The palpation on the door interrupted the psychic man's calculations, and with a wave of his hand, the psychic power ripped the door open.

"Your Excellency. ”

The smell of ** in the air made Miss Staff frown, but after adjusting her breathing, she still tried to make a calm demeanor, walked into the room, looked at eye level, regarded those messy scenes as nothing, and did not look at Edward**'s chest and abdomen: "Those gnomes gathered and demanded that you fulfill your promise and give them a living area located underground, saying that they were fed up with this dazzling light." ”

"Got it, these guys are really ...... in a hurry."

Edward replied casually, and the invisible psychic power tore up the robes scattered to the side, covering himself up.

The magic robe was wide enough to cover his body tightly from top to bottom in just a moment, but when he stood up, Miss Anna Su in front of him let out a subtle exclamation, and she twisted her face sharply, the flush on her cheeks had spread to her neck.

"Why, what do you see?" Edward's gaze rolled over the flush, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a malicious arc.

The staff lady had become more and more accustomed to a certain position of her identity, and Edward was relieved to leave all the messy affairs in the realm to her, but

"No...... Well, please respect yourself, Your Excellency. ”

Anna Su coughed lightly, and said: "I have no intention of asking about your personal life, but next time, please don't let me see these things again, as long as you say that it is inconvenient, I will not come in, otherwise, it may affect my degree of handling things in the territory." ”

This little girl, has she also learned to threaten people?

"Oh. It's not good to deal with it, too, there are more and more people in the city recently, and today I may have to send a group of about 2,000 soldiers back, and then their relatives may also have to come in June, and they also need to establish a set of orderly management methods. ”

Raising his eyebrows, Edward replied lightly: "Then within today, you can summarize the work in hand and hand it over to me, and I can use it to arrange a replacement for you." ”

"That'...... What am I going to do?" Anna Sue stared at the ill-intentioned curvature at the corner of his mouth, apparently having roughly guessed his intentions. But in the end, I couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, it's easy, I just don't have a handyman here, so you can just do some laundry and cooking, it's much easier than managing the territory." Some unscrupulous lord looked up and down at the young staff lady's long dress with crisp white frils. responded seriously: "Speaking of which, I just wanted you to do this job in the first place, so I made this outfit for you." How did you unconsciously become a city business? Hurry up and get things done, oh, you can help me wash this set of bedding in the afternoon?"

"You ......"

The beautiful face of the staff lady was already twisted in an instant: "How can it be...... My lord, there is so much work going on in the city at the moment that it is difficult for me to let go for a while. So, let's wait a few days and discuss this matter!"

"Oh. It's really a lot of progress, it's good, it's good, since you're thinking so much about the territory, it's going to be three days......"

"You go to die!"

Wait a minute –

"Phew. Die!"

Walking through the alley flanking Old Donner's oil mill, Baum lowered his head, glanced through his half-worn robes, and cursed in a low voice.

Pulling it in his clothes, Baum poured all the contents of the bag into his pocket, and threw the original money bag into the dung bucket next to him, and to outsiders, this thirteen or fourteen-year-old little devil dressed as a little aristocratic servant was just reaching out and scratching an itch in his clothes while walking, and there was nothing worth paying attention to at all.

This method of handling the money bag is not a good technique for an old gold finger like Baum, he was already very familiar with it when he was nine years old, but the luck of this skilled gold finger today seems to be really not very good, the prey just now looks like a fat sheep, but the bulging bag, looking at the heavy money bag is all green characters, not to mention the yellow croaker, not even the white skin.

"The way of the world is getting worse and worse. Complaining like the leader of the lair, Baum decided to find something to fill his belly first, he looked up for a moment, and then walked down Little Kenting Street towards Chisong Avenue.

Aka Song Avenue is the most prosperous commercial street in the city, with shops and workshops, rows of wooden houses of different heights forming the unique scenery of this neighborhood, travelers and merchants from the surrounding area gather here, horse-drawn carriages, heavy mules and horses pass by at all times, and the taverns and inns where the food is also the most delicious to receive guests from all over the world. Especially the long-established shop 'Harmony April'.

Of course, the prices of the things on this street are also the highest in the city, and even if you just eat a simple beef stew and mixed beans, you have to clean up the meager harvest so far.

However, Baum did not hesitate, there are fat sheep on Chisong Avenue, as long as he works hard this afternoon, maybe he can get enough harvest to eat a dinner of roast venison, even if he is unlucky, he is full at noon, and it is nothing to eat one less dinner.

