Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 613 Request to meet the bishop
On May [-], the first day after the opening ceremony of the election, the second day of the blockade of Jupho Island.

The mist has spread to Ufo Island, and those islanders who don't know the details have only now seen what the so-called "fog" refers to.

Visibility is already less than 20 meters, and most people stay behind closed doors.The priests of the Harbor Temple patrolled back and forth, reciting "Sea Nerves" to calm the hearts of the people.

But the island's core, St Mill's Church on Scarborough Hill, is more chaotic than below.

Julius Levi is dead.

His last contact, Marcus Scotto, painfully announced the matter to the priests after being reviewed by the investigation team, and the two nuns were taken as suspects and imprisoned in the dungeon.

A few hours later, the review team began to "investigate" various missions--it said it was an investigation, but it was actually a blatant search.

As soon as the assault knight at the door opened the door, two Sea God Guards pushed their shields against the wall beside the door. He tried to resist, but more guards had already poured into the house.

"Don't move, don't move!"

"The special jury investigates, I hope everyone will cooperate!"

Several tall Sea God Guards exuded magic power, and the coercion made the knights who wanted to approach speechless at all—they were all professional-level Sea God Guards, and they were all high-level fighters of the Harbor Temple.

"We are the envoy of La Rochelle, you have to show us the least respect!" Knight Owen Lloyd yelled angrily at the nearest Poseidon guard, but the latter glanced at him sideways, and then disappeared from his sight——

"boom!"

The huge force hit Lloyd hard against the wall, and the Poseidon guard hit Lloyd's abdomen hard with his elbow, causing Lloyd to almost vomit on the spot in pain.He then grabbed Lloyd's shoulders with both hands, lifted him up halfway, and roared in a low voice:
"Men of La Rochelle, this is the Harbor Sanctuary, without you talking—"

Before the threatening words were finished, the Sea God Guard suddenly flew out, knocking down several Sea God Guards around him - the half-elf female swordsman with white hair and pointed ears rushed out from the side, Leaning against him sideways, and then pulling out the long sword from his waist, the ice crystals instantly sealed the Sea God Guard at the door.

"you!"

Several other professional sea god guards immediately drew their weapons and slashed towards the female swordsman.But Heloise was not afraid at all, the long sword seemed to be twisted in the air, and it stopped at the armpit of the nearest Sea God Guard in an instant.The Sea God Guard was horrified, completely unable to understand how she touched him, he could only watch the sword slanting upwards, about to chop off one of his arms——

However, a low, tide-like voice came from outside the door one after another, and it rushed to Heloise in an instant.The half-elf female swordsman immediately wanted to return her sword to block, but she was too late, she was slapped firmly by the sound wave, and she stumbled back.

She backed away until she bumped into someone.The sound wave still wanted to rush, but the hurricane had already blown from the house and collided with it.

For a moment, the room was filled with the sound of howling waves and wind, blowing so that everyone present thought they were in a storm at sea, and they were on the verge of falling—even the professional level was not much better in the collision of the wind and waves, but because The more one's own realm, the more one can feel the power of this.

When the wind and the waves retreated in tacit agreement, all the people present breathed a sigh of relief. Most of them had already collapsed to the ground without even knowing it.

Heloise tilted her head back slightly, only to see that it was Cyril Adrian who caught her and confronted the wave.

"It's all right." Cyril lowered his eyelids slightly, pulling himself out of the state of burning soul.He straightened Heloise, glanced at the knights at the door, and nodded slightly to them, indicating that they did a good job.

And the person who was making waves outside the door finally entered the house at this time.

Philip Benjamin.

Cyril squinted his eyes slightly. In the magic collision just now, he couldn't gain the upper hand at all, and he could even clearly feel that the opponent had spare power.

He thought he was fighting against a high-ranking professional, but it turned out to be an extraordinary "Philip Benjamin".

"Master Judge, what happened this early in the morning?"

