Scene 301 Vortex V
"Miss Magdal. ⊥E novel, www.e xiaoSHUO.cOm⊥"
Even though it is raining and dark outside the Great Sanctuary of Andover, it does not change the quietness and solemnity of this sacred place in the past; the hall of the sanctuary is a place for quiet meditation and prayer on weekdays. It accommodates thousands of people to pray together, so the interior is very majestic. Twenty-eight gray stone pillars support a deep dome. Rows of benches face the central altar to form a centripetal fan-shaped space, full of a kind of The majesty of space.
Here, a large number of lower-level servants are responsible for cleaning every day. When these lower-level clergymen saw Princess Magdale coming back from the outside, they got up and saluted in a hurry.
Magdal herself is a high-ranking priest and a princess of a country, not to mention that she is nominally a student of High Priest Wood. Now that Wood left Ampere Sear, he was about to go to the center of power in the main hall, so the status of Her Royal Highness has also risen and become more respected.
Magdahl stopped and nodded slightly in return to everyone. Although she was born as a princess of a country, she seldom saw the delicacy and arrogance of a noble daughter. Although this is all related to the education she received, there are also factors in her inherently gentle nature.
The nun-princess has always been known for her affability in social situations, and there is no lack of praise both inside and outside the temple.
"Is Priest Wood here?" she asked.
"Master Priest...it seems that he still doesn't see outsiders, Miss Magdal." All the servants answered in unison.
"Is that so..." Magdal sighed slightly in his heart. Although he had expected it, he was inevitably frustrated. She thought for a moment, then asked again: "What about Lord Meros?"
She called Wood the high priest, but instead called Moros the lord, and her attitude was clear at a glance. But everyone knew it well and didn't expose it. Meros was indifferent and power-hungry. Not many people in the Andeful Great Temple really recognized this 'outsider' for a while.
A servant thought for a while and replied, "The priest seems to be receiving guests."
"Passing guests?" Magdal was slightly taken aback. It's so late and there are no guests. "Who is the guest?"
"It's Marquis Youxi, and a nobleman we don't know." Another person replied.
It's him? Magdal knew that Marquis Youxi was on the side of Grand Duke Sifah, but the alliance between this man and the North did not seem to be that close. What is the important thing for this prodigal son of the nobles to come to the temple at this time?
She frowned slightly,
Thinking of what happened last time, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of disgust in my heart. ¢£e¢£Novel¢£Net, www.ExiaoSHUO.COm¢The previous servant observed his words and hurriedly asked, "Miss Magdahl, do you want to go and have a look?"
"No, there's no need." Magdal shook her head resolutely. A disgusted look appeared on his face.
All the servants immediately looked at me and I looked at you. It was rumored that this nun and princess had an unpleasant relationship with Marquis Youxi, and now it seems true.
But what they didn't know was that at this moment, the princess of Antuburuo's face was slightly hot, and her palms were sweating from tension; she repented silently in her heart, and wondered whether Lord Martha would forgive her for lying in public behavior.
But in any case, this is a path she has chosen and does not regret.
"Martha, please bless me to be successful." Magdal said silently in her heart.
...
The light in the small room is like beans. The light of the candle flame flickered on and off. Occasionally, a spark would explode, reflecting two equally dark faces around it.
The second (1) high priest of Amperesel known to Brando, Meros, is a famous power-hungry villain in history, but it is slightly different from the high priest Amman he killed in the ring of trade winds The most striking thing is that although Moros is sinister and indifferent, he is very self-disciplined, lives a simple life, has no pursuit of material desires, and is like an ascetic monk in his life.
(Note 1: Game history)
Not to mention whether his image like this is faked. But at least he has maintained this image during his tenure; the relationship between this person and the Eruin nobles is not cold, and his political views are slightly biased towards the Cruz Empire, but at least he still maintains a superficial relationship with the Eruin royal family. passable relationship.
But that is a story in history after all. Now Brando is like a butterfly fluttering its wings and affecting history gradually deviated from the original track. The attitude of the new high priest is also very different from the history.
