"Of course we know each other, but I think it's better for us to set off today. After all, it's quite remote there to be honest. I really don't know why that Dailan guy's family would put their base in such a remote place. Although it seems like
It looks big and luxurious, but to be honest, it looks like a haunted house, I mean like the Castle of Evil." Leon didn't know if he was describing it humorously or seriously.
but.
Evil Castle?
The earliest translation of Resident Evil was called Castle of Evil.
"Okay, by the way, we went over to celebrate Dailan's birthday, so it wouldn't be good to go there empty-handed. What suggestions do you have?" Lin Yun scratched his head and said.
"As far as I'm concerned, it's simple, just play a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix. Anyway, you can play this tune anytime." Hunyuan said with a relaxed look.
Lin Yun and the others were speechless.
After all, there is a saying that as a true "famous song passed down from generation to generation", "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" can not only be played during red events, but also during white events. In theory, it can be played at any time.
It's amazing.
"What gifts do you think that guy from Dailan needs? Don't forget, he is very rich himself, and he is also the queen's cousin. Haven't you noticed that there have been a lot of noble carriages in Juanze City recently?" Ni
Lu said sarcastically.
".
It seems indeed." Lin Yun nodded slightly, recalling Comelia's recent complaints, he also nodded slightly.
Because in fact, many nobles recently wanted to stop by to visit Lin Yun and get to know each other, but Lin Yun let Comelia push them away.
The reason is that Juanze City has just been rebuilt and the city lord is not available.
Speaking of which, is it because of this that those in the so-called Wang Family Council thought that Lin Yun was disobedient and wanted to show off his power or something.
Ahem, forget it, don’t worry about the details.
"Lord City Lord, I finally found you." At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared.
Nero's quickest reaction was when his ghostly hand came out of the cage and grabbed him.
"Ah?" This figure obviously did not expect such a situation to occur, but he still subconsciously pulled out the long sword at his waist and blocked it.
It was just that the ruthless ghost's hand wrapped around the long sword and grabbed the figure with one stroke.
The surrounding civilians suddenly started shouting, and everyone was ready to run away.
The surrounding soldiers drew their weapons and surrounded them one after another.
Among them are the Devil May Cry Army, the Crusade Army, and those from the Everlasting Crusade Army.
But finally, Lin Yun came to his senses at this time, "It's nothing. Sorry, this is a battle exercise. The main purpose is to test what would happen if a sudden battle breaks out in the city. You guys did a good job."
"Exercise?" These soldiers looked at Lin Yun in confusion.
But Lin Yun waved his hand, and everyone could only put down their weapons.
At this time, a tall man with sharp yellow-green eyes and blood flowing from his mouth could be seen in the ghost's hand, nodding to Lin Yun with difficulty, "I'm really sorry for causing such a big misunderstanding.
"
The reason why Lin Yun said this was, on the one hand, because this man was wearing mithril armor and his attire seemed somewhat similar to Hu Erlun, so Lin Yun wanted to know more about it.
Even if this is a cultist disguise, we still have to squeeze out some information.
"Please allow me to apologize for this erroneous behavior, but I really can't help it, because if possible, I don't want too many people to know about what I am going to say now, including the fact that I came to you.
"With a wry smile, the Crusader said.
"Well, this first request won't work. Probably half the city will know that there is a scumbag." Hunyuan on the side complained directly.
"Well, I'm really sorry. I was too reckless." The crusader's expression was a little stiff, and he even felt like he was about to cry.
After all, he was almost crushed to death, just like an ant.
I can only say that fortunately Nero has not directly used constriction, but only grasped it subconsciously.
In this way, with this guy, Lin Yun and the others ran to an alley on one side. Of course, Lin Yun also asked Shaye and Blight Bird to pay attention to the surrounding situation.
"So, what's the matter?" Lin Yun crossed his arms and said with squinted eyes.
"Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell me, and thank you for the time you have to give. I am Riot the Falcon Blade, the Inquisitor of the Church of Iomedae the Lightgiver. There is a sensitive matter that requires your assistance, involving you.
A companion of his, the young Earl of Dailan Arundel."
"Are you Hu'erlun's subordinate?" Lin Yun said as he saw that the armor on Riott's body looked similar to that of Huerlun, and he also looked like a judge.
"Uh, yes." Riott said with an awkward yet polite smile.
"It seems that you are very familiar with Hu'erlen's reputation." Lin Yun also felt something interesting when looking at Riott.
