Chapter 9: Dear Master Augustus

"Bang bang bang" three loud bangs.

Three bodies were thrown from the gate into the banquet, and fell at the feet of two young women who were talking about Augustus, who had performed well in the confrontation with the Night Hunter just now, and one of the young women subconsciously lowered her head and looked at the three corpses at her feet with wide eyes and twinkling with deep fear, and then the very unladylike screamed and jumped away, hugged the equally frightened sister on her side and pushed her back, leaving the corpse that had no breath and could never get up again.

"Night Hunter!" Looking at the three corpses, almost everyone present came to mind. This is indeed the Night Hunter who left just now, but he did not leave the town of Norok, crossed the Iron Ridge Mountains, and returned to the Demacian Empire, but stayed in the small town of Norok in the Noxian Empire forever.

The three arrows stuck in the chest can be seen at a glance, and it is not difficult to guess that these three Night Hunters are the three Night Hunters who were just wounded by Augustus with a bow and arrow.

On the left chest, a very conspicuous cross mark. The three Night Hunters all had a cross mark about a decimeter or so on their left chest, which was very clear. This is the real reason for their deaths.

There is no other reason! Kill with one move?

Who brought the corpses of these three Night Hunters, who were strong enough to assassinate high-ranking knights and even great knights, to the banquet? The answer was revealed.

Three men dressed in red gloves and black robes walked into Sir Tertoise Gloo's house, and at the banquet, whether it was a rich man, a young lady, or an elderly man named Tertoi, he saw the three men with red gloves, black robes, and a very obvious sign of the Holy See on their chests, with reverent and awe-inspiring eyes.

Whether it is the Byzantian Holy See or the Vatican Holy See, the robe is almost the same bright colors such as white, blue, and red! There was only one type of clergy allowed to wear the black robe, and that was the clergy from the Inquisition.

"The closest to darkness are not the necromancers who seek the mystery of eternal life from death, or the astrologers who are called to hold the wheel of fortune, but the three giants of the Inquisition!" Hundreds of years ago, the most powerful necromancer, Li Lanfeng, wrote this in his "Li Lanfeng Codex" that he passed down to future generations.

Although the Necromancer, who has been regarded as a heretical being by the Inquisition to this day, agrees with the view of the Great Magician of Lilanfeng, who was recognized hundreds of years ago as the closest to discovering the mysteries of eternal life, almost all races in the Upper Continent dare not accept this argument that it is very likely that the Night's Watch will be invited into the Inquisition.

However, it was the Ionian Crown who commented on the Byzantian Inquisition and the Inquisition. The words are simple: "The only thing that can judge the darkness is the very obscure darkness!" This phrase speaks to the essence of the Inquisition.

――――

"Lord Night's Watch!" The old knight Terdon, who had inherited the title of knight from his father for nearly thirty years, immediately stopped talking to Augustus, and despite the worried eyes of the two daughters of Venus and Deli, he saw two middle-aged men with red gloves and black holy church robes, one with bright red hair, a handsome young man with almost evil intentions, immediately stood up, walked up to the three men with a faltering look of respect and fanatical faith, bent down, bowed his head, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Night Watch! ”

Just as the pope with the crown rules the world of light, then it can be said that the three giants of the Inquisition are the popes of the world of darkness! The Night Watch is the one who helps the Pope of the Dark World to patrol and oversee the ghosts of this world.

As members of the Night's Watch organization directly under the three giants of the Inquisition, they are all over the continent of Valoran, but only those who can really wear red gloves are eligible to be called Lord Night's Watch. Otherwise, the average night watchman can basically only wear white gloves!

The Red Glove represents an authority that bears fruit from the outpouring of blood, while the White Glove represents a Night Watch who has not really been stained with the blood of Holy See heresy and is an unqualified Night Watchman.

The three red-gloved Night's Watch have conspicuously crossed that immature stage, and are directly subordinate to the three giants of the Inquisition.

Augustus, who had earned enough money in the Inquisition to become a Red Glove Faith Point, was naturally no stranger to the identity and symbolism of the three representatives of the Red Glove Night's Watch. When he was in Sark City, he had seen the Night's Watch, an obscure and sacred organization that walked in the dark. Of course, it was at the time when the gallows in Sarktown that he planned was nearing the end, and Augustus saw it.

Otherwise, even Augustus will feel like crazy and fainting when the night watchman suddenly comes! No one would want to deal with the people of the Inquisition, and that would mean chatting and joking with the Grim Reaper!

After all, the night watchman visitor, whether commoner, noble, or royal, has little to say, as long as the night watchman's purpose is to invite you into the Inquisition to talk about the doctrine. Then any of your earthly identities have no effect.

Of course, if the worldly status reaches the status of General Burnham, it may be a different matter. But how many Burnham generals are there in this world? Therefore, there is no other way in front of the Inquisition, an organization more powerful than the papal deterrent: reverence and submission!

Arrogant, ruthless, and unruly like Darius, he didn't dare to make any drastic remarks about the Inquisition, but he said that the Inquisition's personnel were acting too radically! These are light-hearted remarks.

