Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Reasonable Cleverness

Leo, who had learned about the situation from Dublan, quickly chased after him following the trail left by the Golden Sect's vehicle, and he also learned about the letter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Dubran stayed, ready to wait for the knights, who were not very badly injured, to wake up, and then return to Taiyan City.

The letters sent from the Second Court are full of mysteries, but the contours of the whole affair are slowly becoming clear.

The Necromantic Guild, the Cult of the Moon, and the Second Court all came for a relic called "Goduner".

The Necromantic Guild wanted to strike first, so it planned an attack on Taeam Castle. The Luna Cult that had arrived for a long time focused on the lone Alina, as if she needed something from her. As for the second court, which has not yet appeared, it is walking unhurriedly, preparing to arrive in Taiyan City first, and then make the next step.

The whole process is complicated, but he gradually discovers that many things are subtly connected.

"Speaking of which, the Mercenary Guild hired the 'Storm Lionheart' to capture ghouls, and it was just in time for the Knights to go out to recruit people..."

Dubran carefully recalled every detail of the beginning, but his questions grew.

Why would an ordinary recruitment operation make an exception and send a whole team of knights, even with a knight captain like Kiel?

The president of the mercenary guild had a deep secret conversation with the lord of the castle the day before this mission was announced, was the content related to this matter?

Does the Warren Chamber of Commerce have a deal with the Second Court and hold more secrets?

Why did the thieves of the Necromantic Guild, as soon as they invaded Taiyan City, go directly to the main palace to take away the tavern hostess, regardless of other places, what secret did she have?

Antore has been trying to break into the Knights for so long, is it just to rebel against this one purpose?

Why was Alina, who was related to that woman, being closely targeted by the Luna Cult, and sending out two groups of people, their purpose was just to catch the blasphemer?

"Ah, that's terrible, there are too many clues, and the clues have become a mess."

Dubran sighed, rubbed his temples, and glanced in Leo's distance.

Even so, I must help Leo-sama.

The hand holding the reins turned white with force, and he clenched his teeth.

"Go and get Punta back first, at least see the body."

"The rest of the people will take this car back to Taeam City, and I will be back by noon."

Dubran pondered for a while, and decided to take a few of the knights who woke up to find the whereabouts of the white horse first, what if Alina was not taken away, but was carried by it all the time.

"Yes, sir."

---------

Somewhere in the dense forest to the west of the black wilderness, under the light of the early sun, the dense green leaves glow with beautiful life, and the stream beside it is babbling and the birdsong is faint.

A white horse was lying on the grass, with wounds of varying shades, and its eyelids drooping weakly, looking very weak.

As the sound of squirming sounded, it raised its head alertly and struggled to its feet.

"Found it! Lord Dubolan! Over here! ”

Several knights poked their heads out of the jungle, saw the weak white horse at a glance, and immediately shouted loudly, looking surprised.

Seeing the familiar knights, the white horse was relieved and lay down again, his eyes full of exhaustion.

Du Bolan and his party immediately surrounded and checked the condition of the white horse.

----------

The sunlight became stronger and stronger, and the convoy of the Golden Sect turned from the eastern avenue of the black wilderness into a quiet path, and then the people in the convoy got off the car one after another and rested in the forest next to it.

“···”

Under the dense shade of the trees, Isestan's expression slowly changed from surprise to solemnity as he looked at the image sent by the communication crystal in his hand.

According to the investigation of Lord Hakunook, the convoy of the Luna Sect that received them was attacked in the Light Leaf Forest, all the samurai believers and priests died, the person in charge, Shengkai, was missing, and the surveillance crystal in the car also malfunctioned, not only could not transmit the news to the Sect Headquarters in time, but even the video of that night was not recorded.

Such a strong team of the Luna God Sect was wiped out overnight?

Those unconscious knights obviously can't do this, so who has so much ability?

"Lord Hakunook, those knights seem to be from Taiyan Castle and have been picked up..."

Sensing something wrong, Isestan panicked at the teleportation crystal.

"It doesn't matter, I personally tried the strength of those knights, and the attacker should be someone else."

"You just keep going, and join up with the other team in the village of Bethes as soon as possible."

The White Arc didn't seem interested in Duboran's affairs, and just urged Ethestan to speed up his trip.

After finishing the video transmission, Bai Zhiao looked at the corpses and bloodstains of the convoy of the Luna Sect around him, and his expression was a little gloomy.

Although it is easy to say about the destruction of the convoy of the Luna God Sect, but in comparison, the believers of the Moon God Sect are stronger than the believers of the Golden Sect, and the strength of the person in charge of Shengkai is not much worse than him, if the attacking side chooses not this team of cars, but his team, it is estimated that it will not be much better.

He had checked that all the priests and believers had died from very similar sword wounds, and their strength was precise and extremely fast, at least at the level of a sword master.

Could it be an organization that uses swords, but how come you have never heard of it?

The most incredible thing is that even Shengkai, a mid-level person who is close to a fifth-level professional, has disappeared silently.

Although the headquarters of the Luna Sect has received a report, it is unlikely that some more reinforcements will be sent at this time.

The ruins of Gaudun are about to open, and these ecclesiastical forces and imperial forces have begun to intervene openly or covertly. Now he is the largest and only person in charge.

"Luckily, Lord Nordul gave me this ahead of time."

