Chapter 14: Darwin
The night is thick and the mountain breeze is slightly cool. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoLeo stood a little helpless in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, and the deadly blade in front of him was still clearly stopped in the air, and he didn't know when he would continue to stab at him. Several successive escapes from death made the back of the magic apprentice covered with sweat, and the clothes on his body were also scratched by the sharp stones and broken wood in the previous rolling ground, and a cold wind blew through his bare skin, and the heat of his body dissipated in the air with sweat, Leo's body couldn't help but tremble a few times.
"You don't have to worry about him, he can't move." The mysterious man Lei Feng seemed to notice Leo's gaze at the assassin in front of him, so he explained: "A mere cultivator at the peak of the fourth level will not be able to get rid of my confinement at all. "Mere fourth? Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes, if a fourth-level mid-level cultivator could only be described in just two words, then how could he describe himself as a guy who wasn't even a first-level cultivator, poor ant?
"Alright, it's going to be dawn soon, so let's end this matter as soon as possible." A loud yawn came into Leo's ears, and the mysterious man Lei Feng's words began to have a hint of impatience: "Boy of the Sargeras family, I came this time to give you a task. β
Task? Leo's heart jumped, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition: "What mission?" β
"You just talked to that kid from the Lean family for a long time, right?" Although the mysterious man Lei Feng said a question sentence, his tone was very affirmative, which made Leo's heart jump again, it was obvious that this Lei Feng had already lurked near the fire, but the magic apprentice was immediately relieved - since this Lei Feng can subdue the fourth-level mid-level warrior Ada with one move, then it is not worth making a fuss if the three people next to the fire can't find his traces, so Leo answered: "Yes, Mr. Lei Feng." β
The mysterious man Lei Feng continued to ask, "Well, then you should know that this kid from the Li'an family is now preparing to become a blue-clothed cardinal, right?" β
"Yes, Mr. Lei Feng."
"But now that the kid of the Lean family can use his head as a ball, then naturally he can't continue to be a bullshit bishop, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Lei Feng."
"So you take that letter of appointment in his arms and go and be this bullshit bishop for him."
"Yes, Lei Fengβwhat?" Leo was taken aback, the magic apprentice's mouth wide open, and it looked like he could fit at least two duck eggs.
"Smack!" A strong wind suddenly appeared in the air in front of Leo, wrapped in a piece of parchment and slapped directly on Leo's face, although this parchment was thinner than Leo's nails, but Leo felt as if he had been slapped in the face by someone, and the whole person involuntarily took a few steps back, accidentally tripped over a stone and fell on all fours, his face was full of hot pain.
"Obedience or death, understood?" The words of the mysterious man Lei Feng drifted into the ears of the magic apprentice.
"Ming, understood." Leo nodded helplessly, the situation is stronger than people. But he immediately remembered a very crucial question: "But what if I am seen through?" "The Church of Light has always had a harsh and simple punishment for those who pretend to be clergy - the death penalty. No one likes to die, and while Leo doesn't want to die at a young age in the wilderness of the Lito Mountains, that doesn't mean he likes to be burned at the stake of the Church.
"What are you afraid of, since this kid from the Li'an family has died in this wilderness, then you don't have to worry about others seeing through your identity. I don't know how many people can't take the position of the blue-clothed bishop, so it's cheap for you to let the kid go, and you're still pushing back here. The mysterious man Lei Feng was obviously a little dissatisfied, and after a pause, he continued: "What are you still doing in a daze, you can go." β
"Huh? Yes, I'll be right away right now. Leo was stunned for a moment, then grabbed the parchment in his hand and walked away, and a muffled sound suddenly sounded in the darkness, followed by a cry of pain from Leo's mouth who had fallen into a dog and ate.
"Wait!" Leo, who stood up again, was stopped as soon as he took a step, and the magic apprentice turned around very helplessly: "Is there anything else you have to order?"
"Hmm," the mysterious man Lei Feng said after a deep sigh, "According to the custom of the church, every bishop should have a temple warrior by his side as a personal guard, if you go to the post alone, the possibility of goofs will be greatly increased... Feed! That kid over there with a tattered sword playing handsome, you can speak now, what's your name? β
As soon as these words came out, Leo subconsciously looked in a certain direction behind himβthe white sword light that almost took his life. After a brief silence, a hoarse but determined voice rang out: "Darwin Manstein, Temple Warrior." There is no doubt that this voice naturally belonged to the owner of the deadly sword, the personal guard of Cardinal Anthony in Blue, and at the same time the assassin who killed Anthony on the spot with a sneak attack from behind, Ada.
"Very good, boy named Darwin. I asked, you answered, if I found out that you were lying, then you were dead, you know? The mysterious man Lei Feng sneered, and continued without waiting for Darwin's answer: "Hmph, I heard that the temple warriors have a supreme rule passed down from generation to generation - honor is my life, I didn't expect that you, this kid, would sneak attack and kill a blue-clothed bishop without permission, do you still have a little temple warrior honor in your heart?" β
Darwin chose silence.
Lei Feng's tone began to become a little cold: "Darwin, the Temple Warrior, I think you should know the fate of murdering a bishop. β
"Yes." Darwin's voice is unwavering.
Lei Feng continued to ask: "That's why you want to kill Leo, in addition to preventing leaks, you also want to disguise his body as you, so that people will think that the Templar Darwin died heroically in order to protect Lord Anthony, so that you can live incognito, right?" β
"Yes." Darwin's voice suddenly fluctuated, and Leo suddenly realized why the other party wanted to kill him.
"But Leo is not dead, and there is one more me here, your plans have all been lost, as long as the church knows about the situation here, then all that awaits you is endless pursuit and escape."
There was a sudden and almost imperceptible tremor in Darwin's voice: "Yes. β
The mysterious man Lei Feng's words suddenly brought a hint of a smile, like a shrewd hunter watching the fox who thought he thought was cunning step by step into the trap he had laid in advance: "So if you want to live, there is only one choice, and that is to work for me, understand?" β
Darwin fell silent.
Leo, who was listening from the sidelines, suddenly shivered involuntarily, as if a poisonous snake was quietly watching him. Darwin's voice rang out again: "You mean - you want me to protect him?" β
