Chapter 60: Ophinina's Sacred Skills (Seeking Follow-up Reading) The next day the king called another meeting. The protagonist of this meeting was the Duke of Norton. "You all should have known about Eric's joining the heretical sect." King Rosser looked at the nobles with a serious face, "As the Duke of the kingdom, Vicente did not even realize that his son had come into contact with paganism. This is a serious dereliction of duty!" Duke Norton stood in the center of the crowd, facing the various gazes from all around him with an expressionless face. This was indeed his dereliction of duty and he had nothing to say. Duke Norton stood out from the crowd and said in a deep voice: "I failed to discipline Eric. To make up for my mistake, I am willing to lead the family's magicians to purify the slums!" As soon as these words were spoken, there was a commotion in the crowd. The matter of purifying the slums has not yet been finalized, so why would Duke Norton say this? The king was also stunned for a moment. He frowned and was about to say something when the high priest Ur stepped forward. "Since Duke Norton has such awareness, let's arrange the operation to purify the slums."
"I will build a purification array in the slums and have Duke Norton implement it. I know this is a bit cruel to the poor, but rather than letting them die miserably under the pagan plague, it is a better choice to let gold purify them!" King Rosser's face darkened. This was the palace of Brefil. Even the high priest of the Golden Church could not interfere with the kingdom's internal affairs without his permission! As if Wu Er sensed Rosser's dissatisfaction, he turned his head and said to Rosser: "King Rosser, you are also a believer in gold, so you won't refuse, right?" Rosser was silent, he knew that Ur's decision was not nonsense. Those poor people infected with corruption are beyond help, and purifying them early can prevent the royal city from becoming more chaotic. "I will arrange for the knights of the royal city to assist." Rosser finally compromised. Lear stood among a group of nobles, did not express his opinion, and just left the meeting hall with a blank expression. …… When I got home, it was time for dinner. Ino had already prepared the meal, and Milia was waiting for Lear. "You seem to be in a bad mood?" Millia noticed that something was wrong with Lear's mood. "Nothing." Lear smiled. Milia frowned and looked at Lear's calm appearance. She stood up, came to Lear, and said seriously: "You can tell me anything. I'm your fiancée and I can listen." "It's really nothing." Li Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He patted Miria's little hand, "It's just that His Majesty the King intends to let the Golden Church purify the slums." "What do you mean?" Millia was a little confused. She had been staying in Stuart Mansion and didn't know much about what was happening in the outside world. Lear patiently explained everything. After listening to Li Er's story, Milia said in disbelief: "You mean that father allowed the Golden Church to kill all the infected people in the slums?" "That's about it." Lear nodded. "Is there no other way to save those poor people?" Millia felt a little reluctant.
She was not a child and knew that her father's decision was good in the long run, but she still felt it was a little cruel. Li Er said nothing and stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth. Thinking of the decision task that was triggered before, where can there be so many saviors in this world? Besides, he is just a mid-level professional. The dinner ended in a somewhat heavy atmosphere. Li Er took the food left for Saint Ophelia and went to the underground secret room alone. In the secret room, Ophianina was still tied to the chair. The bright red shackles were absorbing her physical strength all the time, and the magic power in her body was also regularly devoured by Lear. She was somewhat desperate. Was she going to be Lear's bloody servant for the rest of her life? The door of the secret room was opened, and Ophinina felt a little better. During the time of imprisonment, the only time she felt comforted was during her meals every day. The maid Ino would feed her and comfort her, but she would often say nice things about Lear, which made her a little annoyed. What good is that perverted rogue heretic! She felt that such a good maid must have been deceived! Ophinina looked towards the door and her expression froze instantly. The person who came was not Ino, but Lear, the man she hated so much! Seeing Ophelia's dull eyes, Lear stepped forward and said, "What's wrong? Don't you welcome me?" "Didn't you suck my blood this morning?" Ophelia said subconsciously. "Can't I come after I've smoked?" Li Er raised his eyebrows and put dinner on the table beside him. Hearing this, Oufengina became a little flustered. In the past, Lear would suck blood in the morning and then disappear. What does he want to do now that he comes at night? A man and a woman were alone in a room, and she was tied up in an extremely shameful way... Oufengina didn't dare to think further. "What do you want to do?" Oufengina asked vigilantly. "What's your attitude? It's really sad. I see that you have a hard time having my blood sucked every day, so I am willing to come here to feed you and comfort you. Shouldn't you be more enthusiastic?" Li Er smiled. I don't believe you, you pagan are so bad! Ophianina gritted her teeth. If it weren't for these red shackles, she would have pounced on Lear and bit him to death! "Forget it, I won't joke with you anymore." Li Er shrugged and sat on the chair on the other side. "Do you remember the High Priest of Ur whom I mentioned to you last time?" "He plans to set up a purification ritual to cleanse the entire slum area in order to lure out the corrupt believers in the royal city." He said slowly. Ophinina thought Lear was going to say something sarcastic, but when she heard about Wuer's incident, her brows instantly frowned. "Do you agree with Wuer's decision?" Li Er asked, "Or do you have a way to save those infected people in the slums?" If there is anyone who can save the poor and become a savior, Lear thinks that only Ophénia may have such ability. The Saint of the Golden Church has always been very mysterious. It is said that she is a woman blessed by the gods. It is not impossible for her to have some special abilities. Ophinina fell silent, nodded, and shook her head. "If I can break through to the extraordinary realm, maybe I will have a chance to save those infected, but now, my magic power is not enough." She said with some regret. Listening to Ophianina's words, Lear didn't say anything. The saint had no choice but to watch the Golden Church's operations. Quietly picking up the plate, he fed Ophelia. About ten minutes later, after feeding Ophinina, he leaned over and bit Ophinina's neck hard. Since he came here, he naturally couldn't return empty-mouthed. The sweet and pure blood of the girl flowed into Lear's breath, and he sucked it greedily. Just as he was enjoying the wonderful taste of the saint, the system panel suddenly appeared in front of him.
