Chapter 49: The Fall
Raphael's back shivered when he heard this, but he didn't hear Fatini say anything more about the plan, so he immediately used his dark spell and sneaked out.
Along the way, the more he thought about it, the more cold sweat broke out.
It is clear that Rodritte is a member of the Star Church, and his status is certainly not low, he betrayed the Night Alliance, and now, this betrayal is about to be pressed on his head.
After he came to the magic tower, Enoch didn't talk nonsense, just threw all the information to him, and smiled proudly: "Raphael, all the devil's dens are here, return them to me when you are familiar with them, I have studied almost everything, you can wait and see." ”
Raphael had something on his mind, and he didn't believe Enoch's nonsense, and the location of the Devil's Den must not be complete, so he bowed respectfully and left the Mage's Tower to find Emilia.
Fortunately, Emilia came to the noble garden in the evening.
Raphael, in Valery's eyes, pulled Emilia aside and explained the situation.
Emilia said: "I didn't expect Rodritte to be a member of the Star Church, it's okay, we all did a good job, and there was no betrayal in our actions, not to mention that we didn't know the specific arrangement of Duke Maitz." ”
Raphael hesitated, "What does Luo Fei have to do with you?
Emilia only knew that Luo Fei was also a member of the Night Alliance, and she didn't know anything else, but she didn't plan to tell Raphael, so she said: "It's just that I know, I'll go and report the situation, as long as I tell Rodrithe's identity, then his words will be self-defeating, and I am also a deacon." ”
Although Raphael was a little unconvinced, he didn't tell Emilia about his own identity in the Church of Light?
That night, Emilia hurried out. Valerie immediately giggled, closed the door, and said, "I've been really busy lately, I'm going to recruit some clerks, by the way, I haven't danced properly in a long time, honey, do you want to see it?"
Raphael immediately drooled, and after admiring Valery's dance, he stayed in the gear shop and sought warmth and comfort in Valery's body.
In the square, Rodriten wore a gray and yellow robe, and followed the marks all the way to the slums, these marks are constantly changing, not painted in the same way, and the paintings are very secretive, often with stone patterns, tree patterns, people who do not know, it is impossible to find it.
He walked through the cluttered side streets, searched carefully, and there was an inconspicuous mark in the corner of a dilapidated low stone house, and he looked left and right, and found that there was no one, so he entered the stone house.
In the shadows of the room, there were three men covered in various colored robes, whose faces were covered by hoods, and the holes in the blindfolds shone with a faint cold light.
Rodriten saluted and said, "I didn't expect that the elder came to Oro City in person, it's really an honor, I have an important situation to report." ”
In the Night Alliance, above the deacon is the elder, and he can only be respectful. He infiltrated himself with the Templars, and when he saw that Raphael had betrayed the Night Alliance before the Bishop, he told him his leave.
The gray-robed man on the side looked at Rodritte's back and said softly, "Do you want to kill him?"
The man known as the elder said in a low voice, "No need, Amilia, it's not that I don't believe your words, in fact, Raphael may indeed betray. And killing Rodriten is not in our interest, we prefer that the two churches conflict, and Matz's actions will not affect the Star Church for the time being. ”
Emilia said: "Raphael did a great job, I still think it was completely Rodrithe's doing. ”
The elder said: "I know some things better than you, so there is no need to say more, I will report Raphael's betrayal, but I will not alarm him now, let him continue to prepare for us." ”
Emilia hadn't expected this, and she wondered why the elder was so stubborn. Persecuting Raphael doesn't seem to be beneficial to the Night Alliance, you must know that Matz's operation, if it is fully supported by Oro City, is still of great benefit, and Nicos is unreliable, then you should try to win over useful people.
She knew that it would be useless to say more, so she and Hans left the stone house.
After they left, the elder laughed a few times, and then said to himself, "Raphael, since you are useful to Glori, if you are lucky enough not to die, then obediently throw yourself into the arms of the Holy Light Church." ”
He also left the stone house, walked for a while, and after confirming that no one was following, he turned to a street with a lot of people, walked in the flow of people, flashed into an inconspicuous corner, quickly took off his robe, and threw it into the space ring, revealing a chubby little face, which turned out to be Luo Fei.
He straightened his clothes and headed for the Academy of Magic.
In fact, he came to Oro City to investigate Rodritte's private actions, and of course, after meeting Gloria, he didn't care about the interests of the Night Alliance.
Early in the morning, Raphael came to the main castle, and when he saw that Nicos was a little listless, he asked, "Honey, what's wrong?"
Nicos betrayed Raphael, a little weak-hearted, and said with a dodgy gaze: "It's nothing, you didn't come back all night, I miss you." ”
Raphael put his arms around her happily and said shamelessly, "Really, my dear, Valery's affair is caused by you, and if you want me to live in the main castle, then let her live in it." ”
Nicos was a little absent-minded and said, "Whatever, I'm a little curious, do you have a good relationship with Glori?"
