Chapter 10023 "Abduniyah the Judged
At Veronica's insistence, and Wu Jian did not object, Sylvia could only go out with her reluctantly. He was accompanied by Cosette and Ania, as well as Echo. As for Rebecca, there are a lot of knights here who have been knocked out by Natsu, and she has to take care of them.
"Really, my sister is too willful!"
As she walked down the road, Sylvia still complained. However, Veronica felt very fresh, and her sister, who had always been submissive in front of her, complained to her, which gave her a sense of relief that her sister had grown up, but also a kind of jealousy that her sister had not changed because of her.
In this regard, Veronica couldn't help but become hostile to Wu Jian. Although he won't be charged with a trumped-up crime, he will be called and drunk like a prank.
"Wu Jian, I'm thirsty, you go buy me a thirst-quenching drink."
"Buy it yourself."
Wu Jian didn't dump her at all.
"What? How dare you ignore my orders!? β
"What order!?"
Wu Jian hadn't reacted yet, and Aike was like a cat with its tail stepped on, holding Wu Jian's arm tightly and grinning at Veronica.
"Wu Jian is my servant, he can only listen to my orders! Thou shalt not command him! β
In short, it was a child who wanted to monopolize the owner's favor, Veronica didn't even pay attention to her, just stared at Wu Jian tightly.
"Veronica, I just promised to be your bodyguard. I can make sure you're safe here, but you'll have to do the errands yourself. β
These words, if the ordinary princess had been out of order, would have been out of place a long time ago. However, Veronica is a "Valkyrie", and she has high requirements for others and even more for herself. She will not use her identity to oppress people, and Wu Jian is indeed not her subordinate. She only promised to protect the mission, so she just fell silent.
"Your Highness Veronica, let me do your service."
At this moment, Cosette took over the task in time to avoid Veronica's embarrassment.
However, Veronica is not a pity to let Wu Jian serve as a guard, seeing that she can't find Wu Jian's stubble in this regard, her eyes narrowed. Another idea came to mind.
"The reconstruction of the streets is also on track, and Rebecca is very capable of doing things, so it's a pity that she didn't join my legion. But the most important thing is to reassure the people, so let me go to the church and have a look. β
In this world, the church is still the greatest force, and people always pray after the great tribulation. Veronica said that she wanted to get to know the hearts of the people, and it was not wrong to go there. And they did not doubt him, so they went with her.
People come to St. Verali's Church, but the people who come to this church are usually tourists, and the locals rarely come - even if they really have something to do, they still come to pray. But it's really not a good place to get instruction. Maybe it has something to do with the people enshrined here.
On the altar is a statue of Veraly, who serves the Virgin Rosa. One of the twelve apostles of Maria, she was also endowed with a godhead. But how to say it? Compared to the Virgen Rosa. Maria, it's still a notch off.
However, after coming here, Veronica didn't know what she was stupid about, and even mentioned a lingerie store that she came across on the way to where the girls came.
Ha? Sister, are you okay with your head!? - Sylvia looked at Veronica with a look of hell, this Valkyrie who never took off her armor would mention yì to the lingerie store?
"Sylvia, I am indeed amazed by your maturity. But you and I are still far from ideal! It's not just appearances. Even the inside is important! Yes, girls' intimate clothing is also a Sylvia that can reflect a person's taste. Just put your inner expression out of it! If you disappoint me, I'll pull you back!" β
"Wait a minute, sister, what are you saying out loud here!?"
Sylvia hurriedly looked around (mainly to observe Wu Jian's reaction), but she was not too surprised by Veronica's decision, anyway, this sister often didn't know what nerves to send (from her point of view).
"It's a rare opportunity, so come along, princess of Avalon. If you have a bad taste, you can't do it. Veronica said, looking at Echo.
However, Echo didn't know if she was really hostile to Veronica, but she sensed something and shook her head. But after Veronica whispered something in her ear, she nodded in agreement.
"That's it, it's women's time. We don't need you to be a guard, just stay here and wait for us. β
Veronica declared, and then looked at Aniah.
"You"
"Ania stays." Wu Jian said flatly.
Veronica hesitated slightly, nodded and said, "Okay then, she's your person anyway." β
After they left, Wu Jian, who had nothing to do, left Ania in the church with him. There weren't many people here, but there were dozens of them, some with children.
Wu Jian casually found a place in front and sat down, because he had respect for Veraly, and most of the people who came here were here to travel or rest, so there were fewer people standing and sitting in front of the statue. In front of the statue of Verari, in addition to Wu Jian and Aniya, there was only one girl who was praying.
Although she has been Wu Jian's maid for a while, Ania has always been a little restrained in front of Wu Jian. Standing beside Wu Jian, in order to relieve her tension, she paid attention to the girl who was praying in front of the statue.
