From Oro's point of view, he naturally couldn't perceive the situation behind him, but Durham opposite him could see it clearly.
The strange Altyn man in the tavern suddenly disappeared all at once, not teleportation, not invisibility, but still felt his existence.
Daoul was a little dizzy, he had encountered this strange situation for the first time.
Normally, this should be called invisibility, but he resisted the adjective, the person did not use some method to hide his form, how to describe it, as if what he saw was not the face of the person, and the disappearance was nothing more than the 'human' shell and merging with the air......
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Daoul's mind, and the look of surprise and surprise on his face finally became clear.
That's it...... If it's him...... Scold...... I should have guessed it a long time ago, but I couldn't make a conclusion because of some uncertain factors. No matter how strong the Knight of Dawn is, it is still risky to come alone, how could the High Priest make such a stupid decision that makes the high-ranking cultists almost commit suicide. The vanguard of only one person was clearly a decoy, and if there was no definite evidence, even the Dawn Sect would not be able to openly intervene.
"Fred!"
Daoul suddenly shouted, Neam was already wary of the mage casting spells, but he didn't want to give the city lord who had already been disarmed by him a chance to escape.
Taking advantage of the Dawn Knight's momentary distraction, Fred activated the teleportation circle engraved in the ring. Two flashes of white light flashed one after the other, and he and Daoule vanished.
Unlike short-range teleportation, long-distance teleportation cannot be interrupted once it is turned on, and Link is not strong enough to forcibly interrupt it, so he can only watch the two slip away.
"You let them run. Neam looked at the other mage whose feet had been lifted off the ground.
Aoluo, who was out of breath, noticed the knight's gaze past him and landed behind him. Even an idiot can guess that he is carrying a middle-aged man with the appearance of an Altyn.
"You can catch big fish with a long line, even if you put the old Nax in Hohenheim in one pot. Nor could the foundations of the slave trade be shaken. Link finished his vaporization and showed his form.
Oro repented for his miscalculation.
If it weren't for Fred and Daoule, I wouldn't have lost my chance to escape. I knew they had no intention of fighting, so why should I be stupid and stubborn to the end?
Only his eyes could move, and his gaze kept scanning back and forth between Nerham and Link.
These two who don't like each other are more like enemies than companions.
"Only a few. The others ran away. Vera threw over the three unlucky ones who had attempted to escape, and one of them even broke his leg bone and lay on the ground wailing. Before Link could say anything, Vera, who followed closely, threatened to break her other foot without closing her mouth.
The cages stacked on top of each other had been violently and forcibly destroyed, but most of the slaves who were imprisoned inside did not escape immediately, and only looked at the culprit of the riot with frightened and blank eyes.
The sight made Neham's brow furrow, and he knew why the men refused to get out of their cages. The long period of captivity had deprived them of hope of regaining their freedom, and more importantly, few slaves had managed to escape for decades. They only thought that it was just another riot that would eventually be quelled.
"The reason why they are like this is that the Dawn Sect also plays a big role. ā
Link's sarcastic sneer made Neham's frustration find a breakthrough, "What did you say?!"
"Isn't it? In order to keep Hohenheim neutral, the Dawn Sect, which has always regarded itself as the guardian of order, knows what is happening here, but still pretends not to know anything, you have no right to blame Nax. ā
Neam clenched the blade of light in his hand, his body trembling slightly with anger.
"How. Am I not telling the truth?" Link raised his eyebrows and shook Oro in his hand. "Or do you want to learn from this idiot to kill me?"
Neam turned and walked towards the slaves who still refused to leave their cages. He didn't look at Link's slightly raised mouth and disdainful eyes, afraid that he wouldn't be able to control it and fight with Link.
Vera looked at the knight's back and sneered, "Decent guy. I really don't understand why Doyle respects such hypocrites?]
[Forced by the overall situation, if it were another period, Hohenheim would not dare to do this kind of thing. Link couldn't get along with Neuem, but he also knew in his heart that the Dawn Sect was helpless to turn a blind eye.
[It is this kind of unfirm stance that is hateful!] If they can stick to their boasted doctrines. Doyle and I don't have to be like this. Vera hated the seal of Dawn, and she would rather not be born than be half-crippled like she is now, huh...... It's not even half-crippled, and it shares a human shell with Doyle, limiting its true strength.
Not wanting to draw more displeasure into Vera, Link didn't go any further on the topic. Of course, the more important factor is that he feels that there are many people who are moving towards the cave through the underground waterways that extend in all directions.
