Elf Archer of Life in Another World
Chapter 22
"Where are the others? How come these are the only ones left?"
At an intersection not far from Tianhuo Tower, Helen glanced at the dozen or so people standing in front of her with an ugly expression and asked sternly. .biqugev
Scott already knew some of the situation and quickly stood up and explained.
"We didn't expect that the interrogation of foreigners like us in this Bagua City would be so strict. The remaining ones have been taken to the government to verify the information for the time being. They should be back soon."
"Temporarily? Should? Soon?" Helen glanced sideways, her eyes stayed on Scott's face for a second, then turned to the other holy mage in front of her, pointed with the staff in her hand, and said
"Tell me, what happened?"
The holy mage who was singled out was also a blond woman. She liked to imitate Helen's behavior and dress. Helen didn't care, but admired her very much.
"Following your instructions, we searched for Xingtianxia players and the elf in Bagua City. As a result, we met patrolling officers and soldiers who asked to see our ultimatum. The four of us were worried about causing some trouble and did not dare to say anything. He left after receiving the ultimatum, but "
The woman glanced timidly at the two paladins standing behind Scott, and continued under Helen's somewhat impatient gaze.
"However, when we were about to leave, Sam and Macaulay and five paladins happened to be nearby. They seemed to be dissatisfied with the interrogation. They seemed to have a conflict with the officers and soldiers, and then the three of them were taken away by the officers and soldiers. .”
"So, you women have been watching the behavior of those barbarians? You have never planned to come out to explain to us from the beginning to the end?"
The knight standing behind Scott said coldly that he was lucky to be let go by the officers and soldiers, but his other three brothers were taken away like prisoners by those hateful Chinese guards.
This is an insult they have never received before!
Paladins are a symbol of courage and loyalty on the continent of Gaia, and they are also the incarnation of the power given by God. Even if the princes and nobles of various countries see them, they must politely salute them and sincerely request them to stay. The royal palace, and is willing to promise a high position equivalent to an important minister of a country.
And after arriving here, these noble knights were actually ordered to be insulted by some lowly mortals, and they were actually helpless against these mortals because of the biased protection of the system. Obviously those people were so fragile that they could easily twist their necks off!
"We, we just want to think about it again. After all, Helen's instructions must come first, and you are indeed a little impulsive. Shouldn't we just let you undergo an examination?"
The woman was hesitant and vague about the part where the officers and soldiers forced these people to take off their armor and undergo inspection.
At that time, the four women were a little gloating about their misfortune, especially since they had actively invited these Paladin players to be their exclusive guardian knights and were rejected. At that time, seeing these arrogant guys being embarrassed in public, they all felt It was very enjoyable, and I secretly expected that these people could really take off the unsightly armor.
and--
"In that situation, if we really stood up and explained, we would probably have been arrested. Those Chinese officers and soldiers were obviously targeting us deliberately."
Having said this, the blond woman suddenly felt that her words made sense. Seeing Helen's worried expression, she raised her voice a little.
"Sir, I'm afraid we were targeted by those officers and soldiers. Not only did they interrogate each of us, they also seemed to deliberately annoy us and let some of us who were not calm enough to conflict with them, so that they would have an excuse to put those Take people away.”
Before Helen said anything, everyone else who heard this was a little dissatisfied. What does it mean to be someone who is not calm enough? Is it our own fault that we were interrogated and humiliated for no reason? Didn't we get a legal ultimatum? Since we all entered Bagua City legally and reasonably, why were we treated so lightly by the local police?
"Hmph! It turns out that we are a nation without awe in our hearts. Even the laws and disciplines can be trampled on so easily!"
"They still call us Fanbang Hu people. They are obviously ignorant mortals. How dare they threaten us, the noble priesthood, with swords?"
"So you just ran away in despair? Just because those mortals pointed their knives at you, you three weaklings couldn't wait to beg for mercy in a low voice?"
"You! What nonsense are you talking about! You were all beaten to the ground at that time, and you didn't even see how hard the three of us worked to persuade the officers and soldiers to let you go!"
"Are you trying to persuade me? I think you really want to break off the relationship with me, right?"
"You guys! I clearly saw you stuffing several handfuls of gold coins into the hands of those guards, but you are so contemptuous of yourself. Why do you have the nerve to talk about respect?"
