069 'Choice'

--"report."

It is a straightforward and powerful way to leverage without any side effects.

Woody doesn't have to worry that the church will find out about him - this is the confidence of a player with rich experience in avoiding prophecies.

Although the turmoil has not really spread to Asenland, the prophecy spells have not completely failed.

But in "The Saint", even the prophecy has not failed.

Most prophecy spells are difficult to lock or trace back to the holder of the envelope simply by relying on a letter.

After all, most prophecy spells are used to understand the secrets of the past, predict the future, find items, find people, or see through deceptive illusions.

For example, targeting a specific person is very expensive and full of restrictions.

Just like you can see the future destiny through legendary prophecy, but if you want to accurately locate who the destiny is related to, the cost is not something that can be achieved with simple casting materials, and it is also full of various restrictions.

For example, he and Angelina went to the black market to find the "Red Lady", a believer of the night goddess Shar, and wanted her to help find the location of the little girl Lin in the slums.

The spell used by "Red Lady" at that time was the three-ring spell "Guidance" of the prophecy system.

However, the prerequisite for the guidance spell is that the caster has seen the target before and is within a certain range. Otherwise, no matter how many gold coins Angelina gives, Lin's location cannot be sensed through the spell.

Although more advanced spells, such as the eighth-level spell "Perception of the World", can locate the target body without having to see the target, and can only rely on some items that once belonged to the target, and can also obtain detailed information about the target.

However, the meaning of items is very broad, and it is extremely difficult to use an item to find a target who has deliberately guarded against prophecy spells.

To put it simply, if Woody uses an envelope that does not belong to him, and sends the message that does not belong to his handwriting to a person who has nothing to do with him and does not even know the inside story, then submit it to the temple.

So even if prophecy spells are used in the end, who is finally located, I am afraid only the gods know the real result.

Besides, generally speaking, he didn't need to go to this level at all. High-level spells were still very precious in Palermo at this period. Rather than finding the real culprit behind the scenes, it would be faster to verify it personally.

What's more, whether it was framed or not, we will know at a glance when the time comes.

The only thing Woody is not sure about is whether the existence or appearance of the drow can be considered a big event for the bishops of the temple.

So to be on the safe side, prayers were delivered to all three of his temples in sequence.

Whether it has any effect or whether they will take action is none of his business.

Anyway, Woody didn't expect that just by relying on an anonymous letter whose source could not be traced, the church would make up its mind to take action against a nobleman.

The last time he persuaded Aunt Susan, he relied on specious rumors to dispel her aunt's plan to buy the Rutov winery and let her choose to observe for a while.

What's more, it was just a casual move. As long as the seeds of doubt have been planted, that's enough!

Whenever the group of drow elves lurking in the crowd dare to take action again, they will continue to commit horrific acts.

Then he believed that the seed he buried in the temple would take root and sprout at the right time.

At that time, as long as the temple had doubts.

Then the worldly obstacles in front of them will not become shackles of imprisonment, but will help them break through the fog of the truth.



It was already late at night when Woody and Weilando returned to the winery.

They visited many places today, from the temple area on the King's Avenue to the commercial street on the south side of the city gate, and almost visited the entire trading area.

The evening was also full of rewards. Apart from not finding a suitable caravan, Woody's customized weapons have already been found.

Wilando, who had fallen asleep due to fatigue as soon as she got on the carriage, was pushed back to the manor by Woody's sleepy eyes. Then, under the service of the maid who went out to greet her, she prepared to take a bath to end this fulfilling and exciting time.

good day.

Woody did not return to his room immediately because he saw that the light was still on in the study room on the second floor of this luxurious mansion.

"Auntie should not be asleep yet."

Thinking of what he discovered tonight, Woody felt that it was still necessary to mention this matter to her in a subtle way.

I walked to the second floor and knocked on the door of the study. Just like last time, the same soft but majestic female voice came from inside.

When Susan Edith saw that it was her nephew, she gently rubbed the area on her ears with her slender white fingertips and smiled.

"I heard what you were saying, how about you, have fun with Weilandu tonight!"

"It's not bad. Weilanduo seems to like the fireworks and performances at the Harvest Festival tonight... and the food on the roadside."

