Chapter 157: Awakening from Divination
Chapter 157: Awakening from Divination
"What are Father Niccolò and the others doing?"
"Are you waiting for someone?"
Because of the actions of Father Niccolo and others, a large group of people gathered nearby, and everyone's eyes were filled with curiosity and surprise.
They didn't have to wait long. Soon, under their gaze, several carriages drove over from the aisle in the distance.
From the style of the carriages, they immediately recognized that they belonged to the church.
Is there anyone coming from the church?
Under their gaze, several carriages slowly stopped.
Several priests, monks and nuns, as well as a young woman who did not look like a church member, got off the carriage.
Finally, a middle-aged man with a strong aura, a dignified face, and wearing high-ranking clerical robes came into their sight.
Staring at the clothes worn by the middle-aged man, many residents of the town showed shock on their faces.
Even those who didn't understand would understand after being reminded by those around them.
"This dress... is it a bishop?"
"The church actually sent a bishop, hiss..."
They didn't expect that after Father Niccolò and others failed, they actually called the bishop.
The bishop is in charge of a diocese and manages a group of priests. In the eyes of ordinary people like them, he is a big shot who is high above everyone else!
Now, such a big shot was actually alarmed by the witch in the Witch Forest and came to their town of Teven?
The townspeople opened their mouths wide.
While they were shocked, they also realized that the matter of the witch seemed to be really coming to an end.
Even a great man like the bishop was alarmed. The witch in the Witch Forest could not possibly be still alive!
"The Bishop of York!"
Father Niccolo and others were delighted when they saw this and hurried forward to greet them.
Looking at the priests who gathered around him, Bishop York frowned and asked, "I heard that you guys can't even handle a witch?"
"And you can only protect yourself from that witch?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Father Miro and others immediately showed embarrassment on their faces.
Father Milo explained, "Bishop York, the witch's normal strength should not be strong, but her forbidden witchcraft is too powerful. We..."
He told the details, especially about the witch who could make the undead and plants much stronger in a short period of time.
They also said that they did not lose, but had to retreat for the safety of the monks and nuns.
Upon hearing this, Bishop York's expression improved a little, but it was still very ugly.
"Humph, this is a huge incident, and you can't even deal with a witch. You are really useless!"
After scolding him, he frowned and said, "Let's go, take me to find that witch."
After these words were spoken, Father Niccolo and the others, who had originally looked worried, were instantly surprised.
The Bishop of York is indeed hard-mouthed but soft-hearted!
With the Bishop of York taking action and such a large group of people, the witch will definitely be caught and burned to death!
They hurriedly took Bishop York and several priests and nuns who followed him and headed towards the dense forest on the hill far away from the town of Tevin.
From afar, the townspeople looked at them expectantly, waiting for the good news that was about to come.
……
Time passed, more than two hours passed...
The faces of Father Niccolo and others gradually stiffened.
They searched for a long time in the dense forest with Bishop York, but no matter how hard they searched, they could not find any trace of the witch in the dense forest. It was as if she had learned the news in advance and left the dense forest of witches...
"Is this witch so well-informed?"
"Knowing that the Bishop of York was coming, he ran away in advance?"
They were stunned, angry, and nervous at the same time.
Sure enough, when they turned around, they saw Bishop York looking at them with a dark face and a hint of low pressure around him.
Just when they were anxious and didn't know what to do.
At this time, a young woman following behind Bishop York showed hesitation on her face and said hesitantly, "I can try to search for the location of the witch. Let me do it!"
Father Niccolo and the others turned around and noticed the fair-skinned, beautiful woman.
It seems that this is not someone from their church?
Bishop of York, why did he bring an ordinary woman with them?
When they were wondering about the identity of this woman and didn't know how to find the witch.
Under their gaze, the woman named Martha took out a stack of cards from her waist.
When everyone looked closely, they discovered that they were tarot cards used for divination!
Seeing this scene, they frowned.
Of course, they knew about Tarot cards, and they also knew that it was something that ordinary people often used for divination. It was said that it had a high accuracy rate, but...
This is not a good thing for the people in their church!
To them, this is something that should be banned and avoided!
For them, using Tarot cards for divination may lead them into false beliefs and away from God's truth.
Even before, the church leaders classified it as a devil's atlas and a pagan item...
So, when they saw this young woman so blatantly taking out Tarot cards and trying to tell fortunes, they naturally frowned.
Seeing this, Martha also noticed their strange expressions.
She looked embarrassed and quickly explained as if she was repenting, "In order to eliminate evil, this is also a last resort. I hope Father Niccolo can understand!"
After saying this, thinking of the evil witch, Father Niccolò and others had no choice but to turn a blind eye and allow Martha to do what she wanted.
Martha said confidently as she fiddled with the tarot cards, "Under the guidance of these tarot cards, the location of the witch will definitely be exposed to me. She can't escape!"
So confident?
Including the Bishop of York, everyone showed interest in their eyes.
Under their expectant gazes, Martha began to shuffle and slice the cards, then placed her hands on the Tarot cards and closed her eyes, meditating on the questions in her heart.
"Tarot cards, tell me the location of that evil witch!"
She stretched out her right hand and wanted to draw a tarot card from the deck for interpretation.
However, at this moment, something terrifying happened to her.
"what……"
She let out a shrill scream, as if she was in great pain, and two lines of blood and tears flowed from her tightly closed eyes.
The tarot cards placed on the ground also spontaneously combusted in an instant.
Call ~
Under the shocked gaze of Bishop York and others, the tarot cards on the ground were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Please give me a monthly ticket... I will try to update three times recently.
