Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Priest Wu Xian

There are people who like to bask in the sun and feel the gaze of the god of light, such as priests and paladins. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoSome people like to hide in dark corners, and the darkness can make them feel like a fish in water, such as assassins and thieves.

Upon entering, Erin and Bert discover that the diminutive humanoid creature is actually a goblin. With green skin and pointed ears, this creature hasn't been in the human eye for a long time. I heard that their entire race lives by stealing and robbing, such as taking advantage of the hunters who have just returned from the hunt to take sheep and order something. This kind of creature with a height similar to a dwarf has a far cry IQ, and the only outstanding IQ of the goblin may be how to pick the lock.

The little goblin led them into the house, and the five meters square was the Assassins' Guild, which was a warehouse. Seeing that they were puzzled, Frank pushed open a cabinet against the wall, revealing a black hole, and a downward spiraling staircase appeared in front of them.

Everyone went down the stairs, but the goblin did not follow, it seems that he was in charge of the lookout, the goblin has very good eyesight at night, and humans are almost the same as blind people at night.

Because there were no torches at the staircase, the three "blind men" were almost groping their way down, but fortunately, both Bert and Frank, who had been hiding in the dark for a long time, had the best eyesight among humans, otherwise Bert would have fallen to his death less than ten meters from the priest.

I walked down the stairs for a while, and I estimated that it was five or six meters above the ground, and the road in front of me was illuminated by torches. At this moment, there was a sound of talking from deeper underground.

After a while, the three of them came to the hall located underground. The two who came to the Assassins' Guild for the first time were stunned, there was such a large space hidden directly below the imperial capital of the kingdom, dozens of round tables were placed at random, and there were two or three people around each table, some were drinking, some were gambling, and no one seemed to notice the outsiders. There is a chair in the innermost center, which is supposed to be the seat of some important person. On the left and right sides of the hall, there are a number of rooms, and the one closest to the door has a scroll drawn on it, which is supposed to be the place where the task is assigned. There was also a red cross painted on it, which was the medical department they were going to. The whole hall is five or six meters high, and there are obviously some vents at the top. No wonder it was built so deep, the entire hall was at least five or six meters high.

Wouldn't it collapse? An irresponsible thought skipped through Bert's mind. Frank explained to them, "We in the Assassin Guild are fortunate enough to have a business relationship with a Dwarven Master Builder, and all the buildings are handled by the Dwarven Master. "Oh, I don't know why the always righteous dwarves are associated with the Assassin Guild, but the dwarves have always lived in caves, and this kind of underground structure is their forte, and they don't have to worry about the ground sinking suddenly.

I wonder how His Majesty would feel when he knew that there was such a huge hall dozens of meters underground.

Frank gently pushed open the door to the medical department, where an elderly man in a white monk's robe was reading a book. The League of Assassins is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and people of this level will generally enjoy high-level treatment in the Holy See, because the priest is different from other second-level clergy. A priest is a servant who works for God wholeheartedly, and he is followed by a large number of believers wherever he goes. Moreover, the bishops of the third-level clergy are selected from among the priests, and the three cardinal archbishops above one person and below ten thousand people are also selected from among the bishops. Suffice it to say, the Priest had the best benefits of all the clerical staff, and very few were even willing to leave the Holy See to take up other jobs, let alone join the Assassins' Guild.

Eileen and Bert were both from the Holy See, and they would be in awe of the clergy like the priest, and they both saluted the priest. It's just that what they didn't expect was that this priest, who looked very kind, did not return the salute, but raised his eyes and glanced at it.

"Bring everything home, Frank, are you a kangaroo? Oh no, kangaroos don't bring anything home, it seems like one of its kind will bring some. "One sentence offended all three people present, is this still a benevolent priest in the Holy See? Bert really wants to lift this priest's white robe to see what is inside? Could it be that he is just an old man wearing a priest's coat to cheat people out of money?

Shaking his head and desperately shaking off the thoughts in his head, he was still counting on him to save his life, it was not easy to find another second-level priest this big night.

Frank, who was called a mouse, seemed to have become accustomed to it, "Uncle Wu Xian, they are my friends, and in order to save me, Richard was injured by the Merovingian family's hired people, you can help me treat him." ā€

"What Richard Meroving, I'm dying of you when you say it. Wu Xian put down the book and looked at Frank, who was dragging him.

"Is Richard older than me?, why is the wound so far from my heart?" Wu Xian continued to mumble sweaty words, the old man didn't seem to be very good at talking......

