139, Cleopatra
The Assassin League and another unknown faction finding Talos seemed to have turned on some mysterious switch, and a third force soon appeared in front of Talos.
On the last day of the 21st, the third day after Talos and Annistola left Marven, they met with a standard squad from the Temple of Order and Knights.
An archbishop, a paladin, and a grand knight, all of whom were fourth-order, were the same three people they had met on Mosanhoek Island at the beginning.
Quite a luxurious lineup.
"Mr. Nepton, Jr., meet again. The paladin, who was gentle and polite on the surface, but actually had a bad temper, greeted with a smile, "It turns out that last time in the Dragon Vein, we should insist on searching the spatial ring, otherwise there would be no such thing as today, what do you think?"
When he learned that the missing Frost Crown was on Talos about five weeks ago, not to mention the already irascible and reckless Grand Knight Anthony, even Archbishop Gallen, who had always been calm and calm, was dizzy and regretted by Cardinal Jude's bombshell news.
The treasure from the Illuminati was once in front of their eyes, but they were missed due to various changes.
If...... If only they hadn't been fooled by Maeve's illusion in the first place, the three of them thought with both regret and self-reproach.
"Ah, by the way, the mermaid princess Maeve who pretended to be a god last time to hinder our actions has recently disappeared, I wonder if little Mr. Nepton has heard of it?"
Without waiting for Talos to respond, she looked at the bishop again, and it was obvious that she didn't really want to talk to the four-armed Naga, but simply let out a bad breath because of what happened last time.
"Archbishop Annistola Box, Archbishop of the Pleasure faction, I have heard of you, pious servant of His Highness Mutea. I don't know if the Love Church knows that you're secretly hooking up with Tarlos, a member of the Illuminati, it looks like I should write a letter to Paphos V of the Grand Temple of Mero, and maybe get a compliment for my sincere advice. ”
Talos was so angry that the paladin didn't give him a chance to speak and refute at all, and the chatter was several long sentences at once.
No matter how politely she smiled, she couldn't hide the sarcasm and smugness in her eyes, and now, she was slandering Annistora's eyes in front of Talos.
Where does she get her confidence?
Annistora, in terms of vision and taste, did not know how many times the paladin: the paladin was blinded by a treasure and could not see any merit in Talos, and the bishop not only took a fancy to him among the thousands of young talents in the main material plane, but had recently begun to discuss with Talos such esoteric philosophical topics as "the beauty of appearance and the beauty of the mind".
Well, Talos admits that Anne Dora may not be well-intentioned, but he wants to make it clear that subjective results and objective facts are not simply confused.
However, just as Talos was about to fight back with words, Annistola held him back.
The Bistress stepped forward and stood in front of Talos, a smile that was anything but friendly on her face, her gaze scanning back and forth over the paladin's armor-wrapped body, and only speaking slowly as the other man's brow furrowed and furrowed.
"I guess you must be very lonely, this ...... Well, unknown paladin. Sorry, I've never heard of you. Of course, I'm not saying you're mediocre and nameless. ”
She also didn't give the paladin a chance to refute: "Ah, I'm sorry, how did I say what was in my heart, it's really ......"
Annistola pretended to be very surprised, but to be fair, the heroine's acting skills were really not good, so she looked a little, which was completely different from the usual elegance and modesty.
The heroine covered her mouth and tried desperately not to let herself laugh, but of course she failed.
"My fault, but as a cheerful saint of the Church of Love, I am obligated to kindly remind the clergy of the Church of the Brethren when they are in trouble, that you now look like those poor women going through menopause, with a bad complexion, distraught, irritable, tantrums, and nervousness—by the way, no need to thank me. ”
"Alexandra, there's no need to talk to them—"
Anthony, the great knight on the side, couldn't wait, he drew his weapon and pointed his sword at Talos, a little fierce.
In his opinion, the pre-war verbal confrontation was the most boring thing in the world, and if it could be resolved quickly by force, why bother.
"Shut up!"
The paladin named Alexandra ignored Anthony, who was almost enraged by Annistora.
She stepped forward and made eye contact with Annistora, and the bishop, not to be outdone, stepped forward as well.
The two are both fourth-order,-for-tat, and imposing, but the three men of Talos, Anthony and Galen are reduced to background boards.
