Volume 13 Seals! A sigh from the Gate of the Abyss! Chapter 5: Robbery and Murder (I)
"You're failing again?" said Charlemagne, surging from his seat. [Full text reading.] glared at a few men in black. He took a few steps back and forth. "The time given by Lord Angus Gale is getting closer and closer. Can't you just let me have some snacks?"
The leader of the men in black said ashamedly, "Originally, we had already caught that young man. But Black Widow suddenly took him away. This is something we simply could not have predicted. ”
"Black Widow......" Charlemagne scratched at the scar on his cheek. Hey. said to herself: "She actually came to join in the fun." Did she get any news?"
"Probably not. The sentry we left there. She took the boy and finally entered the temple. It's likely that this black widow has a nosy problem. But at that time, it was too far away. Our people can't hear what they're saying. I only found that they seemed to be going to see some big man in the Holy See. ”
"Big shot?" Charlemagne scratched his head. He glared at a few people fiercely and said, "The one who Black Widow is willing to take the initiative to meet." This person's status is certainly not low. But. Sooner or later, they will have to come out. He grabbed the large wooden wine glass on the table. Goo poured down. Wipe off the beard with wine residue and foam. He snorted. "Then use the old way." Grab it back!"
"Clash with the Holy See?" the man in black shuddered. Hesitantly: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate......
"What's not to do. Charlemagne glared. "As long as you're not stupid." Don't let them see where you're from. Isn't it going to be fine?" But ......"
"Nothing. So be it. Charlemagne waved his hand resolutely. His voice was a little cold.
The man in black shuddered. He was silent for a moment. Finally stand up straight. Clenched the hilt of the sword and said, "President." My family. I'll leave it to you. ”
Charlemagne didn't look at the man. He poured another glass of wine. When you put it to your mouth. Cai said: "They will all get what you deserve." ”
The man in black stopped talking. He bowed. Then walk out of the station. With a wave of his hand. Several men in black leaned in. He said in a deep voice, "Gather all the men you can mobilize to ambush outside the temple. Black Widow moves as soon as she comes out. Remember. Be careful. If the Templar swordsmen discover your whereabouts. You guys. Know what to do. ”
Priest Evelyn sat in the carriage. She made her daily rounds of the surrounding churches and shrines. Collection of tributes.
These offices are only pious and upright. Only those who are faithful and trustworthy can hold the clergy. But such people are loyal to their duties. But there is often little enthusiasm for this type of work. \\Because the riches of the world do not tempt them much.
However, Priest Evelyn was in high spirits at this time. She was holding a little girl's hand. The little girl inexplicably bumped into the priest's guard who was out on patrol in the square. Originally, she didn't really care. In the temple square, there are many worshippers who come from afar in the hope of touching the high priests. In vain, he tried to get a little bit of the relics of the gods. But Evelyn was helpless about this. I didn't even feel the heavenly language in the dark. And how can we share with the people?
Maybe. Perhaps only a pious man like the Bishop of Landiston and the Pope could have come to the mercy of Heaven?
Come to think of it. Evelyn looked back at her. was originally an ordinary thing, but because of this little girl, it felt extraordinary. It made her feel that there might really be such a thing as a miracle in the world.
The little girl is not very old. Ignorant of the world. Innocent. But the incomparably sharp perception of the bright circle element on his body is simply a miracle created by God. For a clergyman. It's like a pearl exposed in the sand. Shine brightly. And dazzling.
She caressed the little girl's head lovingly. There are both sighs. There are also attempts to feel a little revelation of the gods. Such a child. It should be handed over to the Pope. Presumably, she would also be happy to become a priest who has dedicated her life to the gods.
Although her thoughts are not wrong. But if it is known by the knights of Alfre. Will definitely try to correct this idea. Since returning from following the Bishop of Landiston to conquer Shaloman. They were all deeply branded with Bethlehem. Even if the Bishop of Landiston returned to the diocese. They are not reused in the Holy See. There is no better option than to keep following. Curry favor with the Pope. It's better to curry favor with Bishop Lantiston.
But at this moment Alfrete was standing in the square of the temple with the boy. It was destined that Evelyn would not be able to give this advice.
"Are you sure you're separated in the square?"
"Yes. I saw one enter the queue of a group of clergy. Because they should have taken her away. The boy looked at the square impatiently. said: "It's all my fault." I shouldn't have left her alone. ”
Alfrete looked left and right. He groaned, "If it's a priest who went out of the temple. and a convoy. It should be a priest or a sacrifice. They have no dwelling outside the temple. Therefore, they should return by sunset at the latest. We'll be patient here and you'll be fine. ”
The boy's heart was slightly relieved. He looked at the sky. It's past noon. The rocks on the roofs of the houses shone with white flowers. People who walk with their heads down are all lazy and slow. Except for a few pigeons pecking at the food. The surroundings are peaceful.
