Fort Volral.

Papal Squad Station.

"Mrs. Semerhill. Where are you going? Standing at the door of the castle's only residence, Alfred looked at the woman with wariness in his eyes.

A smile flashed in the black widow's blue eyes, and she said, "It's not a good idea to be trapped here, I would like to ask the Bishop to see if I can communicate with the Mage Council and some of the upper echelons to see if I can resolve the conflict between them." After all, I'm more familiar with them. ”

Alfred said with a blank face, "Madame, please wait a moment, I need to go in and ask the Bishop." ”

In the inner hall room, Andy was wearing Luo Lan's robe, gently stroking the magic pattern on his hand, he squeezed it hard, and sighed very comfortably, this is the feeling of the bishop.

Once he had it, he felt as if he had been given supreme power, as if with a wave of his staff, countless people would be willing to die for him and get his sister back.

At this moment Alfred hurried in.

"Lord Andy, Black Widow wants to leave here under the pretext of going to the upper echelons of the Mage Guild to clear up relations, you see?"

"That'...... What do you think?" Although he became Luo Lan's disciple, Andy also used to be Al Fried's apprentice. Psychologically, there was no way to turn it around all at once, although Alfred showed enough respect, and to his surprise, the other party did not behave unnaturally at all?

"If she goes out, maybe she can delay for a while, maybe she has other purposes, but I feel more at ease when she's not here than here, this woman always makes me feel dangerous. Alfred spoke out what he felt in his heart.

Andy thought for a while and said, "Yes, the teacher once asked us to beware of this woman, since she is willing to take the initiative to leave, then we don't need to stop it, anyway, we only need to survive these few days and the mentor will come back." ”

"Good. I'm going to get back to her. ”

As Angus Gale walked along admiring the good horses in the castle, he suddenly saw Madame Semerhill riding out of the castle in a carriage, and he was slightly startled and then frowned.

Standing in place, he thought about it, and finally decided to come to the temporary mansion, and after a few words of conversation with the two guards, he walked through a cloister and came to the hall, he first looked at Alfred, who was standing at the door, and asked seemingly casually, "Who is in charge now?"

Alfred's heart suddenly sudden, and he pretended to look at the other party very strangely: "Of course it's Bishop Landiston, is there anyone else?"

Angus Gale looked at him, smiled lightly, and said, "I'm coming to find that 'someone else', please let me go and see him." ”

"Brother Angus Gale. What the hell do you want to do?" Alfred's hand immediately rested on the hilt of his sword, and said coldly, "Lord Bishop, please go back, it is inconvenient for him to see you now." ”

"Don't be angry," said Angus Gale, taking a slight step back, still with a smile on his face, "I am sure that the Bishop also said something before leaving, perhaps about me, and I believe that he is wise." ”

"I don't know what you're talking about. Alfred took another step forward with a straight face.

"No, you know. ”

Angus Gale kept smiling, he took a step back, and spread his hands, "Well, I don't insist on what I say, but I just saw Madame Semehil go out, so I boldly assume that she should have been here before, right?"

Alfred did not speak.

"Well, you don't need to say it, I already know the answer...... In that case......" Angus Gale suddenly restrained his smile and changed to an extremely serious face. "Originally, I didn't want to do much, but I thought that if something happened, I wouldn't be able to escape, and I had to come to you to make it clear, which was really helpless. ”

"What will happen?" Alfred couldn't help but ask, his nerves were more sensitive than usual.

Angus Gale smiled and didn't speak.

"Captain Alfred, let Brother Angus Gale in. ”

The voice from behind him made Alfred's face change, and he turned around sharply and said, "Your Excellency, ......"

"No need to pretend. Andy, who walked out of the door, pulled up his hood a little, showed half of his face, and said very calmly: "The mentor said before he left that this matter cannot be concealed from Brother Angus Gale, and he also said that Brother Angus Gale is a smart man, and smart people never do stupid things, if it is not good for us, he can choose not to say it, and he doesn't have to run over to make us wary, am I right, Brother Angus Gale?"

"Not bad," Angus Gale applauded, "the interim head chosen by the Bishop of Landiston is really good. ”

"Let's go in and talk, it's not convenient here. Andy turned sideways and pointed into the room.

Seeing that the obstruction was ineffective, Alfred sighed, and had no choice but to give in, but followed Andy into the room, and stood there without saying a word after closing the door to the light.

Angus Gale didn't seem to care, and he waved his hand. "I came here because I just saw that Mrs. Semerhill actually went out alone, and I learned that I actually came to you before I went out?"

"She's only here to ask if she can be allowed to mediate, what's wrong with that?" Andy and Alfred looked at each other, they didn't see anything wrong, was it because they were afraid that Lady Semerhill would overwhelm the manpower here? I'm afraid that some mages have already made these inquiries clear, not to mention, from the very beginning, they have not hidden their numbers and strength from the mage society.

