"Thanks for the reminder, I'll take notice." Gordon said to Geralt.

Although his plan would cause some trouble, and even provoke the Archbishop of Dudeka, Gordon wanted to bring Ben . Anissa's face was exposed, and he was willing to take this risk.

Mr. White Wolf squeezed his eyes at Gordon: "Actually, as long as you move faster and let Miss Reinhardt truly become your woman, then the problem will be solved." At that time, no matter how much Archbishop Dudika thinks highly of Miss Lenhardt, it is impossible for her to become a candidate for the Holy Maiden. ”

It's a brilliant idea......

"Just kidding." Geralt saw that Gordon's expression was a little embarrassed, so he didn't say anything more, and took a step to leave.

The pre-meeting hiccup passed. And in the formal meeting, nothing remarkable happened. It was nothing more than endless compromises, quarrels, and blame-shifting, and finally, at the urging of the archbishop, the parties reluctantly agreed to do their utmost to eliminate the Death Cult and thwart its plot to destroy the city of Miè Freires.

"Gordon. Count Freeman, although you are not a citizen of the city of Freijus or a believer in Lady Meritia, as a nobleman of Ferreton, you also have an obligation to maintain the glory of the empire and protect the order and safety of the city, right? ”

At the end of the meeting, Ms. Dudika abruptly shifted the conversation to Gordon. Hearing it, she was still haunted by the Requiem Blessing Day.

"Of course, Archbishop Dudeka." Gordon said.

The prosperity of Changxia Province and the city of Fryris was an important guarantee for the development and construction of his territory. And the Phoenix family also has a good relationship with him. Therefore, Gordon is reasonable and will not sit idly by and watch the actions of the Death One Zhi Sect.

"It's for the best." Lady Dudeka nodded at Gordon, but there was a hint of warning in her words. "I hope that Lord Earl, you can carry forward the noble spirit of the nobles of Ferreton since ancient times, and do not do something out of place."

What does that mean? Is it to remind me not to get too close to Renus?

Gordon secretly said that the news of the archbishop was quite well-informed, and the little thing that happened in front of the temple just now actually reached her ears so quickly. However, although Lady Dudica has such an honorable status as the archbishop of the Temple of Dawn, he will not change his attitude towards Renus because of this, and use Renus to provoke Ben. Anissa's plan.

Moreover, Ms. Dudika did this. It's still a small thing to make Gordon resist, she is so arbitrary, and she wants to control it. The attitude of making everyone obey is really not good. She may be qualified to be a battle priest who rushes to the front line to eliminate the cultists, but she must lead all the forces of the entire city of Flares and pull out the cancer of the Death One Sect. Clearly unqualified.

But now in the Phoenix family, the head of the family, Ambrom. Phoenix was injured in a semi-reclusive situation. In the fight against the Death Cult, the Archbishop of Dudeka became the leader of the rightful direction.

After warning Gordon in secret, Archbishop Dudeka summoned Geralt to the conference room. The appearance of this witcher also means that Gordon has waited for what he cares about most. That's what the purpose of one of the leaders of the Cult of Death, the dark elf who got the heart of the devil, is.

Although the witcher nicknamed the white wolf does not have meticulous aristocratic etiquette, he has a unique charm between his gestures. So much so that the nobles present - especially the female nobles. all ignored his "rude" behavior.

Geralt sat down in an empty chair at random, then placed a crystal ball on the conference table.

He recited the mantra. Activate the crystal ball and let the image stored in the sphere be projected onto the white wall.

"This dark elf in red and black mage robes is called Zakaria. He is one of the leaders of the Cult of the One Death Cult and the mastermind of the Requiem Day attack. The disgusting mass of flesh in his hand was the heart of a demon, and it contained an extremely large, extremely terrifying divine power. ”

"The Death One Sect is going to use this divine power to destroy the city of Flaires?" A viscount who held a high-ranking position in the City Guard asked.

"Nope. Although this divine power is terrifying, it will take a long time to destroy a large city like Fryris City. So if the ultimate goal of the Cult of Death was to destroy the city of Freires, they would certainly not use this method. ”

In the aristocratic circles of the city of Flares, the well-informed Count Irabo asked, "However, the cultists who were captured said that they were lurking in the city of Flaires, and the ultimate goal was to destroy the city of Miè and make the empire pay the price. ”

"That's just a lie used by the top brass of the Death One Ambition Sect to deceive the cannon fodder at the bottom."

