Chapter 644: Death Without Proof

The room fell into silence. After a long time, the Pope finally said with difficulty: "Those villages outside the city..."

"It's time to pay the price, and I won't let one go."

"Soldiers in the City"

"The Knights of Wellington from Efta will arrive here with reinforcements tomorrow."

Rubens' answer made the Pope's expression completely sluggish. He leaned back on the chair weakly, and could only wave his hands and said, "Okay...ok...the rest, I'll leave it to you to deal with it first."

"His Holiness, take care of your health."

Rubens's face was calm and almost indifferent. He turned and walked out of the stone house, glanced at the priest who was still standing there, and said: "Now the fighting in the city has subsided, you can go back to rest, the Pope has a new servant to take care of you." .”

"Yes, yes! Your Excellency Cardinal."

Looking at the back of Rubens, the priest swallowed his saliva. When he looked back, he found four strange temple guards standing around the Pope's house. He knew that this was not the place for him to stay. He didn't even have the courage to go in and say hello to the Pope, so he bowed his head and left in a hurry...

Obviously, everyone understands who the city is listening to now.

………

At the same moment, the figure of the Kodak Duck was already flying westward.

Elvis grew wings with the power of the scroll, and although he quickly left the battlefield, he did not escape Rody's pursuit after all. One side is an assassin who flapped his wings for the first time, and the other side is a high-level monster that has been strengthened by talent. The answer can be imagined. The bow and arrow began to attack.

If it is on land, Elvis has countless ways to move around. But at this time, he didn't know the technique of "rolling in the air to dodge" at all. When he found that the arrow was coming, he immediately tried to lower his flight altitude and tried to rush into the forest below to avoid it, but because of this he underestimated the impact of air resistance during the dive. Variety…

So he lost control and crashed into a giant tree in the forest on the spot, and was shot in the back of the heart by Rody's arrow during the rollover process, and broke his neck when he fell to the ground, and he couldn't die anymore.

Roddy directly took the scepter from him, but then studied Elvis' body for a while. The opponent's arms had completely turned into wings, and when observed closely, Rody suddenly felt a little familiar with them.

But he couldn't remember where he saw it after watching it for a long time.

So he pulled out a few feathers and burned the body to ashes with flames. He dug a hole with magic and buried him in this deep mountain forest. He was not afraid that anyone would find his trace.

For the "Rose Cross", the "Viper's Kiss" scepter was snatched by the enemy. For "Viper's Cross", Elvis has completed the task, but has never returned.

Where did the scepter go? This question will become a historical mystery. Even if someone guessed that Rody took the scepter, he could completely clear up his responsibility by saying "I didn't catch up with Elvis".

This is "Dead Men Tell No Tales": You said I took it, you can go to Elvis to confirm it! Who knows if he coveted the power of the scepter, took it away privately and then disappeared?

Looking at the dark horizon in the distance, Rody glanced at the "map bar", and then began to control his emotions. The somewhat frenzied Kodak landed downward. Under the extremely fast flight, it was only one and a half hours from the "Holy Temple" to Houllier City. Arrived in an hour, but Roddy was not safe on the way, because the "Viper's Kiss" scepter had a mental impact on both him and Kodak.

Rody, who has the "Dragon Slayer's Mark", is basically immune to this kind of mental attack, and has no emotional fluctuations, but the persistent headaches make him quite annoyed. It's not obvious, it feels similar to the migraine caused by playing games all night. On the contrary, Kodak experienced emotional instability several times during the flight and deviated from the route. Fortunately, Roddy continued to use the "Heart of Warcraft" skill, which improved Kodak's mental resistance, and finally arrived at Huo Duck smoothly. Lear City.

Roddy's purpose is simple, to hand over the scepter to its awakener: Sally.

Rody cautiously did not open the scepter wrapped in animal skin, but he knew from the beginning that this scepter was actually a "soul binding" item like the ring. In this case, only Sally can use the scepter, even Pope Peter has nothing to do with it.

But with the artifact in hand, Rody didn't plan to say it out. Only a thousand days is a thief, how can a thousand days be against a thief? If the "Viper's Kiss" is declared to be in Efta immediately, who can guarantee that the "Viper's Cross" will launch a surprise attack on Houlier City like this time? Only when the "Viper's Cross" is completely resolved, will Roddy let Sally admit that he is the holder of the scepter.

Making a fortune in silence is the last word.

In the study room of the Duke's Mansion, Sally was staring at the map in front of her in a daze under the bright spar light.

Once upon a time, only the map of Efta was placed here. At that time, Archbishop Rubens, father Angmar, and that little scout who were not very eye-catching were pointing at it. However, now it has been replaced with a map of the Karen Kingdom. At this time, looking at the rose cross symbol marked by the "Holy Temple" on the map, she still can't calm down in her heart.

Because of the underdeveloped communication, she has not received any information from the "Holy Temple". The "cleaning day" planned by Roddy is today, and the Knights of Wellington have already set off after gathering their troops, and they will be able to arrive at the "Holy Temple" tomorrow. A power reshuffle may be in progress now. According to what Roddy said at the time, it has been going on forever He who played the role of the "Crusader" knight should have escaped safely, right?

When she was in a trance, the housekeeper suddenly knocked on the door, and Sally was taken aback: "What's the matter?"

Butler John had a strange expression on his face. He glanced back and said in a low voice, "Uh... Your Excellency the Prime Minister wants to talk to you."

"Rody wants to see me?" Sally didn't react for a while, thinking it was a request for a meeting, she replied happily, "Is he going to come to Houllier City? Then you go and arrange the welcoming ceremony, I"

She didn't finish her sentence, but she realized that she was wrong from John's expression, and immediately screamed "Ah", and jumped up from the chair like a spring: "He's here?"

"Uh, the Prime Minister said that I will wait for you in the storage room at the end of the first floor." Butler John also felt that this request was a bit strange, so he explained a little more: "I have specifically confirmed my identity, and it will not be pretended by others... There is still some blood on the leather armor, it is said that he just came from the 'temple', be careful on the steps!"

Before John finished speaking, he saw Sally running out of the study like a wind. She held up the hem of her skirt and quickly went down the stairs, both happy and anxious in her heart. She was happy because Rody came to Houlier City, and she could hang around this guy for a while; and anxious because of the blood on Roddy's body that John said …

She had experienced the cruelty of war, so she was afraid that this guy would endure the pain after being injured like before.
