The position of vice president of the institute was won, and he was a small step closer to success.

Simon and everyone are discussing selling Lord Scott's property in exchange for more silver coins, and then waiting for the storm to subside before listing the luxurious residence for sale. In the name of the Sheriff and the church, the proceeds from the sale will be donated to the church for help.

The suffering poor - of course, in name only, the greedy Mr. Sheriff will never let the church bugs get a cent.

The plundered objects were hidden in the basement and piled up in a large room. Simon had arranged for people to sort and sort them, and strictly prohibited anyone from tampering with them secretly. If they were caught, they would have their hands chopped off without mercy.

Two sets of sofas have been added to the hall. Miss Zhiluo purchased them personally. They are made from the softest and warmest seal underbelly fur. Hundreds of seals have to be slaughtered for one sofa, which is expensive. At the same time, magic is used inside.

The circulation system operated by the crystal core can automatically clean the stains left on the sofa and kill toxic substances. It is very powerful. Just these two sofas cost more than a thousand silver coins. Hamal was so distressed that he did not dare to say more.

What.

Aubrey, Troy, and Morey, several leaders of the Sunflower Club, gathered in the hall and competed for Miss Zhiluo's favor. Aubrey was clever and slippery, making endless jokes, and pretending to perform the technique of stabbing five times in one second to win over everyone.

Applause, but unfortunately Miss Zhiluo was absent-minded and sat quietly on the sofa waiting for her brother.

Shen Zhimo walked in and shook off the remaining snow from his shoulders, and asked, "Is Tang En okay?"

"Everything is fine. He is recovering. Yes, he is recovering. In less than a month, he will be as good as before." Aubrey was secretly touched by the master's concern for his subordinates.

Zhiluo Tilin stood up and held his hand and said: "Brother, do you think the sofa I bought is good-looking?" There are countless precious things in the girl's home, even the urinal is made of gold, but now she is asking for a sofa.

Shen Zhimo presented the treasure.

"It's okay, just sit comfortably."

There was a noise outside the door. It seemed that the guards were arguing with someone. Shen Zhimo frowned and said, "Aubrey, go out and take a look. If anyone doesn't have the foresight to cause trouble in the Sheriff's residence, give him two stabs first."

"No problem, I like excitement." Aubrey didn't care. He pinned the tattoo on his lower back and swayed out.

Rotiline was about to take this opportunity to talk to her brother about her ideas for house decoration. Not long after, Aubrey jumped in with a disgraced face and shouted: "Simon, call all the guys who are working in the basement!"

Shen Zhimo's face sank and he said, "No, I'll go take a look."

Under the steps at the door were two orcs in ragged clothes. The fully armed guards held long swords in their hands. They confronted them nervously. The orcs looked angry and spewed out uncontrollable flames. The two orcs were naked in the winter.

He has dark red skin, tangled muscles, and a body that is taller and stronger than the Iron Tower. He is at least two meters tall by visual inspection. No wonder the two guards with weapons are trembling.

In Shen Zhimo's knowledge, only the barbarian beasts who are different from the Thunder Emirate have dark red skin. They are violent and powerful. One is worth ten on the battlefield. They are simply synonymous with killing machines. After the war, the barbarian beasts have nothing to do and cannot produce.

Many people have become mercenaries and murderers,=|

"Go to the room on the third floor and get my mithril musket." He ordered the guard who made a fool of himself and said to the orcs: "Why are you acting wild here?"

The orc roared: "Who are you?" His face was hideous and hateful, his voice was like thunder, and the guard couldn't help but tremble.

Another guard shouted loudly: "Master Saga is the master of this place, the Sheriff of Thorn Bird City! Do you want to die?"

"Sheriff?" The wild orcs are a little softer. The security management in Elida City is strict. Even though the wild orcs are cruel by nature, they still have to restrain their temper occasionally for the sake of livelihood. Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is the habit of almost every intelligent creature.

.

There was silence for a moment. Shen Zhimo took the gun and aimed it at the thin orc who was closer to him, and said with a smile: "Yes, in Thorn Bird City, the Sheriff has the right to control any life, for you two

The choice is, one is to test the power of musket bullets with your head, or the other is to kneel down and beg for mercy, and I will let you go home and have a good New Year."

