The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (Chapter 83)
"Bullshit! When have we ever done anything like that!"
The loud crashing sounds echoed from the Church of Light branch in Lionheart City. After his furious outburst, Arnold finally took this alliance seriously.
He had no choice but to report these matters, and as expected, he was reprimanded by his superiors. Even the Pope, who had always been very fond of him, put away his usual kind expression.
“Arnold, you should have reported these things much earlier, instead of hiding them until now. The situation has seriously damaged the interests of the temple. You should know how big a mistake you have made, and you will bear the responsibility for these sins alone.”
"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope."
Arnold lowered his proud head, cursing inwardly.
He didn't believe there weren't any of the Pope's people in Lionheart City. To be frank, it was impossible for him to be the only one in the temple who knew about the 'Restoration Potion Alliance.' But just because the 'Restoration Potion Alliance' was mainly active in the area of Lionheart City under his jurisdiction, these guys had been ignoring the matter until he made a mistake. Only then did these guys pounce on him like hyenas, trying to take a piece of his flesh, such as a portion of his power.
"In that case, Candela, you will go and support Arnold. You will be in charge of making decisions afterward. Arnold, you should cooperate well with Candela's work."
"It is my honor, Your Holiness the Pope."
Lance and his companions were unaware of what had happened to the Church of Light, but the 'Restoration Potion Alliance' was growing rapidly, and the title of Nings the Apothecary was becoming increasingly revered within the alliance.
The more people the Alliance saved, the more people felt deeply grateful to Pharmacist Nings, and more people spontaneously joined the Alliance.
Initially, they needed to sell the potions and use some of the gold coins to win people's hearts. As time went by, the Alliance spontaneously formed a complete indoctrination process.
Many people who spontaneously joined the Alliance even brought a lot of resources to the Alliance, such as gold, jewelry, and even some rare and high-level magical items, which greatly increased the Alliance's combat power.
The church's arrest order was also made extremely difficult by these resources. Although Lionheart City was their main development area, the church's people found it almost impossible to carry out an arrest operation there after they arrived.
Most of the common people in Lionheart City were indifferent to the church, a small number were members of the Alliance, and most of the common people admired the city lord more because of Harris's vigorous governance and peaceful life. The brainwashing tactics that the church usually liked to use were repeatedly thwarted in Lionheart City.
Candra, who was sent by the Pope, initially looked down on Arnold, but after arriving, he found that things were not as simple as he thought.
For the time being, the church was at a loss and could only watch helplessly as the Tongmenghui developed.
Song Ning and Lance seized this golden opportunity to rapidly develop more members. Lance even took out some surplus resources to occasionally distribute eggs and black bread, seemingly the most ordinary supplies, to the ordinary members of the Alliance.
Song Ning was greatly shocked by this and was very suspicious of Lance's actions.
"Are you really a dragon? I get the feeling you're even more cunning than a human."
Lance didn't resist; instead, he lay down and pulled his collar open even wider to welcome his 'harassment'.
"It's just a little trick, it has nothing to do with whether someone is human or a dragon."
Besides, he learned this trick from the humans he had encountered during his gradual assimilation of life, and in reality, humans are more cunning.
"Okay, you're right."
Song Ning said that her hand had already reached inside, and she couldn't get enough of Lance's abs.
When he used to train with a group of swordsmen, he never found anyone's abs attractive. Now, however, he was attracted to dragons' abs. Could it be that his species preferences were different from others?
"It's getting late, shall we rest?"
"Hmm, hmm, hmm?"
Before Song Ning could react, his hand had already been grabbed and he was lifted up. His hand naturally rested on the back of Lance's hand, gripping it tightly in a bit of a panic.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?"
"Hmm, we need to do something."
Lance carried the person steadily towards the bedroom; they had already been living in the same bedroom for some time.
"I'm asking what you plan to do, not asking you to just forget about it."
"Yes, I'm going to do it to you."
Song Ning only had time to roll his eyes before being carried into the bedroom, but the faint curve of his lips showed that he wasn't entirely uninterested.
After Lance's scheme was put into practice, the Alliance's development indeed proceeded more smoothly as a result.
For many ordinary people, the "Restoration Potion Alliance" giving its members black bread and eggs every now and then was far more appealing than the Church of Light's constant pronouncements of "God loves the world" while it continuously made demands on them.
After all, God loves the world but keeps taking from them and constantly giving back. But the eggs and black bread distributed by the Tongmenghui were actually edible, enough to fill their stomachs and keep them from going hungry at night!
"Have you heard? Joining this alliance means you can get free eggs and black bread!"
"Really? Is it a scam? Or is there some kind of price to pay?"
"Nothing's necessary. You just need to join them. I've personally seen that the guy with the missing finger, Monchi, who lives just across the street, get his share every time he goes. I've already seen him get his share three times this month!"
"What? Even Monkey with the missing finger can join? Then can we join too? Where do we join?"
“My aunt’s family is planning to join. I’ll ask them about it later. I heard that if you contribute a lot to the Tongmenghui, you can even get free warm clothes!”
"My God, that's really something! When are we going to your aunt's house? Let's go together! I can't wait to join this alliance!"
Several commoners were outside the city, diligently searching for usable firewood while chatting quietly with hopeful eyes, their eyes filled with anticipation for the future.
In winter, snowflakes blanket the ground, and the city and its surroundings are covered in a beautiful, but freezing, silvery landscape. Most of the common people wear several thin layers of clothing, their lips slightly pale, as they search diligently in the snow. They only hurry home when their bodies are almost numb, and the whole family gathers around a campfire to keep warm and get through the difficult winter.
An ordinary-looking carriage slowly drove past them, its hooves clattering in the snow.
