People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

If it is resolved smoothly according to the meaning of the Puritans, then they will face two situations.

The first is that the British Puritans protect them and include them in the Puritan sect on the grounds that they have completed the task, so as to prevent them from becoming a target of public criticism.

The second is to put the scapegoat on their heads and let them withdraw directly to get shot in order to divert domestic conflicts.

As far as Britain's own wishes are concerned, it is definitely better to hope that all those who make troubles will die, but if there are uncoordinated voices at that time, it will be a question whether the upper echelons of the UK will compromise to eradicate the Amakusa style, or try their best to maintain the Amakusa style .

Jiangong Zhaizi exchanged glances with the others, and it seemed that everyone had an answer.

"We have no choice, right? If we want to stay with the Pope, then we have only one way to go. Moreover, if we can prove that our value is much higher than those fools, then we will be held accountable You won't be executed, will you?"

Spreading his hands as if giving up thinking, Jian Gongzhai continued casually.

"No matter how bad we are, we can still escape. Anyway, we are just going back to the 'old business'. Besides, don't you, a mercenary, take the blame with us? If there is really a risk of being hated, you will not take it Is this commission?"

"Wrong. The reason why I took this commission is because those idiots can only dare to be angry with me, otherwise they have to worry about their own heads."

Very unreasonable, but there is nothing wrong with thinking about it.

"Also, your worries are unfounded. Your relationship with Kanzaki Kaori is obvious to all, that is to say, compared to threatening Kanzaki 'If you don't do well, we will kill Amakusa Shiki', encouraging Kanzaki' As long as you obey, we will protect the Amakusa style' effect will be much better."

"As expected, it is one of the three major churches, and the methods are quite bad."

There are not many surprises in Jiangong Zhaizi, because this is actually expected, and even Kanzaki Kaori himself has thought of the content.

With the Amakusa style, it is possible to firmly hold the reins of a "sage", so why didn't the Puritans seize it?

However, he is now more curious about Sigurd than his own question.

"By the way, for you, there is absolutely no need to accept this commission, right? After all, with your strength and your status on the magic side, no one should be able to threaten or force you to do anything, right?"

"I only do what I want to do, and that will never change."

Sigurd pointed to the end of the document, which seemed to be the "reason" for Sigurd and Laura to go to Edinburgh this time.

"I see. What is this? Cleaning the door?"

"It's just trampling some vermin to death."

At the end of the document, other than the "three factions", some information about free magicians is recorded.

Among them are a few special magicians who were marked with emphasis marks by the Puritan sect.

Catherine Butt

Gallagher Clarence

Burne-Jones Quincy

......

Behind the names of the above ten people was specially marked the name of a temple that should have disappeared into history.

amen-ra (Amen-ra)

Name of a branch of the Golden Dawn in Edinburgh, Scotland, founded and consecrated in 1893.

The above-mentioned people even established a magic association called "Auroral Lucifer" based on this in Edinburgh.

Chapter 430: Knights? Knights on horseback!

Scotland, as such, is a political entity of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Geographically, it is located in western Europe, north of the British Isles.

On the magical level, the patron saint is St. Andrew.

And if you want to look at the historical level related to the "gold" line, this place is a relatively special existence.

The Golden Dawn's "amen-ra" shrine in Edinburgh was "consecrated" in 1893, and Scottish adepts quickly established their own Second Regiment Vaults.

As far as the two surviving diaries of the "golden" members are currently included in the British Museum, there are only records in the two years of 1893 and 1894. They record more than 24 incidents that occurred in these [-] months. Rituals of initiation and numerous magical invocations are performed.

According to the information collected by Puritan personnel when they hunted and killed Aleister, there were many "little masters (5=6)" and even "big masters (6=5)" who belonged to "gold". "Constructed and consecrated their magic props in the cellars of Edinburgh.

Looking up at Scotland, where everything was completely different from before, Sigurd didn't have too many emotional fluctuations.

Although he is the successor of the "golden" lineage, he is not able to be emotionally attached to any governing buildings related to "golden".

At this time, this is a stronghold of the Puritan sect, and the few people responsible for the handover, such as Jiangong Zhaizi and Wuhe, followed behind Sigurd and kept secretly observing the surrounding situation.

They have now entered the "front line" range in the report issued by the Puritans, which means that it is not surprising that they are hit by the opponent's covering firepower in this block.

They don't have the strength of Sigurd, nor are they "sages" like Kanzaki Kaori.

As the "weak" members of the Amakusa style, they keep in mind their own "traits" and will never forget this.

Following Sigurd into the bar, this is an underground bar where people who are not living well can vent freely, and it is natural that it is impossible to expect how realistic the environment can be.

The smell of low-quality alcohol made Wuhe wrinkle his nose, because there are no drinkers among the Amakusa-style magicians, so this is almost the first time Wuhe has come into contact with the smell of alcohol.

She felt a little uncomfortable, but she still followed behind Jian Gongzhai.

"Wuhe, Urakami. Go to the gate and be on guard. We have already entered the territory of those bastards. I don't want people to block the way out when I hand over the information."

"Eh? Yes, we will guard the door!"

Itsuwa, who didn't react for a while, didn't understand what Sigurd said until Urakami pushed her with his elbow.

