The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

"So, you can now attach to me, Chris, and Yabu Bache?"

"Do not."

Bridget shook her head,

"As I said before, some people can't be attached to. The specific reasons are mostly related to the blessings of the gods, but not entirely. In short, I can feel that trying to establish a connection with some people Sometimes, there will be a particularly ominous premonition. Miss Chris and the Earl are in this situation."

Riber let out an "oh" in his heart.

He didn't mention it, and Chris, who was blessed by the gods of the Church of Everything and the Adventurer's Guild, was obviously difficult to break through.

Speaking of...

Should he find a chance to correct the title of "Miss Chris"?

"As for Ms. Yabu Bache. That...Because being attached is not a very pleasant experience. When some people are attached to control, they will lose consciousness, and then there will be memory confusion and other conditions. Others are attached to control They will not lose consciousness when they are awake. Therefore, they will feel that they are clearly awake, but their bodies are completely disobedient and acting on their own. Just imagine and you can imagine, it is a very frightening and hopeless feeling."

Brigitte said, raised a thumbs up,

"So, I will never cling to control beautiful girls and bring them bad memories!"

"..."

The corner of Riber's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

It can only be said that fortunately the person with the cheating power of attachment and manipulation is Bridget...

"Then among the group of people who set off with the head of the Knights, how many people can you control?"

Facing Riber's question, Brigitte closed her eyes as if feeling it, and then replied,

"Most are fine."

In Ribel's dumb expression, Brigitte added,

"So, the knights in this city are really lax in defense."

...

...

South District of Greenwater City.

The knights headed by Erhard are searching a two-story mansion.

After almost turning the mansion upside down, Erhard judged that the mansion had no mechanism such as secret passages, and there was no place to hide people.

"It seems that we can only continue to the next one. Damn it, which mansion is this already?"

"The...fourth room."

The deputy head of the Greenwater Knights, who has recently become the secretary of the temporary head, replied cautiously.

"So, Hannah White bought so many properties for his family with a pitiful salary, you haven't found out yet, have you?"

Erhard was really furious.

They searched Hannah White's home and detained his family before they learned that this elite member of the Knights, who used to be like a model, had secretly taken money from unknown sources in the past few years. A total of seven properties were purchased in the names of various family members.Moreover, in addition to his family, the Knights also asked from his family that he had at least four lovers and six mistresses.And the homes of these women may also become Halla's hiding place.

In the past two years, Erhard was basically unable to stay in the Knights headquarters in the city for a long time due to official duties.Therefore, most of the internal affairs are handled by the deputy head.

Then, on this day, the deputy head obviously brought Erhard a surprise, and handed in an answer sheet that made her very "satisfied".

Just when Erhard was thinking about when to send the deputy head for a thorough review, the deputy head suddenly started a series of strange actions.

The deputy head first straightened his slightly curved back, then stretched his arms vigorously and did a lazy waist, then made a few gymnastic moves, and jumped twice on the spot.

Not only that, the face of the deputy head who was wrinkled because of the tension, panic, and fear before suddenly stretched out, and his eyes were wide and round, showing that his face suddenly became a little more energetic and energetic.

Just when Erhard frowned and stared at the eccentric deputy head, the deputy head suddenly turned to look at her and said,

"You have a beautiful side face that is not inferior to that of 'Kingdom Orb', Captain!"

"..."

Facing the deputy head's sudden molestation, Erhard was stunned for a moment, but he was really not angry at all.

It's not because of the deputy head's sweet mouth, Erhard also likes to be praised.Rather, the deputy head, who had always been like that on weekdays, suddenly burst out with such courage, which made Erhard start to worry, whether the deputy head was really under too much pressure recently, and simply went crazy.

Just when Erhard hesitated to speak for several times, thinking about whether to give the deputy head a few days off, the other party spoke again.

"Hey~ If it weren't for the Earl, I haven't thought of my ability, and I can still use it like this."

The deputy head smiled.

"Please allow me to introduce myself. I am a 'messenger' who can instantly transmit information to the Earl of Campret, and can also transmit his words to this side."

Volume Two: Chapter 120 Nine, Lightless Night

The "Lord Earl's Messenger" conveyed the news of the death of "Night Stalker", the coming of "Foggy Night" and the news that Hannah White would cause the plague to break out to Erhard, Chris and others.

At the same time, the messenger also passed on the results of the Knights' search for Hannah White to Riber.

Generally speaking, although the Knights spread throughout the city and searched for Hannah White in a wide area, the results can be described as fruitless.

The only one that has gained a bit is the side led by Chris.

After interrogating Halla White's family, he told Ribel,

"They are not in any of the five stages of grief. Therefore, it is basically certain that during this period of suspended animation, Hannah has returned to his various residences. It is also a step closer to prove that Hannah is indeed the Knights traitor."

The way Chris came to his conclusions, Ribel thinks, is still open to question.Moreover, I also think that even now, obtaining such information will not help the status quo.

However, for people other than Riber, it can be confirmed that Hannah White is indeed a betrayer, and it can be regarded as a booster.

After all, even now the entire knight order is moving.However, the members of the Knights, including Erhard, were somewhat skeptical about the fact that Hannah White was a traitor.

Compared with Riber's inference, Riber's identity and his "practical performance" in the past are the main reasons for persuading the Knights to act.

And in case the Earl is mistaken, what the Knights are doing is to continue to harass his family and desecrate his undead after the sacrifice of their companions.

But now, those doubts have largely faded.

Time passed by every minute and every second.

From the point of view of the Knights, the earl's discovery of the traitor Hannah this time means that he has proved himself to be always right again.In other words, the subsequent "prophecy" will also come true.

It can be said that they are trying their best to search for the traces of Hannah White.