――――

The three night watchmen swept over the rich, men, women, and nobles in front of them with their eyes as high as gods, looking down on all beings equally, but with cold eyes. The sight was so sharp that many of the dirty-hearted rich people felt trembling with fear, and if the next moment the three Night's Watch asked "You are guilty," many rich people might immediately shake out the sins they had committed over the years.

A long, long time ago, there was a saying in the Noxian Empire: "My young heir, if you run into an old immortal of the rank of patriarch or cardinal." Or an old aristocrat who has lived for seventy or eighty years, then you put away your little cleverness and be a fool of your duty. This is the wise choice, and power, glory, and beauty will follow! ”

This is the advice of the heir of an ancient family to the generations to come! Although the phrase "old immortal" in this sentence to describe the great patriarch of the Vatican and the cardinal archbishop who controls the power of the spiritual world has been criticized by many pious clergy, it does not prevent the profundity of this sentence.

For many rich and noble, facing the night watchman with red gloves. Instead of going to great lengths to use some cleverness to cunningly get rid of your crimes, you should boldly admit it, and maybe you can get a good deal.

To the great joy and disappointment of the rich, the three Night's Watch did not linger on them. His eyes fell on Sir Tertois, the young priest with the red gloves, who was already the best of the night watchmen, showed a bright smile at Ge Taidong, who was already covered in cold sweat, and whispered something that made Ge Taidong and the rich people present tremble: "Sir Terrow Tertoise, your performance just now proves for you that you are indeed worthy of the title of knight, and perhaps it will not be inappropriate to bring the title of viscount!" ”

Sir Terry was stunned for a moment, trembling with excitement.

And what about the rich? Trembling with trepidation! The subtext of this sentence could not be more obvious, and the young Night's Watch meant: I was watching you all along. Only Sir Terry Gotton satisfies me, and you? Hum!

The former is pious and joyful, and can be praised by the Lord of the Night's Watch, which is a matter of misery and glory! The latter, on the other hand, is pious and fearful, and the Lord Night's Watch sees our ungodly deeds, and is it not for us to be invited into the Inquisition?

Solemn and solemn! With the arrival of the three Night Watchmen, the pleasant atmosphere that had just been departed by the Night Hunters immediately became solemn. It was unclear what the three Night's Watchmen had for any purpose other than to bring the corpses of the three Night Hunters and throw them at the banquet.

Especially those rich people who conspicuously stand by and watch, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and have the ability to influence the battle situation! Who knows what the mysterious and powerful Night's Watch adults will do in the next moment that they will never forget?

The restless rich hung their heads but behaved very religiously. Respectfully stood in front of the three Lord Night Watch, ready to be reprimanded and punished by the Lord Night Watch next, but it was not expected. The youngest of the youngest, but who looked to be the leader of the three Night's Watch, walked up to Augustus, who looked calm, and opened a mouthful of white silver teeth. With a bright smile, he spoke, "It's been a long time since I've seen Augustus, and now should I call you Master Augustus or General Augustus or Lord Night's Watch?" ”

Quiet, silent!

The group of high-ranking people in Norok Town stared at the young Noxian youth in front of them with wide eyes. Young Master Augustus, General Augustus? Lord Night's Watch? The first two titles did not surprise them. The last one is important, Lord Night's Watch!

Oh my God, does this young Noxian talent who was appreciated by General Burnham still have the mysterious and powerful identity of 'Lord Night'?

Curious eyes looked at Augustus. If you can cut through the heart of Augustus, you can see everything. Augustus believed that two-thirds of the people who came out of the room were already eager to try!

Ignoring the thoughts of the others at the banquet, Augustus showed a faint smile, looked at this handsome young man with long blood-red hair, and replied with humility: "My lord, I have already said in Sark City that I do not intend to join the ranks of the Night Watch, and the Inquisition does not belong to me!" ”

"Augustus, just because you didn't belong in the past doesn't mean you won't belong forever! This time I gave the same answer as the last time, and I don't force you, I'll give me the answer when you arrive in St. Peter's City! The young man, who was decisively rejected by Augustus, was not annoyed, and said to Augustus with a smile gracefully.

Augustus smiled slightly, and did not answer, but it was already very clear in his eyes! I won't be part of the night watch, like I did last time I went to St. Peter's!

Last time? When! Augustus went to St. Peter's once! It was also Augustus' most glorious time, when the Cathedral of Egustín received a precious Iron Oak Medal from General Burnham.

Immediately after the ceremony, Augustus was summoned by General Burnham to St. Peter's Castle! At that time, General Burnham gave Augustus two options: one to lead a knight order to Ferreljord alone; Second, join the Inquisition and become a night watchman guarding the Noxian Empire!

Augustus did not like the unboring but obscure profession of the night watchman, he was willing to stand in the sun and enjoy the reverent eyes of the Valoran continent, get the dazzling glory, chase the back of General Burnham, and conquer the woman LeBlan, who may be chasing with a single body, but can't catch up, let alone conquer!

Therefore, Augustus chose to recruit a knight order to expedition to Ferreljord! Thus rejecting the invitation of the Lord of the Night's Watch in front of him: Vladimir!

Vladimir, who is said to have vampire blood and powerful terrifying powers, is also one of the three giants of the Inquisition, directly controlling the Night Watch, an organization that spreads across the continent of Valoran! (To be continued.) )
