Chapter Seventy-Seven: Knight to Knight
After eating the sacrament, a middle-aged paladin suddenly walked up to the stage and looked at the crowd: "Your Excellency Bishop has other matters to deal with, so let me announce something on his behalf." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
The crowd listened with bated breath. They knew that, as was the custom of the old folks in the Ontaret Church, the most important things were often announced last, and that included not only plans for the period after the Church, but also the appointment of important clergy and certain major decisions.
“…… Due to some very unfortunate events that happened some time ago, the Templars have decided to reassign several priests and paladins to work in the First Templar. Damaged churches are to be renovated and magically blessed materials are used to avoid further problems. ”
“…… Priests who leave their posts without permission will be severely punished, and those who commit dereliction of duty or disrespect to the Light in this series of incidents will pay the price for their actions......"
"Because artifact fragments were lost in the fire, the Templar is now recruiting personnel to help find the whereabouts of the fragments. If someone is able to find the missing artifact fragment, the Templar will pay a lump sum of 100,000 gold coins and guarantee that the person will enjoy the honor second only to the Bishop for the rest of their lives. ”
If the first announcement seemed innocuous to most people, the last one made many red-eyed. In Atlantis, 100,000 gold coins were equivalent to the income of a minor nobleman for several years, and ordinary people needed to earn two or three generations.
In fact, there had already been gossip in the cities of the Duchy of Fenir that the Bishop would be offering a large reward for finding the lost artifact fragments, so today there were many powerful mercenary teams and elite squads of the Templars.
No one is not interested in money, so when the middle-aged paladin asks if anyone would like to join, the elites from all over the world offer to help the Templar find the shards, provided that money is not missing, of course.
None of these creatures realized they were in the middle of a scam orchestrated by the Templars, but they were all overjoyed. Although only one person is destined to find the fragments in the end, in the eyes of these elites, that person is likely to be themselves.
……
Bols was captured.
Anne and her party, who had just returned to the inn, couldn't help but sink their hearts when they heard such news. After they listened to Sam breathlessly tell what had happened, they finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that these two guys had nothing to do in the afternoon, and they had the audacity to run outside to hang out. Coincidentally, the two happened to meet the patrolling security team, and those guys saw Bols in a military uniform from a distance, and thought it was a knight of the principality, so they hurriedly came over to say hello, but when they got closer, they found that there was no badge of the Principality of Finier on this knight's uniform, but only a style and similarity.
Originally, such a thing was nothing, because the laws of the principality did not say that knights from other countries were not allowed to enter. However, Pols and Sem had come near the ruins of the First Church, and they were a little sneaky because they were unfamiliar with the environment, which made the sheriffs suspicious, and they couldn't help but take Pols back to the sheriff's office.
However, the guys didn't seem to notice Sem, who looked a little dazed on the sidelines, and the latter was able to escape.
"Ontario Public Security Administration?" Anne thought for a moment and muttered, "It doesn't sound bad, maybe we'll be in time for now." ”
After Xiao Nizi finished speaking, she turned her head and walked out of the hotel.
Located in the heart of the city, the police office is one of the busiest places in Ontario. There are many small departments under the jurisdiction of this huge organization, such as the market management department, the horse fleet management department, and so on. In fact, it can be counted as the executive center of the city, and almost every aspect of it is under its jurisdiction, except for the Templar, which is not under its jurisdiction.
The vigilante team that captured Pols was led by a young Duchy knight, Davidson Barria, the son of the Duke of Barria, with a deep family background, and belonged to the kind of person who was born with a golden key. Speaking of which, this guy's identity is somewhat similar to that of Bols in the original plane.
At this time, when his men brought in Bols, who was dressed in military uniform, Davidson Barria couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly. He has seen all kinds of people since he was a child living in the aristocratic circle, and this one in front of him is undoubtedly a young aristocrat, calm and calm, cautious and atmospheric.
Seeing that his sheriffs were just following closely behind the young man, not tied with tools or with their hands, Davidson nodded slightly, feeling that these guys were doing a good job. Treat a nobleman, even a nobleman who has made a mistake, and let him fully enjoy dignity.
"If my men's actions are offensive just now, I hope they can be forgiven."
Davidson instructed the servant to hand the young knight a chair in front of him, and after squinting for a while, he finally said, "I think you may be willing to tell me who you are and what you are here for, so that the sheriff's office can make a reasonable judgment as to the nature of your actions." ”
"I'm Bols, the knight of Yellow Flame City."
"Very good, where is Huang Yancheng?"
"Huangyan City is a city in the European Empire." Bols looked at the guy in front of him who was close to his age, "My father is the city lord of Huangyan City, a nobleman of the European Empire. ”
Hearing this, Davidson couldn't help frowning slightly, as if he was looking for something in his mind: "According to my writing, among the seven countries of Atlantis and their member states, there doesn't seem to be the name of the European Empire. ”
"That's right, because it doesn't belong here at all. The European Empire is a place where there is no distinction between the Light Race and the Night Race, and the cities there don't even have walls, because it's been a long time since there has been such a thing as a large-scale war or a foreign invasion......"
At this point, Bols seemed to be stuck in some kind of memory, and he didn't come back to his senses until the knight in front of him reminded him.
"I think you should be honest with us." Davidson's fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the chair, "Now we suspect that you have ulterior motives in Ontario, perhaps it has something to do with some very bad things in the past. If you deceive me with such a trick that no child believes, then I, as an enforcer, will have to deal with you, a nobleman, with the tricks of dealing with commoners. ”
Bols's expression was calm, and he didn't react much to such a warning, and after being stunned for two seconds, he shook his head gently: "What I said is true. If you don't believe me, I'm speechless. ”