"If so, that's bad. Angus Gale smiled wryly, "If my guess is right, she's here to test you." ”

"What, tempting us?" said Andy and Alfred, looking at each other.

Andy couldn't help but ask, "How did she see it?"

Angus Gale shook his head and said, "Since I can see that Bishop Rantiston is not here, then this smart woman of Semerhill can also see some clues, if she keeps her mouth shut, it will be fine, the key thing is that she came to test you just now, which makes her judge deeper." ”

He sighed and said, "Although I haven't been in contact with Bishop Rantiston for a long time, I also know some of Bishop Lantiston's styles, he knows any plan, and he doesn't need others to dictate him, presumably the adults have already thought about the next steps when they encounter this conflict." Besides, with the careful prudence of the Bishop, even if she agreed to this matter, how could she let an outsider go alone and be disturbed to send an attaché of the Holy See to follow her?

Andy's face turned pale, he just wanted to let the black widow go farther, but he didn't expect that there was such a big omission unconsciously.

Alfred didn't think at all that it was okay for him to lead the Templar team, and that letting him plan and wit was far from his forte.

"The most serious thing is that it's not the problem yet!" said Angus Gale. "After knowing this news, if Semehir is just for the sake of temptation, then maybe she is just out of curiosity, or maybe it is to prove her own superiority over others' IQ, it's nothing, if she stays honest next, then everything is fine, but she knows that the bishop is not there, and she still can't wait to run out, what does this mean?"

"What do you mean?" asked Andy and Alfred together.

It shows that she thinks this is an opportunity that can be used, so she is in a hurry to tell someone or an organization about the news, as for what the opportunity is, I think it is very likely that it is not good for us, but I hope I think too much. ”

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Alfrede's expression was serious, Luo Lan had said when he left that Andy was in charge of everything, and he would not talk about it.

"No!"

Andy said flatly: "Even if there is a chance, we have to be prepared. He bowed deeply to Angus Gale and said, "Thank you for the reminder from Brother Angus Gale, I will definitely tell you about this when my mentor returns." ”

"It's nothing," said Angus Gale with a wry smile, "I just don't want to die here for no reason." ”

"You could have chosen to leave. Andy looked at him.

Angus Gale just smiled and didn't speak.

If he leaves, then it's okay if nothing happens, in case something happens, it is that he clearly saw through this matter but didn't say anything to help the Holy See, although it seems nothing on the surface, but it is impossible for him to get the support of the Holy See in the future.

Not only that, but he also has to bear the wrath of Landiston's return.

The thought of the corner of the bishop's mouth with an inexplicable smile shuddered in his heart.

Does he have a choice?

......

Minnes City.

It was only a few dozen miles from Fort Worral, and Lady Semerhill, riding a war horse, had only run two hourglasses before entering the city.

After a few laps around the noisy city, she entered a luxurious aristocratic inn.

After showing a badge, she was ushered into a guest room by a waiter.

Here sits a man dressed in a priest's robe.

If Boris was here, he would have recognized this man as the priest who had encouraged him to kill Rolan.

"How's it going?" he saw Black Widow enter the room, and he couldn't wait to get to his feet.

Semerhill's slender eyebrows furrowed, and he said, "Do you just want to ask this when you see me?"

The priest was slightly stunned, then changed into a smile and stepped forward to wrap his arms around the elastic waist of the black widow. Lowered his voice and said, "Of course, I miss you." ”

Semerhill sighed lowly, and she gently broke free from the priest's embrace and sat down on the couch to the side.

The priest was not upset, but sat down across from her and asked again, "How's it going?"

The original warmth in Semerhill's eyes slowly converged, replaced it with her usual expression, and said slowly: "According to my speculation, Landiston is likely to be no longer in Worralburg at this time. ”

"What?" the priest stood up at once, and said with emotion, "Landiston is not in Worralburg, so where can he go? Doesn't he have a conflict with the mage? Does he turn a blind eye to the thirty-two mages surrounding the sky?

"I don't know where he's going, but ......" Semerhill seemed to organize his words, and after a pause, he said, "I thought that all the contradictions, this was probably a play between him and the mage." ”

"Why do you say that?" the priest actually roared, walking around the room, "what a chance, we can use the hands of the Mage Guild to kill this obnoxious fellow." ”

Semehir sighed secretly, this man was sometimes calm, but sometimes he was as violent as a bull, she remembered that he was not like this before, she couldn't help but think of the shocking wound on the other party's chest......

After a while, she came to her senses and said lightly: "Of course I am based on what I said. ”

"What is it?"

