"Is the internal strife in the Temple of Light so serious? He actually used assassination."
Buffon smiled bitterly. The affairs of the Temple of Light should not have been known too much, after all, just keep your own scandal in bed.
But the Pope and the Saint can't hold back such a big rebellion. Besides, the battle between the two sides is now in a state of intense heat, and it is very common to openly assassinate.
If ordinary people talk in front of him like this, Buffon would have to show him the other party. But the person in front of him was not only implicated by the "internal affairs" of their Temple of Light, but also saved them. No matter how harsh the other party spoke, he had to listen carefully.
Xizer Nabo, who was next to him, walked up and smiled and said, "No matter what, you saved us, and now you have become a thorn in the side of the saint. Why not be with us for the time being?"
It turned out that this place was from the Pope, and Beta just wanted to inquire about the recent situation of the Temple of Light. Hearing this, he agreed: "Okay, no problem, I just happened to find a comfortable place to rest."
The old man smiled and said, "There is no more comfortable place nearby than the City Lord's Mansion."
Xizer Naber walked up and smiled politely, "I am the lord of Kese County. I am very happy to invite you to visit my residence for a while."
Kese County is the destination of Beta and others, and the two sides hit it off.
Old Buffon smiled and said, "It's not convenient for you to ride a horse on both of you, why don't you ride a carriage with Cecil?"
When Jessica heard this, she was immediately unhappy and glared at the old man. For her, she rode with her master and then her small body was retracted into her master's arms. I wonder how comfortable it was, but the old man broke his happiness as soon as he came. It was really hateful.
Beta looked at Cecil, who seemed to be full of anticipation, and immediately refused politely.
Cecil was a little disappointed. This celebrity with a very charming charm seemed to be happy to develop an ambiguous relationship with Beta, which is normal. Beta wanted to be good-looking, strong, and had a servant, and obviously had wealth and power. This was obvious that most women would like to be a four-person young man.
After the guards packed up their companions' bodies, the convoy continued to move forward. Although there were fewer companions, there were also more people with obviously good strength in Beta, so the atmosphere in the convoy was not too serious. The mercenaries and the clergymen were both groups that took their companions' life and death light indifferent, so there was not much sad atmosphere.
The convoy arrived at Kese County and entered the city. Immediately, a group of city defenders came over and guarded each side of the convoy.
Kese County is also a prosperous city. Or it should be said that as the largest country in the world of mankind, any city of Frans is quite prosperous. Even a small city has a population of at least 200,000, while a medium-sized city has a population of more than one million. It is said that the kingdom of Frans has a population of more than three million.
Walking through the bustling street, Beta sat on the horses and saw two priests in white robes mixed in the crowd. When they saw the convoy, their faces looked a little ugly, and then disappeared into the crowd.
When they entered the city lord's mansion, two teams of maids came over immediately, one team took care of the old man Buffon, and the other team was entertaining Beta and four others.
Following the process of Xize's hospitality, Beta and others washed up and came to the hall.
The long dining table was filled with hearty food, and Cizel was already waiting there, so naturally Cecil was there... In addition to her, there were several young women who looked like ladies but were obviously famous women, and their eyes turned green when they saw Beta.
Men like women, and women are the same.
If Beta is old and ugly, even if he has the ability, Wojin will at most value him and will not be so close to him. So, many times, the little things between men and women, all the talents, money and power are just the basis, and appearance is the decisive factor.
Beta sat down, Jessica sat next to her, looking relaxed and natural.
Rooney was a little restrained, and Kellysa kept her head down.
For both of them, it was indeed a bit too sudden to talk directly with a nobleman of the city lord.
Nishize is the owner of this place. After making a 'invitation' gesture, he asked while eating: "What are your plans next? If you don't mind, can you become a magician consultant in this city? People here also hope to get the blessing of a magician."
The so-called magician consultant is actually a magician who uses the financial resources of a city to support him, helping him build a magic tower, helping him search for magic materials, magic modeling, etc.
The magician does not need to obey the city lord, but he needs to select some talented descendants of the nobles in the city to train them to become successful. In addition, when the city is in danger, come forward to help solve the problem.
This is a win-win approach. Many talented magicians are willing to do this. After all, for magicians who love research, it is a troublesome to let them make money. It is not that they cannot make money, but that they are wasting their time.
It would be best if someone did it on his behalf. Anyway, teaching students themselves to their own abilities and experience is also a kind of examination.
But Beta naturally refused. First of all, he is a warlock and does not need something like a magic tower. In fact, he is still a Pope's earning lord, and he is not sure how much higher the rank is than the other party. Although the wealth and enjoyment of the king of Holeven may not be as good as a medium-sized city lord like Chenlans, many times, it is also the common idea of many aspiring people.
Seeing Beta refuse, Xize was not disappointed, as he expected.
This is the first time he has seen such a young and powerful magician. It must have been cultivated by a large family. The other party will definitely look down on the small city of Kese County.
Beta looked at Old Buffon and asked, "I have offended the Saints now, so I want to ask the old man, what should I pay attention to?"
Faced with Beta's directness, Buffon was a little surprised, then nodded thoughtfully and said, "Actually, the problem is not big. Our Popes and the saints who plot against each other are still hard to resolve. They can't help but deal with other people."
Beta didn't believe this. Although this old Buffon looked at Yu Shan, he was able to perform the same skills that all politicians could do. He could hear the potential meaning of the other party. Now the Pope's faction is at a disadvantage. If it is really as he said and cannot take action against other people, then the city lord Xize Nabo will not be implicated.
