What bad thoughts can a paladin have?

Chapter 117 The Disaster of the Pond

"First of all, I want to thank you for your dedication to Rahal City."

Walking to a quiet corner, Constantine turned around, looked at the paladin who was following behind him, and said these words.

"Without you, when the hidden evil fermented there, it would be a huge threat to the civilians of Lahar City. After all, no one knows what those fanatical cultists will do."

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your praise. This is what we should do."

Wren once again reiterated his position.

He, the paladin, is at odds with evil!
"Okay, let's stop here for our polite words." Constantine said, flipped his palm, took out three exquisite badges, and handed them to Ren. "Young man, on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion of Lahal City, I will award you and your companions [Honorary Citizens of Lahal City] badges to thank you for your contribution to this city."

If you say this, I won't be sleepy.

Renn, who instantly raised his spirits, took the three badges from Constantine and looked at them over and over again.

These three badges wrapped in a faint magical aura are all the same style, with a redbud flower pattern engraved in the center of the front, and the redbud flower is surrounded by sixteen stars, representing the sixteen cities that form the Redbud Business Alliance , and at the bottom is engraved with a line of common language: Honorary Citizen (Lahar City).

Of course, this honorary citizen badge not only represents an honor, but also has a more practical role.

First of all, the owner of this badge can enjoy a [-]% discount on shopping in Lahore City, and a [-]% discount on shopping in the other [-] cities of the Redbud Business Alliance.

This is obviously a very affordable thing for adventurers who have always spent money lavishly.

Not only that, this badge is also a piece of magic equipment.

——"Item Type: Badge of Honor +2 [Enchanted]"

——"Item Level: Rare Magic Equipment"

——"Item description: This is a badge that represents honor. The pattern on it commemorates your outstanding contribution to Lahal City located in the Bauhinia Business Alliance."

——"Equipment Requirements: None"

——"Basic attribute: Provides the wearer with a +2 defense (deflection) bonus."

——"Item Feature 1: Popularity +1 (Bauhinia Business Alliance)"

——"Item characteristic 2: Heal fatal wounds 2 times/day."

It has to be said that this badge of honor is very much to Ren's appetite. It not only provides 1 point of fame, although it is only valid within the territory of the Bauhinia Business Alliance, it is still very useful. The ring spell [Cure Fatal Wounds] is a life-saving tool for adventurers like Ren.

"Thank you, Your Excellency Constantine."

This time, Ren's thanks seemed much more sincere.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. This is just a reward from the city of Lahal for a hero like you. Next, it will be a private reward from me and the city lord's mansion."

Constantine said, winking at Ren.

"You and your companions can go to the secret vault of the City Lord's Mansion and choose a piece of enchanted equipment whose enhancement level does not exceed level three, or an item of equal value, with a total value of no more than 25 platinum coins."

Hearing this, Ren's eyes couldn't help but widen.

On the main material plane, +1+2 equipment is extremely common, and even the leader of an eight-person team can equip a +1 weapon in the Holy Griffin Empire with its treasury full.

However, the number of equipment with +3 and above will drop significantly with the increase of the enhancement level, while the price will be completely reversed.

The price of a normal +3 weapon without additional enchantments can reach an astonishing 18000 Golden Eagle Coins, while a +2 weapon is only a fraction of a +3 weapon!
With a wave of his hand, Lord Constantine gave Ren and the three of them each a piece of +3 enchanted equipment. Converted into Golden Eagle Coins, that is at least 75000 Golden Eagle Coins!

This made Renn have to feel the generosity of this legendary magic swordsman.

I think back when I was a player, when I got my first +3 piece of equipment, my professional level was almost at level 11...

"Don't thank me, this is what you deserve."

With a wave of his hand, Constantine suppressed Ren's words of thanks in his throat.

"Your Excellency, the City Lord, I feel that with the merits of the three of us, we may not be worthy of your reward."

After a few seconds of silence, Ren still raised his doubts.

"No, maybe it's not worthy for others, but it's not necessarily true for you."

The city lord of Lahal City looked at the young man in front of him, and his heart became more and more appreciative.

Received a lot of rewards, but still can not be arrogant or impetuous, and even maintain the rationality in his heart. In this increasingly impetuous society, such young people are rare nowadays.

"Because of the noble area?"

Ren asked tentatively.

"I admire a smart young man like you."

Constantine gave Ryan a thumbs up, without hiding his admiration for him.

"Yes, this time, with the help of the church, I cleaned up a small part of those corrupt nobles, and the power and majesty of the City Lord's Mansion have been strengthened. Compared with those given to you and your companions, the City Lord's Mansion's There will be more benefits. And this is all the opportunity you three gave me."

