nSaint-Servant, Holy Church.

nAndrew felt a headache as he read the information in his hands.

n

n

nIn recent days, more and more grain had stopped growing for some unknown reason.

nSaint-Servant was a city with a large population, and there were also refugees who had fled to the capital because of the Monsters riots.

nNow, the grain in the capital was not growing for some unknown reason.

nIt would not be long before the entire capital fell into a predicament without grain.

n

n

n“Have you not found the reason why the grain stopped growing?”

nAndrew looked at the archbishop in front of him and asked.

nThe archbishop wiped his sweat and said in shame, “Not yet.”

nAndrew frowned, waved his hand and said, “Let the Cardinal Monn come to me.”

n

n

n“Uhh…”

nThe archbishop was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth, not knowing how to say it.

nSeeing this, Andrew frowned and said, “Why aren’t you going?”

nThe archbishop smiled bitterly and said, “Well, the Cardinal Monn hasn’t come to work yet…”

nAndrew:”…”

nHe looked at the time, 8:28.

n

n

nAndrew held his forehead.

n…

nAt 9 am, Meng En arrived at the holy church on time.

n“System, punch in for work.”

n you have successfully punched in for work once. Your strength has increased slightly.

n“Monn, the Pope wants you to go over.”

nAn archbishop walked over and said to Monn.

nMonn nodded, indicating that he understood.

n

n

nWhen he arrived at the Holy Church, Monn saw Andrew staring at him with a resentful gaze.

nMonn shook off the goose bumps on his body, took a step back, and said hesitantly, “Pope Andrew, what are you doing?”

nAndrew coughed lightly and discussed, “Cardinal Monn, look at the work system…”

nWithout waiting for Andrew to finish, Monn said firmly, “I refuse!”

nAndrew:”…”

nHe hadn’t even finished speaking and he was already rejected?

nSighing, Andrew waved his hand, “Forget it, go ahead.”

nThen he said seriously, “I guess you’ve heard about the grain issues these days.”

nOf course, Monn had heard about it. Not only had he heard about it, but he also knew about it very well.

nBecause of the shortage of food, the price of grain had skyrocketed recently. His small treasury was rapidly shrinking. How could he not know about it!

nAndrew said again, “I’m going to let you investigate this matter.”

nMonn’s expression turned serious, “Please hand it over to me!”

nSo proactive?

n

n

nSeeing Monn being so proactive, Andrew suddenly hesitated.

nHow could Monn not be proactive?

nIf he didn’t solve it, the money he had saved with great difficulty would be spent on food.

nAfter accepting the mission, Monn walked out of the Holy Church and headed straight for the northern farmland.

nAs soon as he arrived.

nMonn frowned.

nA strong pungent smell rushed into his nose and his head.

nIt was like overturning sulfuric acid.

nMonn let out a breath and hurriedly used Holy Power to seal his mouth and nose.

nAs far as the eye could see, all the crops on the farmland were rotten.

nThe soil that was supposed to fertilize was now stained with black mud filled with malice.

nIt was obvious that someone did it intentionally

nMonn continued forward and saw the farmers sitting on the ridge of the field dejectedly.

nHe can’t help but sighed.

nThese fields were their lives.

nNow that the fields had been infected, there was no source of food.

nThose mean nobles were not easy to deal with.

nHowever, Monn only sighed. After all, this was the normal life of this world.

nHe could not change anything, nor did he want to make the changes.

nWalking forward, Monn patted an old farmer on the shoulder and asked, “Old man, can you tell me if anything strange had happened here?”

nThe old man was shocked awake from his dejection. After seeing Monn’s appearance, he said in surprise, “Red robe! It’s the Cardinal!”

n“The Cardinal is here to solve our problem!”

nWithout answering Monn’s question, the old man ran straight to the village and shouted happily.

nMonn was speechless.

nHe did not expect the old man to still be so energetic despite his age.

nNot long after, Monn was surrounded by villagers.

nThey were chattering, causing Monn to be unusually puzzled.

n“Stop!”

nThere was a trace of Holy Power in their voices had the farmers in awe.

nSeeing that it had quieted down, Monn asked, “Can anyone tell me what strange things have happened around here recently?”

nThe farmers looked at each other. In the end, the old man raised his hand and said, “If there’s anything strange, it’s only these farmland.”

nMonn was speechless. who could not tell that there was something wrong with the farmland?

n“Other than the farmland?”

nThe old man shook his head.

nMonn sighed and waved his hand to dismiss the farmers, leaving the old man behind.

nHe walked to the ridge of the farmland and the ninja dug out a piece of soil that was covered in black mud.

nHe used his Holy Power to sense it carefully.

nThe entire piece of soil was like a piece of copper and iron that was difficult to penetrate.

nAfter a few minutes, the Holy Power finally pierced through the black mud.

nA weak vitality came from it.

nMonn suddenly understood.

nThe black mud was like an impermeable membrane, isolating the life in the soil in the dark.

nThe crops could not enjoy the soil nurturing life, so they naturally stopped growing and even began to rot.

nThe problem was found, but how to solve it?

nHow did the black mud come about?

nUntil the afternoon, Monn still had no clue.

nAt this moment, there was a sudden banging sound in the distance.

nMon squinted his eyes and looked over. A group of civilians were building houses.

nMonn asked casually, “Why are there so many new houses?”

nThe old man replied, “Our village recently accepted a group of refugees. We have no place to live, so of course we have to build houses.”

nRefugees?

nMonn’s eyes lit up, as if he had found a direction.

n“Bring me to see those refugees.”

nThe old man was puzzled, but he still led Monn over.

nOn the beam of the house, an old man with beard caught the piece of wood that was thrown up and scolded jokingly, “John Boy, are you trying to smash me to death? You used so much strength!”

nThe young man named John scratched his head and said innocently, “I didn’t expect uncle’s strength to be so small.”

n“You Brat!” The bearded man was about to come down.

nAt this moment, the old man walked over with Monn.

nEveryone stopped playing and said respectfully, “Cardinal!”

nMonn glanced around and finally fixed his gaze on the silver-haired young man.

nAnd the silver-haired young man was the young man named John.

nIn Monn’s perception, this John was as bright as a professional flame in these people.

nWith an amethyst level strength, but disguised himself as a vagrant?

nThere must be a problem!

nMonn stared at John and said coldly, “There’s something I need you to cooperate with the investigation.”

nThis…

nThe others looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

nJohn pointed at himself and said innocently, “Me? Sir, did you make a mistake?”

n“Right, you must have make a mistake. John can’t do something bad.”

n“Cardinal, why don’t you confirm it again?”

nThe other villagers defended John one after another.

nThe corners of John’s mouth curled up slightly.

nHe had thought about this scene more than ten times in his mind.

nHumans were really easy to fool. All his efforts he put to pretend to be a good person these days had not turned all in vain.

nHoho Dear Cardinal, do you want to hurt an innocent person like me in front of so many people?

nHe looked at Monn with pleasure in his heart.
