Heaven’s Intention

Chapter 180 House Arrest (Part 2)

A moment later, a man with the appearance of a captain of the guard followed around ten people. He was not tall, but his eyes were piercing. He asked, Your Excellency is Lord Romonfanada Tattershaw?

Yes, who is your Excellency? Luo Mengyang answered quietly.

The captain nodded slightly and said, Don't dare, I'm the church guard captain, and I'm ordered to take you to the Qatar area.

Romon nodded slightly, but the man didn't even say his name.

Lord Tattershaw, then, please! The soldier captain made a gesture of invitation, but this was only a superficial courtesy.

Romon smiled wryly, and looked to the side, there was already a carriage. This carriage was gray and narrow, and it felt a little uncomfortable depending on the situation, so he had to get on the carriage.

The captain of the guard followed beside him, and the other soldiers were either in front or behind, completely in a protective posture, surrounding him and walking towards the city.

Stop first, I have something to say. Walking on the road, Romon said suddenly.

The captain of the guard waved his hand, and the team stopped immediately. Lord Tattershaw, what are your orders?

The way of speaking in chess is still very humble.

Romon tentatively asked: Before I go to Qatar, can I send a letter to my subordinates? They don't know that I'm here this time. I'm afraid that my disappearance will cause them to panic.

Sorry, my lord, because our mission belongs to the church, you can't contact other people for the time being. However, you just need to go and assist in the investigation. The captain of the guard replied politely.

Hearing that he couldn't contact other people, Romon's heart tightened, and he began to have a bad feeling.

Of course, these ten people are all lower than level five. No matter how strong the Lord of Radiance Church is, it is impossible to use knights as soldiers. With his combat power, he can instantly settle these ten soldiers and walk away. The authority of the Lord, it is not in Romon's character to sink the boat like this before he has figured out what is going on.

So, Romon just sighed and said, Okay, let's go on.

The captain of the guard nodded, stopped talking, and waved to the others, and the team moved on.

on the way

Although it was night, many people still saw the group of people and glanced curiously. However, once they saw the gray carriage, everyone's expressions immediately changed and they hurriedly avoided it.

Seeing this situation, Romon felt even more uneasy, and began to understand his current situation. To put it mildly, he was invited to assist in the investigation, or to put it mildly, he was half-arrested.

The road was silent, and soon, the group of them came to an area. This area was full of soldiers, and many knight leaders with the holy emblem of the Lord of Radiance were patrolling.

Driving along a main road, Romon saw a temple and a barracks, and felt even more uneasy.

At this time, Romon didn't know yet. This Qatar area is the famous Inquisition. Of course, it is only a branch here.

It is said that the Inquisition, three or four years ago, tried the king, and Faki VII spent the last three years of his life in the Inquisition.

Of course, such behavior completely angered the aristocratic class. Only in this way did the god of order and law, Saddat, rise rapidly, and he had the potential to fight against the lord of glory, maintaining the nobility and order from being violated.

However, up to now, although the authority of the Inquisition has dropped significantly, some small nobles have been imprisoned from time to time, and Romon is not the first one. Not the last pound either.

At this time, Romon didn't know this, but. He saw high walls and arrow towers, guards in uniform, patrolling back and forth, this was beyond his expectations, no matter how you look at it, this place looks like a prison.

Here again, a long way. Then. They stopped in front of a very imposing building. The building is divided into upper and lower floors. Including the basement floor, there are four floors in total. The soldiers directly brought Romon to the basement floor.

Walking down the several-meter-long steps, Romon began to know that something might happen today.

Sure enough, after walking the steps, what appeared in front of him was a long corridor and houses on both sides of the corridor.

My lord, I have wronged you for a while. Let's report to the bishop. You can rest here first! Very politely, but firmly, Romon was pushed into a room.

It was only when I entered that it was not a small room, and it was fairly clean, except for a few straw blankets, there was nothing else.

There was an old man inside, a middle-aged man in his thirties, and a teenager. When Romon was pushed in, they all raised their heads. Some complicated eyes were cast on him.

The sound of the iron door being closed came from behind, and Romon now understood his situation. This is a prison, a prison belonging to the church, there is no other place like this except a prison.

Young man, you were also arrested by them? Come, come, sit here. The two-year-old man didn't respond to Romon, but it was the old man who saw Romon standing there in a daze Looking around, he couldn't help waving and telling him to sit next to him.

Romon also wanted to know the situation, so. According to the words, the concubine passed.

Young man, why were you arrested by them? Is it also because of tracing or accidentally discovering some recent situations? the old man asked, looking him up and down.

The old man was short in stature, with disheveled hair. Wearing glasses that are rare in this era, this is an item that can only be made by magic unions, obviously this old man. Not ordinary people either, most likely academics.

Of course, Romon had just come out of the mining area at this time. Although they changed their clothes, they were only better than ordinary people, and they basically looked like middle-class citizens.

Hearing this, Romon was shocked.

My name is Romon. Which gentleman are you? I think, what is your situation? Romon carefully chose the words: I was brought in for questioning because of the mining area.

When Romon spoke, the old man kept staring. After a while, he said with a wry smile: Young man, you are very cautious, but there is no need here, did you find something from the ground?

Romon looked at the old man in surprise: How do you know?

I, Lun Lun, a scholar in the city, recently discovered that there was movement in the Anshad Canyon, and many monsters appeared. I went to investigate and was brought here. Not only me, but they all Injustice, it happened to be a local witness, and he said something! The old man smiled wryly, and pointed to the two people beside him. Seeing that they pointed at themselves, those two people just looked up at them indifferently, then lowered their heads again and continued to be in a daze.

