Chapter 427: Mission
Because they were in a hurry, Karene and Aisha and their party simply packed their luggage and flew to the Rhine Holy Kingdom on the giant eagle again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As for the things that the envoys were supposed to carry, Karen said that the elders of the Stanfield family would send someone to send them after making all kinds of preparations.
Aisha felt quite envious of this: for the Testrosa family, which only has two or three kittens, the lack of manpower has always been a big problem that plagues every generation of family heads. Not to mention sending someone to help, sometimes even an ordinary communication with other families has to be carried out by the head of the family himself.
Just thinking about it is a handful of bitter tears......
Although as two of the three powers, the relationship between the Rhine Kingdom and the United Kingdom of Malte has not always been good. However, after the strong rise of the Mantes Empire, the exchanges between the Rhine Kingdom and the United Kingdom of Malthes, which felt threatened, gradually increased.
As soon as there are many such exchanges, from time to time there will be some tourists who are curious about neighboring countries and want to visit neighboring countries.
Therefore, the guards in charge of registering on the border did not make any obstacles when they saw Aisha and his group wanting to enter the Rhine Holy Kingdom.
However, when she noticed that most of Aisha's group were young and beautiful girls, a few relatively young guards would sneak a few glances at them from time to time, and the registration speed was also slow.
Of course, there are only a few documents, and no amount of delay will slow down for long. So within a few minutes, Aisha and the others flew into the air again under the watchful eyes of these guards.
ββ¦β¦ Are all Malte's girls so beautiful? β
Until the figure of the giant eagle completely disappeared, there were still a few young guards looking at the sky stupidly.
"Okay, okay, cheer me up!"
The older guard leader shook his head helplessly: "Marte's girls may be very beautiful, but our Rhine girls are not bad either!" So, you all take care of me! Did you hear me? β
After coming back to his senses, a young guard asked the leader of the guard with a curious expression: "Boss, I heard that you have been to the United Kingdom of Malte before, are there really many and beautiful girls there?" β
The other guards in the vicinity quietly pricked up their ears when they heard the question.
After rolling his eyes, the leader of the guards said angrily, "If you want to go to Malte to see, cheer me up!" As long as you do a good job, you will have a chance to visit Malte in the future! β
Under the scolding of the leader of the guards, the young guards all honestly returned to their positions. But when he got busy, the young guard who asked the leader of the guard always looked in the direction of the United Kingdom of Malte with a bit of longing from time to time.
No one knows that now he is just a small border guard, but in the future he is a big adventurer Mario, and it is because of such a trivial encounter today that he has the idea of going on his first adventure.
Unbeknownst to him, Aisha and his party had the idea of going out on an adventure because they had run into one of them, and after spending four full days, they finally landed outside a big city in a giant eagle.
This city is the most famous city in the Holy Kingdom of the Rhine, the pure white city - the city of Santa Utopia.
The reason why this city is called the White City is not only because all the buildings in the city, including the streets, are made of white stone, but also because the city has the lowest crime rate on the entire continent!
So far, the city of Santa Utopia has not had a single homicide for hundreds of years. Therefore, the city of Santa Utopia is also known by many as the "city of innocence".
"Sister Karen, since we are going to sign a covenant with the upper echelons of the church, shouldn't we go directly to that holy capital? Why stop here? β
Walking down the streets of the city of Sonic Utopia, Aisha, who was looking around, asked a little puzzled.
"Because we can't."
Karen, who was reading a letter, frowned and replied, "The Holy Capital is not so easy to enter, and those who want to enter the Holy Capital can only go to the Holy Capital if they have obtained the permission of a certain bishop here. β
As the headquarters of the Holy White Church, the entrance and exit control of the Holy Capital is quite strict. Those who want to enter the Holy Capital can only enter it smoothly after going through many checks and obtaining permission from certain people.
Of course, as the emissary of the United Kingdom of Malte, Karin and the others certainly don't need to be so troublesome. However, if they wanted to enter the Holy Capital, they had to obtain the permission of a bishop as well.
ββ¦β¦ Let's find an inn to stay in, and then we'll find someone to help introduce the bishops. β
After writing down the names of the people on the letter, a flame rose in Karen's hand and burned the letter.
Of course, Aisha and the others have no opinion on Kalian's decision. After running on the road for so long, Dio is fine, Aisha and Teresa have long felt a little uncomfortable.
After some casually found a high-end hotel near the main road to stay, after some freshening up and dressing, the rejuvenated Karian and the others began to move around the city while the sun had not yet set.
ββ¦β¦ No. 62, Pine Street, Xicheng District. β
After checking the note in his hand, looking at the inconspicuous house in front of him, Kalian said in a low voice: "It seems that this should be the place." β
However, just as Karen was about to knock on the door, she was stopped by Dio.
Ignoring the confusion on Kalian's face, Dio pulled her behind him and knocked on the door.
"Boom! Knock knock! β
After noticing Dio's expression, Aisha and Karen subconsciously became vigilant. However, just when everyone was waiting, the door slowly opened.
"Uh...... Who are you looking for? β
A young man with a little sleepiness on his face looked out the door and asked with some puzzlement.
After looking at him for a moment, Dio silently stepped out of the way, revealing Karen behind him.
"Head of ......"
His eyes widened instantly, and the young man, who was very surprised, hurriedly opened the door and invited Dio and the others to enter.
As for that hint of sleepiness, I was scared away the moment I saw Kalian.
