The paladins went fast, but it didn't end there. The next day, before dawn, I saw carriages speeding out of the gates of various powerful families, either to the outskirts of the city, or to other noble houses. I don't know how many people were woken up by the sound of horses' hooves overnight, and that alone gives an idea of how big the Templar incident was.

It was not for nothing that these nobles were so nervous, because they were more or less involved with the slave traders, and some of them were even on the list of those slave traders. And now these lists have also been raided by the paladins, which has to worry them. Not to mention that because it was a raid, many nobles in the Chamber of Commerce stronghold at that time were also arrested. They weren't worried that they had anything to do with the slave trade, to put it bluntly, they were just customers, they didn't kidnap the slaves, they didn't get these people here. It's just that they're worried that the Templar will tie them to the cultists because of this -- look at the Soros family, no one wants to be the second on the list.

On top of that, what worries the nobles even more is what the Templar wants to do this time!

Without any warning, they forcibly searched for the stronghold of the legitimate chamber of commerce............ Well, while what the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce is doing is not legal in itself, in general, the Templar will not care about such things. According to the previous process, even if they suspected a suspect in a certain stronghold, they would first tell the lord or sheriff of the lord, and then get their consent before joining forces to act together. Unless there is conclusive evidence, the average paladin will not take it lightly. And the only possibility for them to directly attack the cultists' lair, once they identify themselves as cultists, then it is useless.

This time, however, the Templar Order did not follow the procedure. There were even a few nobles who knew the local bishop and were surprised to find that even those local bishops didn't know about this matter, but the high-level of the Templar Order directly ordered those paladins to act, and what was even worse was that this time the attack was everywhere, one by one. Every stronghold was seized with reason and evidence, and everyone was stolen. It is convincing that there is not a single unjust, false and wrongful case.

At first, the nobles from all over the country thought that the Templar Order had been lucky, but when they contacted each other, they were surprised to find that except for the Southern Alliance, the strongholds of the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce in other places were almost wiped out at the same time. I was immediately shocked - it was not surprising that the paladins had such executive power, but how exactly did the Templar Order obtain this information? If it's a small chamber of commerce, then they will think that the other party has made a mistake. But the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce is so famous, how can such a problem occur? Well, even if the lion's minions have a big business. It's not surprising that something is wrong with my men. But you're having problems with all your strongholds in all the territories of the Eagle Plateau? As long as you are not a stupid pig, you know that this probability is simply impossible.

So the next question is, is the Templar Order specifically staring at the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce? Or does it possess a mysterious and terrifying surveillance network?

But no matter which one it is, it makes those nobles break out in a cold sweat behind their backs, and they can pull out all the problematic chamber of commerce strongholds outside the lion's claws overnight, and none of them are missed. From this point alone, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can do. In other words, if the Templar can do this to the lion's minions today, will it be able to do the same to them tomorrow? Especially those and cultists. The nobles with ties to the dark arts were even more nervous, they didn't know how the Templar did it. But anyway, they did. Imagine if they broke into their homes like this one day. When the time comes, there will be no way to heaven and no door to the earth, isn't this death?

The nobles were terrified, but in fact the main lord Vosos was still sleeping soundly at this moment.

It wasn't to blame that he wasn't alert at all, because the nobles knew that the Templar was going for the lion's minions this time. It's not clear what the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce has done to make the Templars so aggressive. Pull out all the strongholds at once, what a deep hatred this is!!

Could it be that the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce is actually a devout follower of some evil god?

The nobles who thought of this decisively drew a line with the Chamber of Commerce of the Lion's Minions, and they all remembered the tragedy that happened in Tagus. In fact, in many cases, the reason why those nobles come into contact with cultists is largely because of the middleman of the merchants, otherwise how could those guys who are not diligent and need to go out and hug each other have a connection with the cultists hiding in the dark?

Precisely because of this. That's why the aristocracy will think of this problem for the first time when something happens, and those who are a little more active will even think that this lion minions Chamber of Commerce is the inside line of the five major cult organizations? Are they lurking here to subvert the Eagle Plateau? Could it be that everything that has happened in the past few years has something to do with them, and that it is because the Templar Order discovered this that it took action against the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce?

It's a small possibility, but it's not impossible. In addition, most of those nobles are willing to die, if it is something else, they may send someone to report it, and now that such a big thing has happened, they will definitely not come out without figuring out the reason. Are you kidding! The Templar's intelligence network is tight enough to investigate so many slave trading dens under the lion minions, and if they send someone to report it, if they are caught by the other party, wouldn't it be even more unclear?

