"I've already joined another organization."

"That's too bad."

Roy turned his eyes on the two pretty faces, and moved away from the topic.

"Yada, Ms. Vivian, I've been away for so long, I'm curious, how is the Church of Virtue doing now, is it developing smoothly?"

The Princess of Vizima glanced at the Lady of the Lake, who nodded at her.

"Facts have proved that my original development policy was extremely correct!" Yada raised her chin slightly, and walked around the demon hunter quite proudly, "There are a total of 120 villages on the outskirts of Vizima, and there are already more than three points. The second opened the door to the Church of Virtue..."

"In the Vizima Lake area and the nearby Temeria River Basin, the belief of the Lady in the Lake has overwhelmed the Eternal Flame and Meritelli..." She clenched her right fist and swung it forcefully from top to bottom,

"The total number of believers in the Virtue Church has exceeded 1000, um, plus ten priests and thirty murlocs."

With a wave of her hand, a light curtain appeared in mid-air, and pious faces flashed in it, including men, women and children, and they were praying to the exquisite statue of the lady in the lake.

"Tsk tsk...it's amazing." Roy's eyes were full of splendor. In just one year, a little-known church has developed to such a degree. This is only a city of Vizima.

"Roy, this is the general trend, this is the inevitable result!" Yada looked at the lady with respect in her eyes, "Ms. Vivienne is not as deceitful as other beliefs. Madam does not ask for offerings and donations."

"All it takes is a simple and pure faith, a daily prayer."

The lake girl sitting on the shell changed her posture when she heard the words, clasping her hands in front of her lower abdomen, her posture was upright, and her expression was quite sacred.

But Roy looked over, and she blinked at him again.

"And the goddess will bestow tangible benefits on the believer."

"For the fisherman who depend on the water for a living."

"The Virtue Church formulates a more reasonable fishing plan, and the lives of all fishermen have been improved. They will not worry about not having enough food, and they no longer have to worry about floods or water ghosts."

"As for other poor families..." Yada nodded and said, "There are many kind-hearted people in the rich class of the church who are willing to selflessly pay real gold and silver for the suffering compatriots...to save them from the trough."

Roy nodded. Adda was right.

The lady in the lake almost never does evil, and stays honestly in the Vizima Lake area, restraining the monsters in the water, taking care of the lakeside residents, and maintaining the ecological balance of the lake area.

The only high-ranking member of the Virtue Church is the high priest Yada. This princess is ambitious and strives for development, and there is no act of enriching her own pocket.

The purpose of the church is to lead people to be good and follow the virtues of chivalry. Although it is too idealistic, there are more idealists in this world, which is not harmful to others.

At least from the current point of view, it is only a matter of course for this kind of church to develop and grow for the sake of believers, with "gods" showing "miracles" from time to time, and with a sunny purpose.

"So what is King Foltest's attitude now?" Roy asked, "Is he still doing his best to suppress the Church of Virtue?"

Hearing this, Yada took a deep breath, her chest heaved, and she said helplessly and distressedly, "That old guy... specially invited a few royal advisors to be watchdogs."

"Two sluts who only wear a few rags to seduce men all day long, often go to the lake area to hang out, which greatly affects the normal activities of the church."

"A few rags, sluts?" Roy interrupted suddenly, "Are you referring to the two sorceresses?"

"Apart from Keira Metz and Triss Merigold, who else?" Adda shook her head with a tense expression, with a look of disgust, "These two women are also cunning...every time they run to the Lake District To scare believers away without doing anything..."

"Complete the task assigned by the old guy without offending Ms. Vivienne too much. But their sloppy behavior is really depressing."

Adda continued,

"The oppression in the city is more frequent. Anyone who mentions the name of the Virtue Church and the lady in public, or makes a prayer, will be immediately put in prison by the Knights of the White Rose for torture."

"The believers in the city can still only hide in the sanctuary of the sewer for daily prayers... Yes, that is the area where you once cleared out the believers of the God of Omen."

"Foltest is stubborn..." Yada shook her head, and said confidently, "The rise of the Virtue Church will definitely not affect his rule, but will greatly improve the people's sense of identity with this city."

