Pastor's Tantra

Chapter 482 Mathers: I just said it casually

——With the character of that pillar god, no matter where they go next, the army will probably catch up with them.

After all, as Sherlock, he had to flee with Princess Isabel no matter what.

Since the necessary task is to escort Isabel, it means that they will definitely encounter danger. Possibly even the greatest danger.

But with the Grand Judge Shafiya following them, how can they encounter danger? If Aiwass also goes with him, he may take the guardian elf with him... If a lineup of this size will be in danger, then the consultant can only think of one possibility.

That was when the two prime ministers took action. Or there will be multiple fifth-level extraordinary beings arriving with the army.

Otherwise it would be unreasonable.

It was precisely because of this that he wanted to kill Isabel in the first place. In this way, he is freed from the shackles of his "Sherlock" role, does not have to perform his duties, and does not have to go on adventures with Isabel.

What if I killed Isabelle and stayed there?

He also has a mission called "The Day of Destruction is Coming" that requires him to stay on the glass island until the last day.

It's just the chaos of the throne change in Avalon. This kind of thing will definitely calm down in two or three days. So the "Day of Destruction" this mission refers to should refer to another thing.

For example...the complete destruction of the Glass Island.

Explain that something will definitely happen on the last day, so that everyone who stays on the Glass Island will encounter disaster.

And the consultant believes that other promoted candidates should also have this task.

The consultant also has another task, which is to assist the Great Guardian in commanding the Griffin Legion to complete the beheading operation.

Not to mention that he didn't understand the Griffin Legion at all - after all, the consultant was not a mage of the pure wisdom path, and he had never commanded a war. He had no idea about his command ability, and he didn't know whether it would bring the risk of exposure, or whether it would make the situation worse... so he decided not to touch it.

Both tasks are worth 500 points.

This shows that in the view of the Lord of Scale Feathers, the dangers brought by performing this mission are basically the same - keeping all the secrets and escaping safely from Drost's imprisonment and torture is only 200%.

But now it is obvious... If Isabel has this character, then the plan to assassinate her can be rejected directly.

She might even find out his identity the moment he has thoughts of murder.

The extraordinary intuition of the path of beauty is like this, difficult to deal with and unreasonable.

The advisor sighed silently.

...I never expected that as a senior member of the Star Antimony people, I would one day be chased by the Star Antimony people's army during the promotion ceremony.

After his body, which had become exhausted and weak after being tortured by Minister Drost, was healed by Aiwass, his energy was also replenished. The brain can finally function normally.

Then the counselor took a deep breath and called upon the power of the path of wisdom.

As blue flames ignited under his pupils, his brain felt cool, and his thoughts instantly became clear. The consultant entered a "super-intelligent" state and began to think quickly about strategies and sort out action plans.

——Although there are many tasks in this promotion ceremony, there are actually only three ways.

Evacuate with Isabel, stay on the glass island, and escape to the countryside.

The dangers they will encounter respectively mean "facing multiple fifth-level extraordinary beings"; "waiting for Star Antimony's army under the threat of the Balrog that may explode at any time"; "facing Star Antimony in an isolated and helpless state" army". There is no doubt that the third one is the safest and the most difficult to score.

As for whether to kill Isabel or not, it was actually just to gain the initiative to end the promotion ceremony. But if the number of survivors is less than six, the initiative can be transferred.

In this way, it is enough to kill one more promoted person!

Now two out of nine promoted people have been eliminated. Killing one more person will ensure that all the remaining promoted people can complete their promotion as long as they survive to the end.

So how can we ensure survival?

——There is only one answer, that is to help Isabel complete the Shadow of Avalon ritual.

If there was only one person left in Du Lac, the Avalon Ritual could be triggered...then now there are only two possibilities: it can already be triggered, and it can be triggered by killing Prince John.

What he pretended to be dazed and heard before was not only about the secrets of Avalon and Isabel.

It is the key clue to this promotion ceremony!

Information obtained by lurking through methods similar to "suspended death". This is exactly the way the Lord of Scale Feather likes to unfold the plot, and it is extremely consistent with the behavioral logic of adapting to the path.

