Tristan put down the glass in his hand and sat up straight, his face showing a longing and fanaticism that he had never felt before: "My master, his wisdom and learning, beyond the imagination of ordinary people! ”

Todd recalled the ingenious and intricate alchemy laboratory, and asked eagerly, "Excuse me, who is your master?"

"Father, don't worry, when you come to the Papal States, you will naturally meet him. Tristan picked up his glass again and said with a smile, "Let's change the subject, let's talk about the instrument I saw in the afternoon, I have a few questions for you......

The man then asks a series of basic optics and materials science questions, and Todd is amazed by the other party's ability to draw inferences, and on the other hand, he carefully answers them.

The two who had the same topic, under the influence of alcohol, quickly chatted together, and from time to time burst into laughter and exclamations, which attracted the attention of others.

Just as Todd was drinking, a figure in the corner of his eye made his brows jump several times.

Reicher, with a panicked face, stood outside the window of the side hall of the church and beckoned to him.

Under the pretext of urinating, Todd went outside, looked at the nun standing at the base of the wall, looked around carefully, and whispered, "Is there something wrong with me coming out? If it's not urgent, how about tomorrow?"

Richel's face was anxious, his eyes staring into the darkness, without the slightest composure of his past, and his words scared Todd's wine to wake up for the most part.

"Remember the xenophobic shelter I mentioned, the first refugees arrived, and they hid outside the town. 』

————————————

Pretending that something was wrong, Todd hurriedly said goodbye to Tristan, and was led by the nun to a hidden hut outside the town.

Rachel lifted the straw that had piled up beneath the hut, and four figures revealed themselves in the darkness of the night.

Two large and two young, a young couple with their son and daughter, dressed in sackcloth covered with dust and mud, looked in horror at the priest with holy rank.

"I also received the news this evening, this family of four are all aliens, but they have never done anything evil, and they are now being hunted by the people of the Inquisition. Rachel turned her face to Todd and said anxiously, "If we don't help them, the family will definitely be caught and executed, Todd, what are we going to do?"

Todd scratched his scalp hard and shouted in annoyance, "Oh my God, Richel, why is it today?! The Holy Envoy of the Papal States is in the town, and if you bring them in, maybe they will be discovered by the church! Moreover, their visit this time is a golden opportunity for Twilight Town...... But ......"

He lowered his head and glanced at the family of four who were hugging each other and trembling, their hearts were at war, and their faces were cloudy.

"Surely go that way!everybody disperse!Don't let go of every corner!" interrupted the priest's train of thought with a voice in the distance.

Todd used the ability of Eagle Eye to take a closer look, and more than a dozen men in black with blood-colored crosses embroidered on their chests were holding torches and fanning towards the grass shed.

The people of the Inquisition are already so close that they don't have time to think!

Rachel stomped his foot anxiously at this time, and suddenly proposed: "Otherwise, I will lead those people from the Inquisition, and you will take these xenos to the south." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Almost subconsciously, Todd grabbed her hand.

Pursing his lips and sighing, there was no more hesitation and concern in his words, Todd looked at the woman's eyes and said firmly: "Richel, since I agreed to your request, then I will naturally keep my promise." Besides, I can't sacrifice others to save myself!"

While holding the nun tightly, he gestured to the fleeing xenomorph family, signaling them to follow him. Todd and the others avoided the search route and fled towards Twilight.

Looking at the priest in front of her, who was five years younger than herself, and feeling the beads of sweat gradually overflowing from the other party's palm, the woman's heart was calm for some reason.

Walk through an overgrown field and around a bustling night street, where Huggins' convoy camp is ahead.

This is probably the most secret and safe place in all of Twilighttown, and just as Todd had seen the camp gates, a wandering black figure appeared at the end of the street and slowly walked towards him.

"Great, Father, I'm looking for you!"

It's Tristan, the holy envoy of the Papal States!

Todd looked up at the sky, wanting to cry without tears.

Father, did you take all my good fortune away from me because you saw that I had a good time lately?!

Glancing behind him without a trace, Todd walked quickly to Tristan and greeted him affectionately: "Lord Holy Envoy, aren't you going to rest so late?"

