It was noon, and Roddy hurried to the monastery after leaving the Duke's Mansion. He wanted to use his prestige and admiration as a "bishop" to recruit priests, but found that the church was extremely empty at this time.
A monk stepped forward to ask, and after discovering his identity, he learned that the dean had personally rushed to the village where the plague had occurred, and there were only three priests in the monastery at this time, which was far from the expected number.
"Baron Roddy, the Archbishop is expected to return three days later, and Deputy Bishop Clos will return tomorrow. He has led six priests to Tass Village and should now be on his way back."
This news made Roddy frown, because at this time he did not have time to wait for the other party to come back.
Although I really want to solve the problem by myself, the conditions are very limited at present: The army that Soderlor has just begun is still in Palerna. It takes three days from the time the letter was sent to the time it came. The only team that can be organized this afternoon is the cavalry of the two knights of the Duke's House ...
Wait a day, maybe everything is good to say, but the result of this may be that countless lives are at stake.
Facing such a decision, Roddy didn't hesitate much, and immediately decided to continue the operation-a team of cavalry infected with the plague could disperse, and a city infected with the plague ... but it was not that simple.
Rushing back from the monastery, when Roddy entered the Ducal Mansion and found that the two knights had arrived, he immediately assigned the task: "Although the assassination of the undead was unsuccessful, I cannot guarantee that they have no backhand, so I and The Knights of Wellington are looking for the source of the plague, and the Knights of Titus stay at the Duke's House ... "
"Here is the road map, Wellington Cavaliers. Our team needs to start immediately. Is ten minutes enough?"
"no problem."
The tall ghost knight nodded, and turned to organize the team, but before Rody continued to say anything, there was a faint utterance: "I will follow the team."
Roddy turned her head and found that Sally stood beside her carrying her bag-the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, but quickly overcome that awkward mood, sternly: "You can't go."
"There are n’t enough priests in the monastery, and the team needs‘ Ring of Purification to ensure they ’re not infected, I ...
Sally opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Roddy's wave: "You have to stay here, this matter has not been discussed, no one can guarantee that the undead will have a second assassination, I can't joke about your life. "
He looked away and Shen said: "The team ... will be protected by other clergy, you need not worry."
Roddy then ignored Sally and explained the remaining things directly to the Titus Knights: "We close the gate immediately after we leave, and we cannot give the enemy any opportunity."
"understand."
Titus looked at the two strangely. After Roddy left without looking back, he looked at Sally and found that she was pursing her mouth and gritting her teeth: "There are other clergy protecting ... With her, you start to murder me ... "
Just after having a quarrel with Akasha, she was scolded by Roddy ... She rubbed her reddish eyes, and she felt aggrieved in her heart. But after trying hard to calm down, she still didn't follow the way and asked to go together, but turned back to the mansion.
Titus scratched his head, and began to let his subordinates deploy defenses. At this time it was considered a "special period", so most of the servants in the mansion began to restrict the area of activity. The only exception was the housekeeper John-under the order of the Duke, he came to the dovecote behind the mansion, Letters were sent to the Rubens, Benjamin and Ignaz royal families.
"Mike, if you have time to clean the dovecote, the taste here is still a bit big."
John whispered to the servant who managed the coop.
"Yes ... sir."
The servant lowered his head in respect and saluting, but John did not notice the slightly strange look of the other party.
At the same time, Sally was stroking the back of the coughing father and whispered, "Rody doesn't want me to take any more risks. He asked me to stay at the Duke's Mansion and say ... so I can be safe."
She then whispered, "I'm not a kid anymore, and I haven't been afraid when facing pagans."
"You ... It's true that Roddy is right, but you still have to blame him." The Duke of Angmar smiled, but he is familiar with his daughter's "little emotions", "I heard him say, you two make trouble It's normal to have a small contradiction, as long as you can finally talk to each other. "
Sally blinked, and her heartbeat seemed to miss several beats. She tried to restrain her inner tension and asked, "He ... what did he say?"
"Rody? He said-it all depends on you."
The father's answer suddenly made Sally excited in her heart: Did Roddy mean ...
"But you didn't think about what I said?"
All of a sudden, Sally's cheeks became red, and her voice was like a mosquito: "Those things you say are forbidden by denominations."