Did you touch the alarm system...... Link glanced at the mage with a stiff face and dripping eyes, "Don't think that you can turn the situation around with a helper, no matter how much waste wood comes, it's just a moth to a fire." ā
Oro swallowed nervously, if he was lucky before, then he has no delusions at all now.
When teleporting, he activated the mechanism set up in the market, in addition to the mercenaries hired at a high price, the city lord also had an agreement with the underground gangs and homeless people in the city, in addition to providing information about outsiders, but also to assist in suppressing when someone made trouble. The cooperation between the two sides has always been quite pleasant, but today we are going to make an exception.
People with weapons in their hands poured into the large cavern from the underground waterway, Link estimated the number, although it would not change the situation, but it was quite troublesome to deal with, he didn't want to rely on hand-to-hand combat to knock them down one by one, it was better to use a more deterrent spell to stop it......
Unsure Vera, afraid that she would not kill a large number of people lightly, Link decided to take matters into his own hands, and before the spell could be cast, he saw Neuem, who was standing in the middle of the cave, raising his hands and making a gesture of pleading.
Belch...... What does this guy want to do? Pray at this time?
[Open the enchantment!] Lorelei, who was becoming more and more silent, suddenly warned him.
[What, he still can't help it, do you want to clean up with me?] Link teased.
[Not for you!]
Link was stunned for a second, then reacted. The Demon Dragon belongs to the Night, and even if it is a descendant of the split, it is still the evil dark camp and the enemy of the Dawn of Light. In her sealed state, Vera could hardly resist the divine power from Dawn.
As soon as Vera was wrapped with divine power, forming a close-fitting protective enchantment, Neam suddenly burst out with a dazzling bright light, and the whole person was like a strong light bulb. Link subconsciously squinted, and suddenly heard Vera in the enchantment crying in pain, and when he looked back, he saw that she was pale, with her hands around her, and her eyes were straight, as if she was enduring some pain.
Vera is a complete demon, and most of her power has been sealed and she can't resist the purification of the morning sun. ć
Lorelei rarely used such an eager tone, and Link realized that something was wrong, and let go of the mage in his hand, and his hands went to help Vera, who had fallen to the ground.
[Can you hear me?Swap!] Link knew that Vera had a stubborn temper and tried not to use a commanding tone.
Vera, who couldn't bear it, had no choice but to obey Jian yƬ and exchange the inside and the outside. Doyle, who is half human, is indeed slightly better, although he still feels very uncomfortable, but he is out of danger.
"What kind of crazy ...... that kid" Unexpectedly, the mage did not take the opportunity to escape, and Link, who was relieved, subconsciously glanced at it, only to see Aoro curled up in a ball, constantly rolling on the ground, scratching his hands everywhere on his body, as if he was suffocating, and his face had turned the color of pig liver.
[What is this Morning Dawn Purification? Is it the same as the one I performed?] If you don't understand, you have to ask, Link asks Lorelei, who is rich in knowledge and can be called a living library, for advice.
[In essence, the effect of purification is linked to the deity's own duty.] Take the purification you perform as an example, since Isol, one of the Four Pillars, has a priesthood of life, and can return the souls accumulated over thousands of years to the flow of life and reincarnate again. And the priesthood of Dawn is light, and he himself is a symbol of order, and the purifying effect becomes the punishment of evil. The more chaotic the faction, the more damage you will suffer, which is why I asked you to open the enchantment, but unfortunately your faction is neutral, so you can only barely protect yourself, and you can't give the demon dragon more protection. Lorelei spent a lot of words explaining to Link.
Link listened to this, and his heart was secretly annoyed.
As a high-ranking cultist, Neam must have known the effects of the Dawn Purification Technique, but this guy is not soft to use, no wonder there is an extreme 'army of justice' like the Avenger Army.
Although he has also killed people with his own hands, Link has not been able to disregard life. Just as he was about to do something to interrupt Neuham, the light from the Knight of Dawn suddenly vanished. In the blink of an eye, the cave was restored to its original darkness. The thugs and outcasts who had come to their aid lay on the ground, rolling in convulsions or screaming with all their might, and the discomfort Doyle felt was nothing compared to it.
Neham turned his head and looked at Link, both seeing displeasure and obvious hostility in each other's eyes.
The cave, which had become chaotic because of the arrival of the thugs, became silent, and the silence did not last long, and someone stood up tremblingly, and asked in a voice as shaky as his body, "Who are you?"
"The Knight of the Dawn, by the order of the High Priestess, has cleared the slave market that has occupied the city of Nax. Neham replied without an undulating voice. (To be continued......)
