Universe Infinite Canteen

Malu followed the male monk into the huge white tower.

Different from the enthusiasm during the last meeting, this time the monk did not speak again and remained silent except for answering two questions from Malu at the beginning.

As soon as they got off their horses, Skylark and Cerberus were taken away from Malu. When he came to the elevator hall, there were two strange witches who were suspected to be escorts waiting for him.

One of them, a witch wearing a red leather coat and little devil horns, was looking at him with interest.

There was also a silver-haired girl with a two-handed sword on her back, a solemn expression on her face.

Malu walked up to the silver-haired girl and found that she looked familiar. He couldn't help but asked curiously, "What is the relationship between Yunque and you?"

"She is my sister." The silver-haired girl spoke concisely.

"Oh, I heard Skylark talk about you. Your name is Northern Starling, and you serve under Knight Tut, right?"

The witch in red leather clothes interrupted the conversation between the two, "Let's go, don't keep Lord Levi and the presiding judges waiting too long. Today will be a long one."

The last half of her words seemed a bit meaningful, but Malu didn't react and walked into the elevator first.

Then the male monk and the two witches also walked in.

The elevator finally stopped at the 27th floor. The male monk led the way, while the two witches each stepped back half a step, one on the left and one on the right following Ma Lu.

This position just makes it clear that this is an escort.

After passing through the circular corridor, the friar finally stopped in front of a numbered iron door.

As the iron door rose, a small room of less than 4 square meters was revealed.

There was no furniture in the room, and the four walls, including the ceiling above the head and the floor under the feet, were all made of steel.

In short, this is a prison cell.

The monk made a gesture of invitation, and then stared at Malu closely.

The two witches behind them also quietly pressed their palms on their weapons to guard against the knight in front of them suddenly going berserk.

However, Malu didn't make any resistance and just walked into the cell.

His idea is very simple. It is impossible to go to jail. Anyway, there is still half an hour, and he can go back when the countdown is over.

Of course, in this case, his identity will be exposed. In addition, being locked up in a cell is equivalent to being stuck with a terrain bug, and it is a vicious bug that cannot be solved by logging in next time. The only choice is to change the map.

Or he can try to escape. Not to mention whether he can escape from the giant tower with the force of the church, even if he is lucky enough to escape from the temple city, without the help of the witch, he will no longer be able to collect ingredients in this plane. .

And this is equivalent to a death sentence for Skylark and others, especially Ouroboros. Her identity is inherently problematic and cannot withstand investigation. Cerberus, Bird of Paradise, and the others are not much better. If they are found out, Their original knight was dead, and they had no choice but to die.

Therefore, Malu decided to follow the church's wishes first and see what Li Wei wanted to do.

In addition, since he was arrested on the spot without getting off his horse, it means that there is still room for maneuver, which is why Malu is willing to cooperate with the investigation.

Again, give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle.

If anything is found out, it's not too late to run away.

The only thing he was worried about now was time. Ma Lu looked at the traveler's bracelet again. There were only 26 minutes left before he would leave this plane.

Malu even regretted that he had been too greedy to kill the volcanic big-leaf tomato. If he had known that this would happen, he would have come back two hours earlier.

No matter what the church wants to do, Ma Lu just hopes they can be more straightforward

Not long after he entered the cell, the iron door behind him closed again, plunging the room into darkness.

Malu stood in the darkness for about five minutes, hearing nothing except his own breathing and the sound of electricity in the armor.

Five minutes later, a small opening opened in the iron wall on his right.

An old and majestic voice came from behind the small mouth, "Do you know why you are here? Knight."

"I heard there was a traitor in the city," Malu said, "I was told to come here to assist in the investigation."

"Great, can you explain this to us?"

An iron tray was pushed out from the small opening, and above the tray was a small, crumpled card.

"This card was found in the trash in your apartment."

"What's written on it?"

"You haven't seen it?"

"That's right."

There was silence on the other side for about half a minute, and then the old voice continued.

"The owner of this card wants you to accept the exploration mission of Nulon Power Plant. She will meet you there."

"Oh, I've never been interested in strange invitations."

"Why don't you report this matter to the church?" Another shrill voice sounded, "Do you want to cover those traitors? Knight."

Malu spread his hands, "I told you, I didn't read the content on the card at all. I just threw it into the trash can after picking it up. I don't know where the card came from."

"Or there is another possibility that your heart has been shaken."

The old voice continued, "You may not have the guts to betray the church and the Holy Knights immediately, but you chose to conceal this matter, which shows that you have been bewitched by the devil."

"Believe me, if I really wanted to be a traitor, I would have been more careful. At least I would have burned or eaten the piece of paper instead of just balling it up into a ball and throwing it in a garbage bag in the living room. You picked it up easily."

After Malu answered, the other side stopped talking.

And this time even the small window was closed.

In another small room separated by a wall, the lights were bright. Levi, the deputy leader of the Holy Knights, and two old men in black robes were sitting at a wooden table.

One of the old men said, "What do you think, Captain Levi?"

"I don't like this guy very much, but his resume is very clean and he is very attentive to his work. Although it is only his third mission, his results have already surpassed many veterans."

Levi said, "I once sent someone to follow him, and his life is very regular. He has never left his apartment except when performing tasks. And he also answered your questions just now."

"Do you also think he hasn't read the words on that card?" The man in black robe with a sharp voice said, "This... is not consistent with common sense at all."

"But it is indeed possible," Levi said a little impatiently, "Besides, with all due respect, our current task is to find the remnants of the Witch Alliance lurking in the Temple City, not to discover unstable factors that may betray the church.

"He did not choose to accept the exploration mission of Nulon Power Plant as required on the card. He is not the person we are looking for. As for the future, if he really betrays us, I will send people to attack him."

Levi said coldly.