"But he couldn't understand it, so he insisted on going his own way! He also wanted me to marry Redania's brat, but I refused!"

Redania's little boy, do you mean the famous and hard-hearted Radovid in the future?

"His suppression is doomed to fail!" Yada chuckled lightly, with a determined expression on her face, "In a few years, the entire coast of Lake Vizima and the Temeria River Basin will become Ms. Vivienne's belief place."

"At that time, Foltest will have to think about it again if he wants to do something unjust."

……

Roy turned his eyes to look at the lady in the lake, who was gently stroking her seaweed-like hair, and gave him a gentle smile,

"There is no doubt that the Virtue Church will succeed sooner or later. But Yada, Ms. Vivienne, let me ask, what is the church's development goal?"

Roy's voice was soft,

"After all the Vizima Lake District is collected..."

He paused, "And then turn all the lake districts in the north, even the lake districts in the south, into places of faith for Ms. Vivian?"

"My knight, don't worry..." Vivienne, who was sitting on the shell, spoke, her voice was clear and melodious, which made people feel refreshed, "There are other sisters in other lake districts, and I have no intention of competing with them for territory."

"I didn't have that much ambition."

"The development of the Virtue Church will be terminated in due course," said Ms. Hu Zhong earnestly. "I only hope that the people in Lake Vizima and the nearby Temeria River Basin can believe in virtue and live and work in peace."

"After my believers die, they can enjoy another life in my kingdom."

And that scene reappeared in Roy's mind - together with Vivienne, releasing the soul-transformed water elf in the Vizima Lake area.

A trace of resignation flashed across Yada's face. Her ambition was more than that, but as a priest, she would naturally not disobey the goddess' words, "Ms. Vivienne's will is my ideal."

"Well, maybe I can do you a little favor and make this grand goal a little faster."

Roy glanced at the two ladies,

"This is also the main purpose of my visit this time."

He originally wanted to tell Adda and the goddess two news.

The first piece of news—Foltest has an illegitimate daughter in Baron La Valette.

But after thinking about it, I made a promise to Mrs. Louisa not to reveal her and Foltest's dirtyness to others.

And it would be disgraceful to involve their daughter, that innocent girl, as a bargaining chip.

He dropped the message.

After finishing the draft, he directly revealed the second news—some information about the first Northern War in the future.

Yada's pretty face first revealed a puzzled expression, and then her charming eyes lit up.

"In July next year, Sintra's army will be completely annihilated by the Nilfgaardian army in the Battle of Manada, and the city will be slaughtered in the end? Roy, are you sure you're not joking?"

"My ability to predict is due to a mutation. After many verifications, there has never been a problem." Roy turned his eyes to the lady in the lake and Adda calmly, "This is the picture I saw in my eyes—a river of blood Sintra, full of smoke, is full of black armored soldiers of Nilfgaard, burning, killing and looting, turning Sintra into a hell on earth."

"Believe it or not, it's up to the two of you."

"My knight, have you forgotten? I can see a glimpse of the future and the past through the movement of the water." Vivienne said with a smile, "I had a premonition that you would come to visit and reveal an important news."

"I believe in you, and I appreciate your trust."

Since Madam Noble recognized the prophecy, Yada, who was the high priest, immediately waved her hands excitedly, walked around in her mink fur short boots, and said, "Knowing the outcome of a large-scale war in advance is of great significance! I can do it." There are too many!"

"It's easy to make a lot of money and gather more believers. It can even completely reverse Voltest's attitude towards the church!"

"Roy, that's interesting." Her Royal Highness was so excited that she even stretched her arms and hugged the witcher affectionately, hugging him heavily.

The latter enjoyed the warm touch and the scent of fragrance without changing his face.

He had been trained to be invulnerable by Rita Needle's teasing at any time and anywhere.

"How can I thank you?"

"No need to be grateful."

Roy smiled and shook his head. As a demon hunter, he couldn't win the trust of others in Vizima.

This valuable information for the future can only be wasted.

But if it is handed over to the princess of a country, it will be able to play a role.

maximize the benefits.

