Noble Emblem

The secret sewer room on the outskirts of the city was filled with a disgusting smell. Even if the door was closed and even if cleaning magic was used, the disgusting smell seemed to still linger in everyone's nostrils.

But both the five heretic arbiters and the paladin girl acted very calmly.

In the corner of the room, Lacus was squatting there, huddled up. The left and right sides of her face were swollen... Although there was no injury on her body, her confidence and courage were shattered by two slaps before and after.

Now she knew very well that the group of people in front of her didn't even care about her father, and even wanted to kill her, let alone her, an ordinary woman who relied on the influence of her father's generation.

"Ronald, I don't mind if you involve me in your struggle, but I must remind you again that whether Lux is dead or alive, and the city lord Nadette's disposal is also decided by me. You can't interrupt. ”

Ronat smiled and said, "I'm just suggesting."

"You have gone too far. The arbiter of heresy can only deal with the outside world, not the inside." The paladin girl said lightly: "For the sake of the saint, I will not get involved with you this time, but if you get involved again, If you get into factional strife, I will excommunicate you."

For a faithful believer, excommunication is a terrible thing, almost as serious as being sentenced to death.

Ronald smiled and said, "Yes, I understand."

Everyone knows that there is no way to reason with the paladin, and generally the nine-headed dragon cannot change the things they believe.

"Just leave when you understand. I'll handle the rest alone."

Ronald frowned, then sighed softly: "Ms. Tina, you need protection. I know you are very powerful, but as the lord of the city, Nadette has thousands of elite soldiers, and if he sets up a mercenary If the Corps comes back, then you are in danger."

"Okay, but you have to promise that you will never express any opinions on Nadette and Lux." Tina thought for a while and agreed with the other party's statement. She is not the kind of person who is too arrogant and stubborn. People who can't listen to other people's opinions.

Ronald hesitated, then nodded.

Lux hid in the corner, occasionally raising her head and glancing at Tina, her eyes full of jealousy and resentment.

She thought that these little 'actions' of hers were well hidden, but the people present were all very powerful, and they could sense her general mood just from the weak fluctuations of her spirit.

I just couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her.

After separating from Heidi, Beta summoned Joan of Arc in a deserted alley.

As soon as the bird came out, it looked around, then flew up to the corner with a swish sound, with its wings guarding its chest, and shouted: "Master, what on earth do you want to do when you summon me out of a place like this?"

Beta's lips twitched: "You seem to be a little off lately."

"I'm afraid of being poisoned by you. Look at Judy. She's been tortured like that just because she has a pair of wings." Joan of Arc said with a frightened expression: "When one day I turn into a human form, you must You will treat me like this too, Master, I tell you, I don’t like your type, don’t try to make any plans to me.”

Beta waved his hands angrily: "Don't worry, I won't take action against you. Besides, you have to turn into a human form. Now go up to the sky and help me monitor Echo City, focusing on those white-robed priests. Also, A girl who looks like a paladin."

"Yes..." Joan of Arc suddenly remembered that she was still a bird, and she muttered: "I've been dreaming a lot lately, dreaming that I became a human being..."

Then it flew into the sky.

With the feeling of Joan of Arc, Beta felt that he had an extra level of confidence in controlling the situation in Echo City. Regardless of battle or war, if there was not such a one-sided power gap, then the status of information and intelligence would be quite important.

Beta himself put on ordinary clothes, pretended to be a believer, and went to the Temple of Light to monitor.

Although the Temple of Light in Echo City has essentially completely surrendered to the Pope's side, the status of the Holy Warrior is too transcendent. With the emergence of a trend that seems to be of the saint's lineage, it is difficult to guarantee that no one in the Temple of Light will change sides and quietly move The paladin is brought to the temple.

After all, the Temple of Light is very big and there are not many people there, so it is very easy to hide someone.

Late at night, Beta waited in the hotel room for Heidi to come back.

As soon as she came in, she saw the map on Beta's table. She walked over and took a look, her face lit up: "Did you buy the Huiyin Chou map?"

"This thing is a military controlled product. It cannot be owned by ordinary people or the forces in the city. It can be bought in a hurry. I drew it myself. I can observe it from a high altitude with water realm. It is easy to do." Beta pointed at He tapped lightly on the table and continued: "The city lord's men are also searching for them. When I came back just now, two groups of soldiers came to the hotel to check. So I don't think they can be in the city."

In fact, the Water Realm Technique cannot float that high at all. It is only about ten meters high. Many tall buildings are not that high. Therefore, it is impossible to survey the entire terrain of the huge Echo City in one afternoon. Only a magic pet like Joan of Arc can To be able to fly to such a height and overlook the whole city is something that even a wind magician cannot do.

Heidi came over, looked at the map, her eyes flashed, and she pointed to the outskirts of the city: "Here, here, and here... there is a large drainage channel space. There used to be a lot of 'rats' hiding in it. But it was later scanned by the city lord, and it should have been cleared out now, so they might be hiding in it. "

Beta thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go check it out."

"I'll go with you so I can take care of you." Heidi picked up his short bow.

"The smell in those places usually isn't very good. Are you sure you can stand it?"

The more beautiful you are, the more you care about these things. In the game, those female players would rather give up generous mission rewards than go into such a disgusting place.

"I've been in places that are much dirtier than that." Heidi smiled as if he had been there before, and then said, "I hope these people hide in there."

"Let's go explore the situation first and try not to have a head-on conflict with them." Beta thought for a moment and said, "If you encounter a paladin, run away immediately without any hesitation."

Heidi nodded. As a French citizen, she had grown up listening to rumors about paladins.

She knew very well how powerful these paladins were once they took action.

"By the way, take these things to defend yourself." Beta took out two scrolls from the mansion's magic space: "These are the scrolls I made more perfectly."

Heidi smiled half-heartedly: "Hidden it privately?"

Beta flatly denied: "No, I did it a long time ago."

"Don't worry, I won't say anything." Heidi walked over and hugged Beta gently: "After all, you helped me a lot and you know a lot of my secrets. If you really count, it's because I have the leverage in your hands." right."
