While Erica and Abigail were concentrating on monitoring and recording the rituals of the Judah Order, on an inconspicuous roof not far from the Alor Theater, three people wearing hooded robes were also looming.

Show up there and face the direction of the theater.

Although visually speaking, the three of them could not see anything at all. At most, they could vaguely see the roof of the theater in the dark night. Even Erica, who was wearing helmets on the roof, could not see it.

.But in fact, these three people do not need to use their eyes to see, because their eyes under the cover of their hoods are emitting the same faint green light as the black stone tablet at the ceremony site, so they are passing through some unknown

The ability to spy on the details of the ritual scene.

Suddenly, a beam of light flew into the sky from a nearby street, and then a very gorgeous fireworks exploded in the night sky. This was a real fireworks display by wandering artists on the nearby streets. Of course, these gorgeous fireworks in the night sky

And the novel sparks are not gunpowder fireworks but magic, some unsavory little magic, but they still pray to enhance the festive atmosphere and attract the attention of ordinary people. At the same time, when the fireworks explode, they briefly illuminate the surrounding areas.

On the roof, the three people in robes also revealed their complete figures in this short-lived light.

These three ghost-like guys are members of the Naklerk Gravekeeper Church. The leader's robe is different from the other two, and the rough hand-sewn coat of arms on it also illustrates this person's identity.

He is a church pastor, the same level as the previous Gurk.

"Pastor Dumar, that...is it very clear?" The member of the tomb guard on the left among the three people raised his head and asked the leader: "Aren't we going to stop them?"

"No, wait a minute." The priest named Dumar also raised his head and looked at the roof of the theater in the distance and said: "That thing...may be different from us."

Another tombkeeper also raised his head and looked forward. At the same time, the eyes of the three of them had returned to normal, but they were still blurry in the darkness of the night. They only appeared when the fireworks bloomed in the distance.

With the help of weak light, we can roughly see the presence of eyes. At least the eyes of the two people behind are normal. Only the eyes of the leading priest are still dark under the light of fireworks, like two black holes.

People are trembling and restless.

"Pastor Dumar, didn't that thing come from below?" The member of the tomb guard on the right took a step forward and asked: "But that thing does exude the aura of below, that's unmistakable.

.”

"Yes, of course I know this." Dumar seemed to sigh and shook his head slightly and said: "Thousands of years have passed, and there are still countless Burhels tokens left on the ground, so I am sure

The source of that stele is Burhels. However... the stone material of that stele should be genuine, but the shape of the stele should be made by later people. After all, that look is not the style below, and the words on the stele

We can’t understand it, so it’s hard to make random decisions.”

"Anyway, those things shouldn't exist on the ground, so they should be recycled in advance, right?" the gravekeeper on the left continued to ask.

"You must be vigilant about unknown things, otherwise it will cause catastrophe." Dumar raised his head and looked at the sky, and then said meaningfully: "It is enough for me to stay and continue to monitor, you two

Go back first. Remember to tell Gulk and ask her to keep an eye on the cellar door. If there is any abnormal movement here, let her directly take back the stone tablet by force."

"Follow the instructions." The two tomb guards bowed respectfully to Dumar and then disappeared.

"The Order of Juda... Ketan Osara..." Dumar looked in the direction of the theater again and said to himself: "Young man, I really hope you can understand what kind of dangerous thing you are doing...

...Don't cross the line, otherwise I will let you know what real pain is."

Dumar still stood there and silently monitored the situation in the theater, but at this moment his body was almost invisible. Except for the occasional flash of fireworks in the sky, he almost blended into the surrounding darkness.

At the same time, the black market auction site on the front line has been completely controlled by the warriors of the Lion Corps. Whether it is the mask dance participants in the front yard or the auction site behind, they are all forcibly detained, except for a few who want to take risks.

There were no additional casualties. However, Galeni was not in a good mood now because she had rummaged through almost the entire auction site but could not find the two elf relics she wanted most, which were her own.

The magical swords of two deceased subordinates.

In order to obtain the whereabouts of the two swords, Galeni had to use some special means to interrogate the staff at the auction site and behind the scenes, and even conducted quite subtle torture on the liars. But unfortunately, even if

This group of people couldn't tell the whereabouts of the two swords, and most of them had no idea of ​​the existence of these things.

Obviously there are only two possibilities now. One is that the black market members here are just using the gimmick of elven relics to attract buyers. Maybe they do not have the two lost magic swords in their hands; the second possibility is that the things are indeed real.

