Warhammer Seal

Chapter 32 The Shepherd

"A completely unguarded storage room, I feel like a trap."

Ruixi's worries were not superfluous. She couldn't even see a sentry outside the storage room of the Duchess's castle, which only showed that it was a trap.

And Wende also began to think about why there were no guards.

"Is it because the duchess is strong and doesn't need guards? Or is it because they are very confident that they only need to guard the outside of the castle?"

Who cares, starve to death the timid and the bold, all you need is to steal all the two forging materials in one wave, and finally use the hot iron to make equipment, which can be regarded as destroying the evidence.

Turning over into the window, a display case clearly wrote the names of Iselama silver and obsidian, and the two materials must be placed in the box.

It was almost dawn, but there was no time to check the goods, so they could only quickly take such a box, and the two hurried towards the outside of the noble area.

There is a carriage going out every morning. Wende and Ruixi only need to put on their masks and follow behind the carriage to pretend to be servants.

In addition, the Iron Armored Army in the inner city only adhered to the principle of strict entry and wide exit, and would only interrogate those who entered, and were not wary of those who came out.

When the two successfully got out of the inner city, the sky was already bright.

Uncle Censer also woke up early and lit his own stove. He should indeed find something for himself to do as Wende said, otherwise he would be depressed.

Just as the fire was lit, the door opened, and it was Wende and Ruixi who came back.

The box in their hands was quickly placed on the table, indicating that the two of them had completed their mission and brought back two rare materials for Uncle Incense Burner.

Wen De, who stayed up all night, has long lost the heroic appearance of the 16-year-old. At that time, he could stay up all night in the Internet cafe and then go back to class.

Now, let's sleep all morning, and then discuss the style of the armor with Uncle Xianglu.

Just when Wende's head just touched the pillow and Ruixi's head just touched Wende's arm, the door of Uncle Incense Burner's workshop was suddenly knocked open, and three guards came in with heavy steps.

One of them quickly controlled Uncle Incense Burner, while the other two walked slowly towards the material box that Wende had stolen.

"This person has all the stolen goods, do you have anything to say?"

It really is a trap!
Since the guards in Nun City were all standard troops, although they were extremely powerful on the frontal battlefield, they couldn't stop the little thieves at night.

So they used their tricks, and immediately sent guards to investigate all blacksmith shops and markets the moment the material box disappeared, so that such a theft case could be easily solved.

Wende saw the scene outside through the crack of the door. He never thought that he had been careful for so long, and he would lose everything if he showed his feet.

Recalling the laws of the empire, impersonating a nobleman is a capital offense, stealing the property of a nobleman is a capital offense, and sneaking into the duchess' castle is also a capital offense.

The only good news is that there is no such punishment as caning the corpse in the empire. It seems that there are three capital crimes, but in fact, only one death is enough.

run away?Wende looked outside the house, there were guards patrolling every corner of the city, and there were five or six giant swordsmen standing directly at the door, with no room to escape at all.

Uncle Censer was also scared to death, who knew that stealing things from nobles would end so badly.

The two guards smiled. It was a great achievement to find the stolen goods for the duchess. The two couldn't wait to walk to the box on the table.

With a sound of swiping, the material box was opened.

"Iron ingots and steel ingots? How come?"

The materials lying in the material box were not Iselama silver and obsidian, but ordinary forging materials, which made the three guards look at each other, and then one of the officers immediately understood what was going on.

"Tune the tiger away from the mountain, we have been deceived, hurry back and report! The real thief may have left the city!"

The guard immediately let go of Uncle Censer and rushed out the door, so that he didn't stop when he knocked down a girl.

This also made Wende in the room bewildered, with three points of fear and seven points of joy, and the remaining ninety points of confusion.

Could it be that the merchant tricked the duchess into selling ordinary metals as Iselama silver and obsidian?Or someone stole something before Wende.

No matter what, everyone is safe now, Uncle Xianglu's chest heaved violently, he had never experienced such an exciting thing before.

So much so that the customer outside the door called him three times before pulling him back from his panic.

"That, that, today I, temporarily, suspend business, come back tomorrow."

Just recovering from the panic, no one can work properly.

But the girl outside the door walked into the workshop as if she was familiar with it, took off her cloak, opened the material box just now, and put two heavy things into it at the same time.

"Islamar silver and obsidian."

Uncle Incense Burner's professional skills are very good, and he can tell what the material is at a glance.

The girl also nodded, indicating that he was right.

"As far as I know, you have always wanted these two things very much. I just happen to have them, so I will give them to you."

Those who come are not kind, and those who are kind do not come. Of course Wende is vigilant, but it is not easy to show hostility directly. After all, it is this girl who made them get rid of the suspicion of stealing things.

"But what's the price?"

The girl pointed at Wende's head, the implication made people shudder.

What force wanted Wende's head?

The girl shook her head again.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't want your head. Those bones and bones are of no value to us. What we want is the knowledge in your head."

"According to the observations of the Ranolde Church, we found that you seem to have quite a wealth of knowledge reserves. No matter where you go, you can make complete preparations in an instant without the need for prior investigation."

This is true, Wende knows a lot of things, from Naggaros to Cathay, he knows everything.

The girl sat on the table by herself, obviously taking this workshop as her own.

"Ranod Church originally wanted to lure you into it, but the higher-ups think carefully, you must also know the existence of our church, and you will bring a threat to the church instead."

Wende understood the girl's intentions and thoughts, so she could open her mouth and come without any scruples.

"That's right, a group of thieves, liars, and spies make up the church. Everything they do is petty theft. However, thieves have their own way. They are good at fighting behind enemy lines and stealing key treasures. The most powerful operation has been done for hundreds of years. It was to steal the resurrection ring of the vampire lord Vlad, so that the defenders of Altdorf could win."

"You know this as well?"

"Yeah, I even remember the year clearly. In the year 2010 of the Imperial Calendar, Vlad summoned his undead army and opened the prelude to the Vampire War. He broke through Ostermark and killed the White Wolf. The grand masters of the Knights, Middenheim, Nun, and Altdorf all ignited the flames of war between the living and the dead. Because of the resurrection magic power of Vlad's ring, Vlad came back to life again and again. It also made the imperial army who resisted him even more desperate."

"In 2051 Imperial Calendar, Vlad died in Altdorf along with the Great Reciter of Sigmar after his ring disappeared the night before the battle."

"If you think about it with your heels, you will know who stole this resurrection ring, right, the pastor of the Ranolde Church, um...what do you call a beauty?"

The girl jumped down from the table, it seemed that the church was right, the person in front of her did have a very valuable brain.

"In our church, no one has a name. I am just Lord Ranold's lamb, or the shepherd of other helpless lambs. Hold the whip of the Lord and shepherd the lost lambs."

The girl without a name just told Wende her code name. She is called a lamb and a shepherd.

As for the reason for finding Wende, it is naturally very simple.

"Our church wants Karl Franz to win."
