Chapter 436, Temple Commission

Gao Lin's Book of Lords was lost and he wanted to find a place of refuge, which was normal.

But when the other two lords he mentioned had the Book of Lords, as long as they did not leave the territory, the Faceless Man would not be able to gather an army to attack the territory.

After all, the Faceless Men are an intelligence organization that can mobilize desperate manpower, which may not be as many as the time-travelers at this time.

Therefore, as long as you stay in the territory and don't wander around, there won't be much of a problem.

"I have mentioned this matter to them before, and they agreed. We all feel that instead of staying here in fear, it is better to move to a safe place and avoid the limelight." Gao Lin said.

It seems that the three of them have already discussed it.

"What about your territory? The Faceless Men's matter may not be settled when. They have been staying outside. Do you want the territory anymore?" Fang Hao continued to ask.

Gao Lin forced out a wry smile and said, "It depends on the situation. We will consider matters in the territory after it is safe. Boss, we still have some strength, and I still have some skills that can help you with your work."

Gao Lin had been interrogated by the Faceless Men, and even if he was lucky enough to survive, it still left a psychological shadow.

He definitely didn't want to suffer this kind of experience again.

Now another time traveler has died in the hands of the Faceless Man. Even in the territory, he is in a state of mental stress every day.

If he didn't leave here, he was afraid that he would either die at the hands of the Faceless Men or become mentally ill.

I met Fang Hao today, so I decided to give it a try to see if I could defect to Fang Hao and leave here temporarily.

"Now that you have thought about it, I can help you temporarily. How many of you are there?" Fang Hao thought for a while and said.

It is nothing to Fang Hao to provide some help to the time travellers.

At that time, all they need to do is ask Fu Lei to arrange for someone to take them to the fishing village. There are many villages there and they can live for a while.

And with the current strength in Fang Hao's hands.

Even if you give them 100 courages, they won't be able to cause any trouble.

Hearing Fang Hao's agreement, Gao Lin's expression instantly became excited, and he quickly thanked, "Thank you, boss, thank you very much. If the three of us take the people, we will go back and have a look. We don't necessarily have to take them with us."

"Okay, that's no problem. Let's do this tonight. You can go back and prepare early tomorrow morning. Then I will arrange for someone to escort you away." Fang Hao said.

"Okay, okay." Gao Lin agreed and looked at the sky outside.

At this time, the city gate was closed, and he had nowhere to go if he wanted to leave.

"Winesa!" Fang Hao shouted.

The proprietress, Vanessa, walked in and said, "Sir!"

"Winesa, arrange a room for him, close to the house over there with the Knights." Fang Hao said.

"Yes, sir." After Vanessa agreed, she turned around and walked out again.

Gao Lin kept thanking Fang Hao and followed behind.

Before leaving, Fang Hao did not forget to remind him, "Gao Lin, there are many rules here, don't go out at night."

"Yes, yes, I understand." Gao Lin agreed and followed Vanessa out of the hall.

After explaining everything, Fang Hao also took An Jia back to his room to rest.

…

Early the next morning.

Gao Lin returned to his territory under the protection of ten Lionheart Knights.

By the way, I also went to inform the other two lords.

At noon, they were outside the north gate of Lysis City, waiting for Fu Lei to pick them up.

After Gao Lin left.

In the mansion, a new guest was welcomed.

I originally thought it was Rebecca who had brought the news about ordering the armor, but when I saw the person, I found out that the person was an acolyte of the temple.

"Mr. Fang Hao, Priest Miriam, please come over." The aide said respectfully.

Fang Hao is the temple's biggest financial backer.

The materials donated in this month are enough for the entire city's wealthy businessmen to donate in a year.

Now, everything worn by everyone in the temple is marked with bones.

"Um, I wonder if Priest Miriam has anything to do with me?" Fang Hao asked curiously.

Miriam, an old lady, is quite old-fashioned. She took the initiative to find her, so she couldn't be regretting that she had sent too many apprentices.

He has donated all his things, and he will not regret it now.

"I'm not sure about this either. If you have time, please go to the temple." The aide continued.

Fang Hao nodded, went back to his room and changed his clothes, then walked out of the mansion and boarded the carriage.

Anjia and Demitga sat in the carriage, and Asseti and 20 Lion-Hearted Knights followed the carriage.

Moving forward, we soon arrived at the temple.

Fang Hao walked into the temple and was led to a room by the assistant priest.

The Lionheart Knight instantly surrounded the room.

Guard them closely.

Not long after, Miriam also walked in from outside.

