Chapter 412: Investigation
There is a good saying that wealth is in danger, and this is the current situation...... Reading the latest and most complete novels, three people know that this is a very dangerous infiltration operation, but at the same time, there is a very big opportunity. After all, the Iron Throne doesn't know about Nanfang Sheng yet, and if you take advantage of the time difference, you can take a hard shot first, and then evacuate quickly before the other party reacts.
One of the Assassins clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Good! Since you have the guts, I'll go crazy with you. Let's talk about how it should be done. β
"As a first step, I first approached the person in charge of the place as an envoy of the Iron Throne, told them that the southern operation had failed, and then joined the siege of the city. The second step is to find out the composition of the army, as well as the personal information of those leaders, and find a way to send them out. The third and most dangerous step is to provoke an internal unrest. You must know that the composition of this army is very complex, it is a human mercenary, and it is a variety of monsters, it must be full of contradictions, as long as you can find a breakthrough point to provoke it, maybe it will immediately lead to a large-scale internal bar. β
The reason why Byrne did not hesitate to say the whole plan was to build a strong relationship of trust. You must know that although he has a flexible mind, he is only a first-class warrior himself, and he can't complete all the tasks alone. In particular, provoking civil strife requires elite assassins to commit several murders, otherwise it will be difficult to make any waves under the pressure of the Iron Throne's powerful bullets alone.
The assassin who had just spoken took a deep breath, suddenly burst out and rushed in front of the farmer, grabbed his head with both hands and twisted it so hard that everyone heard a "click". It was the sound of a broken cervical vertebrae. The farmer had an incredulous expression on his face. As if questioning why they killed me.
After killing someone. The assassin nodded slightly and said, "Although there is some danger, it is very feasible, I agree." Rest well tonight, and we'll head to the siege camp early tomorrow morning. β
"Then I'll be responsible for going back and reporting the news." The other Assassin did not hesitate to take on another task.
Seeing that the overall situation was decided, Byrne pointed to the slain farmer and asked, "What should I do with this?" If it is found by other villagers, the news may be leaked. β
"Don't worry, I'll bury the body in the back farmland in a few moments. It's not the season to sow seeds, and there won't be anyone present. But for now, it's better to get something to eat first, or I won't have the strength to bury the body. With that, the Assassin tossed the farmer's body aside. Started rummaging around the house.
After a while, he found a few pieces of hard black bread in the cupboard, as well as a little sausage, a few steamed pumpkins, and half a pot of mashed potatoes. Although it looks a little shabby, it is already a very delicious meal for a group of people who have been hungry for a few days and nights.
Without saying a word, the three of them immediately began to gobble up and stuff them into their mouths, not even looking at the corpse on the ground. The farmer was doomed to be killed from the moment he asked for the sapphire brooch, not out of greed or anything, because he had identified everyone.
That's why Byrne didn't shy away from talking about the plan at all. When a person knows something they shouldn't know, they will undoubtedly be killed, especially when two elite assassins sent by the guild are familiar with killing people. You must know that secrecy is an issue that Robert has always emphasized, although there are many ways to communicate with the deceased in Faeron 6. But the dead who cannot speak are the best at keeping secrets in some kind of chengdΓΉ.
After eating all the food, the three men quickly dragged the body to the wheat field and buried it quietly. Then I took a good shower next to the well before returning to the house and locking the door. After being tired for so long, I can finally sleep peacefully. It didn't take long for the snoring to start, and perhaps this would be their last sleptical sleep, and the next thing they would face would be a perilous life as a spy.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
At the same time, a group of about twenty people from the eastern part of Belgoist, all made up of holy warriors and priests, arrived at the ruins of the temple of Los Angeles. They all wore a badge on their chests engraved with a sunrise pattern made up of roses, red and yellow gemstones. Apparently, they are a knight order sent by the Lord of Dawn to investigate the cause of the destruction of the temple and also have the responsibility of apprehending the murderer.
A very handsome-looking young man took off his helmet, sniffed lightly in the air, and immediately frowned. After walking around the area a few times, he said to a fellow priest behind him, "I smell a stench peculiar to the Devil of the Abyss, plus a faint smell of blood. β
"Wild, do you mean to say that the real culprit behind this attack on the temple is the demon?" The priest asked with a serious look on his face.
He didn't have the slightest contempt for the other party's age, everyone knew that the Lord of the Dawn itself represented youth and vitality, so most of his favorites were young people. The man in front of him, Wild, was only twenty-two years old, and he was already a tenth-level holy warrior, and he had a bright future.