However, a traitor who was bold enough to escape by feigning death and cautious enough to prepare a dozen strongholds to confuse the search could not be easily found.

In a blink of an eye, it was almost dusk.

Another mansion that Hannah bought was searched, and Erhard, the head of the Knights who was still fruitless, kicked a wooden door angrily, then took a deep breath and looked not far away, facing A female knight whistled and attached to the "messenger" on the deputy head.

"Please inform His Excellency Caprete, and prepare to implement his plan."

...

...

On the roof of the tallest building in the southern city, Riber, with a stern face, listened to the information from Bridget from all directions.

Can't you catch it?

Riber sighed, and then looked at the vast Nancheng District.

It seems that he can only use the last resort.

It sounds like the term "last resort" seems to be quite stylish.But in fact, the core of Riber's plan couldn't be simpler.

The source of the plan was the reminder from Bridget.

Seeing that Ribel was at a loss for what happened to Hannah, Bridget showed a very puzzled expression.

She said, "It's enough for the Earl to use the 'Eye of Delusion'?"

Although Riber still wants to complain about the secondary ability that the so-called "God of Truth" will bestow on believers.However, Riber did have inspiration for Bridget's words.

The reason why Bridget had such a misunderstanding was that when he came to look for Ewenna with Chris and Lysa, Riber once showed that he could distinguish the Evanna's ability after disguise.

Lysa was shocked after seeing this scene, and quickly sent a letter to Bridget.

Not to mention that under the circumstances at that time, Lysa was able to find time to send the letter, and Lysa, who was going to write a letter to Bridget in a few hours, was really dependent on her eldest sister.

In short, Riber believes that such a situation is really worth trying.

First of all, according to the experience of the previous two times, the foggy night does not come at the moment of nightfall, but when it is close to night.And the night before the foggy night falls is very suitable for carrying out this plan.

Secondly, Riber felt that this Hannah White was a traitor of the Knights, and escaped by feigning death, and killed his companions to cause two foggy nights, and spread and caused pests, which really brought a huge blow to the entire city What.Moreover, in the original plot, he confronted the actor Chris.So, no matter how you look at it, in the sad witch line, it is also a BOSS.In other words, he is very likely to exude the light of an important supporting role.

Therefore, these reasons are the reasons why Riber implemented the plan.

Of course, there are many uncontrollable factors in this plan.

For example, Hannah White must be in the South City, and must take the initiative to go to the open air before the foggy night falls.For example, there won't happen to be another person who can shine in Nancheng District.For another example, the sky must be dark enough so that the light of the supporting role, which is far from being comparable to the light of the protagonist, can also become a bright enough firefly in the dark night.

Even, whether Halla shines or not is just Riber's wishful thinking.

Therefore, this is also the reason why Riber has always named his plan "Lightless Night" as a last resort when he has nowhere to go.

And now...

They did come to occasions when they needed urgent medical treatment.

...

...

Night falls.

The Greenwater City Knights, including the city defense team, were dispatched and gathered in the southern city.

In addition, the Inquisition Society from the Church of All Things, adventurers from the Adventurers Guild, and some Guardians of the Holy Light from the Church of Light also appeared in Nancheng District.

If according to the speculation of Riber and others, the plague will spread in a large area in Greenwater City, the consequences will naturally be unimaginable.

Therefore, Erhard mobilized all the power she could mobilize and summoned all the personnel she could call, including some servants of noble families.

A total of more than [-] people gathered in Nancheng District, just to catch Hannah White alone.

"I always feel that cooperating with Lord Caprete will make me more and more like a gambler."

According to the proposal, after dispersing 800 people to various places in the southern city, Erhard sighed and said to Chris beside him.

This "dark night" battle is really a big gamble.

If the bet wins, the Knights can capture Halla White.And if you lose, you will lose everything in the true sense.

At that time, facing the plague patients in a city, Erhard could already imagine the scene of those newspapers spraying "the knights stupidly spent their manpower in useless places, leading to tragedies".

In retrospect, this has been the case since my encounter with Riber.

For example, at the beginning, the matter of directly capturing all the troublemakers, or the matter of forming a crusade team to go to the underground waterway to round up the "Night Demons".These events are accompanied by great risks.

"Captain Erhard, you can win every time, but it can't be called a 'gamble'."

Chris said with a relaxed smile.

Even though he himself may have been infected with the plague, but now that almost everyone is nervous, he still doesn't seem to feel the slightest pressure at all.

"I'm not questioning His Excellency Camprete, but he himself has said that he is not fully sure whether this operation can be successful."

Erhard was a little worried.

"It's normal to not be fully sure. Rather, there is no 'absolute' in anything in the world. For example, the street across the street is less than ten steps away from me, and I seem to be absolutely sure. I walked over safely. However, in the process of walking, I may suddenly fall down and die suddenly, or be hit by a speeding carriage that suddenly broke out, or be buried in the ground due to an earthquake..."

In Erhard's expression of "Can your analogy be more wonderful?", Chris continued,

"There are so many uncertain factors in just walking a few steps, so there are so many people involved, which will lead to countless changes in the 'Lightless Night' plan, and there is no absolute smoothness. Rather, those who will I don't trust people who say things like 'absolutely no problem'."

Erhard looked at Chris speechlessly.

Anyway, what "Mr. Riber" does is correct, right?

However, the calmness shown by Chris and the absolute trust in Riber really made Erhard feel much more at ease.

...

...

Night sky.

A steed of heavenly horse was suspended in the sky, and the person on the horse looked down at the entire Nancheng District with tense nerves, not daring to relax for a moment.

Riber did not expect at all that the scale and cost of the "Lightless Night" operation far exceeded his expectations.
