Chapter Eighty-Eight: Night Talk
Carroston, in Stanlini Castle.
Vivien repeated what her brother Noah had said, "Heretics?"
Noah nodded.
"How is this possible, how could Hale become a heretic?" said Vivien, with a look of complete disbelief on her face.
Noah sighed and said slowly to Vivian, "Vivian, this news was told to my father by the Swordsman of Dara from Kassan's team. ”
"Uncle Darla, but why is that, why don't you bring Hale back?" asked Vivien, curiously.
"The Templar Church is an evil church that has been rooted in the city of Finney for a long time, these heretics believe in demons, and once they join the Templar Church, these people are no longer themselves. Very few have heard of joining the Templar Church and being able to leave. Noah said helplessly to Vivien.
"Why?" asked Vivien, dumbfounded.
After a while, Noah decided to tell Vivien all, and he said, "It is said that when you join the Templar Church, there is an evil ritual to cut your blood, cut off the past, and become a heretic of the Templar Church forever!"
"Well, isn't it okay to bring Hale back?" Vivien vaguely understood.
"Well, if they can bring Hale back, Captain Kasan and they've already brought him back. Noah said in a deep voice.
"But, brother, why can't you bring Hale back?" Vivien was anxious and puzzled.
"The Templar Church is very powerful in Finney City, and it is said that it is secretly supported by the Jun'en Empire. Even Viscount Tam, the lord of Finni City, was helpless against the Templar Church. The power is so great that there are not only many high-level swordsmen, but also several high-level magicians. Noah slowly told what he knew, little by little.
"That'...... Can Hale come back?" Vivien listened to Noah's words, anxious and worried.
"Don't worry, the Swordsman of Dara has already brought a number of people to Finney City, and he will definitely be able to bring Hale back. Noah comforted Vivien, and comforted herself.
On the Karoston border, a group of mercenaries galloped on the trade road, led by the swordsman Darla, after getting Orin's promise, he found a familiar mercenary group, shared the task, and informed in detail about the risks of this mission and the enemies that may be encountered, this is Kassan's instructions, and finally a dozen mercenaries with good skills joined the rescue, and the group immediately set off and rushed to Finney City overnight.
For it is not like when I came back from the city of Finny, where there was a post where the horses could be changed. Dara estimated that the return to Finney City would be much slower, and it would take at least two days and two nights for the group to feel Finney City.
At this time, Dara was particularly envious of the Divine Domain cavalry, because every Divine Domain cavalry had a war horse infused with holy power, and the war horses infused with holy power and ordinary horses were completely two species, ordinary horses, with very poor endurance, ran for an hour, they couldn't stand it, and they had to rest for a long time before they could continue to run. Horses infused with holy power are extremely patient, and with enough water, they can continue to run for hours, and after a short rest, they can continue to run.
After a group of people rode their horses for a while, they found a water source, and after feeding the horses and drinking enough, the group slowly led the horses and continued to the city of Finney.
On the night of early spring, because the moon is far away, there is plenty of light, and the trade road is very quiet, there are no other pedestrians, and the whole trade road is very quiet.
Taking the horses by the hand, Dara said to them, "Walk a little further, and when the horses are rested, we will get on the horses, and when we have arrived at the post station, we will rest, and when the time has come to feed the horses, we will continue our journey early tomorrow morning." ”
"Damn Darla, it's been a long time since my lightning ran like this, and this mission hasn't started yet, so it's not easy. A mercenary with two short swords at his waist complained, drawing a chord from everyone.
"If this job is good, it won't cost 10 gold coins. Darla led the horse and replied helplessly.
"Have you heard of Maple Leaf Manor?" asked one of the mercenaries.
"I've heard, man, that it was Baron Ferrin's estate, and the new owner was said to be a great nobleman of great stature and generosity. ”
"It is said that a few days ago, a full 10 gold coins were given to each of his servants. The envious voice of a mercenary drew a gasp from several mercenaries who didn't know about it.
"Damn, each minion gives 10 gold coins, so isn't that going to give a few hundred gold coins out?"
"You don't know, Boris is in Maple Leaf Manor right now. I heard that he rewarded the gold coins. A mercenary who knew better.
"Boris, that miserly miser, Darla, are they talking about your old purse?"
Dara also showed a hint of envy, nodded and said, "That's right, it's Boris, he followed a good master." ”
"It's really him, when did he become so generous?" said a mercenary who had known Boris before, surprised.
"A few hundred gold coins are nothing, Boris is a great man. Dara said to them lightly.
"Really, tell us, Darra, what kind of person is she?" the mercenaries asked Darra.
"I can't say too much, but it's a big man who is polite even to Viscount Orin when he sees it. Darla shook her head, halfway through.
"Dara, your mouth is really tight, but I heard that a group of magicians came down from the empire, and there was a conflict at the gate of the magic guild at that time, and many people saw it, and a young magician who accompanied Orin's daughter quickly put an end to the dispute, and it is said that it is the owner of Maple Leaf Manor. A magician with inside information guessed.
"So the owner of Maple Leaf Manor is a magician?" several of the mercenaries asked Darra.
Dara hurriedly said, "You guessed it yourself, not me. ”
"I really envy Boris for being able to follow a magician. Some of the mercenaries said enviously.
"Darla, I've already said it anyway, tell us about it, have you seen the owner of Maple Leaf Manor?" asked Dara a mercenary.
After hesitating for a moment, Dara still opened her mouth and slowly said the scene when they met Li Xuan, and Li Xuan had followed them back to Caroston.
After hearing this, everyone suddenly became enlightened.
"It turns out that Viscount Orin's illness was cured by him. Several people said.
"Could it be that Knight Egger's wounds were also healed by him?" asked one of the mercenaries.
Dara shook her head: "I don't know. Perhaps, this adult is mysterious anyway. ”
"Do any of you remember the light of the temple on the night Knight Iger was injured?" asked one of the mercenaries.
As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of boos: "Who will forget such a big thing?" said many people.
"Could it be the owner of Maple Leaf Manor?" the mercenary continued.
"If it's really him, isn't this owner of Maple Leaf Manor a high-level magician?" someone said.
When Dara heard this, she suddenly froze, instantly confirmed this guess, and remembered the gorgeous magic robe that Li Xuan was wearing at that time.
