Chapter 292: The future Saint! Farewell!
The path to the west gate of the Holy City of Lordaeron.
The breeze blew the fallen leaves on the roadside, rolling up small tornadoes that rolled on the quiet streets.
Even among the local residents of the holy city who are most familiar with it, few know that there is such a quiet path at the west gate.
What the residents don't know is that the brave team that the entire city had just seen off five days ago will officially set off here today, heading to the [Death Pit] where no one survives.
Mysterious men wearing black hoods were carrying luggage.
If someone saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked.
Because from the faces faintly revealed under these hoods, it can be seen that these people are all well-known human warriors on the continent.
Elliot Lunn, the Mad Dog of the Blaze, Edie Burton, the Midnight Spirit, Trollope Tubber, the Electric Wise, Claire Dale, the Storm Manipulator...
Judging from the strength on paper alone, no one's strength is lower than the ninth level.
There are even three super-powerful people who have been famous for a long time.
Together with five brave warriors, they formed a top team with no more than fifty people.
You know, even without a few brave warriors, it would be too easy for a team of this strength to kill an epic dragon or something.
If you can't hunt the Demon King, you can still kill a few super-level monsters easily.
This shows how much importance the allied countries attach to this hunt of several heroes.
With the addition of a few brave warriors, this team can easily escape even if they go deep into the heart of the demon clan.
Even the most arrogant demon king would find it difficult to keep them.
According to the judgment of countless professionals, as long as the brave team can find the whereabouts of the Undead Lord, the probability of successful hunting is at least 90%.
With such a high winning rate, neither the brave warriors nor the representatives of the allied countries could understand any reason why they could fail.
Therefore, this decapitation operation was confirmed to be a successful operation before it even started.
At this moment, several brave men led by Louis, wearing black hoods, stood by the street.
After packing his luggage, Lunn respectfully walked to the brave man and whispered:
"My dear brave men, all your luggage has been prepared and you can set off at any time."
Sword Warrior Steven responded casually, but had no intention of getting on the carriage.
The same was true for the other brave men. They just looked quietly at the end of the street, as if waiting for something.
Lunn felt a little strange, but he didn't dare to urge him any further.
Steven asked Roy anxiously, "Roy, did you deliver the letter?"
Roy rolled his eyes and said, "It was delivered, okay? I handed it to her personally."
"Then why hasn't Miss Betty arrived yet? Did you write the wrong address?"
Steven said so.
"I'm not you, how could I be so stupid?"
"What did you say?"
“…”
Hearing the conversation between the heroes, Lun became even more confused.
What letter? What Betty?
Isn't this operation top secret?
Even the representatives of the allied countries don’t know the specific departure date of the brave team. Could it be that the brave master has told other people about this?
Thinking of this, Lun couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Before Steven and Roy started fighting, a petite figure ran over from the end of the street.
She looked like a teenage girl, wearing simple cloth clothes.
Lun subconsciously wanted to stop the strange girl from approaching, but Louis stopped him with his eyes.
Steven and Roy's eyes lit up and they stopped fighting.
Looking at the little saint who came back panting, Steven said quickly: "Miss Betty, you are finally here. I thought Roy had written the wrong place."
That’s right, if the person coming is not Uncle Li, who else could it be?
Uncle Li's forehead was covered with tiny beads of sweat, and it was obvious that she had run all the way here.
She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, brave men! Today the bishop randomly checked the recitation of the Bible, and I really couldn't recite it. I skipped class and ran away when the bishop wasn't paying attention."
As she spoke, she stuck out her tongue mischievously.
“Puff!”
Steven laughed and said, "It turns out that Miss Betty doesn't like memorizing texts just like me."
The other heroes also showed warm smiles, and their resentment towards the little saint's lateness completely disappeared.
As a bystander, Lun could also see that several brave men favored this little girl.
It is really unbelievable .
Although Lunn felt that something was wrong, he chose to keep his mouth shut when he saw the happy expressions of the adults.
Even though he is called the "Rabid Dog of Flame" by outsiders, in fact, in front of several brave men, he is no different from an obedient puppy.
Even the weakest sword hero Steven could defeat him easily, not to mention the other stronger heroes.
Louise, who thought of herself as an elder, smiled and said in an elder's tone: "Miss Betty, you still have to pay attention to your studies. I am looking forward to your becoming a true saint in the future."
When Lunn heard this, he was shocked.
Oh my God, this little girl named Betty is a potential saint?
Of course, she was just a little saint in the making, so it wasn't worth him being so surprised.
The most crucial thing is the information revealed by Louis.
Could it be that several brave lords have chosen this little saint and are preparing to support her as the saint of the holy city?
Lunn and other powerful people present naturally heard these words, and they were greatly shocked.
A prospective saint is certainly nothing, but what if she is the future saint?
You have to know that a prospective saint supported by one or two monarchs is not scary, but a prospective saint supported by five brave men is definitely a strong contender for the final position.
This person's status is superior to that of the imperial monarch.
It turned out to be this ordinary-looking little girl in front of me?
No matter how Lunn and other strong men looked at it, they could not see anything special about Uncle Li.
At most, she smiles sweetly and innocently.
What a strange thing!
But no one of them said anything, because they knew that this was not something they could handle.
After the little girl talked with several heroes for a while, Louis finally came back to his senses, looked at the weather and said:
"Well, Miss Betty, it's time for us to go."
Steven suddenly showed a trace of reluctance on his face.
Uncle Li was very tactful and did not try to persuade her to stay. He just took out a small floral box from the small basket in his hand and said shyly:
"Lord Louis, this is the apple pie I prepared for you. I made it myself. I hope it can satisfy your hunger on the road."
Steven chuckled, took the box and said, "I was wondering why it smelled so sweet. It turned out to be the apple pie made by Miss Betty. Mm~~ It's my favorite flavor."
He picked up a piece of apple pie and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hey. You, leave me one piece."
Roy said dissatisfiedly, wanting to grab it.
Uncle Li beside him said quickly: "Don't grab it, brave man. I have prepared a lot, enough for you adults to eat..."
Louis smiled slightly, but suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He subconsciously turned his head , but saw nothing except an empty alley.
