Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Chapter 333 The Current Situation of the Iberian Inquisition

The Iberian Inquisition was an organization established after the "Great Silence" by Saint Carmen y Iberia, who gathered supporters and completely reorganized the State Church.

The reorganized Tribunal is not only a religious organization, but also a ruling body. The Inquisitors are the backbone of the Tribunal. They not only need to fulfill the duties of spiritual leaders and calm the fears and doubts of the people, but also need to fulfill the duties of judicial and law enforcement officers and investigate everything that may threaten Iberia.

Some capable and experienced review officers also have to shoulder the responsibilities of military commanders, leading punitive troops to march along the coast, observing changes in the ocean, and curbing the spread of terrorist fish.

When encountering coastal cities that are completely occupied by terrifying fish and inhuman creatures, the Approval Court can only abandon them and blow up the cities to leave no place for the terrifying fish to occupy.

The lost city is no longer worth saving, and the Inquisition is unwilling to commit military force to clear the city. They also have to guard against the erosion of the Deep Sea Church and the landing of terrifying fish.

For ordinary people in Iberia, the power of the inquisitors was too great, and the law enforcement measures were tough but lacked effective supervision.

Many times, as long as the Inquisitor suspected that someone was a member of the Deep Sea Church, the Inquisition would forcibly arrest the person even if there was no substantial evidence.

In the process of enforcing the law, conflicts with the public were inevitable, and coupled with the secret instigation of the Deep Sea Church, the people in remote areas where the influence of the Tribunal was weaker, lacked materials, and were starving, and they were full of distrust of the attitude of the Tribunal.

He hoped that the judge could help him, but at the same time he was worried that he would be arrested without any explanation.

Whenever the figure of the Inquisitor appeared on the city streets, the already lifeless streets would become silent, and the atmosphere would become strangely solemn.

Now an experienced Grand Inquisitor has come with a young Inquisitor to a dilapidated coastal city for investigation. The Inquisition has received a report from a local priest that the fish-fearing activities here are abnormal, and requested the Inquisitor's help.

"Sir, the atmosphere on the street is a little strange. The way those people stare at us is different from people in other places."

"Well... I know. Let's find a place to stay first. Remember, don't eat any food that comes from unknown sources. The lantern and sword must be held in your hands at all times."

"Yes!"

"! Who is that?" The young judge glanced at the dark and damp alley on the street inadvertently, and a few strands of snow-white hair fluttered in the salty sea breeze.

"What's wrong?" The Chief Inquisitor, who was walking in front, noticed that his junior had not caught up, so he turned around and asked.

"No...it's nothing. I must have seen it wrong." The young inquisitor shook his head and continued to follow the Grand Inquisitor.

......

"Roy, the food crops you asked Sister Shu to cultivate have already produced initial results. Sister Ling gave me the things last night, and now that you are here, I will give them to you for safekeeping."

Xi, who had not been seen for a long time, walked out of the painting, accompanied by Ah Yao, whose mouth was dripping with ink. As soon as the ink dripped onto the ground, it disappeared without a trace, which must be the power of Xi at work.

She placed the scroll in her hand on the table and unfolded it, then took out an exquisitely woven cloth bag and rice planted in a culture box.

"So fast? Doesn't grain breeding take a long time? I thought the earliest we'd have news would be next year..." Roy opened the incubator with a look of surprise on his face, carefully examining the rice plant that was full of ears of rice.

"Sister Shu is well-known for her seriousness, responsibility and dedication. I can feel the remnants of authority in this plant and the seeds in the bag. Sister Shu should have used her authority to speed up the breeding process. She did the same thing thousands of years ago..."

"Then I'll have Lao Xi thank Shu first. When I have time to meet her again, I will definitely express my gratitude to her in person."

"Well, the things have been delivered, and it's time for me to go back." Xi nodded indifferently, turned around and was about to return to the painting.

"Wait...I haven't seen you lately. Are you tired of the scenery around here?"

"I have been out all the time, you just don't know it. That ship took me to a lot of interesting places. That guy Nian was there too, and he was a bit annoying." When talking about Nian, Xi's face was full of disgust.

"No wonder I haven't seen Nian come to me recently. It turns out he was out having fun. The official from the Simaitai submitted his resignation to me a few days ago, saying he wanted to return to Dayan to serve."

"You don't have to worry about being discovered by her for now."

"Heh...Based on the little experience of the yellow-haired girl, if Nian and I were to disguise ourselves and walk past her openly, she wouldn't be able to recognize us.

"It's no fun to keep hiding. It's better to just out of sight and out of mind."

"That's right. Anyway, you can come back anytime you want. This place is not like Dayan, where there are so many restrictions."

"Okay, I got it. A Yao, let's go back." Xi lowered his head and greeted A Yao who was holding Roy's trouser legs. A Yao hurriedly took his short legs and followed Xi's footsteps.

After watching Xi return to the scroll on the wall, Roy turned his gaze back to the cloth bag and rice.

"The most important thing has arrived, and it's time to start planning ahead."

Roy untied the bag and divided the seeds into two portions, one large and one small. The large portion was packed in a box and would later be handed over to the agricultural department for cultivation.

The smaller portion was left in the bag and handed over to a brand new clone.

The clone took the seeds and took the incubator with him, nodded to the original body, cast a space spell, and disappeared in the office in an instant.
