Cathedral of the city of Coutus.

Dressed in black robes, Gregory stood quietly in the prayer hall, listening to his subordinates' reports before turning around.

"There was once a magician in a caravan in the desert who unleashed 'chain lightning' and called himself 'Allegri'?" he confirmed.

"Yes," one of his subordinates replied, "we have found a fellow in the caravan, and according to his description, it is indeed the evil mage Allegri himself. ”

"Well done," Gregory nodded in approval, "then there is a good chance that he will be in Kutu City, which is not only the largest trading place for the desert caravans, but also can get the information he wants." ”

"Another piece of news is that there was a fight in the Slave Bazaar yesterday, and a high-ranking fire mage unleashed two spells, among which were 'Flame Shackles', very similar to those mentioned in Lord Silves's character report. ”

Gregory nodded, his eyes burning, "Then it's almost confirmed, is there any news from the mercenary union?"

"They are reluctant to give any information. Another subordinate bowed his head.

"Your Excellency, I hope that the Church of Light will put pressure on it. He turned to the young bishop in white robe next to him.

"Are you really going to deal with Allegri in Kutu City?" the bishop said, with a slight worry on his face.

"Of course," a hint of fear appeared on Gregory's face, "or we won't be able to deal with him with any certainty when he recovers his strength." ”

"Hasn't Your Excellency the Grand Judge recovered yet?" the bishop asked, as if concerned.

"It's difficult, Your Excellency the Archbishop is trying to figure out how to solve it. Gregory replied.

"Master Gregory!" a subordinate suddenly hurried in, "Traces of yesterday's mage have been found in the North City, and Lord Cullen, the sheriff, has asked for our opinion. ”

"Let's go now," Gregory turned and glanced at the bishop, "Your Excellency the bishop will go with you, the relationship with the local security army will still need your coordination." ”

"This ......" the bishop looked embarrassed, looked down and thought for a moment, and finally sighed, "Okay. ”

Pakki is still healed from her injuries, and Cyrell stays home with her. Allegri paced out of Mendel's mansion at some leisure.

After hearing that there was a mountain dwarf settlement in the northern city, Allegri always wanted to check it out, and he also had the seal given by the dwarven priest in the redstone terrace, so he didn't think there should be any problem, so he didn't inform Cyrell.

Stopping a cab casually, Allegri stared at the street scene outside the car window, inexplicably in a trance.

The bustling crowd on the streets, laughter everywhere, but I don't know anyone.

This huge city, a huge country, and a huge world have thrown themselves into it, as small as sand and gravel into the sea.

Thinking of Bai Ji's somewhat frightened eyes, he sighed again, and when the "Victory Day Celebration" spread, he thought that this kind of fearful eyes should be commonplace.

After all, they are still different.

Despite the mountains and potholes, the mountain dwarves struggled to find some familiarity. The buildings in the dwarven ghettos are all heavy stone houses, and even tunnels have been excavated underground.

When the security army came to the door, the mountain dwarf opened his simple little eyes, and justified that this was dug up by their children when they were bored, and the security army had no choice but to let him go.

From time to time merchants came and went, and the wagons were pressed into deep ruts, which seemed to be either armor or heavy ore. There are very few people like Allegri, who stroll with their bare hands in a chic manner.

A dwarven craftsman, whose beard could not tell his age, looked at him suspiciously with a hammer and asked, "Something?"

Allegri shrugged, not squeaking.

A few bushy bearded dwarves next to him looked over, and one of them came over, carrying a huge axe on his back, and his face was full of guard,

"You're not a businessman?"

"No," Allegri shook his head, smiled kindly, and took out the seal, "I'm a friend of the dwarves. ”

The dwarf took it and looked at it over and over for a long time before he nodded, "I can't see it, you can go with me to see the elders." ”

Allegri nodded as well and followed him inside.

In the low house, an old dwarf with a gray beard looked at it carefully for a moment, nodded, and said with a smile, "That's right, it's a friend." ”

He handed the seal back and patted Allegri on the shoulder with his feet in a friendly way.

"Is there anything we need help with? The dwarf who led him in asked with a smile.

"I want to make a sword," Allegri pulled out a piece of paper in his arms, "the quality is not too high, as long as it is strong, but the sword needs to be made with this pattern." ”

"It's not very difficult," the dwarf elder looked at it and ordered him casually, "will you come and get it tomorrow, or will we send it to you?"

"I'll just do it myself. Allegri laughed too.

******

Allegri was just about to leave when a dwarf suddenly ran in out of breath.

"Elder, the vigilantes and a group of black-clad men are going to come in and search. ”

"What black clothes?" the elder frowned.

"It seems to be the church. The dwarf added.

The Church of Light has always been very polite to the alien races, after all, these non-human races do not believe in the God of Light very much. The attitude of the security forces towards them is not good or bad, and they often come to extort fees, but it is not a common thing to come with hunters.

The elder frowned, thought for a while, and snorted, "It's not once or twice that the security army has come to find fault, don't be afraid, gather everyone, if they dare to come hard, they will fight with them." ”

The dwarf excitedly agreed, and was about to run out.

"Elder, you're looking for me," Allegri stopped them after a moment's thought, "I'm going out to meet them, don't interfere." ”

"Looking for you?" the elder breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Allegri carefully, "We are friends, you are on the territory of the dwarves, there is no problem. ”

He turned, gave the dwarf a few words, and then turned his head and said, "Friend, I will let this kid take you out of the tunnel." ”

"Good. Allegri, who had already prepared the spell, nodded, he was afraid that the dwarves would be affected just now, and he was ready to fight hard, but it was best to avoid it.

Outside, there was already a commotion of clashes between the vigilantes and the dwarves, and Allegri arched his hands and followed the dwarves into the hidden entrance to the cave.

The tunnels are clean and spacious, and although Allegri has to bend over to avoid hitting his head, he has to admit that the level of the tunnels is quite high.

Laughing and praising the dwarf, I couldn't help but be even more amazed when I learned that this tunnel could reach the outside of the city directly, this is a vast and hidden project.

About a quarter of an hour later, the two emerged in the midst of the ruins.

Allegri squinted and reached out to block out the light, recognizing the terrain around him. Just after entering the entrance of the dwarven settlement, not far away, you can see several white-robed priests standing at the corner of the street and talking about something.

Bidding farewell to the dwarf, he carefully covered the entrance to the cave and strolled away.

Suddenly, Allegri subconsciously looked up at the corner of the street, and it happened that the guy dressed as a bishop among the priests turned his face.

Allegri was slightly stunned and couldn't help but smile.

It's a fate to meet thousands of miles away, Brother Todd.
