Chapter 410: A Companion Crisis
"What do I mean...... She's a vampire, don't you think?"
Duncan shrugged, "I understand, she's a vampire, a creature of the Dark Realm, if it had been more than ten years ago, I would probably have rushed over to fight her in the first place, and at least I would have to drive her back to the south of the Pale Mountains to feel at ease." ”
"But...... In the past ten years, I have witnessed too many things that cannot see the sun, and almost everything has a hidden hand of sin, ugly, and I feel that even the dark country is nothing more than that, so ...... For me now, the kingdom of darkness is not much different from the kingdom of humans, everyone has wisdom and has their own life trajectory, as long as it doesn't provoke me, why should I interfere?"
Duncan's words fell, and Kaka saw Leon's gaze and snorted, "Gnomes often deal with these creatures from the south, and I don't care. ”
Leon was silent for a while, then said, "What about them?"
"Katarina, they came over once, but I sent them away," Kaka said, "I don't think you need to worry too much, after all, it's for Sophia, and they should understand." ”
Now that Kaka and Duncan had expressed their attitudes, Leon temporarily relieved himself and said, "That vampire said ......"
Without waiting for him to finish, Duncan straightened up and said, "Since you have done that girl convincingly, then there is no matter for me here, and the next time we meet, I hope we will bring good news." ”
Duncan turned to leave, and Kaka also put on his coat and walked back, leaving a young man to grit his teeth helplessly at Duncan's back.
Although Duncan, who was "disrespectful to the old", laughed at a little. However, having such a strong man join in the future will definitely be a huge boost to Li Ang's overall strength. So the young man quickly forgot about the "unpleasantness" just now and turned back to Fiona.
A moment of silence ensued. Leon didn't speak, just stared into the other's eyes.
Of course, the vampire girl knew the young man's intentions, she tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "Leon, since this companion is so important to you, what if ...... I mean, if something happens to her that you don't expect...... What would you do to her?"
"There is no if," Li Ang said lightly, "Sophia will not be like you say, so I don't need to answer this question." ”
"If you have to know, that's all I can say. She will always be my companion, my sister, and I don't care about anything else. ”
Fiona lowered her head and pulled her hair, at this time there was a strange look in her eyes, but it was gone in a blink of an eye, and when she raised her head, her face was as usual, and she said, "Huh...... I'll remember that. ”
Leon put his hands behind his back and frowned deeply, "Miss Fiona." I've agreed to your terms......"
"Have you ever crossed paths with those weird priests and priests?" Fiona interrupted the young man.
Li Ang was a little impatient and said, "Sophia herself is a trainee priest, do you say there is an intersection?"
"Don't be in a hurry...... I mean, it was some clergy who took this beautiful girl captive. Can you think of this?"
"No way! You're lying to me again!"
This was Leon's first reaction, but when he saw the girl's serious expression, his voice was much quieter after a while. "Why? Who are they?"
"Most of them are clergy of the Holy See, eight of them. Among them was an old man with the rank of bishop, and most of the others were high priests. There are also some high-ranking priests, who are very powerful. ”
"The Holy See of Priests?" Leon felt that the name seemed somewhat familiar, and he thought about it for a while, and finally a flash of light flashed in his mind, "Sophia seems to have said that she herself came from an orphanage on the border between the Holy See and the Gold Coast Federation......"
"So...... Could it be someone who knows Sophia?" Leon muttered to himself, his expression softening a little.
"Sophia used to say that she was an orphan and grew up in an orphanage, or maybe her family sent her to an orphanage for some reason, and now they are coming back to her...... It's possible, isn't it?"
"Leon, don't think it's so simple," Fiona said with a smile, but there was a hint of coldness in her smile, "These people are all dead-headed, and they look at us as despicable creatures with their so-called belief that we are both white and black, and they can't do anything good!"
The young man glanced at each other, a little unimpressed by the girl's words, Fiona herself is a vampire in the dark realm, of course she will have different opinions about the priest and the priest, but this is understandable.
Fiona noticed Leon's expression, and her expression became serious, "Leon, if you don't trust my judgment, you will probably lose this girl named Sophia forever, I mean seriously, you don't regret it when the time comes." ”
Leon stared into Fiona's eyes, and a sense of crisis gradually rose from the bottom of his heart, and for some reason, he felt that he had believed the other party's words.
"Have you seen these people?"
"Yes, and I fought with them," the girl stood up, patted the dust on her body casually, and said with a disapproving expression, "But it's a pity that I lost, and it took a lot of effort to escape." ”
"Where did you see that?"
"North," Fiona winked at Leon, "I can take you there, and I can find the trail of them." ”
"Wait for me for ten minutes, and then you set off with us. ”
Leaving these words, Leon strode back to the manor, to the venue where he had not yet been able to leave.
Caterina, Melissa, Red, Yelena, and the mountain warriors were all gathered here, silent, presumably having received news from Kaka and Duncan, so they had already prepared.
"Everyone should know what's going on, I'm going to take some of the people and set off immediately, so it's up to you to do Campbell's next thing!"
Leon stood at the front and watched everyone, and began to distribute tasks before departure in an orderly manner, not because the young man was in a hurry, but because he had already learned that the political situation in the royal capital was unstable, in case the king died of illness, the entire kingdom was likely to fall into chaos for a period of time, and he must be prepared in advance, so that the enemy could not take advantage of the chaos to invade Campbell, so he could only deploy in advance, so that the affairs of the manor would not come to a standstill after he left.
At the same time, Leon's approach also proves his attitude - this time he left the manor to rescue Sophia, no matter how long it took or how difficult it was, he would definitely not stop until he achieved his goal. (To be continued......)
PS: (I will go out for three days early tomorrow morning, and the farmhouse that confirms the reservation has an Internet, so I will try to ensure that it is updated.) Ahem, ask for a recommendation ticket, it seems that the monthly pass can also be requested...... Do you have -0-)