Tristan didn't answer his question at all, his face turned to Todd, but his eyes turned behind him, "Father, aren't you going to rest so late?"

Todd smiled awkwardly, and with the hand hidden behind him, he made a "quick walk" gesture towards Richel, lowered his voice, and threw out the reason he just thought of: "The family you see are all fleeing serfs. Due to the lack of labor in Twilight, I have been secretly accepting these people. You may not know that I don't have a good relationship with the nobles because of this......"

"It's just that it's just a matter of accepting a serf, and it needs a priest and a nun to come together, which is really interesting. Tristan winked at Todd and continued with a smile, "Speaking of which, this time I'm coming to Twilight Town, I still need to bring some local specialties to my master, I don't know if you have any recommendations, Priest?"

The words of the other party made Todd instantly understand that Tristan must have seen something, and now he was just taking the opportunity to ask for benefits.

"Twilight isn't rich ......"

Tristan shook his head: "My master treats money like rock. ”

"The farmers in the town have planted 'gospel flowers'. ”

Tristan continued to shake his head: "The beauty of flowers is like a cloud of smoke. ”

Todd clenched his teeth: "In my lab, there is a microscope that I worked so hard to make......"

Tristan clapped his hands and laughed, "That's it......!

Uh-huh!

An angry voice came from behind Todd.

He looked back and was surprised to see that Richer hadn't left yet!

The woman, like an enraged lioness, stared at Tristan with angry eyes.

The envoy put away his smile, swallowed, and dropped a sentence, "Father, don't forget what you promised me." After saying that, he fled for his life and left the place.

————————————————

Late at night, in the woods north of Twilight Town.

Tristan fell face up and back to the ground.

Getting up from the ground, he hurriedly raised his two hands to signal surrender, looked at the woman a few meters away, and said with a wry smile: "Richel, don't you think it's a very dishonorable thing to fight with an ordinary person with a different ability?"

"No, I don't think so. The nun waved upward.

Tristan's feet lifted off the ground and rose into the air. As Richel's hand dropped, his body slammed to the ground again.

The woman sat on the stone, looking at the embarrassed figure of the other party, and no emotion could be heard in her calm tone: "You should know that the thing I hate the most is to get something for nothing." ”

"You're talking about microscopes? Wait! I can explain......"

Rachel didn't intend to give the other party a chance to explain, and once again threw the man to the ground.

Tristan shook his drowsy head, grabbed the roots of the tree that had emerged from the ground with both hands, looked at the woman whose eyes were getting colder and colder, and said busily, "If you want to convince those masters to come to Dusk Town voluntarily, it is not enough to rely on me and my master!

Richel's hand stopped in mid-air.

A man and a woman, a deacon and a nun, looked at each other in a strange posture.

Tristan tried his best to squeeze a smile on his face, and his hands didn't let go of the roots in the slightest, and he said, "By the way, what are the test results tonight?"

"He passed. The woman glared at the man: "When it comes to keeping his promises, Todd is more responsible than you." ”

The man smiled wryly, silent.

Rachel lowered her hand and looked at the other party, "Do you remember our previous agreement?"

Tristan nodded: "We agreed to help each other build a sanctuary together to protect the enslaved and hunted xenomorphs, and to guard the oppressed and mutilated wise." ”

"For so long, I've seen kings with their mouths full of righteousness, and I've seen people who are aliens who only care about profit. In their eyes, xenos are nothing more than tools at their disposal, and no one really cares about our life or death. Rachel sat down on a boulder and looked at the little fire to the south.

Tristan got up from the ground, patted the dust off his body, and sighed as he said, "My life is not easy, the Church is getting stricter and stricter about heresy. Last week, Mr. Adriano, who was studying astronomy, was arrested and sent to the First Inquisition, and although my master tried his best to get out, all his writings and his laboratory were burned. ”

Looking at the lonely and beautiful sideways portrait of the woman, the man was silent for a moment, then plucked up the courage to say: "Richel, go back with me, your parents have been thinking about you." ”

The boulder beneath the nun tumbled from the ground into the air and slammed into Tristan's side.

"From the day I left the capital, the woman who was living in a cage was already lying in the cold underground!
