People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

She was the wife of a certain Marquis, but the Marquis himself seemed to dislike crowded and noisy occasions like banquets.

Sigurd also knew the Marquis, and Sigurd was sure that the Marquis was definitely a clean and honest nobleman.

But the husband's incorruptibility does not seem to be conveyed to his wife.

"Of course, Mrs. Moulton. At last year's Christmas dinner, if it wasn't for Mrs. Moulton, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to escape the clutches of Carissa. To be honest, I'm not used to being in the presence of so many people. Dancing is really a bit difficult to adapt to."

"Where's the matter, Her Highness Kailisa seems to be a little displeased because of my rash conversation at that time. But it is not incomprehensible, after all, for Her Highness Kailisa, I am afraid that she has never been able to be with Chigurh since she was a child. Lude-kun, are you an excellent man on par with you? If it were me, I would never let go of such a good opportunity as the Christmas dinner~"

"Just kidding, beauties like Mrs. Moulton and Carissa are excellent women who are very popular with men. I heard that many nobles are quite envious of the Marquis of Moulton for marrying you. Such a beauty."

"Hehe, Mr. Sigurd has such a sweet mouth. No wonder even the First Princess Melia, who is a bit too cautious, is willing to give you almost the same trust as the leader of the Knights. And Miss Sylvia has always been determined. Follow you."

Sigurd, who smiled back, was gradually surrounded by more and more aristocratic women under the guidance of Mrs. Moulton. They were all family members of nobles with considerable status. Although the purpose of contacting Sigurd was different in details. There are differences, but in the final analysis, I still hope to shorten the relationship between Sigurd and my family.

On the other side, the mercenaries dealing with those noble women confirmed the group of people gathered in the corner from the corner of their eyes.

Including Holegres Millets and Faulkner Angelo, the rest of them also have golden family crests on their chests, and several of them get Faulkner in unison.

A group of people chatted and chatted, and occasionally turned to the direction of Sigurd who was being entangled and chatting with other noble women.

But they didn't notice that the mercenaries they regarded as "targets" had been watching their every move.

(As planned, but much easier than originally planned...)

Chapter 430: University of Edinburgh and the former "gold"

A group of dark-haired abnormal people were active in the streets in the middle of the night.

Although it is an anomaly in this western country to see a large number of black-haired people, their movement on the street somehow gives Edinburgh residents passing by the idea that "they are just tourists from the East".

Speaking of which, although there is no uniformity in their clothes, they have the same "general public" expressions attached to their bodies under the complicated attire, which will not attract the attention of others at all.

They are members of the "Amakusa Style Cross Sad Church", and the purpose of this trip is also to successfully enter the assessment of the "Church of Necessary Evil".

"Acting Pope, we have sneaked into the crowd and are moving towards the University of Edinburgh. It is estimated that we will arrive at the target point in 10 minutes."

Itsuwa and Urakami did not show any abnormalities, and even the two of them dyed their hair golden with a special dye to further confuse ordinary people's perception of themselves.

For Amakusa-style magicians, they are more inclined to work on clothing and hair color than changing their appearance. After all, this is easier to do, and it is also easier to confuse the detection of a wide range of enemies .

The reason for not choosing to use magic means is that the University of Edinburgh, where Wuhe and Urakami went, is a "node" of the Scottish Puritan sect.

Among them, the interior of the University of Edinburgh library was used as a stronghold by Puritan magicians.

Among them, the number of spiritual equipment and magic books searched is also quite large, so this area is particularly intensive for magic detection. If you use magic to eliminate your own existence, it will be self-defeating.

The speaking Wuhe and Urakami looked like sisters who sneaked out to go shopping without telling their parents. The two did not carry communication equipment, but they could "hear" the words of Jian Gong Sai, who is the Amakusa-style acting pope, in their minds. speaking voice.

In effect, it's like wearing an invisible pair of headphones.

[The task itself is very simple, but considering the special situation in Scotland, we have to be careful. 】

The room where Jiangong Zhaizi is located is very remote. In highland areas like Scotland, there are often some abandoned cabins mixed in on the barren mountainside.

It seems that it is not inhabited by people, but preserved as a landscape.

