"No, this is just your guess." The old knight Laird suddenly frowned and interrupted them: "As Duke Doronk said, you should be aware of the seriousness of this matter. Before it is 100% confirmed,

Never lie!"

"Old Captain Reard, you know best! That guy from Bergning said before that the person holding the Lion Heart Sword is the descendant of the Earth Knight. That girl is Freya Everton, the descendant of the Earth Knight.

You all know best who took the person away. Since she has appeared, why can't he appear?"

"All clues point to the truth!" Marquis Youxi shouted hoarsely: "Mr. Laird, I know your feelings. You should understand what kind of choice is beneficial to the kingdom!"

The old knight was slightly startled, and then he could only sigh and shake his head.

Williams' expression changed. He stared at these people and finally nodded: "Very good, it's best to be true. I can't make the decision on this matter, but I will notify the temple immediately."

After that, he closed his eyes slightly. After a moment, he opened them again, his sky-blue eyes were full of killing intent. "Darrus is dead, but he did leave behind descendants, but is that right?"

, but I would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go."

The deputy head of the Knights Templar gave a few people a cold look: "You'd better be responsible for your words and deeds. You should be responsible for all the souls who died here unjustly today. As long as you have followed him, then

He will definitely die."

"The temple will never repeat the mistakes of the past and end up with the same mistakes as today. I will do it myself, but you'd better keep your mouth shut."

Marquis Youxi and others felt their hands and feet cold for a moment and could not utter a word. Only Knight Laird seemed to have aged dozens of years and turned into a decrepit old man. He shook his head and sighed deeply.

One sound.

Williams turned around and shouted to the Templar Knights under his command: "I need manpower. Tell Priest Wood whether he has found any trace of Mephistopheles."

"Sir," the Templar knight immediately replied, "There should be news, but I won't be back for a while. These are the exact words of Priest Wood."

"Old Slippery." Williams couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

But he raised his head, with a firm coldness in his eyes: "Where is the princess?"

"They went in the direction of Mare Heights, my lord."

"Want to enter the Anlek Mountains?"

"It's not that easy-"
