Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 729 Two choices
After a small interlude, Byron was soon helped up by the bishops who came behind him. .Then, a healing white light lit up.
Although the puddle of blood on the ground looked a bit shocking. But in fact, they were just flesh wounds. With a healing spell, even the damaged flesh swelled back. Byron did not faint, but it was impossible to regain consciousness immediately. After all, he was old, and he fell hard, so he always had a concussion or something...
The movement here naturally attracted a lot of attention. Veron also turned his head and glanced over, frowning slightly, but then he looked back and looked at the bright knight who reported: Do you know who did it?
After checking, there are quite a lot of people... The Bright Knight glanced at Byron and others behind him, hesitated for a moment, and said, The attackers are quite powerful and have complex identities. They are thieves, assassins, and mercenaries. Wait, they’re not from the same organization. But most of them… are bounty hunters.”
Not many people knew about the relationship between the Temple of Light and the Bounty Hunter Guild before. But things are different now. If you just go out for a walk, you can easily hear the two colluding words. Naturally, the Bright Knight knew this, so he felt a little hesitant to say this now.
Because to a certain extent, bounty hunters are people who follow the temple to earn a living. But now, they turned the tables and started killing the people in the temple. I have to say, this is really an irony!
When Beron heard this, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch, but his city seemed to be very deep, so he didn't get angry because of it. He frowned and asked, Why? Who gave them the courage?
It should be that Tang En. As for the method he used, well, we haven't found out yet... The Bright Knight looked a little strange, It's just...someone said that the guild has changed its name now and is called the Killer Organization! About The mission to attack the temple comes from there, and the reward is a secret book that can quickly increase the strength of a warrior's fighting spirit, so...
Absurd! It's no wonder that the Bright Knight hesitated, the reason was really too ridiculous. Is there any secret book in the world that can quickly improve the strength of fighting spirit? How is it possible... This is completely beyond everyone's cognition, so Veron's face is also a little gloomy: Is this the reason why you have found out so far?
Uh... my subordinates are incompetent. The Bright Knight bowed his head and did not dare to speak. At this moment, a plain voice with a bit of majesty intervened, Don't think that you can get away with it after making a mistake, God will not wait to punish you.
This is an old man wearing a plain robe. He has a thin figure, a simple face, and his long hair is draped casually around his shoulders. He looks extremely austere, calm and natural. He continues: The Bounty Hunter Guild is a filthy place. The temple The establishment of this association was originally against God's will. Now it is being counterattacked, which is understandable.
This sounds like hindsight and gloating. But if you put aside these subjective factors, the truth is this.
Byron and other bishops who had come back to their senses over there looked at the old man in plain robes after hearing the sound, looking up and down, and their expressions couldn't help but change. Looking at the vast group of people in front of me, although they are standing in the same place, they can be distinguished into two groups in subtle ways. , the clothing and temperament of one of them are almost similar to that of the old man in plain robes, the same simple and plain, the same austere and natural.
Seeing this, Byron and others' expressions became even more bitter. Of course they knew who these people were - a bunch of stubborn, unlovable guys who clung to ancient doctrines! That is, the Puritans of the temple!
And with these people here, their fate today may not end well. However, haven’t they always stayed at the temple headquarters? Why did you come out this time and bring so many people with you...
Just when Byron and others were confused, the old man in plain robes had already cast his gaze over, nodded politely and saluted, and then said calmly: Bishops, I wonder if Knight Commander Xavian is here?
Their expressions froze, and Byron and others all cried out in their hearts. Only then did I understand that these Puritans came here to seek justice for Xia Wei'an. This matter was troublesome...
Although Byron and others don't know where Xia Wei'an is now, they certainly know his current situation. You must know that the pursuit order was issued jointly after they discussed it. However, some things cannot be put on the table. Byron and others dared to say that Xavian was a traitor in front of the believers, but they absolutely did not have the courage to say the same in front of the Puritans.
Moreover, the reason why Xavian annoyed Byron and the others was because of the Bounty Hunter Guild. As soon as the old man in plain robes stood up, he made his attitude towards the guild clear. As a result, Byron and others naturally found it harder to defend themselves. In the end, all they could do was mumble with their lips and remain silent...
The old man in plain robes spoke again: When I came here, I heard a piece of news. Xia Wei'an was defined as a fallen heretic a month ago, but I have never seen such a notice in the Temple Association. Regarding this matter, can you bishops? Explain it to me?
Byron and others were speechless again. It was the same reason. Not everything could be put on the table.
If they could kill Xia Wei'an before, then this matter would be settled. They will report it to the General Assembly at that time, and since it is a matter involving the Bounty Hunter Guild, they can cover it up if they are tacitly aware of each other. But before Xia Wei'an died, they would definitely not have dared to issue a notice to the General Assembly. That would be giving someone a handle...
Tell me, why don't you tell me? Huh, look at what you have done. At this time, Veron on the side took over the words, his face was sullen, as if he was very dissatisfied with Byron and others, and then he waved his hand and said, Start immediately. , Byron, Mayas... He called the names of several bishops one by one, Withdrawal of all official positions and status, he became a sinner in the temple, and will soon accept the judgment of the Inquisition Court.
Hearing this, Byron and others looked ashen and their bodies trembled, looking extremely miserable. Although I had been mentally prepared for such an ending, I still couldn't help but panic when it actually arrived.
Teacher, help... Byron looked at Veron helplessly. He still looked like he was in a high position and commanding others. He had a pleading look on his face, which was very pitiful. But before he could finish speaking, Veron flicked his robe and simply turned his head away, as if he was going to be ruthless.
On the other hand, the old man in plain robes on the side took a deep look at Bei Long and frowned slightly. It seemed that Veron wanted to kill his relatives out of justice, but just now he actually blocked his attempt to use Xia Wei'an to make trouble. Now that Byron and others have been punished and are about to stand trial, it is natural that I can't say anything more now...
…
It's a settled matter, so naturally no one will stay in this square anymore. And from here it can be seen that this vast group of people is indeed divided into two factions.
Owens appeared out of nowhere and came to the old man in plain robes, whispering something, and then the Puritans and a group of more than a hundred people left, as if they did not intend to stay in the temple for a long time.
And Naberon led most of the people into the temple and officially took over the place. Let’s not talk about the real purpose of this group of people coming here. Soon, in a secret room, Byron, who was looking blank, was summoned by Veron...
Idiot! Waste! Idiot! I worked so hard to support you as the bishop of the Northern Conference, and you just do things for me like this? Believers rioted, destroyed churches, killed clergy... You know what the General Conference thinks now Me? What does the Pope think of me? You piece of mud that can’t hold up the wall...
As soon as Pu came in, Byron changed his previous calm demeanor and started spitting and cursing at Byron.
Byron naturally half-bowed, and Nono responded, not daring to raise his head, let alone wipe the saliva from his face. But after a moment, a hint of joy suddenly appeared on the corner of Byron's mouth. Yes, if the teacher really decided to give up on me, why would he summon me alone? Is it just to scold me? Of course it's impossible...
After cursing for about five minutes, Veron took a breath, pulled up a chair and sat down, looked at the eager Byron, curled his lips and said in a deep voice: If it weren't for the sake of your loyalty to me before... forget it. Now, I will give you two ways to go. One is to accept trial. Based on what you have done, the gallows should be your final destination, but I will protect your family!
After a pause, The second is to give you a week to lead people to kill that Tang En, recover the Eye of Disaster, and perform meritorious service. This should be able to save your life... Don't agree in a hurry. If you don't have If you can do it. I will never interfere in your affairs, and I cannot interfere in your affairs, so your family will be destroyed with you! You make your own choice...
