Chapter 114: Witch Hunter Residency

For the witch hunters to enter Novigre on a larger scale, even the beggars on the side of the road noticed a strange atmosphere, from time to time there were witch hunters wearing brown trench coats, four-cornered hats, and crossbows on their backs through the streets, and some people noticed that on the walls of the street, in addition to the original unattended recruitment notices and some advertisements such as theatrical performances, there were suddenly many more wanted notices for witches.

However, most of the inhabitants were not interested, and during the years of Chape's reforms, the so-called evil witches were not even as feared as monsters such as water ghosts and ghouls outside the city, and many rumors of witch murder were eventually found to be fabricated by some criminals to cover up their crimes.

Many of them have turned to alchemists who live in the city when they are sick, and many magicians like Triss will complete small commissions for the people of the city in order to make a living.

If it weren't for the fear of their actions, many people would want to make excuses for these casual witches and point to their wives or mothers and suspect witches to drive them out of the city, and there have even been quarrels and even fights in some places.

This is clearly not good news for the newly appointed head of the witch hunters.

"This group of untouchables is willing to be in the company of evil!"

The iron gloves slammed on the table, shaking the water in the nearby cups. Sunlight shone in through the window on the side, shining right on the red hanging flag that had evolved from the flag of the Knights of the Rose in the past, like a bright red flame, "No wonder Manji's idiot hasn't completed His Majesty's plan here for so long, it's all ChapΓ©'s bastard, when did the Church of Eternal Flame allow a group of aliens and evil magic?" ”

"Calm down, Knight Kelus, you were so impulsive when you were still in the Knights, and you haven't grown at all after all these years." Across the table, Edmund sat in a chair, his hand touching the carving on the armrest, "That's why His Majesty the King sent us, isn't it?" You don't even know how much has changed since the notoriously strict Lord Chape, who used to watch the filthy aliens being skinned and cramped, now that a third of a good city is made up of those aliens. ”

"Maybe it's just that this guy is old and confused?"

"No, you're thinking too simply, maybe our Lord Cha Pei has already been replaced, and he has hidden it from everyone." Edmund pushed several documents over.

"Eternal Flame is above, this, a filthy shapeshifter has replaced Lord Chape? How is this possible, that all the people in the church are blind? ”

"You underestimate these scarce creatures, their disguise is so powerful, if it weren't for their hard work, His Majesty would even want to recruit some shapeshifters as spies, heh, Your Majesty would dare to think about it."

For a moment, the room fell silent.

After a while, Edmund seemed to suddenly remember something, and continued.

"By the way, I heard that Nick was sent to deal with the guy who killed Manji last night, and the famous executioner in the Knights in the past was thrown to a garbage side as a killer, he is the worst of the mess, right?"

It was obvious that Edmund's Nick was the Yin-Yang Face who broke into the tavern last night, and from his tone, he could tell that he had a lot of confidence in Yin-Yang Nick, but he didn't know that Nick was tied up and sent to the island as soon as he left on Temple Island today.

"He seems to have missed, and the tavern is open as usual today." A witch hunter leaning against a pillar played with the hat in his hand, and instead of wearing the old knight's armor like Edmund, nor the big trench coat of the witch hunters, he was dressed more like a merchant, "I heard that some of Hawthorne II's men were brought out of the tavern early this morning. ”

"Looks like I've underestimated that tavern?"

"You say, no matter how stupid Manji is, it is impossible for ordinary people to easily move the leader of a witch hunter." The man glanced at Edmund casually, "The wine they drink there alone is not at all what ordinary people can drink, and I dare say that His Majesty has never drunk that magical cocktail." ”

As he spoke, the man's eyes narrowed as if he were reminiscing.

"Then we have to organize a big operation, how can those who infringe on the authority of the Order let it go unpunished! This leaves our majesty behind. ”

"Ahem, we're not a Knights for a long time, Lord Aemond, and witch hunters are far more infamous than majestic......

"You ......" was quite a headache for this guy Edmund, who was always at odds with him, but behind this person was a big man in the church headquarters, and he couldn't kick him out if he wanted to, so he simply ignored this guy and turned to Calles, who was sitting opposite, and asked, "How is the replacement temple guard doing?" ”

"It's not going well at all, Chappei didn't summon the temple guards in the city back to Temple Island as ordered by His Majesty the King, and many of our actions in the city today have been blocked by them."

"This false bishop looks like he's ready to tear his face, I really don't know where he got the confidence, is he really not afraid of death?" Edmund's face became more and more gloomy, he didn't expect that his work would not go well when he first came here, which made him feel very embarrassed, "Have we gathered our members?" ”

"Because the operation in the city is not going well, I have already asked them all to return to the station first."

At this moment, there was a commotion outside, and several people in the room were wondering, when a witch hunter pushed the door in, "My lord, the station is surrounded by a group of temple guards!" ”

Outside the gate of the station, Cha Pei ordered the temple guards to surround this place and disperse the nearby residents, then wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked back at Zhang Lin who was standing on the wall, "These are my henchmen, so nothing happens here will be spread." ”

"Ah, you didn't ask people to do it." Zhang Lin looked at the witch hunter station, which was already a little chaotic because he found that he was surrounded by the temple guards, and sighed, "Just this little thing, you all come along, don't you need to look at the store?" ”

Just by Zhang Lin's side, all his own characters were there, and even Ciri came to join in the fun.

"Shall we just clear the scene?" Mia pulled out a small remote control and was about to summon the Warlord.

"No, it's too much."

If you really use the War Lord to bomb it, the whole city will be alarmed, and then Cha Pei will be troublesome to explain, and it will easily affect nearby buildings.

I heard a loud shout from the door of the witch hunter's station: "Bastard! Cha Pei, if you want to find death, I will fulfill you! ”