The origin of the membership of the Death One Mind Sect is very complex, but a large part of it is the remnants of the Three Holy Baptist Churches, which have been destroyed. These remnants have an unforgable hatred for the Empire and for the three major churches. Therefore, radical and crazy slogans such as "kill all the 500,000 citizens" and "destroy the city completely" are naturally easy to incite the remnants of the Three Holy Baptists and absorb them into the Death One Sect.

But in reality, the upper echelons of the Cult of Death, especially the dark elf named Zakaria, had other purposes.

After the dark elves obtained the demonic heart that stored a large amount of divine power, it was natural that they would have to completely grasp all this powerful power. In this way, he will not only be able to become a god, but also a powerful god whose power is far superior to that of the three dark gods of the past, and can be compared to the ancient dark god Joah, who has no separation of divine powers.

And if he wants to fuse all the three divine powers he has collected, he needs an extremely large and complex legendary magic array. And the source energy needed to power this legendary magic array can't be supplied even by one or two large magic springs.

"The Cult of the Dead One chose the city of Flaires. In addition to the fact that the key item of the Demon Heart is buried here, the more important reason is. The city has a very special historical significance......" Geralt continues to tell the story of his findings.

The city of Fryjus is a thriving trading city, but it is also a city with a deep history. It is said that the history of the city dates back to the barbaric years of the First Age. Even in the chaotic age of creation. The prototype has been formed.

During the Genesis Yuan period, the gods and the Old Rulers fought a protracted war over the entire world of Telos. The earliest epic poem describing the war, "The Giants and Time", whose stone tablets were unearthed in the city of Fryjus, dates back to the early First Age.

In addition to the poetic slate that makes the whole city proud, visitors can inadvertently discover traces of history in all corners of the city. Perhaps the bricks and stones under your feet have a history of thousands of years. Maybe a stone table in some humble tavern. It comes from the days of the Magic Empire of Netherduran, the craftsmanship of those superb stonemasons.

However, White Wolf Geralt called the "special historical significance" of the city of Freireth. It is far above those stone carvings and ancient buildings full of artistic atmosphere.

"Your lordship's fiefdom has been in the area around the city of Flaires for generations, so you should know that this city was one of the main battlegrounds of the gods and the rulers of the old during the Genesis period. Legend has it that in one of the fiercest battles. The Old Dominators are trying to redeem their defeat. He did not hesitate to completely tear the space apart, introducing the destructive energy of another plane, to destroy the gods in one fell swoop. Although the Old Rulers failed in the end, the spatial rift remained forever. The scars of this space are so deep that even the medicine of time cannot heal them. ”

Geralt's words are indeed recorded in various historical books, poems, and legends. All the nobles here have heard of it. However, because it is too old and there is no real evidence to prove it, everyone basically treats it as an ancient story that has been artistically processed. So I heard that the demon hunter mentioned this matter seriously at Yan Sù's meeting. I think it's weird.

"Everyone, be quiet!" Ms. Dudika snorted. The many aristocrats who were talking about it were immediately silenced. The white wolf continued: "You may not believe this story. But the point is that the leader of the Death One Zhi sect, believes the story. They believed that at a certain time, they could open the spatial rift that had been torn by the old rulers, introduce the source energy of the Broken Sea, and provide energy for the legendary magic array they had set up, and finally achieve the goal of fusing divine power and becoming gods. ”

Yes, even if the nobles of the city of Fryjus thought Geralt's legend was absurd and untrue, so what? The Cult of the Dead believes in this story and is willing to do anything to achieve its goals. If this is true, then when the spatial rift is opened, and those terrifying source energy of the Broken Sea pour in, the entire city of Fryris will be completely finished.

The Broken Sea is a very mysterious place, and even the most famous plane travelers know very little about it. It is said that the plane is boundless, filled with all kinds of chaotic and violent source energy, constantly disrupting, shattering, destroying, and crushing every object into primordial particles.

No object can exist in this plane. No living thing can survive on this plane.

If the Death One Cult succeeds, it will undoubtedly be the equivalent of detonating a tactical nuclear weapon in the city.

