130.Chapter 130

Benjamin knew that Rubens didn't like nonsense, so he swallowed back the words that he wanted to go to sleep and rest, and just nodded and said, "Then I... I'll arrange the carriage later. ”

"What? Something to say?"

Rubens heard his voice and stopped.

"Yes, there are some. Benjamin reached out and touched the sparse beard on the side of his mouth, and whispered: "I probably know the identity of that shooter..."

"So fast?"

The Overseer raised his eyebrows in surprise, saying that he had sent someone to investigate almost immediately after the battle, but after such a scuffle, to track down a shooter hiding in the shadows was really a needle in the sea for a single-means Templar guard, so Rubens didn't expect much - but at this time, hearing Benjamin say this, his eyes lit up at first, and then he thought of some reason, and frowned slightly: "Could it be that this person... Something to do with you?"

Both of them are old foxes, their brains turn fast, and there is little hidden in their words, Benjamin smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "It does have a relationship, but... Alas, I really don't know where to put my old face when I say it - he actually helped me a lot..."

Rubens was interested and was about to listen carefully, when a priest hurried up from the church and saluted in a low voice: "Lord Overlord, Lord Bishop, there is a knight outside the abbey who wants to visit - he says his name is Titus..."

"Knight Titus?"

The two old men glanced at each other, and both understood what the arrival of this knight meant.

On the other side of the monastery, Sally didn't seem to be in good shape.

Although the threat of Francis is solved, he can kill his own brother... It's not something you can forget about when you get up asleep. Although her heart has matured to the point where she can kill decisively, what really annoys Sally is not the act of "killing" itself... It's the psychological burden of the torment in the heart after doing it.

The blood-stained crimson robe had been removed, but the strong smell of blood seemed to be still visible between breaths. Sally had a long night, and when she closed her eyes, Francis's crumbling head always appeared in front of her, and when she opened them, she felt even more suffocated by the oppressive darkness.

After staying up all night, Sally's face was unusually pale at this time, but she was strong and did not break down or cry about it. When it was dawn, Sally hastily cleaned up, got up and went to the bishop to explain that she wanted to go back to the mansion, but as soon as she pushed the door open, she ran into Chriss, who came to find her...

"Knight Titus looking for me?"

Hearing Chrissy's intention, Sally had some doubts in her heart, but then she suddenly realized.

"Okay, I'll go now. ”

Although her tone was calm, Sally's face was very bad at this time, and her haggard look was distressing, and Chrissy accompanied her to the church worriedly—in the distance, Sally saw the knight of Titus, who was two heads taller than the ordinary people, and the latter waved his hand at her from afar, and his face was full of smiles, and his honest appearance was no different from the young knight he had seen years ago.

Sally smiled reluctantly, and was about to say hello, but then she froze—for she saw that Bishop Rubens, in addition to Bishop Benjamin, was also standing beside Knight Titus, looking at her with a warm smile.

Such a solemn "specification" made Sally's heart a little strange, and she stepped over to salute one by one, and then heard the conversation between the Lord Overlord and the Knight of Titus:

"On the 25th we will have a new talk, and after the talk, I will return to the 'temple.' After a few polite words, the Overlord quickly said what he really wanted to express, "So today, if I can, I would like to visit the Duke's palace at noon and thank the Duke for his help, and I hope that Knight Titus will pass it on." ”

Knight Titus scratched the back of his head and responded somewhat awkwardly.

When a few people said this, Sally next to her felt uncomfortable - her father was seriously ill and couldn't think about such a question for a long time, and Knight Titus promised to agree now, but I'm afraid that if I stay in the meeting, I will have to send someone to refuse politely...

After a few formulaic answers, Sally was given the "permission" to return to the Duke's Palace, but she sat in the carriage without any excitement or relief, and only looked at the scene with a numb expression.

Although the threat has been lifted ... But at this moment, Sally's heart did not feel much brightness or comfort: even if she returned to the Duke's Palace, what could she do?

Politically, although he is stronger than ordinary people, he is just a child after all, such a large territory, and now he is left to work hard to maintain it, I am afraid that it will not be long before someone will pay attention to the head of the Rouseflon family, right?

As for Roddy...

Sally shook her head helplessly at the thought of this elm pimple - he couldn't help with the affairs of the territory after all...

