Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 2080 Light and Shadow (1)

Ryan knew that pastors like Reid, their power comes from their devotion to the gods they believe in. This is also the only way to increase their strength. Therefore, Reid will have no one can match his piety. In fact, as The archbishop of the Church of Illumination, Reid shouldn’t have said something like that to Ryan. He can negotiate righteously, or persuade Ryan with emotion and reason, but he must not faintly suggest Ryan at the beginning. You don't need to agree to yourself. If it weren't the friendship accumulated by two people who ventured together back then, I'm afraid what Ryan sees today is the spokesperson of a powerful god in the world, not the pastor Rand who smiled a little badly.

Now that Reid had made such a suggestion, Ryan would of course not take the initiative to take the initiative to repair the Burning Angel Staff, so he changed his tone and talked about some old things about the past of the two people, and Reid was very ugly. He’s eating and pouring wine into his stomach. On the one hand, they often talk about the old days with Ryan. The two people occasionally talked about the expeditionary army, and they quickly covered it with other content. Never go deep in this aspect, so as not to spoil the good chat atmosphere. .

When Ryan and Reid finished this old conversation with satisfaction, Reid stood up and stretched a long waist, then said to Ryan, "Okay, let's get here today. I will find a place to rest first. Now, I have to go to Freya to see if she can help. If not, I have to count on Victor. His enchanting skills should be the most powerful of us, right?"

Ryan was really taken aback when he listened to Reid’s words that seemed to be straightforward. Although Reid’s next itinerary was almost the same, he said it in a very flat tone on this occasion, but it gave people a feeling. Hidden mystery, but Ryan couldn’t understand the meaning of Reid’s words for a while. He dealt with a few vaguely and personally sent Reid to the arranged residence, only to walk out of his private library. I saw that the four cardinals were standing outside the door like doormen. This abnormal situation immediately aroused his vigilance. Next, Ryan settled down and set up Reid's party quietly, and then returned with the fastest speed. When he arrived at his private library, he immediately recruited members of the "Shadows".

Shadowsor’s secret organization was originally established by Lion for the safety of Cassano. Its first leader was Sophie. However, after the female thief decided to stay in the underwater world, Lion gave it to The trusted Nightingale is the knight Christina who has abandoned her faith.Later, under full consideration, Ryan asked Christina, who was aliased by Nightingale, to go to the Nether region to integrate the army, so this organization was temporarily managed by Vivienne, but Vivienne just hung up a name, because Christina was abandoning faith. After infiltrating religious management methods, this organization has developed very rapidly, and has basically formed a system of its own. Even after taking over for so long as Vivienne, it only has a little understanding of the internal relations and operations of the organization. That's it.

While Ryan was secretly interviewing several leaders of the Shadowsor Organization, in Reid’s rest room, the four cardinals almost couldn’t wait to ask Reid about the results of the conversation with Ryan. Of course Reid would not tell them the truth. Instead, he responded with words that he wanted a long time ago: "Ryan's meaning is very simple. When this Burning Angel Staff was repaired, it was already a destructive repair. Although the appearance is as complete as before, the actual effect is no longer as good as mine. It was the time when the teacher Ibel had it, and now after repeated battles, the remaining strength has been excessively consumed, and it has basically lost the meaning of repairing it again."

After saying this, Reid spread his hands and said to the cardinal standing next to him: "I asked again and again, but Ryan told me that if I had to do this, it would not only cost several times the previous time," And there is no way to guarantee the effectiveness of the repair, maybe not more powerful than ordinary magic items, this is a way of doing twice the result with half the effort. It is said to be this level, if I still insist on it, he will definitely notice Something was wrong, so I didn't mention it again."

"But this does not clear the suspicion from Ryan, because our people have sent back news from the other world. He not only made a semi-artifact for the dark elves, but also such a powerful and terrifying race of spirit suckers. One of Ryan’s artifacts suppressed the power of the soul and was almost annihilated.” One of the cardinals said with some dissatisfaction: “It is impossible to repair such a broken staff but cannot do it, unless he has no intention of doing so. !"

