Passing through the dense tunnels criss-crossed with grains and water built like underground fortifications, Jill quickly found the place where the three mysterious people had buried the'treasure'; among the narrow dense channels, a huge one His pocket lay quietly on the ground.
The eyes of Jill and Bu lit up together, "Jill, shall we open it?"
"certainly!"
The two of them took apart the rope, but the first thing that appeared in the cloth bag was not the dazzling treasure, but a girl with a white face and closed eyes. The two screamed together, like He retreated like a ghost.
"Ah! Jill, this is not a treasure!"
"Of course I know, my God, this must be a murder! Martha is here, it happened under her nose, God testified, I didn't do anything!"
"Boot, give me a quick hand, I'm so scared that my legs are weak."
"Jill, it's the same with me. Not only my legs are frightened, but my back is also frightened." Bu said with a sad face. This is the first time he has seen a dead person since he was a child.
"Don't talk nonsense, Bu, how could your back be frightened!"
"It's true, Jill, it's soft, and even the wall behind it has become soft..."
"Nonsense, how can the wall become soft?"
"Really, let alone what I said, it's just an illusion!" Seeing that his companion did not want to believe in himself, Bu angrily replied.
But before he finished his words, he heard a gentle voice saying behind his back: "I think it's not an illusion-it's because you are leaning on my feet."
"Ah!" Bu screamed in fright, and when he looked back, he saw a gentle and kind-looking young man standing behind him in a black noble gown with a long sword on his waist.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! , We just... only meet occasionally, you must never catch us to the port authority..."
"I'm just saying... I'm just saying, you don't want to wrong a good person..." Jill watched with a trembling look at the stranger who appeared silently-although he was bold, the punishment for murder in Ampersel was always severe. Everywhere they are deprived of their citizenship, confiscated all family property, and hanged.
Of course, the most severe thing here is to confiscate all property, at least in the eyes of Gil and Bu.
This is simply the punishment of falling into hell.
The young man who appeared suddenly was naturally Brando. He who possessed half of the soul that passed through the "future" in his body would naturally not know this tunnel under the temple; this tunnel is shared with the Great Temple of Andere Füller. Designed and built by Rogning, the tunnel was originally designed as a fortification under the temple, but later the temple used it to do a lot of ugly things.
The tunnel entrance and key should be in the hands of the chief priest, and ordinary people are naturally not allowed to enter. Unfortunately, there is a mission in the Amber Sword related to this tunnel, so this tunnel has an'extra entrance'.
This unknown entrance is connected to a sewer and is one of the "back doors" left by Rogning. During the Ampersel offensive and defensive battles, players on the side of Eruin used this secret entrance many times to repeatedly attack the Ande Füller Temple under the control of Madara. Therefore, this secret passage was once also destroyed. Call it the'lifeline of the temple'.
However, in this era, the descendants of the Rogning family who provided the task should still be living in Greywind Harbor, waiting for the call of fate. Brando has reason to believe that there can be no second person besides himself knowing. Such a secret way.
So he was surprised when he saw Jill and Boo.
He had thought that Princess Magdal might also have this authentic key in her hand. With her position beside Wood, the princess had a chance to copy a key. Although this is not in line with her identity, Brando can more or less guess this with the princess's determined attitude in boasting Haikou in front of him.
But he didn't expect that he would meet a pair of big goblins. The big goblin race is very familiar to him. It can be said that it is a hotbed of thieves. Among the players, many famous'Nightingales' also come from this race.
When they appeared here, Brando knew what they were here for at a glance.
Really bold.
At this time Freya walked out from behind Brando. Of course, the first thing she saw were two noisy little guys. She couldn't help staying for a while: "Brando, how come there are two goblins."
"No, we are not goblins! We are fairies!" Jill was out of anger at once. He could bear the hanging, but he would never tolerate others slandering him as a goblin.
Although in Warnd, both goblins and fairies belong to the same big family of fair creatures, fairies absolutely disdain to associate with dirty goblins. In their view, goblins are cavemen, or cavemen are the ancestors of goblins.
"Fairy? Isn't the fairy small?" The future Valkyrie even stretched out her hand to compare it, saying, isn't the fairy only a little one or two inches long, with beautiful wings.
"That's the forest goblin, we are the big goblin!" Jill replied irritably, but his tone couldn't help being a little depressed; just like a goblin looks at a goblin, the big goblin is indeed lower in blood compared with the goblin in the forest. There are several levels.
