In fact, the Church of Poseidon is not strong in the Kingdom of Dofrela. There are only churches of the Church of Poseidon in a few coastal cities and the capital. The influence of the Church is not as deep into all aspects as the Kingdom of Meletni. This provides opportunities for the actions of Austin and others. A huge convenience.
But the decline of the church has also caused certain troubles for the operation - although Dotgrai is the second largest port city in the Kingdom of Dofrera on the coast of the warm tide inland sea, there is only one bishop in charge of Trang, and his every move is inevitable. He will attract attention from all parties, and it will be difficult for Austin and others to kidnap him.
In this regard, Lavery, who had high hopes from Lysa, finally took action. The rebellious illegitimate son of the king, a free and undisciplined adventurer, and a young wanderer who left his hometown - Lavery Jonson was about to "come" to Dotger. As the boat flew by, everyone in the city focused their attention on "His Royal Highness" who came ashore at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Revery didn't seem to know that his identity had been known to the higher-ups of Dortgorai. He had no intention of hiding his whereabouts. He entered the city openly and was immediately warmly welcomed by the city administrator.
In order to convey his enthusiasm and "by the way" test the purpose of the prince's trip, the administrator immediately invited Revery to attend a dinner held at his residence at six o'clock in the evening. The prince, who had been living abroad since his birth, did not object to this. Instead, he borrowed the hand of the administrator to send dinner invitations to all prominent figures in Dotger's society.
This move was like pouring cold water into a hot pan of oil. It instantly detonated this city, which had a high status in the country. Even the stakeholders of the royal capital sent people to hurry up and wanted to take a look. What kind of medicine did your Royal Highness sell in his gourd?
Dotegelai, who was at the center of this storm, was even more crazy. The homes of the so-called celebrities who received the invitations were suddenly filled with guests. Countless guys who had not received the invitations were eager to get into the dinner party and replace everyone. The price offered by a waiter on the black market is even equivalent to a fake artifact.
Even Lysa didn't expect that Revery would make such a big fuss, so she could only temporarily modify the action plan, and Austin would kidnap Trump alone, and kill him directly if necessary.
Austin was worried about how to find Sophia's body under Revery's "surveillance", but now this problem is gone.
"Go there in advance when the time comes. Sophia will guide you." Marianu also arrived at Dotege, but she didn't know where he was hiding. "I'm also more interested in that bishop. You can try to get him through the medium of pirate gold coins when the time comes. He entered the illusion, let me see if I can get some interesting information."
Austin nodded, tied the crystal that Revry gave him with a string in his hand, and walked out of the hotel room.
The streets of Dotgelai became lively due to the arrival of Revery, and the number of sailors and vendors doubled in the city out of thin air. Those who didn't know it thought that the annual harvest festival of Dofrela Kingdom had arrived.
Doug immersed himself in the crowd, trying to avoid those who could trigger the sense of danger. Even so, when he finally arrived at the Inquisition, his heart was already numb.
"Damn, this city is too exaggerated. There really aren't any good people!" Doug sat on a bench in the small square, feeding the pigeons and observing the red-walled building opposite the square.
Different from the Inquisition that most people think of, this place is neither in a deserted suburb, nor in a gloomy cemetery, nor in the screams lingering around the building. There are only groups of pigeons in the square and citizens feeding the pigeons in groups of twos and threes. Occasionally, you can see a few children running around chasing the pigeons.
Just looking at the peaceful and peaceful scene of this sect, it is impossible to imagine that cultists and heretics are tortured to death underground in this red building every day.
[Lavery's influence is indeed terrifying. I estimate that half of the people in this city are here for him now. ]
"The two of them worked really hard. They set off such a big smoke bomb just to kidnap someone. I really don't know how it will end when it's all over."
[I bet you ten pirate gold coins. This is also part of their plan. Although Lysa looks like a saint, in fact she is probably even more ruthless than you. ]
"It's ten minutes to six now. According to Trang's previous schedule, Trang should show up in five minutes." Mariano's voice interrupted the chat.