"The grilled squid tentacles are actually quite delicious. Originally, Weilanduo said that she wanted to bring them back for you to try, but she was afraid of the cold and the flavor was not enough, so she didn't bring them to you."

Woody recalled that Villando basically turned into a train tonight, shopping and eating, and replied seriously.

With a puff, she laughed.

"I thought she had already forgotten me as her mother, but it seems okay..."

Tonight, Susan Edith was wearing a floor-length silver dress in the Baviaro style, with elegance and elegance. The bright moonlight outside the window shone on her body through the gaps in the blinds, even

That lazy and smiling posture adds a bit of holiness and beauty.

Woody said helplessly when he heard Susan Edith's pointed words.

"She has been looking forward to you going out to play with her. She said this at least three times today. The last time she went out to play with you was when she was six years old. After Viscount Branagh's divorce, you chose to take her to the circus as compensation.

That time with the group.”

After hearing Woody's words, Susan looked very complicated, and finally she could only sigh quietly.

"Oh... wait until I finish the recent things..." But before Susan could sigh, she was interrupted by Woody's voice.

"Aunt, you said this to me and she said it to me no less than five times."

"……."

The sad and lonely atmosphere was instantly interrupted by him. Susan Edith didn't know whether she should laugh or cry, and finally smiled apologetically.

"Okay, in two years' time, when Weilanduo gets married, I will no longer care about the family's wine business, and I will take care of her children then."

"This is the only daughter I have! Right, Woody."

"If you could say this to her in person, she would be so excited that she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight."

Woody joked without missing a beat.

"Okay, I will find a chance to talk to her. Now, Woody, you can tell her why you are here."

"You rarely come to my study. How can I help you?"

This lady, who exuded restraint and elegance, and had a certain "mature" charming temperament, fixed her eyes on the young man who was not far from the desk.

His figure is not perfect, although he is not short, and he is only taller than her at the age of sixteen, but it is these shoulders that are not very broad, coupled with the delicate and delicate face that has been baptized by wind and frost, which makes him more mature and steady.

The face, as well as the aggressive golden snake eyes that are said to have been transformed by alchemy, give people a magical power that makes the mind and body peaceful.

"Well, today I discovered a very interesting fantasy creature called "Shapeshifter". They can disguise themselves as any creature and steal its identity..."

Woody carefully considered his words and told her his worries about discovering the drow today in another cryptic story, and told her his worries.

Susan listened carefully and expressed her opinions from time to time.

Such as "Why can shapeshifters hide among humans?"

and “How to spot a shapeshifter…”



After a long time, Susan Edith digested the information Woody said, thought about it seriously, and finally asked.

"Then you want to tell me that there is this invisible danger in this city now, and you want me to leave?"

"Yes, it's safer over there in the Northland."

Woody was vague. After all, the drow priest was still there. He didn't want his aunt to get into trouble. If possible, he didn't want to attract anyone's attention.

"Is there anything we can do to prevent them? Or eradicate them completely?" Susan asked.

"No one has discovered it yet, and it is difficult to eradicate them. They retreat into their nests, and there is nothing we can do against them."

The Underdark is complex, and the difficulty of fighting drow underground is completely incomparable to fighting on the ground.

"That's it..." Susan said, seemingly understanding, but suddenly the conversation changed.

"Did Weilandu tell you about that today?"

"What?" Woody asked.

"Didn't I tell you? She is going to St. Lawrence's Hymans College. I want to send her there to learn knowledge."

"At this age?" Woody frowned. Aboriginal people are not like players. It is not too late to learn spells at the age of 15, but it also misses the best age for meditation.

"The main reason is not to learn knowledge, but because of my father."

Looking at Woody's reaction, Susan Edith sighed deeply.

"Today at noon, he called Weilanduo over to prepare to choose a marriage partner for her, but Weilanduo rejected her directly. She is more like me. My father was very angry. I was worried that he would force the arrangement regardless of his wishes, so I planned to

Send her away from Palermo and come back when the time is right."

"With Helena in St. Lawrence, I feel more at ease."

Helena is Woody's youngest fifth aunt and is now a lecturer at St. Lawrence College.

"So, what do you think...or do you want to go with Weilando? Woody."

Susan looked at the young man in front of her, stared into his eyes seriously, and asked sincerely.
