Chapter 394 Quiet Night
"Tsk, you men are always thinking of conspiracies and intrigues. Which one of you who takes care of our business has not been called "Holy Son" by us?"
The humans tried poorly to conceal it, but every elf could see through their straightforward and simple facial expressions.
Another Khorne believer, with only half of his body left, laughed viciously:
"Yes, the bitch's master changes every day, but there is only one who can make you kneel down obediently. Do you dare to swear to your God?"
The women's faces flushed abnormally, and just when Lynch thought they were going to continue to make excuses, these freaks with distorted minds suddenly stared blankly at the eyes of the Blood God's believers who were glaring at them in the cage opposite.
Sword Master Hoss noticed something was wrong at the first moment and hastily raised his sword and stabbed the women.
The women's arms slid out of the chains like snakes. Their nails, which had been cut flat, suddenly grew into eagle claws and dug into their eye sockets without hesitation.
The scholars watching outside the interrogation room constructed a high-level light magic almost at the same time, but these Slaanesh believers seemed to have gone crazy instead of being inspired by the devil.
The source of the magic that could heal the chaos was not found, and the followers of Slaanesh held their eyes and twitched in the cage, constantly whispering "Slannis".
Lynch was sure that they had gone crazy a long time ago, because until this moment their endocrine system and emotions were the same as before.
There is no need to delve too much into the actions of cultists; what supports their actions is not logic but spontaneity.
Women died one after another under the sword of the Sword Master. Lynch no longer paid attention to the farce-like ending. Next, the elves would use special methods to interrogate the "Purple Rose".
The lizardmen walked out of the tower of the Elf Center. Teclis, who led the dwarves and humans to exchange silver, had returned. Lynch waited for a moment. They would reunite after the archmage had dealt with the follow-up of the matter.
The wait was not long, it seemed like just a blink of an eye, or like Lynch was just in a daze for a moment, and the sun was about to set.
The archmage held a page of parchment and slowly approached the lizard man.
"According to relevant records, the Purple Rose Cult does not exist, but there is a trade organization in the Empire called the 'Rose Society'."
"Where is it?" Lynch had already guessed that it was either in Altdorf or in Marienburg.
"The entire Empire, with its headquarters in Marienburg, is a larger port city than Erengrad, and criminal activity there is more rampant than in Erengrad. Humans cannot run a world-class city by legitimate means."
"It's like the devil's choice." Crime breeds chaos, and chaos happens to be the hothouse that devils need. The laws of a chaotic land cannot restrain mortals, let alone devils, and the same goes for the laws of physics there.
"Are we going to deal with that so-called god?"
"Let's go to Middenheim first. The star map will determine our future. Perhaps the ancient saints have already predicted everything." I just don't know if they have taken the shadow of Tzeentch into consideration.
Tigris suddenly fell silent, and Lynch sensed his vague worry.
"Don't worry, it's just a demon."
"No, sir, that's not what I'm worried about. Perhaps we should leave tomorrow."
The wizard's advice made Lynch subconsciously look up at the stars. The Ichi constellation occupied the most conspicuous sea of stars, the Quiji constellation was not dim, the constellations of Kotego and Huangqi were both in auspicious positions, and even the Serpent constellation was not low.
There are absolutely no taboos today. This is a happy night, at least for the Lizardmen. There are probably bonfires lit in the rainforest of Lustria, and the skinks are probably holding wild ceremonies to celebrate the favor of the Lord of Cold-blooded Beasts.
Of course, it was probably still daytime there at this time.
Lynch quickly realized that the great wizard was not referring to celestial phenomena.
“That carriage is now a forbidden place for Sorian and Eugen. They would rather sleep on the carpet of the hotel than spend the night in the carriage.
Of course, if you need to, you can leave them behind and go immediately."
Lynch didn't need it.
"Wake them up early tomorrow morning."
After saying this, the lizardman left the tower in the center of the elf area.
Both humans and horses need rest, except for the lizardmen. The cold-blooded species have no concept of rest. Even if they are not assigned work, they will take the initiative to find things to do.
They were created to carry out endless tasks.
Lynch, who had nothing to do, wandered through the streets and alleys of the elves. The light here was brighter than that of other areas of the city combined.
There is a crystal chandelier every five meters on the street. Even as the night deepens, there are still many elves and humans walking on the street.
Most of the time there are more humans than elves, and of course, all humans who come to the elf district look decent.
The dissolute rich businessmen had to wear formal clothes properly, and the poor citizens had to take care of their beards and body odor.
Lynch could guess without asking that this was the elves' requirement. Elves always had strict regulations on the outside world.
Pedestrians were discussing anecdotes about Kislev and other parts of the empire. Some were boasting to their companions about the prosperity of various places, while others, like Lynch, were walking alone on the busy streets with their heads down.
When they meet elves, they will all show their awe without exception. The talkative ones will offer flattery, but in return the elves will respond with coldness and implicit disgust.
Lynch knew that the elves' hidden arrogance could not scare away these businessmen. As long as the profits still existed, the most ferocious wild dogs could be touted by the businessmen as docile and good dogs.
Not to mention that the elves were only disparaging humans implicitly, and in fact, it wouldn’t hurt for them to say it out loud, as successful businessmen didn’t need to care about their face.
If you recognize the elf as your father, you will get the elf's support, and the streets and alleys of Erlengrad will be full of the elves' sons and daughters.
As Lynch approached the elves' dock in the west of the Special Zone, he heard the magical roar of the eagle ship as it docked.
Lynch subconsciously looked to the west. His sight passed over the elves' tower-like buildings and fell on the familiar warship.
This was definitely not a ship from a naval war, but all the elves' ships looked the same to Lynch.
There were indeed some familiar faces on it. Lynch's eyes swept across the hull of the Eagle Ship and confirmed that it was a military ship from Charis.
The elven prince named Valin brought the White Lion warriors to disturb the night of the elven special zone. When the elven ambassador Tasis and officials went to greet them, Lin Qi overheard why Valin came.
Asur built a new colony on the island of Orbion. Erengrad was the last stop that Valin visited. All the elven overseas colonies would know that they had a new harbor on the sea.
This is good news, but the Imperials and Bretonnians have not yet freed themselves from the war to go to the places they had previously agreed on to build overseas neighborhoods. Fortunately, the elves still value contracts, and the human land has always been empty there.
But for the local indigenous people, this is probably bad news.
