"Tattoo..."
A team of about thirty knights galloped along the bluestone road leading to the Temple of Eternity in Carter City. The knights dressed in black cloaks, riding pure black tall horses, proceeded silently.
"Who? Stand... um..."
When a patrolling soldier saw this team of knights, he was like an enemy, but his mouth was immediately covered by the patrol captain.
"Shut up! Fool!"
The patrol team evaded to both sides of the road under the command of the captain. It wasn't until the pair of knights galloped past that the patrol captain wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear.
"Captain, why don't we stop them?"
Looking at his ignorant subordinate, the patrol captain yelled: "You idiot! Did you know? Our team was almost killed by you just now!!"
"what?"
Seeing the bewildered expression of his subordinates, the patrol leader's anger in his heart was even stronger. He kicked the unopened man to the ground with one foot, cursing: "Idiot! You don't open your eyes wide." Look carefully, that team of knights are the butchers of the Religious Inquisition!! If you want to die, wipe your neck, don't take our big guys to die together!"
After the scolding, the patrol captain was still puzzled and kicked the hapless guy several times. "The toilet cleaning in the team next month will be your own life! When you do work in the future, be more mindful..."
As a soldier who has experienced the "Third Religious War", the captain of the patrol is very clear about the weight of the words Religious Tribunal! But all the people who belong to the religious court are mysterious and unusual, possessing powerful power that ordinary people can't imagine. They are not only the most loyal and fanatical believers of the gods, but also the most cruel and cruel butchers.
Every time the people who sent out the religious trial office were basically because of the so-called evil heretics, especially the mages who had blasphemed the gods and also possessed extraordinary powers.
Seeing the knights going away, the patrol captain's heart was cold, and he couldn't help shivering: "Close the team!!"
After giving the order, the patrol captain led the soldiers under him and hurriedly returned to the camp where he was stationed.
…
"Not enough time!"
A cold voice sounded from the knights: "Nathan, you take one person to the temple and the city lord’s mansion, and inform the bishop and the lord to immediately block the city! The remaining people are divided into two teams, one team goes to the noble area to catch heretics, The other team followed me to the port area to prevent the heretics from escaping... Act now!!"
Following this order, the team of knights was immediately divided into three teams, two large and one small, and dispersed. In this process, there was still silence in the team, and the speed of the knights did not slow down.
…
In the dark and silent night, Victor and the others were following Master Rosa quickly, walking in a long underpass.
"Unexpectedly, in a small Carter city, there will be so many secret tunnels... I don't know who built it?"
Victor, who was walking in the secret tunnel, sighed with emotion in his heart.
In about half an hourglass, everyone walked out of the underpass. What was revealed in front of them was a canal dug out by hand, and two exquisite and unique "gondolas" were docked by the river.
Before boarding the ship, Rosa said solemnly to everyone: "Everyone, you may encounter some dangers during this journey! I also just got the news... Due to the infiltration of the temple, a betrayal appeared in the Magic Society. Of course, all our secret routes to Greenland have been exposed!"
"Fortunately, the Magic Society has several more secret alternate routes... But even so, we must be vigilant and not make any mistakes!"
After hearing the terrible news, the apprentices' expressions immediately became tense, and the faces of the timid guys turned pale and scary.
"Dean, Victor, Hobbs, and Irene, you guys are responsible for keeping order!" Rosa assigned the task, "Well, everyone will get on the boat right away! We will pass through the canal directly through the port. The wharf in the district... When it's at sea, someone will pick us up."
With anxiety, everyone boarded two small boats.
There are 8 apprentices on the "Gondola" where Victor is located. Among them is the long brown-haired female apprentice Irene.
Because Lord Rosa was on another ship, the apprentices on Victor's ship were more worried.
"Mr. Victor, do you say the journey will go smoothly?"
"If there is an accident, what should we do?"
"Master Rosa is not here, if something really happens, can he take care of us?"
"..."
The apprentices, who were uncertain, lowered their voices and asked Victor.
"Don't panic yet!"
Victor looked at the crowd and said calmly: "Everyone first think about what kind of spells you can use? Check your belongings and see if there are any necessary magic materials... Then I will make arrangements!"
"I can use'Improve Resistance','Projectile Items'..."
"I can also cast'projectile items' and'stun spells'!"
"'Frozen Rays','Projectile Items'..."
"'Phantom Sound Technique','Projectile Objects','Mage's Hand'..."
"'Projectile items','rehabilitation'... I still have thunderstones..."
Everyone reported the zero-ring spells they could cast.
Perhaps because of Victor, all mage apprentices can skillfully apply the zero circle spell of "projectile items".
Victor said in a deep voice, "Eileen, just now you said you have thunderstones? How many pieces are there?"
"Well, I count... it's 20 yuan in total."
"very good!"
Nodded with satisfaction, Victor already had a framework for a combat plan in his mind.
"Everyone must recognize that we are not ordinary people without any fighting ability, but apprentices with extraordinary powers!"
Victor explained: "There are two main types of battles on the water, one is long-range combat, such as ballistas and bows, and the other is side-to-side combat, which is a face-to-face hand-to-face battle."
"If we are really in danger, as apprentices of wizards, we will have more advantages..."
"Mr. Victor, do you mean... as long as we don't let the enemy approach this ship, is it safe?"
"Yes! Mr. Victor should mean that!!"
"..."
Victor looked at the apprentices who had returned to normal in an instant with some dumbfounding. He was really speechless for their self-braining.
"Fighting, how easy it is to say..." Victor was silent, "It's better to pray that everything goes well!"
Note: "Gondola", also known as "Gong Dora", is a small pointed boat with unique characteristics. This kind of boat is light, slender, and unique in shape. Its structure is primitive and simple, and there is almost no extra decoration except for the seats.
