Gold is Justice

Or, is she already married?Have you formed your own happy little family?Did my old father become a grandfather without knowing it?

Thinking of this, the smile on the corner of Saint Cake's mouth couldn't help but become more intense.He took a deep breath, opened his arms wider, raised his head to face the sun, and let the warm light shine on him more...

"The ghost tree in the mausoleum!"

A familiar voice sounded, causing the Holy Cake to open his eyes suddenly!

But before he opened his mouth to recite the defensive spell, some dry and dirty black branches sprang out from the bottom of his feet at this moment, bound his body, and even directly used a huge The burl jammed into Wafer's mouth, preventing him from uttering a single word!

The sanctuary, which had not recovered much magic power, could not move. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the person standing in front of him who had just finished casting a spell——

Huailin·Xin Yu.

The forest mage held a staff in his hand, and his upper body was naked, but the lower body of his entire body was made up of many branches interlaced to form four feet, allowing him to stand there like a four-legged animal.

Seeing that he hit the target in one breath, Huailin smiled on his face.This smile touched his cracked skin, it was really scary to see.

"Good job, Huailin."

Another voice sounded, and the holy cake could only roll its eyes, and saw three other people slowly gathering from all around.

The leading person was none other than the guard who was standing next to Viscount Norris when he asked to see Arrow.Now the sanctuary also knows his name.

Crowbar Unbelievers clutched his chest, his complexion looked a little pale, and he walked over with a limp, as if he was seriously injured.

Look at the other two members, who are also seriously injured now.

But even so, when the holy cake was about to struggle, Huailin still held up the tree and vine staff in his hand, wrapping him even tighter, unable to utter a word in a daze.

"The damn mermaid song... really caused us a lot of trouble!"

The crowbar walked up to the sanctuary and pulled up the staff in front of him.

The staff of light was held in other people's hands, and the place where the light was shining slightly on the head immediately dimmed.

"Heh, it is indeed a weapon made by the Holy See of Light, but it still has the power to recognize the Lord?"

The crowbar snorted coldly, weighed the staff in his palm, and handed it to the entourage behind him.

Huailin walked forward slowly, looking fiercely at the immobilized holy cake, the corner of his mouth opened into a smile, touching the spider web-like wound on his face, making him look even more horrified: "President, Do you want to... kill him right now? If there are no accidents, he is the strongest existence of Mermaid Song. If you kill him, Mermaid Song will be no different from a puddle of mud."

The crowbar hecked twice, and looked up and down at the holy cake in front of him, with an undisguised killing intent in his eyes!

However, this killing intent lasted only for a short while. Soon, he waved his hand and said, "Although I really want to, Viscount Norris does not want to be hostile to the Holy See. If the Holy See is allowed to Knowing that one of their high priests died at our hands, do you think His Excellency the Viscount will reward us? Or just cut us off and hand us over to the Holy See of Light?"

After being told like this, Huailin realized what a bad idea he had come up with, so he could only shut up and step aside without speaking.

Shouting off his subordinates, the crowbar stepped forward again, looked at the sanctuary with a smile on his face, and said slowly——

"Your Excellency, High Priest, please forgive our brother for what he did before. To be honest, we really don't intend to be hostile to the Holy See of Light. Therefore, we will definitely not hurt you at all."

The sanctuary stared wide-eyed, looking at the crowbar with anger in his eyes.

"We, and our master's goal has always been to make money. As long as we can make good money, we have no interest in things like human life. Before this action against you, we have also investigated, and after we understand it, we know that you are not They belong to the official guild members of Song of the Mermaid, but they are only temporary residents under the name of their guild. It is precisely because of this that we have no choice but to ask you to stand here and listen to us quietly."

The expression on the crowbar was very respectful. Looking carefully, apart from full of flattery, there was indeed no disrespect.

After nodding and bowing to the wafer with this smile, he went on—

"Your Excellency the High Priest, our master wants to make Mermaid's Song less profitable, and at the same time wants to take the name 'Guild War' into his own name. For this reason, the guild war in Pelican Town is It definitely can’t end perfectly, there must be a big mess as the final finishing touch.”

"Our member Huailin told me that the main reason why Song of the Mermaid can guarantee that there will be no casualties in the guild war is the defensive magic of the High Priest. In other words, as long as there is no magic of the High Priest 'Holy Grace', then the next two games Mermaid Song will definitely fail. When there are casualties in tomorrow night's game, the last game, or Mermaid Song completely recklessly spends a lot of money to invite both guilds to continue Fight, or you can only declare the end."

"No matter which one it is, Song of the Mermaid will definitely hurt your vitality. If the two guilds are killed or injured, they will transfer their anger back to Song of the Mermaid. For us Killer Bees, there is a problem with the two guilds. That’s what we’d love to see.”

"Therefore, we wanted to make His Excellency the High Priest temporarily unable to cast magic to achieve this goal. Considering that His Excellency the High Priest has used so much light magic before, and the weather is so good today, there is a high possibility that you will leave the town , we followed you. Fortunately, you really came out alone as I predicted."