Of course, you also need to avoid the possibility of point deductions.

If completing the Shadow of Avalon ritual is part of a certain initiate's mission... then as a ritual, it is most likely a mission beyond the path. And it must be the last task, which is the most difficult task. Because just getting this mission clue is already extremely difficult.

...Fortunately, I considered that there were enough demonologists in Xing Antimony, and the three paths that I rejected did not include the path of transcendence.

Then besides finding his two students and giving them this important information first...

There are three more things to do.

First, find "Olive", the promoted person who transcends the path, complete cooperation with him, and complete the Shadow of Avalon ritual within three days; second, convince Isabel to give them the Shadow of Avalon ritual, after all, it is his The overheard information meant that there was no way to go directly to her for specific details; thirdly, if no one had died by then, they would find a way to kill another promoted person.

——Olive is a suitable object.

Using the excuse of "silencing his mouth", he encouraged Isabel to kill him. With Isabel's deep character and ruthless methods, she would probably agree... This would easily complete the murder with a borrowed knife.

The dark blue flames under the consultant's pupils gradually dissipated.

He had a headache and rubbed his head, feeling that his brain became heavy.

...What is going on with this body?

He had only been in the super-intelligent state for a short while, and he felt like his head was going to explode... He usually had it on normally.

Isn't Sherlock's body too weak?

I haven't heard that he has any incurable disease...

He could only close his eyes, lie down again and rest for a while.

After only sleeping for a short while, he was woken up again by the sound outside.

The consultant quietly stood up and walked to the door, quietly listening to the sounds outside.

He soon realized that a person who absolutely should not have appeared at this time appeared——

"...Nobel, the court alchemist?"

The consultant murmured, his eyes widening in disbelief.

——Albert Lorey, is that you?

His most proud student, a genius whose talent in necromancy makes half the tutors in the ziggurat jealous... but he obviously lacks enough life experience.

You, a court alchemist, run to Moriarty Manor to find the princess.

Don't you think you are a bit stupid for saying this?

The princess is none of your business!

Nobel is a Star Antimony man!

You, a Star Antimony man, escaped safely from the burning palace of silver and tin when the queen was suspected of being assassinated by a Star Antimony man, and then you are looking for the escaped Princess Isabel...

...The only good thing is that because this move is too stupid, he should not be exposed.

But there is a possibility of being imprisoned - and being imprisoned means that he cannot continue to complete his mission. And it is even more dangerous if you are tortured... The authoritarian path has the ability to make people tell the truth, and it is easy to be tortured to reveal the truth about themselves as a promoted person.

Then something is going to happen.

It really gets me into trouble if I can't stand it for a while...

The consultant felt a little numb in the back of his mind.

...No, we still have to find a way to save him.

Thinking this, "Sherlock" cleared his throat and pushed the door open.

On the other side, Bishop Mathers also pulled Aiwass aside.

His expression was also obviously startled.

"...Why is Her Royal Highness really here with you?"

"What does it mean to be 'really' here with me?"

Aiwass raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice and asked, "What happened? Tell me in detail."

Bishop Mathers looked ugly: "Something may have happened, Aiwass...I will remember to lock up Master Nobel later.

"He told me what happened at the Palace of Silver and Tin. The front part was the same as what I knew, but there was a problem in the back part.

"The two princesses are obviously exactly the same. Why is he so sure that the one rescued by Ms. Shafia is the real princess? Moreover, he also tried to find the escaped princess... I felt that something must be wrong. So he took the Carter family's children with him. , tricked him into coming to you, and the result..."

——In the end, Princess Isabel is really here with you.

Bishop Mathers originally held the fragment of the Holy Sword and came out of the Candlestick Cathedral against the crowd, intending to go to the Palace of Silver and Tin to see the situation.

If the phantom that made him feel extremely dangerous was the legendary Balrog... it might require his self-sacrifice to drive the Balrog out of the material world.

"I really didn't know that Her Highness the Princess would be here..."

Bishop Mathers couldn't help but explain.

He felt aggrieved that he had told a lie casually, but ended up being the one who leaked the information.

He obviously really doesn’t know anything!