It's on the black market side of Trikla City, but the people behind the black market didn't bring it here to sell it, and even the people at the venue didn't know the whereabouts of this thing.

Naturally, Galeni does not intend to give up her last hope. After all, morally speaking, if she cannot recover the relics of her subordinates, then she will basically have no shame in going back. Although this seems a bit stubborn from a human perspective, for elves, especially

For the highly independent border patrol hunter corps, this is something that greatly affects morale and dignity.

Jialaini really had no place to vent his pent-up anger here, but fortunately, he sneaked into the auction and successfully recovered a few insignificant elf relics, or one of them was damaged by himself.

Apart from the remains of the magic sword, the remaining items were lost items from the elves of unknown origin. These items seemed to have been made by tomb robbers, so Jialaini took the opportunity to collect them and planned to go back and relocate them.

In addition, this auction also included some other elven gadgets that made Galeni dumbfounded.

The origin of these things is unknown to Galeni, but generally she has some idea. After all, there are only a few places on the entire Isheka border that have some private interactions with humans, and among them the most

It's possible that it's Farnese's side.

However, from the complete and brand-new appearance of these gadgets, it was not difficult to tell that they seemed to have just been made. For this reason, Jialani instantly thought that they might be cheap goods that the guy from Weiford made to defraud people of their money. For example,

One of them, which clearly looks like a small wooden carving commonly used by the elves to decorate gardens, is actually priced at 500 gold coins. You must know that such a very random small carving does not even cost less than a stone coin in Isheka. It is so frustrating.

Instead of using an ordinary ornamental flower, you can get several.

Of course, Galeni knows that there are people in Farnese who like to do this kind of thing. They don't mean that they need human currency or goods, but they just like to get some worthless bargains to defraud human property and use it.

This is just fun. However, the property they get from humans will not be wasted casually. At least these things are usually used in the Borderlands forces that Farnese secretly operates. This is barely considered a good thing.

A great way to save extra money on internal finances.

In short, after contacting Diana, Galeni and Thea planned to follow some of the warriors of the Lion Group into the hidden passage of the auction venue. The purpose of the Lion Group was naturally to raid this secret passage leading to the dark street, but from then on

It seemed that their raid was not going very smoothly at first, because the secret street armed forces ambushing at the exit of the passage were blocking the Lion Group's attack. For this reason, after being unable to attack for a long time, Jialaini was a little impatient and planned to go over and help.

.

Jialeini Soldier doesn't know what level of combat effectiveness the warband warriors in the Principality and the armed forces in the black market have. In her opinion, if Bikini really wants to compare with the elves, even the highest combat power among humans is in the elves.

It's just mediocre in front of me. Although the roaming hunter army is a border army in Isheka, its combat effectiveness can be regarded as an upper-level army. Although it may not be able to easily wipe out a human country, but

There is no problem in dealing with this point. However, before Galeni entered the secret passage, he went to the back of the auction venue and recovered the "stolen items" confiscated from the Lion Group in full view of the public.

After paying for the items before, he entered the secret passage with Thea, who looked embarrassed.

Jialaini is not someone who likes to default on debts, but since he has fallen out with his counterparty, there is no need to waste these properties. On the other hand, these things are also Diana's private property. If it were not Jialani

If she is busy this time and does not bring too much money, then she will not be willing to waste Diana's property. Even if necessary, Jialani will be willing to find ways to provide some financial support to Diana. After all, Jialani is a special person.

A sister who loves her sister very much, in any case, she just doesn't want her sister Diana, who is often traveling and working hard, to suffer outside.

After taking out the elf longbow and sword from her bag, Jialani simply took off the mask with camouflage magic. Although her elf identity caused quite a stir in front of everyone, it also caused a strong attack.

The lion warriors at the exit of the passage were greatly encouraged.

Speaking of which, the reason why the warriors of the Lion Corps have been unable to attack this exit for a long time is not because of how powerful the opponent is. The armed black market members who are squatting at the exit at this moment, except for some personal thugs and guards of black market businessmen, the rest are long-term employees of the dark street.

Professional mercenary group. In fact, if it were normal, the warriors of the Lion Group could face this group of people with bare hands and one against ten. However, the powerful lions are now trapped in the narrow exit and cannot move.

They attack with a wide range of powers, and there are even magicians among the opponents, so there are too many obstacles created by magic at the exit to hinder their charge.

Constrained by the weak terrain, the Lions were obviously exhausted. Occasionally, a small number of Night Owl assassins tried their best to attack, but their previous efforts were wasted due to lack of backup. However, the people trapped here were not very clear about the fact that several other attacks were actually carried out.