"To tell you the truth, half a year ago, I established the Brotherhood of Demon Hunters in Nuo City with several fellow demon hunters, including teacher Lei Suo. But at present, there are only a dozen or so companions, and they are weak."

"The road to the development of the witcher is difficult and tortuous,"

Roy said sincerely,

"Ms. Vivienne, Yada, if possible, I hope that at some point in the future, when the Brotherhood encounters a crisis that it cannot cope with, you will lend a helping hand within your ability."

"Even Ms. Vivian went out in person?"

"You are my knight, even if you don't have the precious trust today," Vivienne shook her head suddenly, and the huge colorful fish tail under her body quickly slapped the wet ground, "If you encounter trouble, I can't just sit back and watch. I'm sure you will too."

"You don't understand how important this news is to me, Roy, you should get an extra reward..." Adda showed the majesty of a princess and chimed in, "Materials, money, or something else?! "

She praised again,

"I have to say that your idea of ​​the Brotherhood of Demon Hunters is very suitable for me. You are different from the usual demon hunters who eat and wait to die!"

"If you're really sorry..." Roy rubbed his chin and thought, "Then, please give me some Temeria Oren. Next year, the Brotherhood will need more money..."

"How about [-] Temeria Oren? If it's not enough, I'll think of a way to make it up."

……

Roy's shriveled purse swelled, and he also completed the first mission of Vizima, which was planned.

"Roy, spend the next few days in the city," Yada patted her bulging chest, and said in a big way, "Let me do my best as a landlord! Maybe you, a professional Someone help me."

"We've had a couple of parishes that have had a little accident. Professionals are just in need."

The witcher made a gesture of all ears.

The lady of the lake interrupted her

"Ada, Roy has other important things to do."

She waved her hand at the witcher, her bright eyes were like rippling autumn water.

"Go to work, my knight... we can solve the troubles in the diocese by ourselves. But don't forget your identity, your bond with Lake Vizima, we are your solid backing, come back when you have time. "

"Grateful."

Lake Girl left a meaningful farewell message.

"Finally, I would like to give you a piece of advice. There is an ominous and terrifying aura about you...it makes me extremely uneasy. The last time I saw you, it wasn't so serious. This time—if it is real...you have to control your strength , use with caution."

"Don't be infected by it and lose yourself."

Bloody tentacles?

This is a symbol of my will.

Roy nodded,

"Respected lady, don't worry!"

He has a strong intuition, as if this is the truth-his power is absolutely impossible to turn against the guest.

"Roy of Lake Vizima will always be Roy."

Chapter 18 One Size For One

In the afternoon, the fiery red sun rose to the center of the sky, and the temperature in Vizima rose rapidly. The hot wind blowing from the old city poured into the temple area along the long, potholed street.

The blow made the pedestrians on the road drowsy.

From a dark alley covered with moss in the temple area, a powerful demon hunter with eyes like a wild beast suddenly emerged.

Over his shoulders, one could vaguely see the corner of the alley, in a smelly, fly-sounding garbage heap, two men lying on the ground like dogs sticking out their tongues and barking, while gnawing on moldy and spoiled bones and vegetables.

Roy casually tossed the ten Temeria Orens in his palm, and rubbed the boots of the Winged Lion against the floor to wipe off the sewage on the soles.

When the Virtue Church was still there, the Knights of the White Rose often patrolled the temple area, which was prone to filth, and the young people hibernated. The public security and sanitation conditions in the temple area were greatly improved.

But now that there is no princess presiding over affairs, the temple area has become that muddy wall that can't support it.

He was just walking around in the alley, and was robbed by two masked men...

With Lebioda Hospital and the Church of Eternal Flame within easy reach, this kind of behavior is simply a blasphemy against the gods and morals!

Therefore, Roy mercifully cleaned up the scum for the citizens of Vizima... After temporarily changing their species with Axii Puppet, he stunned and robbed them...

"Unfortunately, Master Berengar was not found..." Roy sighed sadly.

He went back to Berengar's house to investigate, only to find that the wolf traitor and blacksmith had left Vizima for more than two months.

To travel abroad, whereabouts unknown.
