Wizard: You can become stronger by living life to the fullest.

Chapter 252, Section 037: The Archbishop

Just when it seemed an inevitable battle was about to begin, an invisible force suddenly descended from the sky.

For a moment, Fisher felt as if he were being firmly grasped by an invisible giant hand, his skin cells and even every pore were tightly bound by that force. He tried to resist, but he could not move at all in the face of such a powerful force.

Fisher's expression changed drastically: "High Priest!!!"

Meanwhile, his companions behind him also wore expressions of terror.

Rosie's expression was strange. Was the High Priest referring to herself?

He had seen it in ancient books. The Eternal Church was divided into priest professions in the supernatural system. However, priests and wizards were the same thing. They were both spellcasters. High priests were roughly equivalent to mid-to-high-level wizards, which matched his current strength quite well.

"It really is Sigurdsmar, but how did they do that? Could it really be time travel? Impossible! How could such magic exist?"

After pondering for a moment, Rosie spoke up, "We mean no harm, Your Excellency the High Priest."

Fisher scoffed and retorted, "No ill intent! The very existence of you unruly heretics is the greatest malice!"

Luo Xi was helpless.

He probably knew where Fisher's malice came from.

According to historical records, the supernatural system of the Sigmalama Dynasty at that time was basically controlled by the Eternal Church, which was the largest supernatural organization in the entire Sigmalama Dynasty.

They established a complete system of extraordinary abilities, and all those with extraordinary potential must cultivate and grow according to their system.

However, not all spellcasters believe their path is correct. The wizarding world should be a diverse and vibrant place, and such constraints are unacceptable to many wizards.

They have their own system, and they have their own magic to study and pursue. As a result, these wizards refused to accept the control of the Eternal Church and carried out their cultivation and learning in their own way.

Over time, considerable conflict arose between the two, and the Eternal Church once launched a campaign against them, even instigating a war. They were what the Eternal Church called heretics.

Now that Rosie and her group of extraordinary individuals have suddenly appeared in the town without any legal status, their status as heretics is undoubtedly confirmed.

Rosie frowned. "I'll repeat myself, we mean no harm."

Although he couldn't figure out exactly what was going on, Luo Xi was certain that it couldn't possibly be some kind of time travel.

According to his deduction, they had not actually returned to the Siglama Dynasty, but were in a separate space, where time was probably abnormal.

In such a special space, the high-end combat forces are probably just these oddballs in front of us. How could they possibly be able to control us?

Luo Xi came here simply to investigate the problem with this space. If these guys don't know what's good for them, he wouldn't mind using some methods to make them cooperate with him.

Just as the conflict between the two sides was beginning to escalate, a calm voice rang out.

"Alright, Fisher."

Fisher, as if he had found a savior, hurriedly shouted, "Lord Felix, there are several heretics trying to break into the Sanctuary!"

The voice was completely calm: "Alright, I understand. Let them in."

Fisher frowned. "But they are..."

Felix said, "I understand. I'll handle everything. Just do as I say."

The tense atmosphere quickly dissipated, and although Fisher still didn't have a pleasant expression, he didn't continue targeting Rosie and the others.

He said, "His Holiness the Bishop allows you to enter."

Luo Xi nodded, then tore off the static force field from his hand: "Sorry for the inconvenience."

Fisher grunted and said nothing.

Rosie didn't bother to waste any more words with him and led Jerome and the others inside.

The church doesn't look very big from the outside, but it is surprisingly spacious and magnificent inside, with gardens and courtyards, and corridors that meander everywhere, making it feel like you've entered a magnificent palace. Rosie even saw a vast forest in the middle of it.

Amazing spatial magic!

From the outside, the church probably only looks a few hundred square meters, but the interior space is larger than the entire town. It is not easy to fold and compress space to this extent.

However, the Siglamars were already very skilled in spatial magic, and many spatial magic spells in this era are even inherited from that time, so it is not surprising that they have such abilities.

Just then, a priestess wearing a white veil approached Rosie and the others: "His Highness the Bishop has sent me to take a few people over."

"oh."

Rosie and the others followed the priestess inside, and after passing through several corridors, they stopped in front of a spacious room that looked like a chapel.

The priestess said, "His Holiness the bishop is inside."

Rosie nodded and was about to go in when the priestess stopped them.

She said to Rosie, "His Holiness the Bishop only wishes to meet with you alone."

Luo Xi nodded. Now that they were here, it was impossible for the other party to have specifically called them up here to play dirty tricks.

He then said to Jerome and the others, "You wait for me here."

Jerome replied, "Yes, sir."

Angel added, "Lord Rosie, please be careful."

Rosie walked into the chapel alone.

Inside the chapel, candlelight flickered, casting dappled shadows. Solemn statues of deities hung high on the walls, below which rows of benches stood in neat rows. A faint fragrance filled the air, and the murals on the walls, with their ancient colors, were serene and sacred, inspiring awe and making one feel as if they could hear the devout prayers of the faithful.

An elderly man stood at the front, dressed in an ancient priest's robe, holding a wooden staff, walking steadily, exuding an aura of solemnity and holiness.

As he drew closer, his face became clearer to Rosie, revealing a kind and gentle countenance, with wrinkles etched on his forehead like the marks of time. His snow-white hair swayed gently, and his eyes shone with wisdom.

"Such a strong spiritual stance."

Luo Xi raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming more serious. The spiritual energy emanating from this old man was extremely dense. Although he didn't know the exact strength of the old man, he was definitely at least at the Sage level.

At the same time, the old man was also looking at Luo Xi. He looked him up and down for a while, as if he had seen something new and interesting. His eyes were full of curiosity, which made Luo Xi feel uncomfortable.

Perhaps noticing Luo Xi's expression, the old man promptly averted his gaze.

He then said in a friendly manner, "My apologies for my rudeness, but please forgive my intrusion. After all, I am also very curious about what people will be like thousands of years from now."