"Holy Lady Veraly, please bless me with the child of the Silver Knight in the future."
Burst~~~
Hearing this, Aniah, who was drinking the drink that Cosette bought back (Wu Jian asked to buy enough for so many people), squirted out.
"Ahem, cough, cough"
What the hell is this request!? And Verally is a legal officer, okay, the object of the request is wrong!
Ania frantically tidied up the ground in front of her, and the schoolgirl looked at it.
"Huh? You seem to be"
Oh!
The schoolgirl clapped her palm.
"Aren't you that problem child Wu Jian? I've heard you've been getting close to that Sylvia princess lately. Why, do you come and pray too? Did you come to pray that you wouldn't be dropped out of school? I've heard that Her Highness Veronica is coming, and she won't allow you moths to stay in school, right? β
In the Ansaris State Dragon Riding Academy, there are not a few people who don't like Wu Jian's group, and the arrogant female student in front of him is one of them.
However, Wu Jian also knew that his behavior in the academy was indeed like a moth. So I didn't say anything.
Seeing that Wu Jian had nothing to say, the female student was even more disgusted, and said with a face: "You are too disobedient, and you don't know how to be motivated at all." Alas~, isn't there a good man? Just like the Silver Knight."
The schoolgirl fell into delusion, and the word was almost written on her face.
As one of the people who knows the truth. Ania looked at her very delicately. If you want to talk about the Silver Knight, it generally refers to Sylvia, who was wearing armor at the time, and it can also refer to Wu Jian, who really contributed behind the back. But either way, speaking out will be a blow to the schoolgirl who fantasizes about marrying the Silver Knight.
"You really like Silver Knight, Jessica. Valentine. Wu Jian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Of course, the lord is so-huh? You actually know me? Hehehe, it seems that my noble name has been widely spread, and it will soon reach the ears of that lord, and then"
Seeing that she is about to fall into nymphomaniac again. Suddenly, there was a loud bang overhead.
Rumble!
The ceiling was sprinkled with dust and rubble, and the floor shook from the impact.
"Ahh!!h
The explosion was overhead, and Jessica screamed, instinctively trying to find something to cover, and threw herself into Wu Jian's arms.
Aniah, who didn't know much about what she should do as a maid, didn't care about Wu Jian, and threw herself backwards, dodging the fragments of the ceiling. After that, although she thought of returning to Wu Jian's side, Wu Jian's voice immediately came to her head. Tell her to stay in the crowd for a while.
In the exclamation of the crowd, a huge black shadow fell from the sky. fell in front of Wu Jian.
"Once upon a timeβ"
The huge black shadow was actually a winged lizard, and it was a petite girl standing on the back of the winged lizard who spoke. Pitch-black hair, eyes full of evil thoughts, sparkling eyes. Beneath the highly revealing national costume is a near-brown skin - similar to Aniya.
"The Virgin Villari once saidβ" The woman said in an inexplicably dramatic tone, "'It is sin that should be hated, not man.'" Joke! A fragile heart is the root of all evil. All sinners will die! β
Then, she shook the whip in her hand again: "We are the 'Abdunia' who judged sin!" β
What the!?
Hearing the girl's self-introduction, everyone except Wu Jian exclaimed. Although most of the people here are ordinary people. But I have heard the name of a well-known terrorist with a reward of up to 1 million eker. And they're almost scared to pee - even if it's petite.
Abduniaya was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and looked down at everyone condescendingly: "From now on, you are all our hostages!" As long as you don't act rashly, we won't take your lives!" Conversely...... If anyone dares to resist, don't blame us for catching it and feeding it a full meal! β
"Roar~~"
With Abdunia's drink order. The winged lizard roared in an earth-shattering roar.
"Huh!?"
Jessica let out a mournful roar at the pterodactyl lizard, not knowing if it was bad breath or frightened.
Well?
Because of this mournful cry, Abduniya "noticed" Wu Jian and the others.
"Oh~? I didn't expect there to be such a calm man, or was he paralyzed by fright? β
Abduniah observed for a moment and finally determined that it was the former. And during this time, nine warriors descended from the broken ceiling, all dressed in national costumes and wearing masks that looked like eagles on their faces. The weapons equipped are whips, half-moon knives, knives, and so on, which are customary for mountain peoples.
The nine people looked very confident in Abdunia, and after they came down, they didn't care about Wu Jian and the others, but arranged something around in an orderly manner.
"What's your name, boy?"
Even if there was no other reason, Abduniaya began to be interested in Wu Jian.
"Aren't you very clear?" Wu Jian asked with a smile.
Hearing this, for a moment, Abduniya showed a hint of wolf bèi. But from her point of view, it is impossible for Wu Jian to understand her identity no matter what.
