"Today, I was ordered by the Ninth Thorns Rider, Sarhatin, to investigate the two in detail."
Chapter 9
"Investigate what?" Merlin couldn't help asking, silently grasping the key on his chest.
If you are here to ask for this key, there must be no talk.
"Of course it was the undead flooding in Denby County not long ago. According to the report of the garrison, didn't the two have contact with the remnants of the former kingdom?" Knight Chapman explained.
"I just came to inquire about this?" Alice had limited doubts, and was obviously guilty.
Chapman looked at the weird expressions of Merlin and Alice, wondering if they were nervous, after all, the Bauhinia Knights belonged to the royal family, and most people would feel uneasy when they were called, thinking that there was nothing good.
"Don't be nervous, two of you, you are Master Taylor's people. We will not embarrass you. Let's not hide it. Master Taylor once went to the palace to give lectures to us Bauhinia reserve knights. We are also half of Master Taylor's students."
Merlin looked surprised, wondering if the old man of the president has such a high status?I don't feel it at all, I close my eyes and pretend to be mysterious every day...
"Then...then let's rest assured..." Alice replied awkwardly, still a little unsure.
"Oh, let's start, you just need to answer our questions truthfully." Chapman coughed slightly, took the documents handed over by his subordinates, and glanced roughly, "Did the two witnesses the former prime minister? , The whole process of fighting Bernard, the head of the four heroes?"
"I saw it." Alice nodded, then pointed at Merlin. "He's coming later."
Chapman gave Merlin a faint look. Especially the adventurer proved that he found that it was a villager without magic and grudge, and slightly despised it, so he did not take it seriously. This time, he mainly came to listen to Alice's confession.
Merlin had no magical fighting spirit, and he directly made Chapman think he was a guy in the Adventurer’s Guild. After all, there are many such guys who are used to eating and waiting to die, without any pursuit, "Then Miss Alice, their conversation , Is there any secret?"
"That is to say... before the rejuvenation of the kingdom or something, to gain new power..." Alice didn't understand it too much herself, probably what it meant.
"Get new power? How to get it?" Chapman asked.
"It's..." Alice looked at Merlin next to her, winking at herself, and said angrily, "What do I need? I was too far away, and I didn't hear it very clearly."
Merlin breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Alice as a idiot, she wouldn't be very good at lying. She had to stare at her.
"That's it..." Chapman frowned, feeling that there was no gain, and looked down at the document. "According to the report, Bernard, one of the four heroes of the former kingdom, died 400 years ago. And the undead at the scene is a resurrected undead, Miss Alice has any information on who resurrected Bernard?"
"It should be... the prince of the former kingdom? I heard that when they talked, he said that the prince is not dead and is still alive." Alice said as she recalled.
Chapman widened his eyes and asked in surprise, "You mean Bernard and the others said in person, the former prince of the kingdom, Copperfield, is not dead?"
"Yes, I said it myself." Alice nodded, this is certain, and I heard it clearly.
Chapman was overjoyed. This gain is not small. At least he knows who the enemy is. You don't need to think too much about who resurrected the four heroes of the former kingdom.
"Any other information?"
"What did they say... His Royal Highness relied on sucking the blood of the ** Spirit Race to survive to this day..." Alice recalled this sentence.
Chapman was even happier. The population of the elves in Great Britain is very sparse. Even if you want to catch elves from the southern United Kingdom, you still need to go through customs. If you look carefully like this, you may be able to follow the vines and find a stronghold to go to the country.
"Anything else? Miss Alice, your words are of great help to us, I hope you don't hide anything..."
"No, then we will fight." Alice replied.
"The necromancer and Bernard are both ministers of the former kingdom. Why did they fight?" Chapman asked.
"I don't know much, but Bernard resembles the Kingdom of Revival. The Necromancer disagrees, and then...they started fighting." Alice shrugged.
Chapman thought for a while and continued to ask, "As one of the four heroes of the former kingdom, how strong is Bernard?"
This issue is also very important. It is necessary to investigate the enemy's strength.
If it is strong, the ninth knight Sarhatdin alone is not enough, and other thorn knights need to participate in the crusade.
Alice thought about it for a while. Claude's last continuous burst of combat power exploded, only to encounter Merlin's abnormality, so she said in a very serious tone, "Powerful! Very powerful!"
There was a trace of doubt on Chapman's face, and he said faintly, "Miss Alice, please don't exaggerate casually. I think the report says that the two Saint-Rank powerhouses were both injured, and you made up for it."
"It's really powerful, why should I exaggerate?" Alice frowned.
"Miss Alice, please forgive me. I am a high-level warrior, not an ordinary Xiaobai. As far as I know, even if the holy order is in a state of dying, ordinary attacks are not enough for a high-level. Yes, if, as you said, Bernard is very powerful, how could you easily make up for it? This is not in line with common sense."
"This..." Alice looked at Merlin next to her.
"I hope you can tell the truth and assist our investigation. Our Bauhinia Knights will be grateful to you." Chapman said seriously.