This small room is exactly a guest room located in the side hall of the Great Sanctuary in Anderfleur. Since the Great Sanctuary rarely accepts foreign guests on weekdays, there are not many guest rooms, and most of them are simple. It was also a while before Merroth and Wood handed over power. But the new high priest has been living here, and it can be seen from this that he has little pursuit of material life.
But the two people in the room seemed a little restless, especially Marquis Youxi. Although his image of a libertine is more or less a deceitful disguise, the marquis's pursuit of quality of life is really different from other nobles. This room seems to him like a In the slums, although the tables and chairs were wiped bright and clean, it gave him the feeling that there was always a layer of dust on them. ∏∈E∏∈Novel∏∈Net, www.exiaoshuo.CoM
Lord Marquis just sat for a while, and he had the illusion of ants crawling on his body. Not to mention that he was still burdened with "important matters" in his heart, which made him even more depressed for a while.
It's just that the master hasn't arrived for a while, and neither of them dare to make a fuss.
Finally, footsteps sounded, and within a short while, Moros's cold face appeared outside the door. The distinctive hooked nose was like his logo. At this moment, the priest was wearing the golden red that he usually presides over daily affairs. Robe, with a straight face.
He always has such an expression. At that time, the player Eruin gave him the nickname of Man in the Iron Mask. This is not to say that he is unselfish, but it is ironic that this guy has no expression.
Marquis Youxi did not dare to have such an idea in his heart. Not to mention his own identity, the high priest is more important because of the giant standing behind him; although Eruin had defeated the Cruz people centuries ago, but Today's Eruin nobles have become one of the group of people who are most afraid of the Cruz people in the world.
It must be said that it is a kind of irony——
Both of them got up to salute, and Moros just nodded back, showing his arrogance. Marquis Youxi and the others didn't feel any difference, as if they felt strange otherwise. Cruz has been gaining prestige for a long time, and the whole Eruin feels inferior.
"Master Marquis, you must have some important business to come here so late." High Priest Moros didn't intend to exchange greetings, and went straight to the point as soon as he came up, and asked.
"Exactly." Marquis Youxi smiled slightly. Now it's back to normal. "As expected by the officiant, the letter we sent has really worked. There seems to be a quarrel within the royal party."
He talked and laughed, and when he talked about his pride, he couldn't help laughing and ridiculed: "Although the people of Marcarro and Lewoods are extremely smart, they are driven by their own interests to appear short-sighted; they can only see sticks. Carrots on the table, completely ignoring the trap ahead."
"This shows the importance of a lofty goal." Moros nodded. Acquiesced to Marquis Youxi's self-boasting. In fact, the plan itself was proposed by the other party. They blocked the news from the north, but at this time, they used the eyeliner around the other party to spread the news of the lion invasion. Sure enough, the royal party was in chaos.
This can be said to be a public conspiracy, but they knew that Marcarro and others had to swallow this bait. This was determined by the nature of the nobles themselves, and Moros couldn't help but sneer.
"It's ridiculous that they still want to divide the north and the south, because they are afraid that they won't survive tomorrow's sunset." Marquis Youxi smiled triumphantly.
Princess Magdal who came from the secret passage heard exactly such a sentence at the beginning. She couldn't help being startled. At first, I thought it was Griffin, but when I listened carefully against the wall, I realized that the other party was talking about the Royal Party.
The Royal Party actually clashed with Griffin! The Antobro princess couldn't help holding her breath. On the one hand, she was skeptical when she heard Brando's "rebellious" remarks at the auction in the afternoon, but she didn't expect it to become a reality in a blink of an eye; on the other hand, Ma Gedar couldn't help frowning, breaking with the royal party, the situation of his best friend became more dangerous.
This is what she doesn't want to see...
She shut up. She didn't dare to make a sound, but listened carefully; the construction and renovation project of the Great Sanctuary of Anderfule was completed by the Sanctuary of Fire. She is not the only one who knows the secret way here. In fact, the new high priest Melos should also know. It's just that the other party probably didn't know that there was another key to the secret passage, so they relaxed their vigilance.
