Working Prophet.

Chapter 333 New Army
"Don't you guys understand me?" Constantino said angrily, "Now I can send you all to the dungeon in Multiscale City with just one word, and maybe even send you to meet your friends." God."

"You must help us enter the city, because this is what you owe to Sir Ilea." Redio said suddenly.

Hearing these words, Constantino's face became very ugly, his neck and face were completely red, and his whole body looked like a volcano about to erupt.

Seeing this, Tom on the side quickly changed the topic, "We didn't go to the city to cause damage or trouble your father. I can swear to Saturday about this."

"Then why are you going to the city?"

"Looking for someone, our person was kidnapped about two months ago. According to the information we have received so far, she is likely to be in the multi-scale city."

Constantino's expression softened a bit, but he was still skeptical, "Kidnapping? The law and order in Multiscale City has always been good, and such cases rarely happen..."

In the middle of the speech, he paused again, and continued after a while, "You shouldn't have chosen this time, the high priest Herodotus is recruiting people and training them into soldiers, and now almost all the fanatics in the western region are gathered in the scale city.

"I'm not trying to scare you. If they find out your identity, it may not be easy for you to enter the dungeon."

"Saturdays never give up a believer," said Tom.

"If you insist." Constantino sighed, and finally compromised, "Come with me, go into the city, and I'll give you a replacement pass, and you'd better leave immediately after finding your people. "

"Thank you, what Sir Ilea said is true, you are indeed a nobleman with noble character."

After all, Constantino was only a young man. After being flattered by Tom like this, the group of Saturday believers in front of him didn't seem so hideous.

Well, except for a guy who is thin and thin, but has a small belly.

With the sheriff's son leading the way, the group was not blocked by anything after that, but what they saw after entering the city surprised Tom.

The last time he came to Duolin City was two years ago. Although the Duolin City was not as lively and prosperous as Yanxue City at that time, it was still a first-class city in the western region.

Moreover, as the birthplace of the Silver Moon Church and the seat of the Holy See, this city has the most priests and high priests in the western region.

There are very few thieves and criminals. Walking on the street, everyone has a kind smile on their faces.

But after two years, Tom returned here again, feeling completely different.

There were not many pedestrians on the road, and everyone lowered their heads and walked in a hurry, as if something was chasing them behind them.

Most of the shops are closed, and some are open, but the inside is empty, clean without even a straw.

Tom even saw several burned houses and shops.

"What happened here?"

Before Constantino could answer, a group of men in linen knee-length tunics with hoes, sickles and daggers in their waists rushed out of a tailor shop.

The man who came out first grabbed a woman by the hair and dragged the latter a dozen steps away.

The latter was struggling and howling, but the group of men in sackcloth remained unmoved, and some people stretched out their legs and kicked the woman's abdomen twice.

Seeing this scene, Constantino couldn't help being furious, flattered his horse and rushed over, shouting loudly, "You bastards, what do you want to do in broad daylight?!"

However, when faced with the questioning of the magistrate's son, the group of men in sackcloth did not show much panic, nor did they run away, just standing where they were.

He looked at Constantino calmly.

"At the order of the church, we are arresting spies in the city." A man with a mouthful of rotten teeth said so.

"Tailor Grace has lived in Multiscale City for more than 30 years. Her tailor shop is well-known. How could she be a spy?"

"Martina betrayed the church, anyone could be a spy," the man with rotten teeth said flatly, "including you and your father."

"You actually questioned my father's honor. If you dare to say it a second time, I will fight you!"

Constantino drew his family sword.

The man with rotten teeth looked at his sword, then at Tom and his party behind him.

"If your father was here, he would not have acted so recklessly." After speaking, he sneered twice, loosened Grace's tailor's hair, and left the street with the others.

"Thank you, Lord Constantino. If I hadn't met you, I would be in danger today." The woman climbed up from the ground with difficulty while clutching her belly, thanking her.

"These bastards!" Constantino clenched his long sword tightly, his knuckles turned white from too much force.

"Who were those just now?"

Seeing that the turmoil subsided, Tom and the others also drove over in the carriage, the captain of the Black Dog Guard asked curiously.

"The new army recruited by Herodotus." Constantino gritted his teeth, "It's these guys who made the multi-scale city a mess, and now the big guys are afraid to go to the streets."

"The new army? Are those people?" Tom was surprised. "I think their weapons and equipment are not as good as the militia in the country."

"Herodotus recruited about 3000 people before, almost all of whom were untrained farmers, while the high priest Martina had an army of [-], most of whom were elites from major families. Join, there are rumors that the number of cathars has exceeded [-].

"In order to appease the hearts of the people in the city, Herodotus further relaxed the conditions for recruiting soldiers. Now even beggars and thieves can join the new army, and the number of new troops exceeded 2 overnight.

"The city didn't have so many weapons for them, so Herodotus asked these people to bring their own weapons. The church gave some money, but it was not enough to pay everyone's salary, so Herodotus let these people in Judgment in the city.

"Arrest and rob heretics, but there are not many heretics in the multi-scale city. Most of the people here are believers of Pythia. Later, Herodotus asked the new army to catch spies in the city, which is called coordinated defense. , and now there are even more unlucky people."

"Those bastards set fire to many places in the city the night before yesterday," Constantino said angrily. "I don't know how many honest citizens have died because of their homes. These guys are worse than locusts."

"Sir Ed didn't say anything, Multiscale City is his fief."

"Sir Ed hasn't left his mansion for several days, and not only that, he also transferred most of the guards in the city to guard his residence." Constantino said expressionlessly.