Suddenly. A few pigeons fluttered their wings in fright. An uncommon black wind eagle circled the blue sky. There was a long howl above the cross at the top of the temple.
The boy took a few looks. I heard footsteps coming from behind. He looked back. only to find out that it was Mrs. Semerhill who came out. He caught a glimpse of those dreamy blue eyes. Some obsessively watched. It wasn't until the other party walked to the other side that he came to his senses......
"This gentleman. Thank you for your help today. We should have a chance to meet again. Mrs. Semerhill said with a smile. The boy stared into those eyes. I was in a trance at the bottom of my heart. I don't know if I heard it clearly. Uh-huh, ahhh The horseman who provoked Lady Semerhill gave him a cold look.
The boy suddenly felt someone tap him on the shoulder. Looking up, I met Alfre's smiling gaze. Only then did he realize that the black widow had gone away. His face suddenly turned a little red.
Alfrete sighed. "He didn't even ask your name." Just pure politeness. Don't be cranky. Otherwise it is you who will be tormented. ”
"It's not. I'm not ......," the boy quickly denied.
"Nothing to be embarrassed about. Alfrete smiled. He pointed to the young man's heart and said, "Do you know why she is disdainful of you? This is indeed the case. That's because of who you are. A small mercenary. It's not worth mentioning to her. ”
The boy was like being poured a basin of cold water on his head. The heat in my heart suddenly faded.
It's like a precious dream woven out of it is suddenly shattered. Although this is true. But he hated Kialfret a little. His eyes were full of confusion. Power, status, money, none of these things. This makes my heart full of inferiority complex and unwillingness. Just as his chest was churning. Alfrete suddenly sensed something. He suddenly shouted, "Stop. ”
A dozen men in black who were walking slowly in the square suddenly sped up. Their robes-covered bodies could clearly see the sword being drawn.
Mrs. Semerhill's queue is at the front. The middle-aged knight who was accompanying him also noticed the abnormality on the other side. But at this moment, many knights, guards, and horses were still outside the temple square. It's too late to get over. He immediately drew his sword and shouted. "Protect Madame!"
A series of sounds of swords drawn and unsheathed were continuous. There are not only other people's. There were also some Templar swordsmen who came around. However, the men in black seemed to be unaware of the guards. Their eyes were fixed on the boy. The pace under your feet is getting faster and faster.
Mrs. Semerhill, who was separated between the two, was slightly pale. The strength of these people is not very strong. But the death will and momentum emanating from his body were full of indomitable cruel killing intent.
The man in black who rushed to the front raised his sword and slashed at the middle-aged knight who was blocking the front. The latter calmly flipped his wrist. did not parry, but also slashed at the throat of the other party. Behind him was Lady Semerhill. So he can't hide. Just want to be able to force the other party back. But he underestimated the determination of these people. The man in black slashed down with his sword, which remained unchanged. Ignore the sword that slashed at him.
The middle-aged knight's face changed. At this time, it was too late to parry. He snorted. The speed in the hand picked up again. In order to kill this enemy first.
"Poof!"
The head of the man in black was cut off with a crisp and neat cut. But his slashing sword also cut a deep bloody wound in the middle-aged knight's shoulder. Again, this is the result of the latter's efforts to dodge. Otherwise, it's the same fate.
Looking at the dozen or so men in black who rushed up around them. Mrs. Semerhill took a step back. She sensed danger. But you can see that the other party's goal is not yourself. It's just that I happen to be in an awkward position. She sighed. Some reluctantly fiddled with the ring in his hand with his fingers. Then a silver light flashed like a flying star.
on the square. She and the middle-aged knight had vanished without a trace.
The men in black only paused. He immediately rushed to the top of the temple. Footsteps crashed down the white stone steps.
"Starry Sky Teleportation Ring?" Alfrete was stunned. Secretly smiled bitterly. I'm afraid only Black Widow would have such luxury. Use this kind of item enough to exchange for a city. Then he looked ahead. Sneered. Just these few people want to storm the Temple of Light?
He waved his hand forward. In a deep voice, "Guard!"
With his gestures. The sound of steel boots hitting stone slabs sounded like a tidal wave. Countless Templar swordsmen poured out of the temple porch. The brilliance of the sword almost connected in front of the cross and the statue of the god of light.
Looking at this lonely dozen swords. A sneer escaped the corners of Alfre's mouth.
But he didn't notice. At the moment, on top of a bell tower opposite. A burly one. The man in the golden mask was staring at the boy standing next to him with a strange gaze.
