Mystery: Shadow of Order - Chapter 192
“Isn’t Dunn here?”
In the reception hall of the Blackthorn Security Company, “Sword of the Goddess” Krestai Cesima sat on the sofa with the silver-white metal box at his feet. His chin was hidden behind the collar of his trench coat and shirt. The dark green eyes are as clear as the lake under the moon.
There were only two people in front of him, one with black hair and green eyes, slightly long hair, the hem of his shirt was not **** as usual, the poet-like Leonard Mitchell, and the other was gray-haired, wearing a classic black soft hat , wrinkled old Neil.
And after Roshan called Leonard and Old Neil up and brought three cups of tea, she sat uneasily behind the reception desk and pretended to be reading a newspaper, while focusing on the “Sword of the Goddess” ” on the body.
Leonard didn’t know this one of the nine senior deacons of the church, Krystal Cesima, known as the “Sword of the Goddess”. He folded his arms around his chest and his green eyes kept looking at Ke The silver-white metal box at Lester’s feet.
Seeing that Leonard didn’t mean to answer, the mature old Neil laughed and said:
“There is a small problem in Morse Town. The captain and a new member who has just joined in for a while are going to have a look. It is estimated that he will be back in the evening.”
Tingen City itself is not big. There are only seven official members of the night watchman here, and two are on vacation today. Two members are needed to guard the Chanis Gate, plus Dunn and Klein who are going to Morse Town, and Leonard in the hall was just right.
Although Old Neil is an Extraordinary, he is old and frail, and is now a civilian.
“Looks like I won’t be able to see Dunn anymore.” Crestai said calmly. He and Dunn met several times, but they were the only ones they knew in Tingen, and the other was likely to become an archbishop or a senior deacon. The lady named Daly Simone has been transferred to the Diocese of Backlund.
“Are you in such a hurry?” Leonard asked from the side. He had always been yearning for the elite red gloves of the Nighthawks, but his casual temper was not suitable for joining, so he wanted to inquire from the big three of the red gloves. Look at the specific situation.
“I came alone and must return to Backlund today.”
Because of the defection of the former archbishop Ince Zangwill, the actions of the remaining archbishops and senior deacons were restricted to a certain extent, especially senior deacons like Crestai who held holy relics themselves. If it weren’t for him being a red glove and having certain autonomy, he would have to report to the church if he went out alone like this.
This time, he also came to Tingen alone after he informed St. Anthony, Archbishop of Backlund Diocese, that the red gloves he led were still chasing the “witch” of the Gnostic Society in Backlund!
But this time it seems to be something else!
When Krestai explained, he didn’t look at Leonard, but stared at Old Neil’s dark red and somewhat cloudy eyes. His feet began to slowly move towards the silver-white metal box, which contained Saint Neil. “Sword of the Goddess”.
Leonard nodded. He turned his eyes to the box again, and immediately noticed Crestai’s movements. His eyes narrowed, and just as he was about to ask a question, he listened as if he had heard something. Immediately, he turned his eyes to Old Neil.
Old Neil, who was wearing a classic black soft hat, was still listening to the conversation between the two with a smile, but the inspiration of “The Secret Man” made him realize that something was wrong. Wrinkles are revealed.
“Old Neil, how have you been recently? The last time we met was four years ago, right?” Crestai seemed to be looking for a topic casually, his dark green eyes suddenly became darker, his eyes were so deep It seems to be able to see through the body and see the soul.
The wrinkles at the corners of Old Neil’s mouth piled up, and a bit of bitterness spread from there. His old arm reached out and took off the classical black soft hat on his head, revealing his gray hair. The morning sunlight hit through the window of the reception hall. Above, as if there were countless dust floating on top of his head.
He raised his head, closed his eyes, and let the sun shine on his wrinkled face. His chapped lips trembled, and a hoarse voice came from it:
“Have you forgotten that I’m a ‘secret spy’? I’m very sensitive to your eyes.”
Leonard stepped back and quickly waved his hand behind Roshan, who had been paying attention, and said in a low voice:
“Leave here, go underground, don’t notify Luo Yao and Fry who are behind Chanis Gate, leave everything to us.”
