Chapter 184: Next(1/2)

Shortly before Abigail entered Kohler's private residence, when the morning bell just rang, two unexpected visitors suddenly appeared in the Allor Theater.

Perhaps the term "visitors" is not quite accurate, because they did not enter the Alor Theater through the main entrance, and upon arrival, they were not welcomed by the members of the Judah Order who lived in the theater.

At this moment, Alfonso and Letterman, who were in a state of embarrassment, were bundled up and thrown into the yard. But beside them stood a group of very unfriendly members of the Judah Order, whether they were armed guards or cultists holding wooden sticks and brooms.

They all regarded these two guys who illegally invaded the "holy place" of the sect as thieves. After all, the two of them did not enter the theater through the main entrance, but from somewhere in the backstage when everyone was cleaning the ceremony on the theater stage early in the morning.

Suddenly popped out of the corner.

The screams of the frightened ordinary believers attracted the guards patrolling around the theater. When these people saw the two guys who had just escaped death, they knocked them to the ground without any explanation.

And tied them up. Of course, among the guards who captured them was the mercenary Bourne who had just made a deal last night. However, no matter how Alfonso and Letterman tried to defend themselves, they were finally picked up and thrown into the theater.

Displayed in the backyard.

Faced with the "warm welcome" from the members of the sect, the two people, who had fled in embarrassment all night, finally chose to stay here honestly without explaining anything. After all, they all knew that they could not communicate with this group of lunatics.

, for this reason, the two of them could only wait silently for the leader of the order, the high priest of the Judah Order, Ketan Osara, to come back in order to get out of this predicament.

After waiting for a long time, the two people, who were hungry and sleepy, saw Ketan, who also looked unkind, walking out of the theater with two guards. They had gone to investigate the secret passage through which the two came in, but judging from the time,

Alfonso felt that they did not go deep into it, maybe they returned in embarrassment without even opening a secret door.

"There is a dead end inside. It seems that you are not telling the truth." Ketan came to the two of them very angry and said: "If you don't want to answer how you sneaked into the sect, then I can only treat you as thieves.

Maybe handing you over to the city guards can be exchanged for some good bounties..."

"Hey, don't be ridiculous, Mr. High Priest, if you hand us over to the Duke's people, then they will come over to eliminate you." Alfonso pretended to be tough and demonstrated: "We were not in a hurry this morning.

appeared in your sect. In fact, we came to your theater backstage last night and witnessed with our own eyes an 'exotic' game you held here last night... Hehehe, then

This kind of bloody and cruel scene is not what a decent religion should be, and I also saw Master Kohler from the Earl of Nassas' family appearing on the scene... Well, a religion that uses evil rituals, in the capital city of the principality.

A bloody and cruel strange ceremony was held, and by the way, he also colluded with the noble heirs...Tsk, tsk, tsk, I think Duke Michael will be very interested in this..."

Before Alfonso finished speaking, a sharp blade was suddenly placed on his neck. The one who drew the knife was the mercenary Bourne. However, it was obvious that he did not want to kill Alfonso directly, but intended to let him

He shut up. However, this behavior seemed to Alfonso to be ecstatic, because it meant that he seemed to have made the right bet, and that this group of people did have some ulterior motive.

But it's a pity that what Alfonso just said was half-truth and half-false, because he didn't know whether the Judas Order was an evil religious group, but he saw it with his own eyes. In fact, Alfonso and Letterman

The two of them did appear backstage last night while the religious group was holding a ceremony. The place where they came out of the secret exit of the underground street last night was a secret exit of the Alor Theater on the ground.

It's just that the two of them came out a little late, so they didn't see the extremely bloody and cruel scene at the opening of the ceremony. The reason why Alfonso said this deliberately was because they later saw two bloody people in the stage altar.

A large bathtub, so Alfonso felt that this matter seemed a bit evil and became suspicious of this small religious group with unknown origins. After all, those religious groups that claimed to be bright and righteous would not be so evil during their ceremonies.

Weird, for this reason Alfonso had to take a gamble and try to use this method to negotiate with this weird sect. Of course, the purpose of the negotiation was not to threaten them to take him in or anything, although at first Alfonso

Fangso does have this idea, but considering the current situation, being able to escape from this ghost place as soon as possible is what Alfonso desires most at the moment.

After hearing Alfonso's threat, Cotan couldn't help but be a little angry, but he still tried his best to tolerate it. But based on the threat just now, Cotan did have the urge to kill and silence. Although Ketan did

Tan himself does not think that the teachings and core of the Judah Order are evil, but after all, it has innate flaws. This very evil ability will indeed make many people feel repelled by it, which is something that Tan has not experienced so far.

Frankly disclose to the principality the reasons for the internal strength of his religion.

