When Torento said something, everyone, including the city lord, immediately became silent and stared directly at him.
Of course they paid attention to what happened in the middle of the night yesterday, and they also knew that a group of unidentified strange "things" participated in the battle of Sundburg, helping Sundburg defeat the vampire monster and protecting the peace of Sundberg.
The city lord and the shepherd guards also saw those things, which were skeletons. They still can't understand why the skeletons can move, why the skeletons want to help them, and where the skeletons come from.
However, some older nobles excitedly told them that it was the holy corpse, the real master of Sundburg, and it was the holy corpse that protected them.
It doesn't matter whether this is true or false, but the city lord doesn't want to hear it.
The holy corpse is just a legend. Who has seen the real holy corpse for many years can explain clearly what the holy corpse is.
Only those old nobles who are about to be buried will claim that they have seen the holy corpse and know what it is.
According to the old nobleman, he, the city lord, is still under the holy corpses, so he still wants to listen to the orders of those skeletons?
How hilarious!
The city lord was dissatisfied with what the old noble said, but he wanted to know what was going on.
At this moment, Torento mentioned it and he discovered the clue, so he asked in a deep voice, "It seems you know something."
Torento held his head high and said, "Of course I know that it is the holy corpse, summoned by my master. Without the protection of the master and the holy corpse, the blood-sucking monster would not be defeated. This is the mercy of the master!"
One master at a time, the city lord and the other two shepherd guards were stunned for a moment.
Who is this owner?
Why is it the holy corpse again?
The city lord became more and more irritable, and his tone was no longer as calm as before. He said angrily, "Okay, Torento, since you say so, let your master come to see me. I want to see him in person."
As a dependent of the undead tribe, Torento consciously maintained Li Ziyu's prestige and shouted with a stern face, "Pay attention to your identity! You are just the Lord of Sonderburg. What qualifications do you have for my master to come here to see you in person?"
, don’t you know what the holy corpse means? You should respectfully greet the owner as a visitor!"
Getting more and more bold!
The city lord's face darkened, feeling that he had given Torento too much care in his daily life, so that he was now regardless of size.
Listen to what is being said. He is the lord of this city after all. There are things he cannot control, big and small, in the city. There are people he cannot see. Yet he actually dares to let him come to the door in person.
, what a pomp!
The more the city lord thought about it, the more angry he became. The anger on his face became stronger and stronger. He smiled angrily and said to Torento, "Okay, Torento, then I will follow you to see this great man. Let's take a look."
What does he look like!"
After he finished speaking, he didn't say much nonsense. He immediately made preparations and set off for the manor in Torento.
The city lord has made up his mind. He wants to tear off the mask of the master in Torento's mouth. No matter whether this person protects Sundeburg or not, don't try to snatch the power from him!
The four people led soldiers and private soldiers and marched all the way towards Torento Manor. People on the surrounding streets saw it and looked around curiously, not understanding what was going on.
The team came to a stop outside the manor. It wasn't that they didn't want to go forward, but they couldn't go any further because the door was blocked.
A dozen Skeleton Spitter Type 4s holding guns stood at the door, with soul fire burning in their eyes, staring at the approaching team.
At the same time, in the surrounding treetops and shadows, the hunters raised their guns and aimed at the soldiers in the team. If the other party tried to break through, they would immediately attack and kill the intruders.
Looking past these scary-looking guys, you can see more similar beings in the manor. Some are even cavalry, riding weird-looking things, like cars, but with only two wheels and very fast speeds.
Skeletons are not easy to mess with at first sight.
These skeletons were the same skeletons that were cleaning up vampire monsters and living corpses in the inner city of Sonderborg in the middle of the night yesterday.
The city lord and the pastor both recognized it and looked at each other with hesitation in their hearts. It seemed that Torento was telling the truth.
What if these are really holy corpses?
The city lord was a little worried about gains and losses.
According to legend, the holy corpses were once the rulers of the world. They built temples and the first cities, giving people shelter and allowing them to survive in this crisis-ridden world.
But the holy corpse has not appeared for many years, and no one except some old nobles has seen it.
The city lord couldn't explain what happened to these moving skeletons, but he didn't want them to be holy corpses, because that would affect his authority.
deny?
If it is an ordinary skeleton, he does not have to admit it. The soldiers of Sundberg are under his control. If he can suppress them, he is still the biggest.
