God seal

"You seem surprised to see me."

The mage said, and glanced at the other party with eyes that were so light that there was almost no strength.

"I'll get my pay."

"Payment." The elf repeated the word, watching the mage with silver eyes, noticing that the mage no longer returned the same gaze as before.

"What do you want?" Salanduil asked, "as long as it doesn't violate the principles and the oracle of Eli."

Hearing the name Eli, the mage frowned in annoyance.His black eyes narrowed in displeasure, and an expression of displeasure appeared on his handsome face.

"Let's talk about it next time." The mage turned and left suddenly, as if he completely forgot that he was the one who took the initiative to mention this matter, "Anyway, I won't charge you interest, Elf."

I have never seen such a willful guy, appearing without authorization, and leaving inexplicably.

Salanduil recovered from the memories, and only then noticed that the team ahead seemed to have encountered an accident.

"what happened?"

"My lord!" Eddie came back from the front and said, "Ahead is the canyon that enters the city. There is a group of carriages going through the canyon like us, but they asked to pass first."

Said Sarandeer: "If I remember correctly, this canyon is wide enough for five wagons to go abreast."

"That's right." Eddie said helplessly, "But the other party is worried, it is a team of noble carriages, and there are knights protecting important people, so they are a little wary of us."

"Then let them go first." Sarandiel pulled the rein, "Let's wait a while."

"Yes."

He and the remaining paladins waited quietly in the snowstorm. Taking advantage of this time, Sarandiel looked at the valley again.

There is almost no change here from 200 years ago. Time can take away life, but it seems to be stopped here.Salanduil looked at the peaks he was familiar with, and he could almost recite the curves of all the ridges silently. After a while, the elf lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was afraid that those mountains covered with white snow and ice would burn his eyes.

They were advancing in a valley at the foot of the Orc Mountain, and their goal was the Kingdom of the Red Rose Knights ahead.According to Bothian's prophecy and the clues he found from the half-elves, Salanduil decided to investigate the red dragon Direl and a series of related disappearance cases, and he had to start from the foot of the orc mountain.Before the start of the investigation, he decided to let the paladins return to the city to rest for a while, and collect more information in the human country by the way.After all, what awaits them next is a tough battle.

An adult red dragon is missing, Olivier the Prophet is missing, an entire village in the Southern Alliance is missing, plus some strange things near the human kingdom. Although these things seem to be unrelated, Sarandir is sensitive But his intuition reminded him that they are closely related.And once this conjecture is confirmed, the conspiracy behind it is absolutely unimaginable danger.

To make matters worse, just yesterday, the saints of light in the holy city sent new bad news. The archbishop guarding the diocese at the junction of the north and south borders disappeared!

Missing together again!This time even an archbishop!

As the pivotal figure guarding one side of the Church of Light, the archbishop holds the decision-making power over all affairs of a diocese, and even has important influence on the secular country where the diocese is located.His disappearance is not a trivial matter, at least in the human kingdom, this time's disappearance has caused bigger waves than the previous cases.

Salanduil thought again of the noble carriages in front of him.At this time, they happened to meet a group of noble chariots and horses with heavy guards heading for the Kingdom of the Red Rose Knights (more precisely, this is the parish where the missing archbishop is located), which is really worth pondering.Perhaps——maybe before he had time to figure it out, Eddie shouted from ahead.

"My lord! That noble convoy was attacked in the canyon! Who shall we send to rescue!"

He didn't ask us if we should go to the rescue, but who we should send to the rescue!These duyi paladins are absolutely impossible to die.

Salanduil sighed inwardly.

"How many attackers were there?"

"Not many, I can win with three or four people." Yvonne said.

"Then I'll leave it to you. Everyone else, stay on guard."

"Yes!"

The Dui paladins quickly attacked and joined the battle. Their combat power was not comparable to that of ordinary people, and the situation should have been brought under control soon.However, to their surprise, the combat power of the attackers was far higher than expected.When the long sword held by one of the opponents released dazzling flames, Red Dragon Red whistled excitedly: "What a pure flame element!"

Yvonne and the others seemed to have noticed something too. They rode horses, formed a formation outside the noble convoy, and began to call for more partners to help out.I don't know if it was because of the action of the paladins that caused the other party to have a cause, but in the end, the attackers chose to retreat out of concern.Yvonne did not choose to pursue.

"How can these people use such a pure fire element? They're not giant dragons." Reid muttered when the other party evacuated.Archie Bailey secretly glanced at Salanduil thoughtfully.

Salanduil didn't speak, but Eddie whispered to him at this moment.

"My lord, those people are..."

Salanduil did not let him continue, because at this moment, some of the noble carriages and horses rescued by them had come out to express their gratitude.