Actually, it's not just us, these few... Cuiqi Lifanjing has arrested many people one after another. The people I posted in Yifeng, the previous batch of people have already left. The old man Lu Lun finally said with a sigh.

Leaving? Romon didn't understand: Where are you going?

Don't understand? Of course you are dead! If you go away, you are dead! They are all dead! They are all dead! We will die too! Those of us who know the inside story will be executed! If I had known, I would not have seen me Report the monster to the church! I thought I could get some rewards, but unexpectedly, I will die here! I still have a wife and children to support me! I don’t want to die yet! I still have my parents waiting for me to go home! They These damned guys! I hate them! I hate them! The middle-aged man who had been silent all this time suddenly raised his head and said in a stilted voice.

Keep your voice down, do you want to die now? Scholar Lu Lun spoke hastily, and then sighed again: If I had known it earlier, I wouldn't have told you. Hey, it's a common problem of scholars!

As a scholar, Lu Lun certainly has analytical skills, and it is easy to distinguish the news that makes people despair.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man stopped, and then, after a moment of stunned, he held his head. Weeping in a low voice.

As soon as Luo Meng looked at it, his heart sank little by little: Could it be that I also want to die here? Just because the underground mining area has demonic things?

Almost at the same time, above the prison of Romon, in the conference room on the third floor of Wei, five bishops were discussing the life and death of Romon.

In the conference hall, various small statues were placed on the long table. The statues were all kinds of heroes, each of which glowed with a faint holy light. Appear holy and benevolent.

But in front of them, the topic being discussed is not so beautiful.

I think that no matter who it is, it cannot be released. If ordinary people know about it and cause panic, the consequences will be very serious. At that time, it will be beyond our control. The 30-year-old bishop who was speaking Left and right, with natural indifference in their eyes, they spoke mercilessly: According to historical records, information was exposed several times before, which led to widespread terrorist lies, and even led to the collapse of the anti-magic front. Except for a certain level, no one can be an exception.”

This person is the bishop here, the bishop of the Inquisition, Master Su Sim.

Hearing his words, some of the other four bishops present nodded in agreement, and a few showed hesitation.

Bishop Suxim, I disagree with your opinion. It is necessary to block information and prepare for battle. But the evil disaster is imminent, and it may break out within a year. At that time, those who should know will still know. Kill now What's the point of killing so many people?

The person who spoke was also a bishop, a tall and thin man, about thirty years old, wearing a holy robe, with seven golden threads, shining under the magic lights in the hall, this person seemed to be a little different from Bishop Suxim, He raised his voice against it, and when people looked at him, he said calmly: Secondly, even if it is to block information, it is enough to lock up these people temporarily, and there is no need to execute them all? Especially this Romon, he is a registered official of the kingdom. Although the nobleman on the register is only a small lord, he cannot be dealt with hastily. You must know that although the power he has now is not as good as that of a baron, it is not much worse, because this matter killed He is not suitable.

Yeah, no matter what, Romon is now a lord, so he can't be too hasty. Why don't you bring him up for interrogation to see what his attitude is. After all, he is the lord of that territory. According to the oracle, He can't escape! An old bishop said, his eyes shining with wisdom.

Kill believers and nobles of other gods at will. This is why the Church of the Lord of Radiance has been slowly declining for nearly a thousand years. After all, it is easy to arouse the resentment of other gods, especially the nobles.

It doesn't matter if there are two nobles, but the tendency of the entire noble class is very strong, and even the divine weapon cannot be ignored. The Church of the Lord of Glory once carried out the cleansing of the noble class, but this was only effective for a short time, and in the long run . The disintegration and centrifugation is faster, and the church has gradually paid attention to this point.

The old bishop's words carry a lot of weight. After a while, the bishops' meeting produced a motion, tomorrow. Summon this lord.

At this time, Luo Meng, who didn't know that he had already walked around the gate of hell, was talking with the old man in a low voice, while the other two were still in a daze.

At this moment, the iron door slammed and was pushed open from the outside.

Come out! Several soldiers came in from outside. Pull up the middle-aged man and the boy next to him and walk out.

You what are you going to do no I don't want to die the middle-aged man shouted in fear.

Shut up! A soldier pulled him away impatiently, saying in his mouth, they didn't have the heart to talk to the person who was about to be executed.

Wait a minute, where are you taking them? Romon stood up at this moment.

The soldier glanced at him and said coldly: I said, this gentleman, mind your own business. Don't interfere with our actions.

With that said, he dragged the two of them and walked out.

The iron door was slammed shut again. But now in the room, only Romon and that line are left. Old man.

Are they going to be executed? Romon asked incredulously.

Here, life is so cheap?

In their simple exchange just now, how could he understand that those two people were free citizens with clean backgrounds, and they were executed like this?

Hey! This is not the first fall. Don't sympathize with them any more, we won't stay here for too long. Scholar Lulun sighed and sat down. Generally speaking, the higher the status, the execution is true Still be cautious.

He is a well-known scholar, so he can at least live for a long time. As for the ordinary citizens, they have discovered things that should not be discovered. If you are stupid enough to spread propaganda everywhere, you will be arrested and executed soon.

Romon also sat down next to him again, feeling chills in his heart. This was the first time he encountered such a situation in this world, and it reminded him of the famous purges, which were also arrested and executed so quickly.

Scholar Lu Lun continued: As you saw just now, many people have been executed because of this incident. In fact, there are many changes in the basement, and the higher-ups have known about them for a long time, but they don't plan to tell ordinary people. People know, so as not to cause panic and we, therefore, will be the ones who are sacrificed.

The one who was sacrificed?

Romon, who was stunned by the sound of the wind, looked at the empty room. The two of them were still there just now. Now, they should not be there. Life is so fragile. For the first time, Luomeng showed unprecedented confusion and fear. (to be continued)
