Chapter 10: Counting is Counting

In the hospitality hall, the moment Mira's voice stopped, the atmosphere became extremely heavy.

Even Red, who doesn't know much about fighting other than force, can feel the sinister in it.

The people behind the scenes who provided information about the witch to the Cathedral of Rafa were undoubtedly motivated by the viciousness of Roy's death.

To the Temple, any person or force that has any connection with the Wandering Witch is a heretic.

Every witch must be in the hands of the temple!

There is only one fate for heresy, and that is to be tied to the stake and burned to ashes.

Today, if the Templar who came was not Lord Blackstone's former friend, and had been replaced by any other Templar, Roy's best outcome now would have been to be tied up and thrown into the Temple's Divine Punishment Prison.

There is no waiting for the appointment of the Imperial Parliament succession.

And the relationship between Lord Blackstone and Templar Mira is something that even Red, who is Lord Blackstone's attendant knight, has almost forgotten, let alone the others.

In other words, if it weren't for this secret piece of information, which was almost impossible for others to know, to save Roy's life, Roy would have died.

And the people behind the scenes who can calculate so precisely will most likely have the means to deal with Roy, who was sent to the Divine Punishment Prison.

The twists and turns in this made Red tremble just thinking about it, but what made him more concerned was what Mira said about the "unpredictable" things that Lord Lord had to do: "Mr. Mira, do you know what Lord Lord is going to do?" ”

Mira shook her head, her voice sad: "I don't know, in the letter, Jace wrote 'Don't come to me' three times, and I also found out through the secret channels of the temple, Jace completely disappeared seven days ago, that is, after sending the letter to me. ”

Hearing this, Red fell silent.

Although he has absolute confidence in the Lord, this time even the Lord himself said that "life and death are unpredictable", it is conceivable that he must be going to do a very, very dangerous thing, and he is not even willing to let his friends and family know what to do, for fear of being dragged down.

Temporarily suppressing his worries about Lord Lord, Red turned his head to look at Roy beside him.

The Lord's situation is certainly not good, but at least he has the strength of the Silver Knight, and there is always room for maneuver, but Roy ...... Although he showed an unheard-of knightly talent this morning, the time for cultivation was still too little, and although he began to absorb magic particles, he would definitely not be the opponent of a full-fledged knight if he really fought.

After all, in addition to physical fitness, the strength of a knight is determined by the quality of equipment, the training of weapons, combat experience, and so on.

But what he saw made Red slightly stunned.

Unlike the imaginary expressions of panic or fear, Roy's face at this moment was very calm.

As a Bronze Horseman, Red can tell whether a person's performance is true or not through subtle expressions, unless the other person is a true expression master.

And in his opinion, Roy is really in a stable mood now, without a trace of panic.

Red can see this, and Mira, who is sitting on the opposite side, can naturally see it.

This kind of calm performance in the face of crisis made Mira appreciate it very much: "Jace has a good son. ”

"Uncle Mira, did my father leave you any useful news other than letters?" Roy looked at Mira and said in a deep voice.

Lord Blackstone did not inform him as a son about the succession of the title as soon as possible, but sent a message to his former friend Templar Knight Lamy, and it is conceivable that Lord Blackstone at that time probably had anticipated his and Roy's situation.

In this case, if Lord Blackstone wants to explain or inform him, it will inevitably go through the channel that Templar Mira considers "safe" in Lord Blackstone's mind.

"Yes." Mira nodded, and took out a brass-colored key from her bosom: "At the same time as sending me the message, your father also sent me a key, and the letter explained that I will give you this key, with this key, you can enter the family treasure room, which contains the things he left for you." ”

Receiving the brass-colored key from Mira's hand, the slightly heavy feel made Roy realize that the material of this key is anything but simple.

As for the family treasure room that Mira said.

This place Roy had gone in and rummaged through a few days ago in order to find "magic items", except for some gold, silver and gems, there was nothing of value, and now it seems that there should be a hidden place that he did not find.

"Okay, I've told you what I should tell you, and it's almost time for me to leave, and I'll let you know as soon as I have news from your father." Mira nodded to Roy and was about to get up and leave.

At this time, Roy suddenly said in a loud voice: "Uncle Mira, please wait a while......"

Hearing the retention, Mira paused slightly, and then saw Roy winking at him: "You haven't carried out the mission yet, just go back like this, isn't it a little disappointing for some people?" ”

Hearing this, Rami immediately reacted, and his eyes brightened when he looked at Roy: "Good boy! It seems that the Tulumbuir family will not be lonely in your hands! ”

……

Ten minutes later, the news that Roy Turumbel, the son of the Lord of Blackstone, was escorted to the Divine Punishment Prison by two Divine Punishment Knights spread throughout the Blackstone Territory.

The specific reason is unknown, but the person who shot it was the Divine Punishment Knight of the Temple, and anyone with a little knowledge can guess that it should be related to the wandering witch.

After all, Roy is the son of the Lord, and anything other than the witch is a crime, and it is handled by the Imperial Inquisition, not the Temple.

From Roy being detained and walking out of the Lord's Mansion to being pressed into the closed prison car, the whole process was witnessed by dozens or hundreds of residents of the Blackstone Territory, and if anyone else asked, these residents could even accurately describe the appearance of the Captain of the Blackstone Lord, Rad, who was so angry that he trembled, and Roy's embarrassed expression.

It can be seen that this matter is true.

Roy's arrest caused an uproar in the entire Blackstone Territory, after all, the Turumbuir family, as the lord family of the Blackstone Territory, is not very good for the lords, but it is not bad, at least it can keep the lords alive, compared to other border lord families, it is already very good.

And ten minutes after this incident, on the edge of the black stone collar, in a very ordinary hut, a sneaky figure released many carrier pigeons, and he himself disappeared along the shadow of the eaves.

……

In the middle of the night when the moon stars are sparse, in a small border town like the Black Stone Leader, except for the vicinity of the lord's mansion, it can be said that they can't see their fingers, and the leaders basically fall asleep early after the sun sets, life is not easy for them, unless there is something important, otherwise no one will waste kerosene to light lamps at night.

Under the cover of night, the two figures blended perfectly into the shadows, and entered the lord's mansion without anyone noticing.

The dim kerosene lights reflected the faces of Roy and Mira.

"Excuse me, Uncle Mira."

Roy bowed slightly to Mila beside him and thanked him.

"Where." Mira shook her head and looked at Roy with a look of satisfaction in her eyes, as if looking at a brilliant junior: "It's just a small thing. ”

"The bait has been dropped, and the next thing is to wait for the people behind the scenes to take the bait." Roy smiled, looking at the dark night sky, dense pitch black, like a "spider web" draped in the black stone collar, just waiting for the unsuspecting prey to enter it.