"Nonsense, if you let him make an artifact for me, I believe Ryan might actually do it. However, what he asked him to repair now is an artifact full of light power. As Ryan's magician, how about Can you have the power of light that can be used as a light believer?" Reid said to his subordinate a little displeased: "Are you questioning me for not doing things seriously?"

"Don't dare!" The cardinal who was reprimanded by Reid hurriedly stepped back and bowed to Reid in a respectful expression to apologize, but then he straightened up and looked at Reid with a firm gaze. "I said this to try to complete the oracle that the God of Light descended, and to find a person who is not a believer of God, but who can use the power of light freely. We must do our best to bathe him in the glory of the light. We have discussed this issue many times before, and everyone’s opinion is that if you can repair such an artifact, naturally you are most likely to master the power of light. Therefore, Ryan and Freya, who have repaired the Burning Angel Staff, are the most successful. Two people of possibility."

Seeing Reid’s face getting worse and worse, another cardinal standing next to him hurriedly stood up and said: "We are all working hard to complete the oracle. If there is any rashness, please ask the archbishop. Forgiveness. But just relying on Ryan's rhetoric cannot prove that he does not have such power, otherwise how did he and Queen Freya repair the Burning Angel Staff? Of course, between you and Ryan, Archbishop Ryder We all admire our friendship, but as devout followers of the God of Light, the honor of the Holy Light is our highest pursuit!"

Reid looked at some of his subordinates helplessly. If on other occasions or other things were involved, these cardinals were completely the most fanatical power under him. When using these people, Reid was like an arm. It feels refreshing, but when it comes to the god of light, these cardinals dare to directly question every word of Reid. This feeling of being sandwiched in the middle as a microphone makes Reid very slanderous. , But when it comes to the oracle descended by the God of Light, Reid is not too blunt to suppress these cardinals’ claims, but his heart is very suspicious of the oracle descended inexplicably this time, feeling that such an order really makes People can't touch their heads.

As the agent of the God of Light on this plane, Reid should naturally do things for that god faithfully. He also knows that the person is most likely to be one of Ryan or Freya, but he is very worried about the other party. What should I do if I do not want to believe in the god of light like myself?With the current strength of the Church of Light, it is impossible to deal with Ryan, who has stepped into the realm. Could it be that he hastily, or directly prayed, let the gods come with more power to punish Ryan's disrespect?When the time comes, the foreign enemy will not be destroyed, and the mankind will be in chaos again. Isn't this repeating the same mistakes that history has shown over and over again?

"Okay, okay, anyway, the oracle is only for us to find, and there is no time limit, and it does not let us use violence, right?" Reid waved his hand impatiently, and said to several subordinates: "This one Let’s stop here for the time being. After we have visited Queen Freya and Master Victor, we will slowly discuss what to do next. It’s already very late today. You guys should give me a rest. We will have it tomorrow. Going to Demon Moon City, it’s not like Cassano can be so casual, and you all remembered it to me. You are not allowed to talk about oracles, even if there are no outsiders. Do you understand?"

After the cardinals had left Reid’s room with a full face of sullen expressions, and then returned to their rooms to rest, in Lane’s private library, the interview with the leaders of the Shadowshang Organization has also come to an end. Young men and women, about 20 years old, stood in front of Ryan separately. Each of them stared at Ryan with the most admired and fanatical eyes, because under Christina’s religious development, every member of Shadowsworn would Swearing allegiance to Ryan and treating him as the only god in his heart, such an organization already has a taste of the Church of Light or the Royal Knights, but every member of the organization is walking in the shadows and darkness. Unless absolutely necessary, they will never be exposed to the sun.

"That said, Vivienne’s reign in Cassano was once again challenged by the old nobles. The strong suppression by Christina before was not obvious, but in recent time there has been a growing trend. This is why she cannot The reason why Adela’s cousin was not allowed to take the post, although this method of differentiation and wooing does not seem to have any effect.” Ryan, after listening to Cassano’s internal report on the changes and developments in the past few years, if anything Si De said to a few subordinates: "So you secretly added to the flames and let these unstable forces carry out two hunting adventures that cursed the swamp?"

"Yes, Mr. Lane." Several young men and women replied.
