Chapter 686: Entering the City

"Hoo ..............."

Seeing the green dragon's body being dragged away, Emilia breathed a sigh of relief and let go of her hand gripping the hilt of her sword.

And the girl next to her had round eyes.

"Ai, Ai, Lady Amilia? He, they killed a dragon? ”

"Hmm......... It's a surprise, but since it's a courtroom......... It doesn't seem so surprising. ”

As she spoke, Emilia sighed.

"Also, don't call me Madam."

"But ........."

Looking at the girl beside her, Emilia only felt that the world was impermanent. In the cold winter of less than a year ago, she was just a fledgling god paladin, running behind Duanmu Huai like an ignorant puppy. As a result, it has not been more than a year now, and after the adventures of Neverwinter and the Dark Lands, she has now become the Knight Chief of the Church of Tyre in Neverwinterβ€”β€”β€” taking the place of Erebeth.

And this girl, the new god knight, became her subordinate.

Did Mr. Duanmu see me that way at the beginning?

Looking at the innocent, innocent girl in front of her, Emilia suddenly felt a little emotional, how could she become so old-fashioned when it had been less than a year.........

"I'm not a few years older than you, just call me Miss."

"Ah, yes, Miss Amilia."

"Let's go inside."

After all, Emilia had been running around with Duanmu Huai for a long time, and she had resistance, so she was only slightly shocked, and then immediately came back to her senses.

After all, in the dark region, the Inquisition is a ruthless character who chases after the drow elves and kills even the patron saint Rose, so what is a mere green dragon? Even if it's a red dragon and a black dragon, it's estimated that it will end the same way.

As for the queen of the multicolored dragon......... Well, to put it mildly, how did Emilia think that if that Tiamat dared to come to the scene, I was afraid that she would not end up with Rose.

After all, Duanmu Huai is not a good talker.

Emilia turned away with Tyre's paladins, while the others didn't have the strength to do so, in fact they were almost all standing there at the moment, stunned by the sight in front of them, their mouths bigger than eggs. This is also normal, after all, they all felt the terrifying power emitted by the green dragon, of course, it is not that there is no existence in the people present who can clean up the dragon, but .........

Thinking of this, everyone looked at the night guards who had returned to their posts with complicated expressions. There are many veterans among them, so they can naturally see the whole process of the battle clearly, and generally want to deal with dragons, either by some special means, or by using magic against dragons, after all, dealing with a dragon is really very dangerous and difficult.

However, these people didn't do this, they just crushed it head-on, simply putβ€”β€”β€” they were stronger than the green dragon, so they beat the green dragon like beating their grandson, and they were easily cleaned up.

Such a powerful guard is actually guarding the gate here?

How strong is the court?

At this moment, everyone's expressions became solemn.

It is clear that they are dealing with a powerful force beyond their imagination.

Although Emilia thought she was used to the crazy actions of Duanmu Huai, when she walked through the porch and came inside, the sight in front of her couldn't help but surprise Amelia.

Because she had been here with the investigation team before, Emilia remembered that just a few months ago, this place was still deserted, although those black-armored warriors were indeed building, but in Emilia's mind, the construction of the territory may not be completed in three or five years.

But as it turned out, Amelia's idea was wrong.

Passing through the porch of the side door, the first thing that catches Amelia's eye is a magnificent bridge, large enough to accommodate dozens of people shoulder to shoulder, stretching forward, and the river flows under the bridge, making a clear "bang-la-la" sound. On the opposite side of the bridge is a circular public plaza that spreads out from three main roads to the left, center and right.

And the most impressive thing is the countless buildings that look magnificent, elegant and delicate on the opposite side, they are all stone buildings, but the most prominent feature is that they are topped by a long minaret, these round minarets are slender and long, and high, like a knight's spear raised straight into the air.

The majestic appearance of these buildings, with their towering minarets, is imbued with an indescribable sacredness and solemnity in the sunlight, so that before they get closer, just looking at the complex from a distance, one instinctively produces a sense of awe.

In the distance, the metal church complex where the Inquisition is located stands proudly above these buildings, as if the temple on Paradise Hill overlooked the world.

sacred, majestic, mysterious, majestic, terrifying.

This was the first impression of Emilia when she saw the city, it was a feeling that was difficult to describe in detail, as a paladin, she had never seen such an architectural style, let alone such a magnificent complex, not even the palaces of the lords or even the royal palaces, I am afraid that they could not compare with the city.

And Emilia is obviously not the only one who feels this way.

She turned her head to look to the side, and saw that there were many people who had already cleared the customs not far away, and they were kneeling on the ground with tears streaming down their faces, clasping their hands on their chests and praying, as if they had seen some kind of miracle. The others also lowered their heads and walked forward slowly, as if it was a sin to make a loud noise in front of such a magnificent city.

