Chapter 99 Feeling rebellious
Looking at the guard who was enjoying the "vacation life" outside the east church, Chen Fan felt bad.

Surrounded? Like a siege.

Attacked? Such as attack.

Was the rebellion suppressed? Like a town.

"This... this is not an option if it continues like this!"

Chen Fan watched with a blank expression as one of the guards took out dry food and water from his backpack and lit a bonfire on the spot. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

He finally understood the situation.

The other party was also afraid of the thugs who were retreating in the east church.

This can be seen from the huge encirclement constructed by the guards - there is an extremely wide buffer zone between the entire encirclement and the East Church.

Not to mention the encirclement, even the range of activities of the guards has a clear dividing line with the East Church.

Never take the initiative to cross the line, never take the initiative to stir up trouble, this is the attitude expressed by the guards.

As for why...

The corpses of the clergy who fell on the ground were probably the main reason.

These guards just want to complete the instructions given by the Pope, and they don't want to risk their lives for it!

After realizing this, Chen Fan also had crooked thoughts in his mind.

Now he only has a small pistol in his hand. Although this pistol is a bit more powerful, it does not change the fact that it is just a pistol.

And the other party...not to mention anything else, just the thousands of guards were enough to make Chen Fan fearful.

"We have to find a way to get these guards to leave..."

Taking advantage of the cover of the North Church, Chen Fan carefully looked at the guards around the East Church.

"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult..."

Isa's voice came from beside her: "These guards only listen to the Pope's orders. Unless you can get the Pope to give the order again, otherwise..."

As she spoke, Isa sighed softly and shook her head helplessly.

Chen Fan's expression has become strange.

pope?

"Is it possible..." Chen Fan slowed down his tone as much as possible, "The Pope is dead?"

Isa: "...?"

A few minutes later.

Isa stepped out of the shadows of the North Church and walked cautiously toward the East Church.

Under the dim sky, Isha, whose figure was shrouded in a black robe, exuded a mysterious aura.

……

"Holt."

Bailey moved his lips, and the dirty beards around him trembled slightly: "Relax, nothing will happen."

"Look at the other guards, they're like that too, aren't they?"

Listening to Bailey's words, Holt's face showed some confusion.

Perhaps because he had just been transferred to the "establishment", Holt still had some enthusiasm in his heart - for the guards, guarding the Wall of Sighs under the direct jurisdiction of the Pope was the highest honor.

"But……"

Holt tried to refute the wisdom of the old-timers: "The Pope is over there watching us. Wouldn't the Pope be disappointed in us?"

As he spoke, he subconsciously pointed in the direction of the North Church.

A black shadow slowly came from the North Church in the distance and caught his eye.

"……priest?!"

Before Holt could speak, Bailey, who had always been with the old god, got up from the ground and waved to interrupt the laughter of the guards around him: "Get up! Everyone stand up!"

"A priest is coming!!" "Priest? Why is there a priest?"

"Shouldn't they be killed by those rebellious thugs?"

"Damn...who said there are no free clergy in Varela?!"

For a moment, the original laughter turned into deliberately suppressed curses.

This is normal.

Although the guardians of the Wall of Sighs are only under the jurisdiction of the Pope, their status in Varela is only higher than that of ordinary believers and white-robed deacons.

These guards must maintain the necessary respect when facing the priests.

Not to mention that the priest appeared in the North Church, the area where the Pope lives!

This made the guards even more uneasy.

They never imagined that the East Church was so brainless that the Pope actually hid a priest in the North Church.

Is there really only one priest in such a large northern church?

When this question came to the minds of the guards, their uneasiness became more intense!
"Dear Priest."

Seeing that the petite black-robed priest was about to approach him, Bailey stretched out his hand to straighten his armor and took a step forward: "What instructions did the Pope ask you to bring?"

Isa raised her head slightly and took a closer look at the guard in front of her under the cover of her wide hood.

She frowned slightly and carefully recalled what Chen Fan told her.

"The Lord has sent an oracle, the rebellion has basically subsided, and those believers who were bewitched are innocent."

With her previous experience of lying in front of bishops and archbishops, Isa said without any psychological pressure: "The Pope sent me to the East Church to persuade those bewitched believers."

Bailey was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at the body of the priest lying in a pool of blood with a strange expression.

innocent?

Are you sure this word is used to describe those crazy thugs?

Although he was puzzled, due to Isa's identity, Bailey silently took half a step back and gave way to the East Church.

"As you wish, Lord Priest."

……

Seeing Isa stepping over various wreckage and bloody water step by step, Bailey shook his head with a sigh on his face.

"Yeah, another one rushing to die."

"Death?"

Holt was stunned and subconsciously asked: "Why do you say that?"

Before he finished speaking, Holt looked at the broken limbs scattered on the ground and suddenly woke up: "Why didn't you stop her?!"

"She is a priest!"

Bailey sneered, and the wrinkles on his face wrinkled up: "Why do you need to remind me?"

"Just in time, we can also take this opportunity to see if there are any other clergy in the North Church."

"if there is not……"

The wrinkles on Bailey's face deepened again: "I've had enough of those days guarding the Wall of Sighs!!"

Holt looked at Bailey in front of him and felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.

He understood what Bailey meant!
This old man wants to use this opportunity to gain higher power and status!

Even use this to break free from the constraints of the Pope!
What's the difference between this and those rebellious thugs? ! !
No, it’s not just Pele!
Holt turned and looked around.

The moment Bailey finished speaking, the surrounding guards smiled in agreement!
Obviously, they have the same plan in mind! !
Holt gritted his teeth secretly, feeling a little conflicted in his heart.

Driven by this resistance, he stepped forward: "Master Priest, the thugs are fierce. For your safety, please allow me to serve as your guard!"

The moment the words fell, the surroundings suddenly fell into dead silence.
