Chapter 324 - The Dungeon of the Temple (1/2)
When the first elder saw that it was Graham, he was more at ease with him.
As the second elder of the temple, Graham had never failed to capture strange creatures.
He was a close-combat mage like Bunian van Lundtien, the same muscular physique, and the same carefree personality.
This was also the reason why they became best friends.
When Bunian van Lundtien died, Graham had been in grief for a long time. It was just that the temple had made other arrangements for him at that time.
Enduring his grief, Graham had perfectly completed the mission that the temple had arranged for him.
“Alright, Graham will be in charge of this operation to kill the scarecrow.”
“Who’s in favor of it? Who’s against it?”
This question was an unwritten rule of the temple. Once a certain matter was confirmed, one had to ask.
If no one said anything, it meant that everyone had tacitly agreed.
“I object!”
Everyone looked at the person who raised the objection and saw that it was Veronica.
Everyone immediately understood. The woman who was still angry was really narrow-minded.
Veronica was eager to prove that he was stronger than Olina. Seeing that everyone liked Olina, she could not bear the pain.
In fact, it was Veronica’s own imagination. Everyone was an adult, so they should control their emotions and state of mind.
If you thought that others liked so-and-so, in fact, it might not necessarily be the case. However, if you were being so subjectively, it was easy to go to the extreme.
Veronica was now going to the extreme.
Graham was instantly unhappy. Fortunately, she was not chosen to be the fifth elder.
“Veronica, you want to kill the scarecrow? Do you have the ability?”
“Ask which elder is willing to accompany you to kill the scarecrow.”
Veronica looked at the elders present. Unfortunately, none of them gave him a supportive look.
The more Veronica thought about it, the angrier she got. In the end, she sat down helplessly.
She secretly swore that she would go kill the scarecrow alone.
When the time came, she would let everyone see that she was countless times stronger than Olina.
The climax of the meeting was to discuss how to kill the scarecrow. Graham stepped in and took the mission.
There was a result.
None of the hundreds of elders present did not think that Graham could not complete the mission.
His powerful strength and the dazzling battle record made it so that no one would doubt him.
Flanders looked at Graham and smiled.
The meeting moved on to discuss some other matters and finally asked Olina to report the battle with the Scarecrow.
Regarding this, Flanders asked Olina to tell the truth. He was afraid that the people of the Salko Temple would find out the clues and cause their efforts to fall short.
Now, it was 80% true and 20% false, and no one could figure it out.
Graham carefully noted down the scarecrow’s fighting style, and he wanted to study the corresponding countermeasures.
After Olina finished reporting, the great elder, Brian Victor, announced the end of the meeting.
Olina was also relieved. This round had passed, and no one doubted her at all.
At the same time, Olina was also very conflicted. She was wavering. She did not know if he should take the initiative to confess to the great elder.
When Flanders saw Olina’s hesitant look, he thought to himself that it was dangerous.
Flanders followed closely behind Olina. From time to time, he would touch Olina with his body to transmit some fear to her.