"Good, so pretty..............."

Amelia's attendant was also dumbfounded, standing in place, motionless.

"Alright, let's go."

Emilia whispered, and then she took the little attendant who had come back to her senses and continued to walk forward with the priest.

For them, however, this is just the beginning.

When Emilia and the others crossed the bridge and came to the circular square, suddenly, several shadows fell from the sky and slowly fell in front of them. It was wearing armor, holding a sharp blade, and wings behind him.........

"Heaven, heaven, angel?!"

Not only was his little henchman stunned, but even Emilia was surprised. Angels, God's spokesmen, have always lived in Heavenly Mountain, and angels rarely appear on the main physical plane unless there is an emergency. And in this city, there are angels in charge of guarding?

But isn't the Inquisition unfaithful?

Emilia also hurriedly lowered her head and saluted respectfully to the angel in front of her, while she was secretly puzzled in her heart. After all, Duanmu Huai had also told them about the beliefs and teachings of the Inquisition, and according to Amelia's education, angels generally served the gods......... But there are no gods in the Inquisition to believe in.........??

"Mortals, what are you doing here?"

"Hello, Venerable Angel."

Emilia and the little attendant did not speak, and the old priest beside her hurriedly answered.

"We are the guardians of Tyre, and we have been invited here to meet with Your Excellency the Grand Inquisitor."

"I see, come with me."

Hearing the priest's answer, the angel nodded at them and then looked at the others.

"Representatives of the Temple, please come with me to the Inquisition while the others go to the Civic Center to complete the formalities."

After saying this, the angel flapped his wings and turned to walk towards the middle path, and the representatives from the various temples, including Emilia and the others, were also hurrying to follow at this moment.

Following the angel forward, Emilia also carefully looked at the surrounding buildings, the characteristics of the city are really very distinct, on both sides of the street, there are countless statues, their images are basically the sameβ€”β€”β€” these warriors are wearing armor similar to night guards, holding long swords and shields, with wings behind them, wearing helmets, standing silently on both sides of the street, looking like rows of guards.

In addition, the most eye-catching thing is the pattern of the skull.

Nearly every door has a skull and a warhammer on it, and they are equally silent, filled with some indescribable sense of oppression and fear.

For Amelia, though, she noticed something else.

That isβ€”β€”β€” the buildings here are very large.

That's right, Emilia could see very clearly, even the outer door of an ordinary building was quite tall. Although it is not as large as the main entrance of the church, it is nearly two meters high. And there's no dark alley like the other cities, and the narrowest roads are as wide as the main roads in other cities.........

Well......... Probably this is Mr. Duanmu's request.

I don't know why, at this time, Emilia suddenly remembered that when she was in Heim Fortress, it was so difficult for Duanmu Huai to enter the door, so that he broke through the wall directly in the back. Of course, given his height and physique, there is no way around it. While in Neverwinter, he also complained several times that the road was difficult to walk and the door was difficult to enter.

Could it be that it is because of this that Mr. Duanmu asked the doors and windows of this city to be made so big?

"Poof."

Thinking of this, Emilia couldn't help but chuckle, and when she heard her laughter, the little attendant next to her looked at her curiously, but fortunately Emilia hurriedly restrained her smile.

When they walked to the metal chapel of the courtroom, the delegates were amazed, but Emilia breathed a sigh of relief.

After walking for so long, I finally saw something familiar to me.

"Please let the delegates in, and the others will wait outside."

The meeting place was still the same hall, only this time, Emilia did not enter, and according to the angels, only representatives of the various temples were allowed to enter. So she could only stand in the hallway with her little henchman, who stared wide-eyed, left and right, apparently dazzled by everything in front of her.

But what exactly is Mr. Duanmu going to do?

Emilia stared at the door, lost in thought. She didn't know what was going on, only that Duanmu Huai had sent an invitation to the Church of the Gods in the name of the Inquisition, and that the temples that had received the invitation had sent high-ranking priests or priests to come. Even those who would not even attend the king's banquet were invited to the court.

What did Mr. Duanmu want to do when he summoned these people?

In fact, this is also a question for others.

"We're here, Mr. Inquisitor."

In the hall, representatives of the various temples stood there, gazing at Duanmu Huai, who was sitting on a chair.

"Excuse me, what is the matter with you summoning us here?"

"All here?"

However, Duanmu Huai did not mean to answer their questions, instead, he stood up directly, stared at the representatives below, and then spoke.

"Since they're all here, let's show up, there's no point in wasting time."

β€œβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”οΌοΌβ€

As soon as Duanmu Huai's voice fell, suddenly, dazzling brilliance fell from the sky, shining on the bodies of these high-ranking priests and priests.

When the brilliance dissipated, one by one shining figures slowly appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.
