Chapter 687 Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem!
It turns out that although the light is dazzling, the real thing that can make people feel is the shiny gold coins!
After being a little cautious, the attitude of the middle-aged clergy changed instantly, and politely invited Tang En and the others into a side hall, served tea, and politely told him not to move around at will, he needed to ask the adults or something.
Tang En smiled and nodded in agreement, and watched the middle-aged clergyman leave with the temple door before he shook his head with a smile and beckoned the other two high-level elders to sit back in their seats. I couldn't help but secretly sigh in my heart, gold coins are really a good thing......
"Hmph, what's the matter!" "Dog's eyes look at people...... There are only three Tang En in the small side hall, so the high-level old man instantly put away his previous respectful expression and pursed his lips with great disdain.
The other old man also nodded in agreement, his face showed disdain, and he sneered twice: "Hehe, if there is no us, these parasites can only drink the northwest wind!"
This is the truth, and Don understands it after being reminded just now.
After all, the City of Light is different from other places, although the clergy here appear to be much higher status than the clergy in the church outside. But the opportunity to actually reach out and get good oil and water is extremely rare.
After all, there are many believers here, and there are many people. Even if it is a big man with a noble status, in order to influence, some excessive things dare not be done casually. In this way, not to mention the low-level middle-aged clergy just now, as well as the light knight who guarded the door, and so on.
It is precisely because of this that after knowing that Tang En and them arrived, these people deliberately put on an enthusiastic or high-minded appearance, waiting for Tang En and them to take the initiative to pay respect...... Roughly speaking, it means that you want money. I want a face, too!
Got to know these things. Don touched a few thick golden tickets in his arms. I can't help but feel a little more confident about the situation I will face next. As long as there is desire, it is easy to do, and what can be solved with money is not a problem!
But then, Don and the others waited for a long time in this silent side hall, and it was not until noon, when the hunger pangs in their stomachs appeared, that the door was finally pushed open......
The visitor was an old man with white hair and sunken eyes, dressed in a dark red robe. The pattern on the collar is intricate and delicate.
Seeing this, Tang En and the three of them got up instantly, and respectfully gave a half-body salute: "I've seen Lord Byron!"
Byron, Cardinal, one of the supreme leaders of the Northern Temple.
With an expressionless face, Byron didn't seem to see Tang En and the others, his expression was gloomy, and he walked straight to the top of the side hall and sat down.
It's not good...... Tang En exchanged glances with the other two high-level elders, making a frightened look, bending down and not daring to lift up.
Silence, silence! A faint light shines through the stained crystal glass. Sprinkle a glass on the ground. A faint commotion came from outside the house, and gradually faded into obscurity.
I don't know how long it took. waited until the two high-level old men bent over for a long time and their legs trembled, and a cold snort finally broke the silence of the side hall, "Hmph, you did a good thing!"
As the words fell, a piece of paper floated down from above and reached Don and them.
Don leaned over to pick it up, swept his eyes, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
On the paper, it was written that the temple's elite team had been wiped out. Tang En originally thought that the temple didn't know about this matter so quickly, and he didn't want the other party to have already received the news...... But when he looked at Owens at the check-in place, Don was suddenly stunned.
Bang, bang...... Seeing this, the two high-level old men had weak legs and pale faces, and immediately knelt on the ground.
Wow, is it okay to be a little more reserved...... Tang En scolded secretly, and helplessly knelt on one knee, forced out a cold sweat, and said urgently, "My lord, please listen to our explanation, there is another secret in this matter." β
"Explanation......" Byron narrowed his cloudy old eyes, his face was full of coldness, "a Divine Grand Knight Chief, five Templar High Priests, more than ten high-level Light Mages, and hundreds of Divine Light Knights...... And what explanation do you have to tell me? Why don't you die!"
Bang, slammed the seat hard, and waved his hand to shoot out three light arrows, instantly hitting the three Tang En below. Bang bang bang...... Tang En and the others naturally didn't dare to hide, their chests were stuffy, their mouths opened to spew blood mist, and they rolled to the threshold of the side hall in a row.
Thanks to the young master's preparations...... During the rolling, Tang En pressed his chest, and the water bag filled with blood and water in it suddenly burst, and the clothes on his chest were instantly soaked with a large piece of blood, looking extremely miserable.
There's no way, Tang En's perverted physique is there, no matter how high Byron's strength is, as long as it's not a dead hand, a little punishment of this kind of Cheng DΓΉ's attack really won't hurt him.
Of course, on the surface, he still looked dying, complaining bitterly, "cough cough...... Adult, ahem...... Listen to us, and if you're still dissatisfied, it's not too late to kill us, sir......"
Byron's face sank like water when he heard this, and he didn't say a word.
