The captain subconsciously raised his sword to protect his vital points. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info only heard the sound of "bell!", Eve's sword almost pierced his heart, Eve immediately unleashed several swords in a row, and the captain who reacted hurriedly retreated, out of Eve's attack range.

"Take her!" the frightened captain shouted angrily as he pointed at Eve, who had nearly lost his life at the hands of the emaciated-looking girl.

The rest of the ground guards didn't dare to be careless when they saw Eve's extraordinary skills, and they slowly leaned forward and forced Eve into a corner.

Although Eve had mixed feelings, she did not lose her mind, and in the face of at least a dozen soldiers with blades and some degree of training, she knew very well that she had no chance of winning.

"Wait!" As Eve was thinking about what to do, an old, shrill voice came from behind the soldiers. "Don't hurt this lady, she's the famous Lady Eveluna Falst. "The soldiers moved out of the way, and a thin old man dressed like a priest came out, and unlike the church of Embra, he was not wearing the pattern of the sun, but a blood-red eye, as if to take your soul.

"Oh, dear lady, I don't know what you are visiting our church in Maghylia for, do you want to repeat the farce of Abelon?" the old man spoke appropriately, but his expression was not half respectful, but a little disdainful.

"The Maghylia Church?" Eve searched quickly for knowledge about the word, and she realized that she didn't know much. All she knew was that this was the branch of the Church of Embra in Nord, as if it had declared its independence a few years earlier because of an event, and had the support of King Oguma Wyatt.

"Oh, my lord, I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding. On the other side, Arthur and Orlando, who had finally caught up with Eve, knocked over a few soldiers who were blocking them, and then protected Eve in front of her. "We are just believers who follow the rules and follow the teachings of the Maphilia and go on a pilgrimage to the Woche. The poet made a gesture to prove his sincerity. "Our young lady is here for the first time, so she is a little excited, and I ask the monk not to delve into it. ”

"Well, your noise has disturbed Lord Muffylia, and it would be a bad thing if you didn't pay to appease her anger. When the monk saw Orlando's gesture, he understood that he was a man who knew the rules, and he immediately hinted at it.

"Where did you have the audacity to blackmail a nobleman?" said Eve, pushing Orlando away. "Don't you remember the teachings of the goddess Embra, that worldly things are settled by worldly people, and the rights and interests of the nobility are sacrosanct. ”

"Oh, of course I don't remember what the false god said. As soon as the monk heard the name Embra, he immediately said in a righteous manner. "Mefilia is the only true god in this world, Embra is just a deception, she's a fantasy that doesn't exist!" his expression became frenzied, and his eyes gradually lost his mind as he looked at Eve. "And Master Maphilia teaches us that the will of God is above all else!"

"Miss Eve, the Maghylia Church is legal in Nord. Orlando reminded him that he had a bad feeling. "I know. Eve said calmly, of course she knew about it, but Eve wanted to fight more at this time.

"If so, then your god is funny, and his character is not as good as that of a pig. Eve scoffed, Orlando clutched his head and turned his head, Arthur had already aimed his bow at the monk's head.

As everyone imagined, the monk's neck was red with anger, and he trembled and stretched out his finger to Eve and said, "Catch her! I will make her pay for her words and deeds!"

Unconsciously, the soldiers around the priest became more and more numerous, and now there were dozens of people around them. As soon as the monk finished speaking, Arthur's arrow was already on the string, and with a scream, one of the soldiers next to the priest was shot in the eye. Orlando had been prepared for this, kicking over the barrels piled up beside him, and then pulling Eve to run, who still wanted to fight.

Eve wasn't unreasonable, she knew she was impulsive, so she didn't say anything, she shook off Orlando's hand, and then followed him, weaving through the complex structure. Arthur behind him kept shooting bows and arrows, hindering the path of his pursuers.

"Damn, it seems like a dead end. Orlando grumbled a little angrily, he didn't expect the structure here to be so complicated, and before he knew it, he had walked into a dead end, which looked like a prison.

"In the words of the southerners, we are 'throwing ourselves into the net'. Arthur didn't forget to sneer, and then closed the door, which looked thick and should hold for a while.