Luo Shan was stunned for a moment, then stood up blankly, opened her mouth in surprise, lowered her head, left the reception desk, and walked downstairs.
Leonard wasn’t worried that he and Crestai couldn’t suppress Old Neil, but Roshan, an ordinary person, was not suitable for participating. His lips moved slightly, and then he seemed to be listening to something, heaved a sigh of relief, and walked slowly to the sofa area.
“Is it Him?” Crested’s mouth grinned open, revealing a set of white teeth, and half-illusory and translucent faces with twisted faces appeared in it. His right hand has been placed on the silver-white metal box, and he can take out the sacred “Sword of the Goddess” from it at any time.
With his strength comparable to a demigod, even if Old Neil loses control on the spot, he can easily solve it, but that is not an enemy, it is his colleague, at least for now.
Old Neil didn’t speak, just kept that movement stiffly until Crestai took out the “Goddess Sword” and pressed the bone sword, which was less than one meter, on Old Neil’s shoulder, and the short sword was silent Exudes a pure white, moist radiance.
…
“Old Neil was taken away?”
Klein was full of consternation. He was wearing a knee-length trench coat beside him, and Dunn, whose hairline moved back, was also a little confused. He was not sure if he was dreaming again, or a nightmare.
Leonard opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but couldn’t.
“Is it the ‘Hidden Sage’?” Dunn’s gray eyes looked at Leonard and nodded, but he closed his eyes helplessly, “Why was he taken to Backlund? The confessional room under the St. Selena Church. Can’t you?” The reason why Chanis Gate is placed under the central church in each city is to maintain it with the help of believers who come every day. Their devout prayers will allow part of their spirituality to enter the circle, while the confessional room under each church is maintained. There is also a similar magic circle, which is specially aimed at the Nighthawks who have the omen of losing control.
“Crestay said that things in Tingen are a bit weird recently, and there are not enough people here, so he chose to bring Old Neil to Backlund, where the conditions are much better than Tingen.”
Klein listened to Leonard’s explanation and thought of the pair of eyes that had no eyelashes and tended to be transparent on the back of Old Neil after he had just become a Beyonder. Could it be that Old Neil had already been “hidden” at that time? Sage” influence? Mr. “Emperor” also said this, how could I forget!
Klein was a little annoyed. He recently forgot about the fact that Old Neil might be affected by the “Hidden Sage” because of the captain. He looked at the captain beside him and asked with a little regret:
“Captain, is old Neil okay?”
“It shouldn’t be.” Dunn walked to the sofa and sat down, took out his pipe and lit it, the blue smoke rose up, covering his face, “Becklund is the most important parish of the church besides Winter County, where there are Archbishop St. Anthony is in town. He hasn’t gotten out of control yet, and there will be no problems there.” Wintershire is where the Church of the Evernight Church headquarters is located.
Although he said that, the “Hidden Sage” is an evil **** after all, and being influenced by him, it may be difficult for Old Neil to gain freedom.
“How did they leave? It’s impossible for Crestai to go by train, right?” Even if Crestai likes civilian means of transportation, it is impossible for him to take a Beyonder who is about to get out of control.
“It’s a military airship that just happened to stop at Tingen.”
…
Backlund, Dock Area, Silver Mirror Long Street, Iron Anchor Bar Warehouse.
Although Bird Mustang, the “Viscount Dread” dressed as an ordinary sailor, only sat on a wine barrel on one side of the warehouse, he seemed to be a king sitting on a throne, and his position seemed to be the center of the entire warehouse.
“When did you become a ‘barbarian’? Where did the formula come from?” His voice was not loud, but it echoed eerily in the sealed warehouse.
Rawls looked helplessly at Ken, who was already sweating profusely. He knew that with the cover of the “uncertain fog” on his body, it was impossible for “Viscount Fear” to see his sequence. It must be from Ken’s report. Seeing the clue, now it’s just cheating him.
This is the usual trick of “lawyers”.
