Night Ranger

There was chaos on the edge of the square.

The sudden darkness enveloped everything, and when all the dust settled, a burst of screams came from the mouths of the nearby people!

Aragorn and the Temple Knights stared blankly at that scene!

Dai Na's head fell to the ground, her eyes were wide open, and she did not rest in peace.

And Ronan, the waiter beside her, was also beheaded!

Such an event has never happened in White Elephant City—or even the Pusen plane.

That's a senior priest.

Just so inexplicably, killed in full view?

As for the murderer, there was no trace of him exposed!

This made the priests of the temple and the paladins somewhat unacceptable.

The paladins rushed towards this direction recklessly, and their horses even stepped on many innocent people!

And taking advantage of this opportunity, the twelve knights under the prince's command finally broke through the siege and escaped from White Elephant City.

The entire square was completely in chaos.

And Marvin, under the cover of the eternal night, retreated quietly.

Wearing Erickson's brooch, even if those paladins frequently release the [Eye of True Knowledge], it will not help!

His stealth level is too high!

Let him save people and then leave calmly, he can't do it - after all, the only one who can do it is probably a legend like Ibrahimovic.

But letting him kill a priest is not a big problem!

No matter how powerful Dana is, she is only a magician of around level 15. And without any defense!

Super Stealth + Eternal Night. Simply the perfect fit.

"A priest died, this time, the Shadow Temple can't sit still?"

"The next few days. I'm afraid the eyes of the temple will immediately focus on White Elephant City."

Ma Wen sneered in his heart, his goal had been achieved, and he quietly disappeared into the crowd.

...

In the heavenly kingdom of God, the Shadow Prince narrowed his eyes slightly.

Since Marvin entered this world, he has been paying attention to the Pusen plane.

He could clearly feel the death of the purple-robed priest.

These senior priests have established a two-way communication channel with the shadow prince.

The priests continuously provided him with the power of faith with their devout faith.

A senior priest. Often more than the power of faith provided by ten devout believers.

Between the gods and the believers, it is like a thread of silk hanging. Some threads are thicker. Some are more slender.

Some of them are even as if they were nothing—that kind is just a stilt with less firm beliefs.

As a god, the Prince of Shadow loves fanatics who can provide him with more power of faith; but fanatics' way of doing things is too simple and rude, which is not suitable for managing other believers. The kind of pious, intelligent senior priest. It is the existence that can bring him more benefits.

So for these believers, he will bestow divine spells and powers, and occasionally respond.

The moment Marvin killed Dana, the Prince of Shadows sensed that a thick thread was broken.

He followed that line of perception, his mind soaring above the plane of Purson.

In an instant, his gaze was focused on that towering city!

"White Elephant City..."

"hehe……"

The shadow prince closed his eyes, and began to actively contact his most powerful spokesperson in the Pusen plane!

...

Late at night, in the dungeon of White Elephant City.

Aragorn in prison uniform crossed his legs silently. Sitting on the darkened floor.

The candle flame flickered in the distance, it was the knight of the temple, guarding it strictly.

what happened during the day. Shocking the entire White Elephant City, another mid-level priest from the temple temporarily came out to preside over the overall situation and contacted the headquarters of the Great Shadow Temple.

It is said that more than two senior priests will come to White Elephant City soon.

His Highness the High Priest attaches great importance to this vicious incident. It is said that if the murderer who assassinated Priest Dana is not found, half of the people in White Elephant City will be sacrificed!

All this news was told to him by the previous jailer. It's a pity that these jailers didn't stay for long, and they were all replaced by paladins from the temple to guard them by the mid-level priest.

"Actually, they don't have to."

Aragorn sat there with some self-mockery.

If he wants to escape. How could these people trap him?

Even if he is holding the temple's [Bracelet of Imprisonment] on his hand.

As a level 18 storm swordsman, it is not easy to escape from prison. Especially under the premise that there is no senior priest sitting in charge.

However, he doesn't want to.

He recalled many years, when he was young, he once asked his father a question:

What exactly is a temple?

At that time, Nottingham XIII was in his prime of life, ambitious, and prepared to carry out a series of measures to weaken the power of the temple.

At that time, he replied: "The temple is a cancer."

"Soon, he will be eradicated."

The young prince nodded ignorantly. A few months later, he heard the news of the rebellion of the three northern lords.

At that time, he thought it was incredible that the three northern lords were all his father's brothers, how could they rebel?

Then there was the defeat of the Wang*team.

In the end, the temple was forced to take action in person, and the rebels were dealt with.

It's just that when the victory report of the three northern lords died and escaped in the final battle came, he saw Nottingham XIII staggering and falling to the ground with his own eyes.

He seemed to be ten years older in an instant.

Aragorn suddenly understood something.

The temple is a cancer.

Someone will always try to eradicate him, but the price of failure cannot be afforded by the royal family of Nottingham.

But someone has to sacrifice, someone has to try.

...

Thirty years later today.

Nottingham XIII, who once said that he would eradicate the cancer with his own hands, is completely old.

He lost the courage to fight against the temple. He even started to really persecute Aragorn and wipe out these "rebels".

Now, in order to please the temple, he is not even going to let his own son go.

Aragorn was ashamed.

He could feel that this was a dying world, and everyone was insensitive.

They are kept in captivity like cattle and sheep. They don't want to look up, and they don't want to try hard.

Because the temple said, no.

God said, no.

"Fuck the *fucking* god!"

In the dark dungeon, the handsome prince finally uttered the first foul language in his life.

It's a pity that no one could hear him except a mouse crawling by.

Tomorrow he should be sent to the royal capital, and the result of the trial is no longer necessary, life imprisonment is the lightest.

"Really, do you just give up like this?"

He is not reconciled.

At this moment, a faint voice sounded from the darkness:

"Your Highness Aragorn, are you really going to give up just like that?"

Aragorn was taken aback!

He could see the guarding knights not far away, but he couldn't see the source of the sound so close.

"It's you!" He lowered his voice, a look of horror flashed in his eyes.

The one who killed Dana during the day!

It is definitely him, only such a strong person can easily enter and exit the dungeon!

"I have a plan that can help you eradicate the temple. We have a common enemy."

"But I need your help too."

"Tell me, in the royal capital, who is your closest and most trustworthy person?"

Marvin's voice slowly rang in his ears.
