Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 672 Change of Owner

Before Vera answered, there was a commotion in the crowd, but it was two crusader knights escorting a blood wolf. , The knight threw the blood wolf to the ground and reported to Vera: "Miss, we have caught a prisoner. He is willing to confess, but there are some conditions."

Vera stepped forward and said softly: "As long as you tell the truth, the Lord will forgive you. I can give you back your freedom, so tell me, what is your name?"

"Lexi, honorable lady." The blood wolf raised his head, the knight was still very young, about twenty years old. His face was stained with blood, and one cheek was already swollen from the beating.

"Okay, Mr. Leahy. I think you are also a knight, so I think you know better than me what the rules a knight follows."

"Yes." The young blood wolf said loudly: "Loyalty and honor are the codes and beliefs that run through a knight's life!"

"Very well, then tell me Mr. Knight, what are you doing here tonight?"

Lexi hesitated, and raised his head to look at Lanza anxiously. The latter said darkly: "Be careful what you say."

Vera raised her head: "Are you threatening? Threatening Mr. Knight, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that Mr. Knight will tell the truth?"

Lan Zha snorted and stopped talking. Vera looked at Laixi again: "Look, that person is obviously not worthy of your loyalty. I can foresee that even if you don't say anything, he will make you disappear afterwards."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lan Zha said angrily.

"If I'm talking nonsense, why are you so angry? Is it because I said the central thing?" Vera's eyes fell on Lanza's right hand, his hand was tucked under the loose cuff: "Why hide your hand? Get up, is there a gun there?"

Lan Zha's face changed, and he didn't care to hide it immediately. A delicate musket slipped out from the cuff, pointed at the blood wolf on the ground and pressed the trigger. Devira reminded that the two silver knights were watching Lanza's movements closely, watching him raise his musket, and they had teamed up to lay down a barrier of source power. The blood wolf knight on the ground clearly saw a bullet struggling to pass through the source force barrier, but it finally fell in front of his eyes.

If it weren't for that source force barrier, maybe he would have turned into a corpse by now. Hille gritted her teeth and said loudly: "They are going to rape a lady,

Miss. We are ordered to guard, just obey orders! "

Lanza was furious, but several crusader swordsmen stepped forward and handed over his musket. Vera continued to ask: "Oh, who are they? Can you tell everyone their names?"

The blood wolf knight pointed to Lan Zha and called out his name. Then moved to Giles: "This is the Earl, yes, it is your lord, Earl Giles!"

There was a sudden commotion among the crowd of onlookers, and Vera raised her hand to signal for everyone to be quiet. Giles was desperately trying to identify himself just now, but now he wished that everyone would not recognize him. Being pointed out by the blood wolf knight face to face, this is not a good thing. Seeing everyone's contemptuous gazes, he finally couldn't help shouting: "Fart, I didn't do anything! This bastard is slandering me, slandering an earl, and I will send him to the gallows!"

"I am the witness!" Suddenly someone in the crowd said, Giles' face changed drastically upon hearing this.

The crowd parted again, and Willick, who put on his helmet back, escorted Rola to the arena. Seeing that Ruola's clothes were disheveled, she was wrapped in a quilt, and her smooth fragrant shoulders were exposed, people immediately understood. When he looked at Gilles again, his eyes were no longer as simple as contempt, but cast aside. Ruola said loudly: "I am not only a witness, but also a victim. This Earl of Gilles is planning to rape me, but he is still my relative! I really don't know how my brother gave birth to such a bastard like you!"

Gilles was furious, walked towards Ruola and yelled: "I didn't! You are slandering, slandering... oh, what are you doing!"

He suddenly felt a chill on his body, but someone firmly stepped on the robe that wrapped him up. Going so far, Giles let the robe slip off him instead, revealing his thin body. When people's eyes fell on the Earl's naked body, especially the position under his legs, Giles' thing was shivering in the cold wind. The count finally yelled, pulled back his robe and wrapped it around his body, and rushed towards the crowd: "Get out of the way, if you don't get out of the way, I will kill you! Kill you all!"

He has lost his mind, and his majesty as an earl is gone. Looking at the back of Gilles going away, Ruola sighed softly.

Tonight's holy scriptures ended with Gilles' furious cry, and everything was as Vera planned, and people saw the count's unbearable side. And this news will spread throughout the Ark Harbor after tomorrow, and public opinion will make Gilles ashamed to death. It can be seen that in the next period of time, the Earl will not step out of White Castle.

