The knight in the abyss

Chapter 284 Celestial Language

The group of soldiers walking towards the crowd was about five feet tall, with silver-white hair, shining eyes, machetes at their waists, and longbows on their backs.From the outside, they look like elves, but they are much stronger than guys like Aramir.Despite this, their movements are still agile and graceful, like vigorous cheetahs, especially after seeing that there is a succubus among the people coming.

The guards with silver hair separated like flowing water, tightly surrounding everyone.Lancelot noticed that the color of their pupils had changed. At the moment, they were as red as a flame burning in their eye sockets. Obviously, they were not very happy to see a succubus.

"Dongquan, Lilu?" The leader of the guards asked in surprise, staring at Helotesia behind the two children, "Devil! How dare you..."

"No, no, don't get me wrong, Akash, she's not an enemy..." Several of the red flame angels had already turned back into human form, and Cumberland, who first met Lancelot and the others, spoke eagerly, " Li Lu, Dongquan, you two come here quickly..."

Lancelot and his partners looked at each other, and waited helplessly.Cumberland explained the situation of Elotesia to the group of town guards, while Dongquan and Lilu added as witnesses.

At the beginning, the Aras were still talking in the common language that Lancelot could understand, but as the silver-haired guard asked one question after another, the two sides switched to another language while talking.That kind of language is light and elegant, as tactful as a song, and it is probably the Celestial language commonly used in the upper planes.

But it's a pity that Lancelot couldn't understand at all, and the singing-like tone made it impossible for him to judge the direction of the conversation from the tone.Just when he was feeling a little bored, Cromwell suddenly activated the telepathic connection, and Lancelot was able to understand what the love assassins were talking about.

"You can even understand Celestial Language?" Lancelot asked the skull in surprise, "Is this the effect of some kind of magic?"

"No, this must be a language I used to be very proficient in." Cromwell denied, "I'll talk about my business later, boss, you should listen to their conversation first."

"Are you saying that these mortals are a group of mercenaries?" The silver-haired Era, named Akash, asked in a bad tone, "The kind of guy who sells his strength for dirty gold?"

Lancelot's face immediately became a little uneasy, but there was nothing he could do. What the other party said was indeed true, although he thought that none of the commissions he had completed so far had broken through his inner moral standards.

"That's right, but they did rescue Lilu and Dongquan." Cumberland argued, "I believe you can also see that they are not evil people..."

"No, I didn't see that kind of thing, I just saw them!" Akash interrupted the other party's speech, "What's the matter with that succubus?"

"She is a paladin, you and I both know what it takes to be a paladin..."

"How can you be sure? Did she perform the Smite Slash in front of you?"

"I don't think that's necessary...but Winterspring saw her kill a troll with a single blow from Smite Slayer, and healed her own wounds with Lay on Hands."

"That's just a one-sided opinion of the children. And are you sure that their memories have not been tampered with by magic?" Dongquan's protest from the side was ignored, "God, Cumberland, you are not bewitched, are you? "

"What nonsense are you talking about, our love assassins are born with the effect of countering evil..."

"Maybe she's very powerful..." The silver-haired Aira quickly swiped a finger, and then pointed at Cumberland's feet, "Tease your mind!"

A sober green halo appeared at the feet of the red flame angel, and Cumberland in the center of the halo looked quite helpless.

"..."

"How about it, did you realize that you were charmed just now?"

"In the name of the Queen, Akash, why are you branis so stubborn!" Cumberland shrugged helplessly, and gestured his hands to the two love-loving children beside him, "Look at the Lilu and Winterspring, they're all back intact, is there any stronger evidence than that?"

"Maybe that old woman Cang Ye deliberately let them back for a bigger conspiracy. In any case, the mages will thoroughly check their bodies and minds, read their memories, and any unreasonable places will be noticed immediately... ..."

"I have no objection to this, but until your suspicion is proven, Miss Helotesia and her mercenaries should be treated as guests..."

"She's a demon!" The silver-haired Akash's voice was significantly higher, "Do you think a succubus should be allowed to walk freely on the streets?"

Hearing this, Lancelow's heart suddenly moved.He turned his head to look at Helotesia, the succubus didn't seem to have any expression on his face, but Lancelot's spiritual sense showed that the succubus was actually in a very bad mood at the moment, and was trying his best to keep his face expressionless.

It suddenly occurred to him that the lover of the succubus paladin was also an angel, and the two had lived together in the material plane for many years. Elotesia should be able to understand Celestial Language, right?From Lancelot's point of view, it's fine for his group not to be treated like heroes, but it's too unfair to be so suspected because of their race and identity.

The discussion between the two love assassins with different hair colors is finally coming to an end. The final conclusion is that the succubus and her mercenaries can rest in the town and will always be under strict surveillance.Early the next morning, the Guardians of Edudon's Bounty will send a team to 'escort' the group to Melendumbo, and it will be up to the generals to decide the fate of the succubus themselves.

Cumberland immediately relayed this decision to everyone, but his wording was very tactful, repeatedly emphasizing that this was because most of the residents of the town had never seen a succubus, and they might make irrational actions.

"I understand." Elotesia spoke, speaking in Celestial Language. "Thank you for defending me just now. I'm glad someone can judge me for what I do, not my race."

Lancelot raised his eyebrows unexpectedly. He thought that the succubus was going to swallow this anger. It seems that even if he changed the moral camp, his temper would not change along with it.

When she opened her mouth, the expressions of the two lovers were very wonderful.Akash's face quickly turned as red as Cumberland's hair, who was also full of embarrassment.The behavior of the two of them just now was too inappropriate, and compared with the restraint of the succubus paladin, it seemed even more disrespectful.

　Thanks to the book friend kingkiller for the reward, and everyone who voted for recommendation!It's late again, sorry!It took a long time today to set the official setting of the race of eladrin, but I found that I jumped into a big pit. In the third edition, Eladrin was still considered as one of the three great celestial races. How did he become a high elf again in the fourth edition?Why did the fifth edition become Elling again and move to the Fairy Wilds?In the end, I found that there were too many bugs, and the explanations were convoluted and complicated, so I completely gave up the effort to strictly follow the official settings. Book friends later found out that it was different from the official settings, and the author's private settings shall prevail. The 3rd version is the main one, and the 5th version can be used if it does not conflict) Book friends who are familiar with dnd settings must understand my pain
