Chapter 21: The Resurrected Knight

() "Bang"!

The door was slammed shut from the inside. Please remember the URL of this site: . There was a sound of "ping-pong" from outside the door, and it seemed that there was already chaos outside.

"Is he okay alone? He's still a kid. "At this moment, Julian is very worried about leaving the torch tree outside, that young man who has not grown all his hair, does not look like he is very capable of fighting, how can he deal with the four fierce harpies alone?

The beech tree said to Julian, "Don't look at this boy's young age, he is quite a strong man. Maybe he couldn't take down the four-headed harpy by himself, but those monsters couldn't hurt him in the slightest. He was rightly entrusted with the task of pinning down the enemy. ”

Seeing that the beech tree had such a positive attitude when he spoke, and that the others had no objection to it, Julian Torch Tree's abilities were recognized, and he was overly concerned. After calming down, Julian looked up.

The hall on the first floor of this small building made of paulownia wood is unpretentious, except for a few small stools, and on the opposite side of the door, a narrow staircase winds its way to the second floor.

"It seems that this small building has not been built much. Julian smelled a strong smell of paulownia wood and came to this conclusion.

"That's right. In October last year, Apple Tree and I saw the Central Church transporting a large number of logs to this back mountain, and these two small buildings were temporarily erected at that time. "Beech Tree Road.

"Hmph! The erection of these two houses to imprison two people was premeditated by the Central Church. The thief said disdainfully.

"Please, I'll talk about the Central Church later. Can you be sure that Frey is locked up there?" Julian quickly interrupted the thief and asked him the most important question.

"I can't say for sure, but according to common sense, the fourth floor is the most vulnerable to the surveillance of the Liaowang Tower, so she is most likely on the fourth floor. "Carrying the man who has been rescued.

"Let's go. Selina didn't say much, but before she could finish speaking, she had already set off for the stairs before everyone else.

Others followed. Through the narrow and rickety staircase of Guò, a group of five people reached the second floor. There are four more beds than the first floor, some of which are women's supplies, and on the wooden walls are three or four sets of women's armor, as well as swords and shields.

"It seems to be where the female soldier guarding Miss Frey lived. "Beech Tree Road.

It was certain that this was the women's dormitory, but there was no evidence that the female soldiers who lived there were to guard Frey, but Julian was willing to believe it, because in doing so, he was one step closer to Frey.

When they tried to continue to the third floor, they found that the stairs leading to the third floor were locked.

"Give me a moment. "Before the coconut tree went to lock the door, he took out the wire and made it in the same way. As a thief, unlocking all kinds of locks is what he is good at.

Just when the coconut tree was busy, there was a sudden sound of "uh-uh-uh......".

It was a series of incoherent whimpering sounds from the man lying behind the cedar tree.

"He's awake!" said Beech Tree.

Cedar immediately came to a bed and carefully unloaded the man behind him on the bed.

At this time, the man's hood was pulled down, and Julian finally saw his true face: the man was about 40 years old, with long and messy hair, but it did not look like he had a habit of growing long hair, but because he had not been tidy for a long time, with a circle of stubble at the bottom of his chin, and a thin and haggard face, but there was a faint sense of restrained heroism between his eyebrows. "Who the hell is he, and why do I think he looks familiar?" said Julian, who confirmed that he had never seen this man before, and he felt more and more strange.

"What do you think, Knight Mano?" asked Cedar, crouching in front of the man.

The man did not answer his words, but swept around with a blank look.

"How so?" said the beech tree, a little distressed.

"Probably because the medicine has not been lifted, his consciousness has not recovered as quickly. Serena replied.

"That's not what I'm talking about, according to the medicinal properties of those drugs, he can't wake up so quickly, and now that he's awake, the guards outside are also awake?"

"Perhaps the paladin's physique is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and he has a strong resistance to drugs. Selina tried to think in an optimistic direction.

Julian, who was standing on the side, sorted out his thoughts, and from the conversations of several people, Julian had roughly guessed the identity of this mysterious man: "Freelancer" William Mano!

A former paladin of the Templar Order, he left 13 years ago on a mission with another paladin due to dissent to the Central Church, but over the years he traveled extensively and left a great reputation among the people. Although William Mano had left before Julian joined the Templars, his portrait still hung on the walls of the Paladin's Hall, and Julian had seen what he looked like 13 years ago, so it felt familiar. In other words, William Mano is probably long gone. Just last August, Julian, who was on the top floor of the Tower of Seven Sins, was under house arrest like a caged bird, but he knew everything about the outside world through the power of the tower. One night, martial law was imposed in the Holy City, and most of the soldiers were mobilized, causing a storm in the city, and for the events of that night, the Central Church claimed that there were infidels infiltrating the Holy City in an attempt to destroy it, but Julian knew quite well that it was not a "heretic" at all, but that the Paladin William Mano, who had been away for 12 years, returned to the Holy City and accidentally discovered the secrets of the Tower of the Seven Sins, so the Pope ordered to hunt down and destroy the mouth. Eventually, William was killed by another paladin.

Julian understood that this was the usual method of the Central Church, and that William might not have died at all, he had just been captured alive. This explains why the Woods would risk rescuing this man, and if he was indeed the "Freelancer" William Mano, then he knew no less information about the Tower of Seven Sins than Julian himself.

"Mano Knight, Mano Knight......" Cedar continued to call to the man.

The man's gaze stopped wandering, and finally fixed on the cedar tree. "You, you...... Who is it?" the man struggled to spit out a few words.

"We're here to save you. ”

"Help me?"

"That's right. We have heard of your glorious deeds as a 'freelancer', and over the years you have worked tirelessly to uphold justice, punish the good and the good, and save the needy, and the hypocrites of the Central Curia will only talk empty words. We know that you discovered the conspiracy of the Pope and the Central Church last year, but you were persecuted for it, so we tried our best to get you out, just to spread the conspiracy of the Pope and the Central Church to the world, so that the world can see the true face of those hypocrites. "The merchant Shanshu knows the art of speaking, and he first praises William to make the other party feel good, and then he says his intentions, which is easier for the other party to accept.

"In other words, you want to deal with the Pope?" Perhaps most of the potion had passed, and William had spoken quite clearly by this time.

"Exactly. Cedar smiled and nodded, "We'll fight alongside you, and so will your old friends." ”

At this time, only to hear a "bang", the coconut tree threw the unlocked door lock on the ground, wiped the sweat on his head and said: "Finally opened, this lock seems simple but is actually very complicated, and it takes me a lot of effort." It looks like there's really something terrible up there. ”

"Knight Mano, we still have someone to rescue, please come with us. Cedar stretched out his hand to invite.

"Wait a minute. William didn't immediately agree, but pointed to the waist of the cedar tree, "Borrow your long sword." ”

"Sword! ”

William took the initiative to ask for a weapon, indicating that he would be involved in the next battle, and with the help of a paladin, it would definitely reduce a lot of pressure to fight out of the heavy encirclement of those harpies outside. Without thinking about it, Cedar pulled the sword out of its scabbard and handed it to William.

The resurrected knight William Mano took the long-lost sword and made an unexpected move:

With everyone's eyes watching, William stabbed the blade into the heart of the cedar tree.
