Don't call me evil god

Chapter 891: Duality of Looseness and Tightness

Seeing Pete and the others, Kenredin's stern expression finally relaxed and he revealed a friendly smile:

"Ah! Warriors, heroes, you are finally here."

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

Pete bowed, and Miranda and Lancelot did the same.

Kenredin clapped his hands, turned his head and shouted, "Mr. Watcher."

As soon as the words fell, the wooden door leading to the side room of the castle hall was quickly opened from the other side.

An elderly man walked slowly into the hall.

An unconscious person was suspended in the air behind him, as if tied to his body by an invisible kite string, always keeping a fixed distance from the old man.

The face of the unconscious person was very familiar to Pete and his friends!

Harris Eugene!
The old man's iconic vertical pupils and bony fingers also revealed his identity.

The dragon who arrived at the battlefield at the critical moment and rebuilt the barrier of [Past Glory] by his own strength!

Although the other party showed up with a group of dragons and flew away with Harris Eugene with the [Barrier Core] after the matter was done, he did not have any conversation with the seekers of knowledge from beginning to end.

But through the "mission instructions" sent down by Nowen, the believers at the scene all knew the name of the old dragon.

Van Cleot Fafnir!
Pete's eyes narrowed.

His guess was correct.

The fact that the other party appeared here meant that the relationship between the dragon and the Reyak royal family was closer than he imagined.

Then King Kenreddin would definitely not be completely unaware of Harris Eugene's plans!
Everybody knows.

Dragons master dragon language magic, including a unique prophecy magic that allows them to sometimes glimpse fragments of the future.

A few months ago, the dragon even went to the capital to warn Kenredin, reminding him in advance that this time the red tide of monsters will bring "monsters far beyond the ordinary".

From the results.

The dragon's prediction was absolutely correct!

Whether it is the coming of the greedy wizard Eurystheus or the vicious mountain of flesh outside Turin.

These two super-class monsters are indeed far beyond the ordinary!
Not to mention the King's Army and the Crusaders, even the dragon army brought by Vancro Fafnir was unable to deal with Ultis and the Vicious Meat Mountain. They were also helpless against them.

Otherwise, King Kenredin wouldn't have to consider taking a detour to evacuate or picking up the enemy halfway. Wouldn't it be better to just kill the vicious meat mountain directly?
……

Van Claude Favnir walked into the hall, raised his thin and long right hand, and uttered a few syllables that sounded extremely awkward to Pate and others:
"Endrehi."

A translucent lavender barrier spread out from Van Croat as the center, passing through the bodies of Pete and the others, and only stopped expanding after it almost covered the entire castle hall.

"Silent field?"

Pete could vaguely feel an effect similar to the 4th-level magic [Silent Field] from this barrier, but the effect of this magic was obviously more complicated.

Dragon magic, no doubt.

Van Crowe looked the three of them up and down carefully.

When it was Lancelot's turn, he felt a little awkward for some reason.

This kind of gaze gave him an inexplicable sense of "awe", making him want to worship the giant dragon in human form in front of him.

Lancelot bit his lower lip, trying hard to suppress the inexplicable thoughts that surged in his mind.

It wasn't until Van Croat looked away that he felt better.

"King Mokred, are you sure you want to tell them?"

The old dragon's voice sounded very old.

Hoarse, deep, and somewhat mysterious. Kenreddin looked at Pete and the other two.

"Three."

"I wish to share an important secret with you."

"This is a matter of great importance. Before you learn this secret, I need you to swear an oath in the name of the god you believe in, the great god of knowledge, Norwin."

"Please swear an oath that you will not reveal the secret to anyone else until the right opportunity comes."

Pete was stunned.

This situation is different from what he expected!

Having previously learned about the plan to organize the people to evacuate the city of Turin, Pete thought that King Kenreddin intended to entrust the seekers of knowledge in the Kalezi area to help complete the escort mission during the evacuation.

How did it suddenly become like telling them a shocking secret? !
The Kingdom of Reyak is full of talented people. Although it is difficult to find top-notch rank 6 legendary senior professionals, there are still many powerful professionals with rank 5 strength.

Although it was remarkable that Pete and his friends had become 4th-level mages and priests at their age, they were not worthy of knowing such an extremely important secret, right? !

This is not Pete being self-deprecating.

When they were previously invited to the capital by the king, it was as an award from the heroes of the kingdom and an invitation from the nobles.

Looks like a big hit.

In fact, they were kept in the dark quite a bit of the time.

Judging from the results afterwards, the series of plans to investigate Rune Monge were almost under the watchful eyes of King Kenreddin throughout the entire process, ensuring that there would be no omissions or mistakes in their actions.

To put it bluntly, they were actually being used by Kenredin Mokred as a tool to clean up the kingdom's long-standing ills without realizing it.

Although it is a win-win result in the end.

But in terms of pattern, Pete and his team are obviously still a lot lower.

"Tell us? An important secret?!"

Pete did not agree impulsively immediately, but cautiously confirmed: "Your Majesty, do you think we should know this secret? Why... us?"

Kenredin was silent for a moment, then smacked his lips, a rare gesture.

"Mr. Chinal, you made a mistake."

"My original intention was to hand over this secret to a senior member of the Church of Knowledge. It would be even better if it was a leader or manager."

"But up to now, the Church of Knowledge has not established a complete hierarchy or management system."

Pete was suddenly embarrassed.

Because Kenreddin was right!

Although the number of Seeking Knowledge believers has grown to several thousand, they do not have any clear hierarchy or management system like other churches.

All believers can get guidance directly from Noven, without having to ask for advice or follow senior believers.

The Church of Knowledge has always been a rather loose force, as can be seen from this time's red tide of monsters.

Some people were on the diversion line destroying the large number of monsters rushing out of the Dark Forest, some were helping to guard Dawn City, and even some who were not good at fighting were still running workshops and industries.

If there were no mission calls issued by Nowen, the believers would basically be in a state of "each doing their own thing".

When there is a common mission goal, there is no need for anyone to stand up and call for action, everyone will immediately unite and take action.

An organization that has both "loose" and "tight" characteristics.

There really is only the Church of Seeking Knowledge!
The only one!
