Chapter Twenty-Six: The Inner Ghost

The defeat of the black-clad assassin seemed to be a foregone conclusion, and Rob suddenly said to the girl beside him, "You don't seem to be worried about the safety of your companion?"

THE LATTER SNORTED COLDLY, SHE WAS NOW A LITTLE AFRAID OF SOMEONE'S TERRIFYING INSIGHT, EVEN IF SHE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING, THE OTHER PARTY SEEMED TO BE ABLE TO DEDUCE A LOT FROM HER REACTION, 8 XIAO SAID?8XS'COM

"Actually, I've always been curious, how did you two sneak into the Earl's Palace? That assassin won't say it, you are just a fifth-order knight, you don't have any stealth skills at all, although tonight's banquet is mainly young people, but many of them are the heirs and quasi-heirs of the major families in the south, any one of these people is a very serious matter, so tonight is definitely the most heavily guarded night in the Earl's Palace, in this case, you can still appear here, then there is only one possibility. After that, Rob thought for a moment, "One of those two eighth-order paladins is one of yours?"

Although the female assassin was still pursed her lips, the horror in her eyes could not be hidden.

D'Ardarion suddenly said, "No wonder you know about the existence of the Inquisition, tsk, eighth-order paladin, this identity is barely enough to be a high-level member of the church, plus he has been a guard by Moteris's side, so he will more or less understand the things he has done in the dark, but unfortunately, you ghost companions are now afraid that they are going to be in danger.?" ??? U8??? .?U?8?X?S`COM”

The female assassin whined, clearly disagreeing with the other party's claims.

"Do you want to know why I say that?" said the head of the Wizards' Guild, "because I've already seen which of these two paladins is your accomplice, and I have bad news for you here. ”

Mortellis had come to the Earl's Court tonight for a banquet and had brought with him the two eighth-order paladins assigned to him by the temple, the younger paladin was fighting the assassin at the moment, while the other paladin, who was about fifty years old, was standing beside the old bishop.

Until then, he had been silent, no matter how fierce the battle in front of him was, as if it had nothing to do with him.

He was like a stone statue, his bronzed face showed no expression from beginning to end, and he left his companion alone to face the assassin, he only stayed by the old bishop's side, and his judgment proved to be very accurate, the latter was indeed capable of taking down the opponent in front of him alone, but just as the younger paladin was about to take control of the situation, he suddenly moved, who had not reacted all the time. ?? U 8 Small says??? .?U?8 X?S`COM

The latter lifted his foot and took a light step forward.

The black-clothed assassin's pupils contracted suddenly, no, the other party's step was not towards him, that guy's target was actually his back to his companion who was concentrating on fighting the enemy!

Seeing that the opposing camp suddenly turned against the water, the black-clothed assassin was not happy, especially when he saw the older paladin with an expressionless face and stabbed the long sword in his hand into the back of the paladin who was fighting with him, he did not hesitate to give up resisting the latter's sword that slashed at his head, put the dagger in his hand over, desperately trying to stop this despicable sneak attack for his opponent.

Seeing this scene, D'Addarion sighed, "It's still too young, if he didn't block this sword, your fellow paladin might not die, but now ......"

All this happened in the light of light, and the guests present were all stunned by this sudden mutation, and most of them had not had time to figure out what had happened in this short period of time, first another paladin who had been paddling before next to Moteris suddenly burst out and attacked his companion, and the stranger thing was still to come, the black-clothed assassin on the killer's side actually sacrificed himself to save the opponent who was fighting him!

As if sensing something, the long sword in the young paladin's hand finally stopped less than half an inch away from the black-clad assassin's head, and did not cut down, and at this moment, the latter's dagger was almost reaching the knight's sword of another paladin.

The black-clothed assassin roughly estimated the distance and speed between the two sides, and knew that he should be able to stop the scimitar before it touched the paladin's body, but when he looked up, he saw the mockery in the eyes of the other party, who had not been emotionless.

The next moment, the attacking paladin's body flickered, and it disappeared from the eyes of the black-clothed assassin like a puff of green smoke, leaving only the latter with a shocked face.

When he reappeared, he was already behind the young paladin, the sword he had abandoned behind him, and in his place was a scimitar coated with gray poison.

D'Artagion was silent for a long time when he saw this scene, and then said, " Motellis has long known that there is an inner ghost around him, but he is not sure who this inner ghost is, and most of the people who are with him are his cronies who have been pulled up by his hand, and they have considerable loyalty to him, only two eighth-order paladins were sent by the temple to protect him later, so if there is an inner ghost, the suspicion of these two people is undoubtedly the greatest, but he doesn't know who is wrong with these two people, if it is some kittens and puppies or something, it is just a big deal to kill them together, but these two people were sent by His Majesty the Pope, and they are both from the Knights, if they are killed, there will be a lot of trouble, so he had to find a way to determine who that inner ghost was. ”

D'Addarion asked Rob, "What would you do next if you were that old thing?"

"If it were me, I would separate the two suspects without their knowledge, and then create an opportunity to test the loyalty of one of them, tonight's blessing ceremony is a great opportunity for Moteris, everyone knows that he can't move when he is blessed, and this time is undoubtedly suitable for killer operations. ”

The Assassin girl looked dazed when she heard this.

D'Artaglion was patient for a rare time, and explained to her, "Don't you understand? The old fox actually only brought one person tonight, that is, your fellow traitor, and the other eighth-order paladin was not here at all, it was disguised by someone else, so when your fellow assassin made a move, your fellow traitor was actually exposed, but the other party was not in a hurry, the guy who was disguised as a paladin before suddenly attacked your fellow traitor in order to reconfirm the identity of your fellow traitor, and as a result, your upright assassin brother's reaction was equivalent to directly telling people that he was in the same group as us。 ”

(I feel like there have been a lot fewer people lately......... )
