The bone of sin domain is king

Chapter 59 Nine Scenes. Counting the Battlefield
It wasn't until Rosen completely disappeared from people's sight that Gascoigne let out a deep breath. The exhaustion from the battle and the pain surged up at the same time, making him a little unsteady in standing.

"Lord Gascoigne, be careful"

Grandia supported the old knight, she asked with lingering fear, Rosen rescued her twice, and walked away directly twice, which made the noble daughter even more incomprehensible about the action mode of the undead.

"Ahem, let's ignore him. If he ignites this fire, Ultramarine Fortress will not have to worry about the invasion of the demonic tide for a long time in the future."

Gascoigne coughed twice and looked at the raging flames.

"This is a huge opportunity for Bunajin. We must return to Bunajin as soon as possible to inform the lord."

Once this ancient fire was ignited, it directly connected the Ultramarine Fortress and Bunajin's Land of Order. In other words, even if there were no embers of the First Fire, people could freely enter and leave the fortress and the Evernight Forest.

The treasures contained in the Evernight Forest are huge. Not to mention the demonic materials, just the corpses of monsters that have not been burned are a huge wealth. And the amount of these things is so large that even if they are added If Scoyne immediately sends out all the guards to collect and search, it will be difficult to obtain them all in a short time.

Once the storm on the wall of the sky subsides, outsiders will soon know that there have been changes here. By then, not only mercenaries will come to seek opportunities.

At least in Gascoigne's imagination, the people from Reggios would definitely try to get involved here, not to mention that there might be more cultists mixed in among them, which is what needs to be guarded against the most.

"Clean the battlefield and count the dead."

Gascoigne looked at the injured people supporting each other in the square, ordered the guards around him, and then called over Kahn who had finished treating the wounds.

"Kane, take someone to escort Miss Grandia back to Bunajen as quickly as possible, and notify the lord to send troops to garrison here, and at the same time be on guard against Reggios' movements."

"As ordered."

Kahn nodded, he glanced at the direction Rosen was leaving, and asked hesitantly.

"About Rosen."

"Let's report the matter of Rosen to the local church. No matter who he is or what he has done, the undead are enemies to humans. Leave the rest to the night watchman."

Gascoigne sighed softly. If Rosen was not an undead but a real Gray Knight, then a clergyman who has progressed so rapidly would be a rare treasure for the Holy Church and Order.

But Rosen is an undead, which makes Gascoigne sigh.

But the old knight has no right to deal with it. For a bronze-level undead, an old man like him at the peak of black iron can't do much.

The work of searching and counting the dead proceeded very slowly. The mercenaries and guards in the Ultramarine Fortress were alright, and they had rosters to count them. As for the mercenaries in the Evernight Forest when the demon tide came, it became troublesome.

Due to the chaotic scene, they could only rely on mutual confirmation of their companions to calculate the number of dead, but many adventurer teams disappeared completely, and even the corpses could not be found.

As for the search work, Gascoigne gave priority to people searching around the core hall, but there had already been a second collapse due to the self-destruct of the Winter Wolf Lord, and it was impossible to get through for a while, and Xerath's whereabouts became a problem. unsolved puzzle.

But soon, Grandia saw a familiar guy.

It's Verus, or part of Verus' corpse.

This unlucky noble son happened to run into a small group of bloodthirsty beasts when the demonic tide came. Most of the guards were taken away by Xerath. Verus only relied on Talon's protection and could not hold on for long. When he was discovered by the guards, he had already It became seven pieces of meat and could only be identified clearly by relying on its clothing.

As for the lightning sword Talon, he is missing. Gascoigne speculates that he may also be a member of the cult.

Almost all the mercenaries accompanying Bunajen were killed in battle. Except for Netherland who was killed by Rosen for his rebellion, and Carlock and Lance who were killed by the winter wolf lord, the rest were fighting against monsters. died in the process.

The only exception is Lina, the alchemist who disappeared when the magic wave first appeared, and the body was not found until the end, so the situation could not be confirmed.

In the evening, Grandia finally set foot on the way home. The previous experience was like a dream. The noble daughter was still reminiscing about the adventures of her narrow escape. A little more curious.

Reggios City, late at night.

What happened in Ultramarine Fortress did not reach Reggios until midnight, but Baron Bronn Aatrox did not rush to send troops to seize resources, and did not even shed a tear for the death of his son.

In the room illuminated by the candlelight, the gray-haired baron had an uncertain face. He was sitting behind the desk, and Xerath was standing in front of him.

Xerath didn't seem to have any damage. He used the expensive transfer crystal to find what he wanted and then returned to the teleportation point outside the Evernight Forest, so he returned to Reggios early.

"did you find it?"

Baron Aatrox asked, his voice hoarse, and there was a huge difference from the past.

"I found it. Under the tomb of the wolf shepherd, there is indeed a sacred relic of the goddess hidden."

There was no respect in Xerath's tone, as if Baron Aatrox was equal to him, he took out a box wrapped in linen, and opened it gently.

That's a ring.

Candlelight flickered on the gold-plated surface, and the complex patterns formed a sentence of inscriptions on the inner ring of the ring. The whole ring exuded a sense of sanctity and solemnity, and it was an extraordinary item at first glance.

"This is the holy relic, one of the twelve ashes rings left by the goddess."

Xerath said, he put the ring back into the box and put it in his arms carefully.

"It's not in vain that I've been pretending to be the foolish Baron for so long."

Baron Aatrox smiled and said in a distinctly different voice.

"Xerath, the mission has been completed, we can evacuate now."

"Naturally, it's just the swordsman I met in the fortress."

Recalling the scene he saw in the core hall, Xerath was still a little scared. If he hadn't been lucky enough to enter the lower tomb, if he really wanted to confront the swordsman named Rosen head-on, he really wouldn't have to. The grasp of victory.

He also wanted to discuss about Rosen with his companion who was pretending to be Baron Aatrox, the man named "Thousand Faces", when Xerath was about to speak, he heard a stern shout from outside the window.

"Who are you, how dare you break into the baron's mansion!!!?"
