"Okay, then what do you think you should do next? Go back to Ice City and then dig your heart to investigate the conspiracy that does not exist at all?" Xin smiled disdainfully. He thought Jim was too cautious. ※%,

"No, the place we went to this time is not the Ice City," Elena interjected very rarely, guiding everyone, "but the capital of the Principality of Lyle."

The royal capital of the Principal of Lair was about a thousand kilometers away from the Ice City. Everyone rushed to the road overnight and finally arrived at the capital on the third day after leaving the Ice City.

A team of guards armed to the teeth at the gate of the Wangdu City were wearing thick steel helmets and carrying heavy black swords, arranged neatly together, with a very fierce momentum. The crowds entering and leaving were strictly interrogated and inspected. As long as there was a trace of movement, these heavy-armored guards would wave their swords toward each other without hesitation.

The carriage stopped not far from the city gate, and a small team of guards blocked Rick and the others' way, without any intention of letting go.

There was a guard in the team without a helmet. He was the captain of the team, his voice was short and powerful: "Get out and check." His voice was as cold as a sword blade and had no emotions.

Jim frowned slightly. He cooperated with the carriage and glanced at the guards who were solemnly waiting behind him, and said intimately: "The atmosphere is not right, what's going on here?"

Rick poked his head out of the carriage and saw the captain of the guard looking at him coldly. He understood and lifted the curtain so that the guard could see the inside of the carriage clearly. "We are here to travel. There is no other cargo inside, only luggage you carry with you."

The captain of the guard was too lazy to look into the carriage, but he still repeated the previous sentence, but his tone began to feel a little impatient: "Get out of the car and check!"

Everyone in the carriage changed their faces, and Xin snorted coldly, "What's the point? Isn't it just a guard guarding the city?"

"Sin, don't cause trouble." Rick frowned and whispered. This is not the capital. Although the Wings of Minks are the messenger of the Kato Empire, their actions must be kept low-key.

But the words of the young man in white still came into the guards' ears, and he sneered. He turned around and tried to use his colors to the heavy armored soldiers behind him. The carriage was immediately surrounded by a group of guards who were walking loudly.

"Don't joke about your own lives. If you don't cooperate, you will be caught and squatted in prison. If you dare to resist..." The guard captain sneered and shook the heavy sword twice the width of the normal sword. As he moved, the guards surrounding the carriage stared at everyone with almost killing eyes.

Those who entered the city did not dare to stay at the gate. Seeing someone dared to challenge the majesty of the royal guards of the Principal of Lair at this time, many people secretly laughed at them for not being able to live.

"What are they going to do..." The guards outside the carriage looked fierce and evil. Ge Rui was afraid that he would be arrested for no reason as soon as he went out.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a routine checkup." Rick's relaxed expression made Grey feel a little relieved.

The aura of these heavily armored guards is not comparable to that of ordinary city guards. Only by fighting on the battlefield for a long time can people feel cold before they get close to them. Xin immediately became much more honest. After all, he was just a sixteen-year-old boy and was immediately suppressed by their amazing aura.

Rick, Grey, Elena and Xin all cooperated well to get off the carriage and stood with Jim.

The captain of the guard glanced at Xin disdainfully, as if saying, "You know your identity". The boy in white was so angry that his teeth were itchy. But he only dared not speak out.

The captain's chin moved towards the direction of the carriage. The heavy armored soldiers behind him stepped onto the carriage rudely. The two horses pulling the carriage were scared. If Jim hadn't pulled the reins, he would have gone wild long ago.

He turned the inside of the carriage to the sky and confirmed that there was nothing suspicious. The captain of the guard nodded and asked coldly: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

"We are tourists from the Kato Empire and have always wanted to find an opportunity to see the capital of the Principality of Lyre." Jim replied slowly with a smile.

He glanced at Jim casually, and the captain said while making records: "It's not peaceful here now. Have you not done any investigation before you come here?"

Everyone was slightly surprised, and Rick frowned and asked, "What happened here?"

The captain of the guard seemed to have not heard him at all, and hurriedly made records. With a wave of his hand, he said in a very unkind tone: "You can go in. But remember, it is best not to run around and not to cause trouble. Now is a period of severe punishment. Since he is a wanderer, stay honestly." After that, he was too lazy to talk nonsense and led the heavy armored soldiers back to the city gate.

