Chapter 50: Please Stay

"Brother, please stay!" Zhao Ming said loudly, his hands hurriedly pressing Sevita's shoulders.

Sevita was frightened by Zhaoming's move, and the subconscious of the perennial battle made him reach for the weapon on his waist, but he quickly realized that something was wrong and immediately took it back.

Zhaoming's face was full of sincerity, and he asked eagerly, "Are you willing to join the Chenhui Knights?" ”

"Huh?" Sevita's face was full of doubts, obviously not expecting Zhaoming to suddenly ask such a question.

"As a Knight Captain, I have the right to ask the Church for support if necessary. ”

It was not uncommon for the Knights of the Templar to be replenished by the Knights of the Imperial Order, and this kind of action was generally divided into the Pope's voluntary grant and the Captain's voluntary request.

Sevita wanted to be straightforward, but on second thought, it might have been a good idea.

It is reasonable for the Chenhui Knights, who are the first to face the annihilation, to ask the Pope for support, and Sevita and the others happen to be here, so it is reasonable for them to carry out it.

"And ......," Zhao Ming said, his eyes revealing a hint of sinisterness.

"I know the Pope is suspicious, so we're going to put on a play."

……

The banquet in the living room was staggered, and Ezekiel couldn't hold it anymore, so he quickly asked Cooper to call a few of his own soldiers to accompany him to the drink.

While they were having their best, Zhaoming and Sevita came out of the study and stood at the end of the stairs announcing something to them.

"Hold on to tomorrow's trip and stay in Black Rock City for a few days."

The knights who heard this order were puzzled, the mission had been completed, why not return as soon as possible?

But when they think about it, they can just stay longer, so why not?

"Come on, come on, go on!"

……

That night, the knights were drunk again, but this time Sevita was sane.

In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the church door.

Sister Bianca rubbed her sleepy eyes and pushed open the door, surprised to find two knights standing in front of her.

It's Zhaoming and Sevita!

Biancarben was a little resentful when he remembered the unpleasant thing before, but he politely asked them what they were doing for their late-night visit.

"We want to see Pastor Martil, we have something to ask for."

At the pleading of the two knights, Bianca had no choice but to wake up the sleeping old priest.

On the second floor of the church, three men sat in a circle, with a strange container in the middle.

The old priest Martil, who had just been forcibly woken up, held his spirit and slowly spoke: "Two adults, this is the training furnace. ”

Zhaoming and Sevita looked down, it was a small boxy box, a bit like the stove they usually used last year, except that its appearance was quite gorgeous, more like a work of art.

"Can I use this to send a message directly to the Sanctuary?" Zhaoming asked curiously.

Pastor Martial affirmed that it is an important tool for the connection between the various nodes of the Church, and that it is very valuable for the Pope to hire excellent magicians and top blacksmiths.

"Just write the message on a piece of paper and throw it in and burn it, and the messenger furnace of the Sanctuary will burn the message on another sheet of paper, and tomorrow it will be served in front of the Pope."

After listening to the introduction, Sevita took out a piece of letter paper and borrowed pen and ink from Martiel.

Soon, a private document presented to the Pope was written under the watchful eyes of two bystanders.

Sevita then handed it to Zhaoming, who took it and looked at it carefully.

"Presenting the throne, the entrusted task cannot be completed for the time being, but in order to achieve the intention, I am willing to lead the team to stay temporarily in the name of joining the Chenhui Knights, which is actually the duty of monitoring, and waiting for the opportunity to complete the entrusted task. Edict Knight Sevita. ”

Then Zhaoming patted the old pattern on the shoulder again, and said half-threateningly and half-pleadingly: "Priest, today's matter, God knows that you know what I know, and he knows, don't let others know!" ”

The old priest had no way to refuse, but he couldn't lie about the ethics and requirements of being a clergyman, so he finally made a compromise.

"As long as no one asks, I'll never tell you what happened tonight." Martil swore by it.

But Saivita on the side suddenly said worriedly: "Brother Zhaoming, is our move really feasible?" I'm always a little worried. ”

Zhaoming asked him to put his heart in his stomach, although this was a plan he came up with on a flash of inspiration, but there was absolutely no problem.

After speaking, Zhaoming threw the letter paper into the furnace, and the white paper quickly turned to ashes.

Almost at the same time, thousands of miles away from here, a fire suddenly lit up in a larger teleportation furnace.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the room, and the waiter on duty hurriedly approached to take a look.

As the flames died out, a white letter lay down in front of the waiter, who sank it in front of the Pope without stopping.

……

Early the next morning, the gates of Black Rock City opened, and a pair of cavalry departed in the direction of the Sanctuary.

At the gate of the city, Zhaoming rode a peerless shadow and looked into the distance.

