Destiny Thief

Chapter 145 Bishop Vera's Prophecy

That's the beauty of having privilege.Although the merchants crowding in front of the city gate were somewhat dissatisfied, they didn't complain at all—the team entered one by one from the crowd, and they noticed that there were several young nobles among them.

Although the collar flowers and cuffs are dirty and worn out, they show their identities - the exclusive decorations of nobles.In the Kingdom Code, this is not something that ordinary civilians can wear casually, even if it is imitated according to the general appearance, if it is accidentally seen by officials, it may be arrested and given a whip. It's the "overstepping system"...

Thinking of this, some wealthy businessmen showed fascinated looks—in the Elante Kingdom, as well as some other human kingdoms, there is a strict hierarchical order between nobles and nobles, and between nobles and commoners.But since the Sixth Eta War, an unwritten rule has gradually become popular in the Northland: If you want to become a nobleman, you don’t have to go through the troubles like before. Er, you can also obtain the corresponding identity and conferment documents. From then on, you can become a real nobleman and get all the conveniences brought by your identity.

Of course, this noble status is not hereditary, but it is enough, because everyone is well aware of the difficulty of obtaining a hereditary title of nobility - His Majesty the King must personally confer the title and allocate the territory.Except for the vast northern land and the western frontier, every part of the kingdom has long been filled with nobles, big and small, and the royal family, in recent decades, has not been willing to carve their own flesh and divide the territory directly under the royal family into the fiefdoms of the nobles. .

Maybe it would be nice to spend some rael on a "dogskin hat".

The merchants looked at the procession and thought.However, they quickly discovered that some of them were men and women dressed as mercenaries—Mickey was walking in the crowd, his small eyes kept glancing at these businessmen. As mercenaries, these guys are very likely to become their Business patrons.

"My name is Mickey. I'm back from an honorable adventure mission. This is our team. You may have a chance to hear our name soon."

He paused, then shouted to a bright-headed merchant in a silk robe with a round belly.In the mercenary business, popularity is a very important thing. When he came to Afron for the first time, he did not forget this matter—he seized every possible opportunity to hype himself.He did the same thing at Boomer in Lakis back then, and he took these things as his valuable professional success experience.

The famous "Toad" of the Boomer Mercenary Guild - people there used to call Mickey this peculiar nickname.Every time someone mentioned it in his ear, he would always narrow his eyes and show a proud attitude.In fact, this nickname is just used to describe his loud mouth, but he seems to have no self-awareness.

His voice was clear, and every sentence fell clearly in the ears of the merchants, who were stunned for a moment.Until the figure of this team disappeared into the distance along with the officers, the merchants returned to the previous crowded queue and started talking to each other again.

After walking a certain distance in the city, Miss Glo and Miss Lena followed the officers and went straight back to Clover Manor. Lady Mage Radia followed the bandit leader; while Cody and Lars accompanied Alisa They went to the local Holy Radiance Church, and priest Winnie Karami was with them, and five mercenaries followed behind the girl.

Winnie found Bishop Vera and reported to him the course of the expedition.Afterwards, she introduced the five mercenaries to the Bishop. Bishop Vera took them to an office room in the back hall and began to question them in detail.

The stories that happened to the five mercenaries—starting from the adventure team of the Boulma Mercenary Guild, to being in distress in the ruins, and then to the high tower prison.The lich with the purple soul fire, the constant death of his companions, the supply of food in the dungeon... Bishop Vera learned these trivial information from the mercenaries one after another.

Angela was still hesitating whether to tell the kind Mr. Lich, but Mickey on the side almost told the story before the bishop asked about their escape from prison— ——Different from his seemingly simple and honest appearance, he is eloquent and vividly narrated the journey of escaping from danger and returning to the surface world. The other four listened to the ears, and there was a feeling that the story was far more thrilling than the real one.

Before the round table, Bishop Villa kept nodding.He held a quill in his right hand, and wrote several key messages on a piece of light gray paper: the ruins, the abomination, the dungeon under the tower, the two liches, the cemetery city, the passage... all The information in his mind became a thread of clues.

Angela said that set of numbers, and the bishop knew it immediately. This is a coordinate.

channel coordinates?

Bishop Vera fell silent, and the lie detection magic that was released in secret never showed any abnormality—what the five mercenaries said was completely true.He faintly felt that this was a conspiracy by Dill's undead, but it was difficult for him to figure it out for a while because of a strong smell of something wrong.

Use the tunnel to attack Dill's dead?

Even if this is not a bait, in terms of materials and staffing, Aflon's branch church does not have this strength.After thinking for a while, he ordered a young trainee priest to take the five mercenaries down to have a good rest. He returned to the prayer room alone, and silently prayed a passage of holy words——

Prophecy!
A ray of bright light fell from the night like a bright star, hitting his white bishop's robe.He closed his eyes, and such a picture appeared in his mind - a deserted and solemn city, with a gray-black cloud floating in the sky, and the cloud slowly circled around a point, and after a long time, he felt lost.Below that point, there is a majestic and majestic building, a palace made of blood-colored granite stones!
This is?

Bishop Villa couldn't help being shocked.Immediately afterwards, he saw dozens of liches, death knights, and vampire lords walking out of dozens of steps in the palace. He tried hard to see these faces clearly, but suddenly, a hunched figure lifted up. Head, eyes seem to be looking directly at him.

This gaze was sharp and substantive. Bishop Vera groaned and fell down in the prayer room, muttering to himself: "The Undead Council...the Lord of Calamity..."

……

Another monthly meeting of the Cemetery City is being held. The speaker Eddie Gregory is sitting in the chair and listening to the suggestions and opinions expressed by the members. He is silent, but at that moment, he I noticed a line of sight that seemed to be spying.
