Chapter 614
At midnight, Loren and the gray pupil, who were half squatting on the eaves, looked up and saw a very dilapidated aristocratic mansion, except for the faint firelight, and the lower city. Those abandoned houses are no different.
Dirty walls, decayed doors, dilapidated eaves, on the verge of collapsed beams, and even the sound of "zhi zhi quack" in the house can be heard when the cold wind blows by-I'm afraid even sleep The beggar on the street is also safer than the people living in this "mansion".
For various reasons, Fiefdom and property were lost, so that the family declined and even the mansion was unable to sustain the nobles... This situation is not uncommon in Byrne. Many nobles would rather let the mansion be little by Little dilapidated, with water seepage walls and decayed doors, to maintain the last "face".
They hope that one day an outstanding successor will appear in the family, who will use their merits and prestige to revive their glory...Unfortunately, they often end up with the descendants who are pressured by the heavy maintenance cost of the mansion. In the end, he had to sell the real estate and foundation at a low price and embark on the road of wandering Knight.
This mansion does not look any different from those, of course... it only "looks" like this.
Behind the dirty-looking fence is reinforced with blue bricks, and the top of the wall is even covered with wooden nails; behind the decaying gate is a carriage, and behind it, you can see a wall made of stone. ; The tattered eaves are heavily guarded, and there are sentries in all the potholes...
At first glance, there is nothing special about the dilapidated house, but it is actually a very small fortress disguised as perfect; weak Under the fire, the black hair wizard could even see the guards on the three and three floors around the house, and the degree of security is no less than that of the Governor's Mansion by Byrne!
"Here...is the headquarters of the Blood Cult?"
Lu Sien frowned, as if looking at the densely guarded guards in the distance, right hand instinctively pressed Holds the hilt of the sword at the waist.
"Probably." Loren chuckled and shrugged indifferently; at least the sight in front of him proved that Roger Yord did not lie to himself, but if he really lied to himself...
p>You don’t need to do it yourself, Jr. Yod will definitely put him to death and let Yod’s Chamber of Commerce have no leader, or grab the right to inherit the Chamber of Commerce.
As for this unfamiliar "dog"...that is a problem for the future, and he doesn't have the guts to rebel yet.
"Let’s discuss the next plan first...Although Roger Yord is unlikely to lie, we still have to guard against it; I’ll try to sneak in first, Lucien, you’re in Prepare to respond outside; if you notice any movement, immediately return and let Charles send someone to encircle them."
"However, despite that, It shouldn't be so smoothly... The key lies in Governor Byrne. On the other side of the mansion, even if the army in the city can guard against suspicious characters coming in and out, they can’t guard Gaspar’s eyeliner, so when the time comes, you might have to..."
The words stopped. Loren glanced in surprise at the gray-eyed teenager who was closing his mouth.
"Lu Sien, are you... Are you nervous?"
"en? No!" The whole body was shaken, and the young boy’s blue hair had a pair of silver-gray hairs. The pupils suddenly widened: "I'm just..."
"Afraid?"
"No, absolutely not!" Lu Sien retorted repeatedly, but his eyes subconsciously avoided black The hair wizard's gaze: "I'm not nervous, I'm just...just..."
The gray pupil didn't speak any more, turned his head awkwardly and bit his lower lip.
Loren patted his shoulders, and the young boy's tight body is always trembling slightly.
In other words, he can only tighten his body in this way so that he can't even hold the sword securely.
He is not afraid... he can become the youngest leader of the empire. Lu Sien, who has returned from the giant dragon king city, will no longer hold his sword insecure because of fear... Desperate in the vast Snow Mountain Running wildly, fighting with the legendary giant dragon hunter, he has never flinched even once.
But this time is different.
Although Loren never told him, Lucien could still perceive the tension hidden under the eyes of the black hair wizard...from the first encounter with the Blood Cult, and even earlier. The vigilance seems to have been guarding against something more terrifying existence.
He is not an ordinary wandering Knight, a devout believer of the Holy Cross... He is the illegal child of the former Grand Duke Elman, and now the younger brother of the Duke of Wierz, he knows many things that fools don’t know. , I also saw those horrors beyond imagination in Glacier Wasteland and Giant Dragon King City.
Lu Sien is not afraid of death, but if the things that happened in the fortress of Duanjieshan, let him lose all his brothers and be slandered as deserters, happen again... He would rather be killed in the first place. Nord hanged on the execution stand.
"Master Loren!"
The gray pupil turned his head abruptly, with a trace of pleading in his eyes:
"Please tell me, our enemy is really Is there only one heretical cult?"
"Well, what I just said is not detailed yet? The plan is..."
Looking at the pair seems to be burning with a raging fire Loren sighed with his gaze.
Forget it, Lucien is not an outsider, even more how …he has seen those "things" with his own eyes.
"Remember Faoda and Farnesis?"
"Evil God Lemantes...the apostle of the "Dead Man"?" The keen Lucian reacted immediately , There was a trace of tension in the corner of his eyes: "And the bishop who betrayed the Holy Cross Church?"
"Yes, it seems you still remember." The black hair wizard stared at him, more and more The more serious: "If you remember correctly, you seemed to be suspicious of Farnesis at the time, right?"
Lu Sien frowned deeply, and the hand that squeezed the hilt became harder.
"I didn't answer your doubts when I was in the giant dragon king city, because I was only suspicious at the beginning; as for why I didn't tell you afterwards... because I was also not sure."
Loren hesitated for a moment, then slowly said: "Farnesis...He is another Evil God's apostle, and he is probably in the Scarlet Blood Castle right now."
"What?! "
Even if he was aware of it, Lucien, who learned the truth from Loren, was shocked.
"If he is alone, I still have a solution tentatively." Although it is the most undesirable solution, of course the black hair wizard will not say this: "But in Eboden's At that time, Farnesis got an unfinished alchemy medicine."
"If it is really completed, it will become an unprecedented spirit pill and marvelous medicine, but unfortunately, this medicine is only It takes one drop to turn a living person into a mutant monster... and I suspect that this potion has fallen into the hands of the Blood Cult."
The gray-eyed boy was silent, bowed his head and said nothing.
For Lu Sien, Loren has never been regarded as his own guard, but as friends like Isaac and Ayin. For himself who came to this world alone, in this world has nothing to compare Friends are more important things.
Or only their existence, Loren can clearly feel that he is alive, not in a very advanced somatosensory game, the passers-by are not NPCs that can be ignored, and everything that happens is also It is not a new copy of an online game or a stand-alone DLC expansion piece.
Because of them, everything is closely related to me, so I am motivated to live desperately in this uninspired world, instead of trying to see if I can "travel" back by suicide. .
"Really...I understand."
After a while, the gray pupil suddenly showed a relaxed expression: "So if your guess is true..."
"Then we will meet the'Master Bishop' soon, and when the time comes..."
"When the time comes, you just need to tell me and Whoever fights is fine!" Lu Sien suddenly interrupted him: "Master Loren, I know you keep hiding to protect other people, including me-but I must tell you that this is unnecessary!"
"Maybe the Charlotte count didn't know, but since even I was aware of it, His Excellency Ain must have found out... To be offensive, you may only be counterproductive."
"I am your guard, Lord Loren." The young man gently raised his head, and the cold moonlight passed through the tips of his dark blue hair, shining on his increasingly determined and immature face:
"You don't need to say too much, just tell me where the enemy is!"