The offensive on the other side of the passage is quite smooth, and some local Lion Regiment detachments have even invaded the dark streets and are currently engaged in arduous street battles with the resistance forces of the Three Cunning Rabbits.

At this moment, everyone in the dark street also understood that Archduke Michael was suddenly going to attack and plan to wipe out the dark street forces in one fell swoop. For this reason, all the black market merchants who had gathered here in advance also became ruthless, took out all their assets and summoned

All the subordinates that could be summoned began a desperate resistance against Duke Michael. In fact, everyone knew that the dark street forces alone could not confront Michael's battle group head-on. In addition, there were also the Night Owls, who were like ghosts.

Assassin assassination, even if everyone can repulse the first wave of attacks today, they may not be able to survive the second wave, so some black marketeers who are still clear-headed have taken this opportunity to try to find an exit in the dark street that has not yet been breached.

Escaped.

But it is a pity that everyone present is still unaware that all the entrances and exits of the dark streets have been blocked and surrounded by the Lions and Night Owls, and this large-scale dispersion of forces has also led to Galeni

The entrance to the auction house where we are located cannot be attacked for a long time. Maybe the people there are unlucky. In short, everyone does not know that the reason why there are so many people defending there is because the exit there is far away from the Red Thorn Chamber of Commerce.

Next to the underground headquarters, George Fales, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, mobilized a large number of elite mercenaries to resist the Lion Group's attack. The purpose was also to buy time to take the opportunity to move some of the Chamber of Commerce's properties out of the dark streets.

Fars didn’t know why Duke Michael would suddenly attack the dark street, but he was quite confident that he could escape this disaster, because as one of the big black market bosses in the dark street, Fars and his red

The Thorns Chamber of Commerce has several exclusive secret entrance passages. These passages are not the exits to the above-ground city, but lead directly to several inconspicuous farmhouses outside the city, and this passage is the exit modified by the Chamber of Commerce after settling here.

, for this reason, both confidentiality and safety are worth taking a risk for Fals. The reason why I say this is because the people who were sent to explore the road have not come back yet. Maybe the spies have indeed been caught by the Duke, but

It is also possible that he has not returned yet. Although the spies rushed into the passage on horseback, the passage leading to the outside of the city is very long, and the spies will not come back so soon.

Diana actually saw all the little moves on the Red Thorn side. After all, she was leisurely staying on the highest load-bearing beam of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters and looking down at every move below. At the same time, she also used the magic map to

The entire surrounding terrain and living signs are well understood. However, Diana does not care whether the people from the Red Thorn Chamber of Commerce can escape. Anyway, she has disclosed all the entrance and exit information to the Duke, which is naturally included.

The one that Fars planned to use, but how Duke Michael arranged and fortified it was not her concern, because the reason why she stayed in this position was because she wanted to guard the one with a large number of foreign slaves at her feet.

Underground vault.

So far, many people have entered the warehouse to move things, and many people even went to the underground vault to move some valuables. However, Diana felt that this group of people was quite smart, so she chose to carry them lightly in order to escape.

They were precious and soft, and they reluctantly abandoned the large amounts of gold, silver and valuable alien slaves that were inconvenient to carry. Based on this, Diana was too lazy to go down and block their way. She only needed to focus on the safety and safety of the slaves here.

Just wait for Jialani's arrival.

Diana also knew that Galeni had not waited for the thing she wanted most to appear up there, but she had also paid attention to various property storages in the underground streets before. Although she may not have known everything, at least Diana had not been here.

Feeling the unique magic fluctuations of the elf magic sword. Diana is actually very concerned about this matter, but due to her identity, she is really not easy to intervene at will. After all, some of the elf customs are still very ritualistic.

, since Galeni wants to recover those relics alone, no one is allowed to provide excessive assistance to her unless she admits failure. Of course, it is okay to help in some places, such as intelligence and other information.

At this moment, on the street not far away, the leading troops of the Lion Regiment were already approaching the area around the Red Thorn Chamber of Commerce, and Diana also discovered that the person who was leading the charge was an acquaintance. Alberta Pella was at the city gate yesterday.

The centurion of the lion regiment who welcomed him and others into the city.

This was the first time for Diana to see with her own eyes the combat power of the Centurions of the Battle Group of the Principality of Michael, and they were truly powerful and mighty. This tall and strong lady wielded a battle ax carved in the shape of a lion's head and struck with her own eyes.