Constantine said these words leisurely with his hands behind his back.

"This was achieved under your lord's wrist. The three of us just did some small things."

Ren said hurriedly.

"A merit is a merit and a demerit is a demerit. Why do you have the stink of 'modestness' like those people in the Eastern Continent!" Constantine said angrily, "Although you 'accidentally' created an opportunity for me, But I, Constantine, have always been unwilling to owe others, if some things are counted, then these things can be said to be a kind of compensation."

"You mean, over there in the noble district?"

Ren understood instantly, his heart sank, and he asked cautiously.

"Yeah, those guys from the noble district!"

Constantine sighed and said helplessly:

"According to the information I just received, these bastards did not dare to trouble the Lord's Mansion and me, but instead planned to trouble you, the instigator. Don't forget, it was the paladins of the church who carried out the purge, and you, young man , is also a member of the paladins. They have every reason to suspect that you are a pawn arranged by the church, and you have joined hands with me to stage such a good show."

"As for their methods, I am a Legend of Destiny, so I am naturally fearless. But you are just a professional who has just stepped into the middle level. If you are not careful, you will be in danger if you are not careful. And the guard On the team side, it is impossible to protect the three of you 24 hours a day."

"This……"

Hearing what Constantine said, Ren blinked, and an unknown fire rose in his heart.

What is this, picking up soft persimmons in another sense?
It depends on me being a bully, right?

But the cruel reality told him that in the eyes of those nobles, he was the soft persimmon that was easier to pinch.

"Then, Your Excellency the City Lord, do you have any better suggestions?"

Ren looked at the old fox in front of him, and he already had a hunch what this one would say next.

"My suggestion is that you and your companions should leave Lahal City as soon as possible and go to other cities to avoid the limelight. Nobles in Lahal City can't reach out to other cities."

Constantine said in a deep voice.

"If there is any city you want to go to, tell me in advance, and I will send someone to arrange it as soon as possible."

"Is that so?"

Ryan pondered.

After dealing with the matters related to the Black Sandalwood Society, he really didn't have anything to do in Lahore City.

"In that case, please send me and my companions to Silvermoon City, Lord City Master."

Ren didn't forget that there were still a few dragon eggs in the dimensional bag on his waist that he hadn't dealt with yet.

"Silver Moon City? Ahem!"

Constantine froze for a moment, then couldn't help but coughed lightly to cover up the embarrassment on his face.

"Silvermoon City is indeed a good place. The silver dragons there and the dragon people with the blood of silver dragons would welcome a righteous paladin." Touching his nose, the city lord said with a little embarrassment, "But, the young People, what you don't know is that, except for the few free cities around Silvermoon City, Silvermoon City only has air routes with the capitals of the four countries. I can only send you to Sulaymand first, and then you transfer to Take the airship to Silvermoon City."

After thinking about it, Constantine added.

"Of course, I can also issue a letter of introduction for you. For the sake of the letter of introduction, the lady may give me a little favor."

As a legend of Destiny, His Excellency Constantine also has a high reputation.

"In that case, thank you, Lord City Master."

Ryan saluted Constantine.

"I'll ask someone to prepare. If everything goes well, you can set off tonight. I won't send you off when the time comes. I wish you all the best."

About two hours later, the banquet was over, and the three who returned to the Serene Forest Hotel got together again.

"Is that so?"

After listening to Ren's words, Leolina subconsciously twirled the wand in her hand, with a clear look in her eyes.

"It seems that this time the matter is a bit big, even the city lord finds it a bit tricky, and wants to send the three of us out impatiently."

"Leo, what do you mean, we are abandoned pawns?"

Angelica had an angry look on her face when she heard this.

"These big shots don't take us seriously!"

"That's the truth," Leolina spread her hands and said helplessly, "Even my teacher kicked me out of the mage tower, let alone you. It is said that this time the big The cleansing involved several direct bloodlines of the Kent family, which is why it became what it is now."

"The warlock family? No wonder."

Ren suddenly realized.

In the main material plane, many warlock families are very chaotic. Marriage between close relatives is the most common. Some warlock families have secretly carried out many taboo experiments in order to keep their blood pure. These are absolutely not allowed to be seen by outsiders. arrived.

It is estimated that during the purge, the paladins accidentally found some evidence pointing to the direct lineage of the Kent family, so they took the ruthless hand.

And the three of them became the targets of anger and venting.

The Kent family and the nobles joined forces to find trouble for themselves. Even if the City Lord's Mansion and the Mage Tower can withstand this pressure, they will never take the initiative unless it is absolutely necessary.

Because it is not cost-effective, because it is unrealistic.

And this is the naked and bloody reality.
