The identity of the cultists seems to be beyond doubt.

Bard Wendell, the former wolf general of the Typhon Empire, is the son of a duke with a glorious status and an immeasurable future.

But he showed up here, defeated by Gawain as a level 5 depraved druid, and even had an arm blown off by a grenade.

What the hell is going on here?

Of course, it is a gain to be able to find a huge stain on the top of a neighboring country (and now it can be said to be an enemy country), but Gawain is more curious at the moment about what kind of incredible life journey this Bard Wendell has gone through to get to where he is today, this amazing change is not explained by the ups and downs of life, it is simply the ups and downs of life - he couldn't help but ask the agent lady in front of him: "I don't know much about the nobles of today's countries, that Bud Wendell and his family, How much do you know? How much can you tell me? ”

"The Mithril Treasury is not a specialized intelligence organization, and what we know is limited to those things that can be circulated and do not involve secrets," Melita nodded slightly, "Bard Wendell, the only son of Duke Ferdinand Wendell, is gifted and diligent, and is a devout believer in the god of war Kyle, he has received the elite education of the nobility since he was a child and the teaching of the God of War sect, and at the age of ten he showed Kyle's spiritual talent - after conversion, he quickly grew into a powerful god knight, and his strength is close to the high rank, He was the most brilliant of Typhon's last generation of young people. ”

"Stop," Gawain interrupted Melita, "that is, his transcendent rank is a Knight of God's Favor?" ”

"That's right - at least that's what the outside world says, and I don't think there's going to be a problem with this intelligence."

"When he fought me, he only had strong swordsmanship skills, and he didn't have the slightest bit of Kyle's divine power in him," Gawain said solemnly, "All of his supernatural powers belong to druid spells, I can be sure of that." ”

"Maybe there was some reason why he lost the protection of Kyle, the god of war," Melita guessed, "and that might be why he joined the cult." ”

"Anyway, you go on - you mentioned that Bud disappeared more than a decade ago, what's going on?"

Melita nodded: "After passing the assessment and trial of the god of war Kyle, Bard Wendell officially took over the title of 'wolf general' inherited from their family from his father, and was promoted to knight lord by Emperor Typhon, becoming one of the high-ranking commanders of the Knights of the Typhon Empire, but he only stayed in this position for a year - during a routine standoff on the Ansu-Typhon border, he and an elite knight order were sent out of the city to carry out reconnaissance, and walked into a thick fog in full view of everyone, and then disappeared with the thick fogIt wasn't until three days later that several of the insane knights were found wandering the wilderness, and the whereabouts of Bard Wendell and the remaining elite knights were still unknown. ”

At this point, Melita added a few words in passing: "The relationship between Typhon and Ansu has deteriorated in recent years, and the disappearance of Bard Wendell has greatly exacerbated this trend - Typhon's people believe that Ansu murdered their commander with sorcery, while Ansu's people believe that it was Typhon's own farce to find an excuse to increase his army." In fact, this almost led to a direct war between the two sides that year, but when the situation deteriorated at its worst, Bard Wendell's father, Duke Ferdinand, voluntarily announced that the disappearance of his only son had nothing to do with Ansu, so that the war could not break out. ”

Gawain pinched his chin slightly: "Ferdinand Wendell? Is he anti-war? ”

"No, on the contrary, he had been Typhon's military minister until then, and he was a steady main battle faction, and several of Typhon's military reforms were completed by him with his Imperial Majesty, so the old duke suddenly stood up to stop the war, which really shocked a group of people's eyes, and after that, the old duke also changed from the original main battle faction to neutrality - he is still promoting Typhon's military reform, but he has repeatedly delayed military operations on the imperial border on the grounds that the time is not ripe, etc., Although many facts later proved that his judgment was correct, his change of heart still caused a lot of discussion in the outside world......"

Gawain exhaled slowly, and pinched his brow in thought.

The original glorious star of tomorrow, the pious and powerful "wolf general" disappeared in a simple military operation, and after more than ten years of missing whereabouts, he suddenly appeared in such a place in the south of Ansu where birds don't, not only did the power of the god knight lose everything, but also became a fifth-level degenerate druid; The old duke, who was originally the main war faction, not only did not trouble the "suspected suspect" after losing his son, but prevented the war many times - what is the connection between these two things? Did the old duke know something that led to his later transformation?

The reason why a god-worshipping knight can betray his faith and betray himself to a cult formed by other religions is not simple, and an idea suddenly popped up in Gawain's mind - could it be that Bard Wendell learned the truth that "the gods are dead"?!

