Nicholas still just smiled. Www!QuanBen-XiaoShuo!com said: "If you want to be angry, I can't help you."
Naturally, some businessmen would be dissatisfied if Nelisse killed someone in the street. However, they recognized Salin and thought it was the two Yunliu merchants who had collided with the city lord. No one attacked them. When they were about to disperse, a guy dressed as a Scotian suddenly jumped out. Loudly said: "Lord Salin, your people are so violent, we can't stay in this city anymore!"
This time, Nicholas took action immediately. A black light flashed from his fingers and landed on the forehead of the Scotia businessman. Then, a black symbol appeared on the head of the Scotia businessman. , hanging in mid-air.
Nicholas took two steps forward and waved to the Scotian man.
The Scotia man's face turned pale, and Nicholas said: "You are marked by an evil mark. At the cost of burning your life force, this mark will always be above your head. It cannot be hidden. Unless, unless you die. If you want to live, , just tell me why you did this.”
This move is more cruel than Nailisi. If this person leaves, his life will slowly be exhausted.
The Scotian was speechless and wanted to leave, but he felt that his life force was indeed passing away rapidly. If this continues, he will die of old age in at most half a year!
"Untie it for me!" The businessman didn't know what the evil mark was and wanted to confuse people. Just as he was about to say something threatening, Nicholas spoke again.
"You are from the Holy See, right? I smell a familiar scent. Everyone, be careful. There are spies from the Holy See sneaking into the city. These people want to assassinate the city lord. Otherwise, as a businessman, why would he risk offending the city lord? He is here. , is it to make money, or for some lofty ideal?"
Nicholas is learned, but his words are different versions of a proverb from Scotia.
For Skochinians, making money is always more important than ideals. In other words, most Scotians believe that money is ideal.
The onlookers dispersed with cheers. Nicholas' words were far more effective than weapons. Everyone was confused. Since this person is a Skochinya, why should he stand up for a Yunliu person? And he reprimanded the city lord in person. Doesn’t he want to make money
Saleen was a little embarrassed. The reputation of this Scotia man didn't seem to be very good.
"You!" The Scotia man pointed at Nicholas, but found that there was a trace of white holy light on his fingers.
"Want to purify me?" Nicholas sneered, and a black insect flew out of his hand and exploded on the Naskotian's finger, breaking the finger pointing to him.
This Scotia man couldn't argue with himself. Nicholas was the one who created the holy light.
Salin looked at it and admired it. This Holy See's magic stick was so powerful. With just a few words, the Scotia people fell into a trap. Of course, that Scotia man is not clean either. He must know something, or he is simply an assassin.
There is no way around assassins sneaking into the city. However, he stays within the temple grounds all year round. The patrols there are all Caucasians and undead, and outsiders cannot get in.
What Salin was afraid of was that these people would assassinate businessmen in the city and create chaos.
At this time, another group of soldiers passed by and bowed when they saw Salin. Nailis pointed at the Scotia man and said: "This is a spy of the Holy See, arrest him."
This group of soldiers was extremely afraid of Nailisi, because there were already rumors in the army that a slave girl next to the Lord of the City was a devil.
While they admired the city lord greatly, they also had a heartfelt fear of Nailis.
Fortunately, the Lord of the City is a powerful mage and must have tamed this demon. The fear of demons in turn increased the worship of Salin. These people don't understand magic, and they don't know what the contract is. They have evil thoughts in their hearts - that devil must have taken a fancy to the Lord of the City, so he committed himself.
Now Naerys had spoken, and the soldiers tied up the Scotiaman like wolves and tigers. The Scotian wanted to resist, but when he made a big move or even exerted a little force, he found that the power could not be gathered. It seemed that a small hole opened in the top of his head. Once he exerted force, the power flowed out from the small hole. .
He was a fourth-level assassin who was hit by Nicholas's seventh-level fallen spell. It was a joke to resist.
"Take it to the academy and hand it over to the mage for interrogation." Salin simply explained, and then continued walking towards the temple. The merchants all dispersed. None of them wanted to cause trouble, and they were smart enough to know that there would be weird things here, and they were all afraid of getting into trouble.
After entering the temple area, Salin smiled and said: "Nicholas, that evil mark of yours is very interesting."
"Lord, this magic... is indeed evil. As long as it is hit, you will lose the ability to resist. In the Holy Church, this is the most common method to deal with heretics."
"heresy?"
"Well, as long as you are hit by this magic, you will become a heretic even if you are not a heretic." Nicholas explained.
