Noble Emblem

Stopped by several guards, Zoe started laughing so much that tears were about to flow down her face.

With a sneer in his heart, Beta turned around and asked: "Sir Lagu, what do you mean?"

"I told you that you have to stay here for a few more days."

Raghu's expression was no longer as kind as before, and became indifferent.

The status of a lord is essentially that of a small king. In their own territory, they are the masters and everything.

Although Raghu is not yet a lord on the surface, in fact, he already controls the entire city lord's mansion, and even his father has been ousted from his power.

It is not a big deal for Raghu to have an army, privileges, or his own initiative to forcibly place a minor noble of unknown origin under house arrest.

As for the identity of the person in front of him, Raghu really didn't care.

In a country, the king has the highest status, followed by the lords. Raghu had never heard of someone like Cook among the royal family. As for the lords... he had met most of all the lords of France, and a small number of them were not young people.

In other words, the young man in front of him, no matter how powerful he is, is just a second-generation lord.

Why should he care.

Continuing to wave his hands, several guards continued to approach.

These guards are all elites in the military, and each of them is around LV5.

Raghu knew very well that his younger brother was already a great swordsman, and ordinary professionals were no match for him, but if the numbers came up together, it wouldn't be a big problem.

As for the man named Cook, although he looks like a magician, he always has a frail aura.

It shouldn't be strong.

Because he didn't want to be affected, Raghu took two steps back. He was also a professional, but his strength was no longer as good as his younger brother Zoe.

After finding a safe place, he wanted to appreciate the struggle and unwillingness of his brother and that annoying guy.

Then he saw a scene that puzzled him.

"I have two, and the rest will be for you." Zoe said to Beta.

"Okay, no problem."

Lagu felt that these two people refused to admit defeat, and just when he was about to laugh, he saw his younger brother raising his hand with a silver lightning beam. The first guard was directly knocked away, and the long sword in his hand was released, and then was killed by Zoe. He rushed forward and grabbed it in his hand.

La Gu was shocked: Isn't he a great swordsman? How come you still have magic?

When a great swordsman has a sword, his abilities are completely different.

With a light leap, Zoe jumped in front of another guard.

As soon as the guard pulled out his sword, his head fell off his neck.

Zoe's fighting spirit aroused in her heart, she raised her sword and looked around, and then she became confused.

Because he found that all the other guards had fallen to the ground at this time.

Beta stood beside him with his hands behind his back.

"You are still awesome."

Before he had no gold coins to sacrifice and become a professional, he already knew that Beta was close to the master level.

Now that he has become an elite great swordsman, his opponent will definitely grow as well.

Compared to Beta and Zoe's relaxed expression, Raghu's expression was solemn at this time, and he was even a little frightened.

He knew that he had misjudged the strength of this 'Cook'.

Zoe turned around, holding the long sword dripping with blood, and looked at her elder brother.

La Gu took a few steps back. He wanted to call someone, but he was afraid of irritating his brother, who was already showing his fierce look.

Zoe looked at her eldest brother for a long time, and there was silence during the period.

After a while, Zoe snorted softly, turned around and left.

Beta also left.

Raghu stayed where he was, his fists clenched and his face contorted. He felt waves of humiliation, something he had never experienced in his more than twenty years of life.

His own life depends on whether his brother is irrational or not.

Outside the door, Beta asked him: "Why didn't you kill your brother just now? I felt that you had a strong murderous intention."

"Can't kill." Zoe smiled and said: "If I kill, I will become a wanted prisoner in France. The lords have a rule that descendants or small nobles cannot kill the lord to ascend to the throne, otherwise they will be punished by all the lords. The pursuit and hatred.”

"A way to maintain your own ruling class." Beta expressed understanding: "So even though your eldest brother has secretly obtained power, he doesn't dare to attack your father casually."

Um!

Zoe spoke, and when he left the City Lord's Mansion, he looked back at the City Lord's Mansion and smiled: "One day, I can replace him."

Beta scratched her ears, the words sounded familiar.

"What are your plans next?" Beta asked.

"I plan to build a temple here and gather all the believers." Zoe smiled: "Otherwise, I alone cannot be the opponent of the big... Lagu. If there is a temple, he will have to do things. Have some scruples.”

Beta nodded, this is indeed the most correct thing to do.

Regardless of whether the Temple of Wealth is famous or not, it represents the majesty and face of a god.

Nobles can ignore a religion, but they cannot send people to attack a temple for no reason. To do otherwise is to be an enemy of the gods, especially when this sect is still a non-evil camp.

