Chapter 121 Guests
"Li!" A voice suddenly appeared in his mind, and the temple powerhouse Li who was about to go to the imperial capital with anger stopped, the anger in his heart was still burning, but he had to put it aside for the time being, it was none other than one of the highest people in the Holy See Ruling Office who was talking to him.
Although they are all temple powerhouses, the temple level is the same as any previous stage, there are also strong and weak points, and every slight level difference in the temple level seems to be a small centimeter, but in fact it is thousands of miles! Although Li is also a temple powerhouse, he is still a temple level after more than ten years of poverty! There are not many temple powerhouses in the Holy See, and that is in terms of the base number of the Holy See! There are only a handful of temple powerhouses whose strength exceeds the fifth level, but there are still an objective certain number below the fifth level, and there are more than a dozen of them in the temple level like him, the inquisition, the penance and the knights, although he has a certain status within the inquisition, he is by no means a person with the right to dominate!
"Lord Ledson. Lee responded to the other party's call very respectfully, not daring to be distracted, but the character who spoke to Lianshi was Ledson, one of the three major characters of the Ruling Institute, and his personality was the most perverse and the most irritable!
"Where are you now?" Ledson's voice was full of impatience, and Lee frowned fiercely, "Lord Ledson, I reported it before I left, and I left for some personal reasons, but I ...... soon"
"Come back! You've got time to get out and hang out in such a busy hour! Now, now, come back to me right now!"
The connection was interrupted, Li stood on the void, his eyes looked at the imperial capital not far away, and he could only grit his teeth and turn away! The blonde little girl, when the main hall has time, I will definitely find you to figure it out! Now, let you live for a while longer! Li's figure is far away from the imperial capital, and he disappeared after the last time, if he knew that Lord Ledson, one of the three major adjudication offices, was the teacher of this blonde girl, especially the teacher who loved her very much, I don't know how he should feel?
In the next few days, the temple powerhouse never appeared again, and the breath never appeared near the imperial capital, but he was sure that he had left the imperial capital, as for whether he knew the truth of the matter or not, she didn't care, if she knew, she would have already come to the door.
After this incident, mercy is in Dura. Carter's status in his heart has been significantly improved, and even the matriarch invited Pian to live in Carter's mansion, but was politely refused, but the matriarch treated Pian a lot warmer, and she was also exposed to many things, which was an absolute good thing for Pian.
Meissen didn't show up, he thought he should have a better life with that money, and he didn't ask anything more, he was a passerby, but she liked the little fat man. Monica returned to the Northern Continent to preside over big and small affairs, and she was very cautious about those young people who had just joined the Carter clan, but no matter how much she investigated, she would not find out that these people had anything to do with mercy.
Although the temple powerhouse left, it was clear that the matriarch was angry about the loss of the traded items, and she still did not give up looking for it in private, but she still returned empty-handed. Everything went smoothly under the arrangement of mercy, and the twenty people also came into contact with a lot of things in many areas of the Carter family, Dura. Carter wouldn't know that this woman, who only smiled lightly in front of her and never said much, had already seen her through.
"On a given day of the month, a large portion of the Carter family's funds are missing, and the whereabouts are unknown. β
"And the Carters will send some precious things somewhere, maybe some kind of underground trade. β
"I heard that on special days, the matriarch will meet with special people, it seems that in the last few days!"
In the hidden room, the twenty people who infiltrated the Carter clan gathered together, sat on the side and listened quietly, this is the news that these people took a long time to find out, this information is extremely valuable to her, and according to her speculation and observation, the Carter clan does have small movements, and it seems that they really have dealings with the Dark Church.
"Miss, the Carter family doesn't seem to be very afraid of the Holy See, is there a backer behind them?"
Lian sneered, "Although the Carter clan has an intersection with the Holy See, it is only a matter of the past, and the Holy See will do it if it wants to, but after all, there are some concerns, but it is just a concern." β
"So, sooner or later, the Holy See will have to do something against the Carters!"