The gloom of the white arcane officer was suddenly swept away, and he looked at a bracelet in his left hand, which was slightly shining, exuding a rich light elemental power.

On the side of the Golden Sect convoy, after receiving the instructions of the White Mystery Officer, after resting for a while, the samurai believers stepped onto the convoy one after another.

"Lord Esselstan, what's wrong?"

A samurai believer looked at the absent-minded Essestan and wondered.

"No, it's nothing, let's go."

Essestan smiled bitterly, he couldn't tell the fact that the Luna Church convoy was completely wiped out, so he could only hide it and wait for an explanation from the headquarters or the White Aoguan.

The samurai believers who watched the Golden Cult walked into the car one after another, and Leo, who was far behind, also finished his rest and prepared to continue following.

"Strange, this seems to be the direction to the village of Bethes."

Leo frowned and said in a low voice.

Earlier, when he was riding the convoy of chambers of commerce bound for Taiyan City, he had noticed the scenery around him.

Descend from the eastern avenue of the Black Wilderness and walk on a trail to lead to the mountains, and the nearest village to this trail is Bethes Village, because it is relatively close to the avenue, this village and the chamber of commerce convoy are also relatively close, and it has developed particularly rapidly in recent times, so Taiyan City has even begun to recruit knight squires in this village.

When I first arrived in this world, mysterious caves, strange ghouls, and strange moon mines all kinds of experiences came to mind.

"What do you want to do..."

Leo's eyes flickered, and he quickly chased after him, he now had a premonition that he was getting closer to the truth.

-----

Du Bolan and his party quickly arrived at Taiyan City.

After placing the wounded, Dubran changed his clothes, and he dressed in his formal clothes and went to the hall to meet the messengers who had come from afar.

The gorgeous red carpet spreads all the way after the gate opens, and the golden edges spread all the way to the dark pillars on both sides, and in the center of the circular pavilion is the throne of the lord of the city.

There were already quite a few people standing next to them, and it was not difficult to tell from the dark blue robes on their bodies that they were mages from the second court.

"Allow me to make it clear that I am the Second Court Emissary, Vivien Verpin, and it is an honor to meet the Lord of the City."

As if sensing Dubolan's coming, a blue-haired young man with elegant demeanor stepped out of the crowd, different from the dark blue plain robes, his robes were dark gold, and they were decorated with various beautiful magic patterns.

"Welcome, guests from afar."

Du Bolan smiled slightly, his previous etiquette training made him easy to deal with this kind of occasion, and at the same time motioned to the civil officials behind him to take notes.

There were still a lot of cumbersome etiquette, but Fei Wen didn't seem to want to waste time, smiled to herself, and then snapped her fingers, and the civil officials and mages behind him left in amusement.

"This..."

Dubolan and his civil servants were stunned for a moment, not knowing which play Fei Wen was playing.

"If Lord Dubralan had been in office longer, he would have known what the letter was about."

Vivien said subtly, looking into Dubran's eyes as if she were smiling.

There are many hints in his words.

"Huh."

"Is this your mission?"

"The Astaire royal family will deal with me for rebellion, I can't imagine that they don't care about the life or death of the people of Taiyan City, but they care about whether their shoes are dusty!"

Du Bolan sneered, shocked by the speed at which the royal family gathered intelligence, and at the same time scoffed at the royal family's approach.

Judging from the indifference of the nearby Extreme Rock City and Diyan City to the election of the lord of Taiyan City, it seems that the royal family acquiesced to Du Bolan's "willfulness", and then the second court hinted that the Warren family rebelled against Du Bolan, probably it was also testing the attitude and courage of Du Bolan, the new city lord, and at the same time improving his prestige.

Finally, let Fei Wen come and control Du Bolan as their puppet in the name of rebellion, so that Taiyan City is once again in their hands!

Disgusting cleverness!

"Since I have been tempted with that letter, I think the messenger should know about it."

"Dubolan doesn't serve Astaire, he only serves Taiyan City!"

"So, Envoy, please go back!"

Duberan, who was disgusted by the royal family's methods, directly showed his attitude with a cold drink, and did not give Fei Wen any chance to explain.

The pen in the hands of the civil officials behind him trembled uncontrollably, and even more so after a drink from Du Bolan, it shook to the ground.

Suddenly, the tense atmosphere became awkward.

"Yes... I'm sorry! ”

The good-looking female civil servant was about to cry, and shrunk her head like a turtle, and she didn't stay or stay, and she was so frightened that she dropped her pen on the ground.

"Oh, oh, why should the city lord be so angry."

Contrary to the expectations of Du Bolan and the female civil official, Fei Wen, who was reprimanded, still smiled, and actually bent down to pick up the pen.

"I hope that the next time we meet, we can hold it more steadily."

Fei Wen said gently, the blue light in her hand quietly passed, the dust on the pen was washed away, and then it was returned to the female civil servant with a confused face.

"Thank you for your tolerance..."

The female civil servant was stunned, then choked up, took the pen, bowed apologetically, and withdrew.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Dubran looked at Fivien in amazement, feeling that his previous diplomatic experience was not useful at all.

"What else do you need to say?"

"Of course, it's to help the young and promising city lord, suppress the resistance forces, and completely consolidate the position of the city lord."

Fei Wen's face did not change and said shocking words, and the smile on her face became even brighter.