"That's it, ah—" Freya was nodding, but suddenly she saw the pockets behind the two big goblins, her face turned pale: "Princess Magdal!"
Brando's complexion also changed. He didn't wait for Gil to say, he separated the two, and pressed his hand on Princess Antobrero's neck-body temperature was cold, but still soft, but he could not feel the pulse-cloth Lando had learned battlefield first aid from Freya, of course he knew what it meant, but he didn't give up, so he called out a virtual light screen to take a look, and his heart suddenly became cold.
A line of cold characters on the glittering fluorescent screen:
Name: Magdal? Armandro Dour de Antobreau
Race:? ?
Gender: Female
Status: dead
The sword was hurt in his heart, almost passing through his chest. Human beings are hurt like this, even if one foot stepped into the elemental realm, it is undoubtedly mortal, not to mention that Princess Magdal is just an ordinary person...
Brando's hands trembled slightly, and his expression became gloomy. Princess Magdal doesn’t have much interaction with him, whether in this world or in the game, but the nun princess left him a very good impression in just a few meetings. She is gentle and gentle. Courteous, but without the faults of ordinary aristocratic ladies, not staid and indifferent, and even warm and hospitable; the most commendable thing is that in the deceitful aristocratic circle, she did not get any bad habits, even in Eruin In the darkest days with the temple, she still maintained the purest heart.
For the sake of friendship and strengthen one's conviction, there are very few such people even in a modern society where the spiritual civilization is more developed. Although the princess of Antobruo is a believer, she believes in the true truth, the most shining aspect in people's hearts.
Freya squatted down beside Brando in silence. This was not the first person to die in this political struggle, but she was the person she had always known the most—and the princess’s best friend. , The girl who was kind and gentle on weekdays, now lying there coldly, became a corpse.
Such a shock made her bit her lip tightly.
Brando sighed and stretched out his hand to smooth the hair that was messed up by the fight during the princess's death, and try to make the other party look calmer.
"Brando..." The voice of the future Valkyrie was trembling. It wasn't that she had never seen death, but she couldn't understand why she wanted to kill each other to this point.
For the temple, isn't the nun princess always the most devout believer
Brando shook his head, with some doubts in his heart. This result was beyond his expectation. He thought that even if Magdal was exposed, he would be under house arrest at best. How could the other party use this poisonous hand, how dare to do it, the other party’s reaction was beyond him. Expected.
But he couldn't figure out a clue for a while, instead, he felt like a mess in his heart.
In the eyes of others, he has never been a sensible person who is indifferent-this is exactly the opposite of most nobles in this land. The nobles appreciate this cold reason, and even think it is an outstanding merit necessary for a good lord. -But Brando is incompatible with this quality.
It took a long time before he came back to his senses. Looking back, staring at Bu and Jill coldly: "Look at the good things you two have done. You murdered a princess from another country on the land of Eruin. You know how big a mistake you have committed, and it is even possible. Start a war—"
"I must arrest and deport you. Only in this way can the anger of the neighboring countries be calmed..." Brando tried to make his tone cold and appear to be business, although his heart was as heavy as suffocating.
Gil and Bu, who were staring coldly at Brando, turned blue with fright. Although they didn’t know what this young nobleman meant, it sounded terrifying anyway. It was war again and again. To calm the anger, the two little guys couldn't help trembling with fright.
Especially with Freya wearing Eruin's uniform on his side, which makes this threat seem very convincing. Although Freya was wearing the military uniform of the Imperial Guard, the two big goblins could not tell the difference between the Imperial Guard and the soldiers of the Port Authority.
In their view, Brando was the terrible murderer who wanted to arrest them.
Of course Freya knew that Magdal could not have been killed by these two little guys, but they might know something here. She knew that Brando was trying to trick each other's words. Although Jill and Bu were trembling with fright, she felt a little unbearable, but when she thought of Princess Magdal's tragic death, she had to harden her heart.
Bu and Gil were so scared that they couldn't say anything, until Brando added: "Of course, these punitive measures also include the confiscation of all your property—including those you buried in the forest outside the city."
"No, how do you know!" Jill was frightened. Every time the Great Port Court confiscated their entire loot, in fact, only a small part of them was confiscated, because the big goblin had a habit of burying the property. Their clan generally chooses an unknown and fixed place to bury their belongings. Usually a clan chooses a place, and only the big goblin can know where there are which'ethnic' treasures.