He spoke as if he had never seen the other party last night.And Philip Benjamin waved to the people beside him, signaling them not to block the door so rudely, and then said slowly:
"Earl Adrian, do you know nothing about the island?"

"If your Excellency is referring to the fog, I think I should know."

"Of course not." Philip looked directly at Cyril: "Master Urella's loyal follower, Julius Levi, the backbone of the temple, we lost him."

Cyril's eyelids twitched, slightly surprised by the news.

Could it be that Evan Saxon dared to go back and kill Julius Levi after the guards gathered?

Then he is too bold.

"I'm sorry to hear about this." Cyril leaned forward and said, "So you bring people, do you want to search if there are any suspects among us?"

"Obviously," said Philip simply.

"I can go back with you to accept the inspection." Cyril thought for a while, and said simply, "But the search, I hope only one person will complete the search."

"Earl Adrian—" Philip frowned, and was about to say something, but Cyril directly interrupted him: "I don't like the attitude of your subordinates, if it wasn't for your Excellency, I would now challenge them one by one duel."

Those Sea God Guards glared at Cyril at the door, but with Philip Benjamin around, they could only glare.

Philip thought for a moment, nodded, and turned to the Sea God Guards behind him and said, "You guys follow to the side of Ao San Emma, ​​and La Rochelle can just let me come alone."

After receiving his order, the Sea God Guards retreated one after another.The knights quickly closed the door, leaving only Philip Benjamin in the house.

And Cyril's expression immediately became extremely serious. He stretched out his hand to lay down the sound-proof barrier, then stepped forward, and said softly:
"Julius Levi is dead?"

"I hope you didn't do this, Earl Adrian." Philip Benjamin's expression didn't change, "If this matter is related to you, then I will imprison you and Neil Alden together. Water prison, interrogate yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Cyril announce a name: "Marcus Scotto."

"Ok?"

"Marcus Scotto, he's a big suspect."

Philip's expression finally showed a slight change, and he couldn't help but speed up his speech: "Young man, I hope you understand what you are talking about."

"Marcus Scotto was impersonated by Alvin Saxon, and when he and Julius Levi were talking in the church courtyard, what Julius mentioned made Saxon shoot him , I saw it all."

Cyril spoke very quickly, and then grabbed Philip's arm: "I ask to meet the bishop."

"Her Majesty has no time..."

"Your Excellency Philip Benjamin, I don't think there is anything more important than solving Alvin Saxon. If he is allowed to continue to act, Urella may lose more than just a follower of Julius Levi."

The young man stared into the eyes of this extraordinary ascetic monk, locked his gaze, and at the same time bombarded information into Philip Benjamin's head:

"We found out that Alvin Saxon is a half-orc. Out of hatred for his own identity, he treats half-orcs as slaves. And what he wants is not just a port mafia, he wants more——

Sandy Marion, behind him there were more than one congressman including Sandy, Mrs. Dolores may be his opponent, so he was the first to die at the opening ceremony.More people will die next.

He may have abilities beyond your imagination, and maybe the divine punishment you think is all his means—if you don’t want to see another sister like yours pushed out as a sacrifice—”

Philip's eyes trembled, and he began to avoid Cyril's gaze, but Cyril raised his voice so that he had to look directly at himself:

"I want to meet the bishop, immediately, immediately."

Philip Benjamin's lips trembled, and he seemed to want to say something, but in the end it just turned into a sigh in the sea breeze.

"I will fight for this opportunity for you."

He turned around and faced the door: "Come with me."

Cyril turned around and explained the matter to the people behind him for a while, exhorted him not to act rashly, and then followed Philip Benjamin out of the room.

As soon as they walked out of the enclosure of the sound-proof barrier, they heard a loud noise—of course the noise did not come from the Nudarians, because they were invited into the confinement room yesterday, and of course only the Ao San Emmas were left up.

Cyril looked at another house tens of meters away, which was the resting place of the people of Ao San Emma. At the moment, the door was surrounded by sea god guards, and they formed a circle, as if someone was wrapped in the middle .

