Chapter 82 What if you kill the cardinal? (asking for first order)
What the hell?
Philip's magic power increase can give me a full point of free attributes?
Roya felt strange about this.
It's not that he looks down on Phillip, but it's too sudden. Did this kid take a panacea?
Well...
Roya suddenly became thoughtful.
Although this seemed like a good thing, for some reason, he always had an ominous premonition in his heart...
How about taking another look at Phillip to make sure he was okay.
As soon as he thought of it, Roja summoned the young dragon, mounted the moose and rushed towards the direction of Border Town.
"Thum thump, thump thump..."
The moose carried Roja past the mercenary camp.
He found that there seemed to be fewer personnel stationed here, with almost only one-tenth of the original number.
Now in the entire outer area, except for some herbs and rare woods that can be collected, there are no monsters to hunt. Probably because of this, the mercenaries gradually withdrew their people.
Moreover, the Eagle Group may also be worried about attacks from some high-level monsters deep in the mountains.
It was noon, the autumn air was crisp, and the sun was giving off a faint halo.
The Eagles set a spell here.
When Roja came outside the town, he saw through his aura vision that there was a thin layer of magic like a gauze covering the entire town.
It should be an exploration type...detecting the undead?
He thought for a moment and simply put away the moose.
Let the young dragon continue to maintain the ghost curtain, and he has restrained his aura to the greatest extent. Ordinary mercenaries will only think that he is an ordinary skeleton when they see him.
Then, Roja walked into the exploration circle set up by Finn and Calvin, without causing any reaction.
Philip's house is on the edge of the town, in a very remote location.
When Roja rushed here, he saw a big hole on the ground inside the house at a glance!
What a surprise!
He first walked to the big pit and looked around, and
found that underneath the house was a foundation made of gravel and sand, and then below was a large piece of hard rock.
But now, the entire foundation of the house has been penetrated, and the rock has been completely cracked, leaving a clear punch mark on it.
The gap extending from the fist mark was deep and long, dividing the entire foundation into several parts, and even extended to the surrounding walls.
This house now would probably collapse if a few adults hit it hard.
Was this a punch?
The power is really terrifying!
Roja felt that ordinary super-level warriors, like assassins, would never be able to achieve this level.
He might be able to achieve similar effects with his martial arts killing moves, but strength alone wouldn't do it.
Did the mercenaries of the Eagle Group do it?
The Philippians are definitely still alive, but where exactly are they?
Roya looked around the house and found no clues, so he walked towards the nearest farmhouse.
The man closed his eyes and whispered:
"Philip... Philip is a necromancer. He secretly instructs the undead to kill innocent people..." "
Now he has been caught by the Eagle Group... and will be burned to death by the church..."
Through the young dragon's With his hypnotic ability,
Roja successfully learned the whereabouts of Philip from the farmer, and also roughly guessed what happened to the boy:
——He was discovered to be a necromancer by a mercenary, imprisoned, framed, and about to be taught The priests were sent to the stake.
Isn't this too tragic?
Learning necromancy is really risky, something happened so quickly!
Roja frowned inwardly.
He decided to go to the hotel to take a look first!
Leaving the farmhouse, he walked toward the center of town.
There were not many pedestrians on the street. Occasionally farmers and small vendors passed by, and it was very deserted.
Roja could clearly see:
the closer to the center of the town, the stronger the magic in the air, indicating that the detection ability of this spell is gradually getting stronger!
Finally, he came to the "Eye of the Formation" - the hotel where the Eagle Regiment was stationed.
From Roja's perspective,
compared to other parts of the town, it was simply a "magic house"!
The extremely rich magic power flows like mist, mixed with several powerful auras, some of which are even stronger than the ancient ghost Chris!
Among them, there are four people with super-level magic power, and together they maintain the entire exploration circle!
Now, Roja was standing a hundred meters away from the hotel.
He couldn't take another step forward. If he took another step forward, he would risk being discovered! At that time, the ghost curtain will not work, and there is a high probability that it will be "dented" by the strong magic power, and he will be directly exposed!
This is simply a dragon's pool and a tiger's den surrounded by mountains of swords and seas of fire... To break in is to seek death.
Roja silently took a few steps back.
Now that the entire hotel is used as a base camp by the mercenaries,
it is estimated that all magic stones, money, herbs and other valuable goods will be stored here, so that he will no longer have the opportunity to take advantage of them.
We still need to obtain information first. The information the farmer knows is too vague.
Roya waited quietly until a mercenary walked out of the hotel.
He followed it to the corner, pulled the mercenary into the ghost curtain, controlled it, and handed it to the young dragon to hypnotize him.
From the mercenary, Roja learned more detailed information:
- Cardinal Winston will burn Philip to death in public in Border Town in about three months, a few days before the New Year!
After asking questions, Roja loaded the mercenary's body into the storage space.
Three months, before the new year!
At least Philip will not be in danger of his life in the short term.
Roya breathed a sigh of relief.
Afterwards, he let the young dragon possess a sparrow and fly into the hotel to try, hoping to eavesdrop on more information.
"Crack!"
As a result, before the sparrow could fly to the door of the hotel, it was chopped into charcoal by a silver lightning!
Damn it!
Roja turned around and left without hesitation!
The next second, a woman in black robe flew out of the open window on the second floor of the hotel.
It is the deputy leader of the Eagle Regiment, a young-looking archmage whose actual age is over 50 years old, the Forest Witch Anna!
"There is an enemy!"
She looked around with lightning eyes,
then waved her right hand, holding a black wand like a pointer, and a broom appeared under her body, she clamped her legs and rode on it.
The witch flew around the hotel on a broomstick, looking for anyone suspicious.
Calvin, Finn and others quickly walked out of the hotel, joined her, and began to cast detection spells.
Hiss, this group of mercenaries...
Roja turned around and took a look from afar, and had to leave here quickly.
After leaving the confines of Border Town, he began to think as he walked:
Why didn't the Eagles kill Phillip immediately?
Because it is to be given to the church.
There are rewards in the empire for reporting heretics, especially necromancers, who are notorious heretics throughout history!
Will it alert the cardinal?
That is a priest whose status is second only to the pope!
I'm afraid even the emperor of the empire will respect him!
The Eagle Group must have regarded Philip as a gift to please the church, or there might be some insider trading!
In other words: they attach great importance to the boy, just like a valuable commodity.
Thinking about the worst: It is estimated that all the mages have already left spiritual marks on the young man, and there is no way he can be quietly taken away and hidden!
So the final result is:
Unless you defeat the entire Eagle Group, you can't save Philip!
Phew - three months...
Roja covered his forehead and felt a little headache.
Of course he won't sit idly by, but when it comes to the church and the Eagle Group,
those captains, group leaders, deputy leaders, a group of super-level people, even close to awakening... He can't find opportunities to assassinate each one, right?
Maybe you can kill one or two, but if you kill more, you won't have a chance.
Three months later, can he challenge that group of people alone?
Roja felt a little heavy. It wasn't that he didn't have confidence in himself, it was just that he didn't like the feeling of being coerced.
Hmm, single out a group...huh? !
Hiss - wait!
As the saying goes, "If the problem cannot be solved, solve the person who raised the problem."
If the cardinal is killed, is that okay?
