Chapter 621 (1/2)
The raging fire was gradually extinguished in the dark night... Except for an additional piece of ruins, it returned to silence at midnight.
On the way to the wizard Association, the oath knight and McAfee who followed him were very silent; He deliberately kept a distance behind the black haired wizard. He didn't ask for anything and didn't say a word.
The grey pupil boy beside him always wanted to speak, but he was interrupted by Loren... After all, some things are more appropriate not to say.
The temporary cooperation can not cover up the gap between the two people, and the relationship between the two sides is not good enough to be absolutely trusted... And I'm afraid the oath knight who saw the ”truth” with his own eyes will only have more hatred and disgust for wizards.
At midnight, the streets of chixuebao seemed as quiet as before. There was no figure of half a carriage and pedestrians. The doors and windows on both sides were closed and serene like an exquisite oil painting.
But if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find the occasional blood stains under your feet, the bodies hidden in the shadows and corners, the weapons falling to the ground, the shivering peeping eyes behind the dark windows
In the quiet and serene red blood castle, the atmosphere suddenly became dignified and depressed.
But fortunately, the soldiers and Knights of the patrol guard and swept away the thieves and all suspicious characters on the street. None of the members of the blood cult survived the explosion... Finally, there was no accident on the way back for the black haired wizard and his party.
Finally... The towering tower appeared directly in front of the line of sight, and the patrolling knights could be seen around the brightly lit fence, which finally relieved Loren.
”This is it, wizard Association.” the stopped black haired wizard looked back and looked at the oath Knight behind him: ”the count of red blood castle and her knights are inside. Let's have a rest here first, and then...”
”No, it's better for us to separate temporarily.”
The oath Knight said coldly, completely ignoring McAfee who had just breathed a sigh of relief and immediately stared at him like a Madman: ”tonight is still a long night, and it's not time to rest.”
You madman don't need to rest. I just fought with a group of crazy believers and was almost buried alive. Hey!
”The most important thing is, I don't want to have anything to do with your conspiracy.” the oath Knight's voice remained calm: ”you'd better not make such a plan.”
”I never expect this,” Lauren shrugged calmly. ”How can I tell you if something happens?”
”Outside Byrne Cathedral, I'll pray outside the church and send your people to inform me.” after that, the oath Knight turned away without looking back, accompanied by McAfee, carrying a long gun picked up from nowhere.
”Can we really trust him... No doubt, but after all, he used to be the guard of fascism.” the gray pupil boy on one side was still a little worried.
”If even he can't believe it, I'm afraid there will be no knight in the world who can fight for the Holy Cross.”
Lauren smiled and patted Lucian on the shoulder, but sighed softly: ”and... Just because he used to be the guard of fascism, he is the most eager person in the world to end the ambition of fascism.”
Looking at his expression, the grey pupil boy tilted his head thoughtfully.
When they walked into the tower, they found that the whole wizard association had been completely controlled by the court guard. Between the corridor and the stairs, guard patrols and fully armed knights could be seen everywhere; All wizards and apprentices were ordered not to leave in their dormitories or to wait for orders in their respective laboratories.
The anxious red blood Castle housekeeper stood outside the president's room and paced back and forth in the staircase with his hands on his back; The first time I saw the black haired wizard coming, I opened the door, dragged him in and broke in.
Charlotte Turin, who looked solemn, sat on the armchair facing the room. The silver breastplate and helmet, which were exquisite enough to be called works of art, made the originally dignified Countess a little more murderous; A slightly smaller two handed sword leaned in front of him, and the blade with diamond pattern reflected the cold light under the moonlight.
The little wizard also put on his armor and bow when he was in eboden and stood on her side. When he saw the intact black haired wizard and Lucian coming in, his worried blue eyes obviously flashed a surprise, but he could still detect the tension and uneasiness in her expression.
In the depressed room, even Ariel corona and Asriel standing beside her couldn't see a smile, and a little dignity and fear occasionally appeared in the scarlet pupils.
So far, the ”black cross” serliol is almost the only enemy who can make Asriel feel fear and even have the idea of running away. He will be so close to the great enemy that he won't let the black haired wizard feel much unexpected.
”... this is generally the case. We have eliminated most of the members of the blood church, but there must be their residual forces in the city; they must be cleared as soon as possible before the end of tonight!”
”Can't you let them go for a while?” Charlotte frowned slightly: ”at present, Gaspar's whereabouts are unknown, and there are many nobles of red blood Castle who participate in the church. If you force them against...”
