Alien Knights

"You mean Myris?!"

After reacting, Todd stood up from his chair and raised his volume by three points.

Seeing Todd's appearance, Rachel sighed inaudibly: "People from the Alien Association found their figures at the back door of the Governor's Mansion..."

Todd recalled that kind old monk, as well as every detail in the monastery, and the whole person seemed to be in a trance, standing there motionless.

Rachel approached him and whispered, "I must remind you that Laryngoid is a very dangerous and crazy person. Myris, who walked with him, must have been affected."

Todd asked Rachel, "You mean, Miles has become dangerous and unpredictable?"

"Over the years, there have been rumors that under Saladin's hands, the throat bone has been doing some "dirty work" that no one is willing to do. For example, helping the empire eliminate rebels, cleaning up the old aristocratic forces, etc. Since Mairis and him Together, nature also participates in it.”

Todd asked strangely: "But the question is, how did Miles come together with him? At the beginning, this old man suddenly left everything in the monastery, and left without saying goodbye. I have never been able to figure out this matter."

"I don't know the specific reason." Rachel said in a low voice: "In the past, the Presbyterian Church sent people to sneak into the barracks at the throat, hoping to find out some information, but all the people they sent never returned."

Todd picked up the robe on the chair, dressed neatly, put down the hood, and said to Rachel: "Tell me where the Governor's Palace is? I want to go and see."

Rachel looked at him worriedly: "I'll go with you."

"No, you are here to protect those ancient text notes, I promise you, nothing will happen to me."

After saying this, Todd used the ability of "transformation" to change himself into another appearance, and even his voice was quite different from usual.

Rachel took out a map from his sleeve, pointed out the location of the target for Todd, and finally urged again: "Remember! If anything happens, you must leave this city immediately, don't worry about me, Of course I have a way to leave safely."

Todd pressed the brim of his hat, nodded to Rachel, and left the tavern.

Walking on the streets of Anuda, Todd followed the map Rachel gave him and walked towards the port governor's mansion.

The closer you are to the destination, the more guards there are along the way.

When they arrived at the gate of the Governor's Mansion, hundreds of imperial guards surrounded the entire mansion, and every pedestrian who came and went was checked and frisked repeatedly.

Todd took a few glances from a distance, and after realizing that the defense was too tight, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​sneaking in and planned to return to the tavern the same way.

At this moment, an old voice sounded behind Todd: "You shouldn't have come here."

Todd turned around, and the familiar face of Miles appeared in front of him.

It's just that compared with the past, the old man has become so thin that he has lost his shape, and his face is as haggard as a skeleton. The most shocking thing is that his eyes have turned white.

Todd was ready to attack at any time, and tried to ask, "Do you know me?"

Miles touched the top of Todd's head, and suddenly smiled: "My ability allows me to see the color of the soul, and your soul is the brightest one among all... Todd Fischer .”

One of Todd's hands turned into a dragon shape in his sleeve, and the other hand waved in front of Myris' eyes: "Your eyes?"

"How ironic, I once healed your eyes with these hands. But God punished me for my crime by depriving me of my sight, so I had to face the ugliest thing in the world."

Recalling the scene in the monastery where Master Myris healed his eyes, Todd's voice became hoarse: "Master Myris, come with me, let's go home, there are many people waiting for you... Karin , Edgar, Jerry..."

Myris shook his head: "Todd, I have fallen into an accomplice of the devil and lost the gift of God forever. Don't let my footprints defile that sacred land. This is a land of right and wrong, you should leave as soon as possible .”

Todd whispered: "You are my first teacher. Without you, I would not even have the chance to live... No matter what you become, the door of God will always be open to you..."

A moved and guilty look appeared on Miles' face. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't say anything.

At this moment, an imperial guard officer walked towards Meris and said, "Sir, the Caliph is looking for you."

When he walked up to Miles, he immediately looked at Todd suspiciously, and asked, "I don't know this guy, who is he?"

Miles quietly pulled La Todd's clothes corner, motioning him not to speak: "He is a scholar in the north and also a friend of mine. This time he made a special trip to discuss academics with me. But it is a pity that he just I'm going back..."

"A scholar from the north?" The chief guard stared at Todd and said with a smile: "That's just right, the Caliph wants to discuss academics with you, and I don't think His Majesty the Emperor would mind if there is one more person."

Just as Miles was about to say something more, the chief guard had already called the soldiers involuntarily, motioning for Miles and Todd to go in as soon as possible.

Walking in the garden of the Governor's Mansion, Myris approached Todd and whispered: "When I meet the emperor of the empire, you don't need to be too cautious, but don't be too casual. Saladin has always been tolerant of the words and deeds of scholars, but this is not the case. It doesn't mean that his patience has no limit."

At this time, Todd couldn't laugh or cry. His original plan was to find Miles, but he didn't expect to meet his greatest enemy, Saladin.

The legendary great emperor, the invincible god of war, the caliph who enjoyed both fame and infamy.

Thinking of this, Todd suddenly realized that in his heart, he was actually yearning to meet Saladin very much.

Walking through a corridor full of soldiers, Todd walked into a room full of bookshelves and desks, and finally saw Saladin's true face.

This middle-aged man who is not angry and proud has a handsome face that makes people feel good. He doesn't look like a general or an emperor at all, but more like an elder who has been immersed in academics for many years .

But to Todd's surprise, Saladin's complexion didn't seem to be very good, and his body also looked a little weak due to hidden diseases.

"Myris, you are here." Saladin looked away from the book and said happily.

When he saw Todd, his expression was obviously stagnant, but he quickly returned to normal.

"It's rare to have a guest today, Myris, don't you intend to introduce me?"

Myris glanced at Todd, moved out the lines that had been prepared in advance, and said slowly: "The great caliph, this is a scholar from the north, and also my best friend. His name is Toltoy."

Saladin smiled while clapping his hands and said: "As long as you are in the land of Allah and drink the nectar bestowed by Allah, then you are my honored guest of Saladin."

Listening to the two people talking in Imperial language non-stop, Todd, who couldn't understand at all, could only smile politely.

What Todd didn't expect was that Saladin quickly used the lingua franca and said to him: "Toltai, with all due respect, you don't look like a scholar."
