Chapter 275 The Mysterious Woman, Where Does It Come From?
But I think there is no need for him to lie to us on such a small matter, after all, we have no leverage to threaten him..."
"Well, that's true."
Romani frowned and said, "Anyway, I will notify the brothers below and monitor him closely. If he dares to play tricks, we will use the holy artifacts and holy stones to kill him."
The two old wizards whispered for a moment, reached a consensus, and turned to leave.
...
At night, Li Ang rests in bed.
It was pitch black outside the window, with only sporadic moonlight shining on the roof, reflecting the dim candlelight in the room, and Anglia, who was sleeping soundly at the table.
Li Ang stretched, sat up from the bed, stretched his muscles, looked around, and found a chair at random to sit down.
Tonight, he still did not practice witchcraft, but used the power of faith stored in the "Elemental Charm" to meditate for half the night.
Li Ang opened his eyes and listened attentively, making sure that there was no movement nearby.
He opened the window, jumped out, jumped up to the balcony on the second floor, and jumped into the grass.
In the darkness, Li Ang quietly approached the wooden arch bridge, circled the entire church, and carefully observed the surroundings.
In addition to the empty church, there are high walls on the northeast, southwest and front of the church.
In the deepest part of the wall, there are three wooden fence gates.
The three doors were all closed and looked like nothing special.
Li Ang took out the magic box in his arms, opened the lid, and pulled out a silver-white metal plate from inside.
He narrowed his eyes, glanced at the patterns on it, pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door.
squeak - crunch -
The heavy and heavy wooden door opened slowly, and a chill came over the face.
"who?"
Accompanied by the icy mechanical voice, two armored soldiers appeared in front of Li Ang.
They wore armor and pointed hats, and on the helmets there was an iron plate that read "Legion of the Holy Shield".
Holy Shield?
No wonder it looks familiar, it should be a member of the Holy Shield Council...
"Please let me go."
Li Ang stood at the door and said calmly: "I am a member of the Saints Alliance, and I have been ordered to test the authenticity of this sacred object."
The two soldiers froze for a moment, exchanged glances with each other, "Please wait a moment."
They closed the wooden door, quickly ran into the next room, and shouted, "Come on! The envoys of the Saints Alliance are here!"
As soon as the words were finished, a tall figure rushed over quickly, opened the door curtain, and walked in.
The person who came was wearing a black cloak, covering his face and figure, only a pair of green eyes could be seen.
Her voice was hoarse and dry, "What's the matter?"
"A messenger came to detect the holy object."
A soldier replied, adding, "To help us retrieve the relic."
"oh?"
The black-robed woman immediately showed an interested look, stepped forward, walked towards Li Ang, and asked hoarsely, "Who are you? What are you here for?"
"My last name is...uh..."
Li Ang thought for a moment, and said seriously: "... Imerson Stark. I am a scientist and alchemist, and I am here mainly to study sacred objects."
"oh,"
The black-robed woman nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "What's your name?"
Li Ang opened his mouth to announce own's English name, but suddenly reacted, and changed his words: "Call me Alfred."
He used to be a Chinese American, but for some reason, he changed his name and surname. As for the name Alfred, it was found on the Internet before leaving.
"Mr Imerson,"
The woman in black walked up to Li Ang, stared into his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I need your assurance that we will dedicate the holy relic to you intact, but you cannot take it away.
If you can't do it, there's a good chance you'll die at my hands. "
Hearing this, Li Ang stared back at her without flinching, "You try."
The black-robed woman frowned slightly, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, her right arm suddenly raised, and her knuckles cracked.
"You can try it yourself."
Li Ang said calmly, "This is the Holy Shield Castle, the headquarters of the Holy See. If you kill me here, you will never get out of here."
As he spoke, he spread his palms, and five bright silver coins appeared in his palm.
"I won't die."
Li Ang shook his left hand, "Also, I don't need to take the holy object."
As he said that, he stared straight into the eyes of the black-robed woman, and said in a deep voice: "I just want to tell you that I do have the power of a Transcendent, not an ordinary human being.
If you can't trust me, I can leave immediately and never return to the Holy Shield Villa. "
After finishing speaking, he restrained his expression and turned to leave.
The voice of the woman in black came faintly, "Wait, I haven't decided whether to believe you yet. You put this ring on first, and then I will believe your sincerity."
"ring?"
Li Ang stopped, looked down at his palm, and suddenly found that the coin in his palm had turned into a delicate silver ring.
He was stunned. This is... the legendary treasure chest?
Although Li Ang had been prepared for a long time, he guessed that the legendary treasure chest might be in the hands of the Templars, but when he actually saw it, his heart still couldn't help beating wildly.
Li Ang swallowed, suppressed his excitement, and said as calmly as possible: "I don't like wearing rings, especially this kind of silver jewelry."
"I didn't let you wear it." The black-robed woman said indifferently.
Li Ang hesitated for a moment, but finally took off the silver ring and put it aside.
The black-robed woman looked at the ring, seemed quite satisfied with it, then took out a long rope from her waist pocket and threw it to Li Ang.
"What is this?" Li Ang wondered.
"leggings."
The black-robed woman said lightly, "Tie it to your thigh, and you can move freely like me.
Also, no matter what happens, never take it off. "
"Why?"
Li Ang asked in surprise, "Is this thing dangerous?"
The black-robed woman chuckled, "It's not dangerous, you'll know later.
Remember, don't untie it. "
After finishing speaking, the black-robed woman turned around and walked back to the door, closing the curtain.
Li Ang looked at the brassy disc, hesitated for a few seconds, and tied it to her leg as she ordered.
A strong stabbing pain hit him, making him let go subconsciously.
The copper plate rolled to the ground and hit the corner of the table, making a loud bang.
He bent down to pick up the copper plate and wiped it with his sleeve, but it became more and more dirty, even stained with blood.
Li Ang frowned and looked at the copper plate, not understanding what it was.
"Is this a holy object?"
At this time, the voice of the black-robed woman came from the room, her tone was full of disdain: "It looks ugly, it doesn't look like a holy object."
Li Ang shook his head, didn't say much, and walked straight into the house.
The room is furnished simply, with a wooden bed, two stools, a stone tea set, and nothing else.
The woman in black sat on a stool, looking at Li Ang with her shoulders crossed.
Li Ang glanced at her, walked to the side of the bed, put his hand under the pillow, and felt a touch of warmth.
