The hero I support will definitely defeat the devil

"You should ask your teacher about this matter. She should be able to tell you, but you have never asked. With your status in the Wind Church and your devotion to God, there are very few secrets that cannot be shared with you."

Aini said with a smile.

"But if that's the case, then I remember that several gods don't seem to be human?"

Penos asked doubtfully.

"It's not like humans are the only ones who can be heroes."

Aini shook her head.

"Besides, in the distant past, the definition of human beings was not the same as it is now. All races with human form and intelligence could be called human beings."

"Aini knows a lot."

Penos said admiringly.

"You will gradually find out in the future."

But knowing too much is not a good thing.

At least it's impossible to get out of it now.

Annie sighed inwardly.

"I understand."

In fact, Penos had another question, but she didn't ask it.

Why are there eleven heroes but only eight gods?

Chapter 76 The crisis has not yet been resolved

Inside the Dragon's Breath.

Less than two minutes after Annie and Penos left, Lisha came to ask about the two people's origins.

"Sister Olivia, who are they?"

Lisha came close to Olivia.

"Don't rub the oil on me!"

Olivia frowned and warned Lisha.

"Hehe~"

Lisha put down her greasy hands that were trying to grab Olivia’s clothes.

"Sister Olivia!~~~"

"Don't talk to me in that tone!"

Olivia's frown deepened.

"The nun from the Earth Church just now is named Aini. She is an acquaintance of mine. But I don't know her very well. As for the other little girl, you don't need to worry about her. She is just a talented newcomer from the Wind Church."

"But I saw that the nun from the Earth Church seemed to be wearing the clothing of the Life Church, and it was a bishop's robe that only a bishop could wear."

Ilsa came over and wiped Lisha's hands with a wet handkerchief, and raised her doubts at the same time.

Although the relations among the eight churches are relatively good, isn't it a bit too provocative to the Church of Life for a nun from the Church of the Earth to parade around in the bishop's clothing of the Church of Life?

"That guy used to be the bishop of the Church of Life, but for some reason he gave up his position as the bishop of the Church of Life forty years ago and became a nun of the Church of the Earth. This incident caused quite a stir at the time, but it was eventually suppressed by the popes of both churches."

Olivia actually found it hard to understand what Annie did.

Especially after becoming a nun of the Church of the Earth, she still likes to wear the bishop's robe of the Church of Life when walking around. This shows that she really does not take the Church of Life seriously.

"As for what you said, perhaps only Aini and the gods know about it. But I think there must be some special reason. After all, it has been forty years, and I have never seen the followers of the Church of Life cause trouble for her."

"Forty years? Does that mean this Sister Annie is already very old?"

Lisha asked curiously.

"Who knows? Anyway, she looked like this when I met her thirty years ago."

Olivia wasn't sure how old Annie was.

But she couldn't be too young. After all, forty years ago, Annie was the bishop of the Life Church. Few people who could become bishops were younger than fifty years old.

It is not because one cannot become a bishop before the age of fifty, but because a bishop needs to do a lot of things, which will distract from the time of practice and prayer. Therefore, the eight major churches will not let the geniuses of their own churches take up such positions too early. Generally, those with relatively average talents and older age are allowed to take up this kind of clerical positions.

"Sister Olivia, do you know the details of the demonic disaster at the end of this year?"

Lisha looked at Olivia's sharp eyes, swallowed the words after "How old are you this year?", and asked about the situation of the demonic disaster instead.

"You don't have to worry about that."

Olivia looked at the others who were also concerned about this matter, and said in a calm tone.

"A small team like yours, which is a mix of Steel Rank and Hematite Rank, will only be sent to the periphery of Blackstone Fortress to clean up the weak monsters that escaped from the White Tower in groups of two or three. There will be no danger. The monster torrents that attack the front of Blackstone Fortress will naturally be stopped by the Silver Rank, Gold Rank, and even Gem Rank adventurers."

"What about the Legendary tier?"

Lisha discovered that Olivia didn’t seem to mention the legendary level.

"The number of monsters attacking the Black Stone Fortress was already reduced by the Legendary level in the White Tower."

Olivia told the truth.

"That is to say, those super demonic disasters that occurred every ten or hundred years were caused by..."

Ilsa seemed to have thought of something.

"Do you think there are no legendary monsters in such a vast space in the White Tower? The only reason for those super-large demonic disasters is that the legendary monsters that were originally dormant awakened. The legends of the Endrol continent went to stop the legendary monsters in the White Tower. So the other monsters that were left unattended naturally ran out in droves."

Olivia explained the reason to everyone.

"Sister Olivia, have you ever seen a legendary rank take action?"

Lisha was very curious about what kind of strength the legendary level had.

"I've seen it."

Although Olivia said this, she did not say what the scene was like.

"Okay, you guys should get ready, especially Lisha and the others. Go get me some good equipment first! Do you want to welcome the coming of the demonic disaster like this? It would be better to run out of the White Tower area before the time is up, so as not to die in the demonic disaster."

Olivia waved her hand and said impatiently.

"Yes!"

Lisha nodded vigorously.

"Well, there is one more thing, and it has to do with you."