"It's better to open a gap and let them in and kill one by one. Eve suggested that since there was no way back, it would be better to think about how to win. "Look around you, Eve, there's nothing but straw and iron fences. Arthur said, and there was a slamming sound outside the door. "There's no way we can just open a gap. ”

"Ms. Eveluna Falst, I have to apologize for my rudeness. The monk's voice came from outside the door. "I don't think we need to fight, but I guarantee your safety as long as you are willing to come out, and I am willing to provide you with three good horses and enough dry food to eat the wagons. ”

"We also need three robes, monks, the ones with the sun on them. Arthur said, causing a commotion outside the door. "And the pendant of Lord Embra, which will bless our peace. Orlando continued.

“...... I'll give you an hour to think about it, or you'll starve to death inside!"

"Guess what we'll see when we open the door?" asked Arthur, then he added. "Dozens of good bows and arrows, I guess, just waiting for us to open the door. ”

"I guess it's a bunch of sleeping soldiers, just waiting for us to go out and finish them. Orlando said, though it's not very likely.

"Do the Nords allow the Church to recruit their own soldiers? Don't they remember what happened to Pope Claw?" Eve's impression of the Nords had fallen to a low point, and their polity was too far behind that of Swadia.

"Who knows, the Nord people have nothing but drinking, fighting, and repaying the favor in their lives. Orlando shrugged and said helplessly. "It's a pity that even the simple Nords have been changed by this continent. I don't want to listen to the epics of heroes anymore. He was so moved that he couldn't help but take out the lute and play a song. "Oh, great Olaf, brave and invincible. He sang "Olaf the Hero" and sang about the legendary hero. Orlando's singing voice is very distinctive, singing differently from ordinary bards, full of exotic colors. As soon as he finished singing, Eve and Arthur couldn't help but clap their hands and applaud him.

"I only now realize that your talent as a poet is that I have been deceived by the strings of the piano. Arthur teased, Orlando raised an eyebrow, and then recited. "I'm still very confident in my craft. He said. "At least you don't have to cheat. ”

"Your singing voice, even if you become a court poet, is okay. Eve said that Orlando was much better than the poets of Fort Ambition, and even better than the court poets he had seen before.

"Thank you for the compliment, ma'am, but I am a foreigner, and I have no chance of playing at court. Orlando took off his hat and saluted.

Eve stopped talking, she thought Orlando was a good man, and his skills were good, and she already wanted to recruit him under her command.

"Did I disturb you?" At this moment, an unfamiliar voice came into their ears, and everyone immediately drew their weapons and looked in the direction of the sound.

An emaciated man crawled out of the straw pile, stretched indecently, and then looked at Eve and the others with sleepy eyes. "You don't look like prisoners, you don't look like people from the Maghylia Church, I guess you must have come in and made trouble, huh?" His voice was young, sounding like he was in his early twenties, his brown hair was messy and dirty, and the stubble on his face almost covered his face, probably due to malnutrition, he looked very thin, but he could still see a lot of muscles, he should have been trained in martial arts for a long time.

"I don't know what you've had with the church of Muffylia, but it's clear you're in trouble. He leaned against the wall and tried to stand up, but because his body was too weak, he tried several times before he finally got to his feet. "I thought it was an opportunity for mutual benefit and that I had a way to get out, but I couldn't do it alone. He looked at the three of them, and finally his eyes fell on Eve.

"Tell me about yourself, sir. Eve asked, even the most observant Arthur had not been able to detect his existence just now, it must not be a coincidence, he must have deliberately hidden himself.

"I know what you're worried about, ma'am. He walked towards Eve with a sluggish step, Arthur and Orlando on the side not letting their guard down in the slightest, but the man didn't care. He walked up to Eve, then got down on one knee and said, "I'm Pete Howles, from Covinderson. He struggled to support his body, leaving a few drops of sweat on his head. "In the name of Embra, I offer my allegiance to you, the Honorable Lady Eveluna Falst. I will guard your safety, carry out your orders, and give my life when you need it. To everyone's surprise, this person who called himself Pete actually swore allegiance directly.