The mouth of the holy wafer was gagged, unable to express any opinions at all.But the crowbar knew exactly what he was talking about, nodded immediately, and said with a smile: "I know, I know exactly what I'm talking about. And I can probably guess what the high priest is thinking. You You must be thinking, why should you help us? And if we treat you like this now, aren’t we afraid of being questioned by the Holy See in the future?”

While talking, the crowbar smiled and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "Scared, we are really scared. We are just a small guild in Lagoon City. Even if we have a good relationship with His Excellency the Viscount, it is impossible for His Excellency the Viscount to fight for us. Let’s talk about the issue of the Holy See~~~”

Putting down his hands, the face of the crowbar was filled with a dangerous flattering smile: "So, we want to make a deal with Your Excellency the High Priest." Your Excellency the Priest has been looking for his lost daughter in the first border war all these years, right? Well, it is indeed very easy, after all, every high priest of the Holy See of Light needs to disclose all his past, in order to tell Every believer expresses his purity and devotion. And for so many years, His Excellency the High Priest has traveled all over the country to inquire about a red-haired girl. It is not difficult to find out."

"So... if we are willing to provide clues about your daughter to His Excellency the High Priest... are you willing to conclude this deal with us?"

In an instant, the sanctuary's eyes, which were originally full of anger, immediately became astonished!

The body that was always trying to struggle also stopped at this moment, just staring blankly at the four people in front of him.

Seeing this, as soon as the crowbar raised his hand, Huai Lin retreated its magic, and the burls and branches that blocked the sanctuary slowly shrunk back into the soil.

Chapter 190 Two Scars

As expected by the crowbar, the high priest in front of him didn't step forward desperately, but looked at him anxiously, his eyes full of expectation.

"You... know? Really know... my daughter's clue?"

Hearing these trembling words, the crowbar knew that his goal was about to be achieved.

He nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Well... to express my sincerity, let me say a part first. After the first war that year, the troops of the Hunting Seat Empire have entered the place where you lived at that time. Near the village. And your daughter was brought into the army of the murderer at this time. Later, with the agreement between the two countries, the hunter's army returned to their country, and your daughter was also taken out of it out of the country."

"I don't know if this can explain why you have been looking for your daughter in the Blue Bay Empire for more than ten years, but there is still no news of it?"

The sanctuary was already stunned at this moment, as if the shadow that had been cast in his heart for a long time finally revealed a ray of dawn at this moment!He clenched his fists tightly, and his expression was even more excited: "You...how did you...know?! This kind of thing...how could you know?!"

The crowbar smiled slightly and said, "Your Excellency, as a deal, I naturally need some trump cards. If I tell you everything I know now, how can I guarantee that you will abide by us?" What about the deal between them? Well, time is running out, and we will not prevent His Excellency the High Priest from continuing to recover his magic power. The four of us are currently injured, and it may not be impossible if the High Priest must knock us down. But if If Your Excellency the High Priest is willing to save our lives now... Four days later, after the guild war collapses, we will come back to find Your Excellency the High Priest and tell us everything we know."

Now Sanctuary is in complete disarray.He stretched out his hands in front of him, his expression was happy for a while, sad for a while, nervous for a while, and a little timid for a while.

But when he realized that the four people in front of him turned around and were about to leave, he suddenly came to his senses and shouted: "Wait a minute! You...you..."

"Oh, by the way, Your Excellency the High Priest, we almost forgot."

The crowbar turned his head, glanced at the staff of light in his hands, and said with a smile——

"If you stop helping Song of the Mermaid for no reason, that short president will definitely be suspicious. So we can help you create a reason, you just say... our Killer Bee Guild attacked you and took away your staff , so that you can’t cast a large-scale magic like Holy Blessing. Therefore, this staff will be handed over to us for safekeeping. After the guild war is over, we will return it in its entirety.”

The sanctuary opened its mouth, but for a moment it didn't know what to say.Another member of the killer bee, who was empty-handed, slowly moved behind the sanctuary and raised the dagger in his hand.

"At the same time, in order to show as much as possible that Your Excellency the High Priest was indeed attacked by us and had to lose his staff, we must cause some damage to you. So, please be patient, we will notify the people of Pelican Town to rescue you as soon as possible. You. Before that, please be patient."

After finishing speaking, the crowbar bent down towards the sanctuary like a distinguished nobleman, and bowed to the high priest in a serious gentleman's manner.Huailin on the side and the guild members holding staffs also saluted together.

At this moment, a sharp stabbing pain suddenly came from behind.With the blood flowing out of the body, the power also quickly disappeared from the body.The sanctuary gritted her teeth, reached out and pressed the wound to activate the healing magic.At the same time, they could only watch these people take their staffs and walk away melodiously.

But for him, the slightest desire to stop him is gone...

"What? Uncle San Biscuit is injured?!"

Airl was sitting at the dining table, waiting for dinner to start, and jumped up from his seat!He could hardly believe his ears!

