Chapter 156: Conspiracy
In the case of the Assassins, the Templar found that the Assassins were outsiders, mixed bounty hunters. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The so-called hybrid bounty hunter is to kill half-elves, half-orcs and other hybrids, and then take their heads in exchange for bounties.
And the bounty is very rich, because there are some pure races that hate hybrids with their genes very much.
For example, the head of the half-elf can be taken to the Elven Forest to find the relevant responsible personnel in exchange for a rich bounty, and the half-orc can be exchanged for the orc tribe, and so on.
So, that's why the Assassins assassinated Swain.
Of course, this is the explanation given by the temple, and everyone believes it anyway.
At the same time, there was also a case of missing persons.
There is nothing unusual about missing people, but the missing person is the ninth head of the Twelve Temples - the same female leader who called Dovra a "female reptile" that day and was slapped by Galf.
At this time, Gwen was gloomy, sitting alone at home, drinking alone, obviously in a bad mood.
One of your right-hand men suddenly disappeared, and anyone would be in a bad mood.
He suddenly felt movement behind him, turned his head sharply, and said coldly: "Who!"
"It's me. "A man dressed in red clerical robes, who somehow appeared behind Guern, was none other than the Cardinal of the Temple of Order, Dedeen.
"What are you doing here?" Gern's tone was very bad, he was already in a bad mood, and the sudden appearance of an uninvited person in the house was even more bad! Especially since he had nothing to do with this person, although the other party often helped him to say good things in front of the Pope, but those good words, there were the same as not, and he did not receive any help in the slightest.
Deedern sat down, sat next to Gern, very close, as if he were his own, moved casually, picked up the wine, and poured himself a glass.
Guern frowned.
Dearden smiled.
This cardinal, with good facial features, looks good when he smiles, although he is old, he is very energetic, his face is very clean, there is no stubble, and he looks like a young man completely.
Guern looks dignified.
Dedeen was in high spirits.
The White Elves of Gern.
Dedeenne Night Elves.
Guern actually hates the Night Elves, because Ciro is the Night Elves, and Sven is also half a Night Elf, which is why he hates it, but he won't say it, his identity doesn't allow him to say such things.
Deedern raised his glass and smiled, "A toast to you." ”
Guern didn't move the cup, and said coldly: "If you have something to say, I don't like this." ”
He didn't have any respect for his boss at all, because the other party broke into his house like a thief, and he was in a bad mood, so he didn't get angry, and he was already very kind.
Dedean was still smiling, not minding at all, and anyone could tell that he was coming.
"I know. ”
"What do you know?"
"I know that the assassin is actually the head of your Ninth Regiment. ”
Gern's face remained unchanged, and he said, "It's nonsense, why did she assassinate a child who is a demon and martial arts?"
Dedeen said, "You instructed it. ”
Gern's face turned pale, and he said angrily: "Don't spew blood! You are not welcome here, go out!"
Dedeen had no intention of going out, and said lightly: "I've been observing you, I'm very interested in you, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this." ”
Gern said: "There is nothing at all, and I am not afraid of people talking." He narrowed his eyes as he spoke, "What are you observing me? What did I interest you?"
"You're an aspirant, a person who doesn't settle for the status quo, just like me. ”
Guern said, "What do you mean?"
"I want to do something big, I want to invite you to join, I'm sure you'll be very interested," said Deen. ”
Guern said, "What's the big deal?"
Deedern smiled mysteriously and whispered something to Gern.
After hearing this, Gern's face suddenly changed drastically, as if he had heard something very shocking, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... You're ......"
"If this great thing is successfully completed, you can get what you have always wanted, and that thing should belong to you," said Dedeen. When your master, Lord Lobin, had it, how majestic it was? With him in the Frozen City, no number of thousands of troops and horses could attack it! All the demonic beasts in the Frozen Forest had to crawl down when they saw him! Why? It was because he had the thing in his hand.
After Lord Lobin's death, that thing should have been passed on to you, but now it has fallen into the hands of someone else, and it has completely lost its original light. Only you, only you, can make it shine again, and make it shine brighter than it did in the hands of Lord Lobin!"
After hearing this, Gwen was excited, his fists clenched tightly, his eyes continued to shine, and he nodded: "I think so too! I can't imagine that the person who knows me best in the temple is actually you!"
Deedern smiled: "A good thing can only play its role if it is used in the hands of a good person, just like a good position, it must be sat by the right person to reflect its value." Don't you think that our temple is too comfortable now? It's so comfortable that everyone is slowly becoming lazy, laziness is the most terrible, it will make people live more and more regressively, so there has to be a change, what do you think?"
Gwen nodded: "This point of view, in fact, I have always wanted to put forward, but it is just ......"
"I know," Deedern smiled, "how sad it is that talent is not reused. I believe that if we cooperate with each other in the future, the temple will have a better development. As he spoke, he raised his glass, "Can this glass be a toast for you?" ”
Guern smiled and raised his glass, "Of course, we're already in the same circle. ”
The two drank a glass of wine together.
Deeden said: "Now you have to do the right thing, put the rest aside in advance, you don't pay attention to that half-elf child, you have lost a powerful subordinate because of him, and the gains outweigh the losses." Now we must gather strength, and only when the strength is strong enough can we do things; after the deed is accomplished, who will be the boss? One can imagine. ”
Guern nodded, "Understood." It's just my men...... I don't know if she's really dead or not, and I haven't been able to find her body, just like ......"
"The world has evaporated, hasn't it?" said Dedeen.
Guern nodded.
"It's dead, I know who killed it," said Dedeen. ”
"Who?"
Deedern smiled mysteriously and said, "A person who will become our partner, a powerful partner, I will take you to meet her, so there is no need to worry about this matter anymore." ”
......
Swain was torn right now.
Because Trixie came looking for him.
He didn't know what to say.
Trixie grabbed him by the arm and said with concern, "Honey, I heard that you were assassinated that day, are you okay?"
Swain nodded, and pulled his arm out of her hand, thanking, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern." Then he looked embarrassed and said, "That...... There's something I want to explain to you. ”
Trixie said, "I know what you're going to say, don't say it." ”
"That ......"
"What, what do I want to do, I have my own rights, you don't have the right to stop me. ”
Sven wondered, "Isn't it good to be a normal friend? You can continue to ...... with your sister."
"It's not good, I like cheating, and I'm sure you will too. ”
Swain: "......"
