"How can we? We also act according to the rules. Of course we can't just kill people casually."
Central No. 10 is smiling, but has no emotion when speaking. This strong contrast gives people a very uncomfortable feeling.
Not to mention that the smile on Central No. 10's face was very stiff, as if it was squeezed out of his face, which made people shiver down their spines.
Lin Zhan also noticed that when this guy said those words, he always kept his hands straight on the sides of his body, like two sharp knives, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the person in front of him.
Sure enough, unlike everyone he had seen before, this shadow guard was very dangerous. I'm afraid what he said just now was just polite. If he wanted to, he could kill at any time.
For this kind of role, Lin Zhan is usually too lazy to talk nonsense and just go up and do it, but he can't do that now. In addition, this is not his home court. After thinking for a moment, he should not be the first to step out and stand at the back honestly.
Let's see how the situation develops.
As soon as Center No. 10 finished speaking, those cold and piercing eyes stared at Priest Dusk, giving people a rather terrifying feeling, as if a battle was about to break out in the next second.
Faced with this provocative look, Priest Dusk did not give in. Instead, he stood up directly and looked directly into the eyes of Central No. 10.
"I heard that it was you who gave the order to the soldiers not to deal with the carcasses of wild beasts outside the city. Don't you know the dangers lurking inside?"
As expected, Central No. 10 was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He didn't care about the identity of Priest Dusk and just started questioning him nakedly.
Generally speaking, due to the special status of the Twilight Priest, he has a special status among the senior officials of the imperial capital. Even if some mistakes occur, they must be handled by specialized departments.
But considering that the specialized department of the priests is now in name only, it can be said that in the imperial capital, as long as the dusk priests are willing, they can do whatever they want.
Such a naked question from Central No. 10 really made Priest Dusk smile. He was laughing out of anger. He didn't expect that the shadow guard would rush up to him so directly.
"I'm sorry, I am also acting under orders. If you are willing, you can ask Princess Liuli directly."
Dusk Priest suppressed the anger deep in his heart, slowly said what he meant, and at the same time pointed at Liuli next to him.
At the same time, Liuli nodded very calmly, and like a magic trick, he stretched out his hand, and a sealed scroll appeared in his palm.
This is the scroll that the Dusk Priest commissioned Liuli to make just now.
Taking the scroll from her hand, the Dusk Priest spread it out and showed it to the shadow guard.
It is very clear on this that the reason why the disposal of the beast carcasses outside the city is postponed is due to Liuli's order. As for why this is done, it also uses a very simple sentence: "The royal family's affairs have nothing to do with you."
Taking out this scroll instantly activated the atmosphere at the moment, making the atmosphere on the field very stiff. Everyone present was waiting patiently, worried that some unexpected accident might happen next.
After all, we are facing a shadow guard. This guy is a real outlaw. Even if he goes on a killing spree here, it is entirely possible.
The squad leader standing next to him was shaking crazily. He was probably very worried deep down in his heart. If a direct conflict between high-level officials broke out here, no matter what the final outcome of the conflict was, his position would definitely be over.
You might even have to put your own life on the line here.
"I hope Her Royal Highness the Princess knows what she is doing and I will stop interfering."
It was quiet for a long time, and when Lin Zhan almost thought that the battle was about to break out, the shadow guard suddenly decided to get out of the way and did not continue to struggle.
Putting aside these words that looked like a demonstration, Center Number 10 turned around and walked towards the depths of the Imperial Capital without even a trace of nostalgia.
During this period, Lin Zhan and others stared closely at the shadow guard's back, and it could be seen from everyone's different expressions that these people had their own agenda.
When Central No. 10 could no longer be seen, the squad leader sighed heavily and wiped the dense sweat on his forehead.
This strong man with big shoulders and round waist looked extremely weak at this moment. I am afraid that he was not as weak as he is now after finishing the battle against the beast a few days ago.
To be able to show such emotions in front of Liuli, I am afraid that for a strong man, those shadow guards are more terrifying than the eldest princess.
Of course, Lin Zhan still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the small actions of the team leader, because strictly speaking, the team leader guarding the city wall was completely innocent and was forced to be involved in the struggle between high-level officials.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhan looked at Priest Dusk who was standing next to him. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to touch the woman's arm slightly, but of course said nothing.
Even so, Priest Dusk could tell from Lin Zhan's eyes and movements what exactly Lin Zhan wanted to express at this moment, so he took a step forward.
Seeing the Dusk Priest approaching him, the team leader who had already relaxed suddenly became nervous, and his whole body tensed up to the limit, fearing that this terrifying woman would settle the score with the queen.
All I saw was that she took out a piece of crystal that was blooming with luster, the size of a fist, and energy fluctuations at the level of a god king were revealed from it.
"I'm really sorry, because I didn't think clearly and caused you to suffer such an unintentional disaster. This is as apology. I hope you won't be offended."
Priest Dusk tried hard to make the smile on his face look more friendly, and at the same time put the crystal square into the team leader's hand.
He lowered his head and looked at the crystal, and then raised his head to look at the Dusk Priest, who seemed to be very amiable. The team leader was a little confused by the strong contrast, and for a moment he was not very clear about what happened.
"Okay, okay, things here are finally settled. Let's go back as soon as possible. We haven't been back for several days. We need to clean up properly. I don't know how much dust has accumulated."
Lin Zhan waved his hand, and after seeing that the matter was finally resolved relatively satisfactorily, he started talking to the others.
Finally, Liuli verbally praised the team leader, and the group finally left the city wall.
After walking some distance, Lin Zhan saw Priest Dusk walking in another direction, so he stopped her out of curiosity: "Why, won't you go back with me?"
At dusk, the priest didn't even turn his head and said very calmly: "I won't join in the fun."
Lin Zhan couldn't help but feel a little helpless when looking at this woman who always seemed to be in trouble.
