"You're going to... Elopement?"

“... Marcus, now is not the time to talk about this... We need your help!

"Oh, who would dare to do this to the Duke of Brewster's daughter? Or are you really going to elope, so Lord Brewster sent someone to arrest you?"

Luo Xiaotian turned his head, although he didn't see the figures of the two holy knights, but they could appear in front of him at any time, Luo Xiaotian was not sure if they would stay in this Colosseum, whether they would not dare to come in.

"It's a Holy Knight!"

“......”

"Marcus?!"

"Holy Knight..."

"Marcus!!"

"Alright, follow me!"

Marcus's attitude made Luo Xiaotian very uneasy, but fortunately he finally agreed to help them.

"Don't prepare, close the door, Mr. Stanley, go backstage and call Mark and Scott and tell them to stop anyone from entering, and then have Martin go and inform the city guards that someone is trying to attack Grant's Auction. ”

"Wait a minute, Marcus, and have your men tell the city guards that the manor at the end of the street around the corner has been overrun by a group of civilians! ”

"Oh?... Mr. Stanley, do as Ronald says, and I'll leave these things to you!"

"Master Marcus, you're polite! I'll do it. ”

After explaining to these people at the scene, Marcus took Luo Xiaotian and Alice to the back of the Colosseum, passed the wooden staircase, and came to a room on the second floor.

"Okay, with Mark and Scott watching down there, this place should be safe enough, they're the official knights in charge of here, now tell me, what the hell is going on, why are you being chased by the Holy Knights?"

"Before that, should you explain your offense to me?"

Alice finally straightened her breath and returned to the same Alice who had always been calm.

"Offended?, but you two really look like elopement, and you see, I'm a friend of Ronald!"

"I don't remember having a friend like you. ”

"I also think, how can Rollo have a friend like you!"

Almost in unison, Luo Xiaotian and Alice expressed their opposition to Marcus's words.

“... Can't you give your savior a face? At least this time, if I don't help you, you'll be in danger, right? Okay, tell me what happened?"

"Alice, I want to know what's going on?"

Luo Xiaotian sat there with a deaf look, to be honest, except for the time he encountered in the Ancient Magic Tower, this was the most exciting experience that Luo Xiaotian felt.

"Rollo, do you remember when I agreed with you to meet at noon today, the location was a small nobleman's manor?"

"Yes, but after going there today, I found that this manor is not small at all..."

"That's because you haven't seen the real nobles and their estates... I met this little nobleman at a banquet, his name is Brad Field, he is a viscount, and there have been many banquets in Fink City recently, around the matter of Jay Dalton, everyone is discussing how to help each other, for some reason... It doesn't hurt to tell you, one of the people sent by the Imperial Ministry of Justice and Congress to deal with this farce in Fink City is my father, so I attended these banquets to learn some about the attitudes of the nobles of Fink City and the problems that may lie within. ”

Taking a sip of the water that Luo Xiaotian poured for her, Alice continued.

"Brad Field was a good friend of Jay Dalton before, although Jay Dalton caused a lot of trouble to almost all the nobles in Fink City this time, but he was not angry because of this, the nobles will not look down on you because of what your friends are doing, but sometimes, this will be a reason to value you. Connections: There is only addition, no subtraction. Field attended almost every banquet about it, at least every time I saw him at the banquet, and at yesterday's banquet he told me that he had a manor on the outskirts of the city, and that it was a good season to cool off on the estate, and asked me if I would be interested in living there for a summer, and I was not interested in the coolness, and it was fine at school, but after my father came here in two days, there must always be a decent place to live, and the mayor, Count Walpole, would definitely not be able to do so, and if there was no accident, he might not be able to be the mayor。 Field invited me to take a look at this manor at noon the next day, I did pay attention to this Field, and knew that their family was not a new nobleman, they had maintained the title of viscount for more than three hundred years, and I was curious if this ancient nobleman would bring any surprises, so I agreed to his invitation, and left a letter for Rollo, I wanted to solve the matter of the magic fan by the way, although it was not a big deal, but it was not good to always leave it like this. ”

"You didn't suspect him?"