Ketan's initial purpose was to develop relationships with as many local nobles as possible, and then slowly demonstrate these powers to them, and then obtain a certain amount of support to contact the upper echelons of the principality step by step. Just like last night's ceremony, by communicating with those

Kohler, the young master of Earl Sass's family, got closer to him, and then resurrected his beloved for him to show the ability and sincerity of the Order. Then, relying on his small circle, he slowly integrated the Judah Order into the aristocratic circle of the principality to obtain more information.

Much support, but before that, the more indecent side cannot be directly exposed to the nobles and people of the principality.

In fact, if it hadn't been for the strong request of the other party, Ketan would not have wanted Master Kohler to follow last night's ceremony to observe it. But anyway, the ceremony went smoothly, and Master Kohler's attitude also seemed very stable. It seemed that for him, that kind of

Bloody scenes are nothing to the rebirth of a loved one. Even he very rationally accepted this method of resurrection. This shows that people's thoughts and care for the deceased are more important.

Based on these thoughts, Ketan did not want the ability of the Juda Order to be exposed prematurely, and he was even less willing to let the iron-blooded Archduke Michael have wrong suspicions about himself and the Juda Order. If this matter was not handled well,

Maybe the Duke would not listen to Kotan's explanation and directly send troops to suppress or eliminate the existence of the order. After all, although Kotan is very devout in his belief in "Blood God Judah", he himself also knows this.

The unknown nature of this power will cause panic and uneasiness within the principality. Because for most people, the power of the underworld itself is incompatible with the living. People can believe in or fear them, but they will never be willing to let this kind of power be incompatible with the living.

A power filled with the aura of death attaches itself to the body or the people around it.

For a time, the murderous intention in Cotan's heart became stronger and stronger after being threatened by Alfonso. After all, he wanted to show a kind and fair side as much as possible for the future of the order, but this kind of face failed when facing evil people.

It brought disaster to the religious order. And just when Cotan was thinking about how to kill people and silence them without arousing the fear of the principality, Alfonso, who was good at observing words and expressions, saw some unkind thoughts of the other party. But Alfonso

He was not trembling with fear like Letterman, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.

"Do you want to kill us to silence us?" Alfonso looked at Cotan with great disdain, because from some deliberate provocations just now, he noticed that the other party did not seem to be a courageous person, at least in some matters.

Too hesitant. For this reason, Alfonso saw the opportunity and said quickly before Bourne's sharp blade came close to his neck: "Even if you kill me, you will still be caught by Duke Michael!"

"What do you mean?" Mercenary Bourne put away the blade in his hand very neatly and asked threateningly: "Speak clearly, or I will let you die silently and painfully!"

"Hey, you should know that I am a black marketeer. After all, we just completed a transaction last night." After Alfonso finished speaking to Bourne, he turned to look at Cotan and said: "Maybe you don't know yet, just

Not long after completing this transaction, Duke Michael's Lion Guard invaded the underground dark street. The entire dark street black market has been sealed and suppressed, and I... Although the two of us escaped by chance, we were also captured by the Duke.

The wanted criminal over there."

After Alfonso finished talking about what happened in the dark street last night, everyone at the scene was slightly shocked, but it did not cause too much trouble. After all, the members of the Human Cult here were either outsiders or ordinary locals.

People, places like dark streets usually have nothing to do with them. Some people are even surprised to hear about the existence of dark streets.

Of course, Cotan, Byrne and a few additional people heard the meaning behind Alfonso's words, so they found an excuse to disperse the crowd and took the tied Alfonso and Letterman to a nearby store.

In a small warehouse.

"Hey, you are indeed smart people." Alfonso said happily: "I like to deal with smart people."

"Stop talking!" Ketan sat down on the box that Bourne found for him very displeased and asked: "The secret passage you escaped from is a dead end..."

"That's just a one-way exit. It can't be opened from the outside." Alfonso confidently said with his head held high: "Although the existence of the secret passage is very secret, among the people who cleared the secret street last night

There are also night owls... You know the night owls, right? I think you should also know how sophisticated their tracking methods are, so I think they will find this secret passage within today and follow it to find this way. By that time

Even if you kill us and silence us, they will still trace you, and then I think your little secret will probably be..."

Alfonso quickly shut up and stopped talking, but he still looked at Bourne very provocatively and smiled slyly. Because from Bourne's expression, he found that he seemed to know a lot about Night Owl, but a servant like him

The soldiers who showed such alertness when they heard Ye Xiao's name may have had some grudges with Ye Xiao in the past or... were criminals wanted by Ye Xiao.

This possibility is not impossible. After all, although Night Owl is an organization created by Archduke Michael, it is also a deterrent in many fields behind the scenes. For this reason, when dealing with many things, Night Owl will arrest some people who do not have the energy to find them.

