Finally, as the missionaries were shuttled through Northwind County, people from the Count William's Family of South Highland Province sent a team.
Vampires transformed from humans with pale skin are not particularly afraid of the sun, and can still move around freely when the weather is cool.
They made the corpse come alive, or rather, they made the corpse speak.
Through words that no one can understand, people wonder whether they are Undead Mages or Demon of the Abyss under the skin of these vampires.
In short, it was determined that the assassin came from the Church and the order came from Pope.
"Find them and hand them over to the Governor."
Count Winter and Count Soron gave the order immediately. They had an advantage that other nobles did not have, and that was the Catfolk assassin.
At the same time, Northwind Province nobles from several counties began to search their respective territories. No matter how secretive the assassin was, he would leave traces in various ways.
No one knows how many Black Swan Assassin the Church sent to Northwind Province, but when all the nobles in this province began to exert their strength, the assassins could not hide them all.
The assassin who was found was not so scary, he was just a more powerful supernatural being.
Boom!!!
Iron hooves trampled on the muddy ground, raising dry dust.
Perhaps it was because Thundercloud County that heavy rain brought too much rain, Northwind Province not even a drop of rain fell for more than half a month.
In the dust and smoke, the knights hunted for the killers from the Church, and the nobles also suffered from these Black Swan counterattacks in desperate situations.
"Northwind Province On this land, with the arrival of the pioneers Lordship, there is not much land that is ownerless. In this case, the Church's assassins cannot hide for long unless their food falls from the sky."
Any stranger who appears in the territory of any noble will be discovered immediately, so it is difficult for those assassins to obtain food from within the territory.
A few cities may be their only choice.
Northwind Province borders Winter's Chill and Northlands. The nights here are also very cold. They either kill civilians and live in civilian houses, or rest in the city. As for the wild, Ryan knows very well that they do not have so many warm equipment.
These assassins don't look like they can rely on their energy and blood to resist the cold.
"So, the more desperate the situation, the crazier it becomes."
"A lot of people are going to die."
Just as Ryan thought, the number of Black Swan is more than expected. According to some tips from Count Winter, there are already more than one hundred Black Swan.
These assassins were forced to survive, and began to give up their lives due to their devout beliefs.
In their continuous assassinations, more than thirty bright Pioneerss were killed, and those Lordships who came from the north died in the assassinations.
The price the Church paid was the painful death of more than 180 Black Swan Assassin.
But... how can the assassin's life be compared with that of the nobles? Lordships panicked, Marquis of Northwind also panicked, and Master Marquis's panic caused those extraordinary people in Marquis's territory to start taking action, completely cutting off all Black Swan Assassin's ways of survival.
So, when Legendary Knight also left Thundercloud Mountain and began to sweep away the haze of Thundercloud County, forty-three assassins killed Thundercloud Mountain.
On this day, the people of the Marquis leader once again saw a Miracle, where the sky was split open by golden sunlight, shining on the mountain peak.
Thousands of people knelt on the ground and piously called for light, but the face of Marquis of Northwind on Thundercloud Mountain was not sunny at all.
Next to him, there were three Lordships lying there. These Lordships came here again to be protected by him out of fear of assassination.
But still dead.
Even the divine power bred in his body was forced to activate. The power that could resist Legendary was actually used on a group of assassins.
"How dare they! How dare they try to kill me!!!"
Looking at the furious Marquis of Northwind, some Lordship became nervous. Yes, even Marquis of Northwind was assassinated. Maybe they were not as safe as their elders said when they came to Northwind Province.
It's too dangerous here.
"I now declare a crime against you as an Imperial Knight."
"You participated in killing the empire's Lordship, the nobles Columbus Royal Family personally ennobled, God of Light favored Pioneers, and you tried to assassinate the empire's Marquis of Northwind."
"In the name of the Imperial Knights, I will judge and expel you!"
Legendary Knight Mulan finished speaking, and Gargoyle behind him shot towards the missionaries below from the sky.
"Escape!"
Adriana roared loudly, while holding the Church token on his chest. The next moment, the sky was illuminated by the snow-white Holy Radiance. This Archbishop was bathed in Holy Radiance, sacred and noble, and his eyes had transformed from human pupils into pure white majestic eyes, with three pairs of illusory wings emerging behind him.
"In the name of Dawn, I declare you to be guilty of death!"
Sky-rank, the white sharp blade fell from the sky, falling towards those Gargoyle, but before that, Legendary Knight had already arrived on top of Gargoyle's head.
Mighty blood, Legendary's power has always been an adjective. The moment he raised his head and punched upward, all Divine Art dissipated.
"I will - as an Imperial Knight - expel you!"
Boom!!!
With the arrow from the string, Knight Mulan had already arrived in front of Archbishop, and punched Archbishop in the chest. The sound of broken bones could be heard clearly. Even with the blessing and Divine Art, Adriana was still no match for Legendary.
Blood sprayed out, and Archbishop fell towards the north, while Legendary behind him was still chasing.
She knew that she could not save those devout believers.
"They are all followers of our Lord, and they enter the empire with me as emissaries!"
She shouted loudly, the six wings behind her had disappeared, her eyes were full of pain and unwillingness.
"But they have no tokens."
"Threatening Imperial Noble's life, they must die!"
Within the rules, these missionaries can do whatever they want. Now that there is evidence of the assassination and it has happened, then this is a war.
Outside of the rules, killing those missionaries was no trouble.
Only the Adriana in front of me has a more sensitive identity.
The news carried between South has already made Marquis of Northwind know why Black Swan Assassin appears in Northwind Province, it is because in South On the battlefield of E, the new star of the Mayers Family killed a future Cardinal Archbishop, and the person who might be Pope caused revenge.
The Adriana in front of him was no less important than the person who was killed.
So, she would just be expelled.
Archbishop was running, Divine Art was blessing her, and Legendary was following her from a distance. It wasn't until the other party disappeared into Northern Lands that Legendary Knight turned around and went back.
"Dawn's glory will never end in any darkness!"
The missionary was coughing up blood and yelling, then Divine Art flooded his body and released the last Divine Art.
It had no power, but his piety was sensed by Deities and sent back to Church of Dawn.
In the end, he offered no resistance and simply passed the message back to the Church.
Marquis of Northwind was driven completely crazy by the assassination, and in Frozen Earth Territory, Ryan was also numb as he looked at Archbishop Adriana who came to his castle covered in blood.