But these skeletons are obviously not comparable to the soldiers of Sundberg. Their ferocity far exceeds the combat capabilities of the soldiers. They can confront blood-sucking monsters head-on, and can kill so many blood-sucking monsters and living corpses.
The city lord regretted his recklessness. What are you doing here? You are bringing humiliation to yourself.
Come on, it's useless to say that, at least you have to see the person behind these skeletons, the person Toronto calls his master.
The city lord stepped forward, coughed slightly, and said to the skeleton ejector guarding the manor, "I am Jonathan, the city lord of Sundburg City. Get out of the way. We want to enter the manor."
……Quiet……
Awkward.
City Lord Jonathan's face trembled, no one had dared to deny him face like this in many years.
The skeleton in front of him was like a dead thing. After he finished speaking, there was no movement, and even the flames in his eyes did not change at all.
Wait, are these skeletons dead?
Jonathan's expression changed, he glanced at the Skeleton Spitter in front of him, and took a tentative step forward.
Um?
No action?
Go forward again.
Still no action.
Jonathan was relieved. It seemed that these bones could no longer move for some reason.
There's nothing to be afraid of if your bones don't move.
He confidently took the third step.
Pull!
The Skeleton Spitter Type 4 neatly raised his gun, and pointed the black muzzle at Jonathan. The threat was very obvious. If he moved forward, he would be treated as an intruder.
Jonathan's body froze.
He had seen this thing last night. He didn't know what it was called, but it was obviously a magic item. It could spit out flames and make loud noises. It could attack from a distance and was very powerful. Even the skin of a blood-sucking monster could block swords. Using this magic item
It can also be punched through.
It would be really cool if we got into contact with each other!
Jonathan was silent and froze in place at the same time as the Skeleton Spitter guarding the manor.
When the two shepherds at the rear saw this, they immediately moved forward, but Torento stopped them with his hand, "I'd better go."
The two of them glanced at Torento, backed away silently, and gave up their place.
Torento straightened his clothes, stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Please tell the master that his dependent Torento is back."
The Skeleton Spitter slowly rotated his skull, the soul fire in his eyes jumped, looked at Torento, and nodded slowly, they felt the aura of the family that had been activated in Torento.
As the soul fire beat, the message was passed to the villa.
Li Ziyu, who was still sleeping, opened his eyes blankly, rubbed his hair and sat up from the bed.
"Let them in." Li Ziyu said to himself.
Alina, who was sitting boredly on the sidelines, saw Li Ziyu getting up and talking to herself again, with confusion on her face, "Are you talking to me?"
Li Ziyu stood up and stretched, and explained sleepily, "Toronto is back and can't get in at the door. I'll ask someone to let him in."
Elena said "Oh" and continued to sit there in a daze.
Li Ziyu checked the time in the system and found that she hadn't slept for a while. No wonder she still felt sleepy.
Torento is very fast.
The information was passed to each other through the undead and reached the gate of the manor.
The Skeleton Spitter looked at Torento, then at Jonathan and the guards and soldiers behind him, put away his gun, and moved out of the way.
Torento bowed respectfully, and then said to Jonathan, "Please, Lord City Lord."
With something being blocked in front of him, Jonathan dared to leave first. He smiled at Torento and said, "Toronto Shepherd, this is your manor, so naturally you go first."
Oh, how nice it is to be so polite earlier.
Torento sneered in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change. He smiled, nodded, and took the lead to walk inside.
Jonathan and others followed them one after another. As soon as they entered the manor, the Gale Rangers came up and followed them on both sides.
The soldiers who followed did not know what was going on with the Wind Ranger, but they instinctively felt that the Wind Ranger was not easy to mess with. They all silently clenched their weapons and followed closely behind their master.
The journey to the villa was smooth, and the young housekeeper was already waiting at the door. When he saw a large group of people approaching from a distance, he quickly bowed and saluted.
Torento turned to look at Jonathan and said softly, "Lord, the soldiers don't need to go in. This is a private residence."
Jonathan thought for a moment and nodded, "Well, the soldiers are just outside. There's no need to follow them in."
The only people who followed Torento into the villa were Lord Jonathan of Sonderburg and two other shepherds.
Li Ziyu knew that someone was coming, and it seemed that they were coming for her, so she called the housekeeper and asked him to arrange the living room.
After last night, the housekeeper did not resist Li Ziyu's instructions at all, but felt that this was very normal.
Even their master Toronto was so respectful to Li Ziyu, so naturally those of them who survived because of protection should be even more respectful.
The young housekeeper led the four of them into the living room.