"Judging by the traces on the battlefield, that's right. However, what makes me a little strange is that these demons appear as if they appeared out of thin air, and after killing all the people of the Order and eating the corpses and souls, they completely disappear. You must know that once a demon appears on the main plane, it will not leave without killing all the people in the surrounding villages and towns, unless it is controlled by someone or simply summoned by magic. β
I have to say that this paladin named Wilder is quite good, and he can see the problem at a glance. After all, the demons summoned by the ninth-level magic gate can only last for three minutes at most, and then they will be sent back to the abyss, and there is no time to plague the surrounding villages.
The priest frowned and asked, "Then do you think this is the action of a certain evil god, or is it a conspiracy of the demon lord?" "After all, there are quite a few enemies in Los Angeles, and if you count them from beginning to end, I'm afraid it will take half a day.
Wilder shook his head slightly and replied, "Not really." The enemy is very ruthless, and the purpose is quite clear, which is to kill everyone here. Maybe you should go to the temple first. You might find a clue. That's right. Who is the lord of this land? I'd better ask him about the situation first. β
"This place should be under the jurisdiction of the Duchy of Dalaran. It is a new country that was formed only a few months ago. I heard that the leader was a famous adventurer named Henry, and many adventure stories were told by the bards. He was very heroic when he fought against the Sawa Fishman a few days ago, and killed more than 10,000 sea bandits. And recently, there was news from Am's side, saying that this lord killed the legendary evil dragon Baragas "Flying Flame", in short, he is a very remarkable person. β
The priest told him what he had to say. It can be said that in the past ten years, there has been no figure on the West Coast who has risen faster and more in the limelight than him. However, the priest felt that the lord seemed to favor neutral deities in matters of territorial faith, such as Heim, the neutral god of the Guardians. Another example is the neutral and kind sprout goddess Theonlea.
"Oh? I didn't expect such a character to appear when I was tempering my martial arts and beliefs. Wild's face was filled with excitement. One of his favorite things is to go around befriending great young people, and then waiting for an opportunity to indoctrinate them in the teachings of Loshanda, and try to get all the outstanding people to come to believe in the Lord of the Dawn.
The priest was clearly aware of Wild's thoughts, shook his head with a wry smile and explained, "I advise you to give up this idea. This lord is a very high-ranking mage and druid, and the exact casting level is not very clear, but it is not much worse to be able to kill Balagas "Flying Flame" if not legendary. And he doesn't seem to like the Lord of Dawn, who hasn't even made a symbolic donation for so long after the founding of the country. β
It is important to know that according to the custom of Faeron 6, a new ruler will symbolically donate a sum of money to all the temples in the realm when he ascends to the throne. However, Henry did not bother with these things except for a small donation to the two temples that had first arrived.
Wilde raised his mouth in surprise and asked, "Why?" We have always preached the spirit of justice, bravery, and positivity, as long as it is not a guy from the evil camp, there is no reason! β
"It's not clear. Maybe it had something to do with his druid status. Most of the countryside on the island of Angome believes in pristine nature, and a group of druids called the Rings of Growth spread their teachings all year round. One thing is certain, though. This lord is definitely not an evil camp, and this can be seen both in terms of policy and taxation. β
"Haha, I'd love to meet him even more if you say that." Wilde smiled as he walked into the temple.
But his sunny smile was quickly replaced by anger. The temple was littered with the corpses of slain priests, huge idols had been splattered with blood, and an evil magic circle had been carved around them. Not a single devout believer would be indifferent to the sight of their god's temple being desecrated, let alone a priest and a holy warrior who symbolized goodness and order.
"Ah!!!!!!!hh Whoever killed my brothers and sisters! Desecrated this sacred temple! I'm going to make you pay! The pastor was the first to fall to his knees and scream. He couldn't imagine that anyone in the main plane had the audacity to make such a rebellious move.
The etiquette and upbringing of the paladin came into play at a critical moment, and Wild, though furious, did not lose his mind. He grabbed his companion and yelled, "Don't let hatred blind you! We are believers in the Lord of the Dawn, and once we fall into darkness, we will never be blessed by the Light again, and perhaps this is the purpose of the attack on the Temple people. β
"Yes...... But did so many innocent lives die in vain? Although the pastor knew that his companion was right, he still couldn't accept the reality in front of him.
"Don't worry, I swear that the murderer will be brought to justice." Saying that, Wilde suddenly appeared, and a lunge rushed out, picked up a badge from the ground, and said loudly, "Look, what is this!" It must be the mastermind behind the scenes. As long as we have it, we can continue to track it down. β
A few minutes later, the two men returned to the group with solemn expressions. No one dared to ask what was going on inside, and from the expression on the leader's face, it could be seen that the inside of the temple must be quite terrifying. The whole group began to march west along the main road, and their next stop was Bergos, where they were going to find out the news and contact the local government by the way.
