Chapter 217: Undercurrent (II)

In the Earl's Court, Joseph and Barnier's four-man squad had brought the dying rebel members to themselves.

"Is that him?"

Sean looked at the man lying on the ground, his clothes already in tatters. Originally supposed to have more than 5000 HP, now there are only 1000 left, and the status is [, Human] favorability is still [Hostile].

"Yes, my lord, a few more people died in the battle, and he was the only one of the seven who was captured alive. Joseph said, looking at the four men beside him.

I have just seen the way the four of them fight, even in the mercenary team, they are definitely at the upper level, they cooperate quite well and the abilities of the four are not weak, I am afraid that my preliminary estimate is not much different from myself!

If such a person followed the Earl, I don't know what would happen to his position......

Sean looked at Joseph's [hesitation!] expression and bent down curiously.

"How?"

"Oh~ It's okay. My lord...... We've got the enemy, and you'll see what to do. ”

It's all half dead on the ground, what can I do, and lock them up together.

"Did any of the rebels with him escape?"

"No, we surrounded the inn, and no one let go. Joseph seemed confident when he said this, and the Barnier Four, behind him, said that they had all been disposed of.

"That's right. My lord, there's one more thing that I've searched for from this man, and I'll leave it to you, I don't know what feels like some kind of church rhetoric. Joseph handed over the little booklet in thick skin.

Sean opened it in his hand, especially after seeing that paragraph, his whole face changed instantly.

[Your previous life was completely in the bliss of ignorance......

It wasn't until darkness came to the door of this fragile world that you woke up from your dream......

Something indescribably terrifying has awakened from eons of sleep...... And everything we know is going to collapse. 】

"On him?"

"Yes, sir. ”

"Lord Earl, I only found out when I snatched his pocket at the last moment, or I would have been destroyed in magic. "Lattina didn't forget to add a little more drama to herself.

"Isn't that what I reminded you......"

"That's what I took too. ”

Sean looked at the four who were arguing again, especially Latina, who was talking.

It was almost embarrassing for the other party to say slowly: "Is it really him?"

"yes, what's the matter, Lord Earl?"

As if he was in deep thought, he didn't immediately reply to the questions of several people, and this kind of words was the same as the ancient gods on the lips of the shallow people he had met before, and they were obviously the words of the believers of the ancient gods.

The rebels still have something to do with the Old Gods?

Sean frowned, looked at the five people in front of him and gave another order......

"Joseph, you have tightened your guard against the city of Oro during this time, and you have to keep anyone in and out of it...... Also, the four of you. According to the previous agreement, since you have captured the rebels, I will give you corresponding work, you were not born in the army, I will not arrange for you to serve in the army, I allow you to be my deployment alone, hidden in the civil force. ”

To put it bluntly, it is a fighter who is cultivated alone.

There is no armed force around me except for the army, and there are things that are not suitable for the people of the army to do, so it is most appropriate for them to go, including collecting intelligence and solving a special task, etc.

On weekdays, they can still be part of the mercenary team, and they can also accept the tasks of the mercenary guild, but once they give the order, they must complete their own business.

Of course, the four of them will not object to this kind of easy and paid work, and even their fan sister asked to become a member of the pro-guard, about which Sean of course said that it depends on their future performance.

After assigning the duties, Sean gathered all his subordinates again, including Devara and the Morgan family.

In front of everyone, he announced the investigation during this period of time, as well as the preparations for war in the Empire......

Obviously, no one knew about it, and everyone had a look of anger on their faces when they talked about the Borgs.

"It's the Borg again, they have been at odds with our Basharan Empire all these years, I thought before that they would likely go to war, but I didn't expect it to really come!"

"Those damn Borgs have been roaming the northern frontiers of the Empire, and sooner or later they're going to call ......"

"At the moment, the north is still too far away, we have to deal with the affairs in the city, and we must not let the rebels take advantage of it, not even anyone!" Sean said as he interrupted the conversation of several people.

The rebels and their reputation are almost [hostile], so as long as you pay more attention to the situation on the sand table of the city during this time, you may be able to find out if they seem to have come to Oro City, but if they have something to do with the ancient gods, it will be a big problem.

........................

Everything was ordered, and Sean went to the underground cell again.

Ulysses was also locked up here just after being caught, but the guy who was beaten half to death was afraid that he wouldn't have a chance to speak at the moment, so Sean still came to Dusty's cell.

The two had talked before, and Sean found that the girl's mental will was weaker than the other two.

"Unfortunately, this time the information I received was more reliable, so another of your companions was also imprisoned, and everyone else died in the battle. Sean said.

As soon as he heard that his companion had been sacrificed, Dusty did not remain silent this time, but scolded angrily in a weak voice.

"You're going to die sooner or later, you murderer!"

"I will die, no one will be able to escape death...... But it's not up to you to decide whether I live or die, maybe we'll all die under the dark forces, and I'm a person who likes to talk directly. Is your so-called revolutionary army touched by the power of the old gods?" Sean asked suddenly.

Dusty didn't speak.

But suddenly there was a state of [Doubt!] above his head.

There was a sneer on his lips.

"This is the new trick of your nobles?What charges are you going to put on us so that we can be publicly executed?Since it all fell into your hands, I never thought I would live......" Dusty glared at Sean.

"No, what is this...... What you found in your companion Ulysses, you probably don't know his notes. Then, in the faint light of the fire, Sean unfolded Ulysses's notes, afraid that the other party would not see them anymore, and even read them to her.

The face of the girl in front of her, who had just finished reading, suddenly became extremely frightened~

"How could it be...... How could it be ......"

"How could Ulysses join them. ”

"What do they represent?"

β€œcthulhu...... Those cultists...... How could they have penetrated deep into the revolutionary army!!"

The girl's body trembled involuntarily.

"Go on, what do these patterns represent?!!" Sean instinctively felt that this was related to the believers of the Old Gods, and the name of the other party was exactly the same as the one who had spoken at the beginning.