Of all the information he had so far, this was the only one that could explain the earth-shattering changes that had happened to Bard!

Gawain's thoughts couldn't help but extend: if contact with the truth caused Bud Wendell to betray his faith, does that mean that his original magical power was also lost for the same reason at the same time?

As long as you can't maintain your faith in the gods, will you lose the corresponding divine arts?

What is that magic? Just believe that there is a god who is fooling...... A kind of "cheap" transcendent ability that you can get by protecting yourself?

But with such a powerful power, it must have a source......

So going around and around, Gawain suddenly found himself back to the problem that had bothered him not long ago:

At a time when the gods are dead, the priests and believers who remain pious and gain the power of the gods through prayer and ritual are the objects of their prayers and worship...... What the hell is it?!

"Lord Duke?" Seeing that Gawain hadn't moved for a long time, Melita finally couldn't help but speak, "Lord Duke, are you listening?" ”

Gawain quickly woke up, he rubbed his eyebrows and asked casually, "Does Bard Wendell have an heir?" ”

"He left behind a young daughter, Andesa Wendell, before he disappeared, and now more than ten years later, that little girl has grown up, and the bloodline of the Wendell family has also shown its influence on her: her swordsmanship is as good as her father's," Melita said unhurriedly, "Androsa has now been appointed by Emperor Typhon as a knight lord, as the commander of a branch of the Imperial Knights, which is probably some kind of compensation, but that little girl is doing a good job in this position, It only takes one or two feats to make Andesa Wendell take over the title of 'Wolf General' like her father and become the next head of the Wendell family. ”

"The name that the stunned young man gave himself back then is really a family glory now," Gawain shook his head and commented, and then asked, "So that Andesa Wendell is also like her father, believing in the god of war Kyle, and belongs to the god-favored knights?" ”

"No, that's interesting - she became a transcendent knight through the most orthodox knightly training and magical training, and it is said that Duke Ferdinand forbade Andessa to convert to any religion, so the young female commander is still a non-believer."

"Indeed, this is interesting......" Gawain repeated thoughtfully, "interesting......"

Melita smiled slightly: "Lord Duke, there is only so much information I can provide, have you thought of anything?" ”

"I think of a few things, but it's all messy, God knows how a god-like knight with a bright future could have become a depraved druid with a bright future," Gawain exhaled, facing Melita, who was not very familiar, he didn't tell all the shocking secrets he knew, "Thank you for the information, if you hadn't come, I'm afraid I'd never have guessed the identity of that cultist...... Bizarre. ”

"So, are you going to spread the word?" Melita's eyes slightly bent when she was exposed outside the veil, "The true identity of the cultist of the Cult of the End of Everything operating in the territory of Ansu is actually a former nobleman of Typhon, and the value of this news is not a few gold coins that can be measured......"

"No," Gawain shook his head, "there's no point in spreading this now—the negative news is too bizarre, and no one will believe it if you say it, not to mention that now that the two countries are about to fight, at this time, no matter how ugly things can come out of scolding each other, tell the black history of the Typhon nobility from the mouth of an Ansu, do you think anyone will take it seriously?" ”

As soon as Gawain's words fell, an amber popped out of the shadows next to him: "Ansu and Typhon are not serious, they can also make the cultists nervous - such an important secret has been exposed......"

Gawain looked at this half-elf and smiled: "Thinking too much, everyone is out to be a cultist, and they still care about this loss of prestige?" Do you mind if someone says you're a thief? ”

Amber glared: "Mind! I'm all whitewashed now, okay? I'm the chief bodyguard next to the duke! ”

Gawain: "...... Do you play your cards once in a while according to your normal routine?! ”

Melita watched curiously as Gawain and Amber were arguing about their daily life here, but politely did not mix, and only said while they were both taking a breath: "So, Lord Duke, do you have any more questions?" ”

"Yes," Gawain said immediately, "you Mithril Treasury must have a lot of treasures, right?" ”

"Of course, there is a saying that the Mithril Treasury contains half of the world's treasures in any case, and it is precisely because of this huge amount of wealth that the great ones choose us to keep their treasures......"

Gawain interrupted Melita's blowing: "Then do you have any things in your treasury that you can sell?" ”

"It's ......," Melita hesitated, but then smiled, "Of course." There are always treasures that have escaped from their original owners, and there are always treasures that no one cares about, and we are happy to find them a more suitable owner than the price when the price is right. ”

"How do you sell the Eternal Slate?"