Obviously no one would come here at ordinary times, but the place where Jiangongzhai is located is brightly lit by fluorescent lamps.

Jiangong Zhaizi leaned against the dusty wall, trying his best to ensure that the light would not expose his shadow.

Because the light switch here is not inside, and if the wooden house as a landscape suddenly goes out, it may attract the guards to check.

However, even though he said this, Jian Gongzhaizi still subconsciously felt heartache for such a waste of electricity.

Compared with the shabby Amakusa style, national sects like Puritanism in England are really rich and powerful.

From the perspective of the Amakusa-style magical association that pursues secret operations, such a big fanfare and meaningless waste of electricity is no different from suicide.

"Niu Shen, Incense Burning, Gui Zhi, how is the situation over there?"

[We are already in place.The Rosslyn Chapel (Rosslyn Chapel) has indeed gathered members of the "Knights". It seems that the information of any "Knights" is correct. The "Knights" indeed intend to use this place as a position to guard the "treasure". 】

Niu Shen's voice appeared in Jiangong Zhaizi's mind, and he seemed to have discovered something from the tone.

[Moreover, it seems that there are "Puritan" magicians mixed in. Although they also wear armor and even patrol with the team, some habits cannot be changed. 】

Amakusa Shiki itself is a magician who is extremely good at disguising, and they also have skills far beyond ordinary people in recognizing "enemies" who pretend to be ordinary people.

[However, even if they want to guard here, why do those "Puritanist" magicians pretend to be members of the Knights?Is it really necessary? 】

"You stay where you are, and now we have too little information at hand."

[Understood, but what's going on with that mercenary?There has been no news for more than an hour. Shouldn't you be surrounded by noble girls at the banquet and fall into the tender land and cannot extricate yourself?Damn it, the more I think about it, the more I envy it! 】

Jian Gongzhai didn't say anything about his companion's unserious speech.

In this case, proper venting can better complete the task.

Moreover, Niu Shen's doubts were not unreasonable.

Sigurd had been going to the banquet for too long, and Jian Gong Zhaizi was also very concerned about what the mercenary was planning.

(Considering what the Pope said, with the personality of this mercenary, he shouldn't do meaningless things.)

Although I think so, in fact, Jiangong Zhaizi really can't see the meaning of participating in this banquet held by the decadent and depraved nobles of the Scottish family, who use the name of "nobility" to drink together with demons .

【Acting Pope, the "Knights" have made a move. 】

"Nomozaki, over there..."

Before Kenmiya Saiji confirmed the situation of the young man named Nomozaki, a loud explosion came from not far away.

[Acting Pope!It was the explosion from "St. Giles' cathedral". The members of the "Puritans" at the University of Edinburgh were alarmed. Shall we follow? 】

"No, Itsuwa. You and Urakami continue to stare at the University of Edinburgh."

Wuhe, who was hidden in the canopy outside the University of Edinburgh, was a little puzzled.

On the other side, Urakami stretched out his hands, with extremely thin silk threads wrapped around his ten fingers.

Like a spider queen who lays a spider web and waits for her prey to throw herself into the net, Urakami, who indifferently felt the trembling of the thin thread of her fingers, said softly.

"Wuhe, someone is hiding 800 meters away from us at eight o'clock. The number of people is between thirteen and sixteen. They are magicians from the Christian department..."

[Although it was just a suspicion, I didn't expect the other party to be really crazy to this extent...]

"Acting Pope, did you already know that someone would create a commotion and transfer the 'Puritanist' magician from the University of Edinburgh, and then sneak into it?"

[This is just one of the reasons.Your purpose was originally to stare at the "Clock Tower" inside the University of Edinburgh to prevent us from being disturbed by the "Clock Tower Chorus" technique of the "Puritanists" during our operations. 】

Wuhe looked in the direction indicated by Urakami, and from her perspective, she could already see one of them very clearly.

This does not refer to "seeing" in the magical sense, but "obvious" in the physical sense.

The aristocratic young man who was dressed so luxuriously that he felt like a cosplay suit walked in the front, because his eye-catching made the hidden magicians behind him even more invisible.