Salin asked in surprise: "Isn't this a frame-up?"
"For God, no matter what you do, it is just." Nicholas's voice became more and more bitter. He discovered that once he was no longer a member of the Holy See, his previous actions could be said to be extremely evil.
The group returned to the temple, and Salin gave Nicholas the blueprint of Broken Blade Pass and asked him to help redesign it. He and Nailisi returned to the room to rest. His left hand has not fully recovered yet, and its movements are slow, making it very difficult to practice new magic.
It didn't take an hour. Someone came to report, and the Scotchian confessed.
Salin did not go to see the prisoner in person. The matter was generally very simple. The Holy See issued a reward, and whoever could kill Salin would receive a reward of 100,000 gold coins.
One hundred thousand gold coins is enough for many people to struggle for a lifetime. Nobles below the earl would consider risking this bounty.
At the same time, Salin also learned that Dinisio was not targeting him alone. Many famous nobles in Qin were on the reward list.
This move is fine against the Scotia people, but not against the Qin Yin people. The effect is much worse. The nobles around Qin Yin are all very reliable people. The credibility of the Holy See has always been questioned in Qinyin, so naturally few people are tempted, but Yunliu is different from Scotia.
There are many assassins among the Yunliu people, and many of the Skochinian manpower are desperate mercenaries. After hearing this news, many people will naturally try it.
The Holy See's bounty list has been announced for some time, but Salin is a new addition. These assassins had already entered Metatrin City before the expeditionary force arrived. However, Metatrin's city was under tight control and Salin rarely showed up, so they never got a chance.
"Reward? I can do this too!" Salin laughed. He didn't take the Vatican's reward to heart. As long as he stays in the temple honestly, with so many strong men around him, even if Byrne comes, they can't assassinate him.
"Master, what are you spending this money on? There is also a reward in Holy Rock City for the heads of people from the Holy See."
"I do not know how?"
"You are the city lord and the king, how can you personally assassinate him?"
"Nelisse, let me ask you, did you swallow all the heads of the corpses on the battlefield?"
"Master, those who can't be sold for a few bucks are all low-level magicians." Nailis replied shyly. She also knew that the master would not care about her for such a small amount of money.
Of course, Saleen wouldn't care. Nailis was greedy for money, and unlike humans, she basically occupied resources out of demonic instinct. And there is another interesting thing about Nailisi, that is, she likes to find a human feeling. This is why she rewarded the first team of soldiers today.
"Yeah. I'm not in danger. I'm just an ordinary person in the city. I'm afraid I might be harmed. You... you tell Sikka and ask her to send more people to conduct a search."
"Master, assassins can't make waves. When will the arena you planned start?"
"In July, Daniel's side is still short of manpower. I have to wait for the nobles to provide manpower."
"Shall we do it ourselves?"
"Yes, who told them to avoid this matter in the first place? Don't underestimate the income from the arena. Although it is not as good as magic core and ore, it is real. There is income every day, and at the same time, it can feed a lot of people. .
Seeing that Nailis didn't quite understand, Salin said: "There are always some idle people in the city. If these people have nothing to do, they will become hidden dangers, or become impoverished, become thieves, or be bribed by the enemy to do damage. It’s a matter of the city. The arena can absorb this kind of people and become our own strength. The operation of the arena itself and the financial investment can support these people by the way, and there is no need to come from the city hall.”
Nailis said: "I still don't understand. Anyway, I am a devil, so I don't need to understand. Master, you are working hard to become a magician. What should I do during this time?"
"Nelisse, Castlevania will be built in half a year at most. You can communicate with Sicard and teach her the knowledge of the demonic plane. Didn't you say that Castlevania should be managed by her?"
"I'm just saying that for real management, you still need to rely on demons."
"Are you lying to Sika?" Salin asked with some dissatisfaction.
"It's not a lie. Master, don't let Sister Sika face a group of demons all day long. She will be the nominal city lord, and she can also command the big demons under her. However, for the daily management of this demon city, it is best to find someone else. people."
"Why?"
"Master, it's okay for demons with high intelligence. Demons with low intelligence are very bloody. Sister Sikka is a priest. She is not in a good mood after being exposed to this all day long."
"Then you tell me, who will manage Castlevania, and it can't be me?"
Nailisi was also in a dilemma. There were many loyal people around Salin, but not many strong ones. Everyone has their own things to do, and they are inseparable.
"Master, how about... let the few magic beast swordsmen around Zola go." Nailis suggested. ! ~!
