Volume 1: The Land of the Dead Chapter 65: The Target, Alexia (Part I)

It was midnight on the day of the Feather Fall Festival, and the night of Vikz was at its thickest, and the port city should have been plunged into darkness in the past, but the celebration and carnival of the Feather Fall Festival continued.

Leaning out of the window of the hotel where Roger and the others were staying, the streets and alleys were crowded with people participating in the carnival, and the cold wind mixed with the fine snowflakes still could not extinguish the enthusiasm of the people.

The young bard sings in praise of the gods, but the melody is mixed with the shouts of hawkers, and the long tables on both sides of First Avenue are filled with unlimited white bread and wine, which kicks off the celebration with a night of revelry.

Although the Sabbatical Officials, in accordance with the practice of previous years, in order to preserve the most basic faces of both the Holy City of Kaya and the White Rock Fort, maintained an ambiguous attitude of neither supporting nor opposing the religious activities organized by the church, this could not stop the people from spontaneously celebrating.

Coupled with the fact that the local monastery of Wickz tried to raise money among the big merchants, and finally raised tens of thousands of gold rangs from the merchants on the condition of the right of first refusal to purchase holy water, and now the food, drink, and even lighting fuel provided on the streets were all funded by the Holy Light Church, and all the Marquis of Somerset, who ruled over Vicz, could do was send a large number of city guards to maintain order.

"Hey, half-elf, you called everyone over, but you're here to see the scenery?

Holding his waist, Alway pulled down the gray curtains that had faded over time, which not only blocked the fire and voices outside, but also blocked Roger's interestful snooping eyes.

After parting with Brandon in the afternoon, Roger went alone to the big lighthouse on the east side of Wickz, and when he returned, he lay on the windowsill and didn't know what to think. At this time, he was interrupted by Elway, and Roger, who was still lying on the windowsill, raised his body, twisted his neck and stared at Elway beside him, and said angrily: "Why do you close the curtains, it is the most lively time outside, and the sermon of the people of the Holy Light Church is about to start, it is a rare time to be amused." ”

Probably thinking that it was too troublesome to turn his head and talk like this, Roger simply turned around, propped himself on the windowsill with his backhand, and continued to say: "Besides, why are you still cheeky and mixed with us, this is all back to the Pan Continent with us, shouldn't you have left alone a long time ago and returned to the territory of your elves." ”

"Where is my freedom, and now I'm just on the way with you. ”

The hair floating in his ears was habitually wrapped around Elway's fingers, casually perfunctory to Roger. He doesn't eat Roger's love to talk bad when he is idle, if he really wants to leave alone, Roger, an undisciplined guy, has to hold his thighs and not let go, just deal with a few words.

"Cut, boring. Seeing that Elway was gone, Roger casually threw the cloak on the bed, and crossed Erlang's legs to the only wooden chair in the room, looking around at a large circle of people around him, including Juan, Ryan, Carlos and Defana of the True Knowledge, as well as the Arcane Demon Servant Alley, the first few people were brought out by Roger after careful consideration, after all, Amanda Ruins still needs a reliable person like Lilith to sit in, and Igor's little fat man can't afford to take the lead for the time being.

As for Alley, Roger was about to speak with a straight face, Alley's pure white eyes swept over, and he coldly skimmed Roger, who was uncomfortable for a while, so he had to give up his seat to Alley, and sat down in a clean place on the bed.

"Ahem, the one who called everyone over today is mainly to have a small meeting with you," Roger cleared his throat and pretended to say, "The content of the discussion is the information that everyone has gathered in Port City today and the planning arrangements for the next period of time. ”

"Compared to that," Difana said with a squint as she grimaced at her Subject Three, "Instead, Mentor, your current appearance is what we want to talk about, what are you doing with an eyepatch on your right eye? This is to change your career to be a pirate? I always feel like I've lost my style with you." ”

Reaching out and touching the casually made leather blindfold on his face, Roger glared at Difana's little girl with his remaining left left eye, "Don't talk nonsense, if I change my career, my stingy boss will kill me with a thunderbolt, even if it is scorched, it can be resurrected and split again, alas, this is not good to be a civil servant, and it is life-threatening to change jobs." ”

"Hey, wait a minute, something is wrong, I was led astray by your little girl," Roger came back to his senses, "I continued what I just did, there is not much to discuss in today's meeting, probably these two aspects, each of which I will expand and have three small points, and each small point has three small strips, if it is fast, I estimate that the meeting will end tomorrow morning, I hope everyone will speak enthusiastically, by the way, I agreed with that bald brother to leave tomorrow morning, so everyone's speeches are compact??? woo." ......”

