Parallel Armies—The Sound of the Turning Tide Chapter 45 Concert
The four of them came to the Church of the Goddess of Dawn and saw that the door of the church was open during the day. There were only some sick or injured believers inside, who were receiving diagnosis or treatment in a calm manner. There seemed to be no priests who could use high-level magic, and the paladin was a
No……
But even so, Dinefel would not go in, he would wait outside.
Sofia walked in and found an available priest, then asked if she could meet with His Majesty the Pope.
The priest told Sophia that the Pope usually only appears in the cathedral around early morning, and the Archbishop usually handles affairs during other times. If you want to see the Pope anyway and are very urgent, you can try your luck at night. He will report the truth.
, but whether the Pope will come or not is anyone’s guess.
When Zate saw these injured or sick believers, they all had ordinary wounds or ordinary conditions. On the Haven Prairie, they usually would not trouble the priests at this level... She stood at an out-of-the-way place inside the cathedral door to watch.
Looking at these scenes, I don’t know what I’m thinking.
Taking advantage of the opportunity where he didn't have to come forward to talk, Carlin walked around outside and took a look at the entire cathedral. However, the scale of this cathedral was really small, and it was extremely simple inside and out, with no decorations.
Carlin looked again to see if there were any ornately decorated buildings around here compared to the church. He walked around for a while to confirm. After all, the buildings here were more elegant than those in the civilian areas outside, but
Not much better.
Sofia asked again what time the Pope usually comes in the evening. The pastor answered her that it depends on whether the Pope wants to see people or not. If he doesn't want to, he will not come. If the royal family and nobles are pretentious, they may delay for a long time and not look good. There are various possibilities
Both sexes are there. But they won’t be there when it’s still bright, and the earliest it will be when it’s dark.
Sofia thanked the priest and asked Zate to leave the cathedral. The next step was to go to the square. The girl planned to use what she had learned to find out if there were any strange arrangements in the square.
The four of them came to the Wangdu Square. Even if it was just spring, there were still a lot of green shrubs in this place. Sofia knew that these plants were rich in oil and would not wither in winter. There were some stone chairs on the edge, and there were many children there.
Play here. Unlike squares in other cities, stalls are strictly prohibited here.
Are there no commercial shops around the square? They are all residential buildings. The entrance to the palace cannot be seen here, and it is half a city away from the city gate. If an assassination is carried out, the possibility of leaving through the city gate is relatively low - from the square to the city
The gate is about three or four blocks away, which is less than 1,500 steps.
Several of them had not been to the entrance of the palace, so they could only make a rough judgment. If the soldiers were more powerful than the guards they saw, the possibility of escaping was extremely slim.
Sofia walked around the square to see if there was anything strange about the layout. She was very sure that there were no strange devices on the surface or in the corners. But after all, the girl couldn't dig deep...
[I don’t see any layout on the surface of this place, but how to escape? It’s difficult to escape in this terrain.] Sophia was thinking.
Dinefel had been to the city gate before, but there weren't many soldiers there. There were quite a few soldiers patrolling at night, but they couldn't be seen during the day, so they didn't know where they were.
"Now that we're all here, should we go to the front of the palace to watch and observe?" Carlin felt that there was nothing interesting to see in the square.
"Then let's go for a walk. You can just look around without going in." Sophia took a step forward.
Compared with the palaces of the empire, they are all equally large in scale. But judging from the patterns on the walls, the carvings on the walls, and the tiles on the roofs, the Nevis Palace is simple. In terms of materials and building structure, this palace is more suitable for defense against attacks.
.But the two people who have seen the Imperial Palace are not here.
Carlin tried to use architectural planning and layout to analyze. First, he looked at whether the view between the square and the palace was blocked, and then checked whether the two buildings were on the central axis of the royal city.
The palace is very big, not only the central axis, but also the diagonals pass through it. The square is near the palace wall, very close. In short, Sofia couldn't find anything, but a few people can confirm that the assassination was carried out from here. It should be very difficult to escape.
…
Carlin found a kid and asked about the concert location.
Sophia found a corner and used Destiny Alert again. This time, she tried to include Brandon among the objects of investigation.
Fortunately, Sofia didn't see anyone's death scene, and the screen quickly skipped... After all, there were several hours of information.
"Now, let's go to the concert location first? I don't know if there is still a location." Carlin asked Sophia.
"We still have plenty of time to go to the concert. Let's go back to the circus. I want to detect what's going on at the circus in the next seven hours and have something to eat on the way." Sophia deliberately took a detour from the circus.
Going to the concert will take an extra quarter of an hour.
"Of course, the person holding the task list has the final say." After Karin finished speaking, Zate nodded, while Dinefel remained silent.
