Chapter 34 Kidnapping the Saint? [You killed the corrupted undead, and you gained 400 experience points] Ophénina hugged Lear tightly, and it felt like a gust of wind passed by, and the dead woman was dead. She looked at the handsome face so close to her. There was no panic on his face and all his actions were so clean and neat. Looking at his own guards... At this time, Morrie also reacted. He watched Lear holding Ophelia and killing the undead with a knife. He was so jealous that he wanted to go crazy. This should be his job as a guard! Now the limelight has been completely stolen! And Lear is actually holding the body of the saint! He hadn't even touched Ophinina's hand! "Lear, let Her Highness the Saint go!" Mori roared with red eyes. Lear ignored Morrie's anger. His eyes were sharp. Now that Ophénina had been hit back by the Golden Rule and was unable to move, an idea came to his mind. Just kidnap Ophinina now and take her home to imprison her, just like you imprisoned Milia at the beginning. Including Mori, there are a total of four Golden Church believers, two mid-level professionals, and two entry-level professionals. With his ability, it is no problem to kill these four people.
Moreover, all the poor people around had already run away, and the black fog produced by the explosion just now had very low visibility. He had every chance to take Aophanina away without anyone knowing. "Okay, Morrie, it was Li Er who saved me just now. If it weren't for him, I might have been injured." Ophinina suddenly spoke up, as if she had regained some strength, and rubbed against Lear's arms. Looking at this scene, Mori was angry and jealous, but there was nothing he could do. "Are you okay?" Lear lowered his head and asked with a smile. "I'm almost recovered. I was just accidentally attacked back at you. My golden law is quite special. I can recover after a while of the backlash." Ophelia said with a blush on her cheeks. Lear nodded, his expression unchanged. He gave up the plan of kidnapping Ophelia in his heart. The risk was too great. Even if he could kidnap Ophelia, the follow-up measures would still be a problem. Ophinina is a professional with high-level strength, completely different from the delicate little white flower like Milia. "Morrie, go and inform His Majesty the King that the Corruption Cult has appeared in the slums. Ask him to immediately send professional guards to double the martial law. Once the poor infected with the Corruption Disease are found, they must be isolated first." Oufengina instructed Mori who was standing beside her. Mori nodded. He also understood the seriousness of the matter, but he did not leave. He stood there hesitantly. "What about you, Saint?" Ophinina smiled, looked at Lear, and winked playfully, "Mr. Lear should be able to send me back to the Golden Church safely, right?" Li Er was stunned for a moment, then he also laughed, "Of course, it's my honor." It seems that the search for powerful items and props will have to be put off for a while, he sighed inwardly. Mori could not disobey Ophinina's order and could only go to the king unwillingly. However, he still left the remaining three golden cultists and asked them to follow Lear to protect the saint. And he repeatedly reminded him to keep an eye on Lear. They all left the slums together. Not long after they left, a crow flapped its wings on the roof and flew away into the depths of the prosperous royal city.
The journey to escort Ophinina back to the Golden Cathedral was peaceful, with Lear merely acting as a guard. After sending Ophinina to the church, he declined her invitation to have lunch there and took Ino directly home. …… Duke Norton's Mansion. On the tree outside the villa, a large crow was looking at a room in the villa. In the sky, another smaller crow flew down and landed next to the big crow. "How's the matter going?" The big crow actually spoke in human language. "Sir, I met the Golden Saint of the Holy See. I wasted a mother body, but I also caused serious injuries to the saint." The little crow replied. “Didn’t I tell you that everything we do is aimed at spreading corruption, and that you shouldn’t be impulsive when you meet people from the Golden Church?” The Big Crow’s tone was somewhat serious. "..." The little crow was silent. After a long while, he said, "My brother died at the hands of the Saint." The big crow didn't say anything else. He glanced at the little crow and finally said helplessly, "Forget it, the loss of a mother is a loss, but the plan must go on. I hope you won't let me down again this time." "I understand." The little crow responded, then flapped its wings and flew away. Until the little crow left, the big crow's eyes gradually became indifferent, "Brother? How ridiculous! The believers of the corrupt law only need to believe in corruption, and everything else should be abandoned." "If you weren't still of some use..." The crow shook its head, then flapped its wings and landed on the windowsill of the room in front. …… In the room, Duke Norton sat in a chair with an irritated expression. Ever since Eric lost the last duel, rumors began to spread among the nobles that Duke Stuart was preparing to return to the capital. To say that Lear's brilliance is the first step. If this is true, it will not be a good thing for the entire Norton family. The Stuarts are the oldest family in the kingdom, stationed in the border fortress of Farrow. Since the founding of the kingdom, they have been fighting with the previous king in various battles, and the scope of their territory is incredibly large. Most of the area bordering the Kingdom of Knox in the west of Brayfield was under the rule of Stuart, occupying almost one-fifth of the territory of the entire Kingdom of Brayfield. It can be said to be a country within a country. The current Duke of Stuart is also very powerful. He is one of the few extraordinary professionals in the kingdom and believes in the laws of war. The current king was able to win the fight for the throne with the help of Stuart. After Rosser ascended the throne, the current Duke of Stuart, Albert, returned to the border fortress of Farrow and no longer interfered in the affairs of the royal city. When Duke Norton came to Brayfield, he did a lot of things to belittle Stuart in order to vigorously develop arcane laws and enhance the strength of the family. As long as they can suppress Stuart, they can get great attention. Those common people are used to hearing the legend of Stuart, and they will naturally be attracted by the sudden appearance of a family more powerful than Stuart. As a result, Duke Norton recruited many talents, and finally, he defeated the Stuart Guards who stayed in the royal city with the help of the mage corps he formed, and became completely famous. Arcane laws began to be taken seriously, and Duke Norton also gained the favor of the king.
From then on, he began to rise rapidly in the career of the Duke of the kingdom, and now he holds a high position of power. It can be said that everything he has now was obtained by stepping on the Stuart family. But he knew very well that his family's strength was no match for the Stuart family, and the guards he defeated were just the elite troops of the Stuart. The real Stuart is entrenched on the western frontier, a terrifying behemoth and a sleeping lion. (End of this chapter)
