There was a rapid sound of horse hoofbeats, and a group of two hundred knights rushed towards the manor. The people sitting on the horses were all wearing white light helmets and light armor, with a big sword on their backs. There is a mark printed on their armor, which is an inverted triangle mark, and this mark is actually the mark of the Mother Goddess Church, which also means that they are members of the Mother Goddess Church, and they are also temple knights of the Mother Goddess Church. .

The Church of the Mother Goddess has two armed forces on the surface. One is the Temple Knights. Their main responsibility is to protect the Church of the Mother Goddess and fight against all cultists. The other force is the ascetic monks. The ascetic monks specialize in Responsible for tasks such as intelligence, investigation, and pursuit, and mainly targets cultists.

It can be said that the power of the Mother Goddess Church is still very great. They have the power to search any place suspected of having cultists. This is their power, and it is the power that all the Grand Dukes acquiesce to. In fact, the power of the Mother Goddess Church is now more than It has become much smaller than before. Because of the rise of the Merchant Alliance and the fact that the Grand Dukes have become more powerful, the power of the Mother Goddess Church has also been compressed. In the past, the Mother Goddess Church even had the power to execute people. For those they consider to be cultists, it can be said that at that time, the power of the Mother Goddess Church was beyond your imagination. The entire steel world was shrouded in the shadow of the Mother Goddess Church, and the emergence of the Merchant Alliance has been It is considered by people to be a counterattack by the great princes in the steel world against the Church of the Mother Goddess.

Although these temple knights are knights, they are actually different from the guardian knights. They are all rune swordsmen. The armor on their bodies and the weapons they use are all different from the guardian knights. They say they are knights, but they are actually rune swordsmen. It is precisely because of such a power that the Mother Goddess Church still has huge power in the steel world.

This temple knight had already arrived at the door of the manor, but the place where they appeared was the outer garden of the manor, but they did not stop, because the gate of the outer garden of the manor was open, and they entered directly into the manor, and then came to the manor. In front of the gate of the inner garden, he stopped his horse. Then the leading temple knight took a look at the inner garden of the manor and the gate of the inner garden of the manor. His eyes flashed with a cold light, but he still said loudly: "There are people inside, listen. We are the Church of the Mother Goddess and the Knights of the Temple. Someone reported that a cultist was found in the manor. Please open the door immediately. We want to go in and search." When he said this, he had already rushed to his side. The other knights made a gesture, and those knights all nodded, and then their hands were already on the hilts of the swords behind them.

The temple knight is obviously ready to attack. If the people in the manor don't open the door to them, they will attack immediately. They will first open the door of the manor, and then rush directly into the manor. As long as evidence is found, no one dares to say anything.

Moreover, these temple knights have long disliked the people of the Merchant Alliance. They know that the people of the Merchant Alliance have been working against them, so they have no good impression of the Merchant Alliance at all. If there is a chance, they can teach the Merchant Alliance a lesson. People, they will never let go.

But at this moment, the door of the inner manor opened suddenly, which made all the temple knights stunned. Then they saw a man dressed as a butler, standing at the gate of the manor. He saluted these temple knights and said: "Dear temple knights, hello, I am the steward of Mr. Carl Wet, my name is Will, this is Mr. Carl Wet's manor, here in our manor, yesterday We were attacked by a group of cultists at night. We still had some guards in our manor, so we didn't let those cultists succeed. We were preparing to report to the Mother Goddess Church immediately after dawn, but we didn't expect that you would come first. Come on, this is really great, hurry up, please come inside."

Will's words didn't sound wrong at all, but his words made all the temple knights change their faces. They really didn't expect that Will would say this. To be honest, they felt that Will's words It's a bit shameless. They are sure that Will must know who attacked them last night, but at this time, they still dare to say this. This is really shameless. This is not about the people of their Mother God Church. Is he a cultist?

But they had to endure this tone, because they had no way to refute Will's words. Could it be that they told Will that the ones who attacked you last night were not cultists, but people from the Mother Goddess Church? If they said that, then Will would immediately say, if they were really from the Mother Goddess Church, why were they wearing black clothes and covering their faces? Then they had no way to answer, so although they looked ugly, they didn't say anything.

Moreover, there was a thorn in Wile's words. We were preparing to report to the Mother Goddess Church after dawn, but you came first. Didn't this make it clear to them that I know who the person was last night? Stop pretending, and I'm ready and waiting for you to come.