Tang En only took him as a tacit acquiescence and quickly told the old man in brown that he was a traitor. You must know that although Zachary's identity is the head of the Bounty Hunters Guild, to put it bluntly, he is a puppet, and the actual power can only cover the affairs of the branch guild, such as the appointment and dismissal of characters such as the old man in brown, which can only be decided by the high-level of the Temple of Light.
Therefore, Tang En and the others are now insisting that the old man in brown is a traitor, and it is not on them that the reinforcements are destroyed, but on the unknown person of a certain high-level inspector in the temple.
Moreover, from Zachary's mouth, Don also knew the general situation inside the temple. It's not as united and fraternal as it seems. On the contrary, they leaned into each other very fiercely. Behind the old man in brown stood not the Byron in front of him, but another big man in the temple.
In fact, to put it mildly, this Byron has something to do with the characters behind Zachary, which should be the reason why he just gave a slight punishment, instead of shouting and killing directly as soon as he came up.
Sure enough, although Byron's expression was still gloomy, when he heard that the old man in brown was a traitor, his eyes flickered a few times, and he seemed to be a little touched.
Tang En was overjoyed when he saw this, there was a door! Hurriedly striking while the iron was hot, and continued,
β...... It's all this despicable villain, who killed and injured most of the guild members and killed all the adults...... We didn't even get to see the reinforcements all the time...... Now that the despicable villain has been ambushed, and we have found a few letters in him that have not yet been sent, he, he is still trying to kill us all...... Your Excellency, now that his body and letter evidence are outside the temple gate, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to verify it......"
This statement is naturally false, but with the old man in brown being killed by Tang En, this matter has already been determined. As for the evidence of the letter, it was made by Tang En and two other high-level elders...... At this time, it doesn't matter at all what is fake or anything, what matters is how to find someone to carry the black pot and how to save your own life!
Those two high-level old men can mix with their current status, and they are naturally old and sophisticated. Tang En started, and they immediately had the courage to keep shouting grievances, and the old tears were full of tears, which was really sympathetic.
"Shut up!" snapped, echoing through the hall. Byron squinted his old eyes, a cold glint flickering, "That's all?"
The two high-level old men trembled when they heard this, only to think that Byron was murderous, and their faces suddenly turned to ashes.
However, when Tang En heard this noncommittal tone, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "Of course not, my lord, I still have a piece of evidence here......
After the words fell, he got up crookedly, trotted all the way to Byron, blocked the sight of the two old men below, reached out from his arms, and took out two thick golden tickets stained with blood.
Then, he moved his palm and pointed the 10,000 numbers on the golden ticket, symbolizing the maximum amount, to Byron, which was very conspicuous.
Don En is also a gamble, Byron is in a high position, and it seems that he doesn't need to pay attention to things outside of his body such as money at all, but as I said just now, this is the Holy Light City, and there are too few opportunities to make oil and water.
The profits earned by the Bounty Hunter Guild every quarter are directly given to the Temple Guild, not to the Holy Light City. Of course, this quarter's profit is now in the hands of Don, and he honestly swallowed it...... In any case, the money would never have passed through Byron's hands.
Therefore, as long as Byron is greedy for money, he should not refuse the temptation of at least two million golden tickets, even if it is bloody!
The side hall fell silent again at this moment, for a second, two seconds......
Don's lowered gaze grew colder, and his long narrow eyes narrowed slightly. He had come this time to find evidence, and naturally it was impossible for Byron to be left to deal with this matter. So if this plan fails, Don will strike in an instant and kill Byron in front of him!
Three-second, four-second...... The dagger slipped down the cuffs.
The two of them were so close that they were only a few steps away, and within such a range, Don was confident that he could kill anyone!
Five seconds! The red robe waved lightly in front of him, Tang En only felt a light hand, the void shook it, and the two thick golden tickets had disappeared.
"Ahem...... coughed a few times, Byron glanced at Don meaningfully, and nodded slightly, "Since there is indeed another hidden meaning in this matter, then I need to think about it carefully." Well, you guys go back first. β
After a pause, he straightened his robe, "Don't worry, the temple will not wronged any innocent person." β
Pay attention to people...... Secretly sighing to himself, Tang En nodded knowingly, and bowed: "Thank you, sir." β
Seeing that the situation was turning around in an instant, the two old men below couldn't help but be overjoyed, got up and bowed down again and again, "Thank you, thank you, your ......."
In the ecstasy, they couldn't help but wonder what Zachary had done just now, which made Byron change his mind directly in just a few seconds.
However, Rao wanted to break their heads, and they didn't expect that 'Zachary' would be so bold to carry the guild profits on their bodies and give them away generously...... Of course, if it's not his own money, Don won't care......
Just when the atmosphere in this side hall eased instantly, and after a few conversations, Tang En and several people met each other and said goodbye, suddenly, a rapid shout came from outside the hall,
"Who...... Uh, you're meeting with an important guest...... Knight Sergei Summer, you can't enter, you can't enter...... Adults, adults......"