"Because I haven't seen him since yesterday, not only him, but not even the old-fashioned Boris knight, I went around the Volarburg three times, and I didn't find them, and I also got two suspicions, one is that in the style of Landiston, he actually didn't say anything about the siege of the Mage's Society, which is simply inconceivable, he came here to represent the Holy See to envoy the Mage Council, how could only thirty or so mages block his way, this is unthinkable. ”

"There is a second suspicion, except for sending some unpopular nobles to duel and harass them, there is no big action at all, and the mages floating in the sky don't know what to do, except for the symbolic wind during the day, they retreat back into the castle and fall asleep, not so much that they are here to find trouble, but that they are here to show some people. ”

"Maybe it's because they're jealous of each other? The pastor was a little irritable, and the opportunity he had been waiting for might be disappointed, which made him unacceptable after secretly rejoicing for a few days.

Semerhir smiled calmly and said, "Maybe there is a reason for this, but I have another reason. ”

"What reason?"

"My feelings. ”

Semerhil did not say anything about her temptation to test Alfred, because she wanted this man to know that she was irreplaceable, and she wanted to increase her position in this man's heart.

Feeling, if this feeling is proven to be not wrong after a few times, I'm afraid that anyone will be inseparable from it, and if they can't do without it, they can't do without themselves.

"Forget it. The priest sat back on the couch, picked up the red wine on the table, and said hatefully, "Let him escape again!"

"No, you're too pessimistic and disappointed," Lady Semehill's blue eyes looked at him, "and this is a good opportunity, and we may be able to use it to put Lantis in a desperate situation." ”

"What?" the priest sat up and asked excitedly, "What?"

Semerhill calmly took out a white gem from the spatial ring and gently placed it on the table.

"Transforming Gems?" the priest was stunned, this kind of gem was extremely rare on the mainland, but it was worth tens of thousands of gold, but he didn't know the Black Widow's intention in taking out this gem.

"Since Landiston is not in the castle, then you follow my carriage back to Worralburg, use this gem to change into the appearance of Landiston, and then provoke a conflict with the Mage Society, it is best to kill a few more mages, so that the situation becomes uncontrollable, and then we will calmly evacuate, although I don't know where Lantiston has gone at the moment, but from the current situation, as long as a few people know his whereabouts, that is to say, his subordinates may not know that he left. Then once it happens, even if he tries to justify it, it's useless, don't forget that this is the territory of the Mage Society, once the conflict between the two sides intensifies, then the time will come to solve this trouble in one fell swoop. ”

"It's a good idea, it's a good idea......" the priest repeated several times in his mouth, and then he suddenly stopped, stared at Semerhir, and said, "But it's all based on your assumptions. ”

Semerhill said lightly: "If you don't seize this opportunity, then when Landiston comes back, there will be no more chance." ”

Faced with this temptation, the pastor couldn't help but be moved.

If Landiston is really not there, and Boris is not there, then it means that there is no one who is a threat except for a few Templar captains, and with the cooperation of Semehir, plus the support of a few of his subordinates, it is indeed very likely to succeed if he controls it in one fell swoop, and then pretends to be Landiston.

After trying to breathe a few times, he slammed the glass in his hand to the ground and shouted, "That's it!"

Looking at the shards and scarlet wine all over the ground, a smile slowly opened the corners of Black Widow's mouth.

It's just that they didn't expect that in the room less than a few dozen meters away from them, there was another team of people who were now talking about the same topic.

"We're just the ones in charge of the answers, and we hope Captain Jean understands. Sitting in the room was the long-haired man who led the members of the Dark Council to attack the Thunder Bluff, who was gently wiping the wind strings in his hand at the moment, and said unhurriedly, "Killing Lantyston is no longer our main task. ”

Jean didn't speak, just stared at him.

The long-haired man smiled and said, "Are you trying to say that if we kill him, we can push this matter on the head of the Mage Society?"

"Do you still want to say that in this way, not only can we instigate the relationship between the Mage Council and the Holy See, but this team will no longer participate in the battle of the temple? We also indirectly helped the members of the team attacking the temple?"

Jean slowly raised her head, and Mime was puzzled, she didn't understand why she didn't agree with her approach since she had already seen her intentions?

"Hmph, that's because I'm not at ease, I'm a person who never takes unnecessary risks, and completing our current task is the most important thing, whether you say I'm rigid or timid, in short, I won't agree. ”

Jean turned and walked towards the door.

Just as she was about to walk out the door, the voice of the long-haired man came from behind her: "I have no right to stop you, but I have already said everything I have to say, and if you have to do this, I will pass the blame on the senators." ”

Jean paused, and pushed the door out without looking back.

"Woman, ......" The long-haired man gently plucked the stringed piano in his hand, and a string of pleasant notes rippled out, he slowly closed his eyes, and said to himself: "But don't give me any trouble, hey, it's still a real headache."
