Chapter 133: Judgment
D'Addarion and Lilith called a carriage and pretended to return to the Mage's Guild, but after half a magic time, the two sneaked back, and D'Addarion used his power as president to requisition a house that faced the back door of Majerson's mansion, and through the window he could clearly see the street opposite.
It was late at night, and for the past six magical hours, D'Ardarion had worked hard for about three minutes, then changed from squatting to sitting, and now he was lying on the bed straight, eating popcorn from the drawer, and encouraging the original owner of the bed, a little girl under the age of eight, to go to the kitchen to steal the uneaten apple pie for him.
As if she hadn't seen the farce in front of her, Lilith stood quietly in front of the window, staring at the movement on the other side of the street.
Anyone who has seen Lilith and D'Addarion will feel that the two are not compatible at all, if you use a class as an analogy, Lilith is probably the kind of model student in the class with excellent character and learning, which makes teachers and parents praise, and D'Ardarion is a problem teenager who sneaks and cheats every day, no matter how you look at it, they don't look like people who can get together, but five years have passed, and their emotions have been very stable, which has also surprised many people.
D'Ardarion repeated the boring game of tossing popcorn and catching it with his mouth, with a success rate of less than half each time, when suddenly Lilith, who was not far away, spoke up and whispered, "Here it is." β
The next moment, D'Ardarion quickly bounced up from the bed, came to the window, and sure enough, he saw a carriage of the Matthews family quietly driving out of the back door, Lilith released a magic marker, and the two waited for a while, seeing that no one else came out of the door, it was almost certain that Majerson was in the carriage just now.
"He was a little less vigilant than I thought. β
"Actually, it's also normal, the Forgetting Elixir will take effect about a magic hour ago, if it goes well, he will think that today is still two days ago, and there is no news from Kaiyan City at this time, so even if you suspect that he has a connection with the Patience Church, you won't keep an eye on him too closely. "It's time for us to see what kind of fish we're catching." β
............
In the carriage, Majieson's face was calm, there was no more relaxation and comfort during the day, tonight was the day to do it, according to the agreement, whether it was successful or not, the Church of Patience would give him news as soon as possible, but until now, there was still no message, and Majieson found that the person who had been with him before was gone, so he finally couldn't sit still.
It seemed to him that something had clearly happened on the side of the Church of Patience, and that he had to determine what was going on as soon as possible at such a time, so Majieson hesitated, and finally used the emergency contact channel and took the carriage to Flea Alley.
The viscount covered his face with his cloak and pushed open the door of a blacksmith's shop.
Lilith saw the name on the sign by moonlight - Red Devil Weapons & Equipment Shop.
"Here?" Lilith was surprised.
"Why, you know here?"
"Well, the famous century-old shop in New Telt City sells weapons of no worse quality than those of the royal family. Lilith looked a little strange and paused, "And it is said that the proprietors behind the Red Devils are the Augustinian family. β
"House Augustine?" said D'Artaglyon raised an eyebrow as well.
Augustine is also a famous big family in the Lionheart Empire, although it is not as good as Matthews in terms of history, but its strength should not be underestimated, and more importantly, their family also has a prime minister, yes, the current prime minister of the empire, Pushkin is the head of the Augustinian family.
"Things seem to be getting more and more interesting. The president of the Wizards' Guild rubbed his nose, and an imperceptible glint flashed in his eyes.
"What do we do now, do we want to close the net?" asked Lilith.
Someone's plan is actually quite risky, once Jeffers meets the people of the Patience Church, or someone inadvertently reminds him in the middle of this, then he will soon realize that he has fallen into the trap, and there is a high probability that he will immediately go home, or even further, he may deliberately release some smoke bombs to confuse his vision, but if he closes the net too early, he is not sure whether he can catch the person in charge of connecting with him in the Patience Church.
Lilith proposes to bet that the target is in the Red Devils' Weapons & Equipment Shop, but D'Ardarion doesn't respond immediately, he seems to be still thinking, and after a while, he looks up again, "No, let's wait." β
Lilith didn't ask anything, nodded, and the two hid behind a small tree on the side of the road, and after waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Majelson came out of the Red Devil again, and he looked so hurried that he didn't even pay attention to the situation around him as usual, and got into the carriage directly.
Lilith gave her an inquiring look.
"Leave the Red Devils alone, we just have to keep up with him. D'Ardarion unleashed a levitation spell for himself and Lilith, and said quickly.
"Why are you so sure that Majson hasn't connected with the Church of Patience yet?"
"No, he should have already connected with the contact person arranged by the Patience Church, but I think the whole process of joining is divided into two parts, Mei Jason is the middleman, the middleman does not know the identity of the two, only in this way can the safety of the two of them be guaranteed to the greatest extent, so now what Mei Jason has completed is only the first step, convey the signal of the meeting, give a response to the other side, choose the meeting place, we can only meet the top of the Patience Church by following him, Mei Jason, or the wealth and power of the Matthews family are very important to the Patience Church, so they will definitely send a person of sufficient weight to respond to Mei Jason's questionsγ β
"These are all your guesses?"
"No, I sensed magic fluctuations just now, a total of two, very weak, if it's a teleportation array, it can probably only teleport small items, and it can't teleport a living person. That's why I had the idea of a middleman. "Of course, now that Jefferson has been in contact with the Church of Patience, he realizes that he is at a much greater risk of falling into the trap, but I still insist that Jefferson shouldn't have too much communication with the intermediary from a security point of view, and I personally prefer that he hasn't found himself in the 'two days' yet." β
"It's your plan, it's up to you to decide. Lilith had no objection, the two of them used the levitation technique to hang behind the carriage, and at the same time, because of the presence of magic markers, they did not need to get too close to the carriage, and when they wandered aimlessly for half a magic, even D'Ardarion began to doubt his own judgment that a figure under a black robe boarded the carriage.
