Chapter 171: Grace and Righteousness!!

The assassin who infiltrated the palace was still not found. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After the entire palace was put under martial law, the guards turned the entire mansion upside down, but still did not find any clues about the assassin, and even the detectives who were good at detecting and tracking the guards were helpless against the situation, according to their words, the assassin jumped out of the window after murdering the last group of guards he encountered, but then disappeared without a trace.

They searched all the rooms in the mansion where people could hide, or the mainland paths, the rockeries and rivers, and even after a careful search of the perimeter of the sin workshop, the conclusions they came to did not change.

The only thing that can be said to have changed is probably the dust in a certain area on the roof of the sin workshop, which is missing such a thin layer.

And ask the sinners in the workshop? The guards who dared to do so were given a "roll" without any emotional ups and downs, except for the face of being beaten like a pig's head.

After going back and forth two or three times, the helpless guards stopped visiting the sinner's workshop, and the assassin who couldn't figure out what the purpose was, and only made a big fuss in the palace, could only be dealt with as if he had escaped, after all, assassins were different from knights, they came and went without a trace, not to mention that the Templar assassins had the standard claw props, and it was not difficult to sneak out of the palace without attracting anyone's attention.

However, no matter how great the assassin's skills were, he didn't catch this guy who could enter and leave the palace illegally without much effort, and the entire guard class of the palace was naturally severely punished by the angry royal family, but after cutting off the heads of several guard leaders to make an example, the high-level of the palace unexpectedly did not make more moves, and the customary "big blood exchange" was not carried out, but after finding someone to replace the position of the guard leaders, the security of the entire palace was strengthened.

And after doing enough superficial work, the royal family can be regarded as saving their face, and as for the sin workshop that even the guards are afraid of, the royal family's handling method is very inconsistent with their strong style - "leave it alone".

However, it is not accurate to say that it is placed, because although the royal family did not send people with great fanfare on the surface, in places where no one noticed, there were still people who secretly negotiated with sinners to a certain extent.

——————————————————————————————————————————

The royal residence occupies a vast area, not only composed of a large number of buildings, but also a small but very beautiful mountain in its so-called back garden.

Not only is the mountain a beautiful mountain, but the trees are evergreen all year round, and there is also a spring water that emits a pale white glow at night.

Legend has it that this spring can be used as medicine, and its medicinal effect can even live and die, flesh and bones, and it is rumored that the royal family of the country chose to build the palace here, mostly because of the miraculous effect of this spring water.

These so-called baseless legends were naturally not believed by the sinner girl, but even so, she left her workshop at night for the sake of her new friend she had just made today, and came to this hill in the royal family's back garden.

Humming to an unknown tune, the sinner clutched the barrel in her hand, almost one-third her height, and jumped barefoot over the bluestone slabs along the way.

Of course, the girl knew that this clear spring in the palace was not as powerful as the legend, but as an old tenant here, she still knew that although this thing was not so godly, if it was used to assist other herbs to make potions for people to treat external injuries, it could still be used as a very good carrier.

Bypassing the three groups of sleepy guards at the entrance of the spring, the girl finally came to the eye of the clear spring with the constant sound of the shackles colliding.

But just as the girl was about to put down the barrel in her hand and try to scoop out a bucket of spring water from the spring, the girl suddenly straightened up as if she sensed something, and looked at a small forest not far from the spring.

"What are you doing here, the current king of this country. ”

"I just wanted to meet you, but I didn't expect that even if you were wearing the shackles that sealed the demons, your sense was still so sensitive. With a slight cough, a figure flashed in the grove beside the spring.

The man was tall and burly at the same time, but he hid his figure in a very wide cloak.

"It's not as powerful as you think. The girl shook her head and placed the barrel she was holding in her arms on the ground.

"But I'm sorry for you, I've been doing well lately. ”

"Is everything alright... That's the answer you answer every time. The man paused, groaned slightly, took a small box from his pocket, and handed it to the girl.

"This is for you, you came here to fetch water this time, right to treat that assassin, this time, it's also your fateful friend? ”

"Well, I think he's a funny guy, just like you were back then. The girl didn't take the pill for the first time, and she didn't show the slightest look of surprise at all, just quietly looked at her old friend.

"What is this. ”

"The wound medicine that the old lady researched. The man still held the pill in his hand, but he was not annoyed that the girl did not take the medicine as soon as possible, but waited quietly for the girl's response.

However, the girl did not give the man the answer he wanted, she just shook her head quietly.

"No need, he's my friend, I'll just come by myself. ”

The man was stunned for a moment, a little stiff and frozen, but as the initial shock faded, a faint anger suddenly rose from his heart.

"After all this time, you still can't forget my so-called betrayal? Since then, I have become king, and Sakura's family has lived a prosperous life, which can be regarded as fulfilling her original wish, but you, why still refuse to forgive me, we... Aren't they friends?"

"Because we were friends in the first place, Sakura and I helped you get the throne of this country. Even after listening to your words, I put on this pair of shackles, Sakura... The girl smiled, and did not continue, but lifted the barrel in her hand, and gradually sank it into the white spring. "But at the end of the story, I realized that you weren't probably the person Sakura and I were looking for. ”

"You... Is it true that a mistake made once by a person cannot be undone in this life?" Looking at the girl's figure, which was all within easy reach but far away in the sky, the man finally broke out, he roared, and the box containing the holy medicine in his hand was also crushed by him.