"Hey, why does the Ice City look bustling, but it gives everyone a panic?" Everyone who entered and left the city was very low-key, with his tail tightly clamped and his body in a human form. Grey looked curiously at the crowd who seemed to be going out to take refuge, and felt a little uneasy.

"Let's talk about it first." The atmosphere in the royal capital was obviously much more tense than in the Ice City. The feeling here was in line with the information given by the Principal of Lair. Jim naturally noticed something inappropriate and hurriedly urged everyone to get on the carriage.

Except for Jim sitting in the carriage as the coachman, everyone else returned to the carriage. However, before he could start, a huge sound came from behind.

Rick opened the window curiously, poked his head out and looked back, and saw a large pure white carriage pulled by eight tall and mighty snow horses towards the city gate.

The carriage's carriage is milky white under the background and is embroidered with strange carvings. Rick can tell at a glance that this is the symbol of the Church of Destiny.

Behind the carriage, there was a long dragon-like crowd, all wearing white robes of the church, and they were all believers of the Lord God.

The captain of the guard, who was busy making records, slowly turned his head and saw the large army of the Church of Destiny sailing towards this side. He sneered and put down the paper and pen in his hand, waved his hand and ordered loudly: "Close the city gate!"

"Is this OK with the team... captain...? The superiors may blame him." Another guard beside him asked in a low voice.

"I'll just shut up if I say something happens!" The captain of the guard didn't care at all that he would be punished, but watched the believers of the Church of Destiny come over with vigilantly. He held the heavy sword in his hand tightly and said lightly: "No matter what, I will block you, the madman, outside the city."

With a rumbling sound, the city gate, which was more than ten meters high, slowly closed, which immediately aroused strong dissatisfaction among countless people entering and leaving the city.

"Are you mistaken? Why did the city gate be closed at this time?"

"Look, it's the Church of Destiny!"

"Oh my goodness, let us out!"

...

Many people blocked the city gate and quarreled with the guards, but both inside and outside the city were arrested on the spot by the royal guards of the Principal of Lair. The others immediately became honest.

"The city gate is closed, why?" Xin didn't understand why the city guards wanted to block the members of the Church of Destiny outside the city.

"It seems that we are here right this trip." Rick knew that there was a good show, and he suddenly became energetic, his eyes fixed on the carriage approaching here.

Jim parked the carriage next to the city gate and gave way to the large army of the Church of Destiny. Outside the city gate there was a moat dozens of meters wide, and the bridge was immediately blocked by the believers of the church.

The pure white carriage was parked in front of the city gate, and it immediately became the focus of everyone.

The captain of the guard snorted coldly, "We're finally waiting for you. Let me meet the so-called Church of Destiny today." He resisted the huge heavy sword on his shoulders, led all the royal guards of the Principal of Lair, and surrounded the white carriage with great momentum.

"Get out of the car and check!" The captain of the guard took a deep breath, opened his voice, and shouted loudly.

When the coachman's clergyman lowered his head and lifted the curtain, a middle-aged man in a white robe walked out of the carriage, Rick clearly remembered that this was one of the four archbishops.

"Rare! The inside of the car is His Majesty the Pope. He is the spokesperson of the Lord God, so why don't you let it go quickly?" The Archbishop stared at the captain of the guard with his head raised, and seemed not to take him seriously at all.

Rick had a little deal with this archbishop. In his impression, the four major bishops were all gentle people, but now they seemed even more arrogant than the captain of the guards.

"Hmph, Your Majesty the Pope is not His Majesty the King. The mere church of Destiny is not qualified to order me!" He is the captain of the Royal Guards. He usually guards the palace. Now the situation is turbulent, so His Majesty ordered him to send a small team to stay in front of the gate of the capital.

The reason for a large part of the chaos in the royal capital is that the Church of Destiny, which received the king's secret order and could never let these crazy believers come in.

The Archbishop was so angry that his face turned red. He immediately argued with the captain of the guards. However, the latter was full of ruffianism and spoke much more domineeringly. In terms of oral skills, the middle-aged man who had just become the Archbishop of the Destiny Church was not his opponent.

The head-on conflict between the defending army and the Church of Destiny immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and Rick was most willing to see this situation. Because the contradiction between the two proved that the Principality of Lair did not recognize the status of the Church of Destiny. The more violent the cause, Rick and the others could obtain accurate information from it.

