After Andre and his party entered the port of Mertil, Buck never entered the city lord's mansion again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Occasionally, the guards turned him away, citing his humble status as a disqualification for military politics.

This cleared Buck, and the Imperial army needed time to recuperate, and it was impossible to attack it immediately in a short period of time.

On weekdays, they drank and fought with Faye and other team members, and the atmosphere in the team was not very harmonious, and they were more in awe of Buck than in support. But these days, they found that this captain did not have any official authority, and he was very easy to contact, and after a few trips to the tavern, he was very enthusiastic.

And since Faye confided in her heart that day, she began to ask Buck for some insights from time to time, and the frost giant seemed to be a big grin, but thick and thin. He had long noticed that his former opponent seemed to be quite good at decision-making, and it just so happened that he had something on his mind, so he would not miss the opportunity to ask for advice.

"It's normal for this to happen to your tribe, the Frost Giants themselves are a restless race......" Buck said without hesitation.

Fei's breathing became heavy, and anyone who heard this kind of personal attack like a map cannon would not be calm.

Noticing his reaction, Buck continued, "So the Frost Giants can tolerate rebellion, but not incompetence. All you have to do is prove yourself if you want to reclaim where you rightfully belong. These were actually the practices of the previous life Fei, and Buck just told him that they were as they were. What Faye did at that time was to directly beat his uncle in a public occasion.

These words came to Fei's heart, and he had a general idea for a long time, but he didn't have such a clear idea. After a little bit of Buck's dialing, I suddenly felt like I was empowered.

Not long after such peaceful days passed, they were broken. A great sage suddenly appeared in the villages around Metil to reassure the villagers, and there was nothing special about it. In the midst of war, there will always be believers who are usually neglected and waiting for an opportunity to spread the faith, because this is the time when the human heart is at its weakest.

But what is unusual about this incident is that the supporter of the Great Sage is extremely fanatical, and the degree of fanaticism is difficult for others to comprehend. The head of a village just said, "This is not in accordance with the rules of the Federation." The next day, the body was found on the main road at the head of the village.

The case was quickly solved, and as soon as the magistrate arrived at the scene, someone immediately turned himself in, confessing that he could not bear the village chief's blasphemy against the sage. The sheriff wanted to take the murderer away, but he was besieged by the villagers and was beaten to death! Mertil's guards arrived, but found that all kinds of traps and obstacles could not enter the village......

The first-level chain reaction unfolded by this incident was unexpected. In the City Lord's Mansion, Colin was hollowed out, and everything was handled by Andre.

"Sage? A group of clowns ...... "Andrei's whole mind is to obtain military merits, and this kind of thing seems to him to be made up by some ignorant villagers." "You can ...... by sending troops directly to exterminate it"

Wen Shi looked solemn, he knew that the more wartime it was, these things were at stake and could not be ignored. "No...... It's not that simple. ”

Andrei has always attached great importance to the prime minister's opinion, "Then what do you say?" ”

"Send someone over to appease and investigate by the way." Wen Shi thought for a moment: "There is always someone to do these things, and there is a suitable person right now......

An order was placed in front of Buck, and instead of transferring him back to the Emerald Capital, he was given a rare responsibility.

"Appease the investigation?" Buck tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, a habitual movement that helped him soothe his uneasiness. The story had spread through the city, and the words fanatical faith, inexplicable murder, and fearless siege had reminded him of a familiar word, "strife."

If there is no trace of these things as a believer, he does not believe them at all, and Bane is notoriously fond of using these means to achieve his ends. So his followers are rarely stupid enough not to study this technique.

This matter is extremely risky, and as a person who cannot afford to be unprofitable, in theory, Buck can completely leave it alone. But what piqued his interest was what was hidden behind the scenes.

After the Imperial army returned, it was extremely likely that the temple would not be able to hold back its action. In the previous life, the driving force behind the collapse of the empire and the Federation was likely to be the temple. Not long after the fall of the Federation, Bane conspired with Mirko and Baal to seize the Tablet of Destiny......

His main concern now is the next development of the situation, and if he chooses to investigate this incident, he can certainly gain something in this regard.

"I'll gather the team and set off." Buck said to the herald.

The herald shook his head: "The villagers' resistance to this matter is too serious, and the lord means to let you act alone and beware of news leaks." ”

"It's fine." Buck thought about it for a moment, and felt that it would be easier for him to act, so he agreed.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Buck rushed to the village. There are all traces of construction on the paths outside the village, and even a layman like him can see the hidden pitfalls.

Rather than take these routes, he found a slightly lower part of the wall and rolled over. Under the cover of night, it was not noticed. There is a lack of people with military literacy in the village, so it is not easy to set some traps and patrol again. Other means of counter-reconnaissance do not have to be counted on.

When Buck infiltrated the village, he heard a howl of pain coming from an abandoned house. He frowned, still following the sound to explore the past.

Buck unleashed the primordial darkness in the Chaos Rune as he got closer, making himself invisible and using this skill, it would be difficult to detect his presence even if he was standing next to him.

Through the faint light, a young man could be seen firmly bound, and his clothes had long been torn into strips of cloth. The other was armed with a whip and whipped it mercilessly.

"Escape? Snitch? Amazing! Martin, I didn't expect you to be such a betrayer! "Every word you say is a whip.

The poor man, Martin, trembling and begging for mercy, was tortured to the point of being inhuman, but what terrified him was that the people of the village seemed to have changed all of a sudden, and believed in the outsider who called himself the Great Sage. He wanted to leave, but was caught, and now the person who tortured him was his friend from childhood to adulthood.

Just as he was fighting hard, the man suddenly went limp, lost consciousness, and sat down on the ground.

Martin was stunned, only to notice that there was an extra person in the room.

"I have something to ask you, help you untie the rope first......" The stranger stretched out his hands and pulled hard, breaking the strong rope.