It is precisely because of this that the other nobles' houses are full of traffic outside their homes, but the gate of the Lion Mins Chamber of Commerce is deserted, not to mention the gate, the three streets centered on the Lion Mins Chamber of Commerce are empty, and no one wants to have anything to do with the Lion Mins Chamber of Commerce at this time. Even the thieves who make a living selling news are far away from them at this time. It's really that the Templar's methods this time are too terrifying, and the person who betrayed the news knows how terrifying it is to want to quietly hear the information of so many strongholds and be able to get all of them accurate, if this information is sold to the Templar Order, forget it. But the problem is that they don't know what's going on, there's nothing more terrifying than someone overpowering them in what they're good at, so these members of the Thieves' Guild are also trembling and stepping up their tails, and the other party can even find out the hidden stronghold of the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce, will their dens also be in the hands of the Templar Order?

It's under such an eerie calm. A new day has been ushered in in Vossos.

Perhaps because of his nervous prowess, Vossos didn't feel any difference between today and yesterday or even tomorrow, and after breakfast, he began to deal with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce. It wasn't until the sun was on the clock that Voxos realized that something was wrong, as was customary. At this time, the following people should be responsible for reporting to them on the situation of the various strongholds in recent times, including those "secret" strongholds. But today he waited and waited, from morning till noon, and did not see any shadow of those people.

What's going on?

"Why haven't they come yet?"

Putting down the last document, Voxos frowned and glanced out the door. It was quiet outside, not a single sound. Hearing Vossos's inquiry, the middle-aged man thought for a moment and shook his head. He is also like his own master. I can't figure out what's going on. However, he was obviously a little more attentive than Vossos, and after thinking for a moment, he lowered his voice and spoke.

"I'll go see what's going on."

Hearing the deputy's words, Vossos nodded, and the middle-aged man immediately turned to leave. And watching his deputy leave, Voxos didn't say anything, and reached out again to take out a document and read it. And before he could finish reading the document in his hand, the next moment. I only heard a rush of footsteps outside, followed by a "bang" of the originally closed study door. Then I saw a middle-aged man rushing in sweating, he looked at Vossos with a nervous expression, and then spoke.

"My lord, my lord, something is wrong! Big things are wrong! We're surrounded by paladins!! ”

"What did you say?!"

Hearing this, Vossos was stunned.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. My lord, I wanted to go out and see what's going on outside. It turned out that the paladin had completely surrounded our chamber of commerce, not letting people in or out, and there was no half of the people around it........."

"What about the garrison? And what about those guys in the city guard? ”

Knowing that the paladins were surrounding his stronghold, Vossos also became nervous. While he didn't think he had offended the Templar Order in any way, he knew it wasn't right now. Therefore, he hurriedly asked, knowing that he had a good relationship with the Lord of Solid Stone, and because of this, there was always a guard outside the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce to protect the safety of the Chamber of Commerce, and now that they were surrounded by the Templar Order, what about those members of the guard? Why didn't they stop it? Even if you see a paladin who can't stop it, you should always inform yourself.

Of course, he couldn't imagine that after sensing that something was wrong, the Solid Stone City Lord immediately withdrew the garrison back, what kind of joke, it was rare for the Templar Order to make such a big move, there must be a problem, he went up to die at this time, did he think that this seat was tired of sitting and planned to go to the dungeon to experience a different life with prisoners?

"They're not there either!"

"What the hell is going on?"

Hearing this answer, Wothorston frowned, he was not a fool, and naturally sensed that something was wrong. But the question is what the problem is. And at this time, the middle-aged man seemed to think of something, and his face couldn't help but turn pale.

"My lord, could it be his .........?"

"You mean that hillbilly lord of Passus?"

Faced with this question, Voxos snorted coldly.

"How is it possible, even if he is a lord, it is impossible to instruct the Templar Order to do things for him!"

"Anyway, my lord, let's get out of here first.........

Hearing Vossos's rebuttal, the middle-aged man didn't say much, just said softly. He always felt that things were a little weird, and the reason why the paladins who were outside just now didn't come in was obviously like they were waiting for someone. The Nine Saints are above, he has never seen a paladin behave so arrogantly when he lives so big, what is this for?

"Getting out of here? Didn't you say that the outside was already surrounded by paladins? ”

"We can go down the tunnel........."

"There's no need for that."

With these words, I saw the closed door suddenly "bang" open, and then I saw Bishop Howard and several paladins walking in. He stared at Vossos in front of him with a serious expression, and then spoke.

"You're President Vorsos of the Lion Minions Chamber of Commerce......... We suspect that you have something to do with the Chaos Order, so please come with us to the temple to investigate. ”

Hearing this, the cold sweat on Vothos's face suddenly flowed down.

He finally understood what these paladins had come to do with him. (To be continued......)
