Chapter 239 Secrets Everywhere
"impossible!
Now, Lord Xiuman’s right-hand men are almost all children from the orphanage at that time!
Lord Xiuman would never do such a thing!"
Unexpectedly, the person who was the most emotional was Percy, who had already begun to doubt Shuman.
"Uncle Ide, I remember that orphanage. There were quite a few children in it..."
The old butler looked at the two young men with different expressions. He sent away the little girl who was at the door, closed the door, and sat in front of the two men.
"Percy, have you noticed that your peers rarely appear in Radiant City?"
"Well...they..."
"It's possible that you've already met your peers, Percy."
Old Ide took a teacup and poured some water into it.
“Lord Xiuman started to become mysterious a few years ago.
Although he has been covering it up perfectly, I still found some clues from the changes in the City Lord's Mansion and the City Hall.
Those orphans, except for the ones you can see, are probably all incorporated into Lord Shuman's secret army.
They are said to be skilled in assassination, extremely loyal, and capable of destroying their own appearance..."
"do not talk!"
The curly hair on Percy's head stood up because of anger, like an angry poodle.
Not long ago, he was assassinated by the Faceless Man in Nield.
If what Ide said was true, he might have personally...
A light hand rested on Percy's shoulder, gradually calming the trembling city guard.
Larrel did not continue the topic, but faced his uncle and directly told him the purpose of his sneaking back.
"Uncle Ide, what exactly does Lord Xiuman want to do?"
……
“You are the only ones left in the Faceless Team…”
Xiuman sat behind the desk, holding his cup of black tea.
The black shadow beside the desk still looked like a swirling mist.
"Lord Xiuman, these sacrifices are worth it to realize your dream..."
Amidst the tumbling weapons, a faint glimpse of fiery red hair emerged.
“No, this is not my dream, this is not just my dream…
By the way, I heard that the one who killed you all was that useless Ivan?"
The mist shook noticeably, as if it remembered something terrible.
“Lord Xiuman, Ivan… might be a person favored by an unknown god.
I did not participate in the raids and assassination battles, but always hid in the dark and observed.
Alvin has mastered a variety of divine and arcane spells, and his casting does not require spells or gestures. Even the number of spells he can cast is extremely astonishing.
This is not as the intelligence said, Ivan is just a beginner druid."
Taking a sip of red tea, Xiuman’s brows had never relaxed since the survivors of the Faceless Men returned.
"Evan... Nolihuys...
I thought you were just an ordinary playboy in Huiyao City, but I didn't expect that among the antique nobles in Huiyao City, you are the most mysterious one...
Where is he now? "
"Still staying in the Temple of Tyr."
"Hmm? Temple of Tyr?
Revo was captured by the Paladin of the God of Justice just two days ago. This seems a bit too coincidental."
The black mist rolled, and the fiery red hair appeared again for a moment.
"Master Xiuman, do you need a faceless man to conduct reconnaissance?"
"Do not."
Xiuman put down the teacup, turned his head and looked in the direction of the black mist.
"There are only a few Faceless Men left. You have more important tasks."
……
When Alvin saw River Siver again, the middle-aged knight looked listless and his eyes were sunken, as if he had experienced more than ten or twenty rounds of non-stop fighting.
However, although the evil god believer Revo was rescued by the Church of Tyr, he probably couldn't live a comfortable life in the Temple of Tyr - any normal person would think so, so no one took this change seriously.
In order to provide these old acquaintances with a more comfortable environment to reminisce about the past, the priests of the Tyr Church specially arranged a large table of exquisite food to entertain Alvin and his party.
Under the attentive care of several female priests, Alvin had a very enjoyable meal.
On one side is a beautiful priest with cool clothes, a pretty face, and a holy smell;
On one side was Xi Ling, who was wearing a hood, silent, and seemed to be emitting a hint of coldness intentionally or unintentionally——
Alvin now felt that it was a bit difficult for him to pick up the knife and fork.
Just as Ivan was about to escape the scene by peeing, the voice of the white-bearded old man Nordman came over.
"Sir Ivan, Sir River, one of you is the legal owner of Neild, and the other is the actual controller of Neild...
How about we let the ladies enjoy their lunch and go to my study to chat privately?"
Wanting to see what this old charlatan was up to, Ivan readily agreed and left the side hall with Nordman, taking River with him.
It seemed that if she took a step later, an icicle would shoot out from under Xiling's hood.
Only the halfling Sammy was very depressed.
"I'm a man! A male halfling with such obvious features!
This old thing with bad eyesight!"
……
After signaling the priest following behind him to leave, Nordman closed the wooden door of the study.
Then he took out his scepter and chanted a simple spell at a faster frequency.
A flash of blue light appeared in the study, and Alvin couldn't help but wonder what effect this spell had.
"I made a slight change to the second ring magic [Silence Ten Feet]..."
Nordman took off the pastor's hat on his head and took off his heavy white robe, revealing a young aristocratic dress.
What made Ivan open his mouth so wide that he could fit several eggs in it was Nordman's voice, which turned into a female voice with a mature charm!
“I made the area of effect of this spell become a donut.
As long as we stay inside the donut, no creature outside can hear us talking...
Oh! I forgot to introduce myself——
Nordman Glory, from the Glory Family of the Royal Capital, and Ruiwo’s ex-girlfriend.”
As Nordman finished speaking, the white-bearded old man with a fair face and a businessman's expression turned into a tall, beautiful human woman in her thirties.
"It's the ex-ex-girlfriend—
Hey! Why are you hitting people? "
Ivan glanced at River, the middle-aged man's suicidal behavior looked a little familiar.
"Okay, now that there are no outsiders, this is the 'opening window' you want, right?"
"No, wait a minute, let me stroke it..."
Looking at the big sister in front of him whose legs were almost as tall as Lian, Alvin's mind was a little confused.
"You are impersonating the Nordman Patriarch of the Tyr Church?"
"No, no, no -"
After playing with Ruiwo, the long-legged sister walked to the desk, tiptoed lightly, and sat down.
"I just changed my appearance when I took office as the Patriarch of Radiant City."
