Chapter 228: The Faceless Man

The old woman took back the dagger, put the eye of the needle on the ground, picked up the medicine bottle, wiped it on her body, and handed it back to the priest.

"Good job," Fei Li nodded, "Drag him out and deal with it."

"Yes," she replied hoarsely, but she did not show any effort when dragging the corpse, not at all like an old man who was dying.

"My lord, do you believe what he said?" After the manager left, Priest Shattras asked, "The caravan mixed with the witches, or was it due to the assignment of the lord of Border Town? If I remember correctly, that Isn't the lord the fourth prince Roland Wimbledon?"

"Whether it's true or not you'll have to send someone to check it out," Fei Li said with a serious face, "but I don't think it's very likely that he's lying, as long as he looks around the city wall, he can notice the fugitives." If he wants to make up a lie in exchange for the holy medicine, he must at least make up a lie that is harder to verify."

"I'll send someone to review it right away," the priest bowed.

"Go, report to me immediately if you find any news."

Fei Li walked slowly to the table and sat down, playing with the holy medicine in his hand. These refugees were already in his pocket. In order to control their movements and prevent them from fleeing on their own, after the evil plague spread, he ordered Dreamland Water to send mice to mix in the refugees, spreading the news that the church was coming to save them. As long as they endure for a few more days, not only will they be able to obtain the salvation of the gods, but they may also be accepted by the church and become a part of the royal capital of Graycastle. As for those lurking rats, most of them are patients infected with the evil plague. In exchange for the holy spirit potion, they will definitely spare no effort to do things for themselves.

If the mouse's information is correct, this group has been transporting fugitives since at least yesterday, and according to this posture, it seems that they will not stop until they are all transported, which is equivalent to seriously hindering their own plans. What's more, they also joined forces with witches to believe that witches must be the ones who can cure the plague.

"My lord, the corpse has been dealt with." The old woman walked into the secret room lightly, "Has there been another fallen person?"

"Ten times out of ten," Fei Li said in a deep voice, "and there may be more than one." He paused, "There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to put on such an ugly look anymore, it's annoying to watch."

"yes."

She bent down, and then there was a crackling sound all over her body, as if the bones of her whole body were rubbing against each other, her figure grew rapidly, her gray hair turned black in the blink of an eye, while the wrinkled and loose skin gradually tightened and became tight again Tight and elastic Time seems to flow backwards on her body, and when she stretches her body again, she has become a beautiful woman.

"It looks much better now," Fei Li smiled with satisfaction, "I remember this person is... the one who was hanged at the gate of the city?"

"Yes, my lord," she nodded, "Out of the four of you, you spent the most time on her."

"You really...know how to please me," the priest smacked his lips, "but Shattrath is probably coming back soon, and there is not enough time." He suppressed the desire in his heart, "and those corrupted Or you'll need to deal with it like it always has."

"Leave it to me, my lord," the other party bowed, "I will not let any fallen witch go."

About a quarter of an hour later, Shattrath returned to the secret room. He first glanced at the witch, and then reported to Fei Lihui: "My lord, there are indeed a lot of people missing in the refugee camp outside the west city gate. I was afraid that it would be dark and I couldn't see clearly, so I asked my subordinates to hold a torch and go around in circles below." , Many tents are already empty. However, there is no fire in the dock area, so it is unclear whether the caravan is still stationed there, as for the witch..."

"There's no need to investigate," Fei Li interrupted, "Since the other party dared to transport away the sick fugitives, the mouse's information should not go wrong. In this way, this group has at least two witches, one Monitoring the situation from the air, one person can eliminate the evil plague. Especially the latter is a huge threat to my plan, and they must be stopped." Now the other party is still pulling people outside the city, in case they bring the witch into the city and openly treat those For the infected citizens, the Holy Spirit Potion they advertised became a joke!

"Then what should we do?" the priest asked, "Send the Judgment Army to catch the witch?"

He shook his head, "This is the capital of the kingdom, not the holy city of Hermes. There are only more than 20 judges in the church. Send them out. Who will maintain order when the medicine is distributed tomorrow? And if the number is too small, other than scaring the snake Even if they can defeat those mercenaries, the witches will probably run away." It is precisely because it is in the capital, the trial army responsible for guarding the church is only maintained at the scale of dozens of people, otherwise there will be a permanent army of several With an army of a hundred men, I am afraid that the king will not be able to sleep.

"Then...write a letter to the holy city and ask the bishop to send reinforcements before taking action?"

"I'm afraid all the fugitives will be gone when the Judgment Army arrives." Priest Fei Li sneered, "And we don't need the church's elite troops to deal with a group of mercenaries. Leave this matter to Dreamland Water."

"Give it to the mouse?" Shatasi was startled.

"At least they have a large number of people, they can surround the pier in advance, and then swarm up. How many rats do you think mercenaries with wooden spears can deal with without armor?" He asked rhetorically.

"Probably two or three."

"So they can only deal with two hundred people at most, and the thugs that can be gathered by the Dreamland sailors are more than a thousand people. Of course, these brave and ruthless scum may not be worth a team of Judgment Army formed in formation , but it is more than enough to crush the group of unarmored mercenaries." Fei Li stood up, "Take my words to Vicious Tanis, and give him a day to gather manpower, the more the better, do it tomorrow night. Don't reveal any Other methods that can cure the plague, not to mention dealing with the witch, just tell him not to let anyone escape. The reward is a whole box of holy spirit potions. If he wants to evade or prevaricate, just tell him, Don’t even think about getting poppies and dormant ferns from me in the future.”

"But the witch... what to do? Especially the one who can fly in the air."

"She won't keep flying, and the mice can't end the battle in a short time, or...their function is more to attract each other's attention," Fei Li walked up to the witch, and stretched out his hand to stroke her. Face, "As long as the Faceless Man seizes the gap and sneaks into the camp, there will be no suspense in the result."

By touching, you can completely disguise yourself or others as another person, and not only the appearance, but also the body shape and voice can be perfectly replaced, and the God's Stone of Retaliation cannot be released after it takes effect. This ability can be used as an assassin Simply impeccable. It was precisely because of this that she became one of the few witches that the church kept and specially trained.

"When the other party realizes that they cannot win, there will inevitably be chaos in the camp. At this time, the Faceless One can guarantee that no witch will survive." The priest laughed. (To be continued.)
