Nightmare Card House

Chapter 405: Rumors

This was how the Holy Court once incited the civilians and nobles to oppose themselves, claiming that the undead crisis was coming, and that only by building a church in the city could they resist the undead.

Now that the undead crisis has been lifted, we need to trick the Holy Court and drive them completely out of Harbor City, so that they will never pay attention to Harbor City again!

The steward lowered his head respectfully upon hearing this, "Yes! Lord City Lord, I will let the people below do it."

It is not false that the Lord of Xiboer City has been operating in the city for many years. Soon, this piece of news spread out, and with the help of caring people, it spread rapidly.

"Have you heard? Those undead people outside are caused by people from the Holy Court."

"In order to resist the undead, the Lord of the City personally led the soldiers into the desolate land of the undead last night, fought fiercely with the undead creatures all night, and sacrificed the lives of thousands of soldiers before completely annihilating the skeletal creatures and protecting the harbor city. Safety."

"I've heard about it too. It's said that the Desolate Land is extremely dangerous. Even the city lord was seriously injured when he came back and almost died there..."

"No way? Even the Lord of the City..."

"You said that the desolate land was created by the paladins of the Holy Court? Isn't the Holy Court incompatible with the undead?"

"I didn't believe it at first, but you don't think there is such a coincidence. Harbor City has been peaceful for hundreds of years, and the undead incident happened just after the people of the Holy Court came here. Who else could they have provoked?"

"It seems right..."

"What those people in the Holy Court said are all lies. Didn't they say that only by building a church and believing in the Holy Light can these undead creatures be expelled? Look, the undead have not been eliminated by the heroic and capable Lord of the City."

"Indeed, it seems that the Holy Court is deceiving us."

"But why did I hear that the Desolate Land was stimulated by the Holy Court and awakened the evil stone statues sleeping in the swamp area, which caused such a big reaction..."

Several nobles were discussing enthusiastically when they saw a group of noisy civilians gathering outside the window and heading towards the west of the city.

"what are they doing?"

A waiter came up and replied respectfully, "Sir, they went to the Holy Court to protest. I heard that as long as the people in the Holy Court do not leave Harbor City, the desolate land will come back. Now the city lord has suffered. Seriously injured, if the undead really comes back, no one will be able to help us."

The young noble clenched his fists, feeling humiliated. He knocked on the table and said loudly, "I knew it! Everything was the shit done by those Holy Courts, and I couldn't sleep well for several days. Let’s go! Let’s put pressure on the city lord to get the Holy Court out of our harbor city.”

The gate of the courtyard where the Holy Court stayed at odd hours was closed tightly. The curses coming from outside the door and the sound of rotten eggs smashing on the door made the several Paladins standing at the entrance of the small courtyard turn blue.

They had never experienced such an insult. During this period, they had obviously tried their best to protect these civilians from being harmed by the undead, but they ended up like this in just a few days.

In the room, Arthur paced back and forth anxiously.

In comparison, Noelt could feel at ease. He sat quietly on the chair and watched Arthur walking back and forth in front of him.

"Something must have happened." Arthur stopped, looked back at Noelt, and suppressed his anger, "Didn't you promise me that there will be no problem with the Bone Golem! Now! Why! Do you still have the heart to sit here? Why don’t you think of a solution!”

"Don't be impatient." Noelt waved his hand slowly, "I made a miscalculation. I didn't expect that the city lord still has some abilities."

Seeing the calm Bishop Noelt, Arthur's eyelids twitched. He couldn't help the anger that surged in his heart. He rushed forward and grabbed Noelt's clothes, "Are you still here now?" Are you thinking about this!? If something goes wrong with the Bone Golem, have you considered the consequences?"

Bishop Noelt waved his hand, and a soft power of holy light pushed Arthur away.

"Arthur, don't let anger affect your mind. You know how much effort it took the Holy Court to seal the Bone Golem. Do you think a mere city lord is capable of sealing the Bone Golem?"

"How do I know? What if! Besides, how do you explain what is happening now! Who else besides us knows that those boxes contain bone golems? Why do rumors outside mention stone statues and bones? Words like that?" Arthur couldn't help but raise his voice a bit, even a little more panicked, "They must have found the Bone Golem. I told you before that the Bone Golem is too dangerous! No! We simply cannot afford such a risk!”

"Don't worry, I think he must have used something to temporarily resist the power of the Bone Golem." Noelt seemed very confident. He raised his head and said, "There are too many people outside now and it is difficult to move. Wait a little longer and let’s go to the Land of Desolation together after dark tonight to confirm the condition of the Bone Golem with our own eyes.”

Arthur clenched his fist, stared at Noelt, and warned: "You'd better pray that there is no problem with the Bone Golem, otherwise I will truthfully report what you did to the Inquisition, and you will be hanged! "

Noelt glanced at Arthur and said calmly, "You wouldn't do this. You are also an accomplice, Arthur."

"No, I will, Noelt, I swear, I am willing to repent, even if I go to the gallows with you, I will report you!"

In the desolate land, Fang Tian has been waiting here for a long time.

He was sure that the people of the Holy Court would come to check the situation here, especially after he asked Altori to send people to spread the rumors about the golem.

Instead of going to the Holy Court, it is better to stay here and wait for them to come.

Perhaps this is the reason for waiting for the rabbit to come.

After all, Fang Tian didn't think that he could get anything out of the people of the Holy Court by running over eagerly.

Since the fourth stage of immortality, Fang Tian could feel that the breath of the undead on his body was heavier than before. If he sneaked into the courtyard where the Holy Court was temporarily staying like last time, he would probably be discovered from a long distance.

Fang Tian had to prepare for a fight.

After all, this was a desolate and corrupt place, and he had the advantage of fighting at home, which greatly improved his combat ability.

But what made Fang Tian feel troubled was that he waited for a long time but did not wait for the arrival of the Holy Court.

Since the time in the shadow world was limited, Fang Tian had to interrupt once and return to the card hall.

As soon as the cooling time was over, Fang Tian immediately returned to the Shadow World, praying that he would not be so unlucky. Unfortunately, the Holy Cross Church took advantage of this time to come to the Desolate Land.