Back to the residence in Ark Harbor, this courtyard was originally the property of a big merchant in the Emerald and Pearl Firm. After becoming a believer in Christianity, the businessman generously donated the property here to the church, and it became Vera's foothold in Ark Harbor. This property includes the main building, ancillary buildings, squares, gardens and stables. It is quite spacious and can accommodate dozens of people.

In addition to Vera and the priest, plus servants and Crusader knights, a total of twenty or thirty people live in this courtyard, which doesn't seem crowded. There is one more guest here tonight, of course Ruola who is temporarily unable to go back to White Castle.

After hearing about the scandal that happened by the Three Forks River, some important figures in the Ark Harbor rushed to meet Vera overnight without thinking about going to bed. In addition to seeking evidence, I also want to sound out the tone, so as to know Ruola's next plan. After Vera sent them back, she met Ruola in a relatively quiet room in the garden. Ruola had already showered and put on new clothes. Apart from the fact that people look tired, there is nothing unusual about it.

The antidote prepared by Baggins has taken effect, and Ruola's source power is overflowing again, which makes her face rosy again, instead of pale before.

Seeing Vera, she sighed: "I can't believe that such a terrible thing happened. Fortunately, you arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"Get there in time?" Vera shook her head and said, "Do you think there are so many coincidences in this world? Tonight's scripture was arranged intentionally by me. Going to the Three-Forked River is the same as going to Hanbo's old house to clear the sins. All this is based on The last time we met, it was just an arrangement I made in the future that I foresee in Lanza."

"You have foreseen it?" Ruola said with a wry smile, "Then why didn't you inform me?"

"Would you believe it?" Vera asked back.

Ruola sighed, nodded and said: "Indeed, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known that Gilles' psychology was twisted to such an extent. By the way, you have to inform Alan. Giles told me personally that the last time He planned the assassination of Allen in Ark Harbor. Unexpectedly, he didn't listen to his brother's advice."

"This is unexpected news." Vera sat down and clasped her hands on her lap: "I will tell Sir Allen the truth. But what are you going to do with the current situation in Ark Port? Let Giles continue Be this earl?"

Ruola's eyebrows were deeply frowned: "He just took this position not long ago, and now something like this happened again. If Giles is allowed to continue to be the earl, I am afraid that people will be divorced. At that time, someone like Earl Reckerd If someone is willing to step in, Ark Harbor will have to be handed over. This is the territory that my brother has fought for all his life, and I can't just let Giles ruin it."

"It seems that you are more sensible than I imagined. I thought I had to use my tongue."

"It was what happened tonight that made me see something clearly, and I also knew where my responsibility lies. After my brother left, I have been depressed for several months, and I can't continue like this." Ruo La resumed her previous decisive attitude. True color, said: "Tomorrow I will go back to the barracks, and first control the military power in my hands. Then I will send a letter to the Marquis of the Iron Spear. I need him to restrain Reckerd. Vera, I still need to meet with Edward."

"About that, I will arrange. But before you meet Edward, I think you have to talk to a few other people. They are businessmen, officials, military officers in this city. More importantly, they are still members of our church Believers. I think these people can help you a lot."

Ruola looked at the girl in front of her for the first time, and sighed: "I really underestimated you, no, it should be said that I underestimated the power of your church. It's only been a while, and your power has already Penetrate to that extent."

"Don't worry, as long as you and Allen are on the same front, then our church will definitely not be your enemy." Vera laughed.

"I hope so." Ruo La's eyes dimmed, and he said again: "How long will it take for him to come back?"

"Should be, soon?" Only this point, Vera can't be sure. She stood up: "It's very late, you go to bed early, I won't bother you."

After politely rejecting Ruo La, she left the room. The corridor was lit with dim candles. Under the candlelight, the silver-white armor on Willik's body was shining with luster. He spread his hands and said, "When will I not have to play the role of Dodd?"

"You can go back to Willick. In fact, I agree with Edward's previous suggestion. We lack a commander in the Crusaders. Willick, you are the perfect candidate." Vera looked up.

She continued to walk forward, and Willick, who was leaning against the wall, followed behind the girl, turned his face away and said, "But I want to be with Master Allen."

"It's all about sharing his worries. If you want to be the commander of the Crusaders, Allen will agree. After all, this position requires someone he can trust. And you, I think Allen has enough trust in you. "

"Let's wait for the young master to come back and talk about it." Willick glanced back: "Is Miss Ruola okay?"

"She is stronger than I imagined, Willick, I need you to go to Dawn Castle in person." Vera said, "The lord of Ark Port has to be replaced. Inform Edward and be ready to act at any time."

Willick nodded vigorously.
