As the evening afterglow faded, the curfew-imposed city of Navia quickly fell silent. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Only patrolling city guards remained in the streets.

Unlike in the past, today's city guards are armed with weapons in hand, and their eyes widen for suspicious figures in the corners and shadows.

The assassination of the priest of the Temple of Thorns in the afternoon bazaar had alarmed the upper echelons of Navia, and the big men had given orders to catch the killer within a week.

But the commander of the city guard had no clues.

In the end, this commander could only put the high pressure from the top on his subordinates.

As for the final result?

That's really something that only God knows.

"Dellink is a wine bag and rice bag, if it weren't for the contribution to the 'Thunder Temple', how could he become the commander of the city guards."

At the mention of the Archon, Edrina was full of disdain.

However, when facing those city guards, Etrina was careful enough.

After taking Qin Ran and Mimosa along the path outside the 'Accumulation Stables' shop, bypassing four sentry posts and three patrols, they entered the dock area of Navia City.

After passing through the warehouses, Qin Ran's eyes suddenly opened up, six straight bridges leading to the sea, and large sailing ships undulating in the waves.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

The sound of the waves came clearly into the ears, and the oncoming sea breeze had a special taste.

"It's just ahead!"

"I hid the 'Holy Grail of Thorns' in the sea under a bridge - only the monster breath of the sea can hide the priests' perception!"

Edrina whispered.

Qin Ran nodded noncommittally.

Qin Ran, who had read "A Discourse on the Development of the Temple of Navia City", knew very well that although there were twenty-five temples in Navia City, except for the supreme temple being 'Thunder', there were no powerful gods such as the sun, moon, day, night, ocean, and so on in people's common sense.

On the contrary, in the ocean here, there are all kinds of terrifying monsters.

Every year, the 'Great Sea Festival' is needed to appease the monsters and keep the routes open.

Moreover, most of the indigenous people here believe that the sea water is magical.

Of course, it's a bad one.

In addition to this, there are customs such as not going near the sea at night.

However, it was precisely because of such a custom that Qin Ran and his entourage's next actions became much easier.

Most of the city guards patrolled the vicinity of the warehouses, and none of them were near the coast.

And the only sentry on the six bridges is also useless.

Mimosa, who was following behind Qin Ran, looked at the empty sentry with torches, and couldn't help but be curious.

"A year and a half ago, after the last Night's Watch disappeared inside, no one dared to serve there."

"Including the night watchman, in less than half a year, ten people have disappeared, and even the priests of the 'Temple of Sins' have nothing to do about it."

Edrina explained in a low voice.

It's just that from beginning to end, his eyes were not looking at the mimosa, but at Qin Ran.

Obviously, such an explanation was for Qin Ran.

As for mimosa?

In the eyes of the haughty temple deacon, Mimosa is a timid servant who is good for nothing but cooking.

"Your Excellency, you shouldn't have brought your servant with you."

"He's not of any use."

Aterina said as she walked.

Such remarks made Mimosa tremble, and subconsciously grabbed Qin Ran's cloak, he was very worried that Qin Ran would abandon him.

"It's enough to have cooking skills."

Qin Ran replied half-truthfully.

When he found out that Etrina was just a pawn, and he didn't know why the people behind the scenes wanted to find a 'merchant' to attack, it would be really unwise for Qin Ran to dare to leave Mimosa alone in the hotel.

Etrina was able to find the inside of the inn.

Why can't that guy?

Even, the other party has already shot.

Qin Ran's gaze swept over the surrounding shadows without a trace, and after glancing at the bridge in the distance, his footsteps moved slightly, completely blocking the mimosa behind him.

Aterina didn't notice Qin Ran's movements.

But that doesn't mean Edrina didn't notice anything unusual.

As she got closer to the bridge, after experiencing a baptism, Aterina, who was already different from ordinary people, stopped vigilantly, and motioned for Qin to retreat.

But at the moment Etrina stopped, seven or eight figures jumped out of the shadows behind them, each holding a sword and a sword, with a fierce look in their eyes.

And in the direction of the bridge, two men dressed as mercenaries in leather armor walked out.

One is holding two swords in his hand, his body is athletic, and his face is sarcastic, and the long swords in his left and right hands bring up pieces of cold light between the rotation of the opponent's wrists.

A bare-handed person, but he is taller than ordinary people, and the scar on his face makes people gasp when they look at it.

"'Twin Swords' Cilic!"

"'Beast' Adson!"

When she could see the two men clearly through the faint moonlight, Etrina exclaimed.

Finished!

At the sight of these two men appearing, the temple deacon's heart was filled with despair.

Both were well-known figures in the city of Navia.

Not only in the mercenary room, but also in the temple.

Because, after the two of them intercepted and killed a priest of the 'Temple of Fortune' a year ago, they caused a sensation in the city of Navia.

All were shocked by the audacity of the two.

In the subsequent pursuit, the two performed even more extraordinarily, evading the pursuit of the Temple of Sin three times and fleeing straight to the Northland.

Edrina didn't know why the two had sneaked back to Navia City at this time.

Or maybe the two of them didn't leave Navia City at all, but just hid somewhere.

But none of this matters.

Most importantly, she had to find a way.

Otherwise, you will really die here!

"Ugh."

Just as Atelina turned her brain to think about how to survive, a sigh suddenly came.

It's Qin Ran.

Qin Ran sighed and shook his head.

"More cautious than expected."

Qin Ran said this.

Then, he walked straight towards the opposite 'Twin Swords' Cilic 'Beast' Adson.

"Wait, they're ......"

Atelina opened her mouth to stop.

However, the words of the temple deacon came to an abrupt end.

Cilic, who claimed to be able to catch up with the speed of the wind with the double swords, had just swung the double swords, and the wrists of his hands holding the swords were crushed by Qin Ran.

Ignoring the blade slash, Adelson, who was pierced by the arrow, was torn off by Qin Ran.

Everything happens in an instant.

The temple deacon didn't even see the whole process clearly.

What she sees is already the result.

The temple deacon was dumbfounded, and his mind was stiff.

It wasn't until the sound of sharp metal cutting flesh and blood came from behind her that the temple deacon seemed to be awakened, and when she subconsciously turned around, she saw a scene that she would never forget.

A long, sturdy, narrow sword weaves back and forth between the shadows and the human body.

Every time you shuttle, one person falls to the ground.

Every time you go through, you will hear the wail of the soul.

The long, narrow sword was like the scythe of death, harvesting prey after prey.

The people who were surrounding them all fell to the ground and died in a few breaths.

And the long and narrow sword brought a burst of joy, and the milk swallow flew to Qin Ran's side like a homecoming.

In the night wind, in the moonlight.

The sword and crow's feather cloak danced in the wind.

The sword light flickered.

Hunting sounds.