The barbarian orc was indignant and said angrily: "What's so scary about a broken shotgun? If you dare, challenge me in a duel!"

"I don't want to bully you, so forget it. Who ordered you to go wild? Nefarian?" Shen Zhimo raised his hand, and flames burst out from the muzzle of the gun, breaking the arm-thick branches outside the wall, and snow fell one after another.

"What Nefarian? I don't know him, we are just passing by. Shoot quickly! The courage of the orcs will never disappear!" The barbarian orcs glared at the muzzle of his gun. Except for the batch produced by Karabor, there are no other products in the world.

The power of the musket is not very powerful. It is enough to kill a wild duck, but it is barely enough to kill someone. The orcs were surprised by the power of the mithril musket, but due to their violent nature, they were not afraid, but they did not dare to move again.

"Why did you come to my door and hit someone when you were just passing by?"

There was a bloodthirsty desire in the eyes of the savage orc: "I'm starving to death! I want to find a job where I can kill people and set fire to it. Seeing that your house is tall and beautiful, I just came over to ask questions, but your guards beat me and cursed me.

We are despicable beasts! I will use my blood to wash away the insults I have suffered."

"Forget it." The two orcs looked like honest people, but Shen Zhimo had no intention of letting the guards apologize: "You don't wear clothes in the cold weather, and you are very strong. Are you interested in working for me?"

The orc held his neck and shouted loudly: "No!"

This was quite like what a child would say when he was angry. Shen Zhimo laughed: "Wait a minute, don't be too busy refusing. I promise to make sure you have a full stomach every day, and the most important thing is that everyone respects you. You

Will be proud of your lineage and strength."

"Is there such a good thing? What do you want us to do?"

Shen Zhimo did have the idea of ​​​​recruiting his subordinates. Aubrey and Simon were loyal enough, but unfortunately they were weak in ability. Rodan was also bound by his status as a gryphon knight. It was difficult to let go of his hands and feet to do things. If these two orcs were trained well, it would be better.

It can be regarded as a big help. "I need two bodyguards to protect my safety so that others will not invade me."

The barbarian orcs were not stupid, so they said, "You're just going to let us be thugs?"

"Yes, I am the Sheriff of Thorn Bird City. I am the best at what I say here. Don't worry. As long as you have my orders, your actions are the law. Look at how cold the weather is. You are still wandering outside, begging.

Others give you a good meal, come here, I will show you respect." Shen Zhimo photographed.

Shoulder: "Go shake hands with our orc brothers."

"Yes, sir." The guard was very cooperative. He stretched out his hand first and said, "I apologize to you."

Generally speaking, as long as you give enough face, the orcs won't care about anything. The barbarian orc accepted the apology and said: "Well, I think I am willing to work for you. As long as I can have a full stomach, I can do anything." "Okay."

. Go in and talk, there will be a warm stove and steaming barbecue, as well as fine wine, you can drink as much as you want."

The two orcs were not polite. They entered the door one after another. They were trembling with relief from the heat in the hall. There were scars on their chests, and their fingers, ears, and shoulders were all purple and blue from the cold.

, the worn-out boots were full of mud, dragging out a long string of footprints. I don’t know how embarrassed he was, and he had obviously suffered a lot.

"Come to the restaurant first, Aubrey, and prepare a sumptuous lunch. I want to entertain the distinguished guests."

Aubrey fully thought that the chief would teach the arrogant orc a lesson, but unexpectedly he became an honored guest, and she cursed in her heart. Zhiluo Tilin saw that he had gone off to do other things without saying a few words, and was very angry.

I ran upstairs, not wanting to see anyone.

Shen Zhimo asked them to sit on the chair and asked: "Since you are willing to do things for me, then we are friends. I hope to know your origins. As friends, you must be honest, right? My name is Saga, and I am responsible.

How about your public security management in Thorn Bird City?"

The two barbarian orcs looked at each other, and the thinner one spoke first: "My name is Gul'dan. I was originally a shaman apprentice in the tribe. Uh... I'm too stupid. I can't always learn new knowledge. Mentor

They kicked me out. I began to feel that I could no longer stay in the village because they always laughed at us for being worthless. I vowed to use my strength to fight for the glory I deserved. In this way, my good friend Tager and I left

Village, come to Elida City to prove our strength." This guy was furious: "One day, I will let those country bumpkins know how powerful I am!"

