Chapter 8 St. Grant's Fort

"call……"

Seeing the fierce and vicious mercenary leaving, Aoun, Lei Luo and several knights couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Orn extinguished the fireball in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "The name of a magician is really useful, it is much more frightening than a scholar. Finally, it scared them. I don't want to die on the way to the Grand Academy of Natural Sciences!"

"Angartula Krelina Yesusa..."

The elf girl came to the front of several people, and spoke elf words with tears in her eyes. She stood at a loss, and tears in her eyes might fall off at any time.

When Orn saw Lei Luo, who was still stiff on the side, he joked: "Hey, okay, okay, they have left, please give me a notebook soon. I'll find out if there is any book about Elf Word in the space box."

The knights got off their horses, took off their helmets, and wiped the nervous sweat from their foreheads.

The female knight looked at this beautiful elf girl, looking at her helpless look, and immediately felt full of sympathy. She turned around and looked at Aoun who was searching for elf language books in the space box and said, "She needs clothes and food more than elf language!"

"ah?"

Orn suddenly said, "I forgot everything!"

On the side, Lei Luo had just come back to his senses from the nervous confrontation, but at this moment he was stunned again because of the space box in Orn's hand.

Aoun took out a box the size of a makeup box, and after opening it, he took out dozens of books and miscellaneous things. It seemed as if there was infinite space inside the box.

After a while.

After drinking some water and eating some soft bread, the elf girl in the clothes looked at everyone with gratitude and kept saying elf words. Orn was sweating profusely and translated, but he only barely translated a few words, which was not sure, which also allowed Lei Luo to see the more real side of Orn.

"That... I know some elves."

Lei Luo, who had not spoken, suddenly whispered.

Everyone suddenly became quiet and looked at Lei Luo in amazement.

Seeing everyone looking at him like this, Lei Luo said with a red face: "When I was studying in the church, I was determined to become a missionary, serve the great God of Light for life, and go to remote areas to sow light, so I learned some elves, but it was just the simplest part."

"Why didn't you say it earlier? I'm embarrassed!"

Orn complained, releasing the book of Elf Language that he had hardly ever read.

But Lei Luo seemed to be deeply hit and said in a low voice: "Because, I have lost my faith."

As he said that, Lei Luo took out the Bauhinia badge and "Evolutionary Secrets" in unbelievable situation, looked at Orn and said, "My father gave me this."

"The Contribution Badge of the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences!"

Orn recognized the badge in Lei Luo's hand at a glance. He was stunned at first, then reacted and said in surprise: "Classmate?"

Several people were shocked by Lei Luo one after another. Unexpectedly, the civilian who was casually accompanied on the roadside was a scholar who went to the Grand Academy of Natural Sciences to register!

Lero sighed: "The pioneers of Antonio said that the progress of knowledge lies in the process of constant self-doubt, while pious faith requires constant firmness of oneself, so both can never be both. I...betrayed the faith."

Lei Luo's tone was a little disappointed.

Aoun said excitedly, "If I had believed in the God of Light, I would have asked my father to dedicate the gold coins I had spent these years to my study and experiment to the church to change the title! Compared to faith in the God of Light, the boring recitation of the ceremony of Light day after day, I would have excited me even more! They felt sorry for me without faith, and I felt sorry for them to be ignorant! Hahaha!"

For a moment, the elf girl who should have been the protagonist turned into Lei Luo.

Orn continued: "It's great, we will be classmates in the future! You have a badge of contributions. After you arrive at the college, the college should arrange an enlightenment tutor for you. Are you planning to study the mystery of evolution?"

Looking at the enthusiastic and excited Aoun, Lei Luo responded, "Uh? I don't know either. But let's talk while walking. It would be bad if the mercenaries come back. By the way, I would also ask this elf...ma., what happened."

"Yes, OK!"

Orn suddenly responded.

Everyone packed up the camp, and Lei Luo and the elf girl followed Orn into the carriage and continued to advance under the escort of four knights.

As the sun gradually rises, the heavy fog in the forest gradually dissipates.

Along the way, Lei Luo used his almost never-used elf language to communicate with the elf girl constantly. With sign language gestures, he finally figured out the other person's life experience.

"My name is Krelina, from the Moon Tree Tribe. When I was out to collect honey, those bad guys caught me and brought me here. Huh, I'm so scared..."

It was indeed an elf female slave who was captured and sold by those mercenaries!

"Captain Barcelona guessed right. For the sake of gold coins, this group of crazy mercenaries actually built their happiness on the pain of others. They captured innocent elf girls as slaves to those corrupt nobles, satisfying their lust + evil + desires, and damaging the reputation of the principality!"

The female archer outside the carriage gritted her teeth and kept slapping the elf girl's shoulders through the curtains, comforting her heartache. At the same time, she looked at Orn with admiration and admired Aun's rationality and justice.