Of course, temples generally cannot participate in political competitions casually.

Since it is stronger than the previous Light Sanctuary, it does not dare to stretch its hand too far toward the royal family.

Secular political power and divine power are currently in a rather delicate balance.

Zoe dared not break this balance, and was unable to bear the consequences.

Knowing that Zoe had his own ideas, Beta didn't want to interfere with his actions. After all, no one likes to dictate on their own territory alone.

After separating from Zoe, Beta returned to the hotel, and Judy stayed in the room, sorting out her clothes.

Seeing him back, she looked quite happy and flapped her wings slightly.

Beta sat next to her and said, "We may have to stay here for a while."

Judy nodded.

To her, it didn't matter whether Beta was there, she was happy as long as she could stay by his side.

Although Judy was said to be obedient, Beta thought it would be better to explain herself.

"Although Zoe is quite capable, his opponent is too strong. We will stay here for a while and protect him until things here get on the right track."

Judy smiled again, looking even happier.

Next, Beta will settle down in the hotel.

Food and accommodation are in the hotel, and occasionally we go out for a walk.

Judy was extremely satisfied with such a life, and she became more and more cheerful.

Sure enough, as Beta expected, Zoe ran into trouble ten days later.

The temple he was building collapsed, destroying its foundations.

Some craftsmen died mysteriously.

Zoe's face looked ugly at that time. He asked the believers to search for news, and then the next day, some rats in the dark streets were left dead on the city gate.

In addition, even the Sheriff died in his own home, reportedly from an overdose of alcohol.

With this as the boundary, the secret war between Zoe and Raghu officially kicked off.

In the next month, the two interacted with each other. Generally speaking, Zoe was at a disadvantage, but every time Raghu wanted to "check" him to death, a mysterious man would always appear and save Zoe.

And many times, Zoe found that there would occasionally be an extra piece of paper on her desk, with some attacks that would appear soon on it written on it.

The two fought for half a year. During this six months, many people and civilians died in the city.

Finally one day, Raghu sent someone to invite Zoe to the city lord's mansion for negotiations.

The two brothers faced each other, Zoe smiled with two points of victory, while Raghu showed nothing.

"We can't continue fighting like this. It's not good for both of us."

Raghu continued: "You also want to build the temple safely. I recognize your ability and that you are an important member of our Trako family."

"No need, I am no longer a member of the Traco family."

Raghu frowned. He thought the negotiation had broken down when he heard such heartless words.

"But I agree with you. We can't keep fighting."

Now Zoe also understands that the background of the Trako family is indeed more troublesome than he imagined. If the fight continues and more believers die, there will be no one available around him.

"We can sign a contract. In the future, there will be no malicious hostility between you and our family. How about that? On the other hand, we will not target you again."

After thinking for a while, Zoe agreed.

The magic contract was quickly placed on the table, and both parties pressed their fingerprints on it without saying a word.

After the contract turned into blue magic flame and disappeared, Zoe left without hesitation.

In his expectation, he wanted to hold the Terracoland in his hands. This goal was not accomplished, and he even reconciled with the other party, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

The same goes for Raghu.

Zoe used to be inferior to him in everything, but now not only is her personal strength stronger than him, but with the support of a small sect, she can actually have a back-and-forth with him and fight vigorously.

This made him, who always had an extremely superior feeling, very unhappy.

Another half month later, the Waking Temple was built. The divine light that acted as the goddess of wealth shone directly on the statue of the goddess, proving to everyone in Traco County that this was a real temple.

In addition to Lagu, everyone with some reputation in Traco County came to congratulate him.

They may not believe in the Cult of Wealth, but now that Zoe is also the number one person here, looking at his face, these people have to come over to express their gratitude.

Beta was also among the congratulators.

When Zoe saw him, she came up to him directly and said, “Thank you for taking care of me during this time.”

"How do you know it was me?"

"Who else besides you!" Zoe smiled bitterly: "Among so many people I know, you are the only one who has the ability to help me. Let's not mention the others."

Because a new temple was built and nearly 20,000 new believers were added, Zoe also made great contributions to the current Wealth God Sect.

Of course Waking will commend him. Zoe's level has directly reached LV7, and her strength is already stronger than the average master-level ordinary professional.

"What are your plans next?" Beta asked.

"When this place stabilizes, I will go to another city to preach."

Suddenly, Beta discovered that Zoe was already a true believer.
