As the evening afterglow disappeared, the city of Navia, which imposed a curfew, quickly quieted down.

Only patrolling city guards remained on the street.

Unlike in the past, today's city guards held weapons one by one, staring wide-eyed, looking for suspicious figures in the shadows in the corner.

The assassination of the priest of the Thorn Temple in the afternoon had alarmed the senior officials of Navia City, and the big men gave orders that they had to catch the murderer within a week.

But the city guards commanded the slightest trace.

In the end, the commander could only press the high pressure from the upper level on his subordinates.

As for the final result?

That's really only God knows it.

"Derlink is just a pamper. If he hadn't relied on his contribution to the 'Thunder Temple', how could he have become the commander of the city guards?"

When talking about the commander, Etraina was full of disdain.

However, when facing those city guards, Etraina was careful enough.

With Qin Ran, Mimosa walked around four posts along the path outside the "Power Stable" store, and after three patrols, they entered the dock area of ​​Navia City.

After passing through the warehouses, Qin Ran's eyes suddenly became clear. Six straight fort bridges led to the sea, and large sailboats rose and fell in the waves.

Wow!

The sound of waves came into my ears clearly, and the oncoming sea breeze was even more special.

"It's right in front!"

"I hid the 'Holy Grail of Thorns' in the sea under a fortress. Only the aura of monsters in the sea can cover up the perception of the priests!"

Etraina whispered.

Qin Ran nodded without comment.

Qin Ran, who has read "The Discussion on the Development of the Temple in Navia City", is very clear that although there are twenty-five temples in Navia City, except for the highest temple, it is "Thunder", there are no powerful gods such as the sun, the moon, nor the day, the night, the ocean, etc. that appear in common sense.

On the contrary, there are all kinds of terrifying monsters in the ocean here.

Every year, we need a ‘Sea Festival’ to appease those monsters and ensure smooth sailing.

Moreover, most of the indigenous people here believe that the sea water is magical.

Of course, it's the bad one.

In addition, there are customs such as not being close to the sea at night.

However, it is precisely because of this custom that Qin Ran and his team's next actions have become much easier.

Most of the city guards patrol near the warehouse, none of them near the coast.

The only post on the six forts is useless.

Mimosa, who was following Qin Ran, looked at the empty post of the guard post that was lit by a torch, and couldn't help but be curious.

"A year and a half ago, after the last night watchman disappeared inside, no one dared to serve there."

"In less than half a year, ten people have disappeared, including the night watchman. Even the priests of the "Sin Temple" have no choice but to do anything about it."

Etraina explained in a low voice.

However, from beginning to end, my eyes were not looking at Mimosa, but at Qin Ran.

Obviously, this explanation is for Qin Ran.

As for mimosa?

In the eyes of the arrogant temple deacon, Mimosa is a timid servant who is useless except for cooking.

"You should not have brought you as a servant, my lord."

"He has no use."

Etraina said as she walked.

Such remarks made Mimosa frightened and subconsciously grabbed Qin Ran's cloak. He was very worried that Qin Ran would abandon him.

“It’s enough to have cooking skills.”

Qin Ran answered half true and half falsely.

When Qin Ran found out that Eterina was just a pawn and had no idea why the person behind the scenes wanted to find a "traveler" to attack, it would be really unwise if Qin Ran dared to leave Mimosa alone in the hotel.

Aitrina was able to find the hotel.

Why can't that guy do it?

Even the other party has taken action.

Qin Ran's eyes swept across the shadows around him without a trace, then looked at the village bridge in the distance, and moved slightly, blocking the mimosa completely behind him.

Etraina did not notice Qin Ran's actions.

But this does not mean that Eterina did not find any abnormalities.

As he got closer to the village bridge and experienced a baptism, Aitrena, who was already different from ordinary people, stopped alertly and signaled Qin to retreat.

But just as Eterina stopped, seven or eight figures emerged from the shadow behind them, each holding a sword and showing a fierce look.

In the direction of the village bridge, two men dressed in leather armor and dressed in mercenaries walked out.

One of them held two swords in his hand, with a strong body and a sarcastic face. The long swords in his left and right hands brought cold lights as the opponent's wrists rotated.

A bare-handed but taller than ordinary people, with a scar on his face, making people suck in a cold air when they look at it.

"'Double Swords' Silicic!"

“'Beast' Edson!”

When Etrana saw the two men clearly through the faint moonlight, she exclaimed.

It's over!

When the temple deacon saw these two people appear, the hearts of despair were filled with despair.

Both are famous figures in Navia City.

Not only among the mercenaries, but also in the temple.

Because, after the two intercepted a priest from the "Temple of Wealth" a year ago, they caused a sensation in the city of Navia.

All were shocked by the bold behavior of the two.

During the subsequent pursuit, the two performed extraordinaryly, avoiding the three pursuits from the Temple of Sin and fled straight to the north.

Aitrina didn't know why the two of them sneaked back to Navia City at this time.

Or maybe the other party did not leave Navia City at all, but just hid somewhere.

But none of this matters anymore.

Most importantly, she had to find a way.

Otherwise, I would really die here!

"well."

Just as Etraina turned her brain and thought about how to survive, a sigh suddenly came.

It's Qin Ran.

Qin Ran shook his head while sighing.

"More cautious than I thought."

Qin Ran said this.

Then, he walked straight towards the "Double Swords" Cilic "Beast" Ederson on the opposite side.

"Wait, they are..."

Etraina opened her mouth to stop it.

However, the words of the temple deacon came to an abrupt end.

Cilic, who claimed to be able to catch up with Feng'er's speed, just waved his swords, and his hands holding the sword were crushed by Qin Ran.

Ignoring the knife blade and the arrow penetrated Edson's neck was broken by Qin Ran.

Everything happened in an instant.

The temple deacon didn't even see the whole process clearly.

What she saw was the result.

The temple deacon was stunned and his mind was stiff.

It was not until the sound of sharp metal cutting flesh and blood came from behind that the temple deacon seemed to be awakened. When she subconsciously turned around, she saw a scene that would be unforgettable for life.

A tough and narrow sword shuttles back and forth between the shadows and the human body.

Every time I shuttle, one person will fall to the ground.

Every time I go through, the wail of the soul will sound.

The narrow sword was like the sickle of the god of death, harvesting one prey after another.

The people who surrounded them all fell to the ground and died in a few breaths.

And the narrow sword brought a burst of joy, and the milk swallow flew to Qin Ran like returning to the nest.

In the night wind, under the moonlight.

The long sword and the crow feather cloak dance with the wind.

The sword light flashed.

Flying.
