Chapter 227: The Simon Family
Fortunately, there is no olecranon, and it is still basically a human face, except for those eyes and feathers in the corners.
Even so, it satisfied Philip's long-standing resentment towards that handsome face.
Naturally, the others also knelt on one knee, not daring to have the slightest disobedience towards this terrifying paladin.
It's terrible, they all know the strong man who is awakened at the third level, the Simon family's high-paid members of the guard group for Odeh, usually reigning as the king and hegemonic in the group of temple warriors, just like his master Ode.
But such a powerful character, under the hands of the Paladin, did not even make a move, was killed on the spot, and at this moment he had stopped struggling and passed out.
Although it was suspected of a sneak attack, both the hard armor and the developed muscles and bones of the Awakened were all severed with a single blow, and the entire cross-section was extremely smooth, which showed how sharp the blade-like feathers were, comparable to an epic weapon.
Leonardo put away his awakening state, but he couldn't change back into human form for a while, and he commanded sharply: "Everyone put down their weapons, tie their hands and wait for the investigation." β
As soon as his words fell, a heavy and dense sound of footsteps sounded, and an entire brigade of heavily armed armor soldiers drove in, quickly sealing off the scene and controlling the personnel.
"Can you still move?" Leonardo asked, as he approached Philip.
Philip smiled, his face a little shy, leaned over to Leonardo's side, and whispered, "I'm sorry for your trouble." β
It was this lazy and cunning appearance that the Philip in Leonardo's eyes immediately coincided with the sleek little fat man a few years ago.
"Even if I am negligent, you should remind me to go back and get a certificate for you, and I can bring no more than five guards in. β
Philip immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do they dare to retaliate?"
Leonardo smiled bitterly, looked at the dirty little face and said: "You really caused a big trouble this time, that Ode is nothing, but his grandfather Trist is a difficult old fellow, and there are many old protΓ©gΓ©s in this temple, even I used to have to look at his face." β
If the average person listened, it seemed that Leonardo was admonishing him, but Philip heard something else.
His good-looking blue eyes blinked, looked at the blood on the ground with a smile, and muttered in a low voice, "Who doesn't have a grandfather?"
Leonardo was stunned for a moment, then understood what Philip meant, and said with a smile: "Okay, Melissa must have heard about it at this time, and it gave her a headache."
You come with me and tell me what you just happened, it seems that you still have a lot of things to hide from me. β
When the two came to the apse, Leonardo's room was still a glass of water, and it could be seen that the life of this paladin was very hard and self-disciplined.
Philip looked at him with adoring eyes, and almost took out a notebook to sign it.
He silently assessed in his heart, with the speed shown by the other party at that time, it was far more than the six times the amplitude mentioned before, if it was himself, he would definitely be killed on the spot, and there would be no chance of fighting back.
Leonardo ignored his gaze and asked coldly, "Name, age, how did you get into the conflict?"
Looking at the other party's meticulous attitude, Philip could only retell what happened, thanks to his good brain, almost all the conversations and actions were described completely, not a word was bad.
It wasn't until Philip finished telling that Leonardo signed the record in his hand, instructing people not to know where to send it.
Philip pulled out his cigarette and handed it to the Paladin, for the previous fight was a little deformed and crumpled.
But Leonardo didn't dislike it, and glanced at the mark on the cigarette handle before putting it in his mouth with satisfaction.
Philip dogged him and smoked one himself, and until now, his hands were shaking.
The sequelae of using up all his strength at once is too great, and if it weren't for the enemy's strength being too strong, he wouldn't be so desperate.
But next time he will definitely not do this, the damage caused by using half of his strength will not be much different from now, after all, it is just an arm, it seems that the anger of the previous humiliation still affects his sanity.
Leonardo also noticed, and he naturally didn't think that Philip was afraid, but looked at the handsome young man in front of him with interest and spoke first.
Philip was not polite and asked directly, "Why?"
Leonardo kneaded the body of the cigarette to make the tobacco insides even, and explained, "Your escort place at Southern Theological Seminary is occupied by Odd's own brother.
There are no more than two people in the entire city of Gokan who are qualified to escort them, but except for Melissa, the other one is definitely not Old Trist. β
Philip exhaled a cloudy breath, finally feeling a little refreshed, and said, "I know, the other person is you."
I'm only going to Frogon in two years, so why do I occupy this year's quota?"
