Working Prophet

Chapter 320 Custodian

High Priest Martina's counterattack came quickly. The day after she entered the Lake City, she immediately released carrier pigeons to temples in various places.

First, she refuted Herodotus' accusations against her point by point, and then accused Herodotus of being the real murderer of High Priest Reeves.

Not only that, High Priest Martina also said that Herodotus had used despicable means to control the other high priests. In other words, almost the entire upper class of the church fell under his control.

The Church of Silver Moon has reached its most dangerous time in thousands of years, so High Priest Martina issued a call to all believers in the world, asking everyone to follow her to retake the church from Herodotus!

Afterwards, High Priest Martina sent envoys to all the major families in the West except the Arias family, urging them to fulfill the sacred covenants of their ancestors, and to transform into the sword and shield in the hands of the goddess when the church faced a crisis!

The Malir family in Lake City was the first to respond and expressed its willingness to lend 300 warriors to the high priest Martina, personally led by Dordot, the uncle of the family head Judith, to fight for the goddess.

The Scaled City side was not far behind. High Priest Kirkuon presided over a seven-person meeting overnight. Although only four high priests attended the meeting, the decision to expel High Priest Martina from the Silver Moon Church was unanimously approved.

The very next day, the goddess Piscia also issued an oracle, asking the church to change its thousands of years of tradition, select the most loyal and brave believers, train them, form a guard, and protect the church, and appointed Herodotus as this person. The commander-in-chief of the army.

Both sides are actively preparing for war, and the atmosphere in the Western Region suddenly becomes tense! Miss Rabbit looked confused.

After she announced her conversion to Saturday, she was already prepared to face the sanctions that would follow from the church, but she didn't expect that before the sanctions came, the Silver Moon Church actually started to be in chaos.

Ilea's mouth was so happy that she ate the melon, and then she shared this happiness with Li Yu for a while.

However, Li Yu is not so optimistic about this.

"Don't you often say that powerful enemies often disintegrate from within?"

The female lord said, "It seems that the split of the Silver Moon Church is inevitable now. This is also a good thing for us. In the future, if the high priest Martina and Herodotus get into a fight, they will not be able to care about us. "

"The Silver Moon Church has indeed split, but it has become more difficult to deal with." Li Yu said, "Especially Herodotus's side is likely to develop to extremes.

"And he also plans to form an armed force belonging to the church. You have also studied in the church before, how much do you know about him?"

"High Priest Herodotus?" the female lord thought for a while, "He is a disciple of High Priest Reeves and the youngest of the seven high priests. And... no, he seems to have been keeping a low profile. Yes, it seems that I haven’t done any great things since I became the high priest.”

Adele on the side added, "Many people in the church feel that the reason why High Priest Herodotus was able to defeat many competitors to become High Priest was because of his teacher, High Priest Reeves."

"Um?"

"High Priest Reeves has an unusual obsession with power. After he became a high priest, he has been making allies and cultivating his own power. My teacher, High Priest Martina, doesn't like his approach.

"And the two of them have a lot of differences on many issues... High Priest Reeves, in order to further gain the initiative in the seven-member meeting, after the death of High Priest Lysandetos, he sent his disciples Herodotus was promoted to the position of high priest.

"And Herodotus is also very obedient. After becoming the high priest, he still treats the high priest Reeves as a disciple, obeys his teacher, and is also very polite to the other high priests. I heard that he was in seven People hardly spoke in meetings.”

"So he's just a pawn of High Priest Reeves." Miss Rabbit said, "Why did you jump out uncharacteristically this time? Could it be that... High Priest Reeves really died at the hands of High Priest Martina?" In your hand, Herodotus wants to avenge the teacher?"

"Teacher, she would never do such a thing." Adele said firmly, "She has always hated solving problems by violent means."

"But this time she took the initiative to contact the lords in the western region and borrow troops from them."

"This is what I don't understand. Teacher, why did she shake her faith?" The former priest seemed a little worried.

Although Adele has left Silvermoon Church and joined Shuangxiu Church, there are some things that cannot be parted, such as the teacher-student friendship with High Priest Martina.

Especially this time when the Silver Moon Church underwent upheavals, High Priest Martina was at the center of the earthquake.

Li Yu interrupted suddenly at this time, "As far as I know, every high priest in the Silver Moon Church has a division of labor. What is the high priest Herodotus usually responsible for?"

"He is the custodian, and he is usually responsible for keeping the holy relics and various books in the church."

"Sounds like an idle job with little power."

"It's true, the custodian is not a prestigious position." Adele also admitted, "And the High Priest Herodotus didn't make many friends in the church."

"Isn't he ambitious?"

"Some people think so, but my teacher doesn't think so, right." The former priest thought of something, "The teacher once commented on Herodotus, saying that he is very dangerous."

"Dangerous? Why is a person who is usually responsible for keeping holy objects and books dangerous?" The female lord was also aroused.

"I don't know, the teacher didn't elaborate at the time." Adele shook her head.

Li Yu asked Ilea again, "You have heard that Herodotus led people to raid the residence of High Priest Martina, and then arrested High Priest Hesiod. How many people did he bring with him? Where did those people come from?”

"It wasn't mentioned in the news, but I can ask Ona to investigate, why are you interested in this detail? If there is no accident, it should be those young priests who were bewitched by Herodotus, or Herodotus flowers You can hire mercenaries with money."

"Because High Priest Martina didn't come home."

Li Yu took out a map of the Western Territory, pointed to a territory on it, and said, "You told me that High Priest Martina came from the Veron family, right? She didn't go home after she escaped from Multiscale City."

"Teacher, she is worried about the pursuers behind her." Adele's heart tightened.

"And it's not an ordinary chaser." Li Yu said, "No mercenary in the western region dares to hunt down a high priest. As for sending young priests to chase after him, Herodotus should not be so stupid."

"If you say that, it's true, then what is High Priestess Martina afraid of..." The female lord was startled in the middle of speaking, and then blurted out, "The black armored cavalry, those black armored cavalry!"