Although the guard captain was temporarily at the upper hand, and they also had heavy armored guards with great combat effectiveness, there were thousands of believers from the Ice City behind the carriage, all of whom were citizens of the Principality of Lair. If a quarrel broke out, the guard captain would not dare to kill, so he had to solve the trouble before the believers came.

"The Principality of Lair doesn't welcome you, please go home." This was the ultimatum of the guard captain, because as soon as he finished speaking, the heavy armored soldiers behind him raised their swords in unison, and dozens of sword edges pointed at the white carriage.

"Get back." A low voice came from the pure white carriage. The archbishop quickly lifted the curtain and an old man in a golden robe stood up.

He is the first pope of the Church of Destiny, Sono.

"Look, it's the Pope himself." Some people who could not enter the city were stranded outside, and they all seemed lively, but they did not dare to get too close, because the dozens of heavily armored guards armed to their teeth were not so easy to talk to.

The Pope himself took action, what kind of sparks will be sparked? The conflict between the two sides immediately escalated. Rickan sat in the carriage and observed the changes in the situation with great enthusiasm.

The captain of the guard frowned and said, "The old man in front of him was the pope who guided the church to advance in destiny. It is undeniable that the pope made great contributions to the rise of the church in such a short time."

"I'm the same thing, please go back." Facing the Pope, the captain of the guards was not as confident as before, but he still would not retreat.

Sono smiled faintly, without any reproach in his eyes, but said kindly: "The great Lord God has chosen the Principality of Lyre. We should be a family, why can't we live in harmony?"

"What a shitty god? The so-called faith is just to provide the weak with a pillar of the heart. Besides, your destiny church has ulterior motives, and they want to touch the Principality of Lyle? Bah!" The captain of the guard spat thick phlegm in the direction of Sono. Compared to the illusory gods, he was more willing to believe in the sword in his hand.

The pope still kept a calm smile, and had never changed from beginning to end. He shook his head gently, looking as if he was disappointed, and sighed: "The Lord God will forgive your ignorance. No matter how big the mistake you have made, the Lord God's arms will still be open to you."

"It's useless to say more," the army of believers in the rear would arrive at the city gate in less than ten minutes. At that time, Destiny will have many people and powerful people, so I'm afraid that I can only submit. The blue fighting spirit surged out, and the invisible position was centered on the guard captain and spread outward. His tone was still short and firm, "As long as I have a breath, you can't even step into the royal capital!"

This guy turned out to be a high-level swordsman, and he was indeed not an ordinary city guard... Rick could sense that the guard captain exuded a strong fighting spirit, and was not on the same level as Jim, and was almost on the same level as his mentor Anjie.

The high-level sword master belongs to one side of the powerful. As the captain of the royal guard of the Principality of Lair, his strength must be at least so strong that he can save the situation.

"Are they going to fight here?" Grey covered his mouth. It would be fine if it was a magical battle, but the big sword on the defending army was not a rusty broken sword. The clergy of the Church of Destiny was weak at a glance. The result of the close combat was that the latter was slaughtered and blood flowed into a river. Such a cruel scene, the girl dared not see it.

Faced with the powerful fighting spirit, the Pope stood calmly in the carriage, and said without any emotion: "Put down your sword, we are all lucky people who have been favored by the Lord God, why bother each other?"

"Bad, your whole family is the children of the Lord God, I am his father!" The captain of the guard answered the Pope's question arrogantly. With a wave of the big sword, the green fighting spirit condensed into a sword light, and quickly passed over the Pope's head and lifted the roof of the carriage behind him.

"Next time, you won't be so lucky." As long as the sword energy of the captain of the guard just now was lowered a few inches, the pope would be separated.

"Captain..., His Majesty the King only asks you to keep them out of the capital, but does not authorize the right to kill the Pope."

"Yes, yes, if the Pope dies, the believers of the Church of Destiny will definitely make the Principality of Lyre."

The other guards were scared and quickly stopped their reckless captain.

"A group of cowards, I have been with me for so many years in vain. Those who have never been to the battlefield are indeed soft-boys!" The captain of the guard cursed without hesitation. He snorted, stared at the pope like an eagle, and said coldly: "As long as you kill him, the Church of Destiny will be without a leader. Wherever there is violence and chaos, I will lead the team to suppress it, even if the ice city is slaughtered, it will be spared!" (To be continued...)
