Noble Emblem

Nadette's eyes narrowed when he saw this beautiful girl.

Paladins...as a very special 'unit' in the Temple of Light, they have a lot of power. It is their basic right to excommunicate believers below the rank of archbishop. They even have the arbitrary power to judge heretics, summon believers, launch regional wars, and other very exaggerated rights.

It can be said that they are essentially 'pseudo' popes or 'pseudo' saints who are very capable of fighting and whose power has been slightly reduced.

Looking at the gorgeous silver armor and the other person's pretty face that seemed to emit a faint light, Nadette immediately believed that the other person was indeed a paladin.

The cavalry that formed the encirclement obviously began to provide support. As French people, they knew very well what the appearance of the paladin meant. This is already a war within the agents of the gods, and ordinary people like them had better not get involved.

"Can you allow me to defend myself?"

Facing Ronald, the heretic arbiter, Nadette dared to threaten to kill him. But facing this petite, but beautiful and lovely girl in front of her, Nadette couldn't resist at all.

Everyone knows that the most loyal to the goddess of light is not the pope or the saint, but the paladins. They are also the strongest in the entire Temple of Light. Even the Pope can never defeat the weakest of the Paladins.

Every paladin has truly heard the voice of the goddess and received the goddess's blessing before becoming a paladin. The goddess looks at them more than the pope or the saint.

The girl was carrying a white flowing unsheathed sword on her back. She nodded and said, "You are allowed to defend yourself. This is your basic right."

Nadette calmed down and said slowly: "Dear Holy Warrior, according to Ronald's confession, those female church members were all killed by very cruel means. This must be related to men, and my daughter It’s a girl, and it’s a joke to put their death on Lux. Your Majesty, Paladin, this is not something difficult to judge.”

The young paladin shook her head slightly: "It is true that your daughter Lux did not do the death herself, but she was the mastermind behind the scenes! For every female church member who died, your daughter sent people to catch them. Then they were sent to a place where they were humiliated by men, and then their bodies were killed and thrown into the river.”

Nadette's face turned pale: "This is impossible."

The paladin girl stretched out her jade finger and tapped it gently in front of her, and a ball of light was produced out of thin air.

"This is the power of power. I can swear in the name of the goddess that there is nothing false in what I just said."

Nadette took two steps back. If his face was a little pale just now, there was no color at all now.

Even using the power word spell is enough to show that the paladin has investigated the matter thoroughly. Nadette didn't expect that her daughter would actually do such a thing under her nose... Is it because she was usually too arrogant?

Now that it was too late to regret, Nadette subconsciously held the weapon in his hand and asked: "I am excommunicated, so what is Lux's sentence?"

"The lives of six female church members are gone. One of them was a talent trained as a bishop of a certain church, and she died so tragically. She must die." The paladin girl spoke softly, but she had a certain There was a hint of doubt in it: "You don't want to go find her anymore. After a while, I will send someone to send her ashes back to you."

"you dare!"

As soon as he heard that the paladin girl was going to kill his daughter, Nadette became anxious and shouted to the surrounding cavalry: "Surround them. If they dare to leave, shoot them without mercy."

However... only half of the cavalry moved forward.

France is the headquarters of the Light God Religion. Although the Light God Religion rarely interferes in politics, their influence is everywhere. Even Nadette himself is a believer in the Goddess of Light. Not to mention ordinary soldiers, or civilians.

They knew exactly what the word paladin meant.

In fact, half of the soldiers were willing to come out, which made Nadette quite popular.

"Back off."

The girl gave a soft drink, and the surrounding cavalry immediately fell on their backs.

To deal with the paladin, it is useless to just rely on a large number of people. They have a dragon-like ability that can suppress weak enemies. There must be strong enough professionals standing in the vanguard to block the mental suppression of the paladin. Otherwise, no matter how many people there are, The army has no way to get close to them.

However, the most powerful thing about the Paladins is not this kind of suppression ability, but their well-balanced combat ability. They wear heavy armor, so they will not be affected by the weight of the armor. Their weapons are attached with light power, even if ordinary weapons are in their hands, they will not be affected by the weight of the armor. They will all turn into powerful magic weapons. They have melee expertise, long-range attack light magic, light shields, and various light gain spells.

As the strongest BUG profession, the Paladin has no weaknesses.

If you want to deal with the paladin, you must rely on a large number of elites to jointly suppress them, or their strength reaches the level of crushing the paladin.