The prisoners were given to the black market or other assassin circles, so after seeing Bourne's performance, Alfonso first thought that this guy was probably a wanted criminal on the Nite Owl side.

This seems to be an unexpected gain for Alfonso, because it basically shows that the Joda Order is also a place where evil and evil practices hide evil. So the more this happens, the less likely the high priest of Kotan will kill people easily, at least.

He would not choose to attack in his own lair.

Cotan thought anxiously for a while, but the more caring he showed, the stronger Alfonso's confidence would be. Even in terms of momentum, there was a tendency to overtake the opponent from the initial disadvantage, and even this

His confidence made him forget how tired and hungry his body was.

"That secret passage..." Ke Tan hesitated for a long time before he shook his head helplessly and changed his words: "Forget it, I don't want to know the origin of that place. Anyway, this theater was a gift, even if someone from Ye Xiao comes here.

Then we can only let Master Kohler deal with it...and you...what are you going to do?"

"It's very simple. We don't have any conflicts. You let me go, and then when Ye Xiao comes over, you can explain the reason directly. Anyway, you don't know about the black market, so just confess to them as appropriate." Al Fang

Suo looked down at his arms and added: "I have some money here. If it doesn't work, you can also say that the two of us paid for you to let us go. Anyway, you religious groups are basically nothing to the principality.

You are the type who only sees money, so doing this will make Ye Xiao pay less attention to you."

Cotan looked at Alfonso in surprise. Although he didn't trust such a smooth-talking businessman, for the current situation, this seemed to be the safest and least dangerous way. For this reason, Cotan was a little worried.

He stood up anxiously and walked back and forth for a while, then he had no choice but to nod helplessly at Bourne, and Bourne also walked over with some dissatisfaction and took out a money bag from Alfonso's arms. The money in it was valuable on the black market.

For a businessman, it is not even considered as pocket money, but for ordinary people or for the Judah Order, it is indeed a huge sum of money. For this reason, Ke Tan could only nod his head reluctantly and walked out.

Bourne will take care of the rest. As for the whereabouts of those two people, the less people know about them, the better. Ketan himself can never know anyway, because organizations like Night Owl usually have some weird lie detection methods.

If the other party comes to ask questions and you lie, it will indeed cause big trouble. As for the other problem, that is the stage ceremony site that has not been completely cleaned, so Ke Tan plans to go over and speed up the dismantling of the ceremony site with everyone.

, by the way, to cover up some sensitive things to a certain extent.

After a while, the embarrassed Alfonso and Letterman hurriedly ran out of the Alor Theater. Fortunately, the buildings around the theater were all uninhabited and abandoned old houses, so it didn't take too long to walk here.

Even so, the two of them escaped quite quickly, because Alfonso's guess about Night Owl just now was not groundless, so they needed to seize the time to find a suitable place to hide. And just before Alfonso and the two of them

Just after leaving the theater, Bourne nervously found High Priest Kotan who was busy in front, and after saying a few words with an apologetic look, he quietly left the theater and went elsewhere. At the same time, he was about to

Near noon, as expected, a group of ill-intentioned Night Owl assassins rushed out from the backstage of the theater that had been packed away.

At the same time, at the other end of the city, in a mansion that had been transformed into the headquarters of the Norman Order, Church Bishop Tyler Taxa was reprimanding his subordinates with a tantrum.

Originally, this group of subordinates only caused some minor troubles due to mistakes in their work in the church. Normally, the Bishop of Taxa would only need to say one or two words, but today, somehow, the bishop was very

Angry, as if this group of people had done some heinous act, they were spitting everywhere. However, Taksa was fat and weak, so he didn't hold on for long before he returned to the dormitory angrily.

However, before leaving, he was so violent that he smashed an expensive porcelain tea cup into pieces.

In fact, many people know the reason why Taksa is angry, because last night he brought a group of people to the banquet sponsored by Algasburg with full confidence. Their purpose was naturally to cause trouble, although due to their status

Taksa didn't dare to disrupt the entire banquet, but there was nothing wrong with meeting the people of Algasburg and humiliating them in a harmless way to make them a laughing stock.

But ideals are always like a dream. From the time they entered the banquet venue until they left, let alone provoking the members of Algasburg, they could not even get within ten steps of these people.

Because the people in Algasburg are all distinguished guests, the people who can chat with them in the banquet hall are all upper-level nobles. The lower-level nobles are not allowed to be treated except for the close followers of the upper-level nobles.

They are allowed to be close to their circle. Although the hierarchy in the Principality of Michael is not that solid, the etiquette of superiority and inferiority is still very strict.
