For five days in a row, the city of Navia was plunged into an inexplicable and strange atmosphere.
The priests, deacons, and servants of the Temple of Fortune, whoever dared to leave the temple area, all died on the spot, and the methods of death were even more strange.
Throat cutting, backstabbing, poisoning, etc., and so on.
Not only the Temple of Wealth, but also the Temple of Sin, which has a great relationship with the Temple of Wealth.
Moreover, the most surprising thing is that the murderer did not cover up.
On the corpse, the green stones are so conspicuous.
'Green Stone', an organization that was already well-known in Navia City, within a few days, its reputation has reached a level that other organizations can hardly match.
But people are very interested in the 'origin' of this organization.
In the city of Navia, there have always been rumors that the 'Green Stone' is a subordinate force of a certain temple.
And in the last few days, many people have said with incomparable certainty that the 'Green Stone' is a subordinate force of the Temple of Thorns.
It's so obvious!
Every assassination is aimed at the Temple of Wealth and its related things and people.
As for the temple of thorns buying murder
it's out of the question.
No one believed that Lady Thorn would do such a thing.
In fact, even if the 'Green Stone' is a subordinate force of the Temple of Thorns, it is already very surprising.
If it hadn't been for another rumor, many believers in the Temple of Thorns would have shaken their faith.
Moreover, compared to the previous rumor, this one is the most talked about.
This rumor came from the temple area
A certain deaconess of the Temple of Thorns met the leader of the 'Green Stone' because she was investigating the theft of the 'Holy Grail of Thorns'. The two had a spark of love during their brief relationship! And this time, it was also the leader of the 'Green Stone' who acted angrily in order to protect his beloved from harm!
A strong man who hides in the dark, a weak woman who needs to protect the kindness in his heart, an unexpected encounter, and a common and evil enemy.
When these are put together, even if it is old-fashioned, it is enough to attract people's attention.
Especially those people who don't know the truth and the young ladies who have nothing to do.
This kind of thing satisfies their fantasies enough, and at the same time, it also becomes a topic of conversation after dinner.
From the dining tables of the nobles, to the receptions of the merchants, to the chats of ordinary civilians, there are voices discussing this rumor everywhere.
Almost most people in Navia are talking about the love affair of the 'King of Killers'.
Naturally, this rumor intensified and quickly covered up the previous rumors.
Men can't help but wonder what kind of beauty can conquer the 'King of Killers'.
The women were curious about what the 'King of Killers' looked like, and quite a few wanted to replace the deaconess with their own bodies.
Moreover, these women have declared their love for the 'King of Killers' in public many times.
Although most of them were reprimanded and grounded by their own families afterwards, no one would repent for this.
At least, not yet.
Huai. Chun. Girls, most of them are like this, they don't care about it.
Today's reception is no exception.
When the organizer's eldest daughter and second daughter said such words at the same time, the old earl's face turned green, and he called the servant to take the two daughters back to the room.
Although the response was timely, the cocktail party carefully prepared by the old earl was ruined.
Many guests laughed secretly.
But the old earl didn't care about these at all, but walked quickly towards a corner of the venue.
The old earl doesn't need to care about other guests, but the old earl must be scruples about the guests here.
Because the status of the guests here is really special.
Adopted son of the High Priest of the Temple of Sin: Bakod.
The most promising successor to the high priest in the Temple of Love: Lilith.
The most prestigious young hunter in the Temple of the Hunter: Pud.
The first priest in the Temple of Music who can play the Divine Comedy on the flute: Livweize.
Three men and one woman, a total of four people.
Although they are all young people, the identities of these four people are destined to be extraordinary. If there is no accident, they will all become high priests or chief priests in thirty years or even a shorter time.
Therefore, the old earl's heart was full of sincerity and fear.
"Sorry, four gentlemen!"
"My little girl drank too much, she made a slip of the tongue after drinking, it's really embarrassing!"
The old earl bowed sincerely.
"It's fine."
"Go and ask the cook to help the two sisters cook sober soup."
Lilith, who has golden hair, blue eyes and a charming smile, said in a gentle voice.
Pudd, who is strong and strong, and Liv Weiser, who is slender and elegant, focused their eyes on Lilith and ignored the old earl at all.
Bao Kede, who had a gloomy face, snorted coldly.
"Spoken words after drinking is also common thinking, the torturers of the Temple of Sin... Forget it, since Lilith has spoken, I will bypass them this time."
"However, only this time!"