"Why should I be suspicious? Why should I be suspicious, these days, there are always many people who have been courteous to me or given me gifts because of my father, and sometimes I will not refuse. Another point, I didn't expect anyone to be unfavorable to me, especially Viscount Field is still the patriarch of an ancient aristocratic family, and as a result, I am afraid that it is this antiquity that makes Viscount Field's thinking go wrong. By noon everything was normal, and Field himself showed me around the manor and the castle, had the stewards and servants stationed at the manor come to meet me, and finally invited me to lunch. However, I told him that I had also invited someone else to ask him to wait. It was only then that I began to be suspicious, for he was so anxious and nervous that he always looked in the direction of the castle, and then when he was not ready to leave, I realized that I was in danger. Unfortunately, it was a step too slow, and when I asked Blake to leave the manor with me, I was blocked by civilians rushing in with weapons, so we turned around and ran towards the castle, guess who I ran into?"

“......”

Who would have the interest to guess who Alice met at this time.

"It was Jay Dalton's wife and son, and they stayed in the castle, and when Field showed me around the castle, he deliberately missed some places, and told the housekeepers and servants who knew beforehand, so that I didn't notice them at all. Connecting all of these things, I think the facts are clear. ”

"Why didn't I find any facts?"

"Rollo... Field was a good friend of Jay Dalton, and after Jay Dalton's disappearance, he took Jay Dalton's wife and only son for some reason, settled them in the manor's castle, and then invited me to visit his manor and brought me together with Jay Dalton's wife and son. Then it's simple, let the angry commoners know that Jay Dalton's family is in this manor, and if someone instigates and takes the lead, the rest of the commoners will join the crowd in punishing the guilty nobles. As for me, of course, there are special people to take care of it, and no matter what happens to me, my father's anger will drown out on the entire Fink City, so that the purpose of the Cult of Illuminati will be achieved, completely dividing the commoners and nobles of a city, and allowing the city to flow from the hands of the Empire to the hands of the Cult of the Illuminati. Of course, now that I have escaped, the effect has been reduced by half, and those civilians have privately captured the noble manor and punished the nobles, I am afraid that the whole of Fink City will still be nervous. ”

"And what about the owner of the manor, Viscount Field, and what does he get?"

"I think he's going to show up as a victim to everyone, he wants to protect Jay Dalton's family, but his estate is attacked by a mob, and he and his servants are desperately resisting... This will be a bright image in the eyes of everyone. As for what you can get? Think about it, will a family that has only been a viscount for three hundred years really be satisfied with its status? In the past three hundred years, how many wars and crises have occurred in the Bauhinia Empire, and many people who were nobodies back then have become earls or even marquis and dukes, and they are still viscounts, I am afraid that the Bright God Cult has promised him some conditions that are enough to make his heart move, as for what it is, only God knows. ”

"The Cult of Light has existed for five thousand years, he has grown from an organization of only a few dozen people to the present, and almost every city on the continent has a church, and the holy city of Sainlet has also become an existence above the capitals of other countries, on the same level as the magical city of Endymion, so maybe the Cult of the Light can't bear it anymore, and they want to gain more authority. ”

"So when we mentioned the Holy Knights, you hesitated to save us, did Marcus? You think the Cult of Light is powerful enough to start an all-out war with our nobles, so you don't want to offend them?"

"Hehe, Miss Brewster, we are merchants, and businessmen have to weigh the pros and cons, don't we? Didn't I still choose to help you in the end? Moreover, the result of this decision is that we will never have a chance to side with the Cult of Light again, and such a big sacrifice must be considered. ”

"But you're a nobleman yourself!"

"That's true, but before the nobility, we were first and foremost merchants. By the way, you haven't finished talking about what happened in the manor, and I'm curious about what happened after that. ”

"It's very simple, I hid, met Rollo who went looking for me, and was rescued by him, and then you already know about being chased by the Holy Knight. ”

"Well, at least I know that you didn't elope. ”
