472 Guidance of the Underworld
As a result, before waiting for the next day, two people came to visit.
The two men were a little impressed, as he remembered that both were relatives of Joshua and were also the latter's knightly apprentices.
Beta withdrew Joshua's second-class knightly qualifications, and their knightly apprenticeship status was naturally revoked.
When their identities were canceled, they were very frightened, and they thought that they had done something wrong and were abandoned by their relatives in the city, but when they came to visit them later, they found that the strength of the city lord Joshua had also dropped significantly.
How could they not understand what was going on.
Then they casually investigated the people Joshua had met recently, and soon learned that Beta had also arrived, and after thinking about it, they roughly understood what was going on, so late at night, the two secretly came to visit the manor.
In the living room, the two of them were polite, and even reported their names in a low voice. The older one is Reilden, Joshua's cousin, and the younger one, Shaz, Joshua's cousin.
"You want to become a knight's apprentice again?" Beta looked at the two of them with some surprise: "What does this mean, you should understand it very well." β
"Of course, it means that there is a possibility that he and Joshua will become enemies." Rearden replied, "If we don't even understand this, we are not qualified to come and visit Your Excellency. β
"Is it worth it to be a knight?" Beta asked, curiously, "Joshua is your relative. β
The two young men glanced at each other, and Reilden smiled bitterly, "Joshua has changed, he is no longer the gentle and kind cousin he used to be. Now he is too obsessed with power and believes in the power that power brings, and half a year ago, he even tortured and killed Evan, who came to ask him for help. β
Evan ...... Beta remembered this man, she was once Joshua's fiancΓ©e, and left Joshua when he was at his worst, and later Joshua, with Beta's help, successfully counterattacked, and the woman was also deprived of everything and driven away from the city of Sicilya.
Beta really didn't expect that Joshua would actually torture and kill Evan to death. He remembered that Joshua had already taken Evan's affairs lightly, and in just one year, his temperament had changed too much.
In the absence of a strong mind to match, power is indeed easy to corrupt people's hearts.
"I'll think about it for two days, and the day after tomorrow you will come back to me, how about it?" Beta thought for a moment and said, "Also, be careful when you go out, so as not to be seen by Joshua's men." β
"We get that."
Seeing that Beta did not directly refuse, both young men breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
In front of the window, Beta watched the two young men below put on black clothes and left quietly, Shirley snuggled up to him and asked, "Why don't you promise them, if they regain their knightly status, they will return to their original strength, and they can help you control Shuhua well." β
Joshua wasn't really a big deal. It's not that you don't know my character, and when you start to do it, you rarely think about things like status. Beta said lightly: "I have to inquire about the two of them, after all, I don't want another 'Joshua' to appear." β
Shirley smiled, Amanda had already gone back to her room to sleep, she looked around, smiled and asked, "I'll use my scabbard later, it's time for maintenance." β
Beta rolled her eyes helplessly.
After waking up the next day, Shirley and Amanda continue to gather information on the streets, while seeing which houses sell weapons and armor cheaply and in large quantities. Beta, on the other hand, continued to wander around, asking about the two young men from the previous night, and to see if there was a chance to run into Frey again, though he knew that the chances were slim.
As a result, he didn't run into Frey, but he ran into another unexpected person.
Sophie.
The girl of the Cult of Pluto was preaching in the streets with several other black-robed priests, each of them holding a stack of papers with a portrait of the god of the underworld, and when Beta was considering whether to go up and say hello, Sophie noticed him, her eyes lit up, she shoved the paper in her hand to her companion, and then trotted over.
I haven't seen her for a year, and Sophie has grown a lot, both in height and the size of her chest.
"Long time no see, Beta." Sophie put her hands behind her back and greeted with a smile: "Why did you come to Sicilian City?" β
Beta looked at Sophie for a while, and found that the good smile was very sunny, and the complexion was also excellent, thinking that he should have come out of the shadow of the loss of his father, so he smiled and said: "Do something, you Hades Sect, actually use paper to preach, this is really a luxury." β
"Because one of our geniuses in the Cult of Pluto has discovered a cheap way to make paper." Sophie smiled proudly: "In the future, our Pluto Sect will become rich, and only we will have this technology." β
Has papermaking finally improved? Beta knew how the spread of paper would affect the spread of knowledge and cultural processes, after all, there were precedents on the planet.
In fact, in the game, players saw that paper is expensive, and glass is even more expensive, and they also thought about making these things, but then found that the rules of the world are different, and there are magic elements in the air, so the paper made is much worse than that of NPCs, and the cost is also high.
Glass is even more exaggerated, which has become a very simple technique on Earth, but in the game, the player makes glass, and as a result, a whole lot of weird glue is made.
Because of the different rules, players later gave up the idea of transferring the technology on Earth to the game.
Looking at Sophie, who was so happy, he asked, "Since we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's find a place to sit and talk." β
Sophie nodded happily, and then she ran back to her companion and pointed to Beta, who was mostly girls, and the girls all let out a playful 'oh' at the same time when they saw Beta.
Sophie was very shy, chased after a girl who made the loudest noise, beat her a few times, and then followed Beta to her side, blushing and saying, "Okay, let's go." β
"Or I'll invite them together." Beta pointed to the group of Immortal believers who were 'eyeing the two of them'.
Sophie waved her hand again and again and pushed Beta away: "Don't worry about them, they will do something." β
A few minutes later, the two of them sat down in a rather elegant tavern, where the drinks were more expensive and the dΓ©cor was more stylish, so there were many fewer people, but it was perfect for a casual conversation with friends.
"I was just about to find a chance to find you." As soon as she sat down, Sophie said excitedly, "I didn't expect to see you here, this must be the guidance of the god of the underworld." β
