CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER XXII

Talis turned to meet the current and asked loudly, "Where are you going now?" If you want to send Aimei's sister to Erathia, it would be better to go to Ernst first and get three teleportation scrolls. ”

"Coming to the Whispering Forest is just to get enough well water to give me enough time, and now I'm just getting down to business..."Asa sat behind her, looking at her snow-white slender neck and knife-cut silhouette, and suddenly felt a little strange. After a moment's pause, he suddenly remembered and asked, "By the way, don't you want to ask me what that strange thing is?" ”

Talis said lightly, "You can say whatever you want." I've been following you all the time, and I know you're on this journey for this purpose. I'll know one day, I'll understand. ”

Asa smiled, was silent for a while, and then said, "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you something, I came out with that thing to find someone this time." And I don't have any clues about where to find this person yet......"

"Looking for someone, then you should go to the Thieves and Adventurers' Guild and place a bounty. ”

"It's useless to put a bounty on this person. I found the two current union presidents of the Thieves' Guild and the Adventurers' Guild in King Ironfast, and the clues were very vague. I'm ready to look for a needle in a haystack and ask around. That's why I went to the Whispering Forest to get enough water from the Sunwell. If it really doesn't work, I have to go to sea and go to the Far East to find a way......"

"Far East?" Talis was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "I'll go too." ”

At this time, His Majesty the Pope's face in Celeste finally saw a rare boundary. After feeling that breath from the last dawn, the Pope's face didn't seem to be very good, and then slowly and slowly got worse and worse, until now. At least Adela had never seen this old man look like this. Although he didn't appear angry or show any signs of agitation, the frowning brow and the cold aura that swirled around him indicated that he was in a terrible mood.

"Go and call me Lancelot. His Majesty the Pope suddenly said to Adra.

Adela hurriedly bowed and withdrew. He didn't even dare to speak out in front of the current Pope, and the cold smell even made him feel his scalp twitch for a while.

The paladin was soon led by the cardinal. His Majesty the Pope didn't even wait for him to stand and salute, but asked directly: "Lancelot, I ask you." How sure are you of killing the Tammik Knight?"

"Not sure. Lancelot's answer was simple and affirmative. "I may be able to beat him, but I can't kill him. "Defeating a person and killing a person are two different things entirely. Especially for someone like the Tammik Knight, who is used to acting in the shadows.

"Yes," the Pope nodded. I thought about it and asked. "And what if it's the guy named Gru, or can he and Cedros team up to kill the Tamik Knight?"

"Still nothing. Lancelot shook his head in certainty. "First of all, Tammik would never go and do anything with this man. I know he's always been right. ”

The Pope couldn't help but nod. He knew that Lancelot was right, and that the strongest thing about the Tamik Knight might not be his skill, but his silky tenacity and sheer rational judgment, and such a person would always know what kind of opponent he should face. What kind of countermeasures should be taken in what kind of environment, just like the most sophisticated machine. In a way, Lancelot can't compare to him.

As if in order to reaffirm this unaffirmable fact, he asked again: "Does that mean that no one on this continent can kill him?"

Lancelot thought about this question for a moment before answering, "I don't know...... All I can say is that as far as I know, it probably should be. ”

The Pope let out a long sigh, nodded a little dejectedly, and said slowly, "But I'm already sure he's dead......

Even Lancelot's face changed, and he paused before saying, "After all... There are no absolutes in this world, maybe there is some accident......"

The Pope did not speak, but stood up and walked to the window to gaze out at the view. After a while, he said slowly: "Actually, I don't want to calculate anything and arrange something. Because I know how accurate my calculations are. It is impossible to control everything, and there will be accidents. I've always believed that as long as you can get the most out of your head. It's just that this time the facts are important, and I can only play with some people......" He turned around and smiled bitterly, "but I don't know if it's my bad luck to encounter such a big accident this time, Tarmik Knight ......"

"Your Majesty, please be relieved. Adela hurriedly said. Only he knew best what the death of the Tarmik Knight meant to His Majesty the Pope, and if His Majesty had to choose to lose a hand or the Tammik Knight, he would never choose the latter. And maybe he's willing to do both.

"Of course you have to be relieved, and if you don't......" the Pope sighed heavily. As if he had made some decision, his face was not suddenly bright. But that gloomy color is gone. "Since the careful eye has failed again, then there is only a relatively large movement......

The Pope said to Adra: "Go to Erathia and call Inham back to me, I have something to discuss with him." ”

"Yes. Adela bowed and withdrew. That's when he was truly convinced. The most important cronies, the best men, such a huge loss only made the Pope a little depressed, and he could almost immediately withdraw from the pain of this loss, and make the next step as if nothing happened.

Able to sit at the top of the continent. It can't just be a fluke or some other kind of luck or something. I wonder how he would react if I died? Because he knew that he would never be as important to the Pope as the Talmic Knights.

The village of Hammondale is a small and inconspicuous place in the Calendor Basin, surrounded by clouds all year round. This small village is not well-known in the first place, not to mention other places, and even in the self-contained Calondo Basin, there are not too many people who know about it.

But a year ago, this small place was fiercely famous. The son of the blacksmith who ran away from here somehow became the murderer of the Imperial Cardinal Archbishop Ronis and Duke Mrak, and became the most vicious wanted criminal in the history of the mainland.

For this matter, the king also sent the knights to investigate, and made a small mountain village jump, and almost took the entire village away as a wanted criminal. But in the end, it was inexplicably closed, and it didn't seem to have been investigated to find anything famous, but I heard that the same officer didn't know how to be thrown or seriously injured by a stone when he investigated, and the young knight in the lead was carried out of Calondo.

Since the incident of the wanted criminal, there have been many foreign adventurers and bounty hunters who have come here to investigate and inquire about the detailed background of the five thousand gold coins, but after this year, the number of people has gradually decreased, and I heard that there seem to be signs of canceling the wanted bounty on the royal capital.

But all of this didn't make much difference for the small village. In a small place where birds don't poop, such an earth-shattering big man suddenly appeared, as incredible as a fire-breathing dragon suddenly born in a rainwater puddle on the side of the road. This kind of thing is beyond the scope of the villagers' comprehension.

Maybe I'm getting it somewhere, and there are a lot of people who look alike. This is the common understanding of almost all the villagers. Because of the dullness peculiar to the inhabitants of the Calondo Basin, they are reluctant to allow their minds to go beyond the confines of their accustomed lives. Aside from the silver coins thrown in by the adventurer's bounty hunters, they kept a very normal mind about it. In the past year, the small village has been as good as ever, except for the bounty that has improved the lives of the villagers.

Outside the village today, three more people came who seemed to be adventurous young people, a man and two women. However, the three men did not panic into the village, but first stopped at the grave outside the village. The villagers didn't show much curiosity, there were not many of them, as long as they ran to dig graves. There have been groups of adventurers who have tried this in search of clues, but the dwarves who have heard of it have been indignant at it, and have taught these people a hard lesson for their disrespect to the dead and the earth. There had never been such an act since, and he had never dared to oppose the dwarves in Calondo. The soil around the tomb was cemented by the dwarves. The tombstone is still the same, with the name written roughly on it. Very ordinary grave.

The cemetery outside the village was rarely passed, and Asa took off his mask, his skin was a little pale when he had not been exposed to the air for a long time, although the magic mask was delicate and breathable, but it was not the same as having a bare face like this. Asa seemed to feel the familiar smell of coke, and the humidity of the basin air was seeping through the pores of his face into his body and heart.