"Sounds like you're a famous person. But among the nobility. I haven't heard of any well-known men. I'm only here to ask the Iron Valkyrie for advice. β
"Her Royal Highness Veronica!?"
Jessica in Wu Jian's arms exclaimed, and she finally regained her composure. I have to say that although she seems a little nymphomaniac, she is also full of courage and dares to look at Abdunia. It also seems calmer.
But Wu Jian was still very calm, so calm that Abduniya was a little nervous - did he have any hole cards?
Abduniah looked around, and what was noteworthy was the brown skin that mingled with the crowd - but even if it was a mountain man, there was nothing strange about it, and not all of them were terrorists.
At this time, Jessica also noticed that although there were nearly 100 people, the crowd were ordinary people. They were all huddled together under the threat of heavily armed terrorists, and because there were only nine terrorists. For the sake of demonstration, the tone and actions inevitably became rough.
"Stop it!"
While a small child was crying because she had fallen, Jessica stood up.
The other nine terrorists didn't react in particular except for a glance, but Abduniah looked at Jessica in surprise.
"Abdunia, let them all go, and I'll be your hostage!" Jessica said, patting her chest.
"Let them all go?" Abdunia's voice asked, a sarcastic smile on her face, "Do you know what I'm going to do?" β
"Hmph, don't underestimate meβJessica. Valentine! You are taking hostages to threaten Lord Veronica to achieve your ulterior conspiracy! But I also sue you. Lady Veronica is not going to compromise with terrorists because of that! β
Listening to Jessica's words, Abdunia thought seriously for a while. Finally affirmed Jessica's words.
"It's true that the iron-blooded Valkyrie isn't someone who gives in lightly, but so what?"
Abduniah snapped her fingers and saw one of the terrorists set up something like a camera around her - the same technology is available in this world.
"Do you want to make the majority aware of the live broadcast in order to force Her Highness Veronica? Hmph, what a stupid terrorist! β
"Oh? What does this mean? Abdunia's eyes narrowed, revealing a little chill.
"Hmph"
Obviously, I was scared too. But Jessica forced herself to hold on.
"That's why I told you to let these people go, and I'm enough to have one hostage! I'm a well-known local nobleman, and I don't know how much weight I have more than a hundred commoners! If it were me, Veronica would have to worry too, and I would cooperate with you! β
Truly. A nobleman is much more expensive than a hundred commoners. Veronica could not care about a hundred commoners, but she also had to worry about the nobles, especially if the nobles were also local tycoons. Although it is more important to say that one nobleman plus a hundred commoners has more weight, a cooperative nobleman is much more useful than those hundred commoners.
Jessica's appearance not only surprised Abdunia, but also made Wu Jian look at her differently - such a performance was unexpected.
But she didn't realize that Abdunia's purpose, although it was diverted, was definitely not to threaten Veronica.
Abdunia looked at Jessica with a smile and waved at the two terrorists: "Noble? We've never heard of any Valentine's house. Let's appreciate your bravery, so let's give you an important task! Arrest her! β
The two terrorists came over, but at this time Wu Jian spoke.
"Abdunia, don't overdo it."
Wu Jian said in a commanding tone, speaking as if he was behind the scenes, and even made the two terrorists stop.
"Huh~~?" Abduniaya raised her head and looked at Wu Jian with contempt: "Who do you think you are?" The man who deserves my attention doesn't exist at all, no, there is a person worth caring about recently, and you call him the Silver Knight in this city, right? β
Silver Knight!?
Jessica's heart moved, and there seemed to be an increase of anticipation in her heart - isn't this the time for heroes to appear?
Wu Jian still didn't react.
Seeing this, Abdunia's eyes turned, a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she looked at Wu Jian and said, "Huh? Speaking of which, you are not simple, can you still be so calm in front of us, is it possible that your name is Wu Jian? β
"Why do you know Wu Jian's name!?" Jessica looked at Abdunia in amazement.
"Hahahaha, I see! No wonder you can be so calm in front of us, it turns out that you are the Silver Knight who really stopped the corpse gray dragon! β
Because the Silver Knight launched by the student union is a hero who stops the corpse gray dragon, and that set of armor is also made by Echo, then it is not an exaggeration to say that it is Wu Jian. Abdunia, who knew the inside story of the matter, also called Wu Jian by this name, intending to show his mystery.
W-What!?
Wu Jian still didn't react, but Jessica looked like a hell and was completely stunned.
But Wu Jian's appearance surprised Abdunia, she told the inside story that only a few people knew, why could he still stay calm? Shouldn't she be horrified at this time to ask why she knew about this?
"Ah, it's Veronica who sued you."
Wu Jian looked directly into Abdunia's eyes, as if he had seen through her, and his eyes were so calm that she was afraid. (To be continued......)
