Chapter 66 The ring warlock squad passing by
The black hair maid hurried from the manor door Follow the gravel walk in the courtyard to the grand three-storey mansion. If Shade remembers correctly, this is on the third floor of the Lucky Southern Cross Club. Give him the relic [Vampire Ring] for "the lady" maid.

"'The lady' is here too?"

Shade stood at the long table and looked up at the manor house not far away, only to see a few people standing on the terrace on the second floor. A young girl in a dress talking to each other.

One of the girls with long red hair with a glass of wine noticed Shade's gaze and pointed out Shade's direction to her friends.

He saw the girls on the terrace on the second floor all looking here. Although he didn't want to get into trouble, Shade nodded slightly, and left the position as if nothing had happened.

"It's really a novel experience to see so many hair colors at once."

He thought to himself when he came to the courtyard at the back of the manor.

Shade doesn't know exactly how much the Lakeview Manor covers, but even if you don't include the racetrack connected to the manor and the nearby farms, the area here is beyond the imagination of outsiders.

The garden behind the house is divided into different parts. Going to the rear, the manor is directly connected to Lake Schluch. There are even small wharfs and boats on the lake. Shade has seen young men and women boating on the lake with candles.

He didn't get too close to the lake, not because he didn't want to enjoy the beauty of March in the night sky, hanging over the blue waves, but simply because the lake was too cold.

And the garden itself is enough for Shade to see the world, but I don't know if this is a routine, there will always be young lovers drilling deep into the garden. Although not doing indecent things, just telling each other on the bench, it still embarrassed Shade who was walking around.

He walks around, purely to gain more knowledge and better adapt to life in this world. Deliberately looking for something to do to kill time, but unconsciously there are only the last few business cards left, which are for Lavender Baron's friends and don't have to be handed out.

So I thought about finding a place to sit and saw that there were already many gentlemen and girls walking among the flowers in the garden maze, so I left this area and thought about going there. Take a break under the tulip bush statue.

But before taking a few steps, they saw a group of people appear from the side road surrounded by flowers on the side of the manor. That is the side door of the manor garden connecting to the horse farm. They were carrying an old steward with a kerosene lamp. Under the guidance of the dressed old man, he hurried in.

It was more than a dozen church personnel with serious faces and uniform black coats. The reason for judging that this is a member of the church, because Augustus priest recently talked about the dress and weapon requirements when the church ring warlock squad appears.

While Shade didn't see the church's holy emblem, and therefore couldn't tell which Orthodox church these people belonged to, they were undoubtedly dangerous.

Thinking in my heart, I naturally turned to the other direction on the path in front of the garden and passed a group of people.

While passing by, the voice in my head reminded the elements of "Miracle", "Enlightenment" and "Whisper" at the same time, which once again confirmed Shade's conjecture about their identity.

"However, if each ring warlock and the Orthodox Church team can be so clearly reminded, then they have any secret operations at all, and it is not only you who can do it. Right? Claiming to be another lady of mine."

[Do you need me to repeat that? ]

"It's because my soul is sensitive."

Shade in the heart said, then heard the woman's sweet laughter again.

In the team of more than ten people, the leader is a middle-aged man who is about the same height as Shade, but strong like a middle-aged man who can kill a Shade and an orange cat Mia with one punch. The majority of the squad members behind him are men. Of the two women, one looks in her mid-thirties with purple lips; the other is probably under eighteen, with long brown hair, even if it's Shade. , You can also see that she is a little nervous compared to the others.

"Is this the first time to go on a mission with the team? Why is it a little familiar, oh, yes, I met her when I went to pick up Mia in Purple Iris Lane that day, and it was strange at the time (Note)."

Shade thought to himself, without looking back at the entire group. It was the voice in his head that spoke, of course not to make fun of Shade. Pay attention to the strange girl:
[Outlander, you have seen fate. ]

"en? Did I see it? When did I see it?"

He thought in his head puzzledly, but kept moving forward, for fear of being caught. The ring warlock squad of the Orthodox Church as the bad guys.

"But think about it carefully, why am I nervous? I don't seem to have done anything bad, I'm a good person."

He slowed down, but still didn't look back.

[It's hard to explain, meeting her many times makes you discover the difference of a strange girl. Even if I don't say it, you should feel the difference in her. ]

The voice murmured.

"Can you express it in a way I can understand?"

Shade asked rhetorically, eyes pretending to be curious about the blue-winged butterfly in the flowers ahead.

I thought I still couldn't get an answer, didn't expect this time, the woman's voice was actually understanding:
[The chosen person of destiny appears here, which seems to indicate that there is a major event happened. 】

"'The lady' was present, and the team of the Orthodox Church also appeared. Something is really wrong, so, do I need to leave?"

He asked in the heart , but got no answer again.

Shade knew she had to make up her mind and couldn't rely on the voice of the woman who said "I am you".

But after thinking about it, he didn't leave. This is of course not because of the at least half pound of the reward and the unreimbursed fare, but because it would be very eye-catching to leave abruptly, and he made up his mind not to approach any dangerous places and not take the initiative to contact trouble.

"This place is so big, as long as I don't wander around and deliberately pursue danger, is there a warlock squad from the Church of the Orthodox present, the danger can still affect me?"

He thought to himself, and returned to the long table full of food again.

Even when strangers gather together, they can talk about common topics. Shade, who was thinking of finishing his supper ahead of schedule, was also unconsciously involved in discussions about the "feasibility of immigration to the new continent".

The new continent, which was discovered by the great geographical discovery fifty years ago, is vast in area and rich in products, and the hidden places are full of strange ancient civilization relics and even tombs.

But so far, no trace of any living Aboriginal people has ever been found in the new continent. Therefore, the scholars of the old continent, the northern kingdom of Delarion and the southern kingdom of Kasenrik, agreed that this was not normal, and the population could not be easily moved there. For this reason, so far, there has been no large-scale official colonization between the two continents, only a large number of military pioneers Legion, adventurers and ambitious, bringing their families and friends to the rich land.

The kingdom officials are also considering this issue. It has been more than 50 years since the great geographical discovery, the first generation of adventurers who set foot on the new continent are old, and some people even spend their whole lives on the new continent. , but no problem. Therefore, whether official population migration can be carried out has become a hot topic in the past decade.

The men at the long dinner table at Lake View Manor, well-dressed and cool in the early summer night breeze, debated the issue vigorously without any substance, and the novel point of view made the Shade is nodded a lot and knows that no matter what era, people love this kind of talk.