Because of this, she dared to boast to Brando. But even so, she still had to be careful.
Moros' strength is not outstanding in the temple. But as a great priest, he also has the strength to approach the elements. Although the Marquis Youxi is known to be a libertine, few people know that he has the strength of the golden rank. The unrecognizable nobleman next to him also looked extraordinary. Magdal observed everything outside through the peephole of the secret passage, and he didn't even dare to take a breath.
At this time, Marquis Youxi had just finished expressing his opinion, and Moros glanced at him coldly, with a bit of displeasure in his expression. He is cautious by nature, and what he hates the most are those arrogant people, not to mention that the royal party is not really a fish on the backing board, among them, Buga and Li Woods are both strong in the realm of elements, and it is really hard to stay not that simple.
Among them, Lewoods was a well-known wizard for a long time. As we all know, wizards of the same level are much more difficult to deal with than swordsmen.
He shook his head and replied: "Forget about the royal party, the princess is not easy to deal with. Nimesis and Overwell are both masters of the gold rank, and there are many royal knights loyal to that little girl." A tricky character. Now there is another Knight of the Lake, who is only stronger than Leigh Woods—”
"The point is, the Lionheart Sword is already in her hands. The Sword Guardian family will naturally fall to her side. I heard that the three gold-ranked masters of the Earl of Yanbao are all in Ambersea at the moment. What's more, the one who is not inferior to Young people in the field of elements." After Moros finished speaking, he looked at Marquis Youxi.
You Xi's face twitched: "Huh, that's true."
"Although their hearts are not in harmony, we still have to deal with four element masters at the same time. You have no problem?" Moros glanced coldly at the two people in the room.
"No problem." The nobleman next to Marquis Youxi finally spoke in a low voice.
"Ah!" Magdal couldn't help but yelled in a low voice, and now she finally saw the face of the last nobleman clearly. That is really an insignificant little nobleman, and his face is also a public face, but Magdahl happened to know him - that should be a retainer of Earl Balta.
The White Lions!
Could it be that the White Lions have come near Ampersel? The White Lion Legion used to be the pride of the Eruin people, but now this pride is no longer there. The Marquis of Balta was bought by the eldest son of the king, and he has already fallen to the side of the nobles in the north. However, unlike the Black Blade Legion, the White Lion Legion is a frontier garrison, and their biggest enemy is the Cruz people. Unexpectedly, when everyone turned their attention to the original Black Blade Legion of the Forbidden Army, they subconsciously ignored this force.
But how dare they transfer away from the border? Grand Duke Sifah is crazy? Magdahl's mind was in a mess, and at the same time, she broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the sound insulation effect of the secret passage was satisfactory, and her previous voice was not noticed by outsiders. The nun and princess let out a sigh of relief, her hands and feet were a little cold, but she couldn't help but continue listening.
"That's good." Moros nodded, and then turned around: "Have you selected the designated person?" He gave some marquis a stern look: "This is related to the reputation of the temple, and it is the most important thing in our plan. One ring."
"Please rest assured." Marquis Youxi nodded immediately, and he took out a gadget from his arms and put it on the coffee table: "That man is absolutely reliable, this ring is his token—"
Moros didn't speak, just picked up the ring and nodded coldly.
But at this moment, the three people in the room heard a slight sound, as if a heavy object fell to the ground. "Who!" The High Priest with the highest strength was the first to react. With a sharp shout, he raised his hand and shot a golden-red ray that hit a bookcase in the room.
There was a crackling sound, and the bookcase burst into pieces and burned, and sawdust and sparks fell down like colorful butterflies. At the same time, the wall on one side of the room suddenly rumbled and slid to one side, revealing a secret passage.
Moros cast his cold eyes over there for the first time, and he immediately saw Magdahl sitting on the ground with a pale face.
"Miss Magdal!" The new High Priest of the Andeful Great Sanctuary, with a pale face, almost squeezed out these words, "You did too much this time, I think Wood I can't keep you."
But Magdahl seemed to have never heard of it, and just stared blankly at the ring on his hand.
"That's impossible..." she murmured.