"Something ... It's not something that can be solved by just apologizing. The girl sighed, shook her head slightly, and at the same time pulled the rope attached to the handle of the barrel, and slowly lifted the barrel that had been filled with spring water to the shore.

"Okay. . . Listening to the sinner's words, the man laughed angrily, and his broad palm gripped harder and harder, and even pinched out the very strong healing elixir in the box.

"Since you've said everything you have to say, then I won't tell you anything more. Throwing the scrapped pill in his hand on the ground casually, the man turned around, and his face hidden under the cloak became more and more gloomy.

"This ritual is very important, if it can be successful normally, I will naturally open your shackles and let you go free, but once you lose the key, then between you and me... I won't go to the assassin, you know the consequences! I'll give you the opportunity... ”

"Is it ... The girl didn't show the slightest fear of the man's threat, and didn't even pay much attention to the man's fading figure, but slowly lifted the bucket and put it at her feet.

"So... It's not that I don't want to forgive you. ”

——————————————————————————————————————————

"Hurry up... Alan, you quickly expose your little belly. Holding a small crockpot filled with a colorful and unknown thick liquid in her hand, the sinner girl smiled all over her face while using the brush in her other hand to poke Alice's face full of "unwillingness".

"What the hell is in this jar of yours, colorful, I don't want to use this suspicious medicine!" Alice's face was full of displeasure, and the body sitting on the bed kept falling backwards, and thanks to the long hands and feet this time, the speed of slipping away was so fast, even the girl didn't catch him.

However, the monk could run the temple, and the knife wound on Alice's waist made him unable to exert much strength at all, and it didn't take long for the medicine brush in the girl's hand to poke it again.

"This is my special potion, which is not sold outside, cures all diseases, and the medicine is eliminated, I specially made it for you, you touch this temperature, just out of the pot, and it is still warm!"

"You... It's really an incredible guy.,You and I are not related.。。。 Why... Feeling that what the girl said was true, Alice's originally somewhat resistant look was gradually replaced by surprise, and at the same time, he no longer tightly guarded the bandage on his abdomen, but began to untie it himself little by little.

After all, if the girl wanted to harm herself, she would have already died, and she would not use the poison now, although the color of her jar of ointment looked strange.

"There was a guy who said the same thing about me ... As for why I helped you, didn't I tell you? Seeing that Alice no longer ran away, but slowly untied the bandage on her abdomen, the girl also put away her unserious smile at the beginning.

"I just think you're related to me. ”

"There is fate... It's a lot like what you said. Alice snorted softly, no longer hesitating, and lifted the bandage around her waist completely, revealing the wound below that had not yet healed completely.

"Is it ... The girl smiled again, the same hippie smile she had always had, only this time she took the medicine brush and carefully helped herself with the medicine.

Looking at the girl who was now seriously medicating him, Alice's heart, which had not been touched for a long time as an Assassin, felt a little strange for the first time, which reminded him of the time when he had not joined the Templar Order, and at the same time, it seemed that there were any memories that he wanted to remember, but he couldn't remember anything.

And after a slight headache, he no longer forced himself to recall, after all... It probably doesn't matter.

————————————————————————————————————————————

It's night.

Standing in front of the bed of the sinner girl, Alice touched her wound that was no longer painful, and looked at the girl in front of her with a complicated face.

The girl's ointment really lived up to the name of the potion, and in the early morning of the second day after the potion was applied, Alice felt that the wound was constantly hot, and when Alice curiously lifted the bandage again, she was shocked to find that her normal wound, which would go to Hades if not handled properly, had recovered within a few hours.

Looking at the golden key that hung on the girl's chest as a pendant, Alice hesitated, he understood that as long as he took the griffin key, this girl, even if his savior was powerful in the palace, would not escape the responsibility after all, and even because of this, plus her identity as a sinner...

Did he really want to carry out the Templar Order's mission and take the key that meant life to the girl? He really didn't want to make a decision now, but it was almost the deadline for the mission.

Whether to choose the glory of the Knights Templar, or to stick to the bottom line as a human being.

Alice was confused, as someone who had killed countless people and completed countless difficult tasks... Finally confused for the first time.

As the minutes passed, Alice hesitated for a long time, sitting outside the girl's door and thinking constantly, but in the end, he finally made up his mind.

"Wow... The homemade bell sounded the trumpet of the morning, but the sinner girl did not open her eyes immediately, but slowly touched her chest with her right hand.

But this time, the girl did not touch the golden key that should have been hung on her chest to get it.

"Well, that's the choice Mr. Assassin made... The girl sat up in a daze, bathed, dressed, climbed the steps leading to the warehouse, and opened the door of her workshop, as if she did not see the many impenetrable guards who surrounded the entire warehouse, and many strange people who could float in the air without relying on props, but only stood up to the burly man who was the leader.

"I said ... Wang fu.. It's my home base after all. ”

So said the man, the king of the empire.

——————————————

In the basement room of the warehouse workshop, the rabbit doll that had been held in the arms of the sinner girl lay down.

The doll fell to the ground, covered in dust, but the strange-looking puppet shook violently for a moment while lying on the spot, and a phospho-blue flame slowly rose from the doll's eyes, and finally completely enveloped the entire doll.

The doll with the phosphorus fire stood up, its eyes seemed to be able to see through the heavy earth above its head, the countless woods in the palace, the sinner girl surrounded by the guards, the Alice flying with the key in the woods, and the elite royal guards of the palace who were waiting for Alice to pass through and would definitely put Alice to death.

"Sure enough, thieves should die. ”