Roger's fragmented act of death was unexpectedly educated by Alley's silence technique, Roger opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't spit out a syllable, learning from Elway to ignore Roger, who had lost his teeth and claws, Alley held his cheek with one hand, and pointed with his slender fingers, signaling Ryan next to Roger to continue.

"I'll do it anyway. Seeing that Ryan was still trying to organize the language, Juan, who had been eager to try it for a long time, walked up and couldn't wait to say, "This afternoon, after separating from the tutor, we wanted to keep up with Difana, who left early, but somehow, all the people in the surrounding shops and rooms ran out for a while, and crowded the streets, and we lost Difana, and then the sky drifted down the shiny feathers, and I also picked up a few pieces." As he spoke, Juan reached into his pocket to take out the feathers for everyone to see, but then his face froze, "Huh, where's my feather?"

"Don't look for it, the white feathers will disappear after midnight of the feather festival, and they will be of little practical use. Having had enough of the fuss, Roger snapped his fingers and lifted Alley's random silence technique, then pinched the crimson feather in his hand to show everyone, "Only a heterochromatic feather like this can be kept." ”

"But I remember when you said that, I think the three of you went back to the hotel together tonight, and Ryan was still helping Defana carry the supplies, so I thought the two of them had caught up with you. Halfway through that, Roger tilted his head and asked Defana.

"No, we met at the corner of the street, and if you have to help me get something, there are only a few steps left. Difana twitched her nose with disgust, "These two fools forgot to take the money, and they still have to buy food at the street corner, if they don't run into me, they will be beaten up by the boss." ”

Clasping his fingers, Roger nodded clearly, "What about the information you collected in the afternoon?"

"I was also crowded into the street by people who suddenly ran out, okay, not only that, but I was also entangled by a few annoying flies," Difana rolled her eyes as she hugged Subject Three, "Although I sent it away, but it also took a lot of time, it would be nice if I could buy the supplies back according to your request." ”

Speaking of this, Difana suddenly remembered something, frowned and recalled, "If I have to say it, in fact, this is not any information, but when the feathers were falling from the sky, I happened to be squeezed by the crowd to the back wall of a monastery, although it was very noisy, but I vaguely seemed to hear the sound of fighting in the monastery, someone was chanting a certain slogan, but only for a moment, I don't know if I heard it wrong." ”

"Is there a conflict in the convent of Wickz?, at the Feather Fall?" Roger frowned, "Could it be that something is going to happen to the Church of the Light? No, looking at the priests and nuns outside, it doesn't look like something has happened." ”

"Forget it, let's do it for now, Carlos, what's the matter with the three of you staying in the hotel?"

"Yes, Mentor," Carlos replied sullenly, already strong enough to get rid of the barren environment of the Necromantic Underworld, and his body became stronger and stronger, as strong as a calf in his teens, "About half an hour before you returned, Mentor, someone tried to enter your room through the window, but fortunately, Alley found and expelled him. ”

Roger looked at Alley, who was holding his cheeks, who casually threw over a gray circular emblem with a vague curved blade depicted on it, Alley stared at the empty place in the corner of the wall, and said with a sideways face, "That guy is a member of the Thieves' Guild, I have seen them in the memory of the mother, I have to say that their stealth skills are indeed two, although they are only a first-order thief, but his 'breath blocking' even I can barely perceive it in the interval of his ventilation." ”

"But that's the strength of it, I ate one of my ice picks, and dragged half of my frozen body away. ”

"Oh, did you really hook out these elusive guys?" Roger was a little surprised at first, and then said with some regret, "They didn't come to me, but they entered the hotel where I stayed?" After so many years, these guys have not only become more cautious, but they still have so much eyeliner. ”

Sighing slightly, seeing that no one spoke, Roger put his hands on his laps and said, "Okay, the intelligence aspect is basically like this, if there is new news, let's communicate more, now, let's move on to the second topic, our next goal." ”

"An island in the middle of an endless sea, Alexia. ”