Entering the living room, a few people immediately saw the man standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside with his hands behind his back.
Hearing the footsteps, Li Ziyu turned around and looked at the four people with a calm expression.
Torento took two steps forward and said loudly, "Master, I'm back."
Li Ziyu smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Well, who are these?"
Torento quickly introduced, "This is Jonathan, the Lord of Sundburg City."
The middle-aged Jonathan looked at the young Li Ziyu and did not salute, but just nodded as a greeting.
It was hard for him to believe that such a young man could be the owner of the holy corpse.
Torento pointed to the other two people and introduced, "These two are the shepherds of Sundburg, this is Beta, and this is Omer."
Beta and Omer both looked to be in their thirties, similar to Torento.
Beta has a mustache, a civilized staff, a top hat on his head, and a typical aristocratic dress. If Torento hadn't introduced him, it would be difficult to associate him with a position like Mu Shou.
Umar had a beard on his chin, which was carefully trimmed, his hair was tied into a ponytail, he wore tight-fitting clothes, and had a one-handed sword at his waist.
Compared to Mu Shou, Omar's dress is more like that of a swordsman.
After introducing the three city lords, Torento introduced Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu nodded to the three of them, stretched out his hand to indicate, asking the other party to sit down, and he naturally sat on the main seat. This move made Jonathan frown secretly.
After sitting down, Li Ziyu looked up at Torento and asked him with his eyes, "What do you mean? What are the city lord and the other two pastors doing here?"
Torento caught the look and immediately said, "Master, the city lord and the two pastors want to come and see you."
Am I a giant panda? You want to see me? Li Ziyu complained in his heart, but said in a very calm tone, "I wonder what City Lord Jonathan wants to see me for?"
Jonathan showed a smile that did not raise any hostility, and laughed heartily and said, "I heard from the pastor of Toronto that there is a hero here who saved the city of Sonderburg. Naturally, I, the city lord, want to come and see him.
, I didn’t expect this hero to be so young.”
Li Ziyu looked at Jonathan calmly and said, "Lord Jonathan, I don't like indifferent politeness, so just skip these. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Well, this young man is somewhat ignorant.
Jonathan was unhappy, but his face didn't show it at all.
He still had that smile on his face and asked, "Okay, let me tell you straight. I want to know what is going on with those...skeletons. Some people say they are holy corpses. Why don't you explain, Mr. Li, what's going on with those...skeletons?"
Corpses are a big deal, and it would be bad to misunderstand."
Li Ziyu scratched his head, chuckled, and said nonchalantly, "What a coincidence, those are really the holy corpses you call them, but I prefer to call them undead. The full name of your temple is the Temple of the Dead.
, which is exactly what they created.”
Jonathan couldn't keep his smile, his face turned cold, and he said in a serious tone, "Mr. Li, do you know what you are talking about? If you talk nonsense and cause panic in Sundberg, I have the right to arrest you.
Get up."
"Tsk." Li Ziyu clicked his tongue and said calmly, "Since you don't believe what I said, what are you doing here? You want to use your power to force me to admit that the undead have nothing to do with the holy corpse. I just don't know.
Where do you get outsiders to help?”
It's not that Li Ziyu looks down on Jonathan, it's just that his status as a city lord is not enough.
Li Ziyu is the owner of the moving castle. Even among time travellers, he is a powerful being. An aboriginal city lord yelling in front of him is a bit like dancing a sword in front of Guan Gong.
Especially when the force in your own hands is much stronger than that of your opponent, it becomes even more ridiculous.
The other party doesn't even have the ability to lift the table, so there's nothing to worry about.
Without waiting for Jonathan to speak, Li Ziyu continued, "Jonathan City Lord, I am very busy and have no time to fight over your little power. I also advise you not to try to anger me. The consequences of angering me are not something you can bear. Well
, that’s not right to say, it’s something that the whole of Sonderborg cannot bear.”
After the summoning channel was strengthened, Li Ziyu was able to summon more undead. Sonderburg was really nothing in his eyes. It was a small city and he could destroy it with his current power.
An angry look flashed across Jonathan's face, but he quickly covered it up. He suddenly realized that he really seemed to be no match for them. After the attack of the vampire monster last night, which caused serious losses to the soldiers, the opponent also held the so-called holy corpse in his hand.
, in terms of combat effectiveness, he does not have an advantage.
Even if we want to go to war with the opponent, we have to find a way to call the three noble knights under Sundberg over!
