Chapter 377: Someone Shovels
Chapter 377 – Someone Shovels
The man called Quintus looked like the kind of guy who was good at fighting, and the image made Lister easily think of bandits, hooligans, and the like, but he couldn’t connect him to the church personnel in any way.
Quintus did not hide his malice towards the “provocateur”, his burly body almost covered Lester, and under the provocation of his companions around him, and under the illumination of the candlelight in the lobby, he twisted his terrifying figure to approach Lester step by step.
The abuser let out a hideous laugh, “Come on, little ant, let Master Quintus teach you a good lesson.”
Lister stood dazed and confused. Flee? It seemed impossible to escape from such a close distance.
Just as Quintus reached out and grabbed his clothes fiercely, a loud shout came from the entrance of the lobby: “The guards are here, no one is allowed to move!”
The sound attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, and they unanimously cast their eyes toward the doorway.
Quintus, who had grabbed Lister, also stopped his movements to look at the intruder, his face still looking arrogant.
A group of people wearing long swords and armor clattered into the store, looking well-trained.
Half of the hotel owner’s head peeked out from behind the doorframe of the lobby door, scowling as he glanced inside the lobby; he was probably the one who had brought the guards in.
“I’m getting reports that there’s someone here looking for trouble?”
The one who said this was one of the guard, his armor was a bit more refined and elaborate than the others, with beautiful patterns attached to it, and he looked to be the leader.
“So it’s the brothers of the guard!”
One of Quintus’ associates stepped forward, blocking the man’s path.
He put away the look of a spectator just now and snorted, “Misunderstanding misunderstanding misunderstanding!”
“Misunderstanding?” The captain of the guard issued a question while removing his own helmet, which turned out to be a handsome young man.
His eyes lingered for a moment on the overturned table and the pieces of cups and plates all over the floor.
“This doesn’t look like a misunderstanding to me!”
“I say!” Quintus, who was still holding onto Lister’s shirt, vocalized.
“Gentlemen of the guard, you are performing your duties and we are performing ours, it’s better for both of us to stay out of each other’s way ……”
The accomplice who was blocking the front of the guardsmen gave him a series of winks, which made him shut up, although he still looked like what can you do to me.
The head of the guard said in dissatisfaction, “What duties are you performing? I think it’s clearly a disturbance!”
Lister, who was being controlled like a lamb, seemed to have grabbed a lifesaver, and even his Horned Bay dialect became skillful in his urgency, “This lord has to do justice for us! These bastards are bullying.”
“Did you see that poor woman? She really can’t drink anymore, these scums have to force her to drink, and if she doesn’t drink, they’re torturing her hard.”
“In broad daylight, is this what people do? They should be thrown into a large prison.”
With a bang, the casserole-sized fist pounded on his stomach, and Lister couldn’t speak under the pain, and a sound of dry retching came out of his mouth.
The man who blocked the front of the guard put his arm on the captain’s shoulder and said with a self-satisfied look, “This captain, we are all begging for a living in Nisborough, so it’s better to sell each other a favor.”
The young captain of the guard grabbed the arm on his shoulder and then yanked it aside, causing Quintus’ companion to nearly fall over.
So little face? His brow furrowed.
“Mr. Captain, may I ask your name?” Quintus’ companion asked so unkindly, a serpentine look emerging on his face.
“Quiller! Quiller Foster!”
Hiss! A chorus of astonishment and smacking of lips resounded in the lobby.
It turned out to be someone from the Foster family, and even more so, someone who knew about it exclaimed in a whisper, “It’s the second youngest master of the Marquis Foster family.”
Not to mention how the Foster family as a whole is, but the head of the family, Lord Marquis Foster, is a powerful figure in the Most Peaceful Convocation. ”Shit, we’ve run into a tough opponent.”
This is the thought that instantly arose in the hearts of everyone in the Church Purification Team, it is the young master of the great family that parachuted into the Guard to platinum …….
Just now and Queller set close to the face of a piece of embarrassment color, no wonder look at this young man face, in the Nisborough mixed for so many years, black and white people have seen their own, but are the same class of people with him, today unexpectedly ran into a real power today, damn Nisborough turned out to be so small?
“Haha ……”
Quintus’ accomplice tried to put on a fawning and pleasing smile, but couldn’t control the slightest hint of cold sweat seeping from his forehead.
“Young Master Foster, it was our fault today, we drank a bit too much wine, I apologize on behalf of my brothers, and will lead them to disappear in front of you.”
He waved back, “Brothers, go!”
The congregation of the Church Purification Team took a step, avoiding Quiller Foster’s icy gaze, and were about to head out. Lister was also thrown aside by Quintus, and he stumbled and fell to the ground, gasping for air, a gout of pain still coming from his abdomen where he had received a punch.
Just when everyone thought that was the end of the matter, they saw Quiller Foster wave his hand, “Slow down! Did I tell you guys to leave?”
The Purification Team’s crowd stood still and stopped in their tracks.
It was still the same person who had gotten close to Queller earlier who turned around and asked, “Does Young Master Foster have any more orders?”
Quiller Foster said with a serious face, “Since I’m in the position of guard captain, I can never be sloppy in treating security incidents, you guys ……”
He pointed at Quintus and the others.
“And you ……”
And pointed at Lister and the chaperones.
All of you come with me and get the whole thing straightened out.
The faces of the Purification Team instantly became ugly.
Quintus pushed aside his accomplices and said as if he was going out on a limb, “Young Master Foster, I know that you don’t look down on us little shrimps, but please also think about this – how would Lord Bishop Elvis react if he captured us. Although we are of humble status, we are also servants of the Lord of Light on earth.”
Quiller Foster frowned, “What, do the servants of the Lord of Light not have to abide by the laws of the earth?”
“Lord Marquis and Lord Elvis have always been good friends, I hope you won’t hurt the feelings of the two families with your intent.”
“I think Lord Father will also support me in doing so.”
Quintus’ eyes rolled as he suddenly extended his finger to point fiercely at the chaperone curled up in the corner.
“Young Master Foster, do you remember what I told you at the beginning?”
“What?”
“We are doing our duty!”
“Again?”
“It’s true! That woman is suspected of manipulating witchcraft, and I was just testing her! If it’s confirmed that she’s a witch, we’ll put her to death!”
When Quintus said this, the hall was shocked and became silent again for a moment.
“No!”
The chaperone stood up from the corner with a face full of horror and quickly rushed to Quiller to flop down on her knees.
“I’m not a witch~ I’m not a witch! Young Master Foster, save me, please save me.”
Looking at this tearful girl whose face was covered in despair, Quiller Foster frowned.