"On the day of the Huiyang Festival, the positive energy of the entire main material world will be at the highest level of the year. We are in a world of dynamic equilibrium, and it is a terrible thing for any of the foundational elements or energies that build the world to break the balance. Therefore, on the day of the Huiyang Festival, because the positive energy was on the verge of imbalance, the stability of the guidance space became worse, so the Death Yizhi Sect believed that it would be relatively easy to open the spatial crack in the ancient period on that day. ”

Geralt finished speaking, and the mystery was completely revealed.

Gordon guessed that the dark elf's ultimate goal was to merge the divine power in the demon's heart and eventually become a god. But I didn't expect that the other party would actually open the spatial crack in the ancient period for this purpose, so as to activate a legendary magic array.

Now that we know the true purpose of the Death One Ambition Sect, it can be regarded as a great progress. But even so, the people of Freiris City still don't know anything about the specific plans of the Death One Zhi Sect.

How is that huge legendary magic array arranged? How can these cults make such complicated preparations without being noticed? How many of them still have manpower? How will troops be distributed on the day of the festival? And so on and so forth, a series of key matters, still shrouded in fog.

If you don't know these specific matters. Then the entire city of Freiris can only be given an extremely disadvantageous passive position in the face of the attack of the Death One Zhi Sect.

"If only I could make Ben. If Anissa is caught, then I'm sure I'll be able to pry a lot of useful things out of his mouth......" Gordon thought quietly, and then involuntarily looked up at the bishop.

Ben, who was sitting at the far end of the conference table, was sitting at this time. Bishop Anissa was also looking at Gordon. After the two people realized the interaction, they both showed a kind smile, and then looked away from each other. But Gordon knew. I have succeeded in making Ben. Anissa hated it. Although the other party hid his feelings well, he didn't reveal too much resentment in his eyes. But the act of "looking at yourself from time to time" speaks for itself.

After Geralt the Witcher said the most crucial news. The nobles and the clergy discussed for a while longer, and it was not until ten o'clock in the evening that the meeting finally ended.

This kind of strict and dull banquet has not yet been entertained with wine and food. Not many people will like it. So after the adjournment. Everyone was not in the mood to chat, and one by one they got into the carriage and left the Temple of Dawn.

Naturally, Gordon also left the Temple of Dawn in the Phoenix family's carriage. It's just that when he got in the car, he also brought Renus.

Count Freeman's actions made those nobles stunned one by one in disbelief.

Before the meeting began, it was rumored that the foreign Lord Count and the Miss Paladin, who was remembered by the city of Freiris for her role as a sword-bearer on Requiem's Blessing Day, seemed to have an unusual relationship, and they were very close in public. But not too many people cared about the news at the time.

And after the meeting. It was only when they saw Miss Reinhardt get into Gordon's carriage that the people came to their senses.

"Count Freeman is a lucky fellow."

"Hey, hey. You only know now that in fact, when the earl stayed at the Phoenix family's Red Maple Manor a few days ago, I knew that he had an unusual relationship with Miss Paladin. ”

"It's a pity, I'm going to treat Miss Reinhardt to a meal after I'm done with the Death One Ambition Sect......"

Gordon sat in the carriage, and Renus sat side by side. He didn't immediately let the coachman go, but prepared a spell. The cacophony outside the carriage kept drifting into the carriage, making Miss Paladin feel a little uncomfortable.

"Gordon, when are we leaving?" I don't know if it's because the space in the carriage is too cramped, or because of other reasons, Renus looks a little cramped, stroking her long pale blonde hair from time to time. Gordon can see it, although when the two are alone, this young lady paladin can still perform her duties as a "lover" relatively calmly. But if the intimacy of two people is put in public, she will seem more difficult to adapt.

Gordon didn't answer Renus immediately, instead focusing on the movements of his hands. When he finished casting the spell, an invisible arcane eye appeared on the roof of the carriage.

In this way, he could carefully observe the outside from the carriage.

In a short time, the carriage, with its delicate phoenix pattern on the outer carriage, drove into the night. Gordon sat in the carriage, although there was a girl with a special relationship with him beside him, he didn't have any other thoughts for the time being, just focused on controlling the secret eye and observing the surroundings.

