Chapter 401 Dust Settled (33)

Never has a single night been so long for the inhabitants of Ryonland.

Under the demonstration of the nuns of the Huaiguang Church and the chief steward, Moda, all the plots and darkness that Baron Laian hid in his ancient castle were revealed, and some mysteries that had puzzled the people living in this land for a long time Both the incident and the disappearance are now explained.

But compared to hatred, anger and fear, they are more at a loss, and knowing the truth does not make them happy.

Instead, feel hesitant.

——The baron made a big mistake, and now he has escaped, so who will be the next owner of Leonland?
—Will he maintain the subsidy and allow them to continue living like this?
——The descendants of the mountain people and the empire have ended their rule in this land. Does this mean that there will be cracks in the loyalty of the mountain people?
The uncertain future makes everyone worry.

Until the two holy knights riding horses galloped all the way to the sea of ​​flowers.

The light of the dawn and the glowing grass shone on their pure white armor, reflecting a beautiful golden red, and the sun was like a jewel, embedded behind them.

After receiving the call for help from their companions, the two temple enforcers 'Redemption' and 'Bright Sword' rushed over overnight, braved the torrential rain and thunder, and finally arrived at dawn.

Not too early, not too late.

They were greeted by Sister Light Reflection, who was also pregnant with light, and a guide knight from Port Harrison who assisted her.

The arrival of the executors of the temple quelled the panic in the city. The two second-level powerhouses took out all the bones under Huahai, purified the blessings, and then carefully searched for every trace of the ancient castle in Lai'an. Finally, under the guidance of the guide knight, he was going to go to the surrounding area of ​​Lone Flame Peak to search for the possible whereabouts of the baron.

The two temple executors thanked and left.

Now that the general destination has been determined, it is very simple for them to search, and in a short time, they came to the third barrier lake.

When they came to the scene of the battle, which was covered by heavy rain and mud, it was already a mess, and they couldn't help frowning.

"Didn't Yingguang say that she was searching for traces of a cult? This doesn't look like a cult sacrifice, but rather a biological or psychic experiment."

The one who spoke was a tall knight with black hair and dark brown eyes. Her voice was loud and clear, and her figure was so strong that even the armor of a temple executor, which could accommodate a two-meter-tall man, seemed a bit narrow.

And judging from the high horns on her helmet, it can be known that this is a Minoan Asian.

Minoans (horn people) are extremely tall regardless of men and women, able to withstand the recoil of the continuous firing guns controlled by ordinary people, and their melee combat ability is even better. The weapons they use are giant weapons for ordinary people. Weapons they can wield with one hand, or even dual wield.

But because of this, life of Minoans is quite inconvenient, and they are always regarded as weapons of war. Only a very small number of Minoans have the opportunity to get a good education and become scholars and alchemists.

And clergymen are even rarer.

This is the case even if they are only Templar monks recognized by Huai Guang, rather than official priests who can go to the holy mountain.

"The two are not in conflict, but I think these are two separate incidents."

The person who answered was a knight of the White People who was equally tall but still inferior to his companions. He had a gentle face, white hair, and even more gentle and polite manners: "Look, Redemption, there is still a corpse over there."

"Look at that armor, a creation that imitates the carapace of a dragon ant. Does it remind you of something?"

"Ha, Gnosis Institute, it's good to die."

With a glance, the redemption executor immediately sneered, patted the horse under her, signaled it to move forward, and observed carefully: "Well... the skull was smashed, and the brain and blood were washed away... ..."

Raising his head, the redemption executor looked at the cultivation warehouse not far away. Golden light shot out from the gap in the helmet, scanning the already cloudy culture solution: "Xiahuicao extract, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus ...Hey, are they going to refine the human body? Or are they going to decompose and destroy the corpses?"

"Hui Jian, do you analyze and analyze?" The resonant voice of the cow girl echoed in the valley.

Hearing the voice of his companion, the executor named Huijian also rode forward. He observed carefully, and then nodded: "According to the information provided by Yingguang, the guide knight, and Manager Moda, the body tissue fluid in these cultivation chambers It should be his adopted sons and daughters."

"As for the one in the middle, it should be the body of his dead son that he intended to make from a human body."

That being the case, many things are deduced.

