Chapter 35 Cooperation

When I entered the building, I saw rows of bookshelves covering the house.

On it is the knowledge that the temple has collected over the years in the southern counties, compiled into a book, and stored here.

The clergy, standing or sitting, holding a book in their hands, read carefully.

The arrival of the two did not attract the attention of others, and Illya led Malone straight upstairs.

Ma Long couldn't help but ask: "This place is not open to the public, is it, you brought me, an outsider, here, is it really okay?" ”

Illya smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Bishop is up there, I learned that you are here and wants to see you." ”

"Uh......" Malone didn't know what to say? It took a long time to say, "You sold me like this?" ”

Illya stopped, turned around, and said with a serious expression: "It's not that I sold you, with the power of the temple in Los Angeles, when you entered the city, I found you, even if you don't come to the temple today, someone will invite you tomorrow." She explained carefully, and it could be seen that she attached great importance to her relationship with Ma Long.

"Okay!" Marlon shrugged and said, "It's me who blames you!" ”

"Cut, no sincerity at all! However, I forgive you a lot! As he spoke, he turned around and continued upstairs.

Marlon followed in his footsteps, and suddenly thought of the scene when he entered the city, so he said: "By the way, I want to ask you something?" Then he told the story of the provocation he had encountered.

Elijah pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know who it is, are you sure you didn't offend anyone?" ”

"Gough, as far as the new Knight Captain of your temple, the only thing I can think of is him!"

Illya shook her head and categorically denied: "It can't be Gough!" ”

"Why?" Malone asked.

Illya said in a deep voice: "Gough is a real knight, even if you offend him, he will not trouble you in this way, he will directly find you to duel." ”

Ma Long frowned, and said with a suspicious expression: "Who could that be?" "This invisible enemy is the most disgusting and more dangerous!

Illya said lightly: "Actually, you don't have to worry, if you really offend Gough, it may be his subordinates acting privately, which may or may not be a good thing for you." ”

"What's the good thing?" Malone asked.

"Here we are." Illya didn't answer anymore.

It turned out that the two of them had come to the third floor unconsciously, and Illya walked to the door facing her, knocked lightly, and said, "Lord Bishop, the Marlon Knight has arrived." ”

In the middle of the night, a voice came from inside the house, "Let him in!" "It's the Bishop of Nottington.

Illya winked at Malone and encouraged, "Don't worry, go ahead!" ”

Ma Long thought about it, they were all here, and there was no need to think nonsense, so he settled down, pushed the door and walked in.

Entering the door, I was greeted by a small ashram, where the Bishop of Nottington, whom I had seen before, sat on a cushion.

Marlon was opening his eyes when he came in, and at that moment it seemed that the whole ashram was lit up. There was an inexplicable pressure spreading, "What a strong strength!" Ma Long sighed in his heart, but he was not affected.

Seeing Marlon Hao had no effect, the Bishop of Nottington felt that he had made the right decision, so he got up and said: Marlon Knight, or should I call him Baron Marlon? "He seemed warm and gracious.

"Your Excellency, Bishop!" Malone saluted.

The bishop waved his hand and said, "Don't be so reasonable, sit down first, and then discuss things." ”

"Follow your arrangement!" Ma Long sat down on the chair on the side, with strong strength, Ma Long sat very calmly!

"I wonder what the Bishop commands?" Ma Long asked indifferently.

The bishop looked kind and said with a smile: "You young people are in a hurry, so let's get down to business first!" ”

After a pause, seeing that Ma Long was listening carefully, he continued: "I actually came to you to talk about cooperation. ”

Ma Long raised his eyebrows and said, "Cooperation? No money, no one, how can adults think of me. ”

"Strength!" Nordington said in a firm tone: "I don't lack people or money, I need a strong knight now." ”

After pondering for a moment, Ma Long said: "I don't know how adults want to cooperate"?

"You just need to wait a few more days in Los Angeles and go to the royal capital with me."

Malone asked: "Since it is cooperation, the adults have to tell me the reason, where does the danger come from, and when will it come?" ”

The Bishop of Nottington suddenly laughed and said cheerfully: "I really didn't misunderstand you, not cowering, not reckless, very good." ”

After the words fell, he stood up and said, "I can only tell you the reason, and the rest depends on your understanding." ”

Ma Long then got up and said, "My lord, please speak." ”

"The temple is not monolithic!" There was regret in his words, and there was emotion: "Some people don't want me to return to the main temple safely. ”

The bishop asked, "You understand?" ”

Ma Long pondered for a moment and said, "Naturally! It's just that I didn't expect that in your status, power can be life-threatening. ”

"What is there to think of, what is the difference between this and the crown prince earning the position of heir! It seems that you are still a little too naΓ―ve. The bishop laughed.

Marlon didn't answer, but asked, "What can I get?" ”

The bishop stared at Marlon and said solemnly, "What do you want?" As long as I can do it, it's fine."

"Elia!" Marlon opened his mouth expressionlessly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ "I don't ...... sneer," the bishop laughed, "you really dare to think that this matter is up to you, and I have no objection." ”

He stopped and smiled: "In this way, I can give you a message, a suggestion, how about it?" ”

Malone asked in a stiff tone, "What advice?" ”

"Don't be dissatisfied, I can guarantee that you won't regret it. How, do you want to listen? It's about territory. ”

"I don't think you're going to use public news to fool me."

"Naturally! I suggest that when you choose a territory, you can choose to be in Northshire. And preferably a blackstone collar. ”

"Why?" Malone asked.

The bishop put his hands behind his back and said, "You are Martin's grandson, so you must know what happened in North County decades ago!" ”

"Hmm!"

"First of all, those nobles in the North County used to be knights under your grandfather. If you go, not only will you not be excluded, but you will also get a lot of help. ”

Ma Long really didn't know that the nobles of Beijun were the subordinates of his grandfather back then, and these grandfathers didn't say it.

I don't know that the new aristocracy is the object of exclusion.

Sure enough, there are some things that are difficult for people who are not in that circle to know.

I only heard the bishop continue: "Also, the kingdom is ready to provide great assistance to the North County, and at this time, choosing the North County will have much greater benefits, which will be beneficial to the construction of your territory. ”

"Why did the kingdom come to the aid of the North County?" There is no such thing as a free lunch, and it is not enough to just think about it.

The bishop paused, glanced at Marlon, and explained, "More than thirty years ago, the wizards planted a curse against the barbarians in the Grand Canyon in order to prevent the barbarians from going south again. ”