After a while, Gordon spotted a looming figure in the obstacles on both sides of the road.

"Hmph, although that Mr. Bishop is good, he is not a professional wanderer after all, and it is easy to show his feet when he is tracking." Gordon smiled as a big fish on the bait.

At night, a woman is willing to ride in the same carriage with a man, and the information contained in it is not inexhaustible, and it can give people a lot of room for imagination.

After all, there are many things that men and women can do in such a closed environment as a carriage.

As for Gordon's relationship with Renus, other nobles may only be curious about gossip. But Ben. Bishop Anissa, I'm afraid, is in a different mood. After Renus boarded Gordon's carriage and left, the bishop could no longer bear the patience and could not disguise, and quietly followed.

If you don't know exactly what Gordon and Renus will do tonight, and where the relationship has progressed, Ben. Anissa probably won't give up.

"Alright, my Miss Paladin, let's get started."

Root. Anissa took the bait, and Gordon was in a good mood, so he smiled and began to urge the girl next to him.

"Do you really want to do that?" Renus's face was hesitant and her cheeks flushed, a lovely look that contrasted with her determination on the battlefield.

"Of course. If the infatuated bishop had known that we had not only been in the same car, but had done many such and such things, he would have gone mad with jealousy, and even carried away with anger. When the time comes, our opportunity will come. ”

Seeing Gordon's stern face and analysis, Renus could only nod helplessly: "Okay." ”

No way, who called her a good girl who kept her promises, and wanted to be Gordon's perfect lover with all her heart.

Of course, don't get me wrong. Gordon didn't really want to do something weird and heart-pounding with Miss Paladin in this moving carriage. He's not ridiculous enough yet.

Gordon just wanted Renus to change her clothes.

When you get into the carriage, you have one set of clothes, and when you get off the carriage, you have another set of clothes. Such a change can already make Ben Anissa crazy.

Renus stood up, and began to undress one by one.

First shoulder armor, arm armor, then cuirass, skirt armor. Miss Paladin, who has been dressed in military uniforms all year round, is naturally handy when she takes off her armor. When Renas took off the cotton lining of her armor, Gordon looked regretful. Although he didn't plan to do anything to Renus, it was also a pleasure to admire the beautiful figure of the girl in plain underwear, and to feel the unique charm of the young but healthy vitality with his eyes.

But Gordon didn't expect that Renus had already put on the clothes he brought.

"My Miss Paladin, don't you feel fortunate that you are wearing such a thick set of silver armor on the outside and a skirt on the inside?"

"It's nothing, the discomfort doesn't affect me." Renus shook her head. However, after she glanced down at the white dress she was wearing, she showed an expression of doing something wrong, "I'm sorry, it's rare for you to give me a gift, but it's crumpled." ”

"Forget it. Ben. If Anisar saw it, he would definitely misunderstand it, thinking that your body was crumpled by me, and he would be absolutely furious. That's not bad either. Gordon waved his hand.

Although her clothes were wrinkled because she was forced to wear a dress and a cotton lining of armor, she did not diminish her charm even so.

The dress that Gordon gave to Renus, as well as a pair of white over-the-knee stockings, were made from the new material of neon haze. The outfit Gordon was brought to the city of Freiris as a sample of the new merchandise. But now it's playing a different role in Renus, which is not bad.

It's a pity that Gordon's original plan was to have Renus wear this to go to the drinking party with him, so as to not only anger Ben. Anisa can also play an excellent role in promoting his new products. After all, a wonderful girl like Renus can not only be more beautiful against the backdrop of new material clothes, but also can in turn make Gordon's goods more dazzling.

Unfortunately, Miss Paladin steadfastly rejected Gordon's request. In fact, this dress is not very bold, at most the hem is shorter, which will show the wearer a thigh. Such a dress was supposed to be very suitable for the tall Renus, but it was still a little difficult to accept for a girl who had never worn a skirt since she was a child, and even when she was resting, she was dressed neutrally.

So, Gordon could only take a step back and let her put on her skirt to show herself in this more private situation now.

"I've said before that your legs are beautiful, and if you wear a short skirt and a pair of over-the-knee stockings, you're going to kill a whole bunch of men."

"As I said, I only wear it in front of you. As for whether it can fascinate other men, I'm not interested. (To be continued......)
