Alien Knights

Chapter 496: Unexpected meeting

   "You mean Myris?!"

   Todd, who reacted, got up from the chair, his volume also increased by three points.

   Seeing Todd look like this, Rachel sighed inaudibly: "People from the Alien Association, found them at the back door of the Governor's Mansion..."

   Todd recalled the kind old monk and the little things in the monastery. The whole person seemed to be calm, still there motionless.

  Rachel approached him and whispered: "I must remind you that the throat bone is a very dangerous and crazy person, and Miles who walked with him must have been affected."

   Todd asked Rachel, "Are you trying to say that Myris has become dangerous and unpredictable?"

"Over the years, there have been rumors that the throat bones under Saladin's hands have been doing some "dirty work" that no one is willing to do. For example, helping the empire eliminate rebels, cleaning up the old noble forces, etc. Since Myris and him Together, naturally participate in it."

   Todd asked strangely: "But the question is, how did Miles get together with him? At first, the old man suddenly left everything in the monastery, and left without saying goodbye. I have never figured out this matter."

   "I don't know the specific reason." Rachel said in a low voice, "In the past, the Presbyterian Church sent people into the barracks of the Throat Bone, hoping to inquire about some intelligence, but all the people who were sent will never return."

   Todd picked up the robe on the chair, dressed it neatly, put down his hood, and said to Rachel: "Tell me where the Governor's House is? I want to see it."

  Rachel looked at him worriedly: "I will go with you."

   "No, you are here to protect those ancient writing notes, I assure you, I will not have anything."

   After saying this, Todd used the power of "transformation" to transform himself into another look, and even his voice was very different from usual.

Rachel took out a map from his sleeve, pointed out the location of the target for Todd, and finally said again: "Remember! If anything goes wrong, you must leave the city immediately, don’t worry about me. I naturally have a way to leave safely."

   Todd pressed the brim of his hat, nodded to Rachel, and left the tavern.

  Walking on the streets of Anuda, Todd followed the map that Rachel gave him and walked in the direction of the Port Governor's Mansion.

   The closer you are to the target, the more guards there will be along the way.

   At the gate of the Governor's Mansion, hundreds of imperial guards blocked the water surrounding the entire mansion, and every pedestrian was repeatedly interrogated and searched.

   Todd glanced a few far away, and found that the defense was too tight, then he gave up the idea of ​​sneaking in and planned to return to the tavern the same way.

   Just then, an old voice sounded behind Todd: "You shouldn't be here."

   Todd turned around, and the familiar face of Miles appeared in front of him.

   It's just that compared with the past, the old man has lost his shape, and his face is withered like a skeleton. The most shocking thing is that his eyes have turned white.

   Todd was ready to take trouble at any time, and tried to ask: "Do you know me?"

Myris touched the top of Todd's head, and suddenly smiled: "My ability allows me to see the color of the soul, and your soul is the brightest among all people... Todd Fischer ."

   Todd turned one hand into a dragon shape in his sleeve, and the other hand shook in front of Miles' eyes: "Your eyes?"

   "How ironic, I used these hands to heal your eyes. But God deprived me of my vision in order to punish my crimes, and I had to face the ugliest thing in the world."

Recalling the scene in the monastery where Master Miles healed his eyes, Todd's voice became hoarse: "Master Miles, go with me, let's go home, there are many people waiting for you... Karin , Edgar, little Jerry..."

Miles shook his head: "Todd, I have fallen to become an accomplice of the devil, and have lost the gift of God forever. Don't let my footprints defile that sacred land. This is a land of right and wrong. You should leave as soon as possible. ."

   Todd whispered, "You are my first teacher. Without you, I would never have the chance to live... No matter what you become, the door of God will always be open to you..."

   Miles's face showed emotion and guilt. He opened his mouth, trying to say something, but he didn't say anything.

   At this moment, an imperial guard officer walked towards Miles and said, "Sir, the Caliph is looking for you."

   When he walked to Myris's side, he immediately looked at Todd suspiciously, and asked, "I'm very familiar with this person, who is he?"

Myris quietly pulled the corner of La Todd's clothes and motioned him not to speak: "He is a scholar in the north and a friend of mine. This time he came to me to discuss academic studies. But unfortunately, he did it. Going back..."

   "A scholar from the north?" The chief guard stared at Todd and said with a smile: "That's right. The Caliph is about to discuss academic studies with you. I think the Emperor will not mind if there is one more person."

   Myris was about to say something more, the chief of the guard had already called the soldiers involuntarily, and motioned for Myris and Todd to enter as soon as possible.

Walking in the garden of the governor’s palace, Myris leaned close to Todd and whispered: “When you see the emperor of the empire, you don’t need to be too cautious, but don’t be too casual. Saladin has always been tolerant of the words and deeds of scholars, but this is not It doesn't mean that his patience has no bottom line."

   At this time Todd was dumbfounded. His original plan was to find Miles, but he didn't expect to meet his worst enemy, Saladin.

   The legendary great emperor, the invincible **** of war, the caliph who enjoys both reputation and infamy.

   Thinking of this, Todd suddenly realized that in his heart, he was actually looking forward to meeting Saladin.

   Through a corridor full of soldiers, Todd walked into a room full of bookshelves and desks, and finally saw Saladin's true face.

This middle-aged man who is not angry and prestige ~lightnovelpub.net~ has a handsome face that makes people feel good. He doesn't look like a general or an emperor at all, but more like a Elders who have been immersed in academics for many years.

   But to Todd's surprise, Saladin's complexion didn't seem to be very good, and his body seemed weak due to a hidden illness.

   "Myris, you are here." Saladin looked away from the book and said cheerfully.

   When he saw Todd, his expression was obviously stagnant, but he quickly returned to normal.

   "It's rare to have a guest today, Myris, don't you plan to introduce it to me?"

   Myris glanced at Todd, took out the lines he had prepared beforehand, and slowly said: "Great Caliph, this is a scholar from the north, and also my best friend, his name is Toltai."

   Saladin clapped his hands and smiled and said, "As long as you are in the land of God and drink the fruit juice from God, then you are my distinguished guest of Saladin."

   Todd, who could not understand them at all, could only smile politely as they listened to the conversation between the two in imperial language.

   What Todd didn't expect was that Saladin quickly used the idiom and said to him: "Toltai, IMHO, you don't look like a scholar."