Baukod said coldly, but when Lilith looked over, Baukod's attitude softened immediately.
But he still sternly shouted at the old count.
"Thank you for your generosity!"
The old earl did not have any dissatisfaction with this, on the contrary, he thanked him again and again.
"Lilith, you embarrass me like this."
"If my father and the priest find out..."
"I will definitely be confinement in the prayer room for a month, or even longer!"
After the old earl walked away, Baukod looked at Lilith and said with a wry smile.
"If you are really in confinement, I will definitely send you the food I made myself!"
Lilith responded with a chuckle.
At the same time, he flicked the wire next to his ear with his fingers.
Under the candlelight, the golden silk immediately produced a shining halo, illuminating the plump figure.
Involuntarily, the eyes of the three men were attracted.
"I suddenly found that I wanted to be confined!"
"I'm already thinking about whether to take the initiative to confess to my father what happened today!"
Looking at the dazzling lady in front of him, Baukod couldn't help but sigh softly.
"If you do this, you will never eat the food I cook again for the rest of your life."
Lilith said seriously.
That serious look appeared on that beautiful face, which melted Bao Kede's heart even more.
"No, no!"
"Certainly not!"
"Why would I do something to make you unhappy?"
Baukod said almost swearing.
And this appearance made Lilith chuckle again.
Seeing Baukode and Lilith chatting and laughing, Pud and Livweize secretly gritted their teeth.
Obviously, all three are suitors of this Ms. Lilith.
It's just that Baukord has the upper hand most of the time.
This made Purd from the Temple of the Hunter very uncomfortable.
Pu De, who has a straightforward temper, couldn't help but speak immediately.
"Baokede, don't you need to deal with the 'King of Killers'?"
"You who have accepted the gold coins from the Temple of Wealth, are you also devastated now?"
Pudd asked again and again.
"'King of Killers'?"
"It's just an abandoned child from the Temple of Thorns!"
"The Temple of Thorns wants to survive, so it introduced such a cunning person who only dared to attack low-level priests and ordinary deacons."
"Trust me, he will be sent to the stake in the end!"
Baukod's words were full of disdain.
As soon as Pude raised his eyebrows, he subconsciously wanted to refute the other party.
But there was no reason to refute it.
Because, he didn't believe that the 'King of Killers' could do anything big.
In the same way, Liv Weiser thinks so too.
The Temple of Wealth, the Temple of Sin, and the power of the two temples combined are definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"is that so?"
Lilith, however, had a hint of sadness on her face.
This change was immediately noticed by the three men.
"Lilith, you won't treat that 'King of Killers' like those women..."
Pude asked, but before he finished speaking, he saw the blush on Lilith's face, and that coquettish look made Pude and the other two widen their eyes.
They had never seen Lilith like this.
The answer naturally appeared in the hearts of the three of them.
"snort!"
"Lilith, you shouldn't be interested in a cunning coward! If he appears in front of me, I will definitely let him understand what a real strong man is!"
"By the time… "
After Bao Kede snorted coldly in his heart, he opened his mouth and said.
However, the words are a meal.
"What time?"
"Do you want to show your bravery and compete with the opponent?"
Pudd asked with a smile.
Although he didn't take that 'King of Killers' seriously, he didn't think that Baukord would have a fair one-on-one with the other party. He knew the other party's insidious nature too well.
Livwei Ze also showed a smile.
He doesn't mind the two rivals fighting each other.
However, the two soon realized something was wrong.
Not only did Baukode not continue speaking, but he also stood there in a daze, motionless.
"Baokede, what are you doing?"
Pudd raised his hand and pushed the opponent.
Unexpectedly, a red line appeared on Baokede's neck.
puff!
The blood in Bao Kede's chest spurted out more than three meters high, and his head flew high.
The headless corpse fell to the ground and fell into a pool of blood.
But, no head!
A figure that was faintly visible even under the candlelight flew up into the air, grabbed the head, jumped up again out of thin air, and jumped straight out of the window.
Everything happens between lightning and flint.
The people at the reception didn't react at all.
Not to mention these ordinary people, even Lilith, Pud, and Livweize didn't respond.
The three of them stared blankly at Bao Kede's body.
at this time
Ding!
With a crisp sound, a green stone flew in from the window and fell into the blood.
Among the bright red, the emerald green is extremely dazzling.
And those who saw this emerald green trembled without exception.
With trembling voices, they called out the title of that person.
"Yes, it's the 'King of Killers'!"
