"I thought you were going to be the Lord of the Dawn yourself," Nightingale pouted after Andrea left, "so you weren't joking that day, you really want to support her as queen?"

"It's not that you can't tell," Roland shrugged, "As for me......" Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, from lack of talent to communication efficiency, from time constraints to limited resources, and finally turned into a sentence, "After all, it is beyond the reach of the whip." ”

"Yes...... Nightingale patted him on the shoulder, "but don't worry, Andrea is still very reliable, and the Quinn family shouldn't be far behind." ”

I can't see that these two noble witches really sympathize with each other, Roland laughed secretly in his heart. However, the nightingale once sent people under the fence, and the political vision is a little worse than the former - this has nothing to do with the family, as long as it is not foolish and loyal, it can have a chance to ascend to the sky in one step, and it doesn't cost too much, most people know how to choose.

It's just that he didn't say this, after all, a serious nonsense nightingale is so cute.

Just then, there was another knock on the door outside the office.

"Come in. ”

The door opened, and it was Isabella who appeared in the doorway.

Roland was also a little surprised, it stands to reason that she is not a member of the Witches League, and she can't enter and leave the castle area normally, but after seeing the figure of Agatha outside the door, he probably understands how the other party came to the door.

"Your Majesty," said the Pure One, who had belonged to the Church, bowed and got straight to the point, "I heard Egtha say that the Church of Hermes is about to collapse?"

If it weren't for the seriousness of her expression, Roland would have thought she had come to intercede with the old fellows of the church.

"That's what the intelligence says, and the details are still under investigation. Although he didn't quite understand the Ice Witch's purpose in revealing these things to the other party, he still nodded with the idea that he might as well take a look, "Whether it is Cold Wind Ridge or the western part of Dawn, there are fugitives from the church. From their confessions, it became known that the cathedral, which represents the faith in the Holy City, collapsed overnight. ”

"I hope you can send an army to Hermes, and the sooner the better. ”

"Why?"

"Do you remember what I mentioned earlier, that there are hundreds of thousands of madness pills?" Isabella said in a deep voice, "I don't know how many people know the location of the warehouse where the pills are stored, but it shouldn't be too few...... If it leaks out, I am afraid that it will have a negative impact on your future plans. She paused, "And these things are also very helpful in the battle of divine will, it is best to collect them all and transport them back to Neverwinter." ”

Only then did Roland remember that there was indeed such a thing in the information provided by the other party, that Jieluo seemed to plan to gather all the humans and fight to the death with the devil's army, and its killer weapon was a massive number of madness pills. Since he didn't despise these drugs with no potential, he put the matter behind him.

But things are not quite the same now, and Isabella is right, if someone spreads the pill out and falls into the hands of the nobles of Greykeep or the Dawn Kingdom, or even the Rats of the Dark Street, it will cause a lot of trouble - it may not be enough to deal with a heavily armed army, but it will be enough to attack the officials he sends out, and the local government.

"Where are the pills?" he looked at Isabella.

"Scattered in the secret warehouses of the Hermes plateau, it's hard for me to pinpoint their exact location," the latter hesitated for a moment, "if you believe me, please let me go with the army—I was the Pope's Acting Agent, and this status should slow down the collapse." If the internal disintegration is too fast, it will be difficult for even the army to control the escape. ”

"But who knows if you're going to use your identity to do something else," Nightingale said, "like sneaking those cultists out or something...... Yours acquaintances among them, right?"

"You know I didn't deceive Your Majesty," Isabella shook her head, "Jero has proven who is God's favorite, and I don't need to do those futile things. If necessary, the army can also set a trap in advance, and I will bring the followers into it, and then eliminate them uniformly—the way to maintain order is not only to restrain the identity, but also to completely annihilate the opponent. ”

"Uh-" Nightingale snorted in a low voice, "what a means of the pure." ”

Roland couldn't help but feel a little emotional, he could block the nightingale for a while, and the other party was undoubtedly serious. Although Isabella showed him complete surrender that day, it was based on his ability to fight the devil. Unlike most witches, she is also educated as a pure person, and as long as she can achieve her goals, she does not care much about the lives of ordinary people.

He thought for a moment before he slowly spoke, "I can let you move with the First Army, but you don't need to meddle in the battle, just find those pills and destroy them on the spot." ”

"Your Majesty," she frowned, "though madness drugs can overdraw your life, but in the event of a desperate fight......"

"Needless to say," Roland interrupted her with an outstretched hand, "Speaking of order, I have one more task I want to give you. ”

Isabella immediately lowered her head, "You just command." ”

"There are still several monasteries in the Old Holy City...... Right?"

"Yes, but there are no witches in there anymore," she thought for a moment, then changed her words, "Maybe there were Awakened Ones in the Evil Moon last year, but the chances of surviving are not high." ”

"It doesn't matter if you don't, release all those orphans, take care of them, and bring them back to the West. ”

She was stunned, "Everyone?"

"That's right, you're in charge. Roland nodded.

If the idea of the Pure is to complete the task without caring about the lives of others, he would love to see if the Pure can still carry out this goal when performing a mission that will save people's lives. He couldn't change what had happened before, but he didn't want the other party to continue on this path.

"This request is not unfounded, and thank you for reminding me that if the upper echelons lose the ability to maintain order, the monastery may well become a living hell. Neverwinter needs a large working population, and women can get proper jobs, so I remember that the church would provide basic education to orphans, so they were excellent seedlings and should not starve to death in the walls without anyone care. I want you to bring them back, as many as you can. ”

Isabella was silent for a long time, "That's going to take a lot of food. ”

"Someone will have it for you. ”

A complicated look appeared in the eyes of the Pure, a scene that seemed familiar, even on the day she was pardoned, and her shackles were removed and she was given "limited freedom".

If you can hear her heart, then the biggest must be the "why".

But she didn't say anything, but slowly bent down.

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
