Chapter 167 Where Hestis Goes
The last day of the Mountain God Festival.
Miss walked out of Sylvia's room and saw Licia as soon as she went out.
Licia sat there quietly, as if she was waiting for him.
Seeing Miss appear, she immediately walked over, still smiling.
"Brother, you're awake."
Miss rubbed Lisia's head and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't go to Shanshen Square yesterday."
Licia shook her head. "It's okay. We were blessed on the first day of the Mountain God Festival, weren't we?"
Miss hugged her tightly. "I promised Raymond that I would take care of you for the rest of your life. When I become... the most powerful magician in the world, no one can take you away from me."
Licia's eyes were slightly moist, "When Licia becomes the strongest swordsman, she will never leave me again."
After the two of them had lunch together, they felt that the lord's mansion seemed a little empty today.
Sylvia must still be sleeping, and Nora is also sleeping. Cassius took his master Ron out to do volunteer work early in the morning.
Miss noticed something was wrong, "Where's Hestice?"
Licia thought about it carefully, with a puzzled look on her face, "No, I didn't see Hestis at the Mountain God Square last night."
After thinking for a moment, she was about to get up and go find Hestis, but Miss suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"Don't worry, I know where Hestice is, leave it to me."
Seeing Miss's affirmative look, Licia nodded and felt relieved.
It is the last day of the Mountain God Festival, and the [Judge] team has already completed the search. They have checked almost every corner of Vita City.
But the missing saint and heretic could not be found.
The number on Fox's reel never changed from beginning to end, it was always "two".
But they were not panicked at all.
The purpose of the [Judge] team's trip was not to save the saint. Their real purpose was to find members of the heretical [Tree] organization.
According to the order of the Archbishop, they came to Vita City this time to capture Baron Mista. Now they just lack a legitimate reason, so there was the previous bet.
The city of Vita has only two gates, both in the same direction and not far apart. It doesn't take much time to rush to each other's aid, so the [Judge] team is confident that they can defend the city gates.
They were waiting for tonight, waiting for Baron Mista to reveal a flaw.
Therefore, during this last day's deadline, the [Inquisitor] team does not need to search. All they have to do is to split into two groups to guard the city gate and intercept the heretics who want to leave the city.
The bonfire was lit again, and most of the people in the city gathered in the Mountain God Square and the Church Street. Two figures quietly entered the church from the back door one after another.
After the two men entered the church, Miss slowly walked out from the alley at the corner of the street.
At this time, he basically understood the general process of the disappearance of the saint in Vita City.
Miss looked around and found that there was no one else, so he walked into the church with confidence.
After the heretic attack a few days ago, the tables and chairs in the cathedral were badly damaged by magic, but the statue of the goddess in the center was unharmed.
After observing the environment inside the temple, Miss did not find any trace of anyone.
Apparently, there is a secret room here.
The fact that a secret room could be built in the temple, right under the nose of the priest, made things very clear.
Mis came behind the statue of the goddess, squatted down and knocked on the wooden board under his feet, and felt a groove at the base of the wall.
He put his palm into the groove and tapped it lightly, and the entire wooden board was lifted up, revealing the entrance to the secret room.
Walking into the secret room and pulling back the wooden board above his head, Miss fell into darkness.
He used the golden magic in his body to light the crystal on the wand and used it as a torch.
With the light, Miss was finally able to see his surroundings clearly.
This secret room under the church should be a secret passage.
The secret passage extends for a long distance, and it seems that there is no end in sight. It is not a project that can be dug out in a day or two.
He guessed that this secret passage must have taken at least two and a half years to dig, and was constructed in secret.
There is a secret room near the entrance of the secret passage.
Through the crack in the door, Miss discovered that everyone in the room, except the saint from the long-eared tribe, was an acquaintance.
The priest of Vita City, Lord Baron Mista, and Hestice.
The priest was now looking anxious, "Baron, the exit has been blocked by them, and this passage has not been dug through yet, what should we do?"
Baron Mista turned sideways and introduced Hestice behind him to the priest.
"Mr. Priest, this lady is called Hestis. You should have heard of her. She will help us get the Saint out of the city."
Under the priest's astonished gaze, Hestis put away the illusionary appearance she had created with the power of faith and returned to her original appearance.
The equally anxious saint suddenly showed joy when she saw Hestis's ears.
“It’s actually my fellow tribesman!”
The priest also exclaimed: "No wonder the scroll of the [Judge] team showed that there were two long-eared people in the city. It turns out that the second one is the famous witch Hestice."
Hestis nodded and pointed to the saint beside her and said, "Don't worry, as long as she and I leave Vita City before dawn, you will be safe."
Hearing this, the priest's eyes lit up, as if he saw hope.
But the next second his face drooped again.
"My Lord Baron, the members of the Judgement Team are all very strong. Miss Witch herself is definitely no match for them. How can she leave the city?"
Hestis explained, "I am their wanted target, so I will attract their attention and lead them all to one side. Then you can quietly send the Saint out of the city from the other side."
After listening to Hestis's words, the priest thought it was feasible, but he was worried about accidents. Feeling uneasy, he looked at Baron Mista, wanting to see what Mista's attitude was towards this plan.
After receiving the priest's question, Baron Mista looked worried, as if he felt a little guilty.
“This plan is feasible, but I will be sorry for Miss Hestice.
Miss Hestice, are you sure you can escape from the Judge team?
My people will not be able to help you during this time, and you may be alone."
Hestis looked at her pitiful fellow tribesman beside her, her eyes firm, and nodded, "Leave it to me."
At this moment, the door of the secret room was pushed open with force, and everyone in the secret room looked at the door in astonishment at the same time.
"A dignified Tree organization has to sacrifice an unrelated woman to get out of trouble?"
Hestis' eyes widened as she looked at the man who was speaking, "Miss, you..."
