The sentry assassin stood at the corner of the alley waiting for his accomplices to come out. This location was also in darkness.
At this time, he heard footsteps approaching softly in the rain. He was about to turn out to meet his accomplices when there was a sound of shouting in the darkness in front of him, and a fist hit his temple with raindrops!
The assassin fell to the ground without a sound. Steven looked at it, returned to the window sill of the hotel, picked up the assassin who was on the ground, turned around and came to the corner, and picked up the assassin again and carried it on his shoulders.
Carrying two assassins in black, he walked deep into the alley.
After a while, Steven walked out of the alley and came to the street below the window. He rushed out a few steps and jumped up high. He stepped on the wall with one foot and stretched out his hands to grab the window sill.
, then he squatted on the window sill.
Steven jumped off the window sill, turned around and closed the window sash, took off his wet coat, wiped himself dry, changed his clothes and fell on the bed. After that, no one should disturb his sleep.
Just now, he was planning to interrogate the two assassins deep in the alley, but when the two guys woke up, they chewed up the poison hidden in their mouths at the same time, and died soon after, making Steven's interrogation plan a failure.
.
There is a high possibility that this assassination was from the same killer organization as the one who assassinated him last time, with the same clothes and martial arts. Last time, he tracked into the opponent's stronghold and killed the person in charge of the stronghold, but still did not get more details.
The clues are the same this time.
This organization may not be able to determine that the murder of their branch leader is related to Steven and the others, because he has been separated from Kate, Jane and Blake. Jane was not around when the other party found him, so they probably did not know that they were there.
Things to do in Port Cania.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent just two minions to find him!
But after today, the situation may be different! The other party will find that his strength exceeds expectations, and will definitely re-analyze and consider it, and will definitely suspect that the incident at Cania Port is related to them!
What a hassle!
These guys stick to them like dog skin plaster! Although Steven is not afraid of them, being targeted like this will definitely hinder his exploration of desert ruins!
However, there is nothing we can do now. We are in the dark while the other party is in the dark. Moreover, the other party is a killer organization and must have a strong intelligence network. It seems that this trip will not be an easy journey. I just hope that I can get rid of them in the desert.
While Steven was thinking, he couldn't help but fall asleep tiredly.
After Steven got up the next day, he decided to write a letter to Kate, reporting his situation and reminding Kate to pay attention to the abnormal situations around him.
He did it as soon as he thought of it. He immediately asked the hotel waiter for banknotes, sat at the table and wrote a letter. In the letter, he roughly told that he joined a mercenary group in Murphy City, made some money and continued on the road, writing
When I wrote the letter, I had already arrived at the city of Santa Vera in the Principality of Tre, and I was writing to Kate and the others here.
At the end of the letter, Steven used the secret language between him and Kate to briefly describe the assassination in Santa Vera City, reminding Kate, especially Jane, to be careful of abnormal situations and people around them. Although he did not think that the killer organization would
Keep an eye on Kate and the others, but necessary notifications and reminders should be given.
After writing the letter, Steven checked out of the hotel and went to the post office to mail the letter before preparing to leave Santa Vera City.
After purchasing some consumables for the road in the city's business district, Steven rode a horse and slowly walked out of Santa Vera City. When leaving the city, he felt like he was being spied on again!
It seems that I will be very busy for some time to come.
A few hundred kilometers eastward after leaving the city of Santa Vila is another large city, Uksa City. From this city, he will leave the Principality of Trey and enter the Principality of Fortis in the east.
There is a steam train that just opened two years ago from Ukesa City to Pallase City in the Principality of Fortis. He can travel hundreds of kilometers on the steam train, saving a lot of time on the road.
At the same time, on the outskirts of the city of Santa Vera, on a stone mountain, a complex of buildings entirely made of rocks stood on the top of a limestone mountain. The building complex was surrounded by a wall also made of rocks, surrounding several buildings.
Inside, here is the Monastery of Saint Vera.
In a room in a two-story building next to the main church, Dean Riano stood behind the desk against the wall in the room. On one side of the wall, Conrad sat on a chair on the floor in the center of the room.
There were two people standing, one was Brother Harmon, the assistant to the dean, and next to him was a fat middle-aged man who was shaking all over.
This middle-aged man was clean-shaven, revealing green stubble. He was not wearing a monk's uniform, but a handyman's uniform vest. At this moment, he was shaking all over, and cold sweat was running down his plump face.
It flows down, collects on the round chin, and is about to drip onto the protruding belly.
Dean Riano's eyes glowed coldly and he said in a low voice: "Sancho! Tell me why you are doing this? The monastery arranged for you to be the head of the handyman. Can't the benefits you get satisfy your empty heart?
?!What temptation led you to betray Brother Martin?"
Sancho could no longer stand. He sat down on the ground tremblingly and said in a high-pitched voice: "Lord Riano! I didn't expect this result! He just asked me to provide the whereabouts of Brother Martin to satisfy his needs.
The curiosity of scholars and chroniclers! He said that he had a very strong interest in the ascetics and wanted to know about their practice process..."
"Are you still acting? Sancho! How much money did they give you? Now, tell us in detail how you betrayed Brother Martin and the book he carried! We will request it based on your confession
The Holy Lord gives you a gift!" Dean Riano interrupted Sancho and said in a low voice.
Sancho, who was sitting on the ground, finally stopped shaking and seemed to have lost all scruples: "He said that he was a biographer, interested in the life of ascetic monks, and wanted to write a book about the practice of ascetic monks. I only know that his name is Silas
Si, who came from the Principality of Livingston in the Northern Federation, rented in the town of Kamo. I met him in the tavern in Kamo Town. I provided him with information about the monks who were away from the monastery, and he paid me money regularly.
.”
"How long have you been in this relationship?" Dean Riano asked.
"For two or three years, Silas was very interested when he heard about Brother Martin going to the Glory Cathedral to practice. He asked me to focus on understanding Brother Martin. He would pay him separately. I only knew that he wanted to live a monk's life.
Writing it into the book, I didn’t know it would have such a result! Please forgive me! Lord Riano..."
"Harmon, take him down. I will request a trial and let the Holy Light punish him." Dean Riano said to his assistant in a calm voice.
