Chapter 172: Recruiting Mercenaries

"Planting a blame, it must be a blame, right?"

Lance said without thinking.

He frowned, vaguely feeling that this must have something to do with the alien plague demon mentioned at the time, or some greater conspiracy.

"Lance, do you know that the clergy of the Church are blaspheming the Twilight God by wantonly depriving others of their lives, and the slain Presiding Judge Alec Charles is no less important in the Inquisition than my father, but...... But it was like you said, it was a false accusation, and at the time I thought it was just a power plot against my father, because of this incident, my whole family was put under house arrest by the church, and then I contacted the magician - Libert Grindada, and the witcher Bruce Gonzarta through special methods, and with their help, I found out that this was a huge conspiracy against the whole church. ”

"Gad, didn't I say that since you found out that this was a huge conspiracy, why didn't you explain it to the upper echelons of the church?"

"Hey...... Lance, I thought the same as yours at the time, and later Libert and Bruce even found some clues about the current first presiding judge, Tobias Christian, colluding with the alien plague, but there was no direct evidence, after I learned the news, I told my father about these things, but he just shook his head calmly and asked me to keep this matter a secret, although I didn't understand what my father was going to do, but I still chose to remain silent. ”

Gard let out a long sigh, and seemed a little thirsty after talking too much, and he took a sip of his glass.

After putting down the cup, he shrugged his shoulders helplessly and continued: "Soon after, the Church, under the auspices of four cardinals, began a public trial to kill the fourth presiding judge, Alec Brown. Charles's suspect is my father Hilger, but since there is no direct evidence that my father did it, the final result is only to remove the Mora family members from all positions in the church court, and expel the Mora family from the church in the name of blasphemy against the Twilight God, and at the same time deprive everyone in our family of titles, that is, now I am an ordinary Twilight God believer, and at the same time, my father is also required to be grounded and not to leave the family territory located in Sogman. ”

Listening to Gard's narration, Lance did not interrupt Gard's words, he just looked at Gard and Blexar silently, and even Lilith stopped what she was doing and took Lance's hand a little overwhelmed.

The gap in status made even Gade, who had excellent cultivation, have a trace of loneliness and unwillingness on his face, as well as anger.

Although his tone didn't sound too emotional, Lance could feel that Gad was holding back the fire in his heart.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little dull, and then Blexar relieved himself, and he reached out and patted Gad's shoulder gently, which was also comforting.

There was silence again for a moment before Blexar spoke.

"Not long after this incident, General Patton launched a war against the western forces in the name of the border conflict, but we all know that this is a war launched by General Patton and Ike to avenge you, but not long after, the Northern Kingdom also launched an attack on the northern front of the Southern Kingdom, just when everyone thought that the three major forces on the Kstana continent were about to launch a full-scale war, the undead suddenly appeared in large numbers on the western front, and at the same time, there were many undead creatures in various places on the continent, so the church had to put most of its forces into the battlefield on the Western Front and exterminate the undead in other places, it seems a little powerless, so in the last resort, in the mercenary union, there will be a mercenary mission about attacking and killing the undead. ”

Blakesar was a little excited about the events that had taken place on the mainland in the past two years about the border battlefield.

In fact, Lance already knew all these things in the mercenary fortress in Lance.

Still, he patiently listened to it.

Although Lance didn't say anything, Gard felt that what Brexsar said was some nonsense, he smiled bitterly at Brexar and said, "Let's talk about it, you can find anyone to inquire about these things you said, there is no need to say it again." ”

After that, Lance nodded at Gad, and then smiled a little awkwardly at Brexar, and after he took a sip of his glass and a few people, he relieved Brexar's embarrassment.

After putting down the glass, Lance turned his gaze to Gad and motioned for him to continue.

Gad paused slightly, pondering, as if trying to figure out where to start.

After a moment, Gad raised his head and continued: " Although my father is grounded, I can move freely in various places, although I am no longer the judge deacon of the Church Inquisition, but with my relationship with Uncle Rachel and Blakesar, they are still loyal to our Mora family, and now I go out to do errands, many times in the name of the Silver Knights, and fortunately, when I was in Cohima City, you returned the Pegasus Knight badge to me, which has blocked the mouths of many people with unknown intentions. ”

A dark cloud appeared on Gad's face again, and then he cast a grateful look at Brexar.