"You are afraid that I will harm you by bringing so many people here." Miriam said as soon as she entered the room.

For the 20 golden-armored guards guarding the door, there are three heroes in the room.

Even if Rebecca came over, there wouldn’t be such a big battle.

"There's nothing I can do. Rebecca said it's disadvantageous for me if there are too many people. I have to be careful when I go out." Fang Hao said helplessly.

Miriam also knew what was happening in the city recently.

The fights between these wealthy businessmen and powerful people did not interest her at all, so she just listened to them.

"By the way, Priest Miriam came to see me. What's the matter? Is someone in my territory unruly?" Fang Hao continued to ask.

Among the people sent here, the living habits of the orcs make it difficult to control their emotions.

I'm afraid that some of them can't control themselves and cause something to happen.

"It's not these things. Doesn't Mr. Fang Hao have a mercenary group in his hands? I do have a mission here, but I don't know if Mr. Fang Hao is interested." Priest Miriam said calmly.

Task?

This made Fang Hao look at Miriam again to confirm that she was not kidding him.

The temple has a special status in a city. Any dangers or special tasks will be handled by the city lord's palace. There is no need to issue tasks to mercenaries.

But since the other party opened his mouth, Fang Hao had to ask clearly before answering.

"What kind of mission, Miriam might as well talk about it in detail, so that I can confirm whether the mercenary group has the ability to complete it." Fang Hao said.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and an aide walked in.

He placed several cups of fruit tea in front of several people, then walked away quickly with his head lowered.

It wasn't until the door closed that Miriam continued to speak: "It's not a task to touch you. There are some mice in the backyard of the temple and someone needs to deal with them."

"Uh! Priest Miriam, this is no joke. My subordinates are all rough guys. Rat extermination is really not suitable for us." Fang Hao said with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Find mercenaries to help catch mice.

Although they had taken on this kind of task before, this was no longer the case.

Fang Hao would not do such a thankless job, even if there were a lot of people free.

"Mr. Fang Hao, don't worry, I'm not talking about ordinary mice." Miriam picked up the fruit tea, took a sip, and continued: "In the backyard of the temple, there is an entrance to the underground pipeline. , when the deacon was cleaning, he discovered rats, these rats were stealing things, and they also saw rats reading temple books."

"A mouse reading a book?"

For a moment, Fang Hao suddenly remembered that they hid in a cave once.

Then I saw a few mice wearing clothes and walking at night holding up luminous stones.

It was also near the city of Lysis at that time.

"Yes, so I feel that this matter is a bit strange, so I plan to ask Mr. Fang Hao to check it to avoid potential danger in the future." Miriam said.

"Why don't you report it to the City Lord's Mansion? They should be able to handle this kind of thing."

No matter what, it is more convenient to tell the City Lord's Mansion than to find people like myself.

However, Miriam chose to look for herself.

The relationship between the undead and the God of Light lies here. The entrance to the mission is in the backyard of the temple, which is somewhat difficult to proceed with.

"It has been reported to the city lord's palace, but there has been a lot of chaos in the city recently, so this matter may have to be delayed for a long time," Miriam said.

The military operations in the city consisted of several rounds of roundups of faceless men.

These things have already made Rebecca very anxious. Dealing with the rats in the temple will definitely be postponed.

And the Faceless Ones are not that easy to deal with. Even after a year and a half, it is difficult to end.

Miriam thought of looking for herself, which made sense.

"Can you take us to the backyard to have a look?"

If there wasn't too much danger, he still planned to help Miriam try to solve it.

After all, his 200 subjects are still studying in the temple, and new subjects will be sent over in the future.

With this kind of relationship, it’s not easy to refuse.

"Of course, please come here." Miriam stood up and led Fang Hao out of the room.

Outside the door, the lion-hearted knight guarding the door saw Fang Hao and others coming out.

He also immediately protected several people in the middle position.

Together they followed Miriam towards the back of the temple.

Passing through each building, we also passed the dormitories and canteen where the deacons lived.

Miriam pointed to a building and said: "There are some books stored there. It was there that an acolyte found a mouse reading a book."

"kindness."

Several people continued to move forward and came directly to the backyard.

The backyard is very large, and you can see the deacons busy at work.

"The houses over there are where supplies are stored, and that house is where the underground pipelines are." Miriam continued to introduce, and finally pointed to a stone house in the center.

Fang Hao and the others approached, and after entering the stone house, they saw a stone staircase extending downward.

Stretching into the depths of darkness.

"Priest Miriam, where is the underground pipeline you mentioned?" Fang Hao asked while looking down.