Orn said: "Those mercenaries are abominable, but the really abominable ones are the corrupt nobles who raise elves slaves! I have long heard of some corrupt nobles who have devout faith in the God of Light on the surface, but they do some dirty things behind their backs. They are as evil and depraved as wizards in the Dark Age!"

Lei Luo opened his mouth, but heard the word "wizard" but didn't know what to say.

The dark age of wizards raging to the world has long become history, an era ruled by the Church of Light, at least human beings have maintained a beautiful side on the surface.

As the only true god believed in by mankind, the God of Light has completely saved mankind from the years full of fear of death. The wizards accompanied the Black Death they created, have disappeared forever in the burning stolen frame, leaving only some remains that can no longer be filled with wind and waves, tremblingly hiding in the shadows in the corner, trying their best to hide themselves.

Aoun did not notice the abnormality of Leilo and solemnly said to the elf girl: "I swear with the honor of the Ridge Family that I will send you back to your home safely. I apologize to you for the Principality of Gran. Please believe that those dirty and corrupt nobles are only a few. Most of the humans living on this land have a soul that insists on light, justice, and beautiful!"

"Thank you...thank you!"

At this moment, the elf girl finally completely relaxed, looking at the justice-filled Aoun, looking at the difficult translation of Lei Luo, looking at the sympathetic female knight outside the window, shed tears of gratitude.

...

Two days later.

With the sound of horse hooves trampling on the bluestone road, Lero and others finally arrived at the capital of the Principality of Gran, St. Gran Castle.

Although there are countless mankind city-states established around the Eurola Empire of Light, there are only six large principalities of scale. The Principality of Gran is one of the six large principalities among the numerous human priests.

The town of Agate Lake is located in the hinterland of the Principality. It took Lero less than three days to arrive at St. Granburg, but Orn had taken eight days to come all the way, which shows the area of ​​the Principality.

Only in these large principalities can we have enough financial resources to build the Royal Academy of Natural Sciences, establish the Royal Academicians' Committee, establish mercenary associations, etc., offset the ruling power of some churches and give the royal family more abundant secular rights.

As for the numerous small countries, they often have extremely harsh beliefs, and the idea of ​​pursuing truth and freedom has never been truly enlightened. Atheists are heretics. The so-called kings are far less important than the church in the hearts of ordinary people, so they naturally have no ability to build academies of science and produce so-called magicians and scholars.

Dong...

The grand bell rang.

Through the carriage curtains, Lero looked through the gorgeously decorated passers-by on both sides of the street, looking at the St. Granborough Cathedral of Light in the distance, and couldn't help but lose his mind and murmured: "It's so magnificent."

Pure white dome marble church, with a height of 100 meters!

From a distance, the church seemed to be shrouded in golden glow, which was almost condensed into substantial holy light, gathered on the top of the church that could be called art in every inch.

As the bell rang, passers-by stopped their things and made prayer gestures, even the young knights responsible for escorting Orn.

"It's indeed great, the God of Light always likes miracles."

Only the middle-aged knight leader echoed.

Lei Luo noticed that although the other party bowed slightly, he did not pray.

He noticed Daoleluo's eyes, the middle-aged knight leader's metal helmet, his eyes still had the rational brilliance of self-thinking, and said calmly: "I believe in the goddess of wisdom."

The Goddess of Wisdom is one of the many gods under the true God of Light.

Then the middle-aged knight leader looked at the elf girl beside Orn again, and showed some love in his serious eyes. He continued to Lei Luo: "After you and the young master sign up at the academy, we will be responsible for sending her to the Mercenary Association and posting corresponding tasks to ensure that she returns to her home safely."

"kindness,"

Lei Luo didn't say much.

On the other side of the carriage, Aoun was holding a picture book and watching it with the elf girl, which seemed to be a picture book recording ancient monsters. The elf girl was enjoying it, her slender and white fingers kept flipping through the pages, her long and narrow eyelashes blinked, and she temporarily forgot about her sadness.

Orn glanced out of the window St. Granborough Cathedral and said rationally: "According to mathematical logic, even the Creator of Light is not omnipotent, because he can never create a stone that he cannot move by himself, so the law of truth must be above the Creator of Light, and it is an existence that it cannot affect."

Leiro was stunned and looked at Orn in disbelief, as if he was inspired by unprecedented wisdom.

yes!

If the Creator of Light could create such a stone but he could not move it himself, how could he be called omnipotent?

And if he cannot create such a stone, he cannot be called omnipotent!

In an instant, Lei Luo's heart was greatly relieved by his wizard's fear of the Creator of Light because of his wizard's relic. He was also full of confidence in the laws of truth that Antonio had been pursuing in the publication of "The Secret of Evolution", and the laws of truth that scholars insisted on by the stolen stents in front of the Cathedral of Light for hundreds of years.
