Chapter 4 Long Haochen's Plea for Help
Odin Town.
"You little rascal, can't you just behave yourself? You disappear in the blink of an eye!"
"If you had come back any later, I would have turned Odin Town upside down!"
As soon as he stepped into the gates of Odin Town, a female priest dressed in priest's robes and with a slightly mature appearance hurriedly appeared in front of Lin Feng.
Seeing the woman's anxious expression, Lin Feng scratched his head sheepishly and said, "Aunt Ruoshui, I just wanted to go out for a walk. Oh, by the way, let me introduce you. This is Cai'er, a friend I just met. She wants to come back to Zhennanguan with us!"
Yes, the person in front of him, whom Lin Feng called Aunt Ruoshui, was the deputy temple master of the priest's temple in the original work. When Lin Feng was still an infant, Ruoshui found him and raised him.
The reason Lin Feng and Ruoshui came to Odin Town was because many remote areas were still under attack by the demons, and many medical systems were inadequate. In addition, the Priest Temple's combat strength was relatively weak among the six temples, so it had been cooperating with other temples of all sizes over the years.
As for why so many places chose Odin Town, it was naturally Lin Feng's choice.
Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, Ruoshui noticed Cai'er, who had short purple hair, standing to the side.
Seeing that the other party was looking her up and down, Sheng Cai'er nervously grabbed Lin Feng's sleeve and nodded politely to Ruoshui.
Seeing this, Lin Feng added, "Cai'er can't speak, and her parents are dead. She's homeless. Aunt Ruoshui, let's take her with us."
Before entering Odin Town, Lin Feng gave Sheng Cai'er his own clothes to change into, since wearing the Assassin Temple outfit would make her identity immediately recognizable.
The pastor's own soft spot softened immediately upon hearing that Saint Cher was not only an orphan but also unable to speak.
He reached out and patted Cai'er's head, saying, "Then let's go together. It just so happens that you're also learning to be a Discipline Priest and need a sparring partner. Cai'er is an assassin, so having her around will make your training easier."
Upon hearing Ruoshui's words, Lin Feng and Cai'er's eyes widened in surprise.
Seeing this, Ruoshui laughed and scolded, "You think I can't tell she's from the Assassin's Temple just because she changed her clothes? I have something to discuss with the person in charge of the Knights' Temple in Odin Town. Come on, you two come with me to the Knights' Temple branch in Odin Town. We'll go back to Zhennan Pass early tomorrow morning."
Hearing Ruoshui's teasing, Lin Feng nodded awkwardly.
Then, pulling Saint Cai'er along, they followed Ruoshui towards the Knights' Hall.
The Knights' Hall of Odin Town is located at the highest point of Odin Town. Led by Ruoshui, the three of them soon arrived at the entrance of the Knights' Hall of Odin Town.
As soon as they stepped into the Knights' Hall, the sounds of apprentice knights training in the square reached their ears.
A middle-aged man dressed in knight's armor was seen leading a group of children around eight or nine years old, wielding wooden swords.
The leading knight instructor seemed to have noticed the arrival of Ruoshui and her two companions.
Especially upon seeing Ruoshui, his eyes widened immediately, and he hurriedly stepped forward, saying, "I am Balza, the instructor of this Knights' Branch Hall, Lord Ruoshui. I apologize for not greeting you properly. May I ask what brings you here?"
Balza never expected that the Weak Water Deputy Temple Master of the Priest Temple would come to such a small place as his.
Faced with the instructor's polite words, Ruoshui smiled and said, "You're too kind. As you know, the Priest Temple has always had cooperative relations with the other five temples. I'd like to arrange for a priest to be stationed in Odin Town to recruit some children who want to become priests."
"That's certainly possible."
Upon hearing Ruoshui's words, Balzac beamed with joy, somewhat flattered.
It should be understood that each priest is an extremely rare resource for the various temples.
If the Priest Temple could assign a third- or even fourth-tier priest to reside in Odin Town, the average lifespan of the town's residents would be increased to some extent.
"Please come with me, let's go inside and talk."
Ruoshui nodded, turned to Lin Feng and Cai'er behind her and said, "You two stay here and look around for a while, until I'm done."
"Okay, Aunt Ruoshui."
Seeing this, Balzac called out to the children behind him, "Jiang Hu, come here."
Soon, among the dozen or so children, one who was noticeably taller than the others came running over.
"Instructor."
"Jiang Hu, take these two around the Knights' Branch Hall as you like, but don't go too far."
"Yes, instructor."
After making the arrangements, Balzac led Ruoshui into the palace.
Not long after the two left, more than a dozen children nearby immediately surrounded them.
They surrounded the two people.
Many of the boys were deeply attracted by Cai'er's appearance.
A cacophony of sounds suddenly erupted.
"What a cute girl."
"Are you two from outlying towns?"
"Are you priests? What are the skills of a priest?"
For a moment, all sorts of questions echoed in Lin Feng and Cai'er's ears.
Lin Feng was alright; he had lived two lives and had seen all sorts of storms, let alone a bunch of kids.
However, Sheng Cai'er looked somewhat panicked, as it was the first time she had been surrounded by so many strangers.
Seeing this, Lin Feng squeezed Cai'er's small hand and shielded her behind him, saying, "Don't worry, it's alright."
Upon noticing Lin Feng's actions, Cai'er was momentarily lost in thought.
This was the first time someone had ever protected her from behind.
However, Lin Feng didn't think too much about it. Looking at the group of enthusiastic children his age, Lin Feng raised his voice and said, "Everyone, if you have any questions, you can ask one by one. I can't hear you all talking at once."
In an instant, the noisy atmosphere, reminiscent of a bustling market, fell silent.
A moment later, a slightly weak voice rang out.
"Um, can a pastor cure all kinds of illnesses?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes immediately turned to a boy.
The boy has a delicate appearance; if you don't look closely, you might even mistake him for a girl.
The moment he saw this person, a name immediately came to Lin Feng's mind.
Long Haochen!
At this moment, Long Haochen stepped out from the crowd, looking at Lin Feng with anticipation and asking questions.
Seeing this, the others stopped talking. Since they were all from the same town, they all knew that Long Haochen's mother was very weak.
Faced with Long Haochen's expectant gaze, Lin Feng shook his head helplessly and said, "I'm sorry, although a priest can cure many diseases, he can't cure every disease."
"I see..." Long Haochen seemed to have thought of something and continued, "Then, that senior whom Instructor Balza called the Temple Master, was she very strong?"
