Chapter 152: Another Scam

readx;?“ Where we are now, what's going on? The short man asked anxiously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"I'm tied up like you, how would I know where!" His companion was a little impatient, "Can't you see what is going on?" We're kidnapped, and we're kidnapped by a group of light races. ”

Tied up by the Light Race? The short man's heart couldn't help but tighten: "These people are from Bishop Harvey's side?" It looks like we're in big trouble and will be condemned for betrayal of the Templar. ”

The so-called betrayal of the Church is, to put it bluntly, a betrayal of the Bishop. They also served in the First Church of Ontariel, and they knew everything about the church. Generally speaking, there are only two possible outcomes for betraying the Templars, one is to be secretly executed, and the other is to be imprisoned in the Inquisition of the Light.

Compared to being executed, the punishment of the Holy Light Inquisition is enough to make people truly appreciate what it means to live rather than die. Before being formally imprisoned, the Inquisition of the Light will arrange some necessary procedures, one of which is to give the prisoner a deep experience of the cruelty of the punishment and how serious the sin of betrayal of the Holy Church is.

Therefore, when the tall man heard his companion talk about this crime, he also felt a cold sweat break out on his back, which had always been calm. He straightened up a bit, trying to poke his head out of the window on the side of the carriage. But as with every attempt, no matter how tight your body is, there is still no way to see the scene outside.

"Crunch-"

The two of them listened to the sound of the wheels of the carriage outside, and felt more and more uneasy. The short man whispered, "Can you use the burning power of the Holy Light to burn the rope?" ”

"I've tried, it didn't work. These ropes are blessed with divine magic, and the faint light cannot destroy it. If the intensity of the light is increased a little more, I can't guarantee that the rope will not break, and we will definitely be burned to death in the carriage. ”

The short man was about to say something, but he heard the people outside the carriage say hello to each other, and then the crunch of the wheels slowed down, and the carriage stopped.

The two stared at each other with wide eyes, and then the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and two men in paladin armor walked in and cut the rope tied to the carriage, and then dragged them out of the carriage without saying a word.

It was still deserted outside, but there was green grass and trees, proving that they had escaped from that terrible place.

In front of them, there were several horse-drawn carriages of the same size parked there, and it was impossible to see what was inside. On the front and rear sides of several carriages, there was a squad of paladins, and roughly calculated that there were fifty or sixty of them.

A team of this size is neither large nor too thin, and is usually used as a sneak attack in war. The tall man had already seen the skills of these guys last night, and judging by the overall strength of the constituents, this team can definitely be considered elite. Moreover, apart from Ontario's strength, it was almost impossible to form such a team in other parts of the Duchy of Finnier.

From these characteristics, the tall man could almost conclude that these guys were sent from Bishop Harvey, and the real purpose was to capture Herbert and the others back to Ontario, which they had only met by chance yesterday.

However, when an older-looking paladin approached them, he asked the question, "Do you two still know me?" ”

The two of them raised their heads and saw that the old paladin in front of them was indeed somewhat familiar. Elsewhere, he had a shocking scar on his face, and the tall man was almost sure where he had seen it.

After a moment of silence, the short man shook his head. His companion's eyes widened, "I remember, you're the old paladin Gad who was imprisoned in the Inquisition of Light a long time ago for suggesting to the Alliance Templar that Bishop Harvey be removed from his position!" Haven't you been captured by the Night Race? ”

"The Night Race captured us?" The old paladin suddenly burst out laughing, "Do you think that the Night Race can control so many of our Gold-level Light races?" What happened when those self-defeating people tried to coerce us into cooperating with them? Fifty of us killed a piece of armor without leaving a single piece of armor. ”

Hearing the other party's words, the tall man's expression seemed a little strange, as if he had thought of something. He then asked, "And what do you want to do by tying us up here?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the paladins around the two of them all laughed out loud and unbridled.

A sinister smile flashed across the old paladin Gade's face: "What to do?" If I'm not mistaken, this scar must have been given by one of you young paladins. And the scars on my brothers, all from your damned Bishop Harvey. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we'll have to use the lives of the two of you to fulfill our revenge this time. Kill you first, and then find a chance to clean up Harvey's old bastard. ”

As he spoke, the sneer on his face suddenly froze, and the knight's long sword at his waist was drawn silently and quickly, and the tip of the sword instantly hit the tall man's neck.

"Wait a minute," explained the tall man, whose tone changed in fright, and spoke very quickly, "we are not Harvey's people, we are Lord Herbert's people. We share your goal of getting Harvey to death. The enemy of your enemy is your friend, isn't it? ”

As he said these words, he could already feel the cold tip of the long sword piercing the skin on his neck, and he could even feel drops of blood flowing out of the wound and slowly sliding down the crook of his neck.

Thankfully, after hearing these words, the tip of the sword stopped its forward trend in time, otherwise as long as it penetrated three or four centimeters deeper, even if the most powerful priest of healing skills came here, I am afraid that there would be no way to recover.

"Herbert?" A puzzled look appeared on Gade's face, "The old paladin Herbert, who escaped in the Duchy rebellion a few months ago? Aren't those guys gone? ”

"Indeed, but we are hiding our tracks not because we are afraid of Harvey, but because we are gathering enough strength to have a duel with him." The tall man had a solemn face, and then threw out the sentence he had just learned from someone else, "Lord Herbert has secretly developed a lot of power in the Duchy, and he should soon be able to surpass Harvey's power." ”

Gade's expression remained skeptical. The tall paladin was afraid that he would kill again, so he hurriedly used his superb lobbying skills: "If you don't believe me, we can take you to meet Master Herbert." Your real enemy is Harvey, who directs everything to others. If Master Herbert can get the help of all of you, I believe it won't be long before we can storm Ontario and capture Harvey's old fellow alive. (To be continued.) )
