No, isn't it, Mark, this bastard just went to save the old man?
Looking at the third daughter, who was obviously an old acquaintance with Mark, Vivien felt a strange sour breath welling up in her mouth.
Sour!
Acid to death!
The only small luck was that Mark obviously didn't expect this trick either, and his stiff expression betrayed his heart.
"Wait, wait, what's going on?"
"Can you go and talk about it in detail?" The three girls all had sad expressions.
As a last resort, Mark asked for a small room and took the three daughters in.
Vivien's curiosity was about to explode, and she was too embarrassed to eavesdrop.
Instead, Abner saw through everything and whispered in Vivien's ear, "Poor girls! ”
"Ugh."
Abner explained it briefly, and Vivien immediately understood.
The children of nobles who have been exposed to demons or [anomalies], although they have escaped, there is not a bright future waiting for them.
According to the standard procedure: first they have to undergo a rigorous scan by the [Bright Eye], then they are carefully interrogated by the senior priest to confirm whether their spirit is tainted, and finally there is a long review period, they have to be locked up in the Bright Church or Monastery for at least a month, and they are determined to be basically no threat before they are released.
In fact, doing so far does not confirm that they have returned to normal.
According to past practice, survivors who have suffered [anomalous] events will often hide serious self-harm or even suicidal tendencies, and may even degenerate into cultists after a while.
They came out alive, maybe they really just picked up a life. The question is, in such a situation, what nobleman would dare to have such children? Their path to marriage was basically blocked.
Aristocracy is so realistic.
Whether it's for someone else's or for your own family.
This is why aristocrats often give birth to a bunch of children, even if there are one or two, and a bunch of spare descendants of the bloodline.
For the true nobles, that's another rule of the game. For example, the newly rescued Earl and Count Glock, as long as they are willing to pay a sufficient price, they can completely ask a Light Priest to be their personal pastor and follow them for a long time. This is tantamount to making the Church of Light endorse itself with the credibility of the gods.
For the children of the minor nobility......
Mark looked at the three teary-eyed chicks, and he was speechless.
"We're just the baron's daughters, and there's no way my father would have the financial resources to vouch for us to find a Priest of Light as a guarantor."
"Mark, if you don't save us, we'll be finished."
"When I was in my most desperate moments, I thought of you, I prayed to the gods, and you were the only one who answered my prayers."
"Our family's allegiance is to Earl Glock, and he can't protect himself."
was "besieged" by gossip, and Mark was embarrassed: "I'm fine, what do you want the maid to do, will you work?" ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the eyes of the three girls lit up.
"Of course we'll do the work."
"In order to cultivate the relationship between the children of the vassals and the children of the lord's lineage, we had to be sent to the lord's house as maids and learn etiquette when we were young."
"This is the strongest bond!"
"We don't want anything, just take care of the food."
Mark: "......"
Alas! The travelers from the Celestial Empire are really not familiar with the set of the Rite nobles.
Not to mention, think about it, once upon a time, the former owner of his body almost became the little white face of one of the three girls, and it took a long time for the feng shui to take turns and turn over to be the master.
Change a girl, Mark doesn't feel anything, just these three girls, it's really feeling!
It was at this moment that the last straw that broke Mark's festival came.
"Knock knock!"
"Come in." Mark was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that Conrad wouldn't let people in casually.
Oh, it's Helena, that's fine.
As soon as Helena came in, she saw the third daughter who almost knelt down to beg Mark, the surprise on her face flashed, and then she straightened her chest and abdomen, and said dignifiedly: "Mark, your investment has been successful." I've found a stock manager,
He will sell the stock he just received at a higher price, and conservatively estimates that he can make 20 times the profit! ”
When Mark heard this, he was shocked, but he asked Helena to put all the money down.
After a big gamble, he became a multimillionaire directly.
If he hadn't known that the Millennium War was coming, he would definitely not want to make progress and live a depraved life of drunken money.
But on the surface, he can't be so prodigal.
The great news in the ears of the three girls fell on Mark's face, and it became a "oh" word written lightly in the chest.
The kind of light wind and clouds made them stunned.
Mark calmly swept the three youthful Peugeot faces and smiled: "Don't be so pessimistic. If you are worried about the outside world's evaluation, I can ask the Destini family to show you a health certificate. As for being a maid or something, you really have no way to come back to me. ”
"Mark, I'm ......" Anvina and the others were stunned.
Seriously, Mark almost got chilled in the face. It's just that he held back.
Accepting a few noble ladies who once asked him to be a little white-faced maid was psychologically refreshing, but it actually didn't help Mark's career at all. On the contrary, it will be glued to these useless little nobles in the future.