It is precisely because of this that the faces of these temple knights are very ugly. The leading temple knight glanced at Will, and then snorted coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, we have to enter the manor to conduct a search, and we cannot let the evil spirits The cultist ran away." After saying that, they ignored Will and rushed towards the manor.

But as soon as they entered the manor, they had to stop, because in front of them stood a small group of cavalry. Although the number was small, everyone was wearing cavalry armor and holding long lances in their hands. , stood there quietly one by one, as if they were sculptures, but the eyes behind the visor looked at these temple knights coldly.

Next to this small group of cavalry, there is also a small group of heavy armored infantry. This group of heavy armored infantry also stood there in formation, looking coldly at the temple cavalry, these Shenzhan cavalry people, looking at them Their expressions couldn't help but change slightly, and they were almost about to pull out the long swords from their backs.

At this time Will said: "Okay, you all retreat, the Temple Knights are here, I believe our safety is guaranteed." When the cavalry and heavy armored infantry heard what Will said, they Then he retreated, but at this time, Will looked at the temple knights with a half-smile, and then said: "Everyone, am I right? The temple knights have the right to track down cultists, but they never do. They will kill innocent people indiscriminately, everyone, please go ahead.”

When the temple knights heard what Will said, their expressions changed. They knew that Will was trying to beat them, and that was why their faces were so ugly. They learned from Will's words. It can be heard that Will has long known that they are coming, and has been prepared and waiting for them to come. In this case, there is absolutely no way for them to find any evidence in this manor. possible.

But it was absolutely impossible for them to retreat in despair now, so they all stood there with pale faces. Then the leading temple knight waved his hand and said loudly: "Let's go and search." Other temples The knights all responded and then walked straight to the manor.

Will looked at these temple knights and narrowed his eyes slightly. In the narrowed eyes, there was also a cold light. He really didn't expect that the people of the Mother Goddess Church were so bold. They also dared to live in Carl's manor. Come in as soon as you say it. It seems that the people in the Mother Goddess Church really think that the people in the Merchant Alliance are soft persimmons, otherwise they would not dare to be so unscrupulous.

The temple knights searched around the manor, but found nothing. They even looked inside the building and checked the first room, but found nothing. This made those temple knights search. The knight's face was very ugly. At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.

The Temple Knights who were in the building immediately ran out of the building and ran in the direction of the noise. When they got there, they discovered that it was the Temple Knights who were talking to people in the manor in the backyard. There was a confrontation in front of the door. The people in the manor did not let the Temple Knights enter that room, but the Temple Knights insisted on entering that room, so the two sides faced off there.

Upon seeing this situation, the leading temple knight couldn't help but his eyes lit up. They had found nothing so far, no black mage, no fallen rune swordsman, no assassin, only guardian knights, heavy armored infantry, and rune swords. There are also some soldiers with steam guns, and it is not surprising that there are these people in the manor. In the entire steel world, the merchant alliance has the power to have such armed forces, and they also need to protect the safety of their property.

In fact, the most wanted target of these temple knights is Zhao Hai and the others. They want to find Zhao Hai and the others, and then forcibly bring Zhao Hai and the others back to the Mother Goddess Church, but unfortunately, they did not find Zhao Hai and the others. Hai and the others, how can they be happy about this? They originally did not expect to find the black mage and the fallen rune swordsman. He believed that the people in the manor would definitely hide those people. They just wanted to find Zhao Hai and the others. , because they believed that the people in the manor would not hide Zhao Hai and the others. After all, Zhao Hai and the others had not committed any crime and there was no need to hide. Therefore, their real target was Zhao Hai and the others, but they did not expect that, They didn't even find Zhao Hai and the others. If they really didn't find anyone or any evidence in this manor, it would be hard for them to explain. After all, the Business Alliance is not that easy to mess with.

It is precisely because of this that the leading temple knight immediately became happy when he saw the people in the manor guarding the room. He immediately walked in front of the temple knight, looked at the people guarding the room and said: "Immediately Get out of the way, we are going to search for the cultists, if you don’t get out of the way, don’t blame us for being rude.”

At this time, Will's voice came from behind him: "My Lord Knight, it's not that we don't let you in, but that this room only contains some pressurized cabins and some steam engines, and it's us. If you go in and break one or two of the newly developed pressurized cabins, that would be bad. If there is any damage, who will be responsible?"
