Chapter 261 Chronicles of Temple City


Chapter 261 Chronicle of Temple City

When Li Wei left with the witch, Malu also started to process the ingredients.

He first got the chef's knife back from Cerberus and cut off one of the Sweet Potato Knight's arms.

This arm alone weighed almost 300 kilograms, and it smelled sweet. Malu couldn't help but cut off a finger, peeled off the skin and ate it raw.

The taste is indeed quite good, but it makes Skylark keep looking at it.

After that, he cut off the other arm and stuffed it into the collection bag together. The remaining 400 kilograms of weight he left for the purple eggplant with five-star ingredients that never tires.

With the bonus of 100% ingredient processing efficiency of the chef's knife, Malu cleaned up very quickly, taking less than 5 minutes, but even so, there were more activated plants nearby visible to the naked eye.

Ma Lu did not delay any longer, and immediately led a group of witches out of Wangtian Forest.

Since the missile fell, Ouroboros has not spoken again. The girl pursed her lips all the way, appearing unusually silent.

Especially when everyone arrived at the scene and saw the corpses on the ground and the deep crater left by the explosion, her face immediately lost all color and turned pale.

Although he could still carry out Ma Lu's orders in the subsequent battles, he felt as if he had lost his soul.

The faces of Cerberus, Skylark and others are also not very good. Even though they have just defeated a strong enemy, they are not as excited as before.

Before leaving, Skylark was still looking around, seeming to be looking for something.

Back on the aircraft, Ma Lu saw that the four of them looked like they were mourning for their heirs, so he took the initiative to propose to find a restaurant to have a big meal after returning to the city, which could be regarded as a reward for everyone.

As a result, even the most greedy Skylark did not agree this time, but turned his little face away.

So Malu said to Bird of Paradise, who seemed relatively calm among the four, "Don't you like reading books? This time, go back and find a bookstore. I will grant you 5,000 holy silver coins to buy the books you want to read."
< br>However, Bird of Paradise also said in a rare way this time, "I've...not been in the mood to read recently."

"Then I'll save the money for you, and wait until you read it first before buying it."

Before Malu finished speaking, he heard Skylark mutter in a low voice, "The knight is a bad guy."

The purple-haired girl was more direct, raising her eyebrows, and a hint of ridicule appeared at the corner of her mouth. .

"It seems that you really consider yourself a knight, but we won't attend your promotion banquet."

"Okay," Malu looked at Ouroboros, "What about you, you have What do you want to say? Let’s take this opportunity to say it together.”

Ouroboros shook his head.

Ma Lu then looked at the other three people again, "I know you are dissatisfied with me, but I just made the best choice for us at the moment. The missile has fallen. This cannot be changed. Just because we are There is no way to survive in the wild. Since the Witch Alliance is gone, we can only go back to the Temple City. "

"Is Shrike really... dead?" Skylark said with red eyes. .

"I don't know." Malu answered simply.

He had been staring at the chessboard map when the explosion occurred. The Shrike's head did disappear with the others, and it looked like it was killed by the explosion.

But according to the scenes in movies and novels, if you don’t see the corpse with your own eyes, there is still the possibility of resurrection, not to mention that there are spells in this world.

Maybe the Shrike teleported at the last moment and escaped from here. As long as she runs far enough, she can't be found on the chessboard map.

But even if the Shrike hadn't died, the Witch Alliance's losses this time were obviously heavy. There was already a huge gap in strength between them and the Church of Order. After this battle, the disparity in strength between the two sides would only become even greater.

To be honest, Malu couldn't see any possibility of them winning, not even with him.

The Church of Order had received the oracle before the disaster and began to prepare for the construction of the Temple City. It has been operating for hundreds of years and has become deeply rooted. It cannot be easily challenged by external forces.

What's more, the number of witches is still small compared to ordinary humans.

This is also the reason why the Church of Order trains and treats witches in an almost inhuman way, but it does not cause too much dissatisfaction in the city.

In contrast, the Witches Alliance is a minority organization that aims to liberate witches, although it can get the secret support of some witches like Skylark and Cerberus.

However, most ordinary people only have fear and fear of them. Although this is affected by the church's propaganda, the most important thing is that the two sides do not have many common interests.

Ordinary witches such as Skylark and Cerberus may not be able to see this, but Shrike, as the leader of the Witches Alliance, should be very aware of this.

The attack on the mining sites in the Goradot Mountains that she led previously did cause some trouble for the church, but it also further increased the distrust of witches among ordinary people.

Ma Lu didn't quite understand the meaning of her actions.

The purple-haired girl was worried about another thing, "Hey, why don't you take this opportunity to kill Levi too? That guy killed so many people in one go, even his own witch. What are you doing?" I still have to be loyal to him..."

"Indeed, with Li Wei's condition at the time, it is possible to take some risks and kill him," Ma Lu admitted, "But this will not be good for us, the Holy Knights. The deputy leader and all the elite troops were wiped out, and in the end we were the only ones who returned to Temple City. In addition, we have no actual evidence to prove that Shrike is dead. The church will definitely list us as a key suspect... As for our allegiance...

Ma Lu paused, "I don't know why Li Wei suddenly valued me so much. I couldn't refuse in that situation. "

"In the final analysis, it is not for your own future. "Cerberus pouted, but from the look of her, she accepted Malu's explanation.

The Bird of Paradise, which had been silent before, suddenly interjected, "You asked me if there are any books I want to read, and there is indeed one. But it can't be bought with money. ”

"Huh?"

"The "Chronicles of the Temple City" is not the abridged one that is circulated outside, but the real "Chronicles of the Temple City", which has been kept by the clerk of the church. Compiled and stored in the library on the 69th floor, only the higher-ups of the church can read it.

“If you can become a master, you should have the right to go to the 69th floor. "

"You want me to bring that book out to you? "

"No need. "The Bird of Paradise said, "That would be too dangerous. As long as you help me take a look at the history of the 14th year of the Holy Calendar, and then come back and tell me. ”

"This..."

"Don't you want to go?"

"No, the main reason is that I can't read." Malu thought for a while and confessed that he was illiterate, but Then he added, "But I can take a picture of it for you."

"That's better."