"As a priest of God, when you meet Talos, a member of the Illuminati, instead of sanctioning him, he secretly hooks up, indulges his desires, and indulges wantonly, which is your first crime. "It is the second crime for the clergy of the other Church to ignore it, to reflect on themselves, to insult when other clergy point out mistakes." ”
"Today, standing on the land of the Rhine Kingdom, if you are an enemy of the Temple of Knights for the sake of Talos and Order, I will behead you with the long sword in my hand, and it will not be considered a violation of the rules of the Church of the Gods!" Speaking of the latter, Alexandra almost said in a loud voice, "Annistora, you don't want to delay your future in the Church of Love because of a blasphemous of the Illuminati. ”
"No matter how playful Anne is, it's also an internal affair of our Pleasure Faction, and it's not your turn to worry, little girl from the Temple of Order and Knights. ”
Just as the two women were nervously confronting each other, a slightly hoarse female voice came from a distance.
It's just a short sentence, but it has a magical magic that makes people's hearts ripple, and Talos, who has [Silver Jade] on his body, feels this very deeply.
"Let's leave first. ”
Annis Dorala pulled Talos and flew east.
Both of them are fourth-order professionals, so they naturally have the ability to fly, but Talos has never flown since he was promoted to the fourth order.
One reason was that he had never had a chance, and the other reason was that he thought it was too stupid for Naga to be flying through the air with a tail in tow.
But now that he is on the run, he can't help complaining about this.
The three of Order and the Knight Temple did not intercept the two of Talos, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't, a huge coercion extended from afar and fell on them.
The other party didn't mean to hurt them, but they didn't want to do anything else.
When Talos and Annistola disappeared into the sky, a graceful figure slowly approached from afar, she looked like a noblewoman in her thirties and forties, but she was more graceful and beautiful than ordinary noblewomen.
Every look, every action, is a desire to breathe, exuding a unique temperament precipitated over the years, charming and moving.
Among the three people of Order and the Temple of Knights, Paladin Alexandra, who had just been taunted by Annistora, was the first to come back to her senses, after all, women are naturally immune to women.
Therefore, she did not miss the sound of her colleague Anthony swallowing saliva in anger.
Alexandra had no reason to blame Anthony, and even she had to admit that the woman in front of her was a peerless stunner, and no normal man could be indifferent after seeing her.
It's just that she rummaged through the information about the Pleasure Party in her mind, but she didn't find the identity of the other party, which is not normal.
"Greetings to you, Lady Patra, I didn't expect us to be here to see you. ”
Or Archbishop Galen's words swept away Alexandra's confusion, Cleopatra, Abigail Patra, it was actually her!
In fact, it wasn't just her who was shocked, and Galen didn't expect that an operation against Talos would involve the Pleasure Pie, not only that, but also meet the person they might never see in their lifetime, Cleopatra Abigail.
In the ancient dragon language, the name Abigail means "the joy of the gods", and the lady in front of her lives up to her name.
She was a cheerful priest and queen of Camlen, and her romances, court histories, and legends are still recounted in one version after another.
It's just that it was 800 years ago, and Kahellen, who was once able to compete with the Pahlavi Kingdom, has long been history, and two principalities were born in the original land, the largest territory in the east was later annexed by the Golden Empire, which is today's Haut-Carlo Province, and Cleopatra, who was famous and caused the demise of a kingdom, was also lost after a war.
Only a small number of people know that Abigail was promoted to the fifth rank and became a cardinal in the seventeenth year after returning to the Grand Temple of Mero.
After Anthony and Alexandra compared the woman in front of them with the amorous Cleopatra in history, they suddenly understood that the other party was a cardinal hidden by the Pleasureists.
Abigail smiled and nodded, but the words that came out made the three of them frown: "Before the New Year, the Temple of Order and Knights will stop all actions against Talos, and Anne needs him." ”
"Your Excellency—"
The shrewd Archbishop Galen had already guessed why Annistola and Talos were together, but that was a matter for the Church of Love, and it was impossible for them to make concessions to the Pleasure Sect with the Temple of Knights.
What's more, retrieving the Frost Crown from Talos is an oracle!
"Don't worry, I'll go with you to the Grand Temple of Audrey in Carthalore and speak with Victor I personally. Speaking of which, Victor is still my descendant, and he should still satisfy my great-great-great-great...... Grandmother's. ”
As high-ranking members of the church, the three of them knew that the full name of Pope Victor I, Victor Cleo, had nothing to do with the royal family name Patra of the original kingdom of Kahelen, and unfortunately, the surname of a powerful minister who had a very ambiguous relationship with Cleopatra in history was Cleo.
Unfortunately, Victor I's hometown was none other than the province of Upper Carlo.