At the same time, the other members who returned to the guild and waited for dinner also stood up at this moment, with panic and worry on their faces.

"That's right! President Airl! When some of our townspeople went to the Shining Forest, we suddenly saw the High Priest lying in the middle of the road with blood all over his back! You...you should hurry up and take a look! Now Korra The doctor is treating the high priest! Hurry up... Hurry up!"

The townspeople who came to report the news were panicked, and after speaking, they led the way and ran outside the guild.

After Brad, Buffy, Cream and Coco heard the news, they chased them out without stopping.But after rushing out the door, Ke Ke turned around, only to find that her president was still standing still?

"Brother President? What are you waiting for!"

Cream in the front heard Coco's voice behind him, he glanced at Brad and Buffy who had followed the townspeople to Dr. Cora's clinic, and stopped to look back at Airl.

(The Shining Forest? Uncle Santa Cake can understand, after all, there are few people there now, and it is a good place to absorb the light elements, and he is very strong, so there is no need to worry. But it is still winter now, and the plants in the Shining Forest are still there. It started to grow, and all the townspeople clearly saw that the magician was friendly to the forest elements, and being close to the forest meant danger. I also specially asked the mayor to ask the townspeople not to leave the town from the east. Anyone taking the road to Shining Forest at this time?)

Although Airl's mind was full of doubts for a moment, no matter how many doubts there were, it was impossible to overcome the fact that the sanctuary was indeed injured.

Airl shook his head, immediately left his seat and followed him out the door.

Crossing the streets of the town, Song of the Mermaid and his team quickly arrived at Dr. Kola's clinic on the east side of the town.As soon as he opened the door, he saw that the holy wafer was now lying on his back on the treatment bed, and the pastor's robe on his back had been taken off, revealing the terrible wound.Cora on the side is preparing medicinal herbs and carefully applying them to the wound.

"Uncle Holy Cake?! What's going on?!"

Ke Ke was a little nervous, the little girl rushed to the sanctuary faster than anyone else, and asked nervously with her hands on the treatment bed.

The holy wafer is now lying on the stomach, eyes closed, and seems to be falling into a coma.

"Go, go! Go, don't disturb my treatment!"

Dr. Kola blasted Coco away, continued to apply crushed herbs to the wound on the back of the sanctuary, and said while treating——

"Fortunately, it was discovered early, Your Excellency the High Priest was seriously injured! The person who did it was really too ruthless! Oh, by the way, President Airol, the diagnosis and treatment gold is 5 silver coins. It is winter now, and the medicinal herbs are scarce. A few neighbors and I even took great pains to transport the High Priest back with a carriage, five silver coins is not much."

Even now, Arrow is not in the mood to argue with the barefoot doctor about these few silver coins.He quickly looked around the clinic, but found that there was still something missing, and immediately asked, "Money is not a problem. Dr. Cora, did you find Uncle Cake's staff when you brought it back?"

"Staff?"

Cora's face was overjoyed after hearing that the president did not intend to be stingy with the medical fee, and after thinking about it, she shook her head——

"Not found. When we saw it, His Excellency the High Priest was lying on the ground, and there was no trace of a staff at the scene."

No staff?

Airl frowned involuntarily.

But now that the sanctuary was in a coma, he couldn't ask any more questions, so he could only ask the doctor about the condition of the sanctuary.

"Your Excellency the High Priest was seriously injured, but fortunately he was discovered early, and you seem to have been using light magic to heal yourself, so your life is not in danger. When it was transported to me, it seemed that you finally exhausted your magic power and passed out. Ah! Although it is not life-threatening, it does not mean that my treatment fee will be discounted!"

After hearing that the sanctuary was not life-threatening, Airl let out a long breath.

But although there is no danger to life, the current problem does not mean to alleviate at all.

That night, the entire Mermaid Song was with Cora in the clinic, tending to the unconscious Wafer.

During this period, both Jushan Guild and Soul Flame Guild came to visit, and everyone was surprised and resentful about what happened to the Holy Cake.

Needless to say, those who would attack Song of the Mermaid at this time would have no other thoughts than the escaped Killer Bee Guild.Everyone expressed their condemnation of this vile and despicable guild, and at the same time unanimously assured Airl that after returning to Lagoon City, this guild will be disabled and killed!

For the attitude of these two guilds, Airl expressed his gratitude.After seeing off the two guilds, the townspeople headed by Round Cheese came to visit.Airl accompanied the mayor to say something, and at the same time said that this would not have any impact on the guild war, and then sent him away.After going back and forth like this, by the time everything was quiet, it was already late at night.

"call……"

Standing in front of the window of the clinic, looking out at the brightly lit Pelican Town.

Most of the town's residents and visitors certainly won't know what's going on here.They are still enjoying this last carnival, making loud noises and enjoying life in the prosperous streets.

But all of this seems like a kind of irony to Airl now.

No, it is more appropriate to say that it is a kind of ridicule rather than irony.
