"Teacher, I have important information, the leader of the pretenders, Lady Maya, is hiding in this area, and I need your help. ”

Leonardo stood up suddenly, stared at Philip with falcon-like eyes, and asked, "Reliable news?"

Philip nodded, leaned closer to him and whispered a few words.

Leonardo instructed his men: "The second, third, and fourth teams will follow me, and the first team will continue to blockade and will never allow anyone to leave here." ”

"Yes!" A neat answer sounded, and hundreds of heavily armed temple warriors, led by the knight captain, marched in a neat pace, lined up behind him, with neat military appearances and majestic momentum.

"Take care of your people, don't let them mess around, you follow me. Leonardo ordered, not at all showing his usual kindness, but somewhat similar to the first time they met a few years ago.

Philip nodded, glanced back at Murphy, who was dressed as a guard, behind him, and followed.

A block away, Philip paused, pointed to a two-story building on the left in front of him, and said, "That's it." ”

Leonardo asked Bass, "Whose property is there?"

Bas glanced at it, a little embarrassed, and explained to the paladin in a low voice: "It's from our temple, a small hotel, specially used to entertain the families of those low-ranking priests from other places. ”

Leonardo was also choked, he had been away from these things for too long and had a vague impression.

Soon, 400 samurai surrounded the small hotel, 100 more even burrowed into the nearby sewers, and 100 samurai armed with huge shields and bows and arrows climbed onto the roof of the hotel and nearby houses.

There are one or two Templars in almost every direction, and even if they are not able to defeat them, it is no problem to wait for the Paladins to reinforce for a while.

In an instant, this place has become an isolated island, and it is difficult to fly even with wings.

Leonardo nodded at Bath, who lowered the mask on his face and shouted angrily, "Charge!"

The beast-like samurai smashed the door of the hotel and rushed in a rage.

At the same time, the samurai with huge shields on the roof of the house had ropes tied to them, and with the help of their companions, they slid down the roof, smashed the windows directly, and broke in.

Suddenly there was an uproar in the hotel, and all kinds of scolding and cries rang out, but soon fell silent again.

As a group of men and horses walked out with a disheveled crowd, Philip had just thought that the arrest was a little too easy, when he heard a burst of exclamations and fierce fights coming from the sewers.

The fight lasted for several minutes and did not subside, which shows the stubbornness of the enemy.

Even later, there was a sound of chirps from the mouth of the well, indicating that the enemy beneath the ground was unexpectedly difficult, and even the two Templars joined forces and did not stop each other.

Leonardo was furious, and rushed over on his mount, and before he could get close to the well, he jumped directly into the air and began to change form.

I saw him turn into a red streamer and drill into the wellhead, and in less than ten breaths, he jumped up with a head the size of a millstone, and the noise below was replaced by a cheering sound.

It was a monster head that looked like a snake and not a snake, like a dragon and not a dragon, with sharp and slender fangs sticking out with its wide mouth, and the flesh and blood were blurred at the eyes, only the fracture at the neck was neat and smooth, as if it had been cut off in an instant without much effort.

Leonardo threw the huge snake head to the ground, and then more than a dozen embarrassed warriors behind him dragged a snake body nearly one meter thick and more than thirty meters long, covered with hard dark red scales.

Then there were seven or eight wounded people of varying severity, who were helped up and quickly treated, which shows that the giant snake caused considerable casualties to the samurai.

Philip had to admire the strength of the cheap teacher even more, and at the same time notice the eyes behind him that were constricted with fear under Murphy's mask.

"Is it a mutant?" Philip himself asked a little unconfidently, judging from the law of conservation of matter, this giant snake is clearly far beyond the limit of a person's ability to mutate, even if it is impossible for ten big men to be tied together.

Leonardo did not answer, but pointed to the crowd held together and said, "Take them all back to the temple and hold them in solitary confinement." ”

Chand, who was only half a step behind, explained: "There was originally a mountain near the temple, that is, the site of the battlefield, and a huge snake's nest was once found in it.

It's just that he was killed later, and I haven't seen such a big guy in many years, and I didn't expect there to be another one in the sewer. ”

Philip listened to it incredibly, and it seemed that even after living here for a long time, there were still surprising discoveries everywhere in the city.

Since he had nothing to do with Lady Maya, he quickly left him behind and followed the escort to the temple.

However, the subsequent selection and interrogation work reached an impasse, and a total of 23 people, nine men and 14 women, were arrested at the scene.

In addition to the innkeeper's family of three, there were also six low-ranking officials ranging from the first to the third level of the temple, as well as their family members, and even two flower snakes.

Except for the two flower snakes, all the others were interrogated and screened by the relevant personnel of the temple, and there was no doubt.

They are all priests who have served in Gaokan City for more than three years, not to mention the boss's family who have served here all their lives.

Come to think of it, neither Leonardo nor Philip thought that Lady Maya and her immediate liaison officer would disguise themselves as those two women who were engaged in special professions.

