Chapter 184: Planning
"You...... What nonsense are you talking about?" said Speer in disbelief, "The devil's minions?
"Whether it is a false accusation or not, the priest has his own decision," said the man known as Redwin, "Father will be deceived by you, it does not mean that you can blind everyone! Soon the people will know your true colors, and hell is your place!"
"You made it all up by you?" Speer's tone suddenly froze, "or is it someone else?" I think the answer should be the latter—after all, my father's reason for choosing me was not for anything else, but because you and the third brother were too useless. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Shut up!"
Then the nightingale heard a crunch, and the marquis's grunt.
"Enough, bring her back to the church for trial," said the other, "and she is still a nobleman before the trial, so don't lose her manners." ”
After Speer Passy was dragged away, the Judgment Samurai followed him, and soon only two people were left in the room. Due to the influence of the Divine Punishment Stone, the Nightingale could not see their appearance, and could only tell from the sound that one of them was Redwin, who had spoken to the lord earlier. If I'm not mistaken, this man seems to be Speer's younger brother.
"You're doing well, Mr. Redwin...... Perhaps the next time we meet, I will address you as Lord Count. ”
"Is this all it take, Lord Rosad," Redwin's tone was mixed with irrepressible excitement, "can I really inherit the title and become the lord of Falling Dragon Ridge?"
"Of course, as long as you follow our agreement, it is possible to go further," the latter laughed.
"And what then?" he said eagerly, "may I move into my sister's room? she can't get out of prison again, right?"
"Speer Passy will soon be hanged in the square as a witch, and this is a guarantee of our cooperation," the other muttered for a moment, "and as to what to do next, I suggest that you gather her ministers, knights, and men, tell them about it, and divide a portion of the rights that belong to the marquis." ”
"One...... Do you have to do it?"
"If everyone can benefit from this incident, your position will be much more secure, and it will make it easier for us to make the agreement go smoothly in the future," Rosard said, "and if you feel at a loss, I can send you a priest, who is very good at handling government affairs, and if you don't understand something, he will always be able to reply." ”
"Then please," Redwin quickly replied.
"It will also be of great help to us that you can sit firmly in the position of lord, so the church is naturally responsible for this kind of thing. The other laughed.
It wasn't until the two of them left that the nightingale emerged from the fog, and Lightning and Maisie fell.
"This is a problem," she said, looking at the two of them, "how could the church come to the door so coincidentally?"
"Didn't it mean that her brother found out who she really was and revealed it to the church? "We have something to do." ”
"I always felt that something was wrong with this," Nightingale frowned.
"Either way, we must not watch them execute Speer," said Lightning, raising his head, "and we must save her and kill the Church!"
"Falling Flowers and Flowing Water!"
Since defeating the devil, the blonde girl's self-confidence has swelled a little, which is not a good sign. Nightingale shook her head and said, "For the time being, we can't defeat the church, this conspiracy must involve them, if we eradicate this group, Speer can naturally return to the position of lord." This may be an opportunity for us to rescue her quietly, and in the face of nowhere, she will most likely agree to return to the border town with us. ”
"Eh, won't you fight the church?" said Lightning disappointed.
"Fighting is a last resort, the opponent has a large number of people, and has a large number of Divine Punishment Stones, so it is quite risky to eliminate the opponent quickly. Nightingale thought for a moment and then ordered, "I'll go to the church and see if I can figure out what the hell is going on." ”
There was another thing she didn't say, and if she didn't understand the cause and effect, Speer Passy might have blamed His Highness for this framing, and that kind of thing had to be avoided as much as possible.
"What about us?" asked the little girl.
"Just pick me up outside. ”
......
Located in the outer city, the church is small in size, with a prayer hall, a dwelling for believers and a three-story tower surrounded by walls with only one entrance. But for Nightingale, none of these obstacles are a problem.
By the evening, when the worshippers had dispersed, she had already groped the entire area—although there were many times more Punishment Stones than in the castle, it was not impossible to move an inch. The hall was filled with large sacred stones that could suppress the magic of the entire room, as were some of the hallways, but she could have taken a detour, or even climbed over the floor.
Nightingale also found the place where Speer Passy was imprisoned, in the basement of the tower, and did not appear to be suffering much, but was a little mentally exhausted. She planned to wait until the dead of night to bring the Marquis out.
After telling the two of them about her plan, Nightingale re-infiltrates the tower, this time following lines that don't exist in reality and going straight to the top floor, hiding in an ornately decorated room.
This should be the priest's quarters, and when he returns, he should be honest in the face of the threat of the dagger.
When the clock rang at nine o'clock in the evening over Falling Dragon Ridge, the door of the room was pushed open.
She quietly drew her dagger, but did not act, judging by her footsteps, there were two people coming.
"Surprise," said the woman, who spoke first, "I didn't expect the Marquis of Speer to be a witch, and it seems that the plan must be slightly changed." ”
"Uh...... "Isn't it more convincing if she is a witch?"
"Now it's different from what it used to be, according to His Holiness the Pope's crown, if there is a new witch, it should be handed over to the Holy City as much as possible without being exposed. The woman said, "As for the original hanging, let's change it to burning, and replace it with a masked death row inmate of similar stature." ”
"Yes," replied Rosad, "but why should His Majesty make such troublesome rules, it is not easy to transport a witch to Hermes. ”
"I don't know, but I'm just going back to tradition. ”
"Regression...... Tradition?"
"You don't need to know too much, just take care of the current business with peace of mind," the envoy did not continue, "When this is done properly, I will go to Chishui City." ”
"Yes!" Rosad's voice grimaced.
Who the hell is this person? Why didn't the priest even dare to speak in front of her? And listening to the conversation between the two, it seems that they didn't know that the Marquis was a witch before they captured Speer Passy, could it be that this matter was a conspiracy set up from beginning to end for the position of the lord of Falling Dragon Ridge?
Nightingale couldn't help but step out of her hiding place and look at the other party through the mist, and to her surprise, the other party was not wearing the Divine Punishment Stone. In the black-and-white world, the magic in the Messenger's body is as striking as fluorescent.
This man is a witch!
"Who's there?" and she reacted quickly, almost instantly, a dazzling silver light stabbed straight at the nightingale!
