Chapter 220 Lady Merlin and the Avalon Witches
(Sorry, I have something to do today and I will update it late, and I will continue to update five tomorrow.)
London in the fifth century AD was far less prosperous than later generations.
At this time, there were less than 30,000 residents in London, and the roads in ordinary residential areas were muddy, and there was a strong smell of urine and shit.
Only the prosperous rich and noble areas are slightly better.
But due to the times, it is only a little better.
The roads are flatter and the houses are more luxurious.
Most importantly, there are employed workers here who specialize in collecting and cleaning up the waste of rich people and nobles, so that the roads in the noble areas will not be as full of shit and urine as ordinary civilians.
On the street.
A figure who was covered in a black robe, with only a little chin that could not even tell the difference between men and women slowly walked by.
What's strange is that there are obviously many pedestrians on the street, but it seems that no one can see the mysterious man in black robe. Even if someone passes by the man in black robe, he will subconsciously stagger the man in black robe, but he does not notice anyone beside him.
The man in black robe walked into a rich man's manor and took off his hood.
Under the hood is a beautiful mature woman's face, her eyebrows are as beautiful as a little goblin, and like a legendary succubus, confusing people's minds.
"Dear Merlin, you're finally here."
A luxuriously dressed lady walked out of the manor and saw the beautiful woman in front of the door, couldn't help but sigh in relief: "Is things going well?"
Merlin took the warm black tea handed over by the lady, and opened her rosy lips as if she was covered with honey. She smiled and said, "Arthur Pandragorn is about to arrive in London, and the gear of fate will eventually start. This will be the legend of King Arthur and the glory of Avalon."
When she said this, the slender willow leaves frowned and said in a deep voice: "The one from the Stran family is here, and I'm worried that he might interfere with it."
The lady's face was a little gloomy when she heard the name of Baron Stran.
Although the Strand family was established for a short time, it is very famous in England. It is rumored that the Strand family controls time and space, and can see through the past, present, and future.
Such an opponent, even those of them, who were born in Avalon, had to be a little afraid.
"If the people of the Strand family dare to make trouble, there will naturally be someone to deal with him. The most urgent task now is to ensure Arthur's safety." The noble lady pondered, with a look of disgust on her face, and she whispered: "What are the movements in the Holy See?"
Merlin's charming eyes flashed with disdain and said coldly: "His dear Bishop of Canterbre, our dear Bishop, is still dreaming of becoming a Pope. With his pitiful and stupid mind, it will not hinder our plans."
Merlin said this and asked with concern: "How is the situation in Avalon?"
When the lady heard Merlin mention Avalon, her eyebrows frowned and sighed: "The situation is very bad now, and the dwarves have lost the territory to survive. Although the stone giant has no intention to continue to expand, we cannot place Avalon's safety on the vague wish that the stone giant will satisfy.
The most important thing now is to find the son of fate who can control the artifact. Only the inheritor of the ancient artifact can control the power of the gods, destroy the terrible stone giants, and restore Avalon's peace and peace."
When Merlin heard that Avalon's situation was so bad, she couldn't help but look worried.
The rise of the Holy See made them lose the soil on which Europe relies on to survive.
If there is another problem in the Holy Land of Avalon, what awaits them will be endless wandering and even complete extinction!
This is not an exaggeration or an impossible thing.
Since the Holy See was officially established as the state religion of Rome decades ago, I don’t know how many religions have been persecuted and massacred by the Holy See in recent years. How many witches and magical organizations have been completely destroyed by the Holy See.
The Holy See's tolerance for pagans can be completely zero!
If England is not the desolate and remote barbarian land, and even the Roman emperors were too lazy to pay attention to, they would not even find their last place to live.
After a brief silence, Merlin said: "Maybe we can try to pull the Strand family in."
The lady interrupted Merlin and said coldly: "Impossible, we Avalon Witch will never allow a male witch to join. Merlin, you should be glad. It was me who heard this today, not our great leader, otherwise you know what punishment you will be given?"
Meilin's expression changed slightly and he did not dare to continue speaking.
Although she has some status in the Avalon Witch Society, she is not enough to compare with the nine members in charge of the Witch Society and the supreme leader.
The lady comforted: "Dear Merlin, this is not something I deliberately targeted you, but the tradition of our Avalon Witch Society. The tradition cannot be changed and has been our purpose for thousands of years. Once we lose traditions and rules, it means that the Avalon Witch Society will usher in a huge change or even destruction.
Now the Holy See has completely occupied Rome and is raging in Europe with the power of the Roman Empire. We must solve all hidden dangers before the Holy See has been aware of us, otherwise what awaits us will be the endless pursuit of the Holy See."
Merlin sighed and said, "Dear Ms. Gerfanie, please forgive me for my previous recklessness."
Gerfanie smiled and said, "Go, my child, guide the son of destiny to pull up the sword of the king and fulfill his mission. May Avalon be with you."
Gerfanie made a unique etiquette, put her hands together in a special posture in front of her, and bowed to pay tribute.
Merlin returned the favor in the same position, then wore a hood and disappeared at the end of the street.
Gerfanie watched Merlin's departure, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared, her eyes becoming a little colder.
Strand!
No, the Strand family is not simple. If that person really interferes in this matter, it will be a great threat to the witch.
King Arthur's plan concerns Avalon's life and death, and there must be no mistake in this matter.
Gerfanie's eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes were covered in coldness.
She murmured, and a divine owl flew into the room.
Gerfanie whispered a few words to the owl. The owl showed a humanized expression, and flew quickly to the already dim sky, disappearing into the vast night sky.
Three hours later, a number of witches in grey robes entered London.
Their arrival did not attract the attention of others at all.
Even when they were walking on the noisy streets, no one noticed that the legendary evil witch had just walked by.
Time passed quickly in such an atmosphere, and the days when the Holy Sword selected the king were getting closer and closer.
At this time, London was unprecedentedly noisy.
