Hearing Beta's answer, Prince Bowens was a little surprised.

He had no idea that his invitation would be denied. However, he is also a calm person, and his mind turned in circles at the moment, and then said: "I am a prince, do you think that there is no future with me?" ”

Beta smiled, "Of course there is a future, but Your Royal Highness, you have to understand something. You're a man, and Archbishop Selia is a woman, and she's a big beauty. I'm a young man, if it were you, what would you think? ”

Prince Bowens scratched his head. Mercenaries, generally for money, for power, are willing to condescend to the nobles, willing to do things for the nobles.

But this man is for the sake of beauty...... It has to be said that it is a fairly reasonable reason.

Besides, he took the time to go to the slum two days ago to meet Selia, and he had to admit that Selia was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen. It's prettier than his sister, who claims to be the flower of the empire.

Even he was faintly moved, let alone a mercenary.

After a short silence, Prince Bowens smiled heartily: "I'm just giving an opinion, Your Excellency, you have a very good talent. But if this talent is to continue to grow, it will definitely need a lot of resources. These resources, Archbishop Selia can't give you, but I can. ”

Beta looked up and said, "But I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince is not in a good situation right now. ”

"It's not good." Prince Bowens took the initiative to add some fruit wine to Beta's cup, and poured wine for a mercenary in his capacity, which was already a broken knot: "But no matter what, the forces behind me, the energy I have, are much stronger than Archbishop Celia." ”

This is also true, no matter how you look at it, Prince Bowens is not the kind of fool who does nothing. Although he is still young, he must have started to run his own power a few years ago, maybe even more than ten years ago, coupled with the complicated interpersonal relationships of the royal family, his background is indeed much stronger than Selia.

But now Monica's strength, they only see the surface.

If Monica can put down the shelves and go back to ask Sasha, she will definitely get a lot of support.

The country of France is also the first power of mankind, and it is much stronger than Longer Cange in terms of human and material resources.

Besides, Bowens is still a lost prince.

In addition, Beta is also a 'connection' line of Monica, no matter what, Monica is Sasha's sister, and he is willing to help Monica when he and Monica have no interests, or when there is a conflict of right and wrong.

So, Beta doesn't think Monica is worse than Bowens, on the contrary, better than him.

Of course, Beta wouldn't say these things, he pretended to be silent for a while, and then said, "Let me think about it." ”

"Okay." Prince Bowens felt a little happy that the other party did not reject him completely, and whether this thing worked out or not, he had a step to go down.

The glasses of both sides clashed, and after drinking, Beta left the study.

As usual, he patrolled the manor for a few hours with his team, and then arranged for tomorrow and left the manor.

Just as he had left, the prince called the three members of the group into his study.

Although these three people are also mercenaries, their strength is average, and they are a little apprehensive when they see the prince, and they seem very nervous.

Bowens invited them to sit down, then asked, "What do you think of your captain, Li Lin?" ”

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, they immediately thought that they were going to be invited out of the manor's patrol.

Bowens was paid a lot of money, and they cherished the job.

"The captain is a very nice person and very decent."

"The captain has a lot of common sense."

"The captain has an aristocratic temperament in him."

The three of them told their impressions of Beta in a word, and after about half an hour, the three left the study.

Prince Bowens, on the other hand, sat in his study, deep in thought.

After asking the trio what they thought, Bowens finally discovered what he had been overlooking.

Li Lin is too humble and not arrogant.

At such a young age, he is close to the strength of the legendary level, and it stands to reason that a person should be high-spirited, but this Li Lin has always behaved quite calmly and calmly.

Although the other party was a mercenary, Bowens found that the other party did not have any mercenary rudeness, and indeed as those team members said, he had an aristocratic elegance.

On top of that, Prince Bowens found that Li Lin did know a lot. He thought carefully about the conversation he had with Beta not long ago, and although the other party was not very talkative, as long as he spoke, he could always say something.

This kind of insight is not what a young mercenary should have.

"What is the origin of this person?" Bowens was a little curious.

And he now vaguely feels that most of his solicitation is going to fail.

Such people are not something that can be recruited at random.

So what is the identity of Archbishop Celia, whom he is willing to serve?

Bowens felt a headache. There are so many forces in the Holy City of Life, and the relationship between them is already complicated enough, and now a new force has jumped out?