As if nothing happened, Beta continued to ask, "So, if I want to do my part for His Majesty the Pope, then who is the best to find?"
Old Buffon showed joy on his face, but soon his smile disappeared. If Beta hadn't had sharp eyes, he would have never noticed it.
"Although we don't like to implicate ordinary believers, if we really have this intention, we can go to Huiyin City and talk to the city lord. I can write a letter of introduction for you, and he will definitely be very happy."
"Then thank you Bishop Buffon." Beta raised his glass and drank it all, which was a thank you and a gift.
Old Buffon also took a sip to show his gift. Xize laughed apart, looking extremely happy.
Then there was a meeting with guests and guests, and the banquet lasted until late at night. The two sides appeared to be very harmonious, but in fact, the test was everywhere.
Both sides are considered "actors" of the old fox level. Beta did not get more information from the other party, and Buffon naturally did not understand Beta's identity and the forces behind him.
The next morning, after breakfast, Beta took Rooney and others away amid the other party's advice.
After leaving Kese County, Beta tore the letter of introduction given to him by Old Buffon on the roadside and threw it into the stream next to him.
Watching the paper flowing along the stream, Rooney asked curiously: "Master, are you not going to meet the lord of Echo City?"
"I want to meet you, but I don't need the old man's letter of introduction, nor do I use my current identity. I use another method." Beta smiled slightly: "The other party has no good intentions. If we take the letter of introduction, we may be treated differently!"
Rooney looked puzzled: "I don't understand very much! We saved him after all."
"Many times, what the superiors consider is not simple gains and losses, or more superficial grudges and revenge." Beta sneered twice: "Even if their Temple of Light is in internal strife, he is still an internal matter. I am not within the ranks of their trust. The old pastor has even guessed that I am not a Francis. In his introduction letter, there are probably many code words written. If I take it over, I will definitely be secretly investigated by the lord of Huiyin City."
Rooney still wondered: "Since that's the case, why do we still have to go there?"
"It is naturally not possible to pass by with your current identity." Beta smiled and said, "But if we change our identity and have a legal identity, there will be no problem."
Three days later, Rooney finally knew why the master said he wanted to change his identity.
Beta came to the Assassin Union. Two days later, Beta became a down-and-out nobleman in Lago City, and even had a territory manor. Although it was a bit dilapidated, Beta spent some more money and renovated it directly.
But now Beta's name is Cook Green, and Rooney and others are all his servants.
"Master, isn't this a deception?" Rooney stood beside Beta and said with a constipation: "You are pretending to be another nobleman now. What should you do if someone finds out?"
"No one can find out except the Assassin Union." Beta smiled: "We have aristocratic bloodline documents and manor certificates. The ones pressed on it are all my fingerprints. The Francis Kingdom has a very human rule, bloodline documents and manor certificates. Only the fingerprints are not the person. So now I am the legal head of the Green family. Even if someone knows something, he cannot cause trouble for me."
"Where are the original people in this family? If they come to report..." Rooney was a little worried.
"It turns out that all the people in this family have died, otherwise the documents would not have fallen into the hands of the Assassin Union. I don't know what methods they used to cancel the fingerprints on the documents, but their reputation is still good."
Rooney was still worried: "What if the original enemy of this family was reported?"
"They shouldn't be stupid enough to do such a thing as making enemies. After all, we are not the original Green family, and there is no need to target us." Beta sneered slightly: "If they are really stupid enough, I don't mind showing their strength. Whether it's money or personal strength."
Kellysa was bringing the freshly squeezed juice. When she saw Beta's sneer, she suddenly became obsessed with her face turning a little red.
Jessica was lying on the ground to rest. Even with her energy, she was so tired that she cleaned most of the manor.
Rooney swallowed a little, and he asked a question that had been held in for three days: "Master, how much did you spend in total to buy this noble title and manor?"
"Not much, only five hundred gold."
Five hundred... Rooney almost knelt down. This number was incredibly large for him, but the master didn't say much, but he seemed calm and composed. No wonder the master bought the identity of a noble so easily.
"By the way, Rooney, you and Kellysa go to the street to buy some colored and gray hair dyes." Beta thought for a while and said, "By the way, when Jessica wakes up, you go with her, you have to buy some daily necessities and food back. We have to interpret it here for a while."
Rooney responded in a daze, and Kellysa was also in a daze.
In this way, Beta lived in Lago County for the time being. He also found a few bards and asked them to go to the tavern to promote it. Not long after, the upper nobles of the entire Lago County knew about it, and the five-year-old Green family, who had disappeared, came back.
In a hotel, the glamorous businessmen and residents of well-off homes were drinking in the tavern, and a bard sang:
"The youngest son of the Green family, dragged his scarred body, found the legendary red magic tower. The wise red robe mage walked out of the tower. They were noble and holy. They surrounded the youngest son of the Green family, sent their blessings, and draped a red magic robe on him."
"The youngest son's eyes were full of tears. He became a great red robe. Now... he is back, back to the Laguo that gave birth to him and raised him..."
Before the minstrel's lame song was finished, a middle-aged nobleman with an angry face pulled her clothes and dragged them up.
"Who asked you to sing the ballad?" The middle-aged nobleman looked at the bard coldly.
The bard replied in horror, "Your Excellency, it was the youngest son of the Green family who asked me to sing, and he gave me five silver coins."
"He asked you to sing, and you sing?" The fat face of the middle-aged nobleman had obvious murderous aura: "Now, let me tell your colleagues that if anyone dares to sing this song again, he will not want to leave Laguo County alive in the future."
The bard rolled and crawled away from the tavern.
