Throne of the North.

Chapter 266 Death and Expulsion

Finally, when the missionaries were traveling through North Wind County, a team was sent from the Earl William's family in the Southern Highlands Province.

The pale-skinned vampires who were transformed from humans are not particularly afraid of sunlight and can still walk around freely when the weather is cool.

They made the corpse come alive, or more precisely, they made the corpse speak.

Through words that no one can understand, people wonder whether these vampires are necromancers or demons from the abyss under their skin.

In short, it was confirmed that the assassin came from the Vatican and the order came from the Pope.

"Find them out and hand them over to the Governor."

Count Winter and Count Sauron gave the order at the first moment. They had an advantage that other nobles did not have, that is, they were cat-man assassins.

At the same time, nobles from several counties in the North Wind Province began searching their respective territories. No matter how stealthy an assassin is, he will leave traces in various ways.

No one knows how many Black Swan Assassins the Holy See has sent to the North Wind Province, but when all the nobles in this province begin to take action, the assassins will not be able to hide completely.

The assassin who was found was not that scary. He was just a more powerful extraordinary person.

Boom! ! !
The iron hooves trampled on the muddy ground, raising dry dust.

Perhaps it was because the heavy rain in Leiyun County brought too much rain, and for more than half a month, not a drop of rain fell in Beifeng Province.

In the dust, the knights hunted down the assassins from the Vatican, and the nobles also endured the counterattacks of these black swans in desperate situations.

"With the arrival of those pioneering lords, there is not much unowned land in the North Wind Province. In this case, the assassins of the Church cannot hide for too long, unless their food falls from the sky."

Any stranger appearing in the territory of a noble would be discovered immediately, so it was difficult for the assassins to obtain food from within the territory.

A few cities may be their only option.

The Borean Province borders the bitterly wintery North, and the nights here are also very cold. They either kill the civilians and live in their houses, or they rest in the city. As for the wild, Ryan knows very well that they do not have that many warm equipment.

These assassins don't look like they can rely on their qi and blood to fight the cold.

“So, the more desperate the situation, the crazier it gets.”

“A lot of people are going to die.”

Just as Ryan thought, the number of black swans was more than imagined. According to some tips he got from Earl Winter, there were already more than a hundred black swans.

These assassins were forced to survive and began to sacrifice their own lives out of their devout faith.

In their continuous assassination, more than thirty pioneers of light were killed, and those lords who came from the north died in the assassination.

The price the Vatican paid was the painful deaths of more than 180 Black Swan assassins.

But... how can an assassin's life be compared with that of a noble? The lords were panicked, and the Marquis of Beifeng was also panicked. The Marquis' panic caused the extraordinary people in the Marquis' territory to take action and completely cut off all the ways of life for the Black Swan Assassin.

So, when the legendary knight left Thundercloud Mountain and began to sweep across the haze of Thundercloud County, forty-three assassins rushed to Thundercloud Mountain.

On this day, the people of the Marquisate once again witnessed a miracle. The sky was split by golden sunlight, shining on the mountain.

Thousands of people knelt on the ground and devoutly called for light, but the face of Marquis Beifeng on Thundercloud Mountain was not sunny at all.

Beside him lay three lords, who had come here again to be sheltered by him because of fear of assassination.

But he still died.

Even the divine power that was nurtured in his body was forced to be activated, and the power that could fight against legends was actually used on a group of assassins.

"How dare they! How dare they try to kill me!!!"

Seeing the furious Marquis Beifeng, some lords began to get nervous. Yes, even Marquis Beifeng was assassinated. They came to Beifeng Province, maybe it was not as safe as their elders said. It was too dangerous.

……

"As an imperial knight, I now declare your crimes."

"You participated in killing the lord of the empire, the noble personally appointed by the Columbus royal family, the pioneer favored by the God of Light, and attempted to assassinate the Marquis of the North Wind of the empire."

"In the name of the Imperial Knights, I will judge and expel you!"

As the legendary knight Mulan finished speaking, the gargoyles behind him flew down from the sky towards the missionaries below.

"escape!"

Adriana shouted loudly while holding the Vatican's relic to her chest. The next moment, the sky was illuminated by the snow-white holy light. The archbishop was bathed in the holy light, sacred and noble. His eyes had changed from human pupils to pure white majestic eyes, and three pairs of illusory wings appeared behind him.

"In the name of the morning light, I declare you guilty of the death penalty!"

Above the sky, white sharp blades fell from the sky and fell towards the gargoyles, but before that, the legendary knight had already arrived on top of the gargoyles.

The majestic energy and legendary power have always been an adjective. The moment he raised his head and swung his fist upwards, all his magic powers dissipated.

"As an Imperial Knight, I will expel you!"

boom! ! !
Knight Mulan arrived in front of the archbishop like an arrow shot from a bow and punched the archbishop in the chest. The sound of broken bones was clearly audible. Even with the blessing and divine magic, Adriana was still no match for the legend.

Blood spurted out, and the archbishop fell toward the north, with the legend chasing him.

She knew that she could not save those devout believers.

"They are all believers of my Lord, and they are entering the Empire with me as messengers!"

She yelled loudly, the six wings behind her disappeared, and her eyes were full of pain and unwillingness.

“But they have no keepsake.”

"Those who threaten the lives of the imperial nobles must die!"

Within the rules, these missionaries can do whatever they want. Since there is evidence of the assassination and it has already happened, it is a war.

Outside of the rules, killing those missionaries is no trouble.

Only Adriana in front of him had a more sensitive identity.

The news brought from the south has already let the Marquis of North Wind know why the Black Swan Assassin appeared in the North Wind Province. It was because on the battlefield in the south, the rising star of the Meyers family killed a future cardinal, and it was possible that he was the Pope, which brought revenge.

The Adriana in front of him was no less important than the person who was killed.

So, she will just be expelled.

The archbishop was running, with divine power bestowed on her. The legend behind her followed from a distance, until the other party disappeared in the north, and then the legendary knight turned around and went back.

"The glory of the morning light will not end in any dark place!"

The missionary yelled while coughing up blood, and then the magic flooded his body, releasing the last magic.

It didn't have much power, but his piety was sensed by the gods and sent back to the Dawn Church.

In the end, he offered no resistance but simply passed the message back to the Vatican.

The assassination drove the Marquis of the North Wind completely crazy, and in the Frozen Territory, Ryan's scalp tingled as he watched Archbishop Adriana, who came to his castle covered in blood.
