Chapter 198 The Corrupted Holy Son in the Divine Script
Having heard about the Paladin Commander's appetite before, Wen Yubai witnessed firsthand just how much the Paladin Commander could eat along the way.
When they set up camp at dusk, while others were still slowly eating, his bread and jerky were already empty.
He probably realized his own appetite and was afraid of burdening the team's expenses, so the Paladin Commander deliberately restrained himself and did not ask the Holy Son for more food, but only secretly glanced at other people's bread.
One night, when Wen Yubai woke up in the middle of the night and went out for some fresh air, he happened to run into the patrolling paladin commander, who was squatting by the bushes, eating some wild fruit.
The crisp, cracking sounds were clearly audible.
The Paladin Commander gnawed at the food while scrunching up his handsome face.
Clearly, this fruit is far from delicious.
Upon noticing Wen Yubai's gaze, the Paladin Commander froze instantly, his ear tips turning slightly red. He still had the fruit in his mouth, half of his face puffed out, showing the embarrassment of being caught red-handed.
He scratched his head sheepishly, picked out a slightly larger fruit from his palm, handed it over, and coughed lightly.
"Your Highness, you're not asleep either? This fruit...it's quite juicy, would you like one?"
Why did you only get one, Yu Bai? Snatch all the fruit from his hand!
188 looked at the Paladin Commander on the screen, who seemed reluctant to part with even a single fruit, and found it somewhat amusing, so he deliberately joked with Wen Yubai.
Wen Yubai wasn't interested in fruit, but he was always happy to cooperate with 188.
He looked at the Paladin Commander, held out his hand, and said, "Give it all to me."
"what?"
The paladin commander was stunned for a moment. He looked down at the fruit in his palm, then at the holy son, hesitated for a moment, and then obediently stepped forward and handed over all the fruit.
He couldn't help but ask, "Holy Son, are you going to eat so much?"
"Um."
Wen Yubai nodded and accepted the fruit.
The fruits vary in size and are a mix of green and red; most are common wild fruits from the mountains.
He glanced around casually, his gaze settling on one of the oval-shaped fruits, which was a dark yellow color, and his brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.
Before he could take a closer look, Wen Yubai felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, followed by the feeling of a mountain pressing down on him.
"Bang!"
Without warning, the Paladin Commander fell forward. His nearly two-meter-tall, muscular body crashed down on Wen Yubai, who was caught off guard and groaned as he was crushed, almost unable to catch his breath.
Fruit was scattered all over the ground.
Now it was Wen Yubai's turn to be dumbfounded.
He struggled to push away the mountain of flesh on his body, took a breath, and reached out to check the paladin commander's breath.
He was still breathing, but he had fainted.
Wen Yubai picked up the dark red fruit and examined it carefully by the moonlight, finally remembering it.
This is a poisonous fruit. The poison is not fatal, but it makes people feel weak in the limbs and faint. They usually wake up in about a day.
Just as Wen Yubai was about to cast a healing spell, the person on the ground suddenly moved.
The Paladin Commander opened his eyes groggily, his gaze unfocused for a few seconds, before he saw Wen Yubai squatting beside him.
"Hey, Holy Son, what are you still doing here?" He propped himself up on the ground and sat up, scratching the back of his head.
Wen Yubai remained silent.
That's a really bad question. Does it mean that if you're lying here unconscious, some wild animal might bite you?
"You just fainted."
Wen Yubai picked up the culprit with a blank expression and shoved it in front of the Holy Knight Commander, "This fruit is poisonous, don't eat it."
He recalled that the temple offered specialized herbal training courses and regular field training activities to improve the clergy's survival skills in the wild.
Judging from the paladin's appearance, it was clear that he hadn't taken the lessons to heart at all.
The Paladin Commander grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth: "I know."
"You know?"
"Yes, don't worry, Holy Son, I can handle the food. This little bit of poison is nothing to me. I'll just sleep for a while, and I'll feel great when I wake up."
Wen Yubai: ...
So they're treating poisonous fruit like a sleeping pill and a stimulant?
He placed the wild fruit in his hand on him.
"You can have them all."
-
We haven't even reached the northern neighbor yet, and these priests have already suffered so much, especially the Holy Knight Commander, who is so hungry that he's eating poisonous fruit.
Wen Yubai was clutching a huge sum of seven gold coins, and it was definitely unrealistic to spend them all before reaching his destination.
However, if all the money were used to improve the priests' travel arrangements and treatment, these people would live more comfortably, and the guilt of not having money to do things in Stone Village would be shared among everyone.
Then he would gain a reputation for being considerate of his subordinates, a reputation he cannot accept.
We need to find a balance.
Wen Yubai planned to take them out for a good meal and spend money to improve their food and lodging when they passed through certain towns. Once they arrived at Stone Village, he would let them suffer hardship, as the hardship later would be enough to offset the sweetness beforehand.
When the team passed through a nearby town, Wen Yubai stopped to rest.
The long-awaited hot food and clean lodgings brought a look of surprise to the faces of the weary priests.
The priests were filled with emotion.
This holy son may seem cold, taciturn, and aloof, but he is actually quite perceptive.
The Paladin Commander, in particular, ate to his heart's content, finding the Holy Son increasingly handsome, and the meat in his mouth tasted even better.
The next morning, several priests came to ask for instructions.
"Your Holiness, the sun shines brightly today. Why don't we go out into the streets to preach and pray for blessings, hold a simple ceremony, and proclaim the grace of the divine light?"
That would be terrible! Wen Yubai had absolutely no desire to do something like gathering faith for the Temple of Light.
The priest had barely finished speaking when he was interrupted.
"Need not."
The priests looked at each other, some wondering, "You can go on pilgrimages; they preach along the way. Even if the faith is weak, you can still accumulate a little more."
Faced with everyone's questions, Wen Yubai had already prepared his answer.
"In the past, faith has relied on sincerity, not coercion. If they do not believe, no matter how much we say, it will be in vain."
"So what are we supposed to do?" a young priest couldn't help but ask.
Wen Yubai uttered two words casually: "Shopping."
"Go shopping...?" The priests thought they had misheard.
"Yes, no priest's robes allowed. Change into civilian clothes, spread out, and observe people's lives to understand their suffering."
Wen Yubai spoke nonsense with a straight face, "The God of Light is great and merciful, teaching us to understand suffering. How can we preach to them if we don't understand them first?"
Although the priests looked bewildered, seeing the Holy Son's unfathomable expression, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept the order:
"Yes, Your Majesty."
-
The town was small, and a group of outsiders mingled among the crowd. Even in civilian clothes, their demeanor was completely out of place with the locals.
A group of clergy members thought they were being low-key, but in reality, anyone who paid a little attention could easily spot their unusual behavior.
In the corner, two sharp-eyed young men identified the group of people.
They exchanged a glance, one of them staying to follow a certain priest, while the other hurriedly ran away.