"It is forbidden on the bright side, there are many bishops with illegitimate children, and no one has been dragged to the torture stand and burned to death." Angmar said, but his expression was a bit sloppy: "After all, all I did something stupid ... "
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
Failing to see the birth of the next generation in the family is probably the biggest regret of Angmar's life. During this time, he always talked to Sally with Sally. Obviously, they hoped that they could
repair
as soon as possible, but Sally had never responded positively to this, but at this time holding her father's cold hands, she finally felt inside. Decided.
"Father, the Roussillon family will never fail. I swear."
Time passed, and just as the sun was about to set, Roddy's team had left Hollier and hurried towards the destination marked by him on the map.
The term "pollution source" is vague, but Roddy, who has experienced the "plague", knows exactly what it is and knows exactly where it is-it is undeniable that this is the advantage of his rebirth. The clues obtained by the Duke of Gema, I am afraid that this team may not have identified the source of the pollution last week.
At this time, they are like precision missiles, approaching the target with the shortest route. A team of more than fifty people quickly passed through the dim forest path, raising a large swath of smoke.
"Akasha, lighting"
Roddy's words fell, and the surrounding scenes were immediately illuminated by the "Holy Light". The little priest maintained the divine art and asked nervously: "Will we miss the possible target?"
"I know."
Roddy firmly believes that "the source of the plague" is right next to the river at the junction of "Brigg Village" and "Tass Village", so he led the team all the way straight in and entered the "Tass Village" for a short rest.
At this point, the sky was completely dark, and Roddy glanced at the village under the influence of "Holy Light", but it was a little hesitant for a while:
"This village ..."
Later, he remembered that At this time, Everta had not been attacked by severe winter, war and civil strife. The size of Tass village was completely different from the ruins in his memory.
When the team drank a horse, the soldiers who visited came to report the news: "Master Roddy, the villagers said that the priest of the Rose Cross had already come here and had been dispelled. A total of two people died in the village, and more than 100 people who were infected were already in the recovery stage ... "
"what?"
Roddy's voice did not conceal his surprise. The plague "dye ten deaths" was definitely not an exaggeration, but the situation now ... seems to be at odds with the time.
But he didn't hesitate to think. He looked up at the Knights of Wellington next to him, and Roddy waved to signal the team to start, and then said, "We may be ready to contact the enemy when we wait."
"Cavalry, ready to fight"
Wellington raised his sword, and the knights immediately began to abandon the excess load and began to move side by side.
One kilometer away, the man in the black robe who was pouring another bucket of green potion into the river suddenly raised his head and asked his companion next to him: "Hey, have you heard anything?"
"What's going on, do you think more?"
The pale pharmacist next to him looked up at his head and responded, "Anyway, our task is only until noon tomorrow. Now it's dark, who else will come here?"
"It's also said that the potion has been poured, so go and feed those‘ sheeps. ’
"Is the body enough?"
"It doesn't matter if it is enough or not, anyway, Lord Wembsk will let us put‘ the sheep out tomorrow ... after the council ’s plan is completed, we just need to wait and see what happens.
There was a little excitement between the conversation between the two, but it didn't take long for them to have a few confused expressions on their stiff faces at the same time—
"There is really a voice ..."
"It's a horseshoe, a lot of people ..."
Turning his head to look, in the woodland under the dim moonlight, there suddenly appeared a shadow spreading out.
Just in their hesitation, "Holy Light" bloomed in an instant, causing the two undead pharmacists to reach out involuntarily.
"Is it a sect cavalry?"
"Damn-did these humans find out?"
"Go and open the fence"
The shouts of the two were soon covered by the rumbling horseshoes, but for a moment, they rushed to the dozens of wooden prison cages at the same time with more than ten other undead.
In the light, all the knights who came on the charge clearly saw everything in front of them ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Sure enough ... "
Roddy's lingering heart was finally released, and everything in front of him was the same as that in his memory-he could even see the backs of those undead frightened.
"Akasha, keep the ring of purification,
"Yes"
The priest's voice was soon overwhelmed by the deafening horseshoes after acceleration, and Roddy clenched the tomahawk in his hand, his eyes narrowed, and stared at the figure snoring from the prison cage.
These enemies are not undead, they have a collective name like Thunder Pass: Ghoul.
