Alexandria, located on the north side of the estuary of the Jinshui River, is an important port for the United Kingdom of Borui connecting the seven islands. In order to build Alexandria, five powerful lords jointly launched the famous Murloc War. The war lasted for eighty years

In the past few years, more than 20,000 human soldiers were killed or injured, and more than 150,000 murlocs were wiped out. The blood of both sides dyed the river beach red, so Alexandria was also called the Red Port.

Although the war was victorious, the strength of the five families declined significantly. In order to protect themselves, they finally united and founded the United Kingdom of Borui. With the acquisition of Alexandria, the Kingdom of Borui finally climbed onto the seven large towers at the mouth of the Jinshui River.

Islands, and received huge returns. The seven islands have amazing reserves of fine gold mines, precious juniper berries, fertile land that crops twice a year, and endless catches.

The rich products of the seven connected islands allowed the Kingdom of Borui to grow rapidly, and Alexandria became increasingly prosperous. Countless caravans and free people flocked to Alexandria. So far, the permanent population of Alexandria exceeds 200,000, of which free people account for

More than half.

The Kingdom of Borui does not have a powerful royal family. Instead, the five major families jointly discuss affairs and take turns to govern. Therefore, the forces within Red Harbor are intertwined, which gives the free people organizations the soil to survive. Crime is rampant in the city, and the numerous gangs have brought many

Public security issues. Whenever the ruling family wanted to manage the security of the port, they would be restrained by other families. Over time, the port city was strictly divided into three areas, the aristocratic area, the trading area, and the civilian area.

In the center of the aristocratic district of Alexandria stands a magnificent cathedral. The thirty-meter-high dome of the cathedral is awe-inspiring, but it also looks particularly deserted.

It was afternoon, and there were only two noble men and women and a few church attendants in the empty church hall. The tall and tall young man pointed at a huge white glazed rock angel statue and said: "Eva, this statue represents...

The scene of the Archangel of Radiance suppressing the Witch King."

"Yes, Vincent. It was the great Lord of Glory who saved us humans, for which I deeply admire." Eva responded softly.

Looking at the beautiful and enchanting Eva, Vincent felt hot in his heart, but the perfunctory tone in her tone made Vincent a little embarrassed.

It is rare for nobles to visit the church with their favorite female companions. For nobles who lack faith, this is obviously not a good place to fall in love, but Vincent is different, he is a paladin.

For thousands of years, the Paladin family has continuously intermarried with ordinary knight families, forming many branches. Vincent is a descendant of one of them, and Eva is a branch of the noble family of the Borui Kingdom, and is also Vincent's.

The object of marriage. In Red Harbor, Vincent saw Eva for the first time and was fascinated by her beauty. Although their marriage was destined, Vincent still longed to win the heart of his fiancée. However, this was obviously not the paladin's.

Strengths.

Vincent could think that Eva did not refuse his invitation just out of etiquette. Now, Eva's lack of interest made Vincent feel regretful. He was thinking about how to regain his fiancée's favor with him.

Seeing the prayer platform inlaid with white crystal in the center of the church, Vincent had an idea. He said to the object of his affection: "Eva, until now, evil wizards still threaten the world. It is the mission of our Paladins to eliminate wizards.

.Have you ever seen a ritual to purify a wizard?"

Eva shook her head. She had just turned 18, and the last purification ceremony in Red Harbor was more than fifty years ago. The wizard was a legendary monster to Eva.

"Dear Vincent, have you ever killed wizards? What do they look like? Are they like the rumors, that wizards have horns on their heads and a poisonous snake tail trailing behind them?" Eva asked curiously.

road.

The intimate title made Vincent very happy. He smiled and said: "Dear Eva, although wizards are the children of the devil, they are just like ordinary people, with neither horns nor tails. As a lord of radiance, the Saint

Knight, I am very eager to destroy the evil wizard with my own hands. Unfortunately, wizards are very cunning now. They are hidden among ordinary people and it is difficult to distinguish them."

Seeing Eva's disappointed expression, Vincent quickly said: "Wizards can hide from ordinary people, but they cannot avoid the eyes of the Lord. Our church has a demon identification ritual that can find those evil ones among ordinary people.

.Of course, there are very few wizards now, and most of them are hiding in some deserted place. Otherwise, I must let the evil wizards learn the power of the holy sword."

"Demon identification ceremony? My dear, can you let me see it?" Eva's eyes lit up and she said coquettishly.

Half of Vincent's bones were frozen. Without thinking, he ordered the waiter on the side: "You go and get ready. I'm going to hold a prayer to identify demons."

The paladin's order stunned several attendants. A clever attendant reacted first and ran out of the hall quickly. After a while, the priest in charge of the church walked in with a steady expression.

Father Ram was very annoyed. The magic identification ceremony could not be held casually. In fact, the magic identification ceremony could only lock the wizard after the wizard used witchcraft. If the wizard had not performed witchcraft, there was nothing the magic identification ceremony could do.

Distinguish between wizards and ordinary people. The normal procedure is to find traces of witchcraft and then hold a magic identification ceremony. Each ceremony will consume 12 white crystals, which is a lot of money. Now, the Paladin

In order to please his sweetheart, he actually had to hold a demon identification ceremony. Naturally, the presiding priest Ram was very dissatisfied.

Although Father Ram was unwilling to be taken advantage of, he was also unwilling to offend the rising Paladin. He pulled Vincent aside and whispered: "12 pieces of white crystal."