"Thank you very much for your heroic deeds! Noble, beautiful and powerful Paladins of Dui! May the God of Light bless you!"

"May Dui bless you." The paladins replied.

Yvonne rode his horse forward a few steps.

"You seem to be being watched."

The man who came out to chat with them seemed to be a man who looked like a butler. Although he was old, he was still very polite. This was the style only a butler of a big family could have.Hearing this, the housekeeper nodded and said slightly distressed: "Since leaving the territory, these despicable harassers have never stopped. Thank God, without your help, the consequences would be unimaginable."

The knights that came with the noble convoy had been harassed and exhausted for a long time, and some even lost their horses, so their combat strength was greatly reduced and it was difficult to cope with the attack.This also proved the authenticity of what the butler said from the side.

"You guys are also going to the Red Rose Kingdom. I would take the liberty to invite us to go with you, so that we can take care of each other. It's really embarrassing to say that, given the current situation of our team, I'm afraid it will drag a few of you down."

When it comes to this, how can the paladins refuse.If you don't agree to go with you, wouldn't you be burdened with abandoning the weak?

Seeing this, Red snorted from his nostrils, who was the one who didn't allow them to cross the canyon together just now?

"Are all human beings so hypocritical?" the red dragon hummed.

Archie whispered: "No, part of it, at least I'm not hypocritical."

"But the ones I met were all hypocritical." Reid thought of the black-robed mage, which especially made his teeth itch. During the short time between the two sides, the red dragon was played by the other party every time.

Archie looked at him with pity, and thought, Red, sometimes it's not that the other party is hypocritical, but that you are too simple.Complimentary and derogatory in both senses.

In the end, the paladins went with this noble convoy full of wounded soldiers, but Salanduil did not show up from the beginning to the end, as if he had a tacit understanding, he pulled up his hood, and Yvonne replaced him Take responsibility for dealing with outsiders.In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, Yvonne is the leader of the team.Fortunately, the aristocratic butler knew how to control his curiosity, and he did not rudely ask the purpose of the paladins going to the Red Rose Kingdom, but he took the initiative to mention the purpose of his party.

It turned out that they went out this time to be responsible for sending the young heir of the family to the Red Rose Kingdom for further studies.This is very common in human countries. The lords of various places basically have the practice of sending their children to the king. This child is considered a proton in disguise.The lords expressed their loyalty by reassuring the king's heart.However, when they really decide to rebel, these protons will basically not shake their minds, but will be the first to become abandoned.

Considering these reasons, those who are sent to the kingdom are generally not very favored children of the family.It's just that for some reason, the master of the housekeeper sent his heir to the royal city as a proton.And along the way, they were hunted down many times.

"When I arrive in Wangcheng, I must find someone to send a letter back to the post." The old housekeeper sighed, "The lord must have made a mistake."

What did he do wrong, and then let his heir be hunted down all the way?

Archie Bailey shook his head. He glanced at the carriage behind him, and suddenly felt pity for the so-called heir.It's a pity that the gaze of the mage apprentice can't penetrate the solid wall of the car, otherwise the noble heir inside will definitely be burned by his enthusiastic eyes.

"What are you thinking?"

Reid walked up to him and asked strangely.

"Haven't you read it, the heir of an underappreciated family, the abandoned son! This is the identity of the protagonist in an ordinary adventure novel!" Archie whispered into his ear.

"What kind of 'protagonist' do you think the guy in the carriage behind you is?" Red looked at him like an idiot.

"Don't you think!" Archie looked at him with burning eyes, "Usually at this time, the protagonist will meet a master who changes his destiny, and he will teach him everything, and here... there is exactly one bit!"

While the teenagers were whispering, Yvonne took the opportunity to ask the old housekeeper for news.

"Since you are locals of the Red Rose Kingdom, have you heard anything about what happened around here?"

"What's the matter?" asked the old housekeeper.

"Is there someone missing suddenly?" Yvonne looked at him.

The old butler's face changed slightly, and he said in a disguised manner: "Spring is already here, the snow at the foot of the orcs is about to melt, and those cruel orcs have returned one after another. At this time, one or two poor people are missing, alas, it will inevitably attract attention .”

"Really?" Yvonne looked at him for a while, but didn't ask further.

The two pedestrians crossed the canyon, and after riding for a while, they approached their destination.

The terrain suddenly became flat, the valley dispersed into the distance, and a plain jumped into everyone's sight.And on that piece of rolling green land, a city made of white rocks appeared at the end of the field of vision.It uses white marble to build up the base layer by layer, and uses snow-white walls to divide different urban areas one by one, and it is arranged in a circular arc around the most central palace.Seen from a distance like this, on this open and flat plain, it looks like a white rose facing the sun, stretching its delicate petals wantonly.

"arrive."

someone said.

"White Rose City is ahead."
