definitely send Ferry to the cathedral for treatment as soon as possible.
What he has to do now is to arrive at the cathedral before Baron Heimer, seize the opportunity, obtain the cathedral's support for him, and make him invincible.
If he arrived late, then Ferry's injuries would be found suspicious. Although as the Knight of Del's Glory, nothing big happened, but if the Archbishop doubts, this matter would be imperfect.
Moreover, he could not stay with the people in Vito Town for too long. If someone saw the relationship, he would infer Devin's true identity.
The entire town of Vito may be implicated.
So as soon as Devin finished his order, he rode his horse and ran quickly towards the direction of the cathedral.
In the cathedral, he wanted to compete with Baron Heimer.
In this contest, he is in the dark and the Baron is in the light. Devin has a great advantage and will basically not lose.
