Chapter XVII: The Operation Begins

Early in the morning, Borlando entered the villa dedicated to Miliana, who was already up in bed. This bedroom is very large, and most of the furniture in it is made of rattan style from the southern city-state, which is made of water-invulnerable Rohi magic rattan, and the craftsmanship is intricate and exquisite, and the pieces are very valuable.

Miliana stood naked in front of a large floor-to-ceiling mirror, the warm sunlight streaming in through the side window, outlining the sinuous curves of her body. From behind, the body looks as slim and toned as it was thousands of years ago, and it is so beautiful that it can make men crazy. But if someone sees her front half reflected in the mirror, it will be unappetizing. The encounter with the Sword Tower team when the city of God came almost destroyed her body and her soul returned to the city of God. Thankfully, Dominic and the Sages who followed him were able to defeat those people. Her healing companion pulled her back from the point of physical collapse. She had been recuperating for a month before she was able to walk. And to this day, her strength has not fully recovered.

She pressed her hand lightly against her wound, observing the changes in her chest and abdomen. On her left side, near her heart, there was a scar about the width of a palm, and although it had long been repaired by magic, the red rolled and bumpy muscles still looked shocking. And all her skin, starting from her shoulders, to her entire chest and abdomen, to her thighs, had an unnatural grayish color, and there were many folds and deformations on the surface, which were the result of being burned by the flaming madness of the berserker. Miliana still vividly remembers the sight of the little woman rushing into her arms, burning like the sun. Not only did the madness burn the surface of her skin like flames, but it also seeped into the interior of her body, and if you could see through the internal organs of her body, you would find that they were no less hurt than her skin.

Miliana has thought more than once about ending this body and then reborn from the Divine City, but Dominic, who is in control of the Divine City, will not allow her to do so, because returning to the Divine City and then being reborn again will cause a lot of consumption of her soul, and her strength will be much lower than now.

Miliana held two healing crystals in her hands, glowing white, and roamed back and forth on her body, as a warrior, she could not perform healing magic, it was her use of the Dou Qi Mixed Healing Magic to stimulate her skin, muscles, and organs. Her body trembled violently, this kind of injury had to stimulate her life potential in order to heal slowly, it was a very painful and long process.

After about an hour of treatment, Miliana was already covered in sweat, and a silvery-white fighting aura appeared on her body, and after turning from head to toe, her body had become clean and clean, as if she had taken a bath. However, the lingering pain on her body had not yet dissipated, and her movements could only be slow and gentle.

There was a knock on the door outside, and the voice of a maid rang out through the door: "Mistress Miliana, Your Excellency Borlando has something important to report. Do you need to take him to the study?"

Miliana didn't do anything, but the clothes on the bedside stool floated up one by one and automatically fell onto her. She wore a black high-necked robe, which was tightly wrapped from the neck down, a garment rarely seen in the hot south.

"Let him in. ”

"Yes. ”

After more than ten minutes, there was another knock on the door outside, and it was Borlando who had arrived. The door to the bedroom opens automatically. Borlando saw Miliana standing in front of the window with her back hand.

"Mistress Miriana. Let me report to you on the information I received this morning. ”

Although Borlando had only been working for Miliana for more than ten days, both Miliana and Borlando seemed to be familiar with this process, and she listened quietly to the other party's report. There are not only news from other temples, information from several major forces on the mainland, but also surveillance reports of what her two companions, Polidaro and Agulto, have been doing in the past few days.

Miliana listened to the previous information with a calm interest, but when she talked about her two companions, she was obviously more energetic. When Borlando heard Borlando talk about the sage of Polydaro punishing the merchants and nobles of the city, she asked, "Yesterday, Polydaro condemned a merchant family as blasphemous, confiscated all their property, and executed the merchant's entire family?"

"Yes, the men of Polydaro have scoured the merchant's house with the emblem of the Temple of Wisdom and the priestly robes, and evidence like this is sufficient to prove that this man is a spy sent by the Temple of Wisdom. As for the source of the evidence, no one would need such an explanation. Borlando said with his head down.

"How many are these?"

"It's probably the eighth. ”

"It looks like a good harvest. ”

"Doesn't the lord always like to complain and plead?" said Miliana blandly.

"I'm afraid the city lord is worried that his affairs will be too late. Lord Polidaro's recent focus has been on investigating the castle lord himself. Borlando said.

"Didn't the city lord himself say that he didn't want to move the city lord?

"Supposedly......" Borlandor paused.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I hate being secretive the most. Miliana said.

"It is said that Lord Polidaro privately said that you were too cowardly, and that you did what you did...... It would cost the Temple of Nature the benefits it would have gained. He was ready to reap the maximum benefits for the Temple of Nature. ”

"Hmph, the Temple of Nature, I'm afraid it's for himself. When Miliana sneered, her shoulders shrugged slightly, but the person trembled slightly, the fighting spirit that had just penetrated into the wound had not completely dissipated, and sometimes a small movement would involve the sore spot, which would cause a knife-like pain.

Borlando saw the trembling, swallowed his saliva, and said in a firm tone: "My lord, I also don't think this is appropriate, we need a shepherd and a few dogs to herd our flock, so that after killing these sheep, the next batch of sheep will be raised." Your Excellency, I never say anything nice to those nobles and merchants, but if this is really done by Lord Polidaro, the city will be in chaos, do you want us to be so nervous about the manpower to take care of Sulugaya?"

"So, Borlando, what do you suggest?" Miliana turned and looked at Borlando.