Miriam replied: "The city of Lysis was built much earlier than imagined. There is a complete set of underground pipelines underneath the city, which are mainly used for underground drainage and sewage disposal of the city."

Fang Hao nodded.

Underground pipes are, to put it bluntly, the sewer system.

At the same time, Fang Hao also noticed another thing. Miriam said that the city of Lysis was older than imagined.

In other words, the city was not built by the first residents.

Rather, the original city was rebuilt and then settled by the first residents.

If this is the case, then this place has existed for hundreds of years, or longer.

This has to make people think that there are strange monsters living below.

Fang Hao looked at Miriam beside him and said softly: "I have taken over this matter, but it is not the time to deal with it now. I will bring people over tomorrow and prepare some items for cleaning up rats."

Hearing Fang Hao agree, Miriam also squeezed out a smile on her old face.

"Okay, you can do it tomorrow too," Miriam said.

Fang Hao nodded and stood up, took stock of the situation for four weeks, and continued to ask: "Is there any back door here? When we come tomorrow, there will be many people and weapons, so I'm afraid it will cause chaos if we come in through the main entrance."

Miriam was right when she thought about it, even though the guards brought by Fang Hao now caused quite a stir along the way.

If more people come tomorrow and carry a lot of weapons, I'm afraid there will be some chaos.

Miriam took Fang Hao and others and walked to the right again.

"There is a back door. It is rarely opened here and is usually guarded. If Mr. Fang Hao brings someone here, you can just go through this door and just tell the guard."

On the right side, there is a single iron door guarded by an acolyte.

Miriam stepped forward and had a brief chat with the aide. The latter glanced at Fang Hao and his party and nodded.

After a while, Miriam came back again.

He took Fang Hao and others and continued to leave through the front door, "I have made it clear that you can just come in through the back door when the time comes, and she will open the door for you."

"good."

Several people returned the same way, and Fang Hao and others did not stay any longer and left the temple directly.

Get on the carriage and return to your residence.

…

Lysis, north gate.

Including Gao Lin, the three travelers packed up their large and small packages and waited silently in front of the door.

All three of them were dressed like ordinary farmers.

Squatting on the roadside, like a coolie waiting for work.

At noon, I saw a group of cavalry arriving in a puff of smoke.

Gao Lin and the other three were a little stupid.

Those who came were all eighth-level cavalry, and the number was probably close to a thousand.

The army in the city of Bilisis was much more powerful.

The leader took off his helmet, revealing the image of a young time traveler.

The person coming was none other than Fu Lei, who made a special trip to pick up the three of them.

"Who is Gao Lin?" Fu Lei glanced at the three people who had their heads wrapped tightly, leaving only their eyes exposed.

"I, I am." Gao Lin stood up immediately.

Fu Lei nodded and continued to ask: "Where are your villagers? Are you not going to take them away this time?"

Gao Lin immediately replied, "We considered taking them all away, but we were afraid of attracting the attention of the Faceless Men, so we didn't bring them over. But don't worry, there are fields in the city and there is enough food for everything."

Fu Lei nodded and said nothing more.

For these things, he just came to pick them up according to Fang Hao's request. Whether they took the villagers with them or not was not within the scope of his tasks.

He ordered three horses to be brought.

"Okay, then come with me, go live with me for a while, and come back when it's safe."

The three mounted their horses.

Fu Lei waved his hand, and the cavalry turned around and began to rush towards the fishing village.

…

the other side.

The city of Lysis, the city lord's palace.

In the room of City Lord Aubrey.

Aubrey was sitting on the edge of the bed, drinking fruit wine to quench her thirst. On the bed, a woman with snow-white skin and long blond hair was lying there with a smile.

Seeing Aubrey who was sweating profusely, the woman laughed and cursed: "Aubrey, is this all you need?"

The woman lay there naked without any hesitation, but her face still wore the veil made of gold wire, which added a special feeling.

"Lady Adeline, I'm just an ordinary person. It's normal not to have the physical strength like you." Aubrey said while wiping Han.

Adeline, the new leader of the Faceless Men, leads all the Faceless Men in the city and seizes the power of Lysis City.

"Huh, useless man." Adeline rolled out of bed, slowly came to the table, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

He continued and asked, "Are you ready for your plans for tomorrow?"

Aubrey stared greedily at the fair and delicate body in front of her, and said: "Get ready. Tomorrow the city defense army will be lured out of the city by false information, and the guards of the city lord's palace also happen to be the people I assigned to take shifts. Not only Rebecca will If there is an accidental death, the boy named Fang Hao will also go, and then we will be able to say whatever we want."
