Chapter 55 56.Alive
At the door of the grocery store opposite the pier in the shallow water area, Jasper, who was covered in injuries, was sitting against the wall.
Finally, the grocery store owner still had some conscience, so he took a blanket from the room and wrapped it around him. There was a dark purple lump as big as a bowl on Jasper's chest, which was the wound caused by the crew member stabbing his chest with a pole.
Now he feels a burning pain in his chest every time he breathes.
The sea breeze blew over at night, and he pulled the blanket around him.
…
Roy limped over from the deep water dock and saw Jasper sitting against the wall.
He came to Jasper and knelt down, put his arms around his shoulders and said excitedly:
"Jasper, it's great that you were able to escape! I was also worried that you would be trapped in the bottom cabin. I'm sorry, I couldn't fulfill my promise and couldn't rescue you from the bottom cabin!"
Jasper raised a hand feebly, forced a smile and said:
"Fortunately, the Naga killer brought back an ax and a chisel, and then we dug a hole in the bottom of the boat and escaped!"
"I've been waiting here for a long time."
He added weakly.
"Let's go, I'll take you back to the temple and let High Priest Reed help you heal your injuries!"
Roy knelt down, put Jasper's arm on his shoulder, then put his arm around his waist, and helped him walk towards Brown Street outside the pier.
"Roy, have you called all the troops stationed at the seaside?"
Jasper looked at the big elf archers on the dock and asked with envy.
"I just reported the news that we were trapped on the Sea Wolf to the port guard..." Roy said.
The two of them supported each other and walked slowly towards the Temple of Liberty.
Soon it disappeared into the vast darkness.
…
A beautiful Naga mermaid emerged from the water below the shallow pier. It was the beautiful mermaid who helped Roy.
She lay on the steps of the pier with her hands and looked at the backs of the two people quietly.
It wasn't until the two of them disappeared completely in the dark street that they turned around and plunged into the sea.
The three-colored fish tail stirred up waves in the sea and quickly disappeared.
…
Roy and Jasper walked back to the Temple of Liberty. Abbot was still sitting in the guard room at the entrance of the temple. He saw the two of them walking reluctantly from the port terminal like homeless people.
When I came back, I knew something big had happened.
He quickly ran out and opened the side door, and then helped Roy carry Jasper, who was almost collapsed, into the backyard of the temple.
"What did you do? Wasn't it fine when you left? Could it be that the evil spirit came back to bite me?"
Abbot asked as he walked.
Entering the temple, Jasper became more energetic and said:
"What would you think if I said we met a group of slave traders?"
Abbot trembled all over and almost threw Jasper onto the road.
He stopped and asked Roy to help lift Jasper onto his back some more.
Then he grinned and said:
"You two are really lucky to be able to come back alive. Jasper..."
"That's right. Not only were we lucky, Roy and I also saved a boatload of naga." Jasper said from behind.
Abbot walked up the steps to the second floor of the dormitory. He and Jasper lived in the room farthest from the main hall.
"Then you two ended up like this?"
"Um!"
Roy and Jasper replied at the same time.
When Abbot turned up the stairs, High Priest Reed just walked out of the study room. He looked up and saw Roy and the three of them.
"Priest Reed..."
The three of them bravely stepped forward to greet them.
High Priest Reed's eyes fell on Roy's face, then looked at Jasper, and then asked:
"What happened?"
Jasper braced himself and explained:
"High Priest Reed, I went to a ship at the dock to purify the souls of the dead. I didn't expect it to be a slave ship. They wanted to take Roy and me to the sea. Fortunately, the elf guards on the dock guarded us.
We rescued him."
"...Goddess, how could such a terrible thing happen? Let me check how you are injured..."
High Priest Reed walked over, and when he got closer, he realized that Jasper's injury was much more serious than he thought.
At this time, Roy opened the door, and Abbott carried Jasper into the room and let him lie on the bed.
Seeing the bruises on Jasper's arms, wounds all over his body, and big bruises on his chest, he pressed his chest and abdomen, and saw that he was grimacing in pain. He knew that the organs in his chest and abdomen might be...
After suffering some trauma, he said:
"You're not seriously injured. Lie down and don't move. I'll help you treat it with the Holy Light Technique."
Jasper forced a smile and said:
"Priest Reed, just ask Abt to treat me."
High Priest Reed said with a serious face:
"Jasper, these are not your concerns. You just need to rest well now."
At this time, messy footsteps sounded in the corridor.
Priest Theodore actually walked in drunkenly from the outside. When passing by this room, he glanced inside and saw that Priest Reed and three trainee priests were here, so he stopped...
His steps are a bit vain...
High Priest Reed frowned and asked:
"Theodore, have you been drinking?"
Priest Theodore leaned against the door frame, pointed at his chest, and said with a smile:
"I only drank a little fermented pomegranate juice, which is not considered wine at all."
Then he saw Jasper lying on the bed, and then walked into the room.
"Oh, Jasper, what happened to you? How did you get hurt like this?"
His expression is slightly exaggerated...
He pressed Jasper's shoulders with both hands, and then said:
"Lie down quickly. You also know how difficult it is to store the power of the Holy Light now. Now I don't know how long it will take for Priest Andyson's power of Holy Light to recover. Master Reed and I are needed inside and outside the temple.
The priest will take charge of the situation. I can't use up all the holy light. Abt, you come and treat Jasper and Roy."
The last sentence is his instruction to Abt.
Abt immediately replied respectfully:
"Yes, Teacher Theodore."
Theodore turned around and wanted to leave. When he reached the door, he thought of something again. He turned around and told Abbot and Jasper:
"You two have stopped all foreign affairs recently. You must know something about the situation in the temple now. I don't want to say anything more."
"Yes, Teacher Theodore!"
"Yes, Priest Theodore!"
Jasper and Abbott answered at the same time with grimaces on their faces.
After saying that, Priest Theodore said to Priest Reed:
"Reed, let's go sit in the study room. Let me tell you, today I am a guest at the manor of the great artist, painter, sculptor, and poet More Clair Latin. He promised to help us lobby for the card.
Seldon Presbytery, convince the nobles of the Presbytery to allow us to deliver the teachings of the Statue of Liberty in the upper city..."
After hearing this, High Priest Reed was slightly moved and asked:
"Master Clare Latin? The one who opened the art gallery in the center of Castletown?"
