After passing through a few dark alleyways, a low, burning shack came into view of Pedi, and next to the fire, several men armed with short swords surrounded a thin figure in rags.

Nearby, more men with daggers are driving away onlookers, and there are checkpoints they have set up at key points along the street.

This is Pedi's pre-arranged people, they are not guards, they are a group of mercenaries, and Pedi's servant Wren is commanding this group of mercenaries.

"Your Excellency!" Wren's face was overjoyed when he saw Pedi arrive, and he pointed to a person beside him and said, "This is Luke, the leader of this mercenary group. ”

"Sir Pedy, Luke's mercenary regiment is at your disposal!" Luke took off the dome helmet on his head and bowed.

Pedi nodded, "Thank you very much for your support, Mr. Luke, as much as I'd love to have a drink with you, I'll have to settle the problem first." As he spoke, he scanned everything around him, and the figure surrounded by the mercenaries did not intend to give up resistance, the arcane missile brewing in the other party's hand.

"Of course!" Luke put on his helmet again, and then led several mercenaries with iron shields to slowly approach.

Pedi slowly approached the magician, he was not afraid of the magic in the other party's hand at all, "Cowlil, give up your resistance, no magician can fight against a paladin at such a close distance!" As he spoke, a golden circle of light around his body slowly spread,

"I can assure you, your magic is useless!" the steel sword in Peidi's hand shimmered with a mesmerizing halo of substance-like holy power.

"Powerful and pure holy power!" The magician's face changed, and then he shook his backhand, and the magic prepared in his hand suddenly dissipated into the air, "You are the people of the 'Tower of Dawn'?"

"'Tower of Dawn'?" Pedi was stunned, "What's that?"

"Not from the Tower of Dawn?" Cowlier was stunned for a moment when he saw the performance on Pedy's face, and then asked uncertainly, "Is it an agent from the Security Department?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Lord Cowlier!" Peddy shrugged and pulled out the crystal pendant around his neck, "Sheriff of the Imperial Capital South Sheriff's Office, Peddy Reagan, Senior Agent of the Security Service. ”

"Oh?" the magician looked stunned, "the second son of the Reagan family?" He didn't take the title of sheriff of Pedi in his eyes at all, he looked Pedi up and down, "A powerful paladin. ”

"I didn't expect me to be so famous. Pedi was a little surprised.

"The priest of the Church of the Holy Radiance spreads the name of your genius as he spreads the faith. Collier looked at Pedi seriously, "However, this time they are not lying, you are indeed very powerful, and under the interference of your holy power, the power of my spells has been suppressed to the minimum." ”

Pedi was stunned, then relieved that his Paladin Mentor, Bishop Geoffrey, had told him about it, but Pedi didn't take it to heart.

"If you want to keep the confrontation going, the outcome will be very bad for you. Pedi ignored the compliment.

Collier was smiling and looking at Pedi seriously, the hostile power around him tingling the skin around him, but he didn't care at all.

"Are you sure you're going to let me use force?" said Pedy, who lost patience.

Collier stopped looking, he sensed Pedy's determination, and hurriedly said, "I can go with you, but before I can say a few words to you alone." ”

"It's not in accordance with the regulations. Pei Di's heart moved, but he still subconsciously refused.

Master Collier sneered, "To hell with those rules, Reagan boy, there are mercenaries all around, and you're the only one here...... I'm just an old man with nothing now, I don't care about anything, and if you stick to your rules, all you get will be my corpse..."

"Don't doubt the words of a magician. Collier pulled a complete magic scroll from his bosom.

"You—" Pei Di's expression froze, and the holy power around his body gathered together like substance.

"Just a few words!" the magician straightened up, not afraid of Pedi's power, "Are you afraid?"

"You only have two minutes!"

"Your Excellency?" Wren was a little uneasy.

Pedi shook his head to signal Wren not to worry, he looked at Luke and ordered, "Let your people take ten steps back." ”

"Yes..."

Luke would never go against his employer's will.

Soon, only Pedi was left around Cowlier, and he casually sketched out a magic circle, and then, the sensitive wind system detected the slight flow of magic in the surrounding space, and he said frankly: "Dear Mr. Sheriff, do you think I just walked out like this, and there was a chance of survival?"

Pei Di raised his eyebrows, "My people have surrounded this place, and no one can threaten your life!"

His tone was confident and unmistakable.

"You mean those mercenaries?" Cowlier shook his head, he suddenly became a gentleman, a little bit of a magician, "I was surprised by your arrival... Well, how can I say it, the 'Tower of Dawn' is the most rigorous group of people I have ever met, and you can't find my hiding place first, the only explanation is that you are being used. ”

"So, that's why you don't want to come with me?" said Pedi coldly.

"No, no, no!" Collier waved his hand, "you misunderstood me, and I would love to go with you, because I need your protection, but not in this way. ”

"Oh?" said Pedy after a pause.

"I have a stand-in, a perfect stand-in, and he would..."

"Good!" Pedi agreed without waiting for Collier to finish, "a good idea." ”

"You?"

Pei Di smiled and said, "I'm also curious about what happened next, I'll let my henchmen follow you, if you dare to tease me, you'll know the consequences." ”

"I can swear. Cowlier looked at Pedi with a disapproving smile, "Time will tell." ”

"Wait!" Pedi didn't intend to talk to him any longer, dropping two words and turning to Wren's place, whispering in Wren's ear.

Wren never questioned Pedy's decision, and after Pedy's order, he glanced at Luke, who was on guard, and the two approached Cowrell again.

This time Cowlier didn't resist, and stayed where he was.

Pedi looked around, there were all low shacks in the vicinity, the stench of the nearby manure pits was dizzying, Luke's men were on guard at several key points, and the nearby residents had all been driven to another area.

Everything is normal, there is nothing suspicious at all.

"Boom!"

"Drop!

Suddenly, the sound of weapons clashing and a shrill magic whistle reached Pedi's ears, and his face changed suddenly, and he turned sharply to look at Collier.

There, nothing happened.