Raphael was about to tell her to be careful, when the knight on duty outside reported at the door that someone was looking for Raphael.
Raphael's topic made Raphael want to avoid it, so he went outside first to see what was going on.
The person who came, a messenger child, told Raphael Lancer to find him, saying that Lancer had taken a few students and asked Raphael to meet him.
There are many such children in the city, who guide the way, deliver letters, help busy merchants buy food, etc., in short, street boys who do chores.
After Raphael gave the street boy a few copper coins, he went back to the garden of the nobility.
It was also appropriate for him to take a look, now Valerie had two stores, and she only stayed in one, but Emilia didn't care about managing it, and Raphael wanted Lancer to take care of the other store.
Raphael thought about it, Nicos had always been very cautious, and the church would not do it immediately, so she went directly to the store, and as soon as he left, Nicos received a notice that it was a real Viscount named Luo Fei who visited her.
Since it is a nobleman of status, it is necessary to meet each other, otherwise there will be a grudge, and Nicos is in the small living room, meeting Luo Fei alone.
When Luo Fei saw Nycos, he saluted gracefully, and after greeting each other, he sat down in the living room, took out a beautiful bracelet and an object, and put them on the table, and said, "After coming down to Oro City, I want to run some business, and I have come to visit Your Excellency Nicos, and I have heard that Your Excellency and Your Excellency the Bishop have a very good relationship, and I beg Your Excellency to introduce me to it, which is better than paying a surprise visit to the Bishop." It's a small gift, so don't dislike it. ”
Nicos did not doubt him, although it was a little ambiguous to give the bracelet, but she didn't care, she looked at the alchemist's product on the table more curiously, that thing was like a complex core, the shape was strange, and it was delicate and mysterious, the material was not gold or wood, it seemed to be very valuable, and it looked very ancient, so she said: "Viscount Luo Fei, what is this?"
Luo Fei smiled: "I also got it by chance, it is said that it was in a war, from the inner hall of the church in Oro City, I don't know what it does, this thing is a bit like opening what mechanism is used, I think it is very good to visit the bishop, with this gift, of course, if you are interested in this gift, you can stay." ”
Nicos's apricot eyes shone slightly, and said: "Oh, this kind of strange gift, I'm afraid it's not suitable for the bishop, I will prepare a few hardcover canons as gifts, in this case, let's go visit the bishop, but without an appointment, it may be a bit rude." ”
Luo Fei said: "A sincere visit is appropriate at any time, and I think that in your capacity, the Bishop will be happy to meet with you." ”
Raphael didn't expect the situation in Oro City to be calm, which made Nicos lose her original caution, and the strange mechanism made Nicos want to go to the church to observe, how did she know that this was done by Luo Fei.
She took only two knights and went to the church with Luo Fei.
After entering the church, Nicos always felt that something was wrong, and she almost walked to the wall, only to realize that there was no one praying in the church, and she immediately turned to look at the door of the church, and found that the Templars outside had persuaded those who wanted to come in to pray.
She was startled, and immediately held the hilt of the sword in her hand, and said to Luo Fei beside her, "What's the matter?"
Luo Fei said with a look of surprise, "I don't know, is there something going on in the church?" he asked the Templar on the side, "What happened?"
The Templar said to Nicos, "Your Excellency, it is the Bishop who has asked the priests to pray collectively for some things, hoping to receive a revelation from God, so that there will be no one to preside over the affairs of the day, so the believers will not be accepted for the time being. ”
Nicos was relieved to hear this, and felt that this prayer must be for the sake of the ruins, so she asked the Templar to inform her.
Ever since she saw Fino and Gina messing around, Gloria has been strict with the rules, and now anyone who enters the inner hall must be informed, except Raphael.
After receiving the invitation, Nicos asked the two knights to stay outside and walked in with Rofe.
According to etiquette, Luo Fei was slightly half a step behind her.
The inner hall was silent, and there was no one, and Gloria appeared on the stairs, smiling mysteriously at Nicos.
Nicos felt a blast of wind pass behind her, and she didn't have time to react, her eyes went black, and she fainted.
Outside, the two knights of Nicos were chattering boredly, and then they were surprised to see the doors of the church closed, and then the surrounding Templars surrounded them, flashing their crossbow arrows in a cold light, and pointed at them, and behind the Templars, there were three battle priests, and the priest's robes trembled slightly, apparently mobilizing the Holy Force.
Two short screams rang out from the prayer hall.
Nicos woke up slowly, a trace of sadness flashed in her heart, as soon as she woke up, she figured out that it was Gloria who did it to her, with the strength of the Holy Light Church, even if the nobles in the city knew, they did not dare to act rashly, she looked down slightly from the side, knowing that she was fixed to a huge cross by the alloy chain.
Looking up slightly, she saw the shiny silver, and she hung her head weakly.
Although not every church has an inquisition enforcer, every church has a dedicated dungeon for the Inquisition, and the facilities in this dungeon and the bloodstains on the stone slabs on the walls make people feel terrified when they see it.
