Chapter 1604: unusual dark master

The latest website: "Send them all to the farm, and let the old tree root check!" In this team of people directly under the dark master of the Red Clay City, a middle-aged man with supernatural strength who is not very strong looks at them who have been knocked out. Those who were caught in a frantic slaughter gave orders to the ordinary city guard soldiers who followed closely behind the team, and then rushed to other blocks with their men and horses.

Leo did not follow behind the team to observe their actions, nor did he follow the ordinary people who deal with follow-up matters to the farm they said, but he left some psychic marks on the two men and horses respectively, so that later able to find their whereabouts.

After leaving the mark, he did not stop any longer, but rushed towards the location of the marks on the clergy of the Justice Church.

Those people retreated very quickly, and according to the situation, there should be an inner response in the inner city. When they saw that the direct team belonging to the dark master had been dispatched, they retreated from the inner city very decisively. At this moment, they had gathered the inner city wall. A certain location, it feels like it's about to climb over the wall to the outer city.

When Leo felt that there was a commanding height in the nearby block suitable for observation, he had already seen that the guards hired by the inner forces who were responsible for guarding the city wall were assisting the clerics to climb over the wall through the rope ladder and leave.

Among those who had not left, Leo saw the Archbishop of the Church of Justice, who was in charge of directing the operation. At this moment, next to the Archbishop, there were three other Church Paladins who were not bad at all. What were they talking to him about? , judging from their expressions, it doesn't seem very pleasant.

Leo did not approach, nor did he use any supernatural powers such as witchcraft, because he could feel the traces of the actual combat of magic around those people, it should be some magic to prevent supernatural power from eavesdropping.

Although it is impossible to eavesdrop on their conversation through extraordinary power, Leo's extraordinary five senses can still easily hear the conversation at this distance under this circumstance. Leave the voices of the several senior clerics of the Justice Church talking.

"Are you sure all the dark masters are dead?" After Leo adjusted his listening method, the archbishop's voice appeared in his ears very clearly, as if he was standing beside them listening.

"Yes, it has been confirmed repeatedly. They are indeed the dark masters of the Red Clay City." Although a paladin is not much worse than the archbishop in terms of strength, it is a lot worse in terms of priesthood, so he seemed a little humble when he answered. .

"How can those directly under the Dark Lord appear?" The archbishop said angrily: "Those people and the Dark Lord made a divine contract, and only the Dark Lord of Red Clay City is qualified to command them. Now these people are all Being mobilized, it means that the Dark Lord of Red Clay City is still alive."

"Could it be that our intelligence has gone wrong?" Another Paladin guessed: "The people we killed were actually just stand-ins for the real Dark Lord on the bright side."

The archbishop was silent for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Impossible, we have repeatedly verified that those people are the dark masters, and it is absolutely impossible to make mistakes."

"Don't be so absolute, have you made fewer mistakes before?" The eldest of the three Paladins seemed to have a bad relationship with the archbishop, and directly retorted: "According to me, at the blacksmith Before Pukit's accident, you were not sure who the dark master was. It was not until a series of reactions in the inner city after Kit's accident that you determined that Kit was one of the dark masters, and then through Kit's daily behavior , Assuming other dark master lists, in fact, you have no idea in your heart from the beginning, so the people on the list include the leaders of the middle and above forces in the entire inner city. If you really know who is the dark master, you only need to It's enough to kill those dark masters and those in power at the top level. There is no need to kill so many people. The end result of this is to expose all our arrangements in the Red Clay City, and now we are all lost. Had to abandon the plan of Red Clay City to retreat and leave."

The archbishop said with great dissatisfaction: "Enough! What do you know, the plan for the Red Clay City has been successful, we have collected enough experimental data, the church's..."

"You can speak louder, so that I can get rid of you directly on the grounds of leaking the secret." The elder paladin put his hand on the long sword around his waist, interrupting the Archbishop's words, while the others around him Although the two paladins didn't want to be enemies with the archbishop in front of them, they had to put their hands on the weapons and pretend, after all, the excuses given by the older paladins were very sufficient.

Facing the threats around him, the archbishop's face became extremely gloomy. He looked at the clergymen who were not looking far away and were burying their heads over the wall. He knew that he had almost missed his mouth. His plan was publicly announced, and the three Paladins in front of him would really kill him, and even the other clerics who heard it would be silenced.

The elder paladin unceremoniously pointed out the Archbishop's mind and said: "I heard that during this holy disaster, many people at the top of the church are responsible for the sleep of our Lord, and there will definitely be major changes in various positions, you You can't wait to start the arrangement of the Red Clay City, you probably want to use the achievements of the Clay City to transfer yourself back to the main church, right?"

"This is just what you think. In fact, my approach is not wrong at all. The sudden death of Kit, the dark master, is the best time to stir up the red earth city. Otherwise, with the current dark master system of the red earth city, I want to make the red earth city chaos Get up, I'm afraid it will not be enough for another ten years." The archbishop defended very strongly: "And you should know that the dark master of Red Clay City has already doubted the seeds we planted, otherwise, they will not put those savage seeds. The guy is here, if you don't start it at this time, everything will be exposed after a while."

"What about the exposure?" The old paladin sneered: "Even if it is exposed, it has nothing to do with us. They will only think that it is the actions of those blasphemous heretics, and now? All the hasty actions left too much. Traces, once the turmoil in the city subsides, they will immediately start an investigation, and the church will be exposed to them at that time. All this is caused by your wrong decision, and I will record it truthfully in the report. "

"You also said that only when they start investigating can they find out that the church exists." The Archbishop showed no worry at all, but he sneered and said, "In that case, it's okay not to let them investigate."

"Don't let them investigate?" The two younger paladins looked at the archbishop in confusion, while the older paladin showed a thoughtful expression.