"It seems that it is another conspiracy of the Institute of the Intellect - Baron Lean and them jointly carried out these plans. In the end, the two sides had conflicts, fought each other, and died together."

When Hui Jian said this, his tone was calm, and he nodded slightly when he glanced at the body of Baron Laian: "Look, the traces of this toxin are obviously unique to the Institute of the Intellect, and it couldn't be more obvious."

"No, it's not obvious." Zhuang Guang clicked his tongue, causing the surrounding air to vibrate visibly, and the horse also neighed: "They won't admit it—never."

"The armor and toxins of the dragon ants can't prove anything. Adventurers in the deep pit like this kind of equipment. One of my dwarf juniors has a set at home. It's almost exactly the same...except for the size."

"We don't need them to admit it, even if we don't have absolutely reliable evidence." And Hui Jian replied indifferently: "They need to explain to the imperial capital, we only need to condemn."

"Then that's it." He decided: "Condemn the empire's ineffective control of the nobles, condemn the malicious biological experiments of the Institute of the Intellect, and according to the 'Five Major Agreements', they must properly deal with the losses of all victims—ah, if they And relatives."

When he said this, Zhuang Guang was still carefully observing the traces on the ground.

She even turned over from the horseback, not shy about the dirt on the ground, and crawled on the ground, carefully searching for every trace of the earth and rocks being washed and flowed by the rain.

"Did you find anything? Is there any clue about Flame Land?"

Hui Jian was not surprised, but also got off his horse and knelt on the ground with his companion, searching for traces on the ground: "I don't have 'Secret Eyes of Seeking Blood', so I can't see those tiny traces."

"I did find some clues, but it wasn't the Flame Land. It was obviously a bait to divert attention... Well, Baron Ryan is not that strong, far from it. Hey, maybe he exploded because of anger?"

The tall Redemption Knight stood up, she was a head taller than Hui Jian who stood up together.

The Minoan executor laughed and said, "But I don't want to know the truth—I won't continue to investigate."

"Why?" the white-haired knight asked suspiciously—he asked, but with a smile on his lips.

Obviously business.

"Because I know the truth, when someone asks me, I have to say it, or I refuse to answer—the former is stupid, the latter offends people, and it's okay to say that they don't know, and they don't expect to hear from us. This is the answer, who called me a Minos."

The tall cow girl waved her hand, as if trying to repel some flies: "I really don't know what you serious priests do, don't lie-oh my god, it's scary just thinking about it."

"Haha, there is nothing we can do about it, but we have the right not to say it, and it is much better than many people." The executor of Huijian smiled gently: "This is actually why every time our temple executor The dispatch is the reason for the two partners to form a team."

"Also, there must be a non-staff who is not a clergyman."

"Huh." Hearing this, the executor of Redemption was stunned: "Isn't that because the founder of our Huaiguang and the popes of all ages are twins?"

"...This kind of statement is very romantic, and we all like it." Hui Jian paused, and said tactfully: "But it's just an excuse. You should read more of our scriptures and redeem the light, so you won't be able to pass the year-end assessment .”

"It's a trivial matter not to delay work and drink." Niu Nu laughed.

Using the camera crystal to record and record everything in front of them, and keep it as evidence, the two temple executors Ranguang and Huijian sorted out all the evidence at the scene.

When the dust settled, that was the end of the matter.

However, at the very end, the two executors were waiting for the city guards from Laian Territory to take the trailer and other tools to bring back the dead bodies and the training room.

Hui Jian turned his head slightly, looking at Baron Ryan's body.

His eyes glowed with white psionic halos.

【Ian...】

He whispered to himself: [In the process of witnessing...]

……

Ryan collar.

Leading his camel beast and carrying his luggage, Ian was saying goodbye.

　The Leian collar module is over, ask for a monthly pass!

Recommend a good-looking book "A Certain Unscientific Bourne Shadow"

Murphy was right -- what can go wrong will go wrong at the right time.

Don't be stubborn, but don't break your personality.

One time may be an accident, two times may be a coincidence, and three times must be the enemy's action.

Never underestimate a person's ability to distort reality in order to rationalize unacceptable reality, and use this to make your enemies think they made a mistake.

My job is to keep secrets, and I know that the nature of living things is to reveal them.

This is the story of a retired military intelligence officer who was forced to return to his old job after coming to a strange different world.