Several people returned to the circus. There seemed to be nothing unusual, and there were no circus members in the backyard. Sophia released the fate warning for the third time, but there was still no death scene. "Huh... at least while we were going to the concert,
There should be no serious problems here."
After that, the four of them found a small restaurant that looked good and had good food, and then went to the concert venue.
Before I even reached the door, I heard a passerby who had just bought tickets and went to have lunch say that there were still fifteen tickets left.
"Then we have to buy tickets quickly." Dinefel asked a few people to go first. He couldn't move too fast in this state.
Zate said "Yeah", and Sophia quickened her pace to spend money to buy a ticket.
Sofia and Carlin could sense the magic power surging inside the guild hall. It was obvious that something like a spell circle was in effect, but it was not very clever.
[What kind of concert requires formation?] Karin thought for a moment and looked around to see if there were any clothing stores or grocery stores. Can he buy cotton? You can plug your ears if something happens.
There are many shops nearby, and they are a little better than the shops outside the royal city, but they are still very average. Before the concert started, Kalin went to the shop and bought a handful of semi-finished cotton, holding it in his hand and returning to the queue.
middle.
Sophia casually gave another fateful warning, but still did not see the death scene. Then a powerful magic wave hit Sophia's position from the guild hall. The person who emitted the magic wave was no worse than Sophia in terms of spell attainments. He was very clever and probably very strong.
This is a warning.
"There is a spell caster here who should be stronger than me." Sophia said.
"Do you have any ill intentions towards us?" Zate asked.
"No, it's just a warning for the spell I just cast." Sophia shook her head.
"Maybe it's the master's pride and majesty?" Carlin wasn't sure.
"That should be it." Sophia looked at the sky, it looked like it was about 12:30.
While several people were talking, the last ticket was bought by a nobleman, and other businessmen and a few commoners who came late left in disappointment.
The nobleman was followed by several guards and servants, but his attitude was very low-key and very polite. The clothes were not expensive and made of high-end materials, and the workmanship was quite delicate. In short, they were much simpler than those of the imperial nobles.
Sofia straightened her appearance for a moment, then walked towards the noble. She said and saluted at a hearing distance: "Hello, sir."
"Aren't you a local citizen?" The noble said after watching Sofia salute: "I remember that the envoys from the Holy Empire of Canado used your etiquette." From the way he claimed to be, he was at least a prince, but his tone was very ordinary.
There are no shelves.
"Yes, sir. I am a mercenary. I recently came to the City of Rainbow Sleeves and planned to rest here for a while and visit the place. I accidentally discovered that there was a concert here, so I planned to come and enjoy the music of the kingdom. But I am not sure
I don’t know much about this master, and I also want to attend concerts to see adults, so I wanted to learn more about him.”
"About one-third of the citizens can help you answer your questions. I have other things to do and don't have time to answer your questions." The nobleman shook his head.
"Thank you for clarifying your doubts. I'm sorry for bothering you." While speaking, Sofia looked at the noble and vaguely looked at the expressions of him and his entourage. This one's expression was normal, while the other entourage and guards had a slightly different expression.
Looking forward to it, I don’t know why.
Then the nobles left with their guards and walked towards the entrance of the palace. They were not allowed to enter yet, and they would all enter at 2:30 in the afternoon.
Sofia inquired about the concert and the performers at nearby shops and passers-by. She heard that Morfiti was an ordinary civilian who was fortunate enough to be discovered by a magician and became a magic apprentice.
In the process of practicing magic, his status gradually rose. He fell in love with music after attending a concert by chance. And he was very talented, so he became a piano player and composed music in his spare time.
The name of Master Mo Feiti's masterpiece is "Life".
Carlin turned around and wanted to see the layout of the concert venue and the distribution of security personnel. There were a few basic guards. He learned that there were a total of 240 seats in the venue layout. There were four aisles on the left, right, up and down, and four areas in each area.
Rows, each row has fifteen seats.
The positions of the four people are in the lower left corner, in the last row, and closest to the door.
Carlin asked the nearby shopkeepers again, have those who come to buy tickets ever come here to spend money? Especially those dressed as rich people.
But basically civilians can also afford the ticket price. This venue has a large flow of people, and they can't remember a specific group of people at all. However, when this kind of master performs, there will be many nobles who have reserved seats.
The shop owner also thought that Mo Feiti was about forty years old this year. [If it weren’t for the fact that we were traveling together, I would have doubted whether there was really a problem here...] Carlin went to a food store or something like that and asked the boss.
How has the business been over the past few years? By the way, I would like to ask what drinks are better to quench my thirst.
