Chapter 848 The Purist's Mission
"I thought you were going to be the Lord of Dawn by yourself," Nightingale said after Andrea left, "So you were not joking that day, you really want to support her to be the Queen?"
"It's not like you can't tell the difference," Roland shrugged, "As for me..." Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, from lack of talent to communication efficiency, from time urgency to limited resources, and in the end he just said, "After all It's beyond the reach of the whip."
"Really..." Nightingale patted him on the shoulder and said, "But don't worry, Andrea is still very reliable, and the Quinn family should not be too bad."
Unable to tell, these two noble witches really cherish each other, Roland secretly smiled. However, Nightingale once lived under someone else's roof, and her political vision is a bit worse than the former's - this has nothing to do with family differences. As long as you are not stupid and loyal, you can have a chance to rise to the sky without paying too much. Know how to choose.
It's just that he didn't say these things out. After all, the serious and nonsense Nightingale is so cute.
At this moment, there was another knock on the door outside the office.
"come in."
The door opened in response, and it was Isabella who appeared at the door.
Roland was also a little surprised. Logically, she was not a member of the Witch Union, so she couldn't enter and exit the castle area normally. However, after seeing Agatha outside the door, he probably understood how the other party came to the door.
"Your Majesty," the pure man who originally belonged to the church bowed and saluted, and then got to the point, "I heard from Agatha that the Church of Hermes is about to collapse?"
If it weren't for her serious expression, Roland would have thought that she was here to plead with the old fellow of the church.
"That's what the intelligence says, and the specific situation is still under investigation." Although he didn't quite understand the purpose of the Ice Witch in disclosing these things to the other party, he still nodded with the thought of taking a look, "Whether it's Cold Wind Ridge or In the west of Dawn, there were refugees from the church. From their confessions, it seems that the cathedral, which represents the faith of the Holy City, collapsed overnight."
"I hope you can send an army to Hermes, and the sooner the better."
"What's the reason?"
"Do you still remember what I mentioned before, the hundreds of thousands of crazy pills?" Isabella said in a deep voice, "I don't know how many people know the location of the warehouse where the pills are stored, but probably not Too little... If it is leaked out, it may have a negative impact on your future plans." She paused, "And these things are also of great help to the battle of God's will, it is best to collect them all and transport them back Neverwinter."
It was only then that Roland remembered that there was indeed such a thing in the information provided by the other party. Zero seemed to be planning to gather all human beings and fight to the death with the army of demons. The killer weapon was a large number of mad pills. Since he didn't despise these potential drugs at all, he put the matter behind him.
But now the situation has become quite different. Isabella is right. If someone spreads the pill and falls into the hands of the nobles of Graycastle, the Dawn Kingdom, or even the black street rats, it will cause a lot of trouble— —It may not be enough to deal with a heavily armed army, but it is enough to attack the officials he sent out, as well as the local government.
"Where are the pills?" He looked at Isabella.
"Scattered in the hidden warehouses on the Hermes Plateau, it's hard for me to tell where they are," the latter hesitated for a moment, "If you believe me, please let me go with the army - I was the Pope This identity should slow down the speed of collapse. If the internal disintegration is too fast, even the army will find it difficult to control the fleeing situation."
"But who knows if you will use your identity to do other things," Nightingale said, "such as letting go of those believers secretly... Some of them are your acquaintances, right?"
"You know I didn't deceive Your Majesty," Isabella shook her head, "Zero has proven who is God's favorite, I don't need to do those futile things. If necessary, the army can also set traps in advance , let me introduce the believers into it, and then eliminate them in a unified way-in addition to the method of maintaining order, it is also feasible to completely annihilate the opponent."
"Uh—" Nightingale couldn't help but spit in a low voice, "It's really the method of the pure."
Roland couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. Being able to silence Nightingale for a moment, the other party was undoubtedly serious. Although Isabella expressed complete surrender to him that day, it was based on his ability to fight the devil. Unlike most witches, she received the education of a pure person. As long as she can achieve her goal, she doesn't put the lives of ordinary people in her eyes.
After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "I can let you go with the First Army, but you don't need to intervene in the battle, just find those pills and destroy them on the spot."
"Your Majesty," she said with a frown, "although maddening drugs will overdraw your life, but in a desperate fight..."
"You don't need to say much," Roland reached out and interrupted her, "Speaking of order, I still have a task for you."
Isabella immediately lowered her head, "Just give me your orders."
"There are still several monasteries in the old holy city... right?"
"Yes, but there are no witches in it anymore," she thought for a while, and then changed her mind. "Maybe there will be awakened people in the evil moon last year, but the chance of surviving is not high."
"It doesn't matter if you don't have one. Let those orphans out, take care of them, and bring them back to the West."
She froze for a moment, "Everyone?"
"Yes, you are in charge." Roland nodded.
If the philosophy of the Purity is to complete tasks without caring about other people's lives, he would like to see if the Purity can still implement this goal when performing missions that save lives. He can't change what happened before, but he doesn't want the other party to continue on this road.
"This request is not without reason. At the same time, I would like to thank you for reminding me that if the upper echelon loses the ability to maintain order, the monastery will probably become a hell on earth. And Neverwinter City needs a large number of laborers, and women can also get Appropriate job, I remember the church will provide basic education for orphans, right? So they are excellent seedlings, and should not starve to death in the high wall without anyone paying attention. I want you to bring them back, as much as possible Quite a few."
Isabella was silent for a long time, "That will require a lot of food."
"Someone will prepare it for you."
There was a complicated expression in the eyes of the pure one. This scene seemed familiar, and she also showed the same expression on the day when she was pardoned, removed from the shackles, and obtained "limited freedom".
If you can hear her heart, then the biggest must be "why".
But she didn't say anything, but slowly bent down.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
