Mysteries

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, after getting up the next day, the dwarf's attitude towards him became better again, and he took the initiative to untie his rope, let him relax his limbs, and went downstairs to eat freely.But Neia felt even worse.Everything the dwarf did showed that he couldn't escape the determination in his palm.

On the road again, the dwarf didn't even tie him to the horse, and explained his previous behavior.

oh!Afraid that he would fall off the horse.Then don't put him on horseback.

Neia ignored his almost ingratiating smile, and turned her head to look at the distant scenery.

Seeing him turn his head, a trace of gloom flashed across the dwarf's face, but he suppressed it quickly and led him on the road.

Neia kept guessing where the dwarf took her.Since the magic circle is not used, there are only five choices: Gunagasla, Santu, Shamanlier, Tangerli, and Senrisgar.If possible, he hoped it would be Senrisgar or Tangerli, at least closer to Longzan.He was annoyed at his ignorance. He had already heard the name of the town during the conversation with the mercenary group last night, but because of his ignorance, he still had no idea where they were heading.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the mystery to be solved.

They came to the junction of Gulan and Sangtu.

Santu, the answer was really beyond his expectations.A believer of the Dark God ran to the headquarters of the God of Light. Apart from madness, all he could think of was conspiracy.

The dwarf came prepared, carrying a pile of documents. The soldier glanced at Neia's face before letting him go.

If it was an ordinary human trafficker, Neia would probably wink and ask for help, but a seventh-level knight...keep silent is hello, hello, hello, everyone.

After entering the Sangtu Realm, the state of the dwarf has undergone a great change.One is that he is not as relaxed as before. He is allowed to communicate with others, probably because he is afraid that he will expose the secret of his dark god believer. One is that his spirit has become extremely excited, and he can't help laughing when he looks at Neia several times. .

This kind of excitement greatly troubled Neia, and he began to have trouble sleeping and eating.

The dwarf noticed it, but didn't take it seriously.It is still the supply of two meals a day, you can eat or not.

A kidnapper, a hostage, carefully maintains a delicate balance.Neia was afraid of offending the other party and being torn up and silenced, while the dwarf seemed to have some reason and didn't want to leave a bad impression on him.

Perhaps, there is some use value that I don't know about?Neia couldn't help but think of the lost black gold lip ring, and felt slightly annoyed at her carelessness.Just as he was thinking, the lip ring suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand. The cold and smooth touch made him tremble all over, and he subconsciously let go of his hand.The lip ring fell to the ground again, but there was no sound.

Neia looked down, but there was nothing on the ground.

The dwarf noticed his abnormality and asked him what happened.

Neia shook her lips and said, "Just now I seem to see a gold coin on the ground."

Dwarf: "..." I have become a hostage, and I am still concerned about whether there are gold coins on the ground, which is also a rare talent.

Neia didn't think about what he was thinking, but called out the lip ring softly in her heart, and there was a small metal ring in the palm of her hand.Nothing to regret anymore.If you are worried, you should also worry about how to throw this thing away.Because of the dwarf's relationship, he has classified the Dark God as a scourge, and things related to the scourge are naturally hidden dangers, and the terrible thing is that he can't get rid of them even if he wants to.

Ever since he met Neia, his face had been pale. The dwarf didn't think much of it, but once again solemnly warned him to be quiet, because the city of Neil had arrived.

Santu, sandwiched between the Kandin Empire and Shamanlier, was once part of the "Empire of Dreams" the August Empire, and the royal family and some nobles still inherited the blood of several emperors of the August Empire.When the ancient empire fell apart, relying on the protection of the God of Light, it was not annexed by the wolf-like Kandin Empire and Shamanlier, and it has survived until now.The direct consequence of this is that the Santu royal family is useless, and the state affairs are controlled by the God of Light. From the royal family to the officials, they all live a life of drunken dreams.

The capital, Nier City, has completely inherited the spiritual outlook of the Santu royal family. The streets and alleys, inside and outside the palace, exude a decadent atmosphere everywhere.If there are exceptions, there are only the headquarters and cathedrals of the Society of Light.To quote believers, it is only by bathing in the light of the Goddess of Light that one can feel the meaning of life and the preciousness of time.

Neia's dress was very strange, and the dwarf's height was also eye-catching. At least when she was in Gulan, although no one stepped forward to meddle in other people's business, there were never fewer curious, doubtful, and probing eyes. , these gazes all disappeared.Everyone on the street seems to be busy with their own business and has no time to talk to others.

The dwarf arranged Neia in an unremarkable small hotel without hindrance, and then left.

Neia pretended to sit for half an hour, confirming that the other party really left and not setting up a trap, and quickly untied the rope with all her hands, feet and mouth.

When the dwarf came back, Neia had just released her hands and bent down to reach the rope on her feet.

The four eyes met, and time froze for a moment.

Neia was startled, and subconsciously picked up the rope and bound her hands to whitewash the peace.

The dwarf looked a little embarrassed, coughed dryly and said, "No need. We're just about to go out."

"Where to go?"

The dwarf glanced at him.

Neia realized that she had crossed the hostage line.

But the dwarf answered unexpectedly: "To see someone."

Neia didn't like the way they met.He was silenced, packed in a big box, and carried into a carriage. The reason why he knew it was a carriage was because the sound insulation of the box was not very good, and he heard the sound of wheels rolling.Going out from the small hotel, he passed a stone bridge with a steep deck, and his body hit the inner wall of the wooden box from left to right.

After walking for nearly an hour, the carriage stopped.

The box was lifted down, and the two people on the left and the right walked up the stairs. When they reached the top step of the stairs, they heard the sound of other boxes being placed next to them. When it was his turn, there was a violent impact. Make him jump all over.

"What?" he heard someone mutter.

"Never mind anything, we'll just move it," said another.

"It's really fair. The holy knight stands in the light and is respected, but we have to hide in the dark and carry the box."

"Don't say such things, doing things for the goddess is an honor no matter what!... Leader!"

Neia could hear the nervousness of the other person through the board, but the person who spoke first was completely silent.Immediately afterwards, a strange and gloomy voice said: "Dispose of the corpse. I hope that next time I won't meet such a group member again."

"Yes, I promise." The other's voice was tense.

The wooden box where he was hiding was suddenly knocked lightly.Neia's heart rose to the top of her voice.But after tapping, there is no text.He was carried onto a cart and rolled all the way in an unknown direction.

If Neia was hesitant to call for help once before, she completely gave up the idea after hearing that gloomy voice.He now only hopes that the place he is going to has nothing to do with that person.

After pushing the cart for about twenty minutes, it finally stopped.The box was moved somewhere, and then the cart was pushed away. There was a heavy closing sound not far away, and the surroundings returned to tranquility.

This time Neia didn't wait very long, she put her head on the wooden box for about two to three minutes.The wooden box lid did not budge.He tried again and again, and was about to give up when the lid was suddenly opened, and a small head leaned against the wooden box.

Neia's expression changed in fright, and when she looked closely, she turned out to be a dwarf.

The dwarf lifted him from the box.

"What is this place?" Neia didn't know if he would answer, but she boldly asked.

The dwarf said: "One of the warehouses at the headquarters of the God of Light."

no doubt!The dwarf must be plotting something.

Neia's expression turned extremely ugly.

The dwarf asked, "Do you want to know what's in the warehouse?" Before he could answer, he pried open the wooden box next to him with his dagger.For a moment, the eye-catching jewels dazzled the eyes of the two of them.
