Chapter Ninety-Seven: Returning Home

As soon as the riots in the barracks subsided, Antonio gave the order to burn the bodies on the spot. In the firelight mixed with the smell of corpses, his face was as cold as ice. Although the casualties caused by this sudden riot were small, it had already had a bad impact on the morale of the army.

Rumors of plague and the undead began to spread among the soldiers, and even the blessings of the Maple Leaf Sisters could not remove the seeds of fear and doubt in their hearts. Although Katyusha had wiped out all the undead creatures in the shortest possible time, a slight rift had already appeared in the prestige of the Holy Sister in the hearts of the soldiers.

The soldiers, who had just been celebrating the victory in the war, suddenly realized that they were about to face an even more formidable enemy.

The night in Istalon was similarly ablaze, with the temple of Ludern being set on fire, and black smoke blanketing half of the city's sky. Fortunately, the Ludern Church bought all the houses around the temple and built them into a garden square over the years, so the fire did not spread to other urban areas.

The fire was extinguished after dawn, and the temple burned to the stone frame, and melted gold water flowed all over the ground, mixing with the black soot in a disgusting way. All the clergy who remained in the temple were killed, and none of them were spared.

Antonio led his army back to the division overnight, and as soon as he entered the city, he saw this smoky and burning scene, and he couldn't help but see darkness in front of him. High Priest Ludern, who was with the army, with straight eyes and dull eyes, stumbled to the ruins of the temple, looked at the puddles of gold water at his feet, spurted a large mouthful of blood from his mouth, and fell on his head.

Although Ludern's sacrifice was born from the group of merchants, he was also a true cleric with a complete system of divine arts. The temple itself has spent a lot of money to arrange elite defense forces, even compared to the castle of the White Lion family. In this way, the temple is well guarded and well-protected, and even if an unexpected fire occurs, it can be extinguished in time, and it is impossible to let it develop into an irreparable situation.

Unless...... Not an accident?

The only possibility of the big man present secretly chilled in his heart, so far no survivor of the fire has been found, which means that the temple of Ludern last night has been bloodied. When did such a terrible wave of dangerous forces, or terrible dangerous people, appear in the city of Isttalon?

The returning army did not have time to recuperate, and immediately threw itself into the defense of the city, and imposed martial law on the whole city. Antonio issued two secret orders in succession, searching the whole city for the minions of the Cursed Sect, and if they resisted, they would be killed!

As Tiana teleported out of the mage tower of the blue light, a team of elite soldiers in full armor awaited her, as well as an arrest document for temporary detention.

"Miss Tiana, there was a riot caused by undead creatures in the barracks last night, and after a preliminary investigation, we suspect that you have some suspicions, please come with us to investigate. ”

Tiana lowered her head and carefully looked at the document read by the captain, shook her head, and said, "This signature is not the handwriting of Master Antonio, what authority do you have to forge the paperwork?"

She was not talking to an officer of the Inspectorate in a white hat, but an elderly nun standing by with her arms crossed.

"It's not suspicious, it's just your doing, Sister Marivian has already seen through your little tricks, but it's just more troublesome to explain to the lord. This document was signed by Mr. Pross, who also thinks it necessary to investigate your mysterious woman. Katyusha had a playful smile on her face.

"I advise you not to resist arrest, it will not be good for everyone. ”

"I'm really flattered to be here in person. Tiana sighed and handed over the staff in her hand: "Besides, I don't have any secret secrets. ”

"Whether you have a secret or not has nothing to do with me, that's something for Mr. Pross to consider, and personally, I just think you're an eyesore. Katyusha took the staff and looked at the diamonds set in it, a smile flashing across her face.

"Don't try to perfunctory me with this stick, it's not a magician's specialty. The soldier tied her hands behind her back, tied her fingers with thin threads, and looked for something in her mouth to gamble ......"

Before Katyusha could finish speaking, she suddenly tilted her head reflexively, as if she was dodging something like an arrow. She came back to her senses and glanced coldly in the direction behind her, and when she looked back at Tiana, her face finally became serious.

"You really have accomplices!"

"Just friends. Tiana had an indifferent smile on her face, "Lord Katyusha, after all, we are still on the same front, how about we keep some decency for each other?"

"Cut, cunning woman. Katyusha snorted coldly, gave up the urge to tie up the girl, waved her hand to let the captain with the paperwork step forward to deal with it, and walked to the side to close her eyes and recuperate.

On the rooftop of a classroom at a public college, El slowly retracted his bowstring, carefully tucked away his weapons and equipment in a hidden place, and changed into a set of college uniforms.

Neither Lolana nor Master Stephen had returned to the Tower last night, and it seemed that they had stayed with Count Snecker, and they didn't know what plot was going on in the dark. Things are too complicated between the big guys, and El feels that his brain is still not enough, so it's better not to mix it up. As long as you are sure that Lolana still has the power to protect herself, there is nothing to worry about.

The city gate has been pasted with a portrait of a robber in leather armor, and the bounty is actually very expensive, and you don't need to think about it to know that it must be the noble swordsman who was beaten yesterday. As a subordinate of the minister, he was beaten like a dog in Isttalon, and the face of the White Lion family was not good-looking, so it was understandable to cooperate with him to offer a reward to mortals.

It's just that the robber in the portrait didn't show his face at all, although the equipment is also eye-catching, but who knows which number one person is inside?

After changing into his school uniform, Elton felt a lot more sunny. His body is already relatively thin, and no one can see the real muscles on his body without taking off his clothes, and his appearance is not much different from the students in the academy.

The uniform of a public college is a status symbol in itself, and when you walk down the street in a school uniform, the guards guarding the door will nod your head and greet you, and you will not think of a wanted notice on the wall at all.

El passed by Master Powell's workshop and took a look, it was empty. The old man has been a local snake in Istalon for many years, and wherever he hides from the limelight for a few days, outsiders can't find a trace at all. As long as he waits for the minister to leave, he can still come back and continue to live his little life of grace.

According to the old man, the current lord Antonio has to call him uncle, and who else dares to settle accounts with him?

After turning around and seeing that there was nothing to worry about, El hesitated, but raised his leg and walked towards Jupiter. It's been so many days, and I still have to go home to see it to be completely at ease.

For the past two days, he has been wrestling with the prophecy that the kobold made for Tika, and compared to the vague words of the astrologers, the kobold's prophecy can be described as unpretentious, with no adjectives or metaphors, just a simple account of one thing - Tika's death.

Would I have avoided this tragedy if I had been far away from her?, El asked himself this question in his heart over and over again, and even after being enlightened by Lorana, he could not untie the knot. In that life-and-death struggle, he was still thinking at the end of his life, if he died like this, would Tika be saved from the prophesied tragedy?

Pushing open the courtyard door, he heard the sound of running down the stairs with a flutter, and then a soft and delicate body flew into his arms.

"You're finally back, woo woo woo ......"

Seeing the cute appearance of the little maid crying and laughing, the chaotic thoughts in El's mind suddenly disappeared, and he hugged Tika's body tightly and kissed her the cheek.

"I'm back, Tika. ”