Sighing pitifully, "It can be said that if the Carter clan can be uprooted, the family's strength will not be feared, and the other families in the Northern Continent will not be able to make any money, and with the scale and influence of the Holy See now, the Northern Continent will be the same as other continents." β
"I always feel that this matriarch is not small, and even dares to rob the resources of the Holy See in some transactions, she is so bold!"
Lips, Dura. Carter's style has always been like this, dare to do and fight, maybe there is nothing she doesn't dare. "Your message is precious to me, thank you very much. β
"What are you polite to us, Miss, we haven't congratulated Miss, our strength has broken through to the level of the Great Magister!"
"If you try, you can do it. The others smiled embarrassedly, they felt that it was not easy to break through to the advanced level, where would they dare to ask for more? besides, the young lady gave them so many favors, and they only reciprocated a little bit of the news.
"If Miss wants to bring down the Carter family, she is still a little weak. β
Pity shook his head, "How can it be possible to overthrow the entire family with one's own strength, naturally you have to rely on the strength of others." β
"Miss means the Holy See? Yes, the Holy See is already unhappy with the Carter family, and if Miss is willing to fan the flames, it would be better for the Holy See to do something to the Carter family. β
Smile pitifully, didn't say anything more, looked at the time, "That's all for today, be careful when you go back." β
"Yes, is Miss going back to the academy?"
There was silence for a moment, then she shook her head, "No, I'm going to Carter's Mansion and stay there for a few days. β
Twenty people were surprised, Miss never spent the night at Carter's mansion, how could this time make an exception? Could it be that ...... "Does the matriarch want Miss to go with her to meet that particular person?"
The corners of her lips were lightly hooked, and everyone immediately understood something, and now the matriarch was more and more inseparable from this blonde girl.
In the dead of night, Ren did not return to Garland College, this time she lived in the Carter family's mansion, the familiar environment was unfamiliar, and she even remembered which thing she had broken when she was a child, which room she frequented to play in, and even where she got lost. It's just that these memories no longer want to be touched, and the mansion in front of her is strange to her, and she is pity. Bella, the first stranger to visit the overnight stay.
Even so, it is difficult to sleep, and many of the corridors in the mansion are hung with portraits of Carter's patriarchs, serious or smiling, dressed in formal or civilian clothes, drinking and eating, or entertaining guests.
Lian stood quietly in front of a portrait, that was her favorite painting when she was a child, a pair of young and beautiful men and women were graceful and luxurious, the man was handsome, the woman was noble and elegant, the unusually beautiful long golden hair was like the sun, both of them smiled sweetly, there was a little girl who was only four or five years old standing next to the man, shyly and shyly smiling, the woman was holding a baby in her arms, and standing behind the man and woman was an old man with white hair but strong spirits, although the face was angular, but the eyes were full of kindnessγ
Ola. Carter liked the painting the most, and often looked up to the men and women in it, and her grandfather would crouch down and tell her that the man and woman were her parents, very good, and very fond of her.
"Ola, even though your parents didn't grow up with you, they love you and have always loved you, just like Grandpa. "The warm palm of the little girl embraced the little girl in her arms, Ola. Carter never felt sorry for her parents, and although she barely had time to talk to them, remember their appearances, and feel their warmth, their love always surrounded her.
Pity couldn't help lowering her eyes, if her beloved parents knew that Lu Dao was their own daughter who brutally killed the other one, and even did something to her grandfather, I don't know how disappointed they would be when Lu Dao was far away in heaven.
Mercy couldn't help but raise her head again, Grandpa, father, mother, forgive me, forgive me for everything I have to do, forgive me for destroying your beloved Carter with my own hands, forgive me for killing my own sister with my own hands.
"This painting, it's beautiful, isn't it?" a voice suddenly interrupted mercy's thoughts, and a bewitching figure slowly walked down the spin ladder, walking in the cold moonlight, the matriarch's smooth skin seemed to be shining slightly, standing beside mercy and looking up at the painting in front of her with her.