As for tomorrow, that's tomorrow – everyone knows how to enjoy the day as much as possible, to live as happily as they can, and to wait until there is no way to go. This is a goldfinger way of life, it's a big deal to find a way to eat and live in prison, although it's a little worse, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you will starve to death.

"Stop, you little bastard!" After staggering a few streets, Baum suddenly felt that something was wrong—before he could turn around, a shrill shout rang out not far away,

Broken!

Baum shrunk his neck, and noticed that the big man who had just gotten out of the corner of the street, with a hideous face, did not wear a shirt until winter, just to show the tattooed figure on his body, and knew that it was the gangster leader of the southern city, Balawang, this guy did not deal with the old man, and he often surrounded the Goldfingers in the street a while ago, but in recent days I heard that he offended someone and ran away. But how did you come back so soon?

There was no time to think, so Baum ran away.

It's a pity that Lady Luck really doesn't take much care of the thief today, and as soon as she took seven or eight steps, one hand grabbed his vest violently, and threw him to the ground behind her with a flick, and before the dizzy thief could raise his head, he was hit the ribs!

Although he was a good gold finger, fighting was never Baum's specialty, and he could only shrink his body in the face of fists flying from all directions. Hide your hands in your arms - for a golden finger, their hands are the only thing that can be used to mix food.

"Phew, little bastard, go back and tell you old immortal guy, if you don't give up your position, I'll blow up the eggs of you little toads one by one!" a hand reached over and fumbled a few handfuls on his body. Drain the thief's earnings away, and then the shrill voice cursed, "Little fool." There are only copper characters on his body! This can also come out and mix? Today, the master is in a good mood. If you're smart, don't mess around in the wheat anymore, or you'll chop off those two paws if you run into them again!"

"Die, you guys!"

As the men faded into view, Baum slowly got up, rubbed his bruised cheeks, watched their backs spit out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and cursed in a muffled whisper. Then he got up before a few of the patrolmen approached, and staggered into an alley behind him,

He wasn't afraid of the patrolmen coming to arrest him, for it was all too common in the city to beat thieves. Those lazy patrol men don't care about this kind of small dispute at all, as long as they don't make trouble, have no interests, and don't mess with any big people, they don't bother to care what these lowly little beggars do, of course, when they are in a bad mood, they will also take action to maintain order - usually, they just find the slowest unlucky guy to vent their psychological anger, so staying here is likely to cause more trouble.

The heavy blow to his head kept his ears buzzing, and his stomach began to burn and hurt, and the thief shook for a while, and suddenly the sound in his ears became more beautiful, and he raised his gaze, and noticed a golden color, and the beautiful singing of the lyre,

"The great God of the Dawn blesses all beings on the earth, and under His radiance, all poverty, hunger, cold, confusion and sorrow are far away from us, and all the people of the world are stranded under your radiance, to feel your kindness and warmth, and to give their souls trust,"

In a daze, he went the wrong way and ran to the street of the Temple of Dawn?

The thief, who suddenly came to his senses, grinned.

His least favorite place is undoubtedly the Temple of Dawn and the Temple of the Goddess of Wolkin - the Temple of Dawn is especially so, its appearance is decorated with all kinds of gems, glass blocks and hundreds of pounds of gold, almost comparable to the treasure house of the legendary city lord, but this gold gem is full of magic protection, no gold finger can get any oil and water, just look at it can't reach out, this is the biggest torture for a gold finger.

But after thinking about it, he didn't turn around, but walked straight to that side, for he had heard that Lansendel was the best at helping others, and that the warm sunlight on his body seemed to have reduced the pain a little—not to mention that with a roll of his eyes, Baum saw a small group of people standing at the door of the temple not far away.

The seven or eight girls in white priestly robes laughed so sweetly, and the thief muttered, now that he has something to do, it's actually not bad to come and see - anyway, it's much better than those bitches on Lancao Street, at least it doesn't cost money, and he won't find a few guys to watch the scene with sticks to drive people away.

"Let joy and happiness gather around us, and finally return to the field of joy, where we find our true bliss!

The thief swallowed and glared fiercely at the soft-spoken woman, feeling a little resentful about why the priests of the God of Dawn liked to wrap so many white cloths inside and out.

"If you really bless me, Sister Priest, I just accidentally fell and still have a lot of pain on my body, can you give me a healing spell?" Baum stepped forward and asked the beautiful priest with a grin.

