Chapter Ninety-Six: Capsizing
Warm light fills the room,
When Granny woke up, she was lying on the couch, and the light in the room was a little harsh.
Shaking her somewhat drowsy head slightly, Granny half-sat up.
"Sissi!"
Opposite her was Sissi, who was still unconscious.
"Where is this?"
Sissi rubbed her eyes half-asleep, and was caught by Granny's anxious expression.
"Granny, where is this heaven?"
"Hahahaha!"
With a loud laugh, the door of the house opened, and a handsome young man dressed in brocade walked in. Behind him, there were more than a dozen maids holding trays in their hands.
The tray contains a lot of miscellaneous things, including clothes, basins, face towels, soaps, perfumes....... in short, they are all used for ladies to groom and dress up.
"I admire Miss Sissi's devotion to her faith, but this is not heaven, but my mansion. β
"Who are you, how do you know our names?"
She had just planted a heel in the hands of the blood ghost, and she woke up in such an inexplicable place, which really made Grannie a little relieved. Her face was full of vigilance, and she looked at the man in front of her, and turned her hands into knives, protecting Sissi behind her.
"Now the whole city is looking for two young ladies, if I don't know, that's the real deception. The man laughed heartily, then bowed down, full of gentlemanly demeanor, and said: "I am Sancho Fernand of the Duchy of LeΓ³n, temporarily residing in Toulouse, rude!"
Sissi stood up, and like Grannie, returned a lady's salute, "Your Highness just said that the whole city is looking for us?"
"Yes!" Sancho had a sunny smile on his face, like a big brother next door. In fact, like a seasoned spy, the change of identity is nothing more than an idle matter for Sancho.
"After the two were captured by the Blood Ghosts, both the Holy See and the Blackstriped Army were looking for them. And it just so happened that when I was leading the Hu Cong to turn back tonight, I ran into that blood ghost. Perhaps he was in a hurry to get out and didn't get too entangled with my people, so he left the two of them and left alone. β
"Then why didn't His Highness inform Uncle Toby and Bishop Cipoko?" Sissi's bright eyes flickered, her voice soft, and she asked with some curiosity at the moment.
"That's what I thought, but not long ago, that bloodie got into a fight with a necromancer for some unknown reason, and the city was in chaos. For the sake of safety, I temporarily let the two young ladies stay in my house. β
After listening to Sancho's explanation, the two girls were temporarily relieved. Granny asked, "In that case, have the two dark mages been captured?"
"Not yet, those two bandits are extremely fierce, and even now, I haven't gotten any news that the two of them have been captured. β
"It's rude, Your Highness. Uncle Toby and they should be besieging those two dark mages at the moment, and we can't stay here any longer. β
"Destroying blood ghosts and necromancers is the duty of every person of conscience. In that case, I sent my servants to protect the two young ladies to the side of the bell tower. When I had arranged my business, I went right away. β
At this moment, Sancho is righteous and awe-inspiring, and he looks a little cynical.
"Thank you!"
When the two girls walked away, beside Sancho, a dark figure slowly gathered into a human form.
"Your Highness, we let them go, what about the blood ghosts?"
"At this point, we have to make a choice. Inform your men that our business in the North is all cut off, and that no trace will be left behind. β
"Thisβ" The black shadow was startled for a moment, and the whole figure trembled. He couldn't understand why Sancho had made such a determination in vain.
"The Dark Council are insane. When I cooperated with them, I wanted to open up the market in the north. However, in the past few years, under the suppression of the Holy See, the power of the Dark Council has continued to shrink. We can't be in a broken boat with them like this. Now this is a good opportunity, the bloodies and the man are together, and if we kill them all, all will be done. β
"But what if the Dark Council retaliates afterwards?"
"Don't worry, the Dark Council is nothing more than a reservoir dog now, and they can barely keep their own territory in the north, let alone in the south?" said this, Sancho paused slightly, "Moreover, if we can climb the big tree of the Holy See, our business in the north will be much smoother." β
"The subordinates understood, so they went to organize the manpower. β
......
"Why should I help you?"
Leng Yue climbed the branches, and on the side of the bell tower, with the appearance of St. Serre's Whitecoat Zipoco and a large number of priests, the situation on the entire battlefield was reversed at once.
Will stood behind the blood ghosts, ignoring the blood ghosts who were fighting fiercely and the Holy See men besieging him, and said slowly.
"Oh?" the bloodghost's thin cheeks curled into a smile, and he was now leaning down like a beast pounced. "You're a funny person. β
Facing the menacing Holy See's paladins and priests, as well as the masters of the Blackstriped Army who came one after another, the necromancer behind him didn't look panicked at all, and was even calmer than the blood ghost himself.
"You two evils, don't think of running away today. Toby raised his broadsword, anger suppressed in his voice. After all, dozens of knights of the Holy See had just died at the hands of the bloodies, and there were not even corpses left.
"Uncle Toby!
Granny and Sissi happened to appear on the battlefield, causing the bloodghost's brow to furrow. Things had changed beyond his expectations, and Sancho's arrival soon after, convinced the blood-ghost that he had been set up by the boy.
With the explanations of the two young girls, Sancho quickly won the trust of the crowd, like an image of a prince charming who helped the needy.
"Hahaha!" The moment Sancho appeared, Will's laughter followed.
"What are you laughing at?" Even in the face of a group of masters, although the two fought separately, they were still strolling around and talking and laughing. But at this moment, Will's laughter was a little harsh in the ears of the blood ghost.
"Look at the appearance of this Highness Sancho, he is ready to be good!" After such a long fight, Will has long understood the context of what happened tonight. But judging from Sancho's awe-inspiring appearance now, he was ready to dissociate himself from the bloodies. "What does it feel like to capsize in the gutter?" Will's schadenfreude voice spread throughout the battlefield, making everyone present not feel frowning.
One battlefield, two points of engagement, although the same fierce fighting, but the emphasis is different. The pressure on the blood ghosts is increasing, and it is clear that the Holy See sees them as a great enemy and has invested a lot of elite forces.
"Hehe, I'm afraid I'm not the only one who capsized in the gutter!" the blood ghost smiled coldly, since Sancho had already gained the trust of the Holy See at this moment, then Will's plan naturally failed.
The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits.
"So... Cooperation?"
"Cooperation!"
"Necromancy, Death Sigh!"
"Blood Magic, Scorched Bloodhell!"
Black aura and blood-colored ripples hovered over the earth, and in an instant, dust flew, and the entire earth was shrouded in heavy darkness.