"It's really powerful, but I didn't kill Bernard, but this guy!" Alice pointed to Merlin and told the truth.
"Yes, I killed it." Merlin nodded and admitted generously.
Chapman looked at Merlin, suddenly chuckled, and said contemptuously, "Miss Alice, are you kidding? How can an ordinary person without magic and vindictive defeat the power of the holy rank!?"
"Emmmmmm..." Merlin was silent.He was expressionless, thinking that no one believed it, and I didn't believe it. I didn't bother to care about it.
"I'm not kidding!" Alice pointed at Merlin and said seriously."This guy is really powerful! Approaching the peak of the holy rank, killing Bernard in seconds, I saw it with my own eyes!"
Not only Chapman, but the two knights around him couldn't help but laugh out loudly.
"Alright, okay, Miss Alice, please be normal. Although I don’t know for what purpose you brag about your lover here is very powerful, but I know that the strong holy order wants to kill ordinary people. It only needs a little finger." Chapman shook his head, showing a non-smiling expression, and said contemptuously
"Your nonsense now makes me feel..."
"It's a blatant insult to the IQ of a bauhinia knight."
╮(╯▽╰)╭
Chapter 10: Monthly Ticket Plus
Merlin had an indifferent expression, everything was expected.
Anyway, I don't have magic power and grudge, I will be treated as a salted fish wherever I go, and I am used to it.
But Alice didn't think so, she felt very angry when she was not believed, so she pulled Lamelin.
"Hurry up and show them the slash, or they won't believe me and will treat me as a mental disorder!"
"Why do I have to do this kind of thing?" Mei Lin put on a look of impatience, originally she didn't bother to show her strength to salted fish, let alone add to the late stage of lazy cancer.
As for showing strength to the elder Taylor, it is because I want to get a job.
And to show Chapman?I don't have any plans, there is no need for this.
It will also make oneself be watched like a monkey, for fear that it is not because of his brain disease.
The real strong will shout in the street every day, I am very powerful, am I very ***?
This is not a real strong person, but a self-expanding mental retardation.
"Will you show me that you will die?" Alice was a little anxious, not wanting to be treated like crazy by these people.
"Oh, it's so boring, I don't bother to move..." Mei Lin squeezed her cheek and looked away.
"Humph."
Chapman snorted, not taking Merlin seriously at all, thinking that this guy was playing mystery.
Hearing what Alice said Merlin would do with a knife, Chapman became even more disdainful. What's so special about a rubbish skill that only puts POSS?
Now Merlin gave Chapman the impression that an ordinary villager was eating and waiting to die in the Adventurer's Guild, and used a knife to slash the trash from eating soft rice.
Chapman withdrew his contemptuous gaze and corrected his attitude slightly.
"Miss Alice, I hope you will cooperate with our investigation and answer Bernard's intensity questions truthfully."
"He's really amazing! There is also an ancient forbidden technique, and the explosive power in a short time is amazing!" Alice explained emotionally, her face flushed anxiously.
Chapman sighed, had to be serious, and said seriously, "Miss Alice, you know that we are the Knights of the Bauhinia, and are directly under the orders of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth. If you don’t cooperate with our investigation, what do I think? You know the consequences."
Alice frowned her eyebrows, thinking that the other party was a threat. If she couldn't speak up, she would be imprisoned, and there might be other punishments.
But I have already told the truth, what else to say?
Alice hesitated for a while, wondering whether to follow Chapman to say the least. Originally, this guy was a bit self-righteous because he was a royal knight.
"I hate other people's threats. Are the Queen's Knights very powerful?" Merlin was a little upset, and Alice spoke first.
"What do you mean? Are you questioning the authority of the Bauhinia Knights?" Chapman said arrogantly. He didn't want to talk to Merlin at first, but the other party was a bit rude, so he couldn't be ignored.
In the small space, bursts of gunpowder smelled suddenly.
"Heh, miscellaneous fish is also suitable..."
Alice hurriedly covered Merlin's mouth to prevent him from talking.
"Well, I admit that neither Necromancer nor Bernard is very strong, that is, high-level strength."
"I know it must be the case, how could a Saint-Rank powerhouse be compensated by you?" Chapman said with a smile, as if he was satisfied with this hypocritical answer.
Alice remained silent and didn't want to worry about it. It didn't matter what Chapman thought.
"It seems that the strength of the four heroes of the former kingdom is nothing more than this. It is only a vain name. It is a bit of an overkill to let Lord Sarhatin be responsible for eliminating the remnants of the former kingdom." Chapman shook his head with a smile, and stood up slowly, as if he was about to leave. .
"Yes, I also think that the four heroes have a false name, that Bernard is really weak..." Merlin agreed with him.
Alice couldn't stand it, and rolled her eyes twice, thinking that Merlin felt weak, but it didn't mean that others felt weak too!In his own opinion, Bernard is as powerful as a monster!Will you die if you don't pretend to be invisible?!
For Merlin, everyone looks like a weak chicken, but from the perspective of others, it's not like that at all.
"Huh, Miss Alice, your love is more honest than you." Chapman smiled.
