It wasn't long before Roland summoned Hoggs, the commander of the army, to return from the Ouroboros Ring to his bedroom in the manor.

However, before leaving, Hoggs was given a mission.

The task was to build a place to live in that space.

The area of the residence does not need to be too large, only a few houses are enough for the time being, after all, most of the time, it is only necessary to take refuge there in a critical situation.

Although the construction speed is very fast with the method of 21 ice queens, those buildings are all based on solid ice, and Roland always feels some discomfort when they live in an eerie ice castle.

So he dismissed that idea and sent only a hundred soldiers to carry out the construction plan.

"Alas...... There are more than 100 a day, and I'm afraid it will take more than ten days to form a small team of Chen Ghost. ”

Roland looked at the messy room and sighed helplessly.

Although he can recruit more than a hundred soldiers every WWW.UUXS.CC day, it still feels a bit slow for him. After all, even after a month, the maximum number of soldiers that could be recruited was only more than 5,000.

"Hey, what's that?"

Suddenly, his eyes were drawn to a piece of paper on his desk.

Because it was so conspicuous that almost everywhere was covered in blood, but there was a somewhat strange piece of paper on the desk.

When I looked closely, I saw that the paper was depicted with extremely scribbled ornaments, and I couldn't see what it meant, it felt like a child's graffiti was drawn indiscriminately.

Roland groaned for a moment, walked slowly to the desk, and took the paper in his hand.

The moment his palm touched the paper, a message immediately popped up in front of him:

[Ding, get a piece of paper that hides a secret.] 】

"Secret? What secret? ”

Roland looked at this strange message. I couldn't help but immediately fall into endless doubts in my mind.

When he entered the Ouroboros Ring space, it seemed that he had never seen this piece of paper at all, so he said...... This weird piece of paper is supposed to have appeared after that.

But who would put this piece of paper here?

"Mr. Roland, are you in there?"

As Roland pondered, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the priest Catherine.

"Come in. Catherine, the door is unlocked. ”

Roland frowned and said lightly to the priestess outside the door.

For some reason, the paper didn't feel dangerous, but it felt very strange, as if it were telling something.

"Mr. Roland, what's going on here?"

When Priest Catherine pushed open the door and entered the room, the first thing that caught her eye was a disgusting glow of blood.

In an instant, she couldn't help but furrow her embroidered eyebrows tightly. asked with a solemn expression.

"No...... It's nothing! It's just the consequence of doing something practical and then failing...... By the way, Catherine, are you looking for me for something? ”

Roland smiled awkwardly and responded.

It seems that the next time you cast a blank card, you really can't set the field indoors, otherwise it will definitely become so bad again.

"Well, Mr. Roland. A servant of the Knox family has just sent an invitation to deliver it to you immediately. ”

Catherine's brow was still furrowed. As she spoke, she handed Roland a letter in her hand.

The Knox family? The family that lives in Aston City and worships the gods?

The little man I met in the Temple of Craftsmanship last time was the heir of the future Knox family.

Merely...... What are they looking for me?

"Well, Catherine, please help me get the servants to prepare a carriage...... That's right. And ask them to clean the room later. ”

Looking at the letter in his hand, Roland hesitated for a while, but finally accepted the family's invitation.

For this invitation trip, there is another reason why he agreed.

For in his hands there were two copies of the blood of the gods, one of which was the blood of the cloudy Hephaestus. The other is the blood of the gods who have failed.

The Knox family worships the gods, and at the same time holds a lot of information about the gods. All Roland needed was that information, and only then would he know how to use the blood of the gods.

In the beginning, Roland wanted to try to make those two drops of blood into cards, like the lantern of Morfis.

But he never expected to be prompted: the material is insufficient.

So he had to figure out how to use the blood of the gods before he could make them into cards.

"Yes, Mr. Roland."

Pastor Catherine replied lightly, and then hurriedly left the bloodstained room.

Looks like...... The pastor didn't seem to like that very much.

"Let's put it on hold for now, maybe it might do something."