Suddenly, in Gad's eyes, a sharp light burst out.

"That said, I must find evidence of Tobias Christian's collusion with the Plague Demons, and the holiness of the Twilight God must not allow these scum to be defiled with blasphemy. ”

"That'...... So what are you going to do?"

Lance couldn't help but ask.

He couldn't guess Gad's intentions anymore, so he just asked directly, anyway, he wasn't an outsider, maybe he could help a little.

"Hehe......"

Gard smiled a little awkwardly, and without speaking, he stood up and walked to the window.

Seeing this, Lance followed Gard to the window, and looked at the somewhat dim sky together.

"No matter what conspiracy Tobias Christian has, the first task now is to first eradicate the invasion of the undead on the mainland, which is the meaning of the existence of every clergyman of the Church, otherwise once the Western Front is breached, it will not be just a disaster for the Church, but a disaster for the whole continent. ”

Gard looked out the window with a resolute look.

What he said is indeed true, although I don't know why the undead clan appeared on a large scale, but as Gad said, if it is allowed to grow, then it will be a disaster for the entire continent of the Kstana continent.

After being silent for a long time, Gard pushed the window open, pointed to the scenery in the distance, and said meaningfully: "The glory of the twilight god will always shine on the earth, although it will sometimes be covered by clouds, but the almighty twilight god must have seen it in his eyes, the twilight god is merciful and wise, I think he is a test for every twilight god's people, Lance, since you are back, I think I need your help." ”

Gard looked at Lance solemnly, his eyes full of piety and perseverance.

"I'm not a believer in the god of twilight, but I know what to do when I say this to you, and you're my good brother, and your business is my business. ”

Lance held out his hand to Gad, and then the two of them clasped hands tightly together, and a tight hug followed.

Lance is the Guardian of the Continent, and although his abilities are limited now, isn't this what the Guardian of the Continent should do?

I don't know when, Blexar also quietly walked to the side of the two, and said with a smile: "We've talked long enough today, why don't we find a place to have a drink together?"

Lance followed the direction of Brexall's finger, only to realize that Lilith had fallen asleep in the soft chair at some point.

Looking at the sleeping Lilith's face, full of exhaustion, it was very cute.

He smiled apologetically at Gard and Blexall, walked slowly over to Lilith, and whispered a few words in her ear before Lilith opened her somewhat misused eyes and looked at Lance.

After relieving herself a little, Lilith rubbed her eyes and pouted, and said to Lance with some dissatisfaction: "Are you done talking? Next time there is such a thing, I won't follow, it's all listening to you, I can't talk at all, hum......"

Listening to Lilith's complaints, Lance gently stroked her hair and didn't shy away from sprinkling a handful of dog food on Gad and Blakethall.

Lance didn't answer, and gently took Lilith's hand and stood up.

"Let's go, since my mercenary team has accepted your recruitment, let's go have a drink together, I think you will become friends too." ”

With that, Lance took Lilith's hand and walked out of the room first.

By the time I got back to the tavern, it was completely dark.

At this time, there were already a lot of drinking and chatting mercenaries in the tavern, noisy and smoky, although such an environment was indeed not very good, but this was very appetizing to these mercenaries.

When Lance and the others walked into the tavern, Blexar, dressed as a knight, instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the tavern, but after only a moment of silence, they were busy with their own business.

However, from the whispers of some people, Lance vaguely heard some scattered words such as "undead ......", "mercenary ......", and "...... on the battlefield on the Western Front".

In this regard, Lance just smiled, presumably it was no secret that Gard recruited mercenaries in the mercenary fortress.

At this moment, Quiles shouted loudly to Lance: "Lance, why are you back, come and drink, we have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"Haha...... Brother Quels, this is already drunk? Let me introduce you to you. ”

As Lance spoke, he had already walked to Quiles' table with Lilith, Gad, and Brexall.

Lance glanced at Quells, who was flushed with drink, and said with a smile: "Brother Quels, these two are my friends, Gad Mora, and Blexar Agas. ”
