A subjugated princess will never die a vagabond

She organized refugees to capture several groups of horned orcs wandering in the woods. In peacetime, such people would be sold to the Devil's Cave for mining, but now, Cloris can only tie them up in the open space and keep them safe.

Some horned orcs came with wanted notices, with Mariana's portrait printed on them, and the reason they sneaked around was to confirm that they were correct before claiming the reward.

Although the eye-catching red hair has been cut off, the woman's handsome face is still unique in Faljar, and it is hard to forget once one has seen it.

Cloris asked Alista to raise her concerns, but the nun was calmer than ever. She was preparing something recently, and the usual anger on her face was replaced by an unusually gloomy calm.

"Let them come," Alista told her.

Then he told Cloris to put the necessary books, supplies, enchanted arrows and crossbows into the space of the Ring of the Void, and let her prepare for the lower world at any time.

Of course, Cloris could guess that Arista and Marianne must have reached a certain level of cooperation, and slipped away with a vote for the Imperial Coalition Forces.

At least that's what she thought at the time.

36. Bounty

The town of Faljar is almost in ruins, and only the Elizabeth Hotel still stands proudly. When thousands of imperial coalition troops stationed here and a large number of officers moved into the hotel, the original elves had no choice but to give up most of the rooms, and a family squeezed into the hotel. together, or move to neighborhoods that escaped the baptism of war.

The situation in Portur Bay is still at a stalemate. The Farnese are indeed fighting on two fronts, but the pressure on the Teribi's front is also not small. In order to maintain the rule of the lower realm, the elves will not bet all their fleets on an air battle.

Other countries are paying attention to the situation and watching it with eager eyes.

Osgar was sitting in a spacious suite working. As the first heir to the Principality of Varia and the nominal commander of the United Fleet, he did not need to participate in this battle. No less.

He can be called young and promising. He was called by Lieyang when he was six years old, and he had a place in the local bishopric at the age of 13. He graduated from the military academy with the best graduates in history. He was promoted to the rank of brigadier general at the age of 22. made outstanding contributions to missionary work.

Today's communication has popularized "telegraph" technology, and more advanced equipment can not only send text, but also transmit images.However, due to the interference of the fog, the communication between the upper realm and the lower realm would occasionally be distorted.

The secretary is standing at Osgar's desk and reporting on his work:

"Yesterday our soldiers performing missions in a nearby village were ambushed by a group of French remnants. Seven were killed, four were injured, three enemy soldiers were captured, and one was killed...they looted the armory and The source slurry inventory of the furnace has enough resources to make highly lethal traps."

"It's the end of the mountain, how can the Farnese do this?" Osgar frowned. At this time, the ordinary army had already lost their morale and raised their hands to beg for surrender.

"This time our opponent is that Marianna. She likes to use the Priest of Dawn in the army. On average, there is one clergyman in every ten people to stabilize the morale of the army. These heresies are very inflammatory..."

"What about the captured Frenchmen? What do they say?"

"Not yet..."

"Burn it, hang at the entrance of the Black Forest, it's best to arouse the anger of those Farnese," Osgar waved his hand wearily, and then said, "Let Commander Brunn's fleet launch towards the Black Forest Incendiary bombs, force out the Farnese, I want to capture Marianna alive, and sacrifice their national hero to the scorching sun..."

"The port does not allow a large number of warships to dock. Commander Boothwell has already set sail at midnight to assist the Allied forces in Portur Bay. He left behind a Twilight-class battleship and seven patrol airships without much equipment."

"Did that woman just let it go?" Ogasil clenched his fists and looked fiercely at his secretary, "Do you know that what I want most now is to get her, and then, Burn her!"

The secretary didn't speak. He didn't intend to discuss with his lord the rationale for Commander Brun's actions.

As a fanatical follower of the Church of the Sun, Osgar is always ready to burn the stake, ready to burn the heretics into ashes at any time.If it weren't for the Church of the Sun's need to maintain a cooperative relationship with other churches in order to stabilize its orthodox position, Osgar would have burned other false gods to ashes and let the only blazing sun come down to the world!

"Dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Osgar put away the fierce look in his eyes, rearranged his appearance a little, and smiled gracefully.