"Maybe next year, or maybe the year after, Melissa will definitely leave, and this year may be her last year in Gokan City, which is why she has done things about you in such a hurry. β
"Elevated?" Philip narrowed his eyes, obviously skeptical of the claim.
Leonardo didn't explain anything more, just nodded.
"That's not right, as long as he waits for the new bishop, no matter who takes office, he will always sell this snake a face. β
"Hehe, in the end, it's a different background, your brain spins fast.
Unfortunately, the elder Trist was also a full 110 years old, older than the age of the Emperor, and according to his rank, he should have rotated in different cities a long time ago.
It's just that he used some excuses to delay, and he has been living in this city for almost twenty years.
When Melissa leaves office next year, she will take him to the Southern Temple with her, which can be regarded as a half-level promotion. β
"Oh, it's not bad to be raised, at least a good death. β
Philip nodded, although Leonardo didn't say anything, but Philip's head was running at high speed, and he quickly figured out a lot of the tricks.
What is the reason why Old Trist has been operating in this city for so long, naturally he is the boss of this temple, the position of the number one.
Thinking about Melissa's unexpected airborne landing back then, his dreams were shattered, and these years may be harmonious on the surface, but the intrigue and intrigue in the secret believe that there will be no less, maybe enough to write a book.
Old Trist's defeat must have meant that someone in the upper echelons of the Southern Temple was already dissatisfied with him.
As the descendant of the Southern Temple, how could Melissa easily let go of this old fox, it was not bad to suppress it without completely tearing his face, or it was just selling the power behind him to save face.
Looking at that Aode's style, there must have been a lot of bullying men and women over the years, and the anger of people and gods may not be enough, but it was definitely raised in the arrogance of that old Triste.
It was evident from the fact that he called Melissa by name as soon as he entered the door.
Unfortunately, the Odd was a decade older than him, and he didn't grow up together, otherwise Philip believed that his boyhood would have been more fun.
Melissa wouldn't have been unaware that they might have vented their anger on themselves, but they didn't say anything, could there be something wrong with that?
If the Snape family were involved, what would Melissa think?
What kind of filthiness did this paladin lord in front of him have with the Simon family back then, and to what extent would he go?
How strong is the power behind the Simon family?
A series of questions flickered and jumped in Philip's mind like sparks, until the fireworks burned to the end, and a burning pain came from his hand, which woke him up.
Although Philip doesn't have much of a smug aura on his body, he generally doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, but he is not afraid of it.
Just kidding, if he was in the Southern Temple or the Imperial Capital, he might have restrained a little, but this is Gaokan City, and the old Brad is in charge of tens of thousands of fierce soldiers, and it is a real joke that he can be bullied at his own doorstep.
Since he has already been provoked, how to use this opportunity to beat the other party to death with a stick is what he wants to do the most.
Leonardo didn't bother him, looking at the vicious look on that little face, he couldn't help but have an idea, and this idea became clearer and clearer in his mind, and the more he looked at Philip, the more pleasing it became.
The temple is independent, but not isolated, and its existence is bound to be linked to various forces, especially the local aristocracy.
Philip in front of him is a link that connects them, and if Melissa can do it, why can't he.
Although he and Melissa belong to different systems, they are not distinct, and are technically different branches within the same faction.
He cleared his throat and said to Philip: "This time the temple will inevitably conduct an internal investigation, if nothing else, I will be the general director, and finally Melissa will form a written report to the inquisition of the Southern Temple, after all, the matter involves a brave knight who is officially registered." β
Philip knew that the Valiant Knight was at the lowest rank of the entire Templar Knight, and lower than it was the Trainee Knight, for example, the first rank he received after he officially passed the examination in the future was the Trainee Knight.
Above are the Knights of the Title, the Paladin, and the tallest is the Holy Knights, which are the spires of the entire Pyramid of Templars.
There are also a number of small ranks between each rank, just as the old Trist and Melissa, although they are both bishops, have a world of difference in internal ranks.
He naturally understood the meaning of Leonardo's words, so he solemnly saluted the other party, and said with one hand on his chest: "Teacher......"
I don't know what Philip and Leonardo said, but the gossip spread wildly in the city that night.
Many people claim to have seen the furious Lion Brad with a full 3,000 Knights of the Guards surround the temple of the city of Gokan in the Grand Place of Glory, and formed a confrontation with the Knights of the Templar, because his youngest grandson, Philip, who is also the pride of the entire city of Gocan, was accidentally killed in the temple and was seriously injured.