"Well, it's beautiful, I can't help but be intrigued. The matriarch smiled softly, her slender arm raised slightly, "That's my grandfather, the patriarch of the previous generation of the Carter family, this is my father, my mother, and ...... This is my sister, Ola. Carter. β
Ren didn't go to see the matriarch, just smiled faintly, "I've heard of this name. β
"Anyone who lives in the North Continent will hear this name, my sister Ola. Carter is a character who is known as a genius girl, but ...... Died too early. The matriarch crossed her arms around her chest, the hem of her dressing gown hanging from the ground, "My sister has been praised by the Pope, and this honor is not something that anyone can have. β
"It's true, it's a pity that I'm not here at a young age, it's really a pity. She turned around and looked at the matriarch's slightly drooping eyes, unable to see what her expression was.
"It's a pity that I, as a sister, also feel sorry for her. The matriarch spoke slowly, and even her words were a little light, "It's really a pity to lose such an excellent sister." β
Rity stared at her closely, "I heard she was murdered?"
The matriarch's expression was unconcealable for a moment, and then she returned to her composure, "That's all rumors in the mountains, she died in an accident, and many people just like to make up things about the nobility." β
He smiled pitifully, "That's right, if someone is murdered, you, as a sister, will naturally not let it go." β
The matriarch smiled, "I'm a little tired, you should go back to the room early, don't be too greedy to look at this painting, it's nothing to see." The matriarch turned to leave, no interest in talking, looked at her figure hidden in the dark, hooked her lips coldly, and then turned around, if she changed her identity, if Carter was just an ordinary small family, would things still develop like this?
Three days passed, and Ren stayed at Carter's mansion, and the matriarch did not issue any special orders, Monica went about other things, and Ren was allowed by the matriarch to enter and leave her matriarch's room, and even discuss some internal matters.
"Whew...... Tomorrow you and I will receive a distinguished guest. The matriarch put down the things in her hand, rubbed her temples, and raised her eyebrows, "Honored guest?"
"This distinguished guest is very special, don't talk nonsense when the time comes, just stand behind me, and don't care what he says. The matriarch commanded repeatedly, and the matriarch nodded, and the matriarch hooked her lips, "Pity, you are really obedient." β
He smiled pitifully, "Doesn't the patriarch like obedient people?"
Dura. Carter lowered his eyes slightly, "It would be nice if she had been so obedient all the time......"
"What did the patriarch say?"
The matriarch shook her head, "You can go out, come here tomorrow, don't be late." β
Ren nodded, pushed the door out without saying more, and happened to meet Monica, the two greeted each other and didn't communicate much, maybe Monica didn't expect that in such a short period of time, Ren would be so valued, even to the point of surpassing her.
On the second day, mercy arrived at the patriarch's room on time, the matriarch was dressed sexy and not rude, but the position in front of the sexy chest would be tightly covered, and mercy stood quietly aside, waiting for the matriarch to greet the distinguished guest.
The door was pushed open, without any greeting, a figure walked in, dressed in a well-cut uniform suit, wearing a matching top hat on his head, the butterfly knot around his neck made him look very gentlemanly, the top hat was gently taken off by a pair of hands, quite pale skin, donated gray hair, it seemed to be a little unkempt without luster, and the facial features were not prominent, but those eyes had a different kind of shocking power, and there was always a strong sense of oppression when touching. As if ...... You are his prey.
"Welcome, Mr. Thorge. The matriarch stood up, and with a polite and kind smile, the gentleman stepped forward and placed a light kiss on the back of the matriarch's hand, but his gaze swept sharply in the direction of mercy, and his lips hooked, "It's an honor to meet you, Ms. Carter, and ...... The blonde lady. β
Mercy's breath tightened, and her intuition told her that this man was dangerous, and the matriarch waved her hand and smiled, "Don't frighten my little friend." β
Sog smiled elegantly and sat down, and the matriarch sat down too, and the gentleman's fingers couldn't help but touch her chin, "The face of the blonde lady always reminds me of someone. β
"Oh, who is it?" the matriarch looked at this Mr. Thorge with some curiosity, had they seen it?
The gentleman smiled, the smile on the corner of his lips grew bigger and bigger, and he faintly saw the sharp teeth in his mouth looming!
"The little girl with the same long hair and the frail look of the young priest is very fresh in my memory. β
"Buzzββ!" Piity's head trembled fiercely!
He's talking about Rose!
