069, thank you

That night, after the grand banquet ended, Rhode Dick was tired and stayed in the backyard of the temple to rest. The so-called temple is not just a temple, it is the largest building complex in the city-state, and there are many courtyards and garden-style buildings behind it for the priests to live.

Lord Julian worked tirelessly and took advantage of the opportunity when everyone was there to privately summon several people after the meal, including the oldest priest in the Cape Temple, Faljol Judas, the current patriarch of the Lington family, Obama, Obama's youngest brother Hillary and others.

It is an honor to be summoned by Lord Julian alone. The content of the conversation is not public and it has something to do with Amon. Julian asked the oldest priest who was present when he first read Nero's last words? Ask Fayol Judah Amon's experience reporting to Rod Dick, and carefully compare Amon with what he said to him to see what was different? If Amon talks about his experience of obtaining Nero's relics twice, it is worth doubting.

Fayol Judah took this opportunity and said, "I think that foreigner is definitely not simple. He has been staying in the inn for several days and can deliver his staff to Lord Dick's house at any time. But he waited until the day of the Monthly Temple Ceremony, and stopped the city lord's carriage in public, with a deep scheming. I suspect that he had not told the whole truth, and must have seen something else in Lord Nero's last words, or got something else."

Julian pondered quietly, "Do you think you should find out this matter? He is not an Eju. If he really knows something he shouldn't know, it would be troublesome to promote it in a foreign country."

Fayol Judah had his own selfish intentions. When he heard these words, he couldn't help but think of them and said with a pleasing voice: "The best way is of course to ask him clearly, or to make him unable to speak out forever. But this must not be made public, otherwise it will affect the city lord and your reputation."

Julian glanced at Fayol, then asked again: "I just asked, I didn't want to do anything. But I see Obama, Lington and Hillary Lington were very dissatisfied with Amon, right?"

Fayol Judas nodded and said, "Yes, they once suggested that the Lord of the City Lord imprison Amon and interrogate him, but he was scolded by Lord of Dick."

Julian smiled: "Mr. Dick is wise and should scold such rude and stupid advice. How can the city lord destroy his reputation? As a ruler, his reputation among the people is priceless, so that orders can be prohibited... Fayol, please retreat and let Obama and Hillary come in. I will stay in the cape city-state for a long time, and I may ask you for help in many things in the future."

Fayol nodded repeatedly and said, "It is the honor of Judah to be able to serve the Lord!"

Julian summoned two nephews of the Lington family, chatted about some gossip that seemed unrelated to outsiders, expressed condolences to the Lington family, expressed condolences for their ancestral relics after more than thirty years later, and expressed a lot of emotion about the daytime incident. Naturally, he also mentioned the foreigner Amon, who left immediately after receiving the generous gift.

He had already drunk a lot of wine in the evening, and the Lington brothers became more and more excited as they spoke with the alcohol. They thought that Amon came to the cape city-state to return the staff because he could not open the space ring and did not dare to easily find a great magician to help him. Nero must have mentioned something in his message in the cave, but the cunning foreigner did not say that he should have been detained and interrogated clearly, but unfortunately the city lord refused to allow him.

Julian smiled and said, "The decision of the Lord of the City is very wise and reasonable. You should never be rude to Amon publicly. However, Lord Nero's detailed last words in the cave should be found out clearly. It was left by your ancestors, and you are qualified to ask. But Lord of the City has ordered that some things must not be leaked. My opinion is completely consistent with Lord of the City Dick."

The brother seemed to have thought of something, exchanged glances with each other, then chatted for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.

After the Lington brothers left, Julian called his confidant Vitru. The follower he specially brought with him during this inspection was also a high priest of the Temple of Isis and a level six magician. The two had conspired a lot. Vitru nodded in a serious face. Julian finally said: "You must be careful when dealing with that Amon. He can travel thousands of miles across the desert to safely reach the cape city-state, at least a mid-level warrior. I can see that he has learned physical skills."

Vitru: "There should not be too many people involved in this matter. I will take a few elite warriors and choose from your personal guards. You will not go out for the time being when you stay in the city-state. You will not go out for a few days. It will not be suspicious for the warriors who are accompanying the protection of this journey."

Julian visited the city-state this time and not only brought two magicians, but also a personal bodyguard with twelve warriors. He himself was an eighth-level magician, and he was also picking up and dropping off along the road of the empire, so he didn't need these protections at all, but the pomp and ceremonial priest of the Temple of Isis is a must.

The great magician thought for a while and said, "Then let Havan lead the team. He is only a small step away from becoming a seventh-level warrior. If you do this and then go back and become a big warrior, I will try to find an opportunity to let him take over Gabriel's position. Gabriel is wholeheartedly guarding the Saint and has become Maria's right-hand man. She is the one who should be sent out from the Temple of Isis!... I won't say these words for now, let's talk about your plans first."