The chaotic emotions in her heart piled up, so that Sally didn't even notice that the mansion that greeted her a few years ago was no longer the alpha butler... She walked to the door of her father's bedroom with heavier and heavier steps, and when she looked at the silhouette sitting in the armchair, the indescribable depression in her heart became clearer...

If this continues, what should I do? Who will take care of the affairs of the territory? How will the monastery explain it? Will I really be a priest for the rest of my life?

"Father, I'm back. ”

As usual, Sally said this greeting to Angmar with a slight husk - for a long, long time Sally had hoped that her unconscious father would have a response, but for five years, she had finally given up waiting in disappointment after disappointment.

Now that I say this, I mean... It was just a habit for Sally, and she walked on her way, expecting no answer—and yet......

"Welcome home, kid. ”

"Well..."

The sound of response from front of her made her instinctively respond, but because her mind was in a mess, Sally didn't even notice anything unusual about this situation at first - it wasn't until she took two steps that she suddenly stopped, then raised her head and stared ahead...

Her body trembled slightly, and her already pale cheeks were now completely like white paper.

In the field of vision, the Duke of Angmar, who was originally facing the fireplace, slowly turned his head, and his face, which had no expression in his impression, was now carrying a familiar smile, and his pupils flashed with a deep light.

Angmar blinked and said softly, "What, you don't know me?"

"Father-father?!"

Sally opened her mouth wide and was there, and then finally made sure that she was not hallucinating, she walked up to her father with her legs as if she did not obey the call, stared blankly at the old man in front of her who had not spoken to her for several years, opened her mouth to say something, but finally threw herself directly into her father's arms as she did when she was a child... Then she cried out loud.

On the other side, all the scouts in the hotel in Cambay had already gotten up.

Roddy was waxing the bowstring at this time, and Sodrol next to him asked casually while tightening the clasp of the arm guards, "What's next?"

"Stand still, keep an eye on the situation, and I'll go to the monastery and ask Sally what's going on. Roddy blew the strings, the oil wax is boiled with animal fat, and the taste is rather choking, but he likes this strange smell, sniffs lightly, and quips: "Hey, I was suddenly thinking... If Sally has inherited the 'Duke' by now, it will certainly not be a problem for her to give us a 'knight'. ”

Sodrore raised his eyebrows, interested in such a topic, and asked, "Then if you really have a knight honored, where do you want to choose a place to be a knight?"

"I don't want to find a place to make a living by collecting rent every day," Roddy jumped on the strings, all he could think about was the various dungeon strategies and the list of dropped items, "Didn't I say that I want to make you the first knights of the kingdom-"

"Well... I believed. ”

Sodrore rolled his eyes, but was kicked by Roddy - "Don't think I'm! ”

"What do you mean?" Sodrore raised his eyebrows and asked, a little puzzled, "I'm going to be a knight?"

"I have my reasons, and you'll know when you look back. ”

Roddy said as he opened the experience bar and looked at it, but didn't explain anything.

Speaking of which, what Luo Di was thinking about at this time was actually the "title" related to the title of nobility.

In the game, after level 10, players begin to generally earn "titles" in a variety of ways, and at the same moment there is the option to "activate" a title to gain additional attributes or skills for themselves, with a cooldown of 24 hours.

This sounds similar to a "combat stance", but it's not a thing at all.

The additional effects brought by "Battle Stance" are basically linked to the skills of your own class, while "Title" is another thing entirely, some bring attributes, and some are auras, in short, there are all kinds of effects, but they are not linked to the class skills themselves.

Talking about the award of "knight" just now, Luo Di is by no means modest in his heart or wants to stand behind the scenes to be some black hand, his idea is very simple: the "passive" title of nobility is not as powerful as the additional effect of the "active pioneering" title of nobility, so he is determined to be a nobleman who occupies the borderlands and obtains the title, not the title of "knight" obtained by being awarded at this time.

"I'm done here, I might need to take a trip to the Silent Forest. ”

Luo Di thought about the plan in his mind and arranged: "As for whether you go back to Nolan Village or where, I can't decide this, but I can confirm that the treatment should not be bad." ”

"To the Silent Forest, do you need our help?"

Sodrore was a little confused, but didn't ask why.

Luo Di naturally knew that the advanced task had to be completed alone, and shook his head and said: "It may take a while to walk alone, so I still have to sell those broken crystals in Kig Town or something, in exchange for the funds should be enough for you to train for a while, don't stop, this must be done every day." ”

Sodrore nodded, but then heard Roddy ask, "You said you were almost at the bottleneck?"
