[Sword Three] Lord wants to cut the cloud dress

It was Li Zheng's third day in the blacksmith shop, and Eschera, who had disappeared for a while, suddenly came to the door.He opened the door nervously, and after seeing Li Zheng, he looked around in a panic.

"Where's Bismarck?" he asked, not even wiping the sweat from his brow.He walked around in a circle, but didn't see the figure of the man, so he could only look at Li Zheng who was beside him.

"He went to the street. He has been on the street since yesterday." Li Zheng fiddled with the crossbow in his hand.That was his latest experimental product - a crossbow gun that could automatically superimpose paralyzing effects.He carefully cleaned the extremely simple and heavy crossbow gun, and weighed it twice.

Very good, although it looks heavy, it is actually very light in the hand.It's a nice finished product.

In the past two days, he has used Nero's blacksmith's platform to make a crossbow gun and several daggers.Although there are no exquisite patterns or carvings on these weapons due to time constraints, Li Zheng is still very satisfied with his finished products in terms of practicality.

He put down the new crossbow gun in his hand, and decided to try it with Canruila in a while.

"Yesterday, he said he sensed the presence of the dark church, so he went out alone to investigate. Although nothing happened until midnight. What's wrong?" Just as he put his weapon away, Li Zheng noticed Eschera's expression With some hesitation, he asked immediately.

Eschera shook his head, as if he felt that the walls have ears, so it's not appropriate to say more.Li Zheng understood, and dragged out a chair to signal Eschera to take a rest.

It didn't take long for the blond mage to return to the smithy.When he saw Eschera, he knew that there must be information about the Dark Church.So he stretched out his hand, and in Li Zheng's eyes, it was only a very short time to read the note, so he set up a restriction around the blacksmith shop.

Although it wasn't the first day I knew that Bismarck's spells were really strong, but I always felt that his spells seemed to be more against the sky than before.Li Zheng frowned and thought so.

The previous problems of kidney deficiency and long reading seem to be becoming less and less common.Although the character's status bar still shows level ten, I always feel that his current strength should be more than that.

Is it an illusion?

He shook his head, regardless of whether it was an illusion or not, this was a great thing for them who were about to confront the Dark Church head-on.In contrast, I, who was still only in the single digits, seemed somewhat inadequate.

Speaking of this, Li Zheng was a little crazy.The task of protecting Nero that he received from Jasmine is still hanging high on the top of the task bar until now.The status of the task has been shown as completed, but because he has not seen Jasmine so far, he has no way to hand it over, and naturally he cannot get the reward.

It's crazy to be crazy, but when he thinks that Jasmine's legs can walk again, it doesn't seem so important for him to turn in the task later.

Withdrawing these messy thoughts, Li Zheng looked at the two solemn mages in front of him.

"In other words, the Free Church is very likely to have contacts and cooperation with the Dark Church?" Bismarck leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, seemingly not surprised by this conclusion.

But this sentence obviously frightened Li Zheng.He blinked several times in a row, and then looked at them with a horrified expression: "Wait, wait... What are you talking about? Why can't I understand all of a sudden?"

Eschera looked solemn, and seemed unwilling to repeat the matter again.In the end, it was Bismarck who explained: "Eschera managed to check all the forest-related tasks in the Adventurer's Guild in the past few months or even years. Those tasks are nothing more than finding objects or people. One At the beginning, the number was not too much, with an average of one or two in a few months. However, the number has increased significantly in these few months. Not only the ones received by Nero and Daisy, but also many others Object-finding missions. And most of them are below AA level."

"That is to say, someone is indeed deliberately leading adventurers into the forest." Li Zheng nodded: "This must be done by the Dark Church. A large number of tasks are released to lure most of the adventurers who are not outstanding into the forest. Then cast dark spells to turn them into zombies. That makes sense, but what does it have to do with the Free Church?"

"All are posted anonymously." Bismarck replied out of the question: "All these tasks related to the forest on the outskirts of San Rafael are all posted anonymously."

"This doesn't mean that the Free Church is suspected?" Li Zheng was a little at a loss.

"I once told you that there have been rumors that that forest can only be entered and cannot be entered a few months ago." Bismarck stepped forward, and happened to walk to a map of the Twin Continents on the wall of the blacksmith shop.He pointed out the location of the forest, and then continued: "It stands to reason, according to the regulations of the Adventurer's Guild, once there is a large-scale casualty or disappearance of an adventurer in a certain task or a certain area, the A warning will be issued within the guild."

"But no." Li Zheng's mouth made an O shape: "Because there is no, someone should be deliberately concealing it."

"That's right." Bismarck nodded: "The cities bordering on both sides of the forest, one is the town of Ringle, which is mostly civilians, and belongs to the kingdom of Luke, the neighboring country of Raphaels. The other side is San Raphaels City. Because the city of San Raphael is relatively prosperous and there are many adventurers, most of the tasks related to the forest will be received in Raphael. Therefore, if such a large number of adventurers disappeared but did not report, the problem must be It came from the Adventurer's Guild in Raphaels. The question now is, who has such great power to control the Adventurer's Guild?"

"Church." Li Zheng understood.Bismarck had mentioned to him just before that the Free Church had the most power in Raphaels City.The royal family that was originally centralized/centralized is now only an empty shell, like a puppet that is dying.

"Wait." Li Zheng stretched out his hand in front of him: "You guys are still just guessing. Although it sounds reasonable, there is no conclusive evidence. It seems that it is a bit too hasty to doubt the most powerful church in a country."

After all, this suspicion is not a simple matter of casually suspecting that Zhang San or Li Si next door stole his own sheep.If the guesses just now are correct, they are likely to stand on the opposite side of the entire Free Church.That's not a joke, fighting against others in other people's territory, isn't that just asking for death?

"I... sneaked into the headquarters of the Adventurer's Guild." Ascher, who had been silent on the side, opened his mouth: "It is basically certain that the Freedom Church did it. In fact, the next thing is me Worst news for you."

He paused, swallowed, and said slowly as if he didn't know how to speak: "The Adventurer's Guild in the upper city has actually fallen."

When he said this, his hands clenched into fists involuntarily: "There are zombies everywhere. Their eyes are dull and their shapes are haggard. Although they are completing the work that is not different in peacetime, I think you all It's clear just by looking at it...the Adventurer's Guild is located in the headquarters of San Raphael, and there is no one alive."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head, and his words were almost trembling: "And the Freedom Church... In the depths of the Freedom Church headquarters, there are mages in black robes everywhere. If you didn't see it with your own eyes... If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes... I wouldn't even dare to..." Halfway through the words, Eschera was already trembling all over.His eyes were dark, as if he didn't want to believe what he said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present froze.

"What did you say......"

Li Zheng turned his head and saw Nero walking down the stairs with his eyes wide open, looking at the middle-aged mage in disbelief.

The author has something to say: It's a little less -- but there are a lot of things at home these two days... I can only put a little bit of TUT first.

Well, I will try to find time to update!