"The dean is an extraordinary person, but he was harmed by his own paranoia and strong sense of responsibility, and his sharp mind was gradually eroded. He has witnessed too much ferocious darkness, and now he is suspicious of every shadow. However, he
His strength has been and is a shield for the people of Montevi. This is my opinion. In order to prevent him from making unforgivable mistakes, comrades and advisors are indispensable." Facing Lin Yun's words,
Riott said firmly.
"Maybe, what about you?" Lin Yun knocked on his arm, signaling for others to also pay attention to the identification, don't always be the only one thinking, Kouya.
"I was born in Ulfen, but I have lived in Montevi for most of my life, serving those who came after me. Most of my warrior brothers worshiped Gruum, but I was never keen on fighting just for the sake of fighting. I was an excellent person in my early years.
I am a warrior who can easily outperform most of my peers, but I don't like to show off my skills. The victory itself is dull, it is the goals that add flavor to the war."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It can be clearly seen that when talking about the latter part, Riott glanced at Nero and felt a little bit weak.
"I dare not say that I have always been a devout defender of Iomedae. As early as when I was a mercenary, fate brought me to the border of Montevi, where I spent a long time in the Crusaders. time. Fighting side by side with righteous comrades, and witnessing all kinds of atrocities of the devil, I finally found what I have been looking for all my life: purpose and belief. That's how I established my mission. Although it may be difficult sometimes, But I have never regretted my decision."
"What do you think?" Lin Yun looked at the others.
"D20 17=27, Observation Motive check successful."
At least from Lin Yun's perspective now, he can't see any big flaws.
"Let's ask what's going on first." Leon raised his eyebrows slightly and then said.
Because he also felt that the problem was not big.
"I would like to ask you to assist the Church of Iomedae in an extremely important investigation. I know that the leader of the Jihad has many other matters to deal with, but please allow me to tell you the details. Perhaps this will explain the reason for my visit to you. "The judge's frank face immediately revealed his feelings. He frowned, his gaze seemed to penetrate Lin Yun, and he lost his mind briefly, "I believe you have heard of the story of Earl Arundale? I mean what happened in The tragedy at Paradise Edge Manor.”
"I've heard a little bit about it." Lin Yun narrowed his eyes subconsciously.
After all, this matter is quite profound.
"About ten years ago, several powerful demons successfully passed through the barrier of the guardian stone and massacred all the guests attending young Dailan's birthday party. The unknown magical disease they brought spread in less than a day. , killing everyone in the entire estate. This in itself was not a unique case: the demons had tried to attack Montevi's territory in this way before, but they had never dared to target such a well-defended place. "Riot said quickly.
It can be seen that he speaks clearly and fluently, and it is obvious that he has made many reports.
But probably the most important thing is that he always remembers this.
"The Arendai family is extremely wealthy. The manor is protected by elite bodyguards, and there are also several powerful righteous paladins among the guests. Moreover, Delan's mentor, the respected Nesterin, is the strongest priest of Iomedae in the local area. One. However, except for the young earl who suddenly showed extraordinary divine healing ability, everyone died. Is that a miracle or a curse? That is unknown." Riott began to press. He frowned, and then his speaking speed began to slow down.
"So what are you going to do, let me go to Heaven's Edge to investigate?" Lin Yun frowned slightly, and then asked.
"Yes. I have several reasons to doubt the widely circulated accounts of what exactly happened at the manor, and how it happened. Commander, I was one of the people sent to inspect the manor after the incident. I I saw everything with my own eyes, and I still remember it vividly, even though it feels like it happened a lifetime ago." Riott clenched his fists, and then closed his eyes slightly, as if recalling the situation at that time.
"Heaven's Edge is a unique place. It still carries the spirit of the ancient Montive, the Montive before Worldwound appeared. But on that day, it turned into a house of horror full of mysteries. It's like something that can only be seen in nightmares. Forgive me for digressing... I want to tell you my suspicions." Riott said in a deep voice.
"So, what you want to know is why the only one who survived was Dailan, a little baby." Nero on the side also frowned.
"Yes, everything about this incident is weird. Why is the only one who survives is a little boy who has just awakened the gift of divine magic? Why did no one send anyone to Cannably for help during the hours of pain?
?When we entered the manor, we found that the demons were all dead and their heads had been chopped off. How were they defeated? Why were the paladin present killed by the disease even though they were said to be immune to any disease? If so,
The demons have found a way to break the defense of these holy guards, so why has this situation not happened again after the tragedy of Heaven's Edge?" There was a trace of confusion in Riott's eyes, as well as eyes that were seeking knowledge.
