Chapter 589: Revisiting Kent City
Kashin and his group of more than 60 people suddenly appeared in the teleportation array outside Donzhu City like shining stars.
The teleportation array flashed with mysterious light. After the light gradually dissipated, Kashin had a relaxed smile on his face. He looked around and said to the seniors who were traveling with him:
"Dear seniors, this is the Mining Service Department of the Magic Association, which is about forty miles away from Dunzhu City." His voice was particularly clear in the empty suburbs, and everyone around him could hear his words clearly.
Stephen Lee raised his head slightly, with a hint of emotion in his eyes, and said slowly:
"It's true that almost all the major cities in this Pumasai have teleportation arrays. This is really an amazing achievement. You know, in the world, there are probably only a few countries that can achieve this level.
Otherwise, even if we have great abilities, we can only be out of reach when we encounter such a serious disaster as the plague. This teleportation array is like a huge network, which is simply a huge advantage. "As he spoke, he gently stroked his magic wand.
"Yes, Pumasai's way to success cannot be replicated," Moduo also sighed.
Kashin jumped lightly and sat steadily on his mount, his expression became serious, and he said: "The empire has fallen to this point, and if it were another country, it would have collapsed long ago. When Taizu founded the country, he formulated a great strategy for building the country. Although it has gone through the baptism of time, these strategies still protect this country in the dark.
Our current actions adhere to the principle of not interfering with the positions of the princes, and we are only focused on eradicating those dark priests who are extremely harmful. Now our top priority is to save people.
Those princes who secretly attempt to split the country should be handed over to the imperial guards to deal with. The days of those people who rely on improper means to gain benefits and do whatever they want are numbered. "
Kashin's words were full of loyalty to the empire and confidence in the future. He was well aware of the mission he and his group were shouldering.
After hearing what Kashin said, Moduo raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile. He said with a smile: "Whoever dares to obstruct our investigation will be killed on the spot, but we are too lazy to do it.
We are here to protect innocent people, not to argue with those short-sighted people. However, if someone really doesn't know how to live or die and tries to stop us, we will definitely not be merciful."
The princes in the city did not dare to intercept the magician's arrival. The imperial document had been issued several months ago. They came to solve the plague, and even the stupidest prince would not allow the people in the territory to die on a large scale.
You must know that civilians are the wealth of the princes, so the shadow priest can only do things secretly.
The group found the Mercenary Association and settled in. Pharmacist Adu, who had been undercover there for several months, came to report the situation.
"We have refined a large amount of resentment-relieving medicine in the past few months, so as soon as the plague broke out, we controlled it with medicine. The city hall here quickly implemented the national guidance plan and brought the plague under control in less than five days. So everyone who entered the city saw no signs of the plague, but! The shadow priest still exists."
Kashin nodded and said, "Senior Adu, what is the political stance of the local lords?"
"Don't worry. This is a gathering place for magic mines. The lord is the nephew of the previous king and will not advocate division and independence. After the plague, the church was also severely hit here."
Kashin nodded: "The document stipulates that if there is any disturbance, the believers must be eliminated immediately to prevent the other party from trying to replace the old with the new.
If you want to replace the population, you can only dream about it, blood will be returned with blood. This has become a custom, even if the believers have not committed any crime, they will be killed to appease the people. There is no food for the believers in Pumasai..."
Alchemist Adu: "Please solve the plague here as soon as possible so that I can go back to the Magic Island to rest for a while. I have been on duty here for too long and I miss home..."
"Look, we are all here, which shows that the situation is under control. This is the last shadow priest. He should not be aware of the national situation yet and is still carrying out his tasks step by step, causing the plague to continue."
"Haha! Maybe. Those who left the city this time were followed by someone. It is basically certain that the Dark Priest did not leave. Although the plague has been eradicated, he seems to still take action."
Kashin: "Please take a rest, seniors. I need some time to scout. It won't be that fast."
Moduo took the two magicians to visit the local city lord's mansion, hoping to find out the situation and to recruit help when necessary. They were very professional and capable of dealing with dark priests.
After a day and a night, Kashen discovered that he had lost the trace of the Dark Priest and had apparently run away.
So he discussed countermeasures with Stephen Lee and Mordor. If the Shadow Priest ran away, it would be very difficult to find him as long as he did not commit rebellion.
Mo Duo: "Yesterday I got the list of people who left the city from the City Lord's Mansion. If they are locals, they can basically be ruled out as suspects. So a total of sixty people left the city. Excluding those who frequently enter the city, there are actually only seven who are very suspicious..."
For safety reasons, the city lord assigned an assassination organization to keep an eye on these sixty people so that they could trace their origins.
Kashin: "It's too late. The Shadow Priest will definitely retreat to the coastal city - Kent City. So, seniors, send a team of people to Kent City via the teleportation array to keep an eye on it, and other colleagues will take the post road to chase them. I will follow them through the jungle mountain path, and I will leave a team to guard them..."
"Hahaha, Kashen's suggestion is good. Let's take a multi-pronged approach. Let's do it this way. The Dark Priest must have discovered that the City Hall was well prepared, so he evacuated in advance."
According to the confession materials, the Dark Priest came from the Gospel Island in the North Sea, so he couldn't leave the sea. Kent City was a port first and then a city. It seems that the magician has found the source clues...
Kashen told the magicians present about the time he went to the mercenary headquarters to deliver a letter, which was also for the purpose of going to Kent City to sail to the mercenary headquarters of Silver Heron Castle in Roland Country.
Just near the city of Dunzhu, he suddenly attacked the eleven paladins, which led to him being hunted down by the church's armed forces. Kashen was familiar with the mountain trails here, and it took more than a hundred miles to get to the city of Kent along the mountain trail.
In the mountains and forests, they fought with the armed forces of the church and were forced into a state of humiliation by the prophet pastor...
"The skills that Brother Kashen mentioned that the Prophet Priest possesses, some of our formation masters also have them, so let's expose them..."
"Indeed, I later found out that it was not because of my own dirty hands, but because of the opponent's magic that exposed me. I was young and reckless, and did things without thinking. More than 80 assassins were killed. This incident has always made me regret it and I take it as a warning!"
Modo: "Kashin, have you found the prophet priest? Let's send him to see God this time..."
"Senior, it seems that Xu is not in Dunzhu City at the moment. I heard that the church's armed forces were suppressed in advance here, so he may have escaped long ago. If you want to spend time looking for him, there is no need. After all, saving people is more important. It's his bad luck to meet him on a narrow road.
I was so embarrassed because of my low cultivation level back then. If it happens again, hum! I won’t run away at all, I will kill them right there…”
Revisiting the old place, Kashin was full of confidence. If he met those people now, he would not take them seriously at all and would wipe them out in a fair fight.
