Chapter 109: Provocation
"There's no one left for the Santarim Society...... Buck said critically, "to send a guy like you on a mission." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"People have written to tell you that I am an assassin. You don't know how to prevent it yet? ”
Corot was short of breath for a while, but he couldn't refute it.
"Look at your attire, you should be a priest." Buck glanced at Corot and had an idea in his heart, "And with your strength, in the Santalin Society, most of you are a low-end person, and you can't touch things that are too esoteric......"
When Corot heard this, he couldn't wait to shout in his heart that he could not wait for understanding, he wished that he could get by. The stakes are so high that he can't afford to do anything if the news leaks out.
"Tell me, what is your purpose here?" Buck asked bluntly.
"I'm just homesick and want to bring this devotion to the god of strife, so I returned here." Corot flickered his words, tempting him, "If you are willing to join, I can recommend you to be a cadre!" ”
Buck interrupted impatiently waving his hand, "Don't hide it. Isn't it just to capture the port of Mertil as soon as possible? For example, a ritual to weaken the city's defenders? Or maybe make a blood sacrifice and summon some monsters to attack the city? ”
Corot was stunned and stammered, obviously he didn't say anything, but the other party knew all about these secrets, and the details were told nine times out of ten.
"Alright, thanks for the news." Buck said, "It's about the same ...... I got from Erica," and the last sentence seemed to be talking to himself, but it was loud enough for Corot to hear. Buck didn't have a good impression of the poisonous tongue girl, and the high-level of the Santarin Society he knew was just that, just throwing some dirty water on it.
Corot on the side is paying attention, Lord Erica? This high-ranking cadre in the Santarin Society can't have any intersection with him, a reserve member, but since it is related to this adult, the scope of this matter is too large, and he can't be the master, so he can only report the news back first. I wonder if this demon in front of me will give himself this chance......
"You know too much, and you're not honest." Buck's ears twitched slightly, then he turned his head and said to Corot regretfully, "So ......"
Coro's face was as pale as earth, and when he saw that Buck was about to make a move, he searched his mind to find the words to delay time, and suddenly shouted loudly, "My lord! Slow your time! I have a secret to tell......"
"Say it." Buck crossed his arms and motioned for him to speak.
While sweating like rain, Koro said: "In fact, it is the god of strife himself who sent an oracle to destroy the Federation as soon as possible......"
Since he chose to speak, he didn't keep it anymore, and in order to fight for a chance to live, Corot simply didn't do anything, and said everything he knew, "We are here on the orders of Elder Edward, hoping to break through Port Mertil as soon as possible!" ”
"It would have been better if it had been like this earlier." Buck knew what he was saying, and let go of his hand with a smile, "Okay, your people are almost there, you won't ask them to come after me again, will you?" ”
"Of course not!" Corot almost swore to the sky, his life hung in the hands of others, and it was normal to be soft.
Buck nodded, his body leaning out, he had already sensed in advance that a group of people were coming through his expertise in "listening to dice".
As soon as Buck left, the door opened, and a group saw that Coro was in a bad state,
Corot was well aware of one of Bane's teachings that tolerated disloyalty over incompetence. And leaking so much information by himself has confirmed the label of incompetence, and the consequences of this are chilling to think about.
"My lord, what should we do?" One of his subordinates asked with a shudder that if Koro was punished, their men would not end well.
Koro Tie blushed, gritted his teeth and said, "Big people can act recklessly? We, the reserve members, are only worthy of carrying the black cauldron? Let's take a look at it and see what else can be done to remedy it......"
……
"Ridiculous!" Erica didn't know that she was secretly being put on a role by Buck, and she was furious at this time, "Elder Edward, you are so bold that you dare to stretch your palm to the front line!" "The legendary mage's anger was incomparable, and his powerful spiritual power raged, making everyone present feel thrilled and unable to help themselves.
The mage had a headache, and the contradictions between the church and the army had become more and more acute since the last time the Imperial army suffered a defeat in the Harbor of Mertil. The priests, led by Elder Edward, took matters into their own hands and sent their men directly to the front.
This is tantamount to direct interference in the military at the front, and I really don't know what the consequences will be if such a boundary is broken. The gulf between kingship and theocracy is not so easy to cross.
Elder Edward held the scepter in his hand, and as a legendary priest, he didn't care about this spiritual coercion, and replied without humility or arrogance: "Lord Bane personally sent down an oracle urging us to destroy the Federation. If it weren't for the incompetence of the military itself, why would I behave like this? I've heard that the front commander is Master Jones! Hum! ”
"What if it's Jones!" Erica raised her eyebrows, she couldn't hear Edward's insinuations. With a burst of temper, she scolded: "It's better than your psychologically deformed old pervert!" "Try it with a poisonous tongue, and personal attacks are no problem.
Edward was overwhelmed for a moment, and he was a devout disciple like Bane, who was a loyal Bane, under the influence of the deformed doctrine of the God of Strife, his psychology was a little different from ordinary people, and he was helpless. But his status is respected, and it is the first time that privacy has been brought to the table so nakedly.
"That's enough!" An angry shout came from the high seat, stopping the fight between the two, Erica and Edward closed in unison, the speaker was majestic, although the body was covered by a black robe, but the majestic aura exuded controlled the situation.
"Erica needs to reflect on this," said the majestic figure irrefutably, "Elder Edward's impatience is understandable, and now everything is in favor of Lord Bane's oracle!" ”
"Father!" Erica was anxious to explain, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Call me Lord! If there is a dispute, it will be put on hold. ”
"Yes......" Erica reluctantly agreed, and Santarin would be the one who carried out the will of the god of strife. This time, Lord Bane personally issued the oracle, and she didn't know the pressure her father was under. It's just that the contradiction between royal power and divine power has always existed, and if the relationship between the two cannot be handled well, the consequences will be unimaginable!
And her sweetheart's status is so embarrassing, causing her to be misunderstood in everything she does, as a cadre of the Santalin Society, she is treated as an outsider to guard against it, which is really helpless.
