Just when Remedios was about to step forward to negotiate with the human soldier, Iri spoke first.
"Brother soldier, you'd better explain why you want to keep our weapons?"
"Yes! We are keeping the weapons for you to protect your safety!" Upon hearing Yi Li's question, the soldier immediately stood at attention and explained to them in a very respectful tone.
"Oh? To protect our safety? This is an interesting statement? But the weapon I wear is a treasure that can't be separated from my hand, can't I be accommodating?" Yi Li continued.
"Since it's Yi... Since it's a treasure, we can only be accommodating. However, no matter what happens in the room, you must not use weapons. If you can't agree, then please leave!" The human said
The soldier stood up straight again and answered.
Yili said nothing more, but looked at Remedios.
"I understand, then I will respond to your trust in allowing us to carry weapons. We will not use weapons here." Remedios replied, while moving his hand to the Holy Kingdom emblem on his chest, and swore an oath frankly.
.
"Then please be careful, the guards inside will come out first." However, the human soldier ignored Remedios's oath and kept looking at Iri, which somewhat made Remedios unhappy.
Then, the soldier turned around and knocked on the door. The door opened instantly, and then the person who emerged from the door was...
A huge figure that terrified everyone present. Although the silver armor exuded a sacred brilliance, the owner wearing the silver armor had a face that had rotted away, and his face exuded hatred for the living.
Crimson eyes, red eyes were staring at the paladins present.
"Don't draw your weapons!" the human soldier shouted directly.
"As long as you don't draw your sword! Nothing will happen! Once you draw your sword, you will die! Then you will suffer eternal pain! Please don't let us see this kind of scene again in Yili!" The human soldier looked at Yili.
He yelled with a painful expression, it was obvious... this soldier had seen a similar scene.
However, the huge undead man was looking around at the paladins in front of him one by one, as if waiting for them to draw their swords, and finally his eyes fell on Yi Li.
"This...is this undead?" Even Remedios could feel the terrifying pressure from this undead.
"This is the guard of Erantil." However, it was Iri who answered.
"This...this..." Remedios's voice trembled. I don't know whether it was out of anger or fear. Using such a thing as a guard? Can the people in this city be saved?
"Please... may I ask, is this undead a subordinate of His Majesty the Sorcerer King?" Neia asked cautiously from behind.
"Yes, Your Majesty also controls the undead who are more powerful than this, so please don't worry." The soldier glanced at Yili, then turned to give Neia the answer.
"Isn't...is there no danger?" Gustavo asked nervously.
"No, so far, no rule-abiding people have been killed." The soldier answered directly.
The meaning is very clear. Those who obey the rules...are not killed. Those who do not obey the rules...need not to say more, everyone understands.
At this time, everyone present understood how outrageous the Sorcerer King's ability was to be able to control the undead who hated the living and coexist peacefully with the living.
"That's it, then... we can continue to attend the lecture." Gustavo wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Then please follow me in." After the human soldier said that, the undead consciously gave way and stood by the door. The human soldier walked in directly from the undead. It seemed that
He's very used to this kind of thing.
However, the Holy Knights of the mission looked at me and I looked at you, not daring to move. Although there was no danger, passing by such an undead person exuding such terrifying power was like letting a person pass by a
It's just like a beast that is not restrained by a collar is passing by.
Remedios was the first to make a move at this time. She wanted to walk over, but Gustavo on the side grabbed Remedios and glanced at Neia.
Neia's face was ashen. Damn it, she understood that this meant letting her go first and becoming a sacrifice to this beast without a collar.
To say that the life of anyone present was the least valuable, his own. This decision was indeed correct. Neia accepted her fate and could only muster up the courage to silently recite her parents' names in her heart, then close her eyes and plan to walk over first.
However, Yili walked over first and was the first to rush in. When passing by the undead, the undead slightly lowered his head to Yili.
Then Neia quickly followed Yi Li and got in. When everyone saw Neia passing by, they breathed a sigh of relief and nervously followed in.
Entering the room, there was nothing special, just a very ordinary room with a few long tables, simple chairs, and some very simple decorations.
"Please wait a moment." The human soldier finished speaking and planned to go out.
"Thanks for the guide." Gustavo consciously took out a small money bag from his pocket and wanted to give it to the human soldier as a tip.
"Please don't do this!" the soldier shouted directly, and like a conditioned reflex, he distanced himself from Gustavo. The soldier's slightly exaggerated reaction puzzled the members of the envoy.
"His Majesty the Sorcerer King has paid us a salary, and we cannot accept this kind of kindness," the human soldier said.
"But this is not a lot of money, not to mention the fact that we are being taken care of..." Gustavo said very surprised, after all, this is a common practice.
"We understand your thoughts, so I will go out and wait for you to finish your teaching." After the human soldier finished speaking, he quickly left as if running away.
"What's going on..." Gustavo looked at Yili in embarrassment, but Yili just shrugged and didn't say anything.
"We can't force it if others say it won't be accepted, that's it!" Remedios said with a frown.
Remedios himself also found it strange that this type of tipping was almost customary and would almost always be given.
Although there is a hint of bribery in it, my status is much higher than that of the guards guarding the gate. If it is said to be a bribe, it should be more of a charity, right?
But seeing the guard look so frightened, the Sorcerer King should have banned it, but what was the Sorcerer King’s purpose in banning it?