"Then being pressed against the wall and searched by those officers and soldiers like you, don't you feel inferior to yourself? We are just using those useless things in the world to preserve our dignity as priests!"
"Useless things? Then don't feel bad! Is it your dignity to bargain with those officers and soldiers?"
……
"That's enough!! Shut up, everyone!"
Amidst the increasingly fierce accusations among the dozen or so people, Helen finally couldn't help shouting angrily, her voice a bit sharp.
Helen was a little frightened at this time, because she had discovered that this was a deliberately planned situation.
For every person who is arrested, there must be another group of people present who were unharmed at the time; for every person who is arrested, at least one person from the small group to which he belongs must have successfully escaped and observed the situation of the other group of people.
This "surviving" person may not necessarily resent those officers and soldiers, but he will definitely be dissatisfied with those who were lucky enough to watch indifferently, and will inevitably be dissatisfied with the commander who allowed them to disperse their actions.
Letting her subordinates compete with each other in small groups was originally a method that Helen was proud of to control her subordinates. However, the cold relationship that she deliberately guided now created the biggest crisis at this time.
Looking at the holy mages and paladins who had closed their mouths but still had a bit of contempt and resentment in their eyes, Helen was still elegant and calm on her face, but she was filled with regret in her heart.
In order to cover up the temporary embarrassment of being teased by Shi Sui, she temporarily issued this task to distract everyone, but she didn't want someone to take advantage of the loophole and take advantage of the local government...
It’s the year! It must be him! !
This must be his trick!
"I'm afraid this is all Xing Tianxia's conspiracy. Ever since we met at Shanmen, the president has been plotting against us."
Helen concluded lightly, her still elegant and steady voice seemed to be full of wisdom. Looking at the thoughtful people, she felt relieved and did not explain too much, but said
"Even if we didn't disperse and stayed together from beginning to end, we would probably be targeted by the local officials."
As if to confirm her words, hundreds of fully armed officers and soldiers suddenly poured out from the streets on all sides of this intersection, surrounding them.
For some reason, Helen felt relieved.
The leader looked at Helen and others arrogantly, snorted coldly, and asked
"What are you people doing here? You dare to gather so many people without permission and discuss our laws in public. Do you barbarians want to rebel?"
Being slapped with such a dangerous label for no reason, Helen, even though she was indirectly rescued by these people, couldn't help but curse her cruelly in her heart. Is this going to kill them? Could it be that you want them to leave here on their own?
But Helen was absolutely unwilling to just give up and leave in despair. She must walk up to Shi Sui, admire his regret, ruthlessly reject his apology and flattery, and finally give him her own forgiveness arrogantly.
"Hello, sir, we are just a mercenary group who have come here for the first time. We have made an appointment to meet with the president of Xingtianxia, so we stopped here for a while and waited for other companions to come and join us. As for any inappropriate remarks, this I’m afraid it’s some misunderstanding, we were just discussing some of the political situation of our country in Gaia.”
Helen calmed down her emotions, put on a faint smile, and took two steps. The silk robe on her body flowed from her waist to her legs with her steps, showing the charm of a mature woman.
Facing such a gentle-tongued beauty, the leading officers and soldiers no longer wanted to speak harshly, but nodded reservedly and replied.
"I've heard of the Xingtianxia guild. Since you said you have an appointment, why are you gathering here? Don't you still want to take the whole group to the appointment?"
Hum, they really want to use this method to weaken our numerical advantage! However, since we dare to bring only one person to the appointment, wouldn't it seem that there are too many people here but lack of momentum?
Helen smiled and replied, "We are ready to leave now. It is just an ordinary meeting. In fact, I am the only one needed. The others can continue to have fun in the city."
After saying that, Scott behind her had already stepped forward and commanded calmly.
"Knight Macaulay and I are staying here. Everyone else should disperse. Be careful not to cause trouble. You can find a place to rest and wait for those who have left temporarily."
Scott has seen Helen's reluctance and believes that having more people in today's meeting may not be more beneficial than having fewer people.
And...Scott looked at these people who had just accused each other and knew that even if they had conspiracy theories as an excuse, the conflict that had just broken out would not be wiped out so quickly. At this time, these people may not be able to Cooperated wholeheartedly.