Vitrue echoed: "Haven is your guard captain, of course he is absolutely trustworthy. He led the team to pick three more warriors, so I will naturally be foolproof when I was with him. Moreover, Haven is also a hunter and has learned a lot of skills in the Temple of Isis. He is best at tracking and assassination. No matter where Amon goes, no matter how hidden he is, he cannot escape."

Julian nodded with satisfaction and warned him very cautiously: "Haven has also been awakened by the second power, mastering low-level magic, and can also use intermediate scrolls. Of course, it is okay to act with you. But you can't underestimate the enemy. Amon has a large number of scrolls in his hand. You must prevent him from fighting the trapped beasts, be careful of those scrolls."

Vitru asked strangely: "He is not a magician, and it's useless to have a scroll."

Julian shook his head: "How can you be sure that there is no magician instructing him behind this kind of thing? If he is an intermediate warrior, he may also be awakened by the second level of power and can use auxiliary low-level magic, then he can also use intermediate scrolls."

Hawen was surprised: "Sir, do you suspect he is a magician?"

Julian said calmly: "It's absolutely right to be careful. As for whether this is the case, you will know when you start. There are three reels, one advanced reel and two intermediate reels. Take it and give one intermediate reel to Havan in case of emergency."

Vitru quickly refused: "These scrolls are very precious, so you should keep them yourself. We dare not use them well."

Julian insisted: "It is best not to use it. I don't want to waste them on Amon, so that you can take them with you. Then again, it's nothing if you use these scrolls. There are more scrolls on Amon, and you won't suffer any loss as long as you take him down."

After hearing this, Vitru accepted the scroll and asked again: "What are the instructions of sir?"

Julian sneered: "If Haven tracks down Amon, you might as well leak the news to Obama Lington, but don't let Obama know who sent the news, I think they will track it."

Vitru asked in confusion: "What does this mean by sir? Don't you keep it strictly confidential?"

Julian replied: "Yes, of course, it must be kept strictly confidential. What you do cannot be found out. But if something goes wrong, such as the movement of using the scroll is too loud and people accidentally find it out, someone will take the blame, right? Even if someone investigates it, you will only find that Obama has secretly tracked Amon."

Vitru raised his thumb and said, "Sir, wise!"

Julian ordered again: "I will give the guards a holiday tomorrow morning and let them relax in the city-state. As for you, I will send you back to Meng Feisi to report and settle some affairs, and at the same time send a secret letter to the other two high priests. After you leave the city, you will meet with Hawen and get rid of Amon's affairs."

Lord Julian suddenly received the order from the Saint to stay in the Cape City State for a year, but he did not prepare in advance, so the next day he sent Vitru back to Meng Feisi to report and settle some affairs and help him get some things back. Vitrude set out early in the morning. The kind Lord Julian cared for his subordinates and also gave the personal soldiers who had been guarding each other for these days, allowing them to wander around the city State.

Lord Rhodes Dick, who had worked hard for many days, finally returned to the house, and his entourage and staff also returned to the house one after another. When Aristotle entered the door, he was stopped by a gatekeeper and said to him respectfully: "Sir, when Mr. Amon left yesterday, I ask me to hand this over to you."

The gatekeeper handed over a box made of coconut shells. The carving was very beautiful. It was a gadget that Amon bought when he was shopping a few days ago. The glue sealed the mouth and couldn't figure out what it was inside. He had to cut the seal with a knife before it could be opened. Amon did not recognize Aristotle, but left him the same thing before leaving. This surprised Aristotle, and quickly returned to his room to open the box.

A divine stone shining with water waves was quietly lying in the box, which was the precious and extremely rare blue water heart. Picking up this blue divine stone, there was a small note below, with a short line of words: "Thank you!"

Seeing these, Aristotle understood that Amon had already recognized him, and before leaving, he left this blue water heart and this note, thanking Aristotle for his original grace of salvation.

Aristotle's expression was very complicated. He suddenly stomped his feet and walked out, and went straight to the house in the backyard to ask for Rod Dick. He knew very well that the city lord had been tired these days and had just lie down to rest. He also knew that Amon had left yesterday and should have been far away from the city state. He planned to wait for Dick to wake up and report some things before reporting, but when he saw what Amon left behind, he didn't want to wait any longer.

If it weren't for the most important aides in normal times, Rhodes Dick would have gotten angry, and the servants would not dare to inform him. However, in this case, there must be something important. The Lord of Dick sat in the bedroom wearing a clothes and called Aristotle in.

As soon as Aristotle entered the door, he first apologized, and then placed the small box on the table and opened it: "Sir, look, this is what Amon asked the concierge to forward me when he left."