The archbishop said with great confidence: "The monster city of Red Clay City has been standing on this land for too long. It is using the war between the Green Emerald region and other forces for profit all the time. This evil behavior must be punished. I think both the nobles in the Emerald region and the Rorohir people want to see this city disappear. Do you think they will take advantage of the civil unrest in the Red Clay City to solve the cancer that has been entrenched in this land for many years? ?"

The older paladin said with great dissatisfaction: "You have already destroyed the church's arrangement in Clay City, and you still want to expose the church's people in Roro Hill and Green Jade, and take care of the aftermath for you, don't you worry about things? The more and more trouble, the complete exposure of the church's layout in the Middle Kingdom area, will it not end in the end?"

The archbishop looked at the other party, didn't say anything, and didn't seem willing to discuss with them. Instead, he turned around and walked into the crowd, commanded the inner responders in the city, and quickly transferred his subordinates to the outer city.

"His Excellency Archbishop should not..." The young Paladin looked at the Archbishop's figure and hesitated.

Before he could finish speaking, the old paladin sighed and said, "He has no way out, and he will definitely use all means to solve the matter in the Red Clay City. Let's consider how to deal with the loss if there is an accident. Reduce it to a minimum?"

"Aren't you going to stop him?" another Paladin asked.

The older paladin glanced at the other party and said in a meaningful way, "I still want to live."

After he finished speaking, he had no intention of continuing the conversation. He raised his hand and made a gesture. The magic around him to prevent prying eyes disappeared with the gesture, and then he saw him take out some ore powder that looked like some kind of ore. The things that were scattered around, completely eliminated the traces of the actual combat magic. Following him and the other two Paladins, they sat on the hanging basket, climbed over the city wall, and went to the outer periphery of the other side. urban area.

Leo did not stop these people from leaving, because it was not necessary. Although the clergy of the Justice Church made a very decisive decision to retreat, and the arrangement for the retreat was extremely perfect, they obviously underestimated the eyes and ears of the forces in the city. O is not the only spy, in fact there are several hidden compartments in the surrounding blocks, hidden in the walls of buildings, or in the statues of fountains, and in each of them there is a watcher looking through what looks like a periscope. Tools such as speakers and hearing aids are monitoring the movements of the clergy of these churches.

Because it's not just looking directly at the senior clergy of the church, neither the archbishop nor the paladins have any sense, and they don't know that their every move is being monitored, and the content of their conversations is also the first time. The watchers were sent away.

Leo was also surprised by the appearance of these monitors. In fact, when he chose the current commanding height to monitor, he never thought that the people in the Red Clay City had discovered the retreat route of the clergy of the Church of Justice, which made him realize To the extent that he is a little underestimated by these people in Red Clay City, or more correctly, these dark masters in Clay City.

Obviously, apart from the unfortunate assassin of Kit, who was suddenly assassinated, the other dark masters in Clay City were probably not dead as the Paladin of the Justice Church said. Those who died in the hands of the Justice Church were all arranged by the dark masters. The chess pieces on the bright side, the dark masters have been hiding in the dark to monitor every move of the Justice Church from the very beginning.

In fact, thinking about the turmoil in Red Clay City is a good thing for the dark masters who hide in the city and control everything in the city.

First of all, the various forces in the inner besieged city will be reshuffled in the turmoil. The dark masters who control the real power can take this opportunity to expand their own power on the surface, and they can also strengthen the power they control secretly.

Secondly, through this chaos, they can justifiably solve some of their confidants and consolidate their power.

In the end, in the turmoil, people like the Righteous Church lurking in the red clay city will either actively or passively leave the red clay city. In this way, the interior of the red clay city has been thoroughly purified, even if the overall strength of the red clay city is weakened. , but the core strength has been consolidated.

The only thing these dark masters need to worry about now is what the Archbishop of the Justice Church intends to do next, which is to join forces with the Green Emerald Region and the Rorohir to attack the Red Clay City. If the Archbishop really does If it is time to let the two feuds abandon their former hatreds and join forces, then let alone the situation in Red Clay City, which has experienced civil strife and has suffered a major loss of strength, even in its heyday, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist such an attack.

The most ideal way to solve this crisis is to keep all the members of the Justice Church in the city before the Justice Church lobbied both sides, but not to mention whether the people of the Dark Lord of the Red Clay City can join an archbishop and three saints. In the case of the knights joining forces, all these senior clergy members of the church were eliminated. Even if they were all killed in the city and pretended to be caused by turmoil, the people of the Justice Church would probably not believe this kind of disguise. Will use more violent means to directly attack the entire Red Clay City, UU reading www.uukanshu. com did not even rule out using one of the strongest magic techniques to level the clay city.

Although doing this will cause the Righteous Church to fall into controversy, but now for the Righteous Church, the last thing to worry about is the controversy. They just need a target that can allow them to re-establish their prestige. At this time, anyone who dares to have a positive relationship with the Righteous Church Those who are in conflict or forces will face the most fair and violent revenge from the Righteous Church in the near future.

The dark master who wanted to come to the Red Clay City also thought of this, so they were persecuting the people of the Justice Church to withdraw from the Red Clay City from the beginning to the end. Given the situation under surveillance, it is not difficult to set up a deadly trap.

For Leo, a bystander, the situation in the Red Clay City became interesting. He felt that the Dark Lord of the Red Clay City was not as simple as he thought, and even what the Church of Justice did in the Red Clay City, these Dark Lords might not be as simple as he thought. Also know why.

It's a pity that he has other more important things to do in this trip. If it's not troublesome, he intends to get a little bit of information about what the Justice Church has done in Red Clay City from these dark masters, and then leave Clay City and go directly to Green Emerald area.