Fortunately, he was talking in his mouth, and his hand was not ambiguous, and he walked up to Bert and looked at the wound carefully, Erin was afraid that he would not be able to see clearly, so he quickly cast a lighting magic, but the old man gave him a blank look, "I can see clearly!" so frightened that the magic elves who had just gathered together immediately ran away.

"Holy Spirit of Light, heal your brave. There was a chanting, and the dimly lit room was instantly illuminated. Bert felt a warmth in his body, the pain in his internal organs gradually disappeared, and the wound was slowly healing from the inside out.

The second-level priest's healing spell was really powerful, and after only a few minutes, Bert felt that his body had recovered. "If you go back and have a good rest these days, it will still hurt if you move around. I'll write you another recipe and go back and eat on time. Wu Xian turned and returned to the table.

After thanking Wu Xian, Frank took Bert and prepared to go back. After all, it's not early, and it's estimated that the mentors will come to them later.

"Brother Bert, do you want to come with us?" asked Frank as he escorted them to the door.

Bert turned his head and patted Frank on the shoulder, "I'm studying magic at the Academy of Magic right now, and I don't think my mentor will let me run outside all the time. Although it is not clearly stated, the meaning of the refusal is clear. As long as it is a person with a serious job, who would want to live this kind of life of licking blood from the knife edge, they are all miserable people.

Frank stopped talking, but didn't say anything more, waved goodbye to them, and returned to his room.

Then the goblin came out of a dark corner, "They are rich and noble, unlike us. Frank smiled wryly and sat down on the ground. He understands Bert's character, he is not the kind of person who looks down on the poor, on the contrary, he is very willing to help the poor.

The goblin approached Frank's ear and whispered, "Young Master, I think we'd better keep a low profile now, it's easy for them to target powerful people too early." ā€

"Well, I understand. It's just that this time they caught Richard, they should be impatient to make a move, and it will be a matter of time before they tear their faces. ā€

"Whether Richard has survived tonight is another matter. ā€

"What do you mean?" Frank doesn't understand what else can happen to Richard in a heavily guarded dungeon?

"You're overestimating our people, and you're underestimating those old guys. ā€

"Young Master, Oh no! Richard is dead!" a man hurried up from the ground, and he was one of the guards guarding Richard.

Frank immediately rushed forward and grabbed the guard by the collar, and the young man was so strong that he lifted the man off the ground. "What the hell is going on!"

"I don't know, we just fell asleep in a daze, and woke up to find Richard dead. The guard said tremblingly.

"Lost in spirits! useless things, I don't even know if I'm confused by my own medicine. Frank threw the guard to the ground and went downstairs in a rage. The goblin then called the guards to follow.

The dungeon is located on three underground floors, and the Assassin Guild has three floors, the first floor is the hall where Bert and the others came just now, and it is also their council chamber. Sending tasks, meetups, medical treatment, and more are all on the first floor. In order to make it easier to evade the Imperial Guards, the hall had four exits in four directions, guarded by four veteran Assassins on the ground.

The second floor was the Assassins' Guild's warehouse and the guards' accommodations, and the second floor had only one entrance to the first floor, which was located on the left side of the hall and was guarded by two people. The third floor is a place for the dungeon and some miscellaneous items to be discarded, in order to prevent the people in the dungeon from escaping, the exits on the third and second floors need to run through the entire guard's room, and there are two guards at the door of the third floor dungeon.

Despite the apparent lax security, all the guards were high-ranking assassins or thieves, and there were dozens of people gathering in the hall. Infiltrate the dungeon guarded on the third floor in front of so many people, kill people, and then abscond out. Wouldn't killing Frank be as simple as having a meal?

It took less than an hour from the time they captured Richard to the time he was killed, and it was terrifying for someone who had laid out such a sophisticated plan and would flee in such a short hour!

Seeing the bloody dungeon Frank angrily kicking the sleeping guard away, the guard who had just woken up from his sleep didn't understand what was going on, and saw Richard lying next to him who was still spurting blood out.

Even he, who had carried out countless assassinations, was so frightened that he screamed and jumped. "What the hell is going on!" Frank was not very old, but his status in the Assassin Guild did not seem to be low, and the guards still did not dare to be dissatisfied when he was reprimanded by a young man like this.

"Wait, the assassin is still here!" Frank suddenly turned his head and stared at everyone present.
