Chapter 266: Betrayers will also be betrayed

Escorted by six paladins, Alan Linville walked down the main road to the temple area, thinking repeatedly in his mind about how to phrase the High Priest of Dawn to prove to the High Priest that the Shadow Thief could be the most powerful tool for the Holy Father of Loshanda to better rule over Am.

Just like the previous Amm regime, the Shadow Thieves Guild is indispensable to the Council of Six.

Only by making the merchants think that they have privileges in Amm will they be more active in amassing wealth, so the Council of Six has established laws that protect merchants on the surface, and has always claimed to value the interests of merchants above all.

Otherwise, the merchants knew that they did not have the power to keep the wealth in their hands, so how could they run in vain to make money?

But in reality, the merchants did not have special privileges, and the nobles, mages, and priests of the temple who wanted to punish a merchant privately had to do so through the shadow thief, and then pretend to arrest the shadow thief who assassinated the merchant and put it on the criminals.

In this way, both the disobedient merchant was killed, the gold he had accumulated was looted, and the hatred was skillfully diverted away from the council.

The capital of merchants, the country of merchants, is only superficial, and the six-member council system only seems to be democratic.

Without the shadow thief acting as a thug and carrying the black cauldron, the merchants will see through this trick.

After pondering, Ayron suddenly realized that the paladins had not escorted him to the temple of Losanda and that they were walking in the direction of the Knights of the Most Ardent Heart.

"Wait!" Alan Linville stopped and said coldly, "Where are you taking me?" ”

The captain of the paladin had an inexplicable smile on his face: "Sir Lynville, don't be nervous, there are a few old noble friends who want to meet you. ”

Alan Linville had many aristocratic friends, and he must have happily gone and had a great time with them.

But now, the Shadow Lord's heart sank suddenly, and he realized that this patrol was not the Knights of the Dawn of the Temple of Loshanda, but the Knights of the Burning Heart formed by the children of the local nobles of Am.

The members of the Knights of the Warmest Heart are not clergy, they are mostly young people of noble origin, and they believe in the holy warriors of Tyre, Heim, and Thom.

"No, it's urgent, I must see the High Priest immediately." Ayran shook his head and said, "I want ......"

The Captain of the Holy Warrior said with a cold face, "Sir Linville, you'd better go with us to meet a few old friends and explain what you want to report to the High Priest of Dawn." They all want to see you, but you're nowhere to be seen since the Six Knights took over Am, which worries the friends. ”

The dagger on his waist touched by the shadow lord's hand, and he had already figured out what these strange holy warriors wanted to do.

Most of those old aristocratic friends were aristocratic friends who had asked Alan Linville for help before.

As for what helped?

For example, a young and merry paladin has a love affair with a beautiful girl from a slum area, the paladin thought that it was something that could be passed with a few gold coins, but the girl took the lie of the paladin when he was acting on the scene seriously, thinking that he could marry into a noble family and pestered endlessly.

Another example is that a noble son falls in love with the daughter of a wealthy businessman, but the beautiful woman already has a fiancΓ©.

That's where the shadow thief comes into play.

……

Alan Linville helped many impulsive aristocratic lads solve many problems, and he recorded the process of these help in detail and made an account book, of course, in the hope that the young nobles would grow up and inherit the family business, so that they could pay off the debts they owed when they were young.

"Go tell my friends." "I am not telling them a secret to the High Priest of the Dawn, it makes no sense for me to denounce them, please rest assured that I have forgotten those things before, and I will never mention them!" ”

The purge of the High Priest of Dawn is about to begin, and in addition to the people and shadow thieves, there are also young nobles who have been tainted in the past.

No one knows how severe the High Priest's purge will be, and whether it will involve the tainted aristocratic youth, until it really begins.

But everyone knows that the High Priest of Dawn is a serious, serious, and non-favoritist person, and there are also conflicts between the foreign and local knights, and it is still being debated whether the local faction or the foreign faction will dominate the Ammu Kingdom in the future.

There is no guarantee that these stains will not be the target of attack!

And the person who knows these stains is Alan Linville.

Going to the Luoshanda Temple late at night, wanting to meet the High Priest of Dawn and tell the High Priest of Dawn, how could the young nobles who had ghosts in their hearts not associate this matter with themselves?

In fact, Alan's aristocratic friends had been looking for him for a long time, and in this turbulent period, when the theocracy had replaced the Council of Six, it was impossible for this group of nobles to be less careful and try to eradicate all the filth they had done in the past.

After the Knights entered the city, the nobles already knew that the Shadow Thieves Guild had completed its historical mission and was included in the death list.

Alan Linville, the hooligan leader who sold the title of viscount by donating gold coins, was never regarded as the nobles' own man, and now that times have changed, the past should be buried, and no one wants his life more than Linville's friends.

"I still met those friends with these words, and you can say them yourself." The captain of the holy warrior sneered: "I just do what I am told, as long as I bring you to them, a large amount of gold will go into my pocket, and I will also get promoted." ”

"Damn idiot!" Ai Lang gritted his teeth and said, "I want to report to the High Priest of Dawn that the people are planning an uprising, and it has nothing to do with the selfishness of those people!" ”

The Shadow Lord didn't care about keeping secrets and confiding the truth when he saw the High Priest of Dawn again, he knew that this group of holy warriors was entrusted by the nobles, if he didn't persuade them to let him go and be taken away by them, the end would probably be assassinated, and let him take those secrets to the realm of the dead!

"Hahaha......" The captain of the paladin leaned back with a smile: "I used to think that the Lord of the Shadow Thieves was such a great character, but I didn't expect it to be so clumsy to make up a lie, you might as well say that the kobolds in the sewers are gathering a large army, and they are about to counterattack the surface world and establish a kobold kingdom." ”

"The populace got Bredrow's support and got a batch of wands, with which they intended to rebel......"

"Please keep making it up." The captain of the paladin looked at Alan with a smile: "Do you think that my knowledge of magic is so lacking that I don't know that wands are not available to everyone?" ”

A sense of absurdity rose in Alan Linville's heart, he had thought that after befriending the nobles and becoming a member of the nobles, life would be different.

However, after working hard all his life, nothing has changed, his so-called pursuit of fate is just a dream, if you want to become a nobleman, the best way is to be born a nobleman.

And now, he has betrayed the class from which he came, only to be eliminated by the class he wants to turn to.