After hearing this, Doug glanced at the big clock on the main building of the Inquisition. Doug bent down, seemingly observing the pigeons surrounding him, but in fact he was staring at a certain intersection.
After a while, a figure wearing a bishop's robe appeared at the street corner and walked slowly towards the door of the Inquisition.
Almost at the same time, a faint figure also appeared in front of Doug.
"Let's start too." Sophia said softly.
"Hey, long time no see." Doug stood up, stretched, and said with a smile.
Sophia ignored him completely and walked towards another street.
Doug followed her, twisting and turning into an alley. Sophia stopped in front of a two-story building and motioned for Doug to open the door.
Doug knocked on the door and got no response.
"There were four robbers inside who wanted to dig a tunnel to the bank vault. I used some tricks to confuse them. Now the tunnel leads directly to the Inquisition dungeon. It only takes the last shovel to get through." Mariano explained.
Doug knocked on the door again, and after several repetitions, footsteps finally came from inside.
A strong man with a sinister face opened the door a crack and said impatiently: "Go away, we didn't order newspapers or cattle-"
Before he finished speaking, Doug stabbed him directly at his throat.
While reaching out to open the door, he took a step to support the strong man's fallen body.
The living room on the first floor is in clutter, and it doesn't matter if there is one more piece of garbage now.
Doug looked around. There was a wooden floor near the fireplace that had obvious signs of movement, and the camouflage carpet on the side was not covered.
Knocking gently on the secret door on the floor, footsteps and a shrill voice came from the underground: "What's wrong, Ben? Isn't it hard to deal with the guy who came?"
Doug squatted next to the secret door. The moment the door opened, the blade pierced the man's neck. He grabbed his arms and lifted him up. Doug entered the tunnel with the knife in his mouth.
The tunnel was only large enough for one person to enter and exit, and Doug doubted whether the robbery plan of these guys could be successfully implemented.
Moving forward, I turned the corner and saw two guys busy.
Doug thought for a while, picked up a handy stone from the frame next to him, and quietly touched it behind the two of them. With a simple blow, the two robbers were straightened out for the rest of their lives.
“I really don’t understand why you don’t wear a helmet when digging tunnels?”
"I helped you eliminate your traces. Even if someone uses scene reconstruction, they won't be able to find you. Let's go in from here. I blocked the church's perception of this corner before." Sophia appeared aside and said calmly.
Doug shrugged, picked up the pickaxe on the ground, and dug out the last layer of soil.
At the same time, the dinner party at the administrator's residence officially began. Revery, wearing a gorgeous dress and accompanied by the administrator, entered the banquet hall. Immediately, countless eyes focused here.
The administrator led Revery to the stage and signaled the band to stop playing, and everyone held their breath unconsciously.
After some polite opening remarks, Revery paused and finally said the question that everyone present was most concerned about:
"As the great king, the son of Relips II, I think I have the responsibility to lead the motherland to be strong again, so I come back."
The venue was completely silent. Some people may have expected it, but they were still extremely shocked when they heard the news in person.
In the silence, a sharp ridicule seemed particularly harsh: "You are just an illegitimate child. What qualifications do you have to inherit the throne?"
There was another thunder, and a thin man slowly walked to the stage under the gaze of everyone.
The administrator on the stage twitched his eyes. This was the financial officer from Dotger and the youngest son of the finance minister of the Kingdom of Dofrela. Only he dared to say such rude words in front of everyone.
The administrator whispered a few words into Lavery's ear and explained the guy's family background.
The corners of Lavery's mouth raised slightly, he shook his head, and then dropped another bomb: "What if, I mean what if, all my brothers died?"
There was an uproar, and the financial officer took a few steps back and looked at Lavery in horror: "How dare you... How dare you do such a treasonous thing!"
Even the administrator next to Revery frowned.
"There's no need for such a big reaction. What I'm saying is that if, everything is possible in the world, I might die tonight." Lavery patted the administrator on the shoulder, walked off the stage, and paused for a moment when passing by the financial officer. , said in a voice that only two people could hear, "But what if my words come true? Do you think I am worthy of inheriting the throne?"
