Chapter 548 (1/2)
”Chief Otis, he's here.”
Whispering voices came from the crowd, surprised by the arrival of the head of the lance knight. Today's scene is a little chaotic, but it's not a big deal. After a while, the ten sword palace will mobilize people to disperse the troublemakers, and then talk one by one to eliminate the trouble.
But now, if the chief personally appears, the nature of the matter will be formalized, and it will not be so easy to suppress it.
”Why is the noise here disturbing the order of the holy mountain?”
Head Otis' face was serious, and his sharp eyes swept slowly. People on the scene did not dare to look directly at him and bowed their heads.
The scene suddenly fell into silence. After a long time, a priest's voice trembled slightly.
”We've suffered injustice. We want to make a statement. We want to be fair.” He looked nervously at the man like a lion.
”What injustice have you suffered.” Otis' voice was as calm as a mountain.
”We've been...” after that, he began to explain slowly, and some of his companions began to speak and help supplement.
The meaning is that a group of priests who had achieved similar results in those years were ridiculed and looked down upon by the priests in those rich regions because of the different churches and regions they were assigned. As the years passed, there was a significant gap in status and treatment. They worked harder and paid more, but they didn't get the corresponding respect and reward.
”Why do we have to suffer such humiliation when we devote ourselves to the church in the most difficult place and fulfill our responsibility for the peace of the world?”
”The mud priest, the coal black priest, the country guy, the poor guy, and so on. That's what they put on us. No matter how long we work or how much we pay, we won't be promoted.” A group of people said, recalling the hardships of these years, some even shed tears, so that many onlookers around can not help but be moved by it.
”Your efforts and hardships are in the eyes of the church and will always be remembered.” Otis's tone was a little more relaxed at this time.
”But it's not good for you to behave like this after all. In this way, everyone is like this. Where's the order? Distribution according to disturbance is absolutely not advisable.”
”You go back first. I believe the ten sword palace and the church will give you an account of this.”
The severe people in the past, showing their soft feelings at the moment, immediately moved the group of priests, so they all admitted their mistakes and said that they should not March so excessively to destroy the order and peace in the holy mountain.
Finally, under the arrangement of this group of knights, they went back to the guest residence outside the flame palace to have a rest, which was the residence of the branch church when they came to the headquarters.
Watching the crowd disperse and disappear into the night, the guards of Shijian palace frown slightly. Today's incident is really sudden. They just received the news and rushed here. They didn't expect that things would develop like this.
”What to do, captain?” A guard nearby inquired.
”Report to Lord HIBIS first. It doesn't look easy.” The gold guard put away his weapon and took the man to the ten sword palace.

After the incident across the mountain, the crowd dispersed and quieted down. In the dining room under the holy flame palace, seven students from ermenas were also enjoying their dinner.
Compared with other palaces, there seems to be more meat in the restaurant, which greatly satisfies the students' taste.
”Here, have another drink.” Several boys drink some of the top, blush, neck thick.
”Dry!”
Although the language and culture are completely different, the scenes on the wine table are always so similar. Lorraine hill looks at the people in front of him, shakes his head slightly, and then turns his eyes to the small wine glass at hand. Among them, there is light red fruit wine, which seems to be brewed from a kind of red plum on the holy mountain. The degree is not high, and the taste is sour and sweet.
She seldom drinks, but this is a rare party. She didn't want to be too independent, so she ordered a glass of fruit wine.
”Rochelle, Polly, come on, let's have a drink.”
Jessica is holding a big glass and wants to touch the two people beside her. She's a good drinker. She used to drink a lot.
”I can only drink a little, or I'll get dizzy.” Polly looked at the liquid left in her glass with a little fear. It seemed that it was extremely hard to drink and bitter.
”Well, I won't embarrass you. As for Rochelle, how much do you drink? If you can't, don't force it Jessica turned and looked at the silver haired girl with a glass of wine.
”Nothing. That's OK.” There was a smile in the girl's voice, and then several girls touched the glass again and drank the liquid slowly.
Compared with the Baijiu liquor with high degree, most of the liquor on the western continent is not too high, and there are not many merchants using distilled liquor making technology, but alchemists often use distilling to extract some substances.
Seven people like this, then eat side chat, until the night gradually deep.
”It's getting late. That's all for today's party“ After the dishes on the table were finished, several people had almost finished drinking, so it was time to leave.
”I'll go back with Rochelle and Polly, and you boys will take care of each other.” Jellica said that she didn't want to help these drunken boys or her two friends.
”Well, be careful on the way.”
Hayson nodded to the three people, then carried them on his shoulders one by one, and walked out of the restaurant slowly, just like a rare Hercules. The rest of the people are holding hands with each other, slowly out of the restaurant.
”Let's go, too. Don't look at Polly. Don't worry about them. Among us, except you, our strength is above series 5. There will be no safety problem on the road. ”
”Well, although... But... You're right, but I always feel offended.” Polly was a little reluctant to murmur, and then she was pulled away by jellica with a smile.
The three returned along the mountain road. Because they were sober and didn't need help, they walked briskly and slowly disappeared into the night.

Ten sword palace, flowing water palace.
HIBIS was eating, and the wide table was full of empty dishes, and his appetite seemed to be good all the time.
Burp——
The big bellied man finally put down the tableware and stretched out his hands. The attendant on one side came up immediately, wiped his hands with a wet towel, and then asked someone to clean the table.
”There seems to be some noise outside today. Let the captain on duty come in and report.” He lay on the comfortable armchair, closed his eyes, and asked the nun behind him to massage his head.
”Yes, Lord HIBIS.” Then a valet went to inform the captain of the guard who had been waiting at the door for a long time.