Rhode Dick saw Youlan Shuixin at a glance, was shocked, picked up the note and looked at it, and asked in confusion: "Sir, what's going on?"

Aristotle sighed, "I'm afraid there is no impression that the Lord of the City is a miner in Duke. He mined the tears of the gods! He was also a servant of the Holy Maiden for three days. He said thank you because I saved him in Duke. I mentioned this to you. The child had grown up and could hardly recognize him, but he knew me."

He briefly talked about the past, and Lord Rhode Dick widened his eyes and said, "It's such a coincidence! I heard that Duke Town has been destroyed by the flood, and this Amon is still alive. It's really the favor of the gods! He mined the tears of the gods at the beginning, and it was also the favor of the goddess Isis. Why didn't this child tell the past? If I knew, I should thank him more!"

Aristotle: "If he doesn't say it, he will naturally have concerns or will not want to recall the disaster in his hometown. But this child is like a messenger of the gods to you. He mined the tears of the gods back then, and today he sent the staff of the priest of the city-state. You must protect such a person no matter how you do, and think about what he has brought to you?"

Roddick looked up and said, "What do you mean? Did something happen?"

Aristotle pondered: "To be precise, I don't know what will happen. It's just a personal suspicion. It's not convenient to say it, but when I see this thing, I have to say it, otherwise I will not be able to sleep. Lord Julian summoned a few people privately last night, which may be related to Amon. What's going on, you can ask Judas, and it's better to ask Lord Julian himself. I hope that things that damage your reputation and are ashamed of the favor of the gods. I hope all this is my heart!"

Rhode Dick's expression became solemn, and he waved his hand and said, "You go out first and call Fayol Judas."

Fayol Judas was surprised to be summoned by Rhodes Dick in the bedroom. After he saluted, Rhodes Dick asked directly: "What did Lord Julian summon you last night? What did he say?"

Fayol dared not hide it in front of him, reported on his private meeting with Julian, and told every conversation as in detail, but ignored the passage of his bad words from Amon. Finally, he explained carefully: "Master Lord, it is you who asked me to arrange all the daily life of Julian and try to meet the various requirements he made. I think Master Julian was very worried about Amon, but I also advised him not to do anything that hurts your reputation."

Rhode Dick nodded with a calm face: "I understand, notify the guards to prepare horses, I'm going to see Lord Julian."

Julian was awakened by the servant. He was about to get angry, but he heard that the Lord Dick was coming to visit urgently, so he put on his clothes to see the guests. In the reception room, he sent everyone else away. Rhode Dick asked straight to the point: "Great Master, do you want to chase after Amon who has left? Is there any place to need my service?"

Julian was stunned when asked this, but then smiled and said, "Lord Dick, everything is really in your city-state! But I'm very surprised, why did you ask such a question? Are you doubting me?"

Rhode Dick quickly shook his head and said, "I dare not, no matter what Lord Julian does, there is a reason, and I should provide assistance. I just want to say one thing, if you hurt Amon, it will damage the city-state, the temple and your reputation, which is not worth the loss."

Julian could still laugh, and he added with a smile: "This will be a very serious harm to your reputation, Lord Lord, and of course I understand this. So please rest assured that no matter what happens, the situation you are worried about will not happen. Is it okay to make such a promise?"

Rhode Dick didn't say anything, Julian said with a smile: "Lord Dick, I was ordered to stay in the Cape Town State for a year to supervise and guide the affairs of the temple here. I would like to ask you one thing, just a hypothesis - whose will will you maintain between me and a foreign hunter?"

Rhode Dick lowered his head and said, "Why do you ask such a question? Of course it is you, the noble Lord Julian, you don't even need to say this... Actually, I have always had a hope that you can become the main priest of the Cape City-state, and the staff returns at this time, which symbolizes the will of the gods!"

Rhode Dick suddenly mentioned this, which surprised Julian a little. He laughed and said, "I have only been here for a few days, especially after seeing Lord Nero's relics, I already know that the Lord's Lord can have no less than the high priests in the Temple of Isis. But I can't help myself. This is not something I can decide. It requires the orders of the Temple of Isis and approved by Pharaoh Eju. Therefore, you are useless to ask me for my own request, and I cannot agree even if I am willing."

Rhode Dick raised his head and said, "As long as you are willing, I hope Dick will not be rude. If this day really happens, everything in the Cape City State needs to be strongly supported by you."

Julian's smile even stronger: "It turns out that the Lord Dick valued me so much and was willing to give up the power of the Lord's priest. Julian was a little flattered... In this case, why should we say something to suspicious of each other? I promise the Lord the Lord that I will never do anything that hurts the city state and your reputation, but there are two things I want to remind you privately."
