The arbitral knight group were the subordinates of the Faith of the Sun. They first arrived in the Tiridan Kingdom.

Then, after checking the rat men relics, they followed Jonathan and the others all the way to Danello City in the Engido Kingdom. The Engido Kingdom was restored more than a hundred years ago by the family of the Queen of Holy Seville Empire. Now, the holy temple of the Faith of the Sun was located in Primonius, which was the capital of the Engido Kingdom.

Investigations in Danello were intensifying and had impacted its commercial development. Knights of the Faith of the Sun were stopping all of the suspicious people in the city, especially humans.

But, in this city with a population of 100,000, because of trade, there were tens of thousands of resident human beings, many of whom weren"t officially registered in the city"s books.

This was partly why Jonathan had chosen to hide here. For a while, there would be no danger of his being exposed. But over time, that risk would increase.

Hundreds of knights arrived outside the city of Danello. After showing their doc.u.ments to the guards, they entered the city. All of the pa.s.sers-by, upon seeing the insignia on the knights" cloaks, immediately stepped back to give way.

“Dear Barry, head of the arbitral knights, thank you for coming. Everything is ready!” The governor of Danello rushed out of the governor"s house to welcome the arbitral knights. Long before, he had received news that an evil blasphemer might be hiding in the orc kingdom with some world-shaking secret.

The governor immediately set up a trap to catch the guy, but the blasphemer was very alert and saw through his plan. The governor had to block the harbor and the city, then check all of the human beings in the city. But, as the blasphemer was a cunning alchemist, he had thus far successfully evaded them.

The position of head of the arbitral knights was similar to the Chief Justice of the Church of Light. He enjoyed a very high rank in the Faith of the Sun. Even in the orc kingdom, he was a frightening figure.

Now, he had come to Danello personally, even leading hundreds of Holy Knights who joined him. Still yet, the governor had not completed the task. This made the governor nervous.

“Have you caught anyone yet?” Barry asked.

Barry was a mixed-race orc, who had tiger"s blood running through his veins. His armor and Holy Knight Sword looked majestic.

His red cloak fluttered in the wind. When he looked at the governor, though he showed no expression, the governor felt tremendous pressure.

“Not yet! The governor was even more nervous now. This fellow in front of him could identify anyone as a blasphemer, without even going through the legal procedures!

The governor then continued. “Nevertheless, he is still in the city. I know this because I have blocked all the ways to go to sea. People have been allowed to enter, but not to leave. Thus, they could not have escaped. We are searching for them all over the city, and we will have results for you soon!”

The governor then sat down, hoping that Barry wouldn"t be angry with him. Barry frowned, “Let the bloodhounds loose!”

Since the emergence of magical beasts, wizards had not only studied the power of these magical beasts, but had also constantly bred and domesticated them in various ways. There was even a large number of new variants of magical beasts, which were also bred by wizards.

Of course, the churches would not turn a blind eye to this situation. Within the churches, as well as resisting and eliminating these wild magical beasts, they began to use their powers.

As such, the bloodhound was bred by the Faith of the Sun. It was the result of multiple hybridizations of three h.e.l.lhounds. It did not inherit the superb power of h.e.l.lhounds, but its character was not as evil as h.e.l.lhounds.

The bloodhound had a keen sense of smell, especially when they were tracking blood. Even if it was hundreds of miles away, it could track the source immediately.

Also, the bloodhounds" fur was resistant to extraordinary power forces. This species was a fierce hound, like a leopard, with bright black fur and red eyes.

Barry put a blood-soaked cloth under one of the bloodhound"s noses. The bloodhound sniffed it carefully, then ran towards a corner of Danello City.

This cloth was one that the arbitral knights as they had followed Jonathan. Although Jonathan escaped from the rat men ruins, many of his men were injured. The arbitral knights turned their residence upside down in order to find this cloth that had their blood on it.

“Follow the bloodhounds! They can"t escape now!”

In a bas.e.m.e.nt that was full of dust and spider webs, several people were crammed in together. Their eyes were somewhat blurry, as the dirty and messy environment, coupled with days of not eating much food, had made everyone tired and weak.

All kinds of emotions surged in the hearts of Jonathan and the others. During this period, they changed their dwellings continuously.

They dared not go out during the day, and food and water was scarce. The search in the city became more and more intense, and there were fewer and fewer places for them to hide.