From time to time, there was the sound of weapons colliding in the circle, followed by the Sea God Guard being sent flying and falling to the ground—this circle was just slowly moving towards the direction of St. Mir's Church, looking extremely helpless.

Philip Benjamin frowned deeply, he took a step forward, and in an instant there was another sound.The Sea God Guards backed away knowingly, and immediately exposed the people surrounded by them in front of Cyril and Philip.

Four warriors holding long swords guarded Pelagius Heris in the middle, and the prince of Saint Emma walked leisurely in the middle of the encirclement.At this time, the sound roared, but Pelaggios didn't even look at it, and just threw a ring from his arms.

But there was a sound of "buzz", the wave hit the barrier invisible to the naked eye, a ripple appeared in the air, and finally subsided, but the ring shattered with a bang.

Philip Benjamin stopped the offensive. Looking at the broken ring, he couldn't help but snorted coldly:
"Is the protection of the gods used in this kind of place? It's worthy of you, the people of Austrian Saint Emma."

"It's absurd." Pelaggios seemed not to hear the sarcasm in Philip's words, and bowed: "I don't know if your Excellency the judge can excuse me and send me to meet the crown?"

"You want to see Your Majesty too?" Philip couldn't help but asked in surprise. He looked at the half-elf boy beside him, as if he wanted to ask with his eyes if the latter also appeared in yesterday's chaos.

And Pelaggios' eyes also fell on Cyril, and then he showed a joyful smile: "Ah, it seems that Earl Adrian and I coincidentally, and we happened to beg to see His Majesty together, so as to save the crown I'll be busy twice next time—Master Judgment, you probably won't refuse."

Cyril was thinking about Pelaggios' intentions, but his eyes were observing the four swordsmen beside him—the four swordsmen seemed to be young, at most 40 years old, and each of them was restrained. The sword in his hand was flickering with cold light. If Cyril read it correctly, the four swords should be the "four-pointed star" of Ossa Emma——

The "Four-pointed Star" Juggernaut is a well-known figure of Ao Sheng Emma.The four swords held in their hands were engraved with a resonance circle when they were forged, and when the four swords were ready, the four of them would receive the bonus of the spell "God's Blessing".

Blessed by God, this spell was inscribed by the Bishop of the Primordial Church of Ao St. Emma himself. Its power can almost instantly increase the combat power of the subject by several times.

Even if the magic circle engraved on the sword would reduce the effect of the spell a little, but after the four professional-level swordsmen who cooperated with each other got the bonus, the combat power they could unleash could almost sweep an army.

Cyril also guessed why the dignified prince of Saint Emma didn't have a well-known guard by his side, but he didn't expect that Emma simply hid the four-pointed star sword master beside Pelaggios.

He couldn't help but feel that the matter was getting more and more difficult-if the people of Ao San Emma simply sent a mission to the Port of New Orway without any preparation, it meant that they only regarded this matter as an ordinary diplomatic visit. any flower head.

But at this moment, they let the prince go into battle in person, the four-pointed star sword master, and the Paladin-class dreadnought battleship—God knows what the people of Aosheng Emma are planning?
What else are they hiding?
Philip Benjamin was still hesitating. After all, the matter of Alvin Saxon pretending to be a high-ranking member of the temple was an absolute secret, and it was not information that could be shared with the people of St. Emma.

And if His Majesty receives the Prince of St. Emma and the Earl of La Rochelle at the same time, it is hard to say whether Cyril will have the opportunity to send his information smoothly and impress His Majesty.

But at this moment, Pelaggios' voice floated slowly again:

"If you think that the fog can be easily broken by the power of the Harbor Temple, then you can drag it slowly—"

"But I don't think that Scarborough Mountain will be safe and sound after those Poseidon cannons fired together for a few rounds-maybe it will sink Uval Island?"

Philip's color changed drastically, and Pelaggios let out a chuckle of victory, and asked again:

"Your Excellency Philip Benjamin, what do you think?"