This is yet another wave of emissaries he has sent to the Sanctuary, who will meet the Pope with a message asking for support.

This time difference was his plan, and if Sevita's letter and his own were placed in front of the Pope at the same time, the other party would be suspicious.

However, if he had received a letter from Sevita first, and had received a request for support at a time when he was worried about whether it would arouse suspicion among the Knights of Chenhui, everything would have become logical.

"Another big thing!" Zhaoming stretched, then returned to the town hall.

As for the Imperial Knights, their expedition had been completed, and it was not a good idea to just take them to eat, drink, and be merry every day, so Zhaoming decided to find them something to do.

As for the most suitable job for them, it is to help train the Black Rock Guard.

"Hey, everyone keep up with me, remember that getting more physical strength is the key to winning!"

Diesel the Imperial Knight, was leading the recruits through training, and his heavy armor was still fast enough for the Black Rock Guards soldiers to keep up with him.

On the other side of the school field, two knights were teaching the soldiers swordsmanship.

"Come on, spar with me!" Gawain, the knight of the Imperial Decree, invites a soldier to compete in swordsmanship.

The soldier lunged at him with his wooden sword held aloft, only to knock Gawain to the ground in just a moment.

The soldier got up from the ground in embarrassment, and said with some embarrassment: "Lord Knight, your speed is too fast, I can't keep up at all." ”

Gawain smiled and flicked a sword flower, walked up to him and said, "It's not that I'm too fast, it's that your hands are too soft, remember that if you want to be fast, you must hold your sword hard." ”

With that, Gawain picked up the wooden sword on the ground and handed it to the soldier: "Do it again!" ”

The soldier did as he was told, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the speed had really gotten faster! Although I still can't go through a few rounds, the progress is very fast.

Halfway up the mountain, not far away, Sevita watched this scene quietly.

"Maybe it's a good idea to stay here......" Sevita muttered to herself.

Fortunately, the brothers have no family members, so they have nothing to worry about, so it's okay to stay here.

I just don't know how they will react when they learn that they will join the Chenhui Knights in the near future?

Thinking of this, Sevita shrugged her shoulders and then rode her horse in the direction of the Dark Border, where he wanted to investigate the situation.

……

There are two mountains on the north and south of Black Rock City, the one in the north is the manor on top of Trisda, and the one in the south is the memorial hall of the Chenhui Knights.

At this moment, Trisda, the governor of Black Rock, pulled Zhaoming's secretary Vanessa to settle the account for herself.

In the warm pavilion, Trisda lay on the couch a little tired, her face full of wanton and delicate.

Vanessa, on the other hand, said with some concern, "Governor, oh no, Miss Trisda, I haven't been to work at City Hall for a long time, is this really all right?" ”

Hearing Vanessa's worries, Trisda sat up from the couch and said, "Don't worry, Lord Lord knows about this, he won't blame you, it's not only easy for you to help me, but you can also get a double salary, isn't it?" ”

Strictly speaking, Vanessa is not among the government officials. Although they are both responsible to the lord, she is different from Gruchy, she is not a civil servant of the government, but only the lord's private secretary.

Therefore, Vanessa has always been a little resistant to helping Trisda with her personal work.

But in the end, I can't resist the temptation of a comfortable office environment, relaxed work content, and double salary.

In the lord's office at this time, Zhaoming took a cup of tea from the maid's hand, took a sip and sighed.

"Well, there's really nothing you can do with Trisda."

Zhaoming looked up at the maid Elusa who was pinching his shoulder, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

"Elusa?"

"What's wrong, master?"

Zhaoming smiled evilly, stretched out his finger and hooked Elusa's pretty face and said, "In the future, I will be the master's secretary, and I will give you a higher salary than Vanessa!" ”

Hearing the master's request, Elusa shook her head a little embarrassed: "Master, I don't know too many words, so I can only be a maid, serving tea and water." ”

"That's it......"Zhaoming touched Elusa's little hand helplessly, and suddenly, he seemed to remember something.

"Grouchy!" Zhaoming suddenly shouted, "I have something important to look for you!" ”

Hearing the lord's call, Grouch immediately pushed open the door of the office: "I'm here, please command!" ”

Just now, under the reminder of the maid, Zhaoming remembered a project that had been shelved before - starting a school!

You know, this is Grouchy's New Year's resolution! Zhaoming didn't have time to take care of it because he was too busy, and he was a little reluctant to go.

Zhaoming instructed: "Immediately hire a teacher who can teach literature and arithmetic, and let Lesio design the drawings of a school, and this matter must be done as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!" The seasoned administrative officer had tears in his eyes, he didn't expect the lord to remember his previous wishes, and now he no longer had to worry about the children's education.