If there was a choice, he would rather not touch this cause and effect.
"I still have important business, so you better go back and reunite with your family first. Something else will come later. Mark just walked away, leaving only a dashing back.
Mark did have an incident, and as soon as he went out, he was blocked by Storm Sacrifice Rennes.
"Well done, little ...... Cough! Now that you've killed that damn Knight of Famine, I'll keep my promise and serve you as Lord. Give me three days, and I'll give an account of the Storm Church, and I'll come to you. ”
The giant man in front of him was a little shorter than Conrad.
Mark can fully imagine that when he goes out in the future, the two iron towers will be by his side, at least he will feel safe.
Mark: "Okay, I'll wait for you!" I've been in church at night for the most part. ”
This great event that shocked the entire Rite Empire was like a storm raging on the sea, only to return to tranquility after the storm.
In the eyes of others, this is the end of the story.
Only those who truly understand the direction of fate will know that this is just a short respite given to humanity by the world before the next crisis.
Mark doesn't care so much, he seizes every opportunity to improve his strength and expand his team.
There is no doubt that he is the biggest beneficiary of this incident.
In addition to rescuing a vote of nobles, he also rescued Montgony, the high priest of the Sabbath Church, and Ranis, a priest of the Church of Literature, and won the friendship of the two churches.
It's just that as soon as he completed the task of saving people, he hurriedly rode on the Condor of Light and rushed to the Great Sanctuary of the Night to ask for the [Whip of the Night].
Originally, Knight was in a meeting with his subordinates, and when he heard Mark's request to see him, he announced a temporary adjournment to meet with Mark. I looked at my subordinates for a moment.
In front of the altar that was enveloped by the smell of night, Knight looked at Mark with his hands behind his back, and the expression on his face was not smiling.
"What's important for me this time?"
"Your Excellency, in the just-concluded incident of the Coming Minton. I got these things by accident. Mark respectfully handed over the two Blood Moon cards.
The first one was Inquisitor Charlie, and the other, of course, was Bishop John Brown.
"Oh?" Before Knight could speak, a majestic aura descended on the statue of the goddess behind him.
This familiar sacredness made Nate and Mark hurriedly salute.
"I've seen the Night Lady."
Why did this one suddenly jump out?
Just when the two of them were apprehensive in their hearts, they didn't expect that it was not the lady of the night who spoke, but the goddess of light.
"Humph! It's not your fault. Blame Brown's stupidity! The Goddess of Light complained a little annoyed, and then hid.
Immediately the voice of the goddess of the night sounded.
"Huh! Mark, it's you again! I'm getting more and more interested in you. ”
"Well, thanks to the Night Lady......" Mark didn't continue, but she understood.
"Although you are not my roll clan, I can't help but appreciate you for doing things for me with the purification team. So be it. Ethereal voices echoed through the Great Sanctuary, as if all the voices were converging on top of Mark's head, condensing into a flowing cloak.
The invisible power of the night supported the cloak, causing it to descend into Mark's hand at a gravity-defying descent.
As soon as he got his hands, the dice of fate marked him with the special effect of the cloak.
[Cloak of the Night Effect (Shadow Walking): The wearer can use it to shuttle between two shadows shrouded in darkness within visual range. 】
As for the cloak that will slightly increase the wearer's agility or something, this is the base exercise.
If you have to count it, this extraordinary thing given by the Night Lady can also be called an artifact.
The Night Lady gave her something and ran away.
The speed made Mark's face a little weird.
"It's okay, that's the character of the Night Lady." Knight comforted Mark.
"However, the card thing ......"
Mark didn't expect Knight to pull out a similar [Blood Moon Card] from his storage bag.
"Ahh
Knight smiled mysteriously, "Every transcendent who returns from the baptism of the Blood Moon will be given this ability to conquer their enemies and enslave their souls. I don't mind playing cards with you when I have time. ”
"Uh, okay."
The old man's game, is it really my bitter Sequence 7 Doctor Who can participate in it?
Mark didn't know that at this moment in the Great Church of Light, because of an oracle from the goddess, the situation in the Church of Light had changed drastically.
"Brown, that idiot, don't fool around if you can't lead troops!"
The will of the Goddess is absolute. With her words, the Brown family lost ground on the spot, which was equivalent to being beaten into the cold palace.
This is the sorrow of the ministers.
When the upper authorities no longer give power, the minister is a dead dog that can be thrown away at any time.
Lao De saw that his rival actually rushed to the street like this, and his mouth was crooked with a smile.
No sooner had Mark come out of Knight than Bishop Albert came.
"Mark, are you interested in receiving the Leminton?"
Mark:???