But Rawls did not deny it, and simply admitted:
“Some time ago, I got the formula and materials from an Extraordinary gathering and became a ‘barbarian’.” He really didn’t lie, it was a fact.
“Why didn’t you find me?” Bird Mustang looked at Rawls. He was not worried about losing control. After all, Rawls has been a “lawyer” for two years, and he knows how to act. It will be a matter of time to digest it. .
But what he is worried about is the source of formulas and materials. This is Backlund. Almost all the formulas and materials of the “lawyer” pathway are related to official forces. Only by following the clues, with Rawls’s strength and the experience of never seeing blood, it will be a matter of time to be caught.
Rawls didn’t speak, looked “fearfully” at Bird Mustang, who was exuding the majesty of “mentor”, and lowered his head “cowardly”.
Bird sighed and took back his majesty. It seemed that Rawls still doubted his intentions, or did not want to get too close to the “pirates”. He looked at the young Rawls and slowed down. His tone was rather kind:
“You can come to me if you want follow-up formulas and materials, and I will not harm you.”
Seeing Rawls nodded obediently, Viscount Fear also nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at Ken, and asked slightly sternly:
“You said that the smuggling of arms may have been officially known?”
Ken looked at Rawls, who looked like a “good baby” in the corner of his eyes, and felt a little bit in his heart, you have today too! Hearing Bird’s question, he looked at Rawls with some resentment and explained:
“It’s just possible. The shipments over there have been decreasing recently, and something like that has happened again. I’m a little worried that MI9 has found something?”
Ugh! After Mr. Mustang came here, he didn’t care about smuggling at all, he just asked him to report everything about Rawls. Now that I’ve dealt with Rawls’s affairs, I start to care about the issue of arms.
“I see.” Bird Mustang looked at Rawls, “I’m afraid it will be exposed here, and your identity may not be preserved. How about I take you to Intis to live? Or Lenburg, Fei Napoleon will do as well.”
He didn’t want Rolls to go aboard like him, even the “Dark Emperor” was not without loss of personnel, and he wanted Rolls to live safely.
So you mean, Ken will reveal my identity? Rawls glanced at Ken, who didn’t seem to realize anything yet, raised his head and lowered his head:
“It shouldn’t be found out. I’m all here in Yi Rong, and smuggling won’t necessarily be found there.”
“Humph! It’s already known over there.”
Rawls and Ken looked at Bird Mustang in surprise, already knew?
“Luen’s navy has long been rotten. Every time they want to get more funds, they will flow out a lot of weapons from the major arsenals and flow to us through the black market. The power of pirates is stronger. In order to guarantee himself Interests in the colony ~www.mtlnovel.com~ must increase the allocation of the navy.
But since the opening of the new route, the Count has dealt with them, and has a clear idea of their means, but only tacitly agreed to deal with them when it was also beneficial to us.
This large-scale arms trade started two years ago. At that time, in order to strengthen our strength, some people in the Loen Navy not only dared to sell repeating rifles and six-barrel machine guns, they even dared to put thousands of pounds The guns were dismantled from old warships and sold.
The result is very satisfactory to them. Loen’s ironclad ship was designed and started to be manufactured at the beginning of last year. Since then, the artillery will not flow out, but the continuous-fire rifle can still be sold. It was not until the ‘Pritz’ was built that all arms smuggling gradually stopped. “
Ken’s smooth head was covered in sweat. He thought he was very capable and could get a cannon, but for the past two years he has been dancing on the edge of a cliff, in danger of dying at any time.
Rawls also opened his mouth wide. He had doubts about these, but at most he suspected that there was a big tiger in Loen, but he didn’t expect that the navy was playing the trick of raising pirates. However, he calmed down immediately, and with the plan of George III, maybe it was a secret push, and some people were pushed out as scapegoats, and the reform was completed by the way.
Looking at the surprised Rawls, “Viscount Fear” was somewhat satisfied with his intimidation. Some of what he said was true, and some of what he said was purely exaggerated. If not, how can people be taken away?
“Okay, this time I’m here. In addition to taking away the remaining arms, you also come with me and continue to live in another place.”
