Chapter 1958: Chapter 629: Temple Knights (Part 3)
“Long time no see, Your Eminence, Your Grace.” Pope Brut greeted Old Liu and Helen with a harmless smile.
“With AIDS smeared honey, my esteemed Grace.” Old Liu and Helen greeted with a graceful chest bow, their expressions as pleasant as a spring breeze, while the little fox subtly nudged Old Liu’s arm.
Liu Zhenshock had actually noticed long ago that those who came with the Red Robe Great Sacrificial Priest, part of the Sacred Altar Sacrificial Ceremony, each had several ancient Medusa Badges on their chests, at least ten pieces for each person, all carrying very antique designs.
“What on earth is this old scoundrel up to?” Old Liu frowned secretly in his heart, thinking about so many ancient Medusa Badges evidently implying that the Pope and his Grace had dug out the ancient merit badge from under the floor tiles of the various Main Temples—this is precisely what puzzles Liu Zhenshock most, as many of these ceremonial badges hidden beneath the temple floor tiles are empty, and only a few still contain magical pets in hibernation boundaries; these magical creatures, though asleep, do not possess eternal life, having gone years without eating or drinking, they should have expired long ago; even if some exceptionally powerful and long-lived creatures remain, what’s the point in unleashing them? It’s unheard of for magical pets to obey the instructions of other priests!
“Could it be that this old gecko is after top-grade Magic Crystals?” Liu Zhenshock contemplated and was left with only this possibility, but if it truly were so, then why would Brut His Grace make it so ostentatious? Although the country is in crisis and everything can be done with discretion, desecrating the merit badges is not a very honorable action after all, he could very well have done it discreetly, with no need for such fanfare.
“First, allow me to thank Your Eminence and the Summer Palace for the immortal contributions made to the kingdom, because the pre-recorded Dewei Crystal Cards from you ensured that the new type of war songs invented by the Jose family were not lost within the kingdom after Smey Clan independence; simultaneously, thanks to your generous provision of Dewei war songs, all our priests can learn war songs and war dances anytime, anywhere!” The Red Robe Great Sacrificial Priest proactively hugged Old Liu’s arm, as if their relationship was as sweet as honey: “I also wish to report to Your Eminence and Your Grace a piece of good news, the Temple Knights’ priests have already mastered the ‘Wasteland Aura’ and the third verse of ‘Spirit Communion Song’ played with amplification instruments, and in due time, we will surely learn the ‘Great Wind Song’ this powerful light aura war song!”
“Years carry your greatness, time cannot count your virtues.” The priests affiliated with the Temple Knights noisily paid shoulder tribute to Old Liu: “Thank you, Your Eminence, for providing us with the Guoguo Badge.”
The Guoguo Badge is a plant pet badge made from space Magic Rubber; without this badge, these priests would need to carry large flower pots to traverse lands with their magic plant pets; the “Wasteland Aura” is the worldly war song “Sea Wave Song” invented by Smey Duke Bruckner; this song, structured in Mongolian, can draw vitality from flora and fauna to benefit priests or mages’ elemental power, effectively robbing Flower Elves of their livelihood; the third verse of “Spirit Communion Song” mastered by Liu Zhenshock can summon magical plant pets or “Order Aura” to direct ordinary berserk warriors’ attack paths; Smey Clan’s division of the motherland is undeniable, but the genius priests from their lineage also made unparalleled contributions to the Bimon Kingdom, merits that should not be erased.
Yet, at this very moment, Pope His Grace’s courtesy is half genuine gratitude to Old Liu, and the other half is bragging about the temple priests’ talent.
Compared to the hundred young priests of the Summer Palace Guard, the hundred-plus dedicated priests of the “Sunset Glory” Temple Knights are seasoned Scepter Shamans and Gold Robe High Priests skilled in song art and adept with magical pets, summoning magic plant pets with their inherent appeal instead of seeking Ventéclair’s help, far superior to the young Cambridge Priests.
“You’re welcome, we’re all servants of the God of War, I’m merely doing what I ought to do, may the primary force be with you all.” Liu Zhenshock waved his hand faintly, feeling more and more puzzled. Why wasn’t Pope His Grace staying in the Royal Capital Sabak to assist in defense, instead running off to Witherspoon? Although the magic teleportation array makes coming and going convenient, what is his intention in doing so? Could it be that His Majesty the King is afraid he won’t follow orders, thus sending him here in disguise?
The departure of this temple bigwig weakens the sacrificial strength at Sabak before the war, doesn’t it?
Liu Zhenshock had already handed more than two thousand Burqin magic bulls to His Majesty the King before the war, but he didn’t believe that just these two thousand Tauren could replace the significant role of priests.
With a hidden gesture, Moer immediately caught on, squeezing through the crowd and retrieved the bone link, dialing Sal His Majesty’s coordinates.
“Your Eminence, when can you provide us with some more Pearl Seven-stringed Lyres, so priests can practice the ‘Tears of Dingdong Harmony’?” Pope Brut looked at Old Liu smilingly.
Without the Pearl Seven-stringed Lyre, “Tears of Dingdong Harmony,” this powerful Sonic Blade war song, cannot be practiced, and who in the whole kingdom possesses large quantities of pearls?
None other than the Shaman of Divine Songs who fiercely extorted a fortune from Seia Sea Country!