But Brando is an exception.
"No, no, I mean, it's none of our business, you can't do this..." Jill and Bu were anxious. If they were just shocked before, this time they are really fidgeting.
Especially when the thought of their property is still in jeopardy.
"It's none of your business?" Brando raised his tone and asked coldly: "Then what are you doing here? Don't tell me you are here to steal things, right?"
"No, we're here to steal things." Boo pours beans and confessed his criminal behavior immediately, and Jill, who was anxious, wanted to shut his mouth.
"Very good." Brando said coldly: "According to Amperisel's law, stealing is also punished for half of the property, and you have to go to jail for a year. You should all be aware of this?"
"Oh no..." I regretted it at once, although it wasn't for confiscation of all the property, but half of it was enough for them. In particular, this time is half of all the'real' possessions.
"But there is still a chance to make up for it." Brando changed his words. "You are now participating in a murder case. If you can provide some useful clues, maybe I will consider reducing your sentence as appropriate."
Brando seemed to be a justice when he said this, but the two big goblins did not consider what legal procedures they need to go through to become a justice, or whether their theft cases are in compliance with the rules here. In short, in their opinion, a nobleman must have the right to shout and slay them.
The two nodded hurriedly.
"Very well, tell me how you found her?" Brando asked.
"She? No, no, sir, we just found a pocket, we didn't know this... The princess was in it." Jill replied quickly.
"A pocket?"
"Yes." Jill hurriedly confided everything he had seen before, for fear that some omission might cause the'honourable judge' to change his original intention in anger. It is conceivable that since the other party can alleviate their feelings towards them. Sentencing can naturally be aggravated, right
Jill admired his cleverness for a while, his emerald-green eyes turned so fast, and for a while, he even recalled some details that he hadn't noticed before.
"Three people? Can you imitate their tone?"
"Brando?" Freya was startled slightly, she looked at Brando strangely, definitely this request was a bit redundant. To be honest, the tone and the way of speaking between the nobles are actually the same. It is actually impossible to tell who the other party is from the conversation—especially if you don't know who the other party is.
But Brando shook his head slightly, indicating that she didn't need to worry. He frowned slightly, his thinking was clearer than ever. What happened to Magdal really angered him, and this time, those behind the scenes were destined to face his anger.
Ventilation is one of the skills of the night thief, and Jill is naturally proficient in this. He first imitated the first person's tone and accent, Brando understood immediately, "Murrose." He said silently in his heart.
"Next."
"Youxi."
"Next one."
"This guy doesn't seem to know him, but he sounds like a soldier; the Hong Kong Guards probably haven't come together with the temple. Besides, Murros and Youxi won't believe them. They should be members of several major legions. Earl Vitogin His confidant?" Brando frowned, and Freya's previous concerns were not a problem for him. Most people couldn't hear it, but it didn't mean he couldn't.
Those who dare to act on Magdal will certainly not be unknown people, but must be the ones with backgrounds. There were only a few of these people in Eruin, all of whom Brando was very familiar with in history, and their tone of voice was distinctive to him.
Coupled with the murder of Princess Magdal, even the temple would definitely not be able to cover it. Therefore, the fewer people who know, the better, and those who do it will definitely take care of the aftermath themselves, rather than fake it.
And as soon as he heard Jill's description, he fulfilled the guess in his heart-as expected.
There was a sneer on Brando's face, and his eyes were too. Freya looked at him and couldn't help but stay for a while: "Brando, you know?"
She was a little unbelievable, although Brando had demonstrated the ability to convince her that there was nothing that the other party could not do, but it was also unbelievable now. Are there people in this world who are born with omniscience and omnipotence
This thought only existed in the future Valkyrie's heart for a moment, but she immediately saw Princess Magdal's pale face, she felt a sense of relief in her heart, and vaguely understood the reason for Brando's anger.
"Brando..." she cried faintly sad.
But Brando patted her hand and whispered: "Don't worry, the matter of Princess Magdal can be saved. But in any case, this time I must let those secretly performing conspiracies and tricks get an unforgettable experience. Lessons."
The last few words were almost squeezed out of his teeth through gritted teeth.
"Ah!" Freya was stunned, she couldn't help but raised her head in disbelief and looked at her companion: "The princess... she..."
Brando nodded seriously, this was not comfort, but something he had suddenly remembered before.
