Chapter 31 The Eve of the Eternal Night Storm (1)
"Why did those nobles let us in easily?"
Following Moya, Slin asked a question in a low voice
He didn't expect to be allowed to enter the city during this special period.
Even in the name of a caravan, the dragoons are extremely rare on the mainland.
In addition to several large mercenary groups in the Western Continent, only the wealthy country in the Southern Continent can capture and tame a large number of people. At present, Ningal and the Church of Light are divided. They are afraid that they will be targeted before entering Ningal.
"There is a special magic detection device on that gate that can monitor the magic density nearby. Of course, anyone who approaches or passes will be detected by many large cities. This method is used to infer the number and ability of any magicians entering the city.
Even if there are teams of thousands of dragon cavalry, if two intermediate mages are detected, what else do you think the nobles in this city will worry about?
The mage is barren northern continent. Apart from the undead, people are only afraid of mages who can control the power of elements. As long as the dragon cavalry does not enter the city, they will certainly not take us seriously. After glanced at the streets casually, Moya quickly concluded - the lifeless city
Because of the suppression of the army, Samptoya has long lost its former prosperity.
There are only three or two pedestrians on the spacious street, no vendors, no believers, and the northern holy capital is like a dead city.
Through the square with a large fountain, Moya walked straight into a wine with a bird sign. Her arrival made the dozing bartender and the owner look up in surprise. It was obvious that they had been in business for a long time.
"This customer..." The owner was about to ask what to drink before leaving, but his eyes were immediately attracted by Moya's right hand that was wearing.
The rose ring worn on the middle finger faintly flashed and the red light shook across the owner's eyes. The honest and honest middle-aged man immediately respectfully approached Moya and handed over a scroll of evil skin that he took out from his arms.
"Your Excellency, what you want is ready."
The deliberately lowered voice even Slin, who was following Moya, could not hear their conversation clearly. The cavalrymen leaning far away at the door could not know the content of their conversation. However, the Luo Lian nobleman seemed not interested in Moya's secret conversation with the shop owner. Instead, it was the mage Slin. He was about to walk in and was stopped by Moya's sharp gaze.
"Good roots... How is Cludia going?" He opened the scroll in his hand and browsed it carefully. Moya's mouth raised an undetectable smile.
“It was ready a month ago, and you can start the action just by waiting for your order”
"This is your reward, I will see the results tonight." Light the scroll in my hand with the candlelight on the table. Under Slin's surprise light, Moya turned around and left, and threw it to the owner a leather pocket full of things as he stepped out of the store.
The wine door was closed and the mage saw the owner with a bright smile on his face and took out a huge yellow stone from the bulging bag.
Yellow diamond?
How much is this full bag worth?
Not to mention buying news, it's enough
"It's getting late, let's find a hotel to take a break for a while. If the nobles in the city don't do anything, they will set off to Cludia tomorrow." Searching the streets with their eyes, Moya tried to find an inconspicuous corner to stay for the time being, but Alec, who had not spoken behind him, spoke at this time.
"If you want to rest, I sent someone here a month ago to buy a temporary resting house." It was obvious that the Luo Lian nobles pointed to a luxuriously decorated building opposite.
Knowing the customs of the nobles, it is impossible for them to be wronged and stay in those small hotels with Qingmin. Moya could only give up her original plan to live in such a conspicuous place and any small move would not be difficult for the nobles to pay attention.
So I hate nobles...
Thinking of what to do tonight, Moya couldn't help but frown
Entering this house with few servants, seeing that there were no outsiders, Moya suddenly lowered her face and called out to Slin, who was originally going to arrange a room for him to rest.
"We have an agreement. Mr. Mage, I will take you out of that cave safely, and you will not ask about anything about me anymore." Looking at Slin behind him with a puzzled look on his face, Moya mentioned the old story again.
"Do you remember how you promised me at that time? Before you arrived in Cludia safely, you and the captain couldn't ask me anything, no matter what... I want to do."
"Of course I remember..." At that time, in order to leave the Abyss Demon Realm, Slin agreed to Moya's request and of course he did not forget it. It has only been a few days since the incident happened.
The unknown dialogue between the hotel owner and the high priest, and the bag of priceless yellow diamonds, Slin will inevitably think about the bad things
The Night Elf is currently an ally with the Church of Light, and as an enemy country, Ningal, the Dark Night Priestess who leads disasters wherever she goes, will never be as simple as she said. What is the purpose of her visit to the royal city
"Alec, why don't you go directly to Russel, but instead follow me? Itil is so worried that I will be a private enemy and massacre the city?" Moya, who was originally warning Slin, suddenly shook. She turned around and stared at Alec Alonzo, the leader of the dragon cavalry, and the expression of contempt and disgust towards the enemy appeared on her face again.