An imperial officer led two vulgar and dirty Nethermen into the room.

One of them had a horn on his forehead, and he was a Sindor under his allies. The other had a dark complexion, with crystals visible to the naked eye condensed on his body surface, and he was probably a native of Faljar.The two were nervous and excited, looking up and down at the furnishings in the suite.

"My lord, these two people claim to have seen Mariana." The officer stepped forward and saluted.

"Sir, my lord!" The Sindo was a servant at any rate, and he gave a nondescript salute vigorously, "We saw a woman who looks very similar to Mariana, and we know where she is!"

"It's just similar?" The corners of Osgar's raised lips curled slightly.

"No, it's not very similar, we're sure it's Mariana!" the Sinduor quickly changed his words.

"If it's not...do you know the consequences of lying to me?" Osgar covered his mouth and nose, disgusted and impatient, "How could those invincible elves use such dirty things like you? If you want me to say, low-level species should Purified by the scorching sun."

"It is absolutely impossible for me to deceive the lord!" The Sinduor was suddenly terrified, he fell to his knees, and pointed to the Faryal next to him to explain, "He told me the news, he stayed in that correctional institution , was kicked out for stealing! We tortured the Lord, that woman Mariana must be hiding in the reformatory!”

"Correction center?" Osgar frowned, "There is still such a place... No matter what you say is true or not, I will go and have a look."

"The lord... the [-] Aegis on the reward order...?" The Xin Duor rubbed his hands greedily.

Osgar understood, he smiled and said, "This is easy to handle."

With a "snap", as the man snapped his middle finger and thumb, the skin texture of the Sinduor immediately lit up with a red glow visible to the naked eye. Pieces of ashes.His bloodshot eye sockets struggled to say a thousand words, and finally turned into two cokes and rolled to the ground, breaking into broken dust.

He disappeared, leaving only a field of embers.

"Sweep the rubbish into the box, and use [-] Aegis to punch him in a coffin."

The exchange rate of Aegis to Terripe Pound is 3.5:1, [-] Aegis is enough for ordinary civilians to live comfortably for a lifetime, and it can also allow the dead of Xin Duo to sleep comfortably.

The Faljar native next to him had never seen such a method before. He collapsed in panic and kept yelling: the word devil, devil.

"Ignorance and ignorance."

Osgar gave a "tsk", and laughed again in a blink of an eye——

"The bounty should go to the person who sees it, isn't it?"

……

"Ten thousand Aegis, it's worth about three thousand pounds, damn it, it's worth several times more than mine!"

Cloris was eating in the cafeteria, and in her hand was a wanted warrant with Mariana's side face printed on it.

A well-meaning refugee noticed Marianna's specialness, so he handed over the arrest warrant he had picked up to Cloris. As for what to do with the girl, the well-meaning refugee didn't care, nor was he interested in the bounty.

Not to mention the bad things that the empire forcibly recruited town residents and confiscated the residents' property, even if the merciful imperial people really gave [-] Aegis, he would never be able to walk out of Far Yar with the money.

Although the woman in the photo is also young, she is a little more passionate and childish than the serious army commander in front of her.

Just when Cloris was feeling emotional, a refugee ran over to inform her, out of breath: "Little nun, there are many, many soldiers outside the woods, those guys who occupied the town!"

37. Osgar

The Imperials are coming!

Cloris didn't expect that before Alista made a big move, the opponent would strike first and play sneak attack!

This has always been the girl's hidden worry. In the face of war, all living beings are like ants. How can this reformatory named Star Church and Terribi Kingdom be spared?

"You provoked them here!" Cloris was already dissatisfied with Marianna, and she also vented her emotions at this moment.

But incompetence and rage were of no avail in the end. Cloris just glared at Marianne at the opposite table, and told Xia Xia to stay in her bedroom, while she left immediately, preparing to find Arista to deal with the troublesome imperials.

However, there were already screams and begging for mercy from outside the building.Cloris watched from the window, dozens of imperial soldiers with live ammunition were sweeping away the unsightly camp, and opened a spacious passage for the young man behind them covering his mouth and nose.