Roland glanced at the strange paper in his hand and put it back inside the Ouroboros Ring.

Since he couldn't understand what this piece of paper meant, he didn't plan to continue wasting time on it.

In a few moments he was in the courtyard of Alfred Manor, where the servants were waiting for him in a carriage.

"Mr. Roland, please be careful on the road."

And the centaur girls Christy and Catherine stood beside him and kept saying goodbye, as if he were going to some dangerous place.

"Hmm...... I would......"

Roland replied helplessly and walked slowly in the direction of the carriage.

But before he could take two steps, there was a sudden muffled bang, and a petite figure slammed into Roland, and then fell to the ground.

"Hidden? How did you end up here. ”

Roland looked intently and saw that it was the purple-haired little Loriyin.

But what was she doing in such a hurry?

"The master said that before teaching us, we must first find what he hid, so ...... My brother and I were looking for something like that. ”

The purple-haired little Lori glanced at Roland timidly and said in a low voice.

"I see...... Hidden, come on! ”

Roland reached out and rubbed the purple-haired little Lori's head, and then continued to walk towards the carriage.

He didn't feel anything wrong with that, and he wasn't familiar with teaching anyway. The only way to do this is to train the two little ones.

Suddenly, he covered his newly rubbed head, as if thinking thoughtfully about something.

"My lord, where are you going?"

"Well, let's go to the Knox family in the outer city."

Faced with the servant's inquiry, Roland immediately said the name of the Knox family.

Just name the Knox family. I'm afraid anyone who lives in Aston City will know where it is.

Because that family was one of the few nobles who lived in the outer city.

Basically, as long as they are nobles, or their family members will live in the inner city, and rarely go to the "chaotic" outer city to live.

Of course...... Except for those minor nobles who owned pastures.

And the Knox family is one of those few nobles. They had a hereditary dukeship, but they insisted on living in the outer city, a decision that caused a lot of discussion at the time.

"Yes, I see, Lord Baron."

As the servant's voice fell. As the carriage rolled out of Alfred's Manor and headed for the outer city.

"Invitation...... It's really strange, could it be that the heir young master is looking for something about me? ”

Roland sat in the carriage and read the invitation several times, but he still couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.

The invitation letter just said: I want to invite him to the Knox family, saying that there are some things I want to discuss with him, but I don't write the details at all.

But Roland didn't know. After the carriage left the manor, an ordinary figure not far away also slowly walked towards the street.

If anyone looks closely. The figure was slowly walking in the direction of the carriage, not attracting anyone's attention at all.

…………………………

Meanwhile, in a small remote hotel in Aston City.

A group of seemingly ordinary adventurers gathered in a room, as if they were discussing something.

But each of them had a black sheep-headed demon mark on their necks.

That's right, these people are all members of the Pure Darkness Church.

"Boss. Are we going to assassinate that old king tomorrow? ”

Suddenly, one of the "adventurers" hesitated for a moment and said lightly.

As his voice sounded, the rest of the people focused their eyes on a woman with the appearance of an aunt.

"No, plans have changed. Let's wait for the news first...... Today's cunning old fox postponed the announcement of the heir to the throne............"

The aunt groaned for a long time, looked up at the crowd around her, and said lightly.

In an instant, there was a deathly silence all around

"Are you all uncomfortable with this? Do you want to rush into the palace immediately and kill that old guy? But no...... Because it is a command of the church. ”

In the face of her inquiry, although the rest of the people seemed a little disappointed, no one dared to question her decision.

Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on the aunt's face: "But...... We now have another mission, which is to go to the Knox family and steal something important. ”

"Now? I already feel impatient...... The smell of blood. ”

"Me too...... It seems to smell blood again......"

As soon as the words fell, the guys in the adventurer's outfit went crazy, and everyone's faces changed. Obsessed look.

"Well, head to the Knox family now, you little ones get ready."

Soon, all the "adventurers" in this room got up from their seats, clenched the weapons in their hands, and slowly walked towards the outside of the room.
