Chapter 22 Pathfinder
The middle-aged man raised half of the scimitar and stabbed Manda in the face. Manda was thinking about how to use to stop the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party's knife suddenly stopped in the air.
What a good way to force confession, Manda gave up all his fantasies in an instant. Manda was about to say everything he knew, but found that the other party did not intend to stop, but his hand could not move at all.
A silk thread falling from the sky wrapped around the middle-aged man's wrists. Looking along the thread toward the source, Manda saw the bookworm Worm flying on the tree.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and used his hands to pull Worm down from the sky. Worm flapped his wings and pulled the middle-aged man away.
The middle-aged man was shocked, but he didn't expect that Worm was stronger than him. If his feet were off the ground, he would lose the opportunity to resist and be at the mercy of Worm.
The middle-aged man changed the scimitar to his left hand and cut the thread a few times. The thread did not break, which was far more tenacious than he thought.
Seeing that one foot had left the ground, the middle-aged man quickly used a spell, wrapped a vine around his feet, and let the other vine attack Worm.
Worm flashed and dodged the vines. The middle-aged man shouted, "New branches!" A tender branch suddenly burst out from the bare dead tree. Worm was caught off guard and wrapped around his wings by the branches. At the same time, a vine pulled Worm off the air.
Worm fell heavily to the ground, his left wing was torn off, and his right wing also had several holes. He struggled to stand up, and was kicked to the ground by the middle-aged man.
After landing, Worm was obviously much clumsy than the middle-aged man. He was punched twice by the middle-aged man and lay on the ground without any strength to fight back.
The middle-aged man raised his machete and was about to cut off Worm's head when he heard a roar in his ear. The three-headed dog rushed out of the grass and jumped up and rushed him to the ground.
The middle-aged man grabbed the neck of the three-headed dog with his right hand, and groped for the scimitar with his left hand, and his strength was not inferior to the front of the three-headed dog. During the fight, Worm wrapped the middle-aged man's right hand with silk thread. The middle-aged man shouted: "Vine!" The vine just rushed towards the three-headed dog, and the dog's head in the middle opened its huge mouth, biting and pulling it off.
The battle was over, and it ended so suddenly that Manda didn't even have time to give her a cheer.
The three-headed dog turned back into a human form, picked up the middle-aged man's head from the ground, wrapped it in a linen and tied it around his waist.
There were two other heads hanging on his waist, one of which was fat and the other was that tall and thin.
"It's a good job," the three-headed dog looked at Manda with a smile, "It's over tonight, let Sphinx find someone else to take over us."
...
In the castle hall, the Lion woman looked at the three heads on the ground and asked the three-headed dog about the incident.
Leonder smiled and said, "One second level, two first level, the second level is the believer of Adonis, the plant god, and the other two are the believer of Kratos, the strong god. I just cleaned up the mess for them. The credit is the two little guys!"
Quinta's face was flushed: "I, I have no credit, I almost lost my life, it was Manda who saved me."
"Stop giving in," the Leo woman frowned, "Tell me the whole story first!"
Manda told the story from his perspective, and heard that they saw the clan emblem of Claudesey, and the Leo woman said, "Your father actually has such a powerful servant? Do you want to execute them?"
Manda sighed, "Are you joking? Of course this is not a servant of Baron Claudesey."
"Do you want to excuse your father?" The Leo woman intentionally made things difficult for Manda.
"Why should I excuse him? Although he is not the mastermind of this matter, he is also an accomplice."
"Manda is right. These two people cannot belong to the Claudesey family," Quinta defended Manda. "Second-order believers can easily become the viscount's guard commander, or even become the marquis' guard. A mere baron is not enough to send them."
The Leo woman tilted her head and asked, "Where did they come from?"
Manda said: "They were sent by the enemy to explore the way, and asked the Count's whereabouts as soon as they opened their mouths, proving that they knew the Count was seriously injured."
Sphinx frowned: "Who leaked the news? Call everyone into the hall!"
Leonder shook his head and said, "Don't be so impulsive, this will cause panic. From the accident in the temple to now, I have been responsible for the whistle. I can guarantee that no one has walked out of the valley."
"How much money is your guarantee worth," Sphinx sneered, "who can guarantee your loyalty?"
"Whatever you think, whatever you do, what if I haven't said anything!" Leonder turned his head and stopped talking.
Sphinx stared at the head of the ground and felt a little incredible. Even if there was an insider in the valley, after the accident in the temple, he immediately told Baron Claudesey that where could the Baron find these three tough characters? As far as she knew, except for the valley of the Haze, there was no second-level ancient god believer in the entire Tieshan Town.
Even if he had been planning for a long time and had these three believers hidden in his home, he shouldn't have let them die so hasty. There was not even a soldier around him. Do you really want to rely on these three people to conquer the entire valley?
Claudesey doesn't have this courage and is not so stupid, but who could it be if it weren't for him? This person's status must be higher than Claudesey, otherwise Claudesey would not be able to obey.
Viscount Sorens, of Ironshan Town?
Sorens' castle was too far away from here, and it took more than a day to go back and forth. The Leo woman thought hard and couldn't get the answer. She turned to look at Manda and Quinta and asked, "Money, divine objects, meritorious deeds, what reward do you want?"
Both Manda and Quinta chose money, and the Leo woman gave them one gold coin each.
Manda should have left, but couldn't help asking a question: "Is our valley special? What kind of enemies will covet this valley?"
Sphinx looked at Quinta: "Have you not told him?"
"I don't know how to explain it to him," Quinta shrugged his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and said to Manda, "Many people want to get the name of God, but most people don't know their natal gods. Even if they know their natal gods, it is difficult to find ways to enter and upgrade. But here is different. This is part of the abyss of hell. This is the territory of Tartaros, the father of Tifeng, where you can give up your natal gods. As long as you follow Tifeng's instructions, you will have the chance to get the name of God, that is, there is a shortcut here."
Manda understood what Quinta meant that it was easier for him to fall than to choose the right way. He asked again: "Will Marquis Nars covet this valley?"
"Do you know what you are talking about?" The Leo woman sneered.
"Don't he want to get the shortcut to eternal life?"
"Even if he wants to, he won't do that stupid thing!"
"How is the relationship between the Count and Marquis Narles?" Manda continued.
The Leo woman shrugged her eyebrows and before she could answer, Quinta said, "They are friends, very good friends."
"It's true that he is a friend, and it's not that good," said the Leo woman, "or else he wouldn't have asked us for a hundred more gold coins."
"If someone knew from the beginning that something might happen to the sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial stakes would be injured, they kept ambushing near the valley. When they heard the sound of the temple collapse, they sent people to the valley to investigate overnight. Isn't it reasonable to say this?"
"How is this possible," Sphinx said with his eyebrows tightly, "Even the high-level believers of Prometheus can't make such accurate predictions!"
"What if this is not a prophecy, but a planned conspiracy?" Manda asked tentatively, "Do you know why Tifong got angry?"
"How could I guess the mind of the gods?" The Leo woman was a little impatient.
Manda said: "If, I mean, if, Marquis Narls sold us a fake golden apple, would the gods get angry?"
As the words fell, the hall was silent.
Manda continued: "If this is true, Marquis Nars would have known that something would happen in the sacrificial sacrificial case and the count would be injured. He could ambush people near the valley for a long time. He could mobilize the Claudese family, or even a military force. Perhaps that army was about to move outside the valley."