Some affected refugees were devastated, and some tried to plead and pray to the young man, but when they touched the corner of the other man's clothes, they were burned to ashes for no reason, and there was not even a trace of flame!

As for the young man who did all this, there was no compassion or cruelty in his eyes, only a little dullness and impatience, as if what had been burned by extraordinary power were just talking weeds.

Most of the tents were very simple, and they almost collapsed when they were pushed. The execution efficiency of the imperial soldiers was obvious to all. Soon, the open passage led directly to the gate of the correctional center. The children at the gate immediately ran away in a panic, leaving only a dazed cat The young girl with ears limp on the ground, terrified and at a loss.

It's a reformatory child!

Seeing the young man walking slowly towards the reformation center with an impatient expression, Cloris hurried downstairs, and when she ran to the door to pick up the little girl, the young man was already close at hand.

"Excuse me, is Mariana here?" The young man asked politely.

"Who is Mariana, and what are you doing here? This is the property of the Star Church!" Cloris bluffed, but she didn't expect her words to have much effect.

"That's such a pity." The young man stretched out his right palm, raised his middle finger slightly, and the temperature around him suddenly rose.

"Clores, don't come near him!"

The moment the sound sounded, a light curtain stopped Cloris in front of her. Countless red micro-foam burst on the light curtain, and the dense particles were broken into dust, which rolled back into the young man's body.

He grinned: "If you are really hiding here, why didn't you come out earlier and let so many innocent people die because of you?"

Seeing that the refugees who were in a bad situation had already been hiding as far away as possible, Cloris patted the cat on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, find a room to hide."

"You go in too," Mariana said.

"I'm right at the door, it doesn't matter." Cloris replied.

The woman knew that the essence of the reformatory was a spectacle, and that rough nun would definitely not sit back and watch her own person get hurt right under her nose, so she stopped persuading her.

"Osgar Warbleton, the symbol of the spiritual vein is the sun worm, which can use the source force to reproduce the source crystal worm to infect the living body. It is known that the ability is to manipulate the source crystal worm and control the flames. The god-endowed skills are unique to the Church of the Sun [Grave Yang], a third-level evil, this skill will take away the body temperature of the chimera anytime and anywhere, and accelerate the loss of source power, so he wears the 'living tool' cape that can drive ghosts at any time, and the anger brought by those undead It just neutralized the curse of [Fen Yang]."

Mariana spoke very fast, and confronted Osgar in front of the reformatory. She thought for a while, and added, "He seems to have a respiratory disease or a slight cleanliness. I can't confirm whether it is a curse."

"Can you beat him?" Cloris asked worriedly.

"I could try, but it's hard to kill him," Mariana replied.

She and Osgar have similar supernatural characteristics, and their strengths are equal. If they fight alone, even if they are fully prepared, it will be difficult to completely defeat the other party.

"Show confidence, Ms. Mariana, I really want to make you the main color on my shawl." Osgar smiled modestly.

Even though she knew that the other party was from the Church of the Sun, Cloris felt a bone-chilling chill from that smile.

Can such a person really represent the sun?And is the sun they describe a star hanging high outside the world, or is it a spiritual and emotional imagery?Although the girl didn't like Marianna, she had to admit that this French woman was countless times more decent than the guy in front of her.

Osgar raised his right hand by his side, including his secretary, three guys with dangerous temperament stood out, one of them was covered with iron chains, with more than a dozen iron hooks passing through his ribs, his lips and The eyelids are stitched shut, the door of the chest is in flames, and a great sun rises on the flames.

"You bastards who like to purify heresies and cut sins the most, when did you start to drive disciples of the void?" Mariana drew a revolver from her waist, ready to go.

"My lord is merciful and will give every believer a chance to be reborn from the ashes. As long as he passes the test and his spirit veins accept the shape of Lie Yang, he will become the most devout believer of our lord."

Osgar stretched out his hand and pushed forward, and the extraordinary person he called the convert immediately rushed towards Mariana.

The stitches on his lips were cracked, and he opened his toothless, tarry mouth, spitting out rotting black and green flames at Mariana.

"The symbol of the spirit vein will in turn affect the characteristics of the accompanying skill. We didn't pull out his teeth. It is a surprise to be able to produce such an effect. Do you know how we did it?"