You know, just now, the two of them had been snatched out of the bed and were serving a fat clerk together.

The focus of the two of them's suspicions was the boss's family of three, because the Pretender organization had been lurking in the city for nearly a year, and there was plenty of time to complete Li Daitao's plan.

Just when Philip had to turn on Murphy, Brad, who got the news, rushed over, glared at Philip as soon as he entered the door, and rushed to the prison.

The bloodshot red eyes looked at the men and women inside, the momentum on their bodies was like a mad lion, and the two flower snakes were even frightened by his eyes and sat down to the ground, and a foul smell suddenly filled the air.

"Leonardo, give them all to me, the shame of the mad lion must be washed away by the mad lion himself. Brad didn't have the slightest tact, and was straightforward in his request.

Leonardo is not angry because of this, and he has had a pretty good relationship with Brad in the last year, which can be regarded as a honeymoon.

He smiled wryly and whispered his condolences before throwing the pot to Melissa, who was waiting for the results next door.

Philip also quickly stood up and tried to dissuade Brad.

At the beginning, he directly found Leonardo instead of his grandfather Brad, just for the sake of the soldiers' speed, if he delayed the time for the sake of the right to handle the case, and let Mrs. Maya take advantage of the chaos to run away, he would not have time to cry.

But now the people who were caught from the hotel under the temple, except for the two special professional women, all the other people involved in the case are considered to be from the temple.

At this time, it is almost impossible to take back the right to handle the case from the temple, and if there is time for this dispute, it is better to find the real culprit as soon as possible.

The treacherous and cunning Brad naturally knew this, and he did it on purpose, on the one hand, to put pressure on the temple to force them not to cover up for personal gain.

On the other hand, he had just received the news that his old buddy Barton had also collapsed and was unconscious, with the same symptoms as Catherine and Yun'er.

And Yun'er's symptoms began to worsen, not only did she lose more and more blood, but the mess at the wound in her body really caused an infection, and the whole person now had a high fever, and it took a lot of effort for the medical priest of the temple to temporarily suppress it.

After hearing this, Philip also became anxious, and he didn't care about hiding it at all, so he grabbed Murphy's arm and asked, "Is there any way you can find her?"

Melissa, Leonardo, Marquis No, Brad, everyone present looked at the armored warrior with puzzled eyes, wondering which one Philip was singing.

Murphy smiled bitterly and took off his helmet in full view, causing an immediate exclamation.

Especially the angry Brad directly pulled out the sword on his waist, and the entire prison was in chaos.

At this time, Philip stepped forward and explained to several big people: "The merits of it will be explained in detail later, but this man is now our ally and can be trusted, and only he can quickly find the target and treat Catherine and them." ”

Leonardo waved his hand, and the Templars on the scene all put away their weapons and retreated, while Brad looked at the unusually familiar face, and his heart was full of horror and fear.

But in the end, he calmed down under Philip's persuasion, but the broadsword remained in his hand.

Philip continued to make demands, and there were some things that had to be said in advance, which could be regarded as letting Murphy feel at ease.

"I have a pact with him that as long as we help us find Lady Maya, I will let him live, and I will not blame him for the past.

He is an old friend of mine, and if it weren't for his defection, I believe there would be fewer people standing here at this moment. ”

After receiving verbal assurances from Melissa and Marquis No, Philip couldn't care about Brad's attitude, grabbed Murphy's hand and urged, "What should I do?"

"I don't know what they've become now, but Lady Maya has always loved to wear headscarves, not because she has a soft spot for headscarves, but because she has a round red birthmark on the back of her head, which no matter how much she changes, it can only be covered by a hat or a headscarf," Murphy said. ”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard an exclamation from the cell.

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that in one of the cells, a person was holding a dagger, which was being pulled out of the body of the person next to him, and said hatefully: "I didn't expect that after so many years, it was you who betrayed me in the end." ”

The man fell to the ground, clutching his lower abdomen, and never resisted, but explained in an aggrieved voice: "No, it's not me." ”

The voice grew lower and lower, and finally fell silent, and he lay there motionless, and stopped breathing.

Obviously, Murphy's confession made her have nothing to hide, and even suspected her assistant and personally killed her.

It's just that this person is not the boss family that Philip and Leonardo suspected, let alone the two flower snakes, but a low-level affairs officer who looks to be in his twenties.

It was his wife who fell to the ground.

At this moment, she completely looks like a man, and she looks dignified, especially the two mustaches add a bit of masculine charm.

But as Murphy said, he wore a dark green bottlenose hat on his head, which was the most common everyday hat worn by the priests.

A woman's femininity appeared between her eyebrows, and she said viciously to Murphy, "A mongrel is a mongrel, do you think they will let you go?"

Then he looked back and forth between Philip and Brad's faces with a cold gaze, and said gloomily, "Do you think that what you are doing will never be known?