At this time, Beta returned to the Northshire Monastery, and as soon as he entered the door, he smelled a faint smell of blood.

The two young guards at the door looked sad.

What happened?

Beta didn't ask the guards, but went straight into the temple, where he saw a crowd of people gathered in the center of the prayer hall.

Monica, dressed in a pale green bishop's robe, was quite noticeable in the crowd.

Beta walked over, and when the bystanders saw him coming, they took the initiative to get out of the way.

Beta then noticed three young men lying in the middle of the crowd. They are all dead, and their faces still retain the faces that were distorted by the pain they had been before their lives.

A large hole had been made in their left chest, and the heart was missing, only a red hole was exposed.

The people around him all showed sad and even angry looks.

"You're back!" Monica walked over to Beta.

"What's going on?"

"At noon, five young people from our temple went out to buy supplies. Then they were attacked on the road. Three teenagers were killed on the spot, and two girls were taken abducted. ”

Beta frowned and asked in a low voice, "Did your spider go out and check?" ”

"I'm out, but it's not going to work out yet."

Beta looked at the three dead teenagers, her face showing a slight anger.

All three teenagers had learned swordsmanship from him, and he remembered their names as well. It was just an afternoon, and the person was lying here, and his body became cold.

"Let's find a way to get the two girls back. If they were still alive and found a minute earlier, they would have suffered less. If you die, you have to find the body. ”

Beta summoned Joan of Arc and raised his hand, and the latter flew out of the window.

"From now on, no one is allowed to go out. Stay in the temple and wait for things to pass. Beta looked at Harriman next to him: "From now on, the California team will be fully responsible for the security of the temple, and it will be necessary to arrange manpower patrols no matter day or night." ”

Harriman nodded, and immediately led the team members to start the defense.

Beta and Monica return to the room.

After closing the door, Monica, who was very calm, immediately said: "Who the hell is the person who dares to touch me, don't let me find him, otherwise I will definitely let him taste what his family's ashes taste." ”

Monica's love of pouring ashes into people's ashes seems to be irreversible.

Beta asked, "Do you have any clues?" ”

"Ulanso!" Monica's face became more and more gloomy.

"I think it's him, too." Beta nodded: "But now there is no evidence, you, as the archbishop, be calm." Don't rush to do it yet. We'll have to find the evidence first. ”

Monica said hatefully: "Everyone else has bullied me to this extent, why should I put up with it." If you don't help me, I'll deal with him myself. ”

No matter how powerful Ulanso's power is, Monica is not afraid. She is the god of the spider queen, her strength is not weak, and she is not easy to die, and when dealing with a small force, as long as she is willing to spend time, she can definitely slowly 'consume the other party to death'.

Beta persuaded: "Isn't your dream to be a female pope?" Then don't do this kind of trick-giving thing. Assassination of political opponents, as long as it happens once, it will be a stain on your life in the future, and it is still in the absence of solid evidence. ”

Monica took a breath and calmed down. Then she came over and took Beta's arm, rubbed two soft jelly balls around, and said in a rather sassy voice, "Beta, you're going to help me, aren't you?" ”

"Of course I'll help you." Beta wanted to break away, but seeing that Monica had finally calmed down from her angry state now, if she pulled her hand away without pity, it would probably make her heart calm extremely uncomfortable, just think about it, just let her rub it, anyway, she won't suffer: "I'm going to go to the scene of the crime to have a look, you stay in the temple to stabilize the morale of the army first." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Monica grinned.

Beta then inquired about the location of the incident and left the temple.

When Beta walked away, the grinning Monica's face suddenly became gloomy.

A dozen transparent spiders emerged from under her clothes and quickly exited the temple through the window.

She walked around the room twice, as if thinking about how to sort out the current situation, and as she turned around, she saw the floor-to-ceiling mirror next to her, which was about the height of a person.

This mirror is quite expensive and the average person can't afford it.

Monica in the mirror, with a sinister face, looks like a female demon.

She touched her face and muttered, "No, it's too ugly for Beta to see." ”

Then taking two deep breaths, she calmed herself down and smiled again.

Although the smile seemed very fake and contrived, at least it was much better than the grim face of the gloomy female demon just now.

On the street, Beta has come to the scene of the incident, and there are still three black blood stains here, which are very large and large.

The pedestrians on the road saw it from afar, and they tried to avoid the black marks of these three beaches -
