Chapter 260 (1/2)

”What's the next plan?”

The attic was so quiet that it could only hear the ”creak” of boards. The people who had just broken through the street and arrived at the ”temporary stronghold” were busy with their work - Edward and Leia, squatting by the window and watching intently, pale and sweating, but still struggling to string the bow and trim the arrows

And Vera, the boring night watchman squatting in the corner, had to look at the black haired wizard who was playing with something. It seemed that she was also very boring: ”don't we still have to find the nine pointed star Holy Grail?”

”Yes, and now we have completed the first step - to find a temporary stronghold that is hidden enough to observe the surrounding.” the perfunctory black haired wizard replied casually: ”the location here is very safe, and we can monitor half of the civilian area in the south of the city. So far, everything has been going well.”

”Oh, what's next?”

”No more.”

Alas?!

”There is a prerequisite for the emergence of the nine pointed star Holy Grail. Before it appeared, all we did was futile.” Loren slightly closed his eyes and focused all his attention on the ”caster” in his left hand: ”because of this, there is nothing easy to do except waiting.”

”In that case, isn't it the same where you wait?” Vera retorted, ”why do you have to break in?”

”That's because although we know it will appear, no one knows exactly when and where.” the person who explained this time was Edward: ”if we can't find it at the first time, it's meaningless.”

”The first time?” the night watchwoman's expression was more confused: ”is there anyone else who wants to rob the nine awn star Holy Grail besides us?”

”... exactly.”

Edward, who answered slowly, turned his head, but stared at Loren Turin with deep eyes and said: ”there are many people who want to get the nine pointed star Holy Grail.”

Edward didn't know that Loren Turin didn't intend to fulfill the agreement with the night watchman and the corona family to find the nine pointed star Holy Grail for them, but was ready to rob the corona family and take it!

This work has gone far beyond his duty as a night watchman. It seems very unwise to help either party.

But he still chose to stand on the side of Loren Turin - Edward was more inclined to help their black haired wizard than corona, an ambitious and unstable ally.

There was only one thing that made Edward always feel a trace of doubt: according to what Peter FASA told him, the reason why the corona family wanted to rob the nine pointed star Holy Grail and finally persuaded the wizard tower to rely on everything was because they got the help of an evil god!

The nine pointed star Holy Grail belongs to the creation of the last era, which is similar to the existence of ancient evil gods. Therefore, only evil gods can find and find its specific location.

If Loren Turin is not ready to fulfill the agreement, how can he find out in front of the corona family and get the nine pointed star Holy Grail?

There is another question. Why on earth did he make up his mind to break with the corona family with the help of evil gods, but he was not ready to join the Holy Cross Church?

Staring at the black haired wizard who closed his eyes and meditated, Edward left a cold sweat on his forehead... He felt as if he had guessed the truth, but he couldn't be completely sure.

There was silence in the attic. The boring Vera squatted in the corner, and the little wizard whose hands were still shaking was still gritting his teeth and insisting. The too calm atmosphere made Edward want to speak:

”Luo...”

”Someone is coming!”

The nervous voice broke the silence. Leia, the war dancer lying by the window, had clenched her spear and stared at the street outside the attic.

Almost at the same time, Vera and Ayn got up from the ground. Loren, who closed his eyes and meditated, slowly got up and waved to the Female Elf to calm down.

Edward, who originally wanted to ask, had to give up temporarily, pulled out the stabbing sword at his waist, lowered his body and prepared for the raid.

”Be quiet and don't move.”

Loren, who was surrounded in the center, squatted down slowly and his eyes twinkled: ”how many people are there?”