[Wuhe, you should still remember who was among the magicians who made trouble in Scotland this time, and the reason why the mercenary would carry it out on their behalf, right? 】

"Auroral lucifer?"

[If you combine "Golden Department" and "University of Edinburgh" at the same time, what can you think of? 】

Wuhe was taken aback, because she didn't know much about the famous people in the University of Edinburgh.

Wuhe only knew that several British prime ministers and winners of various super heavyweight awards also came from here, but she didn't know anything about the "golden series".

Because the opponent had already entered the range visible to the naked eye, Urakami also temporarily withdrew the silk thread in his hand while being noticed by the opponent.

Relying on a special communication technique, Urakami's voice intervened in the conversation between Jiangong Saiji and Wuhe.

"It's Arthur Conan Doyle, right? Which writer once belonged to 'Golden Dawn', although he quit later, but is still deeply influenced by it?"

[In addition to this, there is actually another one who was also a member of the "Golden Dawn".Although she grew up in the United States, she returned to live in the UK in the end. 】

"?"

This information also seemed to be beyond Urakami's cognition, and Wuhe was still completely confused about the situation, because she didn't know much about the information.

If it's the most famous members of "Golden Dawn", Wuhe would know about it, but members of "Golden Dawn" are all over the world, across five lakes, and there are actually quite a few unknown ones.

[It is one of the most widely circulated Tarots, "Waite Tarot" drawn together with Arthur Edward Waite...]

"Mrs. Pamela Coleman Smith, is it..."

Chapter 430 Six: "5=6" magician?

Unlike many universities that were established with the permission of the Holy See (papal charter) in the early years, the University of Edinburgh started preparations in 1582 with the permission (royal charter) of King James VI of Scotland and the funding of the Edinburgh City Council (town council).

The university was officially established the following year. As the first civic university after the European Reformation, it is the fourth university in Scotland and the sixth university in the entire English-speaking world.

In the history of more than 400 years, countless celebrities have appeared in this school, basically covering various fields.

The University of Edinburgh has many truly great men and professors who are engaged in various knowledge researches, but in the University of Edinburgh tonight, the characters appearing are "running counter to" the existence of the scientific world.

A team of more than ten people stepped into the gate of the University of Edinburgh without any cover.

No one stopped them, and the left-behind "Puritan" magicians continued to do their own things as if they hadn't seen them.

The leader was a well-proportioned blond man with a pure white scarf around his neck.

Among the obviously well-manicured blond hair, there are some highlighted red hair. If you look at it in a general sense, you might think that this is some kind of change made by the other party for the operation.

But from Wuhe and Urakami's point of view, this kind of behavior is just to highlight their individuality, or simply because the other party thinks it is so handsome, although from the perspective of Wuhe and Urakami, such a dress and " The word "handsome" doesn't match.

He was clearly here to do something shameful, but he was wearing gorgeous clothes that were recognizable as ancient Western nobles or royal families at a glance.

The exaggerated lion embossing treatment on the golden armor makes people feel exaggerated, and it does not have the kingly posture that this kind of creature itself should have.

The dazzling golden color made this "King of Beasts" look a little dazed.

A bright red cloak was dragging behind him, but it was different from the spiritual cloak of the "Knight Sect". It was simply a general luxury prepared to match his armor.

Even in the connection between the cloak and the armor, there is a great interference with the movement of the wearer's own arms.

At his waist is a one-handed sword used by knights, but just from the flamboyant scabbard full of precious stones, it is even inlaid with multiple red agates on the hilt, and the huge ruby ​​at the end of the sword is inlaid The end of the hilt.

You don't even need to pull out Wuhe to guess that this one-handed sword is simply a "decorative sword". If you want to say that it has any actual combat ability, then Wuhe is definitely skeptical.

Even if it was a spiritual outfit, Wuhe couldn't see any unity and religious significance in all the decorations on it, no matter in terms of layout, type or color, and even lacked coordination in terms of pure aesthetics.

To put it simply, the shape of the opponent's body is meaningless to the magic level at all, it is purely to show off his unique luxury.

"Just like the consistent style of the Church of Necessary Evil, it is impossible for the same monotonous trap to appear here..."