But this cheap appearance is better than an accident in exchange for a roll of the other party's eyes.

"His Majesty loves every life, and all can receive the warmth of his holy light, and only one gold coin is needed as a reward for healing. ”

"I'm sorry I didn't bring ...... today"

"Please keep your head up. You will appear, the morning sun will shine on you all the time, and he will protect you from evil, heal all your wounds, and purify you of all sin. ”

Hell, the morning sun is shining!

The girl's formulaic answer made Baum mumble quietly.

For he suddenly remembered why he hated the Temple of Dawn so much.

The thief remembered in a trance that when he was very young, he had a statue of the God of the Dawn in his house, which seemed to have a thin layer of gold, and it was one of the few things with golden light in his broken house, but when he was six years old. It seems that his family has been involved in a scam because of this, as if a priest of the Temple of Dawn lent them a loan shark, and the result is more and more, and he can't afford to pay it back......

In the end, the father was nowhere to be found. My mother seems to have died of illness.

And when he was emptied of his family by those debt collectors and lived on the streets, it was also a sunny day. But the north wind blew so hard that it could freeze through the bones! When I was tired, hungry, and cold. Where is the blessing of the god of the morning light? If it weren't for the old man who saw him on the street and trained him to be a golden finger, he would have died seven or eight years ago.

Or the god of thieves, His Majesty, can protect the poor bones!

"Phew, go die......" walked dozens of steps. Baum raised his head and stared at the glittering golden roof of the Temple of Dawn, "A bunch of debt collectors! Let your followers check what fills their stomachs. I ......"

The thief's voice paused suddenly, and then narrowed his eyes.

Today's weather is wonderful, autumn is crisp, and the color of the tile blue extends to the end of the view, clear as a waveless lake, without a single blemish. So the golden spire of the Temple of Dawn shone in the sun. Although the more weather like this, the fewer people want to look up, but the eyes of a top-notch goldfinger are always a little better than the average person's, so with this look up, Baum seems to see something.

A black dot.

To start with, yes...... However, just as my eyes fell, the thing seemed to get bigger and bigger.

There was nothing in the sky that didn't matter to Baum, birds, clouds, or anything in the wind...... But for some reason, at this moment Baum suddenly had another extremely bad premonition in his mind, so the thief turned around and began to run quickly, but did not forget to look back at the sky from time to time.

The shadow grew bigger and bigger.

At first it was the size of a fist, but soon it was the size of a man's head, and the thief ran three steps over, and it was the size of a basin! So Baum did not look back, he just ran desperately towards the corner of the street, and the noisy Li in his ears began to have a small sound, like a small whistle, but then the voice became more and more sharp!

Boom!

It was as if the world around me had darkened slightly...... Then there was the deafening sound, the sharp whistle that turned into a blast that tore through the air at the last moment! Then a storm came from behind him, Baum stumbled a few times, and the tremendous force swept through like a shock wave, and then the buzzing sound in his ears turned into a loud rumbling sound, and gradually joined again!

The ground trembled as if in fear, causing the thief to turn his head and stare at him wordlessly.

In his sight, the tallest buildings in the city, except for the castle of the city lord, were gone! The golden square, the walls decorated with colorful gems and glass, and the towering spire, had been submerged in a cloud of rising smoke and dust!

"Your Majesty the Shadow King...... Is this really your divine punishment?"

He muttered to himself in disbelief, looking at the shadows of the walls that were crumbling and crumbling in the dust, and for a moment he didn't know what he should do.

"Oh my God, the gods are above, what the hell is this?" "God, something has fallen from the sky! It's a trebuchet, someone is attacking the city!" "No! The horns in the city are not sounding, there can be no trebuchet!" "Is it magic? Is it a magician who misplaced it? But this magic is too powerful, isn't it?"

The rumbling tremors spread in all directions, and finally calmed down, as if the tide had receded, and the noise was re-propelled from the periphery to the interior! Curious people began to pour into the streets, approaching the place that they had not usually cared about, but now had turned into dust, and the sounds of speculation gradually converged into the noise that filled the surroundings!

"No!

A hoarse shout suddenly drowned out all the chatter.

"This is divine punishment!" cried Baum, his voice hoarse and high-pitched, as if frightened, as if he were about to laugh out loud, "This is God punishing wolves in sheep's clothing!"

"That man said it was divine punishment!"

“——”

"There are only two things in the world that are infinite, one is the universe and the other is human stupidity, and what I can't be sure of is the former......" (to be continued......