Philip secretly said that it was not good, and was about to rush up to stop it, but Murphy next to him opened his mouth first, and said coldly: "Shut up!"

To the surprise of everyone at the scene, the Mayan lady was really stunned for a moment, closed her mouth, stopped talking, and just stood there blankly, as if she was stupid.

This scene made Melissa frown, and quietly touched the bow tie of her divine robe, as if turning on some kind of switch.

Even Philip, who knew the inside story, was in a beating of heart, secretly becoming more vigilant about Murphy's abilities, and at the same time realizing a certain possibility, he looked at him deeply and did not speak again.

But this was not the time to dwell on the matter, the scene was quickly sorted out, and Lady Maya was moved to a separate room to begin the interrogation.

Perhaps the temple has other special methods of interrogation, but Murphy's ability is the fastest and most direct, and Philip and Leonardo are by his side, which can be regarded as a kind of oversight.

"What's your name?"

"Lady Maya. ”

"How many of you are in Gaukan City?"

"Seventeen. ”

"Where are they?"

"Except for the dead, the others are in ......"

The interrogation was so efficient that Leonardo directly copied a copy of the confession and asked Bass to arrest him immediately.

"What's that blue poison that smears on the dagger?"

"Pull the machine. ”

"Where's the antidote?"

"I don't know. ”

"What is the composition of the poison?"

"I don't know. ”

"Is there an antidote?"

"I don't know. ”

The other questions are basically easy to ask, but on the antidote that Philip is most concerned about, Lady Maya is quite tenacious and resolutely refuses to reveal a word.

No matter how you interrogate, it's just three words that you turn over and over, and I don't know.

Philip gradually lost his patience and glanced at Murphy: "Increase the amplitude effect, you know Yun'er can't hold on for long." ”

Murphy's head was already drenched in sweat, and it wasn't as easy for him to use this ability as it seemed.

But until half an hour later, he had used up all the awakening time of the day, and he had gained nothing, and he didn't know anything about this poison except for a name.

Philip's neck was exposed, and he wanted to go up and kill this vicious woman directly.

But the woman, after breaking free from Murphy's control, looked at Philip with mockery and sadism, and laughed heartily: "Wait, although you will be lucky to escape, you will watch the person you love the most die in pain."

This is God's punishment for you, and it is more terrible than death. ”

Philip looked at the woman's hysterical appearance and vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and he suddenly asked, "Is Battier dead?"

The hatred in the woman's eyes was even stronger, and she shouted frantically: "How can the head of the regiment be ......"

Before she could finish speaking, Philip suddenly jumped up, grabbed Leonador's arm and asked eagerly, "Where is that corpse just now?"

Leonardo also reacted immediately and ran out of the house with him, leaving only the woman who had realized that she had been exposed laughing loudly: "It's late, it's late, hahahaha." ”

After saying that, he bit off his tongue, spurted blood from his mouth, and fell to the ground, revealing a striking scar on his scalp.

"Seal off the temple, you are not allowed to enter or leave. "Leonardo's order was quick and decisive.

He had a headache, this group of women was too cunning, and the camouflage skills were too difficult to prevent, far more difficult than fighting on the battlefield.

Brad, who was waiting outside, asked, "What's the situation?"

Philip had to explain a few words briefly: "The person inside is fake, and the one who was carried out just now is." ”

It's a pity that there is no such word as golden cicada shelling in this world, otherwise there would be no need to waste so many tongues.

Soon they rushed into the morgue, but unfortunately, there was a middle-aged female coroner lying here, and her low-level divine robe had been stripped off.

It seems, they are indeed a step late.

The real daughter of Batyr, the leader of the Pretenders, can now incarnate as any person and appear in any corner.

"No, has the curfew been lifted on the streets?" asked Philip.

Leonardo reacted quickly: "That's right, she must still be in the temple, as long as she gets Melissa's message, she won't be able to escape." ”

Melissa, Melissa, Philip whispered the name of the bishop, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

He said to Leonardo quickly, "Teacher, please go and guard the doors of the temple yourself, and I will go to Bishop Melissa."

For more than half an hour, she was only enough to take on the form of a human being, and I think she may have noticed the curfew.

At this time, there were only two people who could enter and leave the temple freely without any hindrance, one was Bishop Melissa. Another..."

Leonardo said, "The other one is me, and only I can stop it." ”

Philip nodded: "She doesn't have many options, either she just wants to break through the gate and escape, or she just wants to make a desperate bet and disadvantage someone here, or even take hostages." ”

Leonardo nodded, said "Be careful!" to Philip, and hurried to the gate with his men, leaving Buzz to accompany Philip to the main hall.

As soon as they came to the main hall, before Philip could tell them about their discovery, they saw a low-ranking priest not far from Melissa carrying a pot of water, and was about to move in front of several bigwigs.

"Lady Maya!" Philip shouted, drawing everyone's eyes to him, but the corners of Philip's mouth hooked.

"Finally got you. ”
