He knew that once the opponent broke through the defense and entered the city hall, he might lose his head.

After all, the nobleman doesn't care how powerful the enemy he is facing, he only knows that his life is threatened, and he will definitely pull the responsible person out to make an example...

Chapter 130 Anonymous Letter

"Your Majesty!"

The woman who rushed to the front did not choose to kill the officer, but reined in the horse in a way that almost violated common sense of physics, and looked down at him from a high position.

The look in her eyes was so terrifying that the officer only looked at each other for a second, and then immediately knelt down trembling, feeling that his body could not be controlled at all.

"Take me to meet the ruler of this city!"

The woman obviously had no intention of wasting time, and ordered directly in an orderly tone.

Although the officer has been struggling in his heart, trying to reject this outrageous and unreasonable request, for some reason, he nodded subconsciously, and responded very humbly: "Please come with me, Sir is handling government affairs in the inner room .”

Saying that, the two people who were supposed to be hostile just stepped on the shriveled corpses everywhere, walked through the main entrance, and disappeared at the end of the quiet corridor.

Such a strange scene, not to mention the crowds on both sides of the road, even the guards who survived could not help but show a terrified expression.

Maybe outsiders don't know what kind of person an officer is, but these guards are very clear.

As a veteran who followed Kerwin all the way from his hometown, he is deeply trusted, otherwise he would not take on the important task of guarding a city hall. In theory, unless the tyrant is killed, he would not even choose to die. betray.

Because once betrayed, it not only means that all the generous treatment and rewards will be confiscated, but also relatives and friends will be implicated.

But it's such a guy who can't betray no matter what, but surrenders without hesitation at the feet of a woman who has never been masked. Anyone with a little brain will feel abnormal.

Spell!

This was the first thought that popped into their minds after the shock.

I am afraid that only magic that is full of mystery and is said to be able to do anything can control and change a person's thinking and concepts.

Thinking of this, the guards who survived by chance couldn't help but shiver, and immediately turned around and ran away without saying a word.

At this moment, no duty, no courage, no punishment can compare to the fear of the unknown.

After returning home, they immediately took their belongings and relatives and chose to escape, far away from this city where something big might happen.

……

At the same time, the woman, led by the officer, arrived in a room full of various letters and papers within a short time.

Several clerks in dresses or robes were busy copying and approving documents with their heads down, and dealing with various complicated and cumbersome taxes and financial expenditures.

Due to the very good sound insulation, none of them realized what happened outside just now.

Especially the old man with a short beard sitting on the main seat gave people a majestic and capable feeling. He was the de facto ruler of the city under his feet, the mayor and concurrently professed by Kerwin. Honor Lord.

He obviously didn't realize the danger was coming, and he still asked without raising his head, "Is there anyone who wants to see me?"

"..."

The officer bowed his head and said nothing.

It's not that he doesn't want to speak, but it's that something stuck in his throat and he can't speak at all.

The woman didn't even look at the officer, she took two steps forward and asked in a seductive voice, "Tell me, where did you get the accurate information about the Dark Church?" "

"Huh?" The old man snapped up his head, looked up at the strange woman who suddenly appeared in front of him, and subconsciously frowned. "Who are you? Why are you in my office?"

"Oh? It can resist my suggestion magic!"

The woman raised her eyebrows in surprise, but then grabbed the opponent's collar, and with the powerful physical fitness given to her by the holy sword, she abruptly pulled the adult man weighing more than 70 kilograms from the chair, and slammed it still on the ground .

"Say! Who gave you news about the Dark Church!"

"Damn! How dare you?! Guards! Catch this lunatic!" The old man was undoubtedly enraged, his face flushed red, and he shouted loudly.

But unfortunately, after a few minutes, apart from the officer standing still, not even a guard appeared.

At this moment, even the most stupid people will realize that the city hall has fallen, and the guards on duty outside have either been killed, escaped or rebelled.

Thinking of this, his face suddenly became gloomy: "Who are you? The head of the dark church? I warn you, it's best not to mess around, otherwise His Majesty Kerwin will not let you go."

"Kerwin? Your Majesty? Hahahaha!" The woman raised the corners of her mouth and laughed, and sarcastically said, "Idiot! You don't know that he is actually just a pawn thrown to the front desk by a powerful existence, right? A puppet who has nothing without the support of his master is not qualified to be a king at all. Now, put away your boring threats and tell me what I want to know."

"No! Never! Come on! Kill me! Your Majesty will avenge me!" The old man raised his chin proudly, without the slightest sign of flinching.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't cherish his own life, but that he no longer cares about the lives of his family members.

In order to ensure the loyalty of his subordinates, Kerwin arranged for the family members of all important bureaucrats to live in his own city. If anyone dared to betray, the family members would be slaughtered inhumanely.

"Fear! I read fear in your eyes! You are afraid! It's okay, I can get the information I want from other people even if you don't tell me."

After finishing speaking, the woman turned around and cast her eyes on those shivering clerks: "Now let's play a game, I will ask, you will answer, each answer will add one point, and those who get one point can leave here safely , Those who get two points can not only leave, but also get a bounty of one thousand gold coins, and those who get three points can get a magic ring, which can make you invisible for a short time."

There is no doubt that coercion and temptation are always the easiest and most brutal way to break through the psychological defense line.

Anyway, the clerk's family was not taken away by Kerwin, so naturally he wouldn't mind exchanging the information at hand for a large sum of money and flying away.

Seeing the anticipation and eagerness on their faces, the woman glanced meaningfully at the old man who was standing there, and said calmly, "The first question! Where did you know about the Dark Church? And the place of our secret meeting?"

"I! I know! It's a letter!" A man who looked less than 30 years old reacted the fastest and grabbed the precious first point.

The first thousand and 130 eight chapters anonymous letter

"A letter?" A curious look appeared on the woman's face.

She couldn't imagine how a mere letter could expose the dark church that had been hiding in the dark to the sun.

You must know that even she herself cannot know all the secret meeting places scattered in various places.

The clerk hurriedly nodded and explained: "Yes! It's just a letter, an anonymous letter. We don't know who it came from, we only know that it suddenly appeared on the desk a few days ago, and it explained in detail the secrets of the Dark Church. Threats, and the huge number of believers you currently have. To some extent, you have threatened the rule of many cities, and you will naturally become targets of suppression and elimination."

"Where's that letter? Show it to me!" The woman made a further request.

She had a premonition that the suppression against the church this time might be a conspiracy, forcing herself not to grow slowly in the dark, but to stand in the sunshine to meet the hostility from the whole world.

Whether it is the major temples that are used to accepting donations from believers and enjoying a luxurious life, or the nobles who are used to controlling power from above, they will never allow a newly rising force to snatch resources from themselves.

It can be foreseen that the dark church will usher in the most difficult period. If it survives, it will be a bright future. If it cannot survive, it will lose the original good situation, leave the densely populated towns, and turn to rule. Weak rural activities.

"Please wait!"

The clerk hurried to the Lord's desk, completely ignoring the old man's angry eyes, opened the drawer and found a slightly yellowed envelope from the inside.