The two female members stayed at the relatively ventilated door, while Jiangong Zhaizi, Niu Shen and others continued to follow Sigurd into the underground tavern filled with the pungent smell of low-quality alcohol.

"I didn't expect you to be considerate of girls unexpectedly?"

He didn't reply to Jiangong Zhaizi's conversation, because Sigurd himself didn't like the smell of this damn alcohol, so he wasn't too happy to speak in such a ghostly place.

Jiangong Zhaizi also seemed to read displeasure from Sigurd's expression. In fact, his distaste for such a harsh environment was not the same.

However, because this is the junction of the Puritan sect, he also tried his best to restrain himself from making annoying behaviors. After all, he might cooperate with the magician here after joining the Puritan sect.

It is also one of Amakusa's habits to attach great importance to the formation of a relationship network.

"But I remember that Scotch whiskey is quite famous. I thought the taste of this kind of inferior alcohol wouldn't appear in Scotland?"

"Is it important not to be inferior? It's better to say that for stupid things that come to such a ghost place to buy drunk, they will care what they drink? Don't be stupid, they just want to 'numb' themselves."

A rather impatient voice came from behind the bar in the back of the bar.

It was a strong man with a big belly and beards.

From the perspective of behavior, compared with "the handover personnel of the Puritan sect", the first impression of Jian Gong Zhaizi is anyway "a sloppy uncle who came to get drunk".

The man seemed to recognize Sigurd, so he didn't continue to speak in the aggressive tone just now.

Although he still glanced unkindly at Jiangong Zhaizi and the others.

He's a longtime resident of the city and hates the negative "this city is out of date" or "what's this city" kind of stereotype.

"I didn't expect the royal family to send you, a monster, to Scotland?"

"If possible, I really don't want to come. But you should know the immediate reason for my coming here."

Of course the strong man knew that, as one of the intelligence agents arranged by the Puritans in Scotland, his "net" was enough to cover the whole of Edinburgh.

He knows a thing or two about what is happening in Edinburgh now, whether it is on the bright side or under the undercurrent.

Although the two parties came to exchange information, it seemed that the strong man had no intention of going straight to the point.

He simply and rudely drained the beer in front of him, and then filled another glass from the big wooden barrel beside him.

Glancing at Sigurd, Jiangong Zhaizi and others, he took out a large oak beer glass from behind the bar, and then poured a large amount of whiskey into it.

"Let's have a drink and talk."

He took the big glass of whiskey slowly without hesitation. Although Jian Gong Zhaizi didn't know what whiskey was considered good, he could tell from the aroma that it was completely different from the inferior wine in the air. good stuff.

(I didn't expect this mercenary to drink so well. I'm afraid I'll be fucked if I drink with Niu Shen with such a big drink?)

Before Jiangong Zhaizi could finish his admiration, the quilt had already been delivered to him by Sigurd.

"?"

"Didn't you hear what he said? Have a drink first, otherwise, with this guy's character, he wouldn't spit out the information quickly."

"Eh!?"

"Hey what, this is your assessment, shouldn't you be doing it to obtain information?"

Jiangong Saizi, Niu Shen and the others looked at each other, seeing that the alcohol in front of them was far higher than the sake they usually drank in secret during pastimes.

After hesitating again and again, under the gaze of the strong man, Jian Gong Saiji, Ushibuka and Nomozaki shared the whiskey and drank it all.

"These guys are Japanese, right? When did the Puritans start working with those 'dollmakers'?"

"It's complicated, I don't want to talk about it."

"Sure enough, it's still the same, forget it...ha!!!"

He drank all the wine in the oak beer glass in his hand in one breath, and let out a refreshing "ha".

"So, what is your identity in this place this time? Are you the successor of the 'Golden' lineage, visiting the old place of the 'Golden Dawn' temple, or as an 'Honorary Knight' to solve the troubles encountered by the United Kingdom thing, or..."

The "cracking" beer filled the beer mug in the strong man's hand again, and the foam from the previous beer was still hanging on his beard.

"Is it as a mercenary of the 'strongest gold' to carry out some shady assassination commissions?"

"Maybe both, maybe neither."

"What's this... Can't you come here and make it clear? I'm an idiot. I don't have the scheming of you cunning guys."

Drinking beer is like drinking water, but Jiangong Zhaizi and the others, who are dizzy from whiskey, are trying to stabilize their footsteps. Although they are supporting each other, their feet are still very vain.

"This is not something you need to inquire about. Hand over the information, we'll get it and leave, and then you continue to drink here."

"That's right, anyway, I'm just an information dealer, and I have long missed the chance to fight and kill."

"That's not what a 'knight' should say, is it? Your 'arms' hanging in Buckingham Palace will cry."

"Oh, knights? Knights who go to ride horses! Even the princesses of the kingdom are captured by the enemy and can only look at each other across the sea. They are indecisive and let the huge union rot. Those worms are clearly in front of them but they turn a blind eye. I have to go along with those other than A stupid dog who can't even put on airs? This kind of United Kingdom should die quickly, I am not so stupid as to work for this kind of stupid royal family!"

"Deputy, Acting Pope?"

"I said, why do you drink like this? Didn't you go to hand over the information?"