Vincent's eyesight went dark. Twelve pieces of white crystal were worth 6,000 gold soles, which was equivalent to his two years' subsidy. Looking back at Miss Eva who looked expectant, Vincent gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to do it!"

Under Father Ram's singing, the white crystals on the prayer table lit up one by one. The soft holy light washed everyone's body and mind from the outside to the inside. The sacred and warm feeling made everyone smile heartily.

Only Vincent smiled a little reluctantly.

Suddenly, the white crystal turned into a dazzling blood red, and a set of runes were generated in the blood light. Everyone froze in place as if being stared at by a hydra.

"Dear, what's going on? Is there a wizard?" Miss Eva covered her cherry mouth with one hand and held Vincent's arm with the other. Her delicate body kept shaking, and she didn't know whether it was excitement or excitement.

fear.

Vincent was completely unaware of his fiancée's actions. Beauty, love, and the 6,000 gold sols were all forgotten by him. At this moment, there were only bloody flames in his eyes.

"Sound the alarm! Summon the paladins!" Father Ram shouted, his voice hoarse and sharp.

"Don't sound the alarm, let's go quietly!" Vincent grabbed the attendant who was running out and said in a deep voice.

In Honggang civilian area, at the end of a deep alley, a cracked wooden signboard creaked and swayed, and it read: Everlasting Sleep Hotel.

The Eversleep Inn is in a bad location, there is no business, and there will be no business. It is the home of the Black Scythe.

The Black Scythe has a resounding name, but it is a small gang that is not popular. Although it is not popular, there are still a group of extremely vicious desperadoes who make a living here. But from today on, these desperadoes no longer need to eat.

A slender man sat on an old bar chair, wiping his slender fingers with a white handkerchief, his expression focused and careful, as if the twenty-some corpses on the ground had no effect on him.

"Bach! You bastard! You killed all the men I managed to gather with great difficulty!" Halman, the boss of the Black Scythe, stared at the man as if nothing had happened.

"Sir, Congressman, if you have demagogues working for you, don't you have as much rubbish as you want?" Bach said nonchalantly.

"You still know that I am a member of parliament! Kill all my people when you come in! Do you still have parliament in your eyes?" Harman roared in a low voice, but it revealed the smell of sternness.

Bach casually threw the handkerchief on the ground and said nonchalantly: "How can I talk to the congressman about business without killing all these annoying guys?"

"If Fleet were here, how dare you be so arrogant?" Harman said bitterly.

"If Soul Breaker were here, of course I wouldn't dare to be arrogant. I wouldn't even come." Bach sneered.

Harman's expression changed, and he asked sarcastically: "What do you mean?"

"The Soul Crusher has died in Black Castle Town in the Centaur Hills! The deputy speaker asked me to ask you, why did the Soul Crusher go to the Centaur Hills?" Bach looked at the pale Halman with cold eyes.

"How is this possible? How is this possible! How could Flit die? He is a Soul Crusher! He has killed even the Paladin of the Inquisition! Who killed him?" Halman said incoherently.

Bach said coldly: "Fleet is dead. This is a great loss for the Parliament! I am here to investigate this matter. Now, please tell me, why did you ask Fleet to go to Centaur Hill?"

Halman was silent for a long time and then said: "I don't know what Fleet is doing in the Centaur Hills? I ordered him to assassinate those who have awakened the blood of the Moon Elf."

"You are crazy! Those who have awakened the blood of the Moon Elf are all nobles! You will kill us all!" Bach grabbed Harman's collar and said coldly.

"What do you know?!" He slapped Bach's hand away and Halman said enthusiastically: "Only I can listen to the voice of the Lord. The great King of Shadows wants me to kill those who have awakened the blood of the Moon Elf. I must follow the Lord's voice.

My will, those old guys don’t believe my words at all, they will regret it one day!”

Bach wanted to strangle the idiot in front of him to death. The King of Shadows was a fictitious master created to unite the rookie wizards. His counterpart was the Lord of Radiance. The top brass of the Shadow Council knew that this was a lie. Only this lunatic took it seriously.

Already.

"You idiot! You will expose us all to the inquisition!" Bach cursed through gritted teeth.

Halman smiled proudly, "Don't worry, I have a perfect scapegoat, and the church can't find us! I'll let the demagogues..."

"Bang!" The door of the hotel was kicked open, and a paladin wearing armor and holding a long sword broke in, "Heretic! Accept the fate of being purified!"

Seeing the stunned expressions of the two wizards, Vincent was extremely excited. The church's clergy are divided into five levels. Each time you upgrade to a level, you can obtain new divine spells and more abundant holy power. Want to improve the clergy level?

There are two methods: unwavering faith, and obtaining divine grace. Compared with ordinary clergy, most paladins improve their magical level by obtaining divine grace. Divine grace can be obtained by fighting against alien races and purifying wizards.

In Vincent's eyes, these two wizards are the qualifications for him to improve his level of Paladin. Vincent persuaded the priest to carry out this secret arrest on the pretext of not alerting the wizards. In fact, he did not want to arrest these two wizards at all.

When he goes back, he will kill the wizard with the sword, so that he can gain the most divine favor.

"The lackeys of the false gods! Go to hell! Darkness will eventually come!"

Harman yelled crazily, his eyes turned pitch black, streaks of black light emitted from his body, and the fierce explosion instantly overwhelmed Bach and Vincent.

After the explosion, the disgraced paladin stood dazed in the ruins of the hotel. The double protection of the Holy Armor and Fighting Spirit allowed him to survive, but the wizard's fanatical eyes made Vincent shudder.
