Chapter 484: The Death of the Empire's Greatest Swordsman



When Tel was about to take Sony away, the latter hesitated for a while and said to everyone present: "In a room deep in the third street of the slums in the east of the city, there are seven human believers who have joined the Adrian Church.

There is a stronghold of demon cultists in the underground sewers two streets away from the manor, you should go and clean it up quickly!"

Hearing this, Count Cass pointed at Anno and said, "Yesterday I commissioned Baron Anno to search for clues about the cultists. He had already obtained this information. We had already sent soldiers to guard the other two places when we came here."

"Have you found out everything already?"

Sony looked at An Nuo and asked in surprise, "Didn't you just arrive at Zijinlan City yesterday?"

Even Tel next to him was a little shocked.

It has been a week since the cultists first committed a crime in Zijinlan City, and the soldiers in the city have not found any useful intelligence.

It only took Anno one one night to find not only Sony, but also the hiding places of the other two cultists.

Are adventurers so professional?

"Sure enough, there are differences between people."

Sony smiled miserably, then looked at An Nuo and said, "Hey, why do people's cultivation talents vary? Why are years of hard work not as good as someone else's sudden enlightenment? I just want to explore the mysteries of magic, why did it turn out like this?"

"When you complain about your talent, others are complaining about their family background."

An Nuo was somewhat speechless and said, "You were able to break through to the fifth level in a short period of time. You must have asked your guards to help you improve your strength."

Sony nodded.

Seeing this, An Nuo continued, “Do you know that 99% of people in this world who want to level up must rely on themselves to constantly fight life-and-death battles with the enemy.

Ordinary people have to use their brains even if they want to get enough food, let alone a life-and-death battle?

The suffering they went through, you, the daughter of the Duke, have never experienced."

Sony was speechless, but she still wanted to argue.

"What about Baron Anno? If you don't have a very high talent for cultivation, how could you have such strength at such a young age?"

After hearing this, An Nuo looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and said in a deep voice, “When I was level 0, I was almost killed by the goblins.

When he was at level zero, he was nearly killed by a level one wind wolf.

When he was at the first level, he was almost killed by the second level Goblin King.

When I was in the second stage, I fought a huge battle with the army of undead zombies.

When he was at the third level, he almost died at the hands of a fourth level human.

When I was at the fourth level, I participated in the Battle of the Gaso River."

An Nuo glanced around and saw that everyone present had a shocked expression. He pretended to say, "I have achieved my current results after experiencing countless life and death experiences."

"is that so?"

Sony had nothing more to say and followed Tel away.

Count Cass walked up to Anno, gave him a thumbs up with admiration, and said, "Baron Anno's life experience is really rich. Just listening to you talk about it makes my blood boil. When I was young, I was also determined to become the number one swordsman in the empire."

An Nuo glanced at Cass's big belly and asked, "What happened next?"

"Oh, sword practice was too tiring, so I gave up."

"…Then your ambition is really cheap."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. It's time to go check out the situation at the base in the underground waterway."

After Anno took some materials from the demon, he and Cass led people to the underground sewer.

However, when they arrived, a large group of soldiers had already gathered there.

Judging from the corpses around and the damage to nearby streets and houses, a fierce battle had just taken place here.

After a little inquiry, Annuo learned that seven or eight demons had just emerged from here.

They were then restrained by soldiers, and the noise of the battle attracted the city defense soldiers.

In the end, after suffering considerable casualties, all the demons were killed.

"It seems that when we were fighting in the manor, the demons here started to take action."

An Nuo looked at the soul that flew into his body and said to Count Cass, "The situation in the slums should be resolved soon. In this way, all three strongholds will be resolved. My mission is also accomplished!"

"Don't worry, I'm also speeding up the preparation of supplies here, and the batch of supplies I promised you will be gathered on time."

Kas shook hands with Annuo and said with a smile, "I think you should consider how to transport so many supplies to the Dwarf Kingdom. It's a long way."

"I have my own way to deliver the supplies!"

"Then I won't worry about it. This time you not only helped me a lot, but also made Duke Howell owe me a favor."

Count Cass smiled brightly and said, "If you have time to come to the Roland Empire in the future, you are welcome to visit my territory. My territory is to the east of the Purple Gold Province."

An Nuo nodded and said, "No problem!"

Then the two separated.

"Judging from Tell's attitude, Duke Howell will most likely keep Sony."

As soon as he turned around, An Nuo's face turned gloomy.

Count Cass probably had thought of this, but he chose to compromise.

Regardless of what benefits Duke Howell gave to Count Cass afterwards, Sony, as a follower of Adrian, although not a fanatic, was still a certain threat to Annuo.

Sony believes in Adrian because of his strength, and he may make the same mistake again in the future.

However, keeping Sony is not necessarily a bad thing.

Anyway, all the fanatic demons in Zijinlan City have been cleared out, and no one can contact Adrian.

If Duke Howell really wanted to save Sony, he would certainly keep it under close watch.

Besides, maybe I can use Sony to deal with Adrian in the future.

Ordinary believers are not bound to the qualities of God - for example, there are knights who believe in the God of Knights and also rob others along the way, but this does not mean that the God of Knights is an evil god.

There is no right or wrong in belief, what is wrong is the way of using power.

Of course, churches like the Adrian Church that gain power through blood sacrifices are 100% wrong to humans. They are evil cults!

"In short, the matter of the cultists has come to an end for the time being!"

It only took half a day to complete the contents of the contract, and Annuo felt a lot more relaxed.

In the next two days, Annuo only went out once.

He sent Shadow to continue to stay with Adelaide in case of any accidents, and he himself rested well in the city for two days.

On the fourth day, Annuo left the hotel and waited in the square for a while.

At about eight o'clock, dozens of fully armed mercenaries walked up to Anno.

"Boss, where is the cargo we want to deliver?"

As the team leader, Wen Ze looked at An Nuo with a complicated expression.

Although it has been a while since An Nuo last came to Zijinlan City, Wen Ze still remembers An Nuo spending 500 gold coins to buy intelligence about the Dwarf Kingdom from him.

But they didn't expect that this time Annuo came to entrust them with a task.

“Follow me!”

An Nuo didn't waste any time and led Wen Ze's mercenary group directly to the place where Count Cass delivered the goods.