While the light curtain summoned by Marianne was eroded by the black and green flames, Osgar's voice rang leisurely: "His heart has been transformed by companion skills, it is a wriggling creature, so let's take it out first." The [Dawn] spiritual vein on the spine of a Dawn Cultist was forcibly re-embedded with the heart. However, this caused a huge rejection reaction, causing his [Trifin Shark]'s skin and teeth to start falling off. Fortunately, he walked The earth teaches the ways of druids, and it is also embedded with the regeneration ability of [Wide Cave Worm]... This is one of the few advantages of Remnant of the Void, they are like a big trash can, they can always stuff all kinds of things... Geller , I said where?"

"Rejection." The secretary said beside him.

Mariana not only had to focus on dealing with the attack of the Void disciples in front of her, but also had another Transcendent who believed in Lie Yang interfering. Besides, that lunatic named Osgar was chatting cruelly with his secretary. They made a move, and Mariana thought to herself that they were not strong enough to fight four against one.

"Oh, in order to balance Shuguang's rejection reaction, we injected the [Sleeping Blood] of a Twilight Betrayer, which exactly neutralized the damage [Dawn] did to his body, not only enhanced his resistance to flames and light Resistance, based on his own corruption characteristics, made the original accompanying skill transform into this kind of corrosive flame... This is very unsightly, are you right, Geller?"

The secretary knew how to cater to his lord, and echoed: "Yes, my lord, this is very unsightly."

Osgar nodded, then shook his head again, quite regretfully:

"Then after capturing Mariana, burn him."

38. Trap

"Then after capturing Mariana, burn him."

It was difficult for Cloris to understand the brain circuit of this kind of person, and she couldn't tell whether what he was telling was the truth or a joking lie. No matter which one, Osgar gave her a chilling and crazy temperament.

As if echoing his words, the Void Disciple who lost his mind recklessly rushed towards Mariana, feeding the gun barrel into his throat——

Swish!

The skull of the disciple of the void burned a big hole, and a beam of flame penetrated from the sky spirit, piercing the dust haze of the low clouds.

Amazing.

This was Cloris's first thought.

But at the same moment, Cloris had strong doubts.

The signs of death are too obvious, if the extraordinary power is properly used to deal with it, the void disciple will definitely be able to persist in Mariana's hands for a long time.

This reminded the girl of the thousand-handed vine, a creature that likes to hide in the dark soil, stretching out bush-like tentacles to lure chocobos to look for food.

Mariana was like the bird that bit the hook.

Cloris made a decision in an instant. She raised her left palm, and four Void Touches gushed out from the ring of her thumb. The tentacles immediately hooked Marianna's body from her armpits, and the Void Disciple exploded her head. Before bursting out with crackling red light, he dragged the woman back to the door of the correctional facility.

"You colluded with disciples of the Void!" Osgar's eyes glowed with joy, and he looked at Cloris, "Thanks to Lie Yang, it's a young girl, the aura of the Void is very pure, is it a newcomer... Hey, petite Ma'am, can you obey me a little bit? Such a pure void, we will surely play for a long time, I will teach you to love the sun, so please go to the scorching sun with me-" He made his smile more Gentle, "If you hurt yourself because of stupidity and affect the effect of spiritual vein transformation, I will be very distressed."

A little over two seconds...

Cloris ignored Osgar's words. She roughly estimated how long the Touch of the Void could last under the strengthening of the Ring of the Void. During this time, the girl has been practicing, and she has made great progress compared to the time when she destroyed the bookshelf. .

Numerous tiny red dots spewed out from the exploded brain of the Void Disciple. If you zoom in, you can see dense feet growing on those small dots.

"The skill that the sun worm can attach to him..." Mariana said fearfully, "He is using the sun worm to control the void disciple. It is a skill of the Church of the Sun that involves soul and faith, [Fraud Inspiration]."

If Cloris hadn't rescued her in time, she might have been invaded by sun bugs.

Although, with the help of similar characteristics and [Dawn] spiritual veins, [Installation of Frenzy] had little effect on her, but also because of the similar characteristics, it was difficult for Mariana to get rid of these bugs from her body by herself.
