"How did you die?"

Although Colin had guessed this possibility before, when the news really came out of Adjani's mouth, he still couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

"Prince Leahy killed it." Ajani fixedly looked at Colin's eyes, as if trying to find something out of it, "Just this morning, in the dwarf army camp outside the city."

really!

The surface of Colin was calm, but his heart had already set off a terrifying wave.

Prince Leahy!

A paladin at its peak was really terrifying. He entered the Ten Thousand Armies alone, killing a Tier 6 mage, just like pinching an ant to death.

No wonder Emperor Reinhardt was so jealous of this prince that he even wanted to sell his wife and clan to obtain a bargaining chip that could check and balance this person.

But Prince Leahy's response was indeed domineering, he even went directly to Mr. Hooter and killed him unceremoniously.

This is probably also his warning to Emperor Reinhardt.

However, for the St. Hild family, Prince Leahy did help a lot.

Once Mr. Ho dies, the northern border cannot be turned over.

The St. Theon family had no other outstanding figures except for the position of Mr. Hooter. Once this pillar fell, the rest, even if there were some big cats and kittens, would be so scared that they would lie dormant, and would not dare to appear again.

Without the Saint Theon family, the rebellion in the north completely lost its source.

Although the Dawson family and the Maynum family are still entrenched outside Wintery City, they are no longer able to shake the foundation of the St. Hild family.

The dukes of the four kingdoms of the empire are all from the paladin family, and there has never been an exception.

If the dwarf wanted to be an exception, he would end up miserably.

They are now thinking about how to convince the Saint Hild family to agree to the dwarves to establish a nation.

It's no wonder that the dwarf messenger Count Anka was so low, and Colin became more convinced that even if there was no agreement this time, the dwarf would send another messenger.

The current initiative has returned to the Saint Hild family.

"Viscount Angele, what are you thinking?"

Colin returned to his senses, and saw Ajani looking at him with piercing eyes, her blue eyes full of inquiry.

"I'm thinking about how to deal with the remaining rebels."

"Then have you thought about it?"

Colin smiled and asked, "Your Excellency, what do you think should be done with those dwarven rebels?"

Ajani's complexion was indifferent, a dreamlike color floated in her beautiful big eyes, she could only listen to her piously saying:

"The Lord of Radiance appreciates forgiveness, but he also values ​​punishment. Forgiveness wins praise, but punishment gains awe."

Colin smiled slightly and understood what Ajani meant.

In fact, the archbishop has been inciting the St. Hild family to fight to the death with the dwarven forces from beginning to end.

When Count Uman was in charge of Winter City, she had the same attitude.

"Are you having some grudges with the dwarf?" Colin asked with a smile.

Adjani shook her head and said, "I have no prejudice against dwarves. However, I don't want to see the establishment of a kingdom of dwarves."

"Oh why?"

Adjani did not answer directly this time, but instead asked: "Your Excellency, are you willing to see the dwarves establish their own country on the northern territory?"

"Of course I don't want to, because this is the northern border!

Whether as a lord of the north or as the husband of Vera, I have reason to oppose any attempt to split the north.

But what is your reason? "

Facing Colin's doubts, Adjani's eyes flickered and she whispered softly: "As the archbishop of the northern border, of course I don't want to see a divided northern border."

"So that's it." Colin nodded slowly, understanding Adjani's motives, "Then we are allies!"

"Of course." Ajani nodded, and once again burst into a perfect smile.

Colin looked dry, but soon he lost his mind, kept his due vigilance, and asked again:

"So, as an ally, should we also contribute to preventing the dwarves from building a nation?"

The smile on Adjani's face became more brilliant, and with the rich and holy breath that enveloped her, she was even more charming: "Your Excellency, how do you want me to contribute?"

Colin took a deep breath, but his nose was full of the strong breath of a mature woman.

"You can hear that Prince Leahy killed Mr. Hooter so quickly. Is there a spy in the dwarf army?"

Adjani was taken aback for a moment, but then she recovered her composure again and said calmly: "The Lord of Radiance has faithful followers in every corner of the world!"

This should be considered an admission.

However, Colin did admire the intelligence gathering ability of the Glory Church. He had learned once in Ice Rock City because of Vera. Now he did not expect that they would have fanatics in the army of dwarves to inform the church.

This all-permeable infiltration method is truly incomprehensible.

Especially among the dwarves, this is even more rare.

Because although the dwarves have always believed in the Lord of Radiance, the Lord has not given them the glory they deserve—they cannot be baptized and become knights.

Therefore, the proportion of fanatics among dwarves is certainly not high.

But even so, the army of dwarves outside the city is still undressed in front of the church, without any secrets.

"I need to borrow your ‘loyal believer’." Colin suggested with a smile.

Adjani hesitated and said: "What do you want to do? You know, this believer has already taken a lot of risk in order to deliver the message to the church. I can't let him be sacrificed arbitrarily."

It is not that it cannot be sacrificed, but it cannot be sacrificed "arbitrarily".

Colin understood what the other party meant.

This is because I am worried that my method is not reliable.

"Please rest assured, of course I will not let faithful believers of the Lord die."

"Then what are your plans?"

Colin smiled slightly, and suddenly approached Ajani's ear.

The beautiful archbishop was startled. Just about to step back and take a distance, he heard Colin whispering in his ear, and he stayed where he was.

But her small and exquisite ear turned pink at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Colin sneered in his heart-let you keep teasing me, now it's my turn to fight back!

Moreover, this archbishop who has always maintained a holy and pious posture is not really like water, without a trace of mortal desires.

After talking about his plan, Colin re-opened the distance between the two of them, and showed a smile that he thought to be the most gentleman towards the ruddy Ajani.

But this smile fell in Adjani's eyes, but it looked particularly hateful.

Appearing to be quite annoyed at her previous gaffe, Ajani gave Colin a fierce look.

It's just that she doesn't know how seductive the style in this look is.

"How sure are you to succeed?"

Colin folded his arms around his chest and smiled confidently: "Since I dare to make such a suggestion, I am naturally confident enough. Your Excellency, do you have no confidence in me?"

Ajani stared at Colin for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "I naturally have confidence in you."

"Good!" Colin stretched out his hand, "Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation." Adjani didn't squeeze, reaching out to shook Colin's hand.

The soft touch quickly accelerated Colin's heartbeat.

But unfortunately, Adjani just shook Colin lightly, and then immediately took away her delicate hand Colin was amazed, seeing the other party turning around and about to leave, she spoke again: "That's right, Your Excellency Archbishop , Lord Duke’s remains have been delayed for too long, and Vera and I hope that you will hold a funeral for him as soon as possible."

Adjani suddenly stopped, her big blue eyes staring at Colin again.

When the Duke's body first entered the city, she actually noticed something was wrong.

Moreover, she had also heard Count Uman say that the Duke's body was dropped, so Colin's intention in this move was obvious.

This is the result of worrying about the problem of the remains being discovered, and planning to bury them as soon as possible, so as to give the Duke’s death a conclusion.

Colin didn't seem to have a guilty conscience either, and he looked at Adjani openly, as if he had no selfishness, but hoped that the Duke of St. Hild could enter the land as soon as possible.

Finally, Ajani's pretty face burst into a smile again and nodded:

"Okay. After the dwarven rebels are dealt with, I will preside over the funeral for the Duke of St. Hild."