"So what happened next? What interesting things happened?"

"What else can there be? We don't know anyone, and you humans discriminate against orcs. Didn't you say that the war is over? We are rejected everywhere. Except for those mercenary groups who are interested, everyone else ignores them. But

The mercenary group is too irritating. Seeing how bad our situation is, they actually want to sign a contract of prostitution. Bah! I am an upright man, why should I be a slave to others? "

"Well said, well said. I like a bloody man like you."

"There was a heavy snowfall in Elida City a few days ago. We couldn't stay any longer. We were trying to make a living by robbing people, but the guards were so tight everywhere that we couldn't do it, so we ended up living here."

"It's easy to say. Who on this street doesn't know that I treat people generously? Don't worry, you will have good food and drink. As long as you work hard, after a few years, I will give you money to go back to the village to beg for some fat-assed women."

When you become a wife, who else in your village dares to look down on her at that time?"

Eden brought a large pot of pork, only salt was added, and it was boiled to a white color. Anyone who looked at it would have no appetite. But Gul'dan and Tager smiled happily and gnawed more than ten kilograms of pork as soon as they grabbed it.

Let them be swept away, and even the life of a king will not be comparable.

"If you haven't eaten enough, you can take a shower and change clothes later. I will arrange a room for you to rest. In return, you must abide by the rules, not affect others, and obey my orders at any time."

Gul'dan was satisfied, patted his belly and said with a smile: "Of course, you are our boss, you can do whatever you ask."

Shen Zhimo walked out of the restaurant and called Saxon: "Go check the details of these two orcs. They must not be spies sent by someone to work as undercover agents." Saxon followed the order and left. Aubrey came up to meet him: "Sir, you

Just let them stay here? I always feel like they don’t look like good people.”

"Haha, don't worry." Shen Zhimo hugged the thief's shoulders and smiled: "We need cannon fodder to clean up, but if they can prove their strength and loyalty, I can consider changing the way to treat them. The staff always needs to be strengthened.

Isn’t it? Has Little Mario’s matter been resolved?”

"Not yet. Things are very difficult. We can't catch Earl Ernest's weakness. His daughter is about to get married, it seems. Tonight."

"Damn it, are you on business? I was expecting to see Earl Ernest's head tonight. Troy's propaganda machine has already started. How many civilians are waiting for his end. Do you want the prestige of the Dark Sunflower Society to be discredited?

"

"No, no, no, sir, let me think of another way and we will find a satisfactory solution."

The two were talking. Hamal hurried over, holding a gold-plated invitation card in his hand, wiping cold sweat: "Master, I'm extremely sorry. We just cleaned up the sofa and found an invitation card under the coffee table. It's from Europe.

Count Nestor sent someone to deliver it a few days ago, but I ignored it."

"It's okay, it's just the right time." When I opened it, I saw that it was the wedding invitation of Earl Ernest's daughter. He invited His Excellency Saga, the deputy director of the Ministry of Magic Research Institute, to go to the Cathedral of the Holy Light at three o'clock this afternoon to watch the ceremony, and at six o'clock in the evening.

Click to hold a grand banquet. "Okay, this wedding will definitely be full of blood. Let little Mario know that the sunflower will judge the determination and ability of action of evil."

…

After arriving in Elida City for nearly half a year, Shen Zhimo saw for the first time one of the most magnificent buildings in the capital besides the imperial palace. The Holy Light Cathedral. This building that perfectly blends Gothic and Baroque styles was built in 360

It was built ten years ago and took more than 140 years to be completed. The cathedral covers an area of ​​about 30,000 square meters. There are 196 supporting pillars alone, and the highest part of the main building reaches 71 meters.

, on the circular platform of the dome in the middle of the church, you can overlook the entire city of Elida.

There are countless priceless art treasures in it. The inner walls of the church were created by the most outstanding painters at that time, with huge murals. Every sculpture with mythological themes is an unparalleled masterpiece. There are seven statues on the eaves of the corridor below the church, with the face in the center.