A few wizards and alchemists who had been hiding in the city were caught and killed on the spot by the Faith of the Sun. If it hadn"t been for Jonathan"s early preparations, he would most likely be dead by now, just like them.

Jonathan stood up from time to time, feeling an overwhelming sense of danger. As he was a born adventurer, he could naturally predict danger. It was this ability that enabled him to escape traps over and over again, instead of dying like most other adventurers.

“We have to get out of here at once!” Jonathan said to the others.

“And go where? We have nowhere to hide!” someone said.

“I don"t feel right about this place. Let"s leave here first, then decide what to do next!” Jonathan immediately rushed out.

Everyone put on their cloaks and followed him. Not long after he left the old warehouse, he saw a group of people in the distance. Soon, a large group of soldiers had surrounded the warehouse where they had been hiding.

Jonathan and the others hid among the crowd. If they had left even a second later, they would have been caught by the Holy Knights of the Faith of the Sun. They all knew what that would have meant…

“Don"t look! Leave now. They are arbitral knights. Let"s leave separately. Don"t leave together. We will meet in the old place at midnight!” Jonathan looked at the insignia on the knights" cloaks and recognized them immediately.

“G.o.d, why haven"t the people come to help yet? We"re dead! We can"t run away! We can"t hide! It"s all over!” said another member of the group, clearly in despair.

Barry rode on a horse and watched the soldiers searching inside, while the situation in the bas.e.m.e.nt was explained to him. The bloodhound ran around and then looked outside. Barry took it and looked into the crowd.

Jonathan crossed dark alleys and ran on a path. He still felt that someone was chasing after him, as if he was being targeted. No matter where he went, he could not get rid of that hunted feeling!

The presence behind him was getting closer and closer, and Jonathan was so anxious, he rushed towards the most crowded places. At this time, he found out that the presence he felt was a bloodhound!

Jonathan was not afraid of the bloodhound, but he was nervous about the batch of Holy Knights following it. The man who was in front of the Holy Knights was looking at him.

It"s over. It"s over. It"s really over this time!

That man is at least a level three!

Jonathan was so panicked, he ran right into pedestrians and crashed into vendors along the road. Behind him, the Holy Knights blocked all of the roads, narrowing his escape routes. In their eyes, Jonathan was as good as dead.

Finally, at the foot of the city wall, the bloodhound rushed out of the crowd and blocked Jonathan. As its blood-red eyes looked at Jonathan, madness and fear occupied his heart and mind completely.

“Mechanical mind!” Jonathan used his magic, and a fireball formed in his hand. As he immediately sent it forward to hit the bloodhound, a huge explosion ripped through the bloodhound.

Jonathan then took this chance to climb up the wall like a spider. “Run away from here! As long as I can climb over this wall, I will have another chance!” Jonathan was sweating and kept talking to himself, as if it gave him great power somehow.

At this time, a silver light crossed the distance and arrived directly in front of Jonathan. Before Jonathan had time to respond to it, a silver pike penetrated his shoulder and nailed him to the wall.

A man quickly crossed the sky, came across the roof, then finally flew to Jonathan. It was Barry, the head of the arbitral knights.

Barry was looking at Jonathan with a pair of cold eyes. “Evil man! I will end you now!”

Jonathan groaned painfully and looked at Barry sadly. At that moment, Jonathan was overwhelmed with despair.

Barry stretched out his hand, readying to pull out his lance. At this moment, he suddenly saw something in the sky. It was a man, falling from the wall!

Barry quickly pulled out the Holy Knight Sword at his waist and struck at the man with it. The man had didn"t try to evade it at all, but took the stroke directly with his strong hand, immediately rendering Barry"s attack invalid.

Barry had to give in and took back the sword, asking, “Who are you?”

The man wore a linen cloak, and his hood had been blown down over his face by the strong wind. It could just barely be seen that the man had a bronze head.

Several metal pipes were on top of his head, and they were piping out steam constantly. His one mental arm stuck into the wall, and the other was protecting Jonathan. He looked at Barry, who was now on the ground.

Jonathan could even hear the sound of steam bursting from inside this man"s body, as well as some gears creaking. This was the great work of the alchemists, a superb mechanical alchemy doll that was powered by steam!

Happiness filled Jonathan"s pale face, and even his bleeding injury could not keep him from being excited.

“Archimonde, why did you come here? Did the dean come too?” he asked.

At this moment, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared on the wall. The Holy Knights and Barry turned to look solemnly at them.
