On the Seven Towers

The snowy fields in the early morning have been sprinkled with a layer of gold by the rising sun, and the branches and leaves on the pines and cypresses appear crystal clear in the frost. The sky is very clear, there are not many clouds, it is another sunny winter day.

But in such good weather, a cavalry team shrouded in gloom and mist marched silently on the road. Many of them were bandaged and injured, and their morale was extremely low.

This is a special operations team of the Nature Temple Shadow Group, and the leader is Yepes. His left arm was broken at shoulder level, his face was blue, his appearance was haggard, and he was not at all as high-spirited as when he left the royal capital. Edgar next to him had his entire head wrapped, but there were layers of black air leaking out from between the bandages. Most of the five or six people behind them were injured, and two of them had lost consciousness and were being carried on horseback.

"Sir, if we walk forward for more than an hour, we will have reached the nearest branch of the temple." Edgar's voice became extremely hoarse, like an old saw at work, "The pursuers behind us should have been beaten. Get rid of it, those sneaky false believers don’t dare to do anything so close to the temple.”

"We must speed up. Only by finding Master Artu first and explaining the situation clearly can he save us. Otherwise we will be finished. A silver leaf priest, a master assassin, nearly ten high-level people, more than Fifty mid-level warriors and assassins died in this trap... The Temple of Nature has not encountered such a failure in many years, but it happened to us." Yepes's always decisive face was now full of worry.

Edgar shook his head and said: "Sir, the rats from the Temple of Wisdom are too insidious. They actually used their main temple as bait to ambush us. They also found the remnants of the Temple of War and the Temple of Death. If they hadn't gathered together How could we lose so miserably to all five masters? It's amazing that you were able to kill the new master of the Temple of Wisdom under such unfavorable circumstances."

"However, they only lost one newcomer, and we lost two veteran masters, one of whom was a silver-leaf priest who presided over a temple in a serious manner!"

"grown ups……"

Yepes waved his hand and said, "Stop talking and hurry up."

They didn't go forward for long when the sound of horse hooves came from behind. Yepes asked everyone to hurry up, but the other party caught up with them at an extremely fast speed.

In a hurry, Edgar looked back and exclaimed: "They are not the pursuers of the Temple of Wisdom. They are the people of the Knights of the Wind!"

"Damn it!" Yepes yelled, "Let's go first!"

He and Edgar burst out with little remaining fighting spirit, got off their horses, and rushed into the forest. However, just as he was about to rush into the forest, the trees in front suddenly swelled and connected with each other to form a wall of trees. He still wanted to rush over from the edge, but the people from the Knights of the Wind had already come up to block the paths on both sides.

"Yepez, stop!"

He looked back and saw a person flying in the air, it was Roland.

After a few days, Roland has lost some weight. He is no longer the slightly fatter before, and looks much more capable. The hand that turned the tree into a wall just now was his handiwork.

"Priest Roland, what a huge battle, I thought the enemies of the God of Nature were catching up." Yepes was stopped everywhere he looked. He simply gave up his plan to escape.

"Yepes, you are right, we are indeed pursuing the enemies of the Temple of Nature... and the sinners," Roland said.

Yepes' heart trembled and he said, "Then why are you chasing me?"

"Because the team from the Temple of the Ancient God chasing you has been wiped out by us." Roland motioned to Garrison, the deputy leader of the Knights of the Wind next to him. The latter took out several leather bags hanging from the saddle. A head.

"Is he chasing you?" Roland asked.

Yepes took a look and saw that it was Wu Zhong, the Ten Thousand Captain of the Temple of War who had chased him for two days and two nights and even cut off one of his arms.

"Yes, it seems that I have to thank Mr. Roland for avenging me. Killing a high-ranking figure in the other party is really a great achievement." Yepes said.

Roland said: "This has nothing to do with revenge. He deserves to die. Not only does he deserve to die, but in our plan, the Temple of Wisdom, the Temple of War, and even the rarely seen high-level officials of the Temple of Death will be wiped out in one fell swoop. We have arranged for six masters , and even invited a saint to take action for us, but while we were waiting for help, you messed everything up!"

"What, you actually know that both the Temple of War and the Temple of Death will take action?"

"Of course, that's why we have to spend more time arranging enough manpower. But you actually secretly got half of our plan, and you couldn't wait to take the credit. Not only did your own team get completely damaged, but our plan was also ruined. It was a total failure! By the time we got there, the enemy had completely disappeared."

"I have my own sources and I didn't steal your information!" Yepes shouted.

"Really? Your assistant Edgar and Brusuar were seen when they used charm to obtain information. However, this is not important anymore. What is important is that your greed allowed a Golden Bough Priest to plan Total failure."

Yepes glared at Edgar hatefully, but the latter and the other members of the Shadow Group had already knelt on the ground and gave up any resistance.

"Fortunately, we got the news that there is a big fish among the pursuers. So it's not a completely wasted trip." Roland looked at Yepes with cold eyes, "Now all the foreign enemies that can be eliminated have been eliminated. Naturally, it's time to take you, the sinner, away."

Two knights of the Wind Knights stepped forward and held Yepes.

Yepes struggled, "Roland! Lord Altu is the head of the branch temple in the capital. You have no right to arrest me directly! I have to report to Lord Altu first!"

"You are operating outside and don't know the recent situation. Altu is no longer the head of the capital. I am now the chief priest of the branch temple in the capital."

"What? How is this possible?"

In order to dispel the other party's fantasy, Roland said, "Altu has been in a lot of trouble recently. First, he was involved in Giles's huge corruption case, and then the people of the Shadow Group were ambushed by the people of the Temple of War in the capital, and suffered heavy losses. And Brusuar admitted that he had obtained Altu's instructions to use the charm to obtain intelligence; but the most important thing is that he directly agreed to your blind and crazy action this time."

"This, it can't be so coincidental, this is you..." Yepes saw the other party's indifferent look and stuck the following words in his throat.

"Hmph, don't worry about Altu. Think about yourself first." Saint Alcala wants to see you to see who ruined his good deeds.

Upon hearing this, Yepes collapsed completely, no longer having the strength to fight back.