Scott has always been by Helen's side and followed all Helen's instructions wholeheartedly. He is a well-known loyal warrior. His character is relatively modest and he often acts as a buffer between Helen and others. Therefore, he is very popular in the Order of the Rose. Reputation and popularity, as soon as his words came out at this time, those people immediately restrained their emotions, bowed to Helen and the others and dispersed. The officers and soldiers surrounding them did not make things difficult for them, and directly made way for them to leave. .
Helen left with Scott and Macaulay behind her, preparing to go to the Tianhuo Tower, but after taking a few steps, the three of them stopped and stared at the leading officers and soldiers with unkind expressions.
"What do you mean?"
Helen clenched the staff in her hand. The gems inlaid on the staff were shining, as if a terrifying storm was brewing.
The officer and soldier raised his eyebrows, smiled, and said in a rogue manner.
"Everyone from afar is a guest. We have just disturbed your enjoyment of enjoying the scenery. Now we naturally have to make up for it, so why not let us escort the three of you? And also stand guard at your meeting station? After all, I want you to There must be some little secrets you don’t want people to know, right?”
escort? Stand guard? Is this to monitor us all the time?
Helen suddenly became suspicious of the forces behind these officers and soldiers. Would Sui be willing to let so many irrelevant people intervene in their talks? Or is there someone else targeting the Knights of the Rose today?
Just thinking of this, a somewhat familiar man's voice suddenly sounded from outside the circle of officers and soldiers, saying with some surprise.
"Oh my, I was just wondering why I can't wait for Miss Helen. It turns out she is here!"
Helen turned around and saw that the man with the gourd hanging on his waist whom he had just seen this morning was Zang Jiu, the vice-president of Xingtianxia.
Only then did Zangjiu see clearly the situation of Helen and the others. He glanced at the officers and soldiers surrounding the three of them in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Are you acting, or do you really not know what these officers and soldiers did today? Helen, who had a clear view of Zangjiu's expression, thought about it in her heart.
"Um... My lords, this Miss Helen and her mercenary group have obtained passage certificates personally stamped by the imperial court. They are not illegal immigrants. What are you doing?"
Zangjiu asked cautiously.
"We just heard people talking about some foreigners derogating the National Master's decree on the street, and they were suspected of holding an illegal assembly, so we quickly brought people over. After all, this brother must also know the strictness of the ban on barbarism. .”
Facing Zang Jiu, who was also from China, the official's attitude immediately became amiable and he explained patiently.
"Who would have thought that we had indeed misunderstood, so we plan to escort this young lady and her entourage and temporarily protect their safety until they leave Bagua City, which can be regarded as an apology."
Have you ever expressed your apology in this way? ?
Zangjiu tried his best to swallow back the words that jumped to his lips, smiled heartily, and said
"That's really hard work, gentlemen, but there are only three of them. You..."
Are these more than a hundred people planning to build a mobile fortress by building personal walls?
"This can show our sincerity!"
The official also smiled heartily and didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all.
Zang Jiu knew in his heart that it was impossible to drive away these officers and soldiers, so he stopped insisting, pointed in the direction of Tianhuo Tower, and said
"Then I'd like you to take a few more steps. My guild president has reserved the Tianhuo Tower. If you don't mind, why don't you go over and have a rest?"
After that, Zangjiu pretended to lead the way and walked a few steps ahead of these officers and soldiers. He thought to himself that he was smart. At least it looked like he was leading a group of subordinates instead of being escorted as serious criminals.
Zangjiu tilted his head and glanced at Helen, whose face was ugly enough to drip with ink. He was even more fortunate that Sui had the foresight to let himself wander around Tianhuo Tower, maybe he could help rescue those in need.
And when he thought about Sanchi Shui, who had been sent out by Shi Sui to look around a long time ago, he was even more grateful that his task was quite easy.
Zang Jiu is not stupid. After thinking about the situation just now, he realized that these officers and soldiers were sent to deliberately cause trouble. As for who this person is...
Zangjiu glanced around cautiously.
Three feet of water, you guys have to work hard to stabilize that little girl. At least wait until Helen shows her trump card before letting her come out to make trouble. Otherwise, I will drown you with wine lees!