“When did you find it?”
———
Alec spoke for a long time, and there was no previous scattering in his tone
"Hmph... Your acting skills are not as bad as a family with the title of Dragon Knight for 400 years, and a nobleman with the title of First Knight in the South Continent. How could he be the kind of scum who teases women casually? Besides, you have the unique holy power of Itil, I will not admit my mistake.
Don't underestimate the Night Elf's intelligence network, don't underestimate my observation, Alec Alonzorolian"
"What"
When he realized that he was so surprised that he shouted, Slin immediately covered his mouth. Fortunately, there were no outsiders here, only the mercenaries and a few knights in his team.
Grand Duke Luo Lian... This means that the man in front of him is the supreme ruler of Luo Lian. General Dragon Cavalry, known as one of the three major military generals of the Holy Empire, is also the only member of the royal family among the five major dukes of the Empire's dependent countries.
It can be said that he is one of the most important core members of the Holy Empire. Why would such a person with a noble status take the risk of running to the territory of the enemy country?
"Will the old man of the Dharma Emperor hope you can convince Russell to give up his alliance with the demons? This idea is too naive. Even if you are his cousin, that stubborn king will never give up his ambitions."
"I never thought of persuading Russell, I came to release the detained church members according to His Majesty's wishes, of course, I will monitor you by the way." A serious expression was replaced, Alec's calm lawsuit surprised Slin very much.
It turned out that their encounter with Fei Yan on the ice field was not accidental, but was deliberately arranged.
High Priest... Did she notice this, so she easily agreed to their request
Skipping at the same serious woman beside her, Slin couldn't help but sigh. When did he become so stupid, and he didn't even see through such a simple plan.
"Is that true... But I don't see the Duke like this. What are you conspiring with the Emperor? I don't want to care or interfere. But... If you want to hinder my revenge, I advise you to give up that stupid idea as soon as possible
You know, I will not take into account any alliance, nor will I take into account your noble identity. Once it hinders me, no matter who it is, I will remove him." The sharp murderous intent in my black eyes made Slin unable to help but take a few steps back. In contrast, Alec, the nobleman of Luo Lian, who had always been hippie and smiling, now he has no original casualness, his expression is serious and indifferent.
Looking at the two people who were tense with concern, Slin couldn't help but be afraid that they were fighting like this.
Although Moya is a high priest and is proficient in various spells, he cannot resist the attack of a high-level knight in melee combat. Without the guard knight with him, no matter how powerful the high priest is, the great wizard will be in danger of his life.
The alliance agreement between the Church of Light and the Night Elf is only based on common interests. Once the interests are deviated, their alliance will be at any time.
Could it be that Ningal is willing to give up joining forces with the demons?
No, this is unlikely
Then why would the priestess of the Dark Night say conspiracy again
"You are too worried. His Majesty the High Priest is just worried that you will kill Earl Bai Ling. After all, he is different from Batua as the heir of the vassal state of the Holy Empire. His identity is very different from that of a magic academy."
"Why..." Moya sneered, but he was still staring at Alec who was not far from him, unwilling to relax.
Without Sistale's protection, she would definitely not be able to cast some time-consuming advanced spells at will.
Although the Church of Light is an alliance, it is not trustworthy. The old fox of the Dharma Emperor could not guess what he thought. His current friends might be the enemy in a blink of an eye.
She didn't want to take risks, let alone... this separate courtyard had a high-level barrier set up early. If he had no selfishness, why would he lead me here?
I originally thought it was an old aristocrat who had an old problem and didn't want to live in a simple hotel. But after entering here, Moya sensitively noticed the existence of the barrier, which broke the inside story that he had noticed shortly after meeting.
"Of course, you may think my behavior was rude and boring, but I was entrusted by someone to say those disrespectful words. Please forgive me for this. In fact, I didn't plan to bring you here at first. This was all the instructed by that adult." Alec turned slightly and saluted Moya.
"You..." I realized that the other party could not have such a polite behavior towards him. From the time of meeting, this Grand Duke Luo Lian's eyes were filled with deep disgust.
Thinking of this, Moya suddenly turned around, without the members of the Light Church as imagined, nor did he have the nobles of Ningal, and only her familiar figure behind her
"Defick...how are you here?"