The four priests immediately ran to the paladin girl and protected her.

Several hundred cavalry are more than enough to deal with four heretic arbiters, but with the addition of a paladin, the situation is completely reversed. The paladin has its own aura of bravery and intimidation ability. With four professionals, she can directly defeat them. The cavalry encirclement penetrated effortlessly.

At this time, it is unwise to fight head-on. If Arnold, Heidi, and Cook come back, with more than ten strong men, and hundreds of cavalry, it will not be difficult to kill the paladin, but there is a problem Yes, they are not in Echo City now.

The other party also saw this and planned this conspiracy, and then even the paladin was used.

"If I want to apply for a roll of atonement for Lux, what price do I need to pay."

The paladin frowned and said nothing. The Atonement Scroll is a thing created by the previous pope. The right to issue this thing is in the hands of the saints. Even death sins can be forgiven, of course, the price is very high.

"Pledge your allegiance to the Holy Lady and change your soul and your mind."

Ronald said before the paladin girl could stand.

Nadette was silent for a while, with a hint of helplessness in her voice: "Can you let me think about it for a few days? This is not a trivial matter."

Although they are all members of the Temple of Light, if they turn to the Saintess line, they will completely deny their former selves. It is difficult for ordinary people to completely deny their former selves, let alone these believers with firm beliefs.

Ronald sneered from the side and said: "Don't think that I don't know what you are planning. You just want to wait for Arnold and the others to come back. Indeed, if they come back, plus your thousands or even tens of thousands of troops, even if If two or three paladins come over, it won't be much of a threat to you, but we are not that stupid. You only have one hour to think about it."

"I am judging him now, not you. Arbitrator Ronald." The paladin girl's eyes were cold and expressionless: "Please remain silent."

Ronald shrugged lightly.

"You give up the position of City Lord, and from now on Lux becomes a commoner. As for the successor of City Lord, it is up to you to choose, except for your blood relatives, anyone can be, even a beggar." The paladin girl looked at Na Dete said slowly: "I personally don't like the scroll of atonement very much, but I believe that without the identity of the city lord's daughter, your daughter will not dare to do such terrible things from now on."

Nadette breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I will think about it carefully, and please be kind to Lux."

No one accepted Deit's words, but he didn't take it seriously. At least, he bought himself two days.

Returning to the city lord's palace, Nadette summoned Assh and said, "You quietly find a soldier who looks very ordinary and is not a professional, and ask him to secretly leave the city and go to Ellen City to find Arnold and the others."

Ash nodded and was about to leave when Nadette suddenly asked: "By the way, where is Judd?"

Ash shook his head and said he didn't know.

Nadette's face paused slightly, then waved his hand to let Assh leave.

When Beta and Heidi returned to Echo City, it was afternoon. He found that the atmosphere here was a bit strange, so he grabbed Heidi and dragged her aside instead of letting her enter the city.

Some dyes and sleeping props were brought out from the mansion's art space throughout the year. Beta transformed himself into a bearded man, while Heidi became a plain-looking peasant woman.

When the two of them passed the entrance, they found that the entrance to the city was heavily guarded, and no one was allowed in or out. The atmosphere looked extremely heavy.

After casually looking at the two of them, they found that they seemed to have nothing worth saving, so the guard guarding them let them into the city.

After the two entered the city, they did not return directly to the city lord's palace. Instead, they went to find a poor hotel to stay. Then Beta and Heidi separated and went to the streets to collect intelligence.

In the evening, the two met at the hotel.

Heidi narrowed his eyes: "I didn't expect that so many things happened after we left. Even the paladin came."

Beta sat on the chair, thought for a while, and said: "Heidi, do you have any friends who are familiar and trustworthy? Let them help us find where Lux is hidden. If we find her, Nadette won't need to So passive."

Heidi thought for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile: "No, the friends I know who are somewhat capable are people in our team."

"Then do you have a detailed layout map of Echo City?"

Heidi also shook his head.

"Then we can only keep looking and try our luck."

Heidi also sighed, then she ate something casually and left the hotel.

Beta could see that Heidi was not that interested in finding Lux.

The same goes for Beta. Now it has been spread throughout the city. What exactly did Lux ​​do to get the paladin to come to her door?

For such a vicious woman, if there is a 'problem', Beta will happily express in her heart that this is something she is happy to hear.