After respectfully inviting Karin and the others to enter, the young man quickly closed the door, and then asked with a respectful face, "I didn't know that the head of the family was here...... What do I need to do? β
After finding a place to sit down, Karene asked seriously, "What's your name?" β
"Jimmy! Jimmy Marco! β
The young man hurriedly said his name.
"Jimmy, isn't it, what about William who used to live here?"
After frowning, Karen asked.
"Grandpa William, he passed away at the end of last year."
A flash of sadness flashed in Jimmy's eyes, but he replied quickly.
"Dead? Did he die a normal death? β
Karen asked very seriously, her eyes fixed on Jimmy.
"Well, on the night of the first snowfall, Grandpa William went away peacefully."
After a sigh, Jimmy lowered his head a little lonely.
Although he is not related to Old William, Jimmy, who has been taken care of by Old William to live to this day, has long regarded Old William as his real grandfather.
However, just as Jimmy was caught up in his memories, Karene noticed something unusual.
Jimmy, who came back to his senses from his memories, quickly noticed what Karen was concerned aboutβthe silver cross that hung from his chest.
"Uh, this is ......"
Scratching his head, Jimmy smiled wryly and explained, "Actually, I am indeed a believer in my lord. Trust me, though! No matter what time it is, I will definitely take the orders of the family first! β
After glancing at Jimmy, Karen smiled and said, "You don't need to be so nervous, in fact, there are many people in my family who believe in the Lord of Light. β
Although they are from a family of magicians, not everyone in the Stanfield family has a good talent for magic. And those who have no magical talent, some will choose to become magic craftsmen, some will choose to become alchemists, and so on. Although the people who would choose to become priests are only a few, they are not uncommon.
ββ¦β¦ That's right. β
Jimmy, who had heard of this for the first time, opened his mouth in surprise, but was also visibly relieved.
Dio, who had been paying attention to his every move, did not let down his vigilance until this time.
(Judging by the boy's performance, he shouldn't be a spy sent by other forces.) οΌ
Thinking so, Dio turned his head to look out the window.
In fact, as he approached the area, Dio noticed that something was not right in the atmosphere. By the time Dio followed Karen to Jimmy's door, he raised his vigilance to the highest level.
Because Dio found that there seemed to be a lot of people staring at this place in the shadows.
After all, it was a newcomer, and Dio didn't know what those people were for. Now, however, there is a person in front of him who probably knows some clues.
ββ¦β¦ Has anything strange happened here lately? β
Seeing that Karene and Jimmy hadn't gotten into the business for a long time, Dio couldn't help but interject and ask.
"Uh...... Who are you? β
Jimmy glanced at Dio in confusion, and then at Karen, looking a little overwhelmed.
"You'd better answer Dior's question first."
Karen, who has not yet fully trusted Jimmy, said casually.
Dio ...... Under the crown?
Jimmy's heart was shocked, and then he hurriedly answered Dio's question honestly: "As far as I know, nothing big seems to have happened recently. β
"Is that so......"
A little disappointment flashed in Dio's eyes.
However, just as Dio was about to look for clues on his own, Jimmy added: "However, the atmosphere has been a little different lately! During these days, I often run into one or two Knights Templar on the road! β
"Templar ......"
Dio raised an eyebrow, then turned his head to look behind him: "Eve, what do you think?" β
Dio's shadow moved, and then Eve, dressed as a maid, emerged from inside.
Ignoring Jimmy's wide-eyed eyes, Eve replied, "Some of those staring at this place are indeed Knights Templars. But I'm not sure where the rest of them came from. β
After hearing Eve's words, everyone turned to look at Jimmy.
"Tell me, what bad things have you done lately?"
Karen asked with some curiosity.
"No, no, no! I didn't do anything bad! β
Jimmy replied without tears: "And after noticing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, I hid at home and slept every day, and never went out at all!" β
After listening to Jimmy's explanation, everyone's faces looked a little helpless.
If something really happened around here, it would seem even more suspicious to stay at home like Jimmy all the time, right?
"Forget it, none of this matters."
After shaking her head, Karen said very seriously, "Do you know where Bishop Gleni lives?" Take us to meet him first. β
"Bishop Glenny? I know that. β
Although he was a little reluctant, Jimmy honestly left his house with Karen and the others.
With Dio's prompt, this time, Karin and the others noticed that someone was staring at them.
Of course, this also had to do with the fact that the Templars did not hide their whereabouts much.
"Looks like something big has happened in this city of innocence."
Looking at the vigilant Templars, Karen said helplessly.
Fortunately, although the Templars had been keeping an eye on Karen and the others, they did not intervene to stop them. So, under the guidance of Jimmy, Karen and the others soon came to the place where the Bishop Gleni lived.
"This is it!"
After pointing to the ordinary-looking mansion, Jimmy smiled and said to Karen and the others, "Bishop Glenny is a very good man, he often treats the civilians who live nearby for free!" β
As he spoke, Jimmy was about to knock on the door.
However, his hand was immediately grabbed by Dio.
ββ¦β¦ It smelled of blood. β
Ignoring Jimmy, who looked puzzled, Dio said to Karene and the others very solemnly.
The faces of Karine and the others suddenly changed.
Is this a coincidence, or is it ......
Without waiting for the frowning Karin and the others to ask, Dio beckoned directly to one of the Templars standing on the street.
It wasn't until the Templar, who was still a little puzzled and wary on his face, came over that Dio pointed to the house and said calmly, "Something happened inside." β
The Templar was stunned for a moment, then immediately slammed open the door and entered the room.