Olivia seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Xi Ruiya.

"Try to go out as little as possible recently. If you go out, you should let Freya accompany you, otherwise you will be easily killed by some guys who want to collect the bounty."

"How is this going?"

Shiriya, who was originally feeling depressed about the tragic reason for her family's annihilation, asked in surprise after hearing Olivia's warning.

"Don't forget that in the eyes of some people, the Skawen family still has one heir left."

Olivia held up a finger.

"Those damn guys!"

Apparently Xi Ruiya quickly figured out the reason.

Although with the annihilation of the Skawen family, most of its family assets were divided up by the nobles of nearby territories.

But they did not dare to go too far, after all, there was still a legitimate heir alive in the Skawen family.

So if Xi Ruiya went back to inherit the estate now, she would not only get the earl's title, but also the entire Skawen Territory. Although she lost a lot of things, the most important titles and territories were still there. Therefore, Xi Ruiya would not cause trouble to those nobles. Later, those nobles would send back some things that were of little use to them, which was considered to repair the relationship between the two parties. As long as they had the same interests, they would still be grasshoppers on the same rope.

However, this premise is that Xi Ruiya can return safely.

It can be said that all the surrounding nobles who are eager to swallow up the fat piece of meat of Skawen County will not want Xi Ruiya to come back alive. Even the subordinate nobles who once pledged allegiance to the Skawen family.

It would be better to say that they wanted Xi Ruiya to die the most, because in this way they could completely divide up Skawen Territory and become the masters.

Even the king might not want Xi Ruiya to live, because the existence of a real earl like the Skawen family is a huge obstacle to the king's control of the kingdom. The king would like all the nobles to be court nobles without fiefs, so that he would be the master of the entire kingdom and the only lord of the kingdom.

"They must have hired a lot of assassins to kill you."

Freya knew all this very well because she had experienced many assassinations when she was White.

After all, no noble wants to see his neighbor rise.

"I know."

Xi Ruiya pursed her lips, thinking about how to deal with this matter.

Testimonials

On the shelves.

Thinking back to the first time I put the product on the shelves, I was very nervous and anxious.

Now, it seems like I don’t feel anything at all.

After all, this is the fourth time it’s been put on the shelves.

I still don’t have many collections, but I’m used to it.

I will try to update four times after the book goes on sale on Friday, with a guaranteed three updates. This is probably my limit.

Recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, blades, rewards, etc., if you have them, please give them. If you don’t have them, that’s fine too. But at least leave a note so that I know I’m not a single player.

I think I am a reputable person.

A free book of one million words, two books on the shelf of one million words, and a book on the shelf of two million words.

I have finished the book well.

Even when the subscriptions were in single digits, I never gave up.

I dare not say how wonderful the stories I write are, but I will try my best to write good stories.

I wouldn't dare say that I never update continuously, but if I do, I will ask for leave and explain the reason.

As long as there are people reading and subscribing, I will work hard to write and finish it.

Thank you to every book friend who supports me and this book. Thank you for your support! ~

Chapter 77: Counterattack

"If an assassin is bound to come and kill you, when do you think it's most likely to happen?"

Ilsa thought of the demonic disaster that would happen two weeks later and asked Shiriya.

"When is the most likely time?"

Xi Ruiya was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly realized.

"Yes, isn't two weeks from now the best opportunity?!"

Using the magic disaster two weeks later to assassinate Xi Ruiya, even if Xi Ruiya is killed, it can be blamed on the monsters, creating a perception that Xi Ruiya died accidentally due to the magic disaster. After all, Xi Ruiya is indeed weak. Moreover, when the magic disaster occurs, the defense forces of the three towns around the White Tower will be concentrated in the Black Stone Fortress, that is, the Black Jade Town. At that time, the defense force of the White Stone Town will definitely be weakened to a considerable extent. Then a few fish slipped through the net and entered the White Stone Town, and one of them killed the weak and poor Xi Ruiya. Isn't it a common accident?

“But they probably didn’t expect that Xi Ruiya had the power of the golden level?”

Lisha’s words made everyone smile.

Although Olivia was supposed to go to Blackstone Fortress to guard it, Freya was not an adventurer now. Her identity as White had even put her on the death list, which meant that no one knew that there was actually a gold-level professional guarding Shiriya in Dragon's Breath.

Even if someone investigated, they probably wouldn't find anything. They would just think Freya was a newcomer to Dragon's Breath, and it would be impossible to discover that this seemingly weak girl was actually a strong gold-level warrior.

Unless the other party sends a gold-level professional to assassinate Xi Ruiya, Xi Ruiya will be fine.

But there is a prerequisite here, that is, Xi Ruiya cannot stay too far away from Freya.

Otherwise, with the methods of those assassins, Freya might not be able to make it in time.

This is also the reason why Olivia reminded Shiriya not to go out recently, and even if she goes out, she must be accompanied by Freya.

Because Xi Ruiya's strength is still too weak, let alone the fine steel level professionals, even the stronger red iron level professionals can kill Xi Ruiya in seconds.

After all, Xi Ruiya is not even an adventurer, and she hasn't even changed her job.
