The nun with black stockings is actually a boy?

The believers calmed down and began to check their weapons.

"According to the intelligence provided by the Blood Hand Gang, our lost items may be at the auction. Bring those nobles before my Lord." The old believer shouted, "Action!"

"Kill!" thirty-two believers shouted in unison.

……

Elek Manor, first floor banquet hall.

"This is my first time managing such a large-scale operation. I hope God will bless me to succeed and not cause too many casualties, although that was bound to happen anyway." Helen, sitting in the chair, clasped her hands together devoutly. "Holy Light, bless you, Amen."

After she finished speaking, Helen slightly opened her green and charming eyes and stared at the golden gem on the auction table.

Chapter 41: Natalie's Love Rival's Declaration

"This item is called a Warp Core. It was found on the island by the High Elves of England in the last era." The host, Larnbit, exaggeratedly explained the golden gem on the auction block. "We invite the English side to make an offer and introduce it."

The leader of England was a tall, slender high elf man. He stood up and nodded to everyone.

High elves possess a natural aptitude for spellcasting, allowing them to use their skills significantly more frequently than other races. Their long lifespans have led them to become mages and sorcerers. They are also generally beautiful, a true culmination of beauty and strength. However, this comes at a price: extreme hardship and a low fertility rate.

The current Empress Zoe of the Empire also relied on some extraordinary means to successfully give birth, and her body still had hidden dangers, which was also the reason why she failed to be promoted to the 6th level later.

"We speculate that this object is the core of a mechanical creation from the last era. Its effect is to increase the speed of connection between planes or time." The male high elf introduced to everyone, "We need something related to breeding magic. Of course, we don't expect more, some other extraordinary props will also be fine."

After he finished speaking, the tall elf sat down as if nothing had happened.

Everyone on the field began to whisper to each other, because what the high elves brought this time was a bit too perfunctory.

Not to mention what use that thing was, even Osius who was present didn't bother to take a look at it.

Because this kind of thing is only needed by those powerful people who can travel through dimensions, and the people present are basically businessmen or young talents who do not have such high-end needs.

However, this situation is also normal between humans and high elves. High elves, like the dwarves on the Iberian Peninsula, keep a close eye on their own treasures and only sell those they don't like.

Compared to the stingy but reliable dwarves, high elves communicate more frequently with humans, and the large number of half-elves on the continent is solid evidence!

Because the high elves do not like to marry within the same race, because everyone has a long lifespan and the universe is low, the relationship between husband and wife is constantly declining, so there are a lot of divorces within the same race.

Therefore, the high elves like to go out to sea to find human wives or husbands, but this causes blood loss, and the main population of the high elves decreases instead of increases. Therefore, England has been traveling around the world in recent years just to get something that can reproduce.

"It seems that this time, in addition to getting something that can be bred, these pointy-eared people want to discuss something with the Roman high-ranking officials."

"Yeah, but I don't know if it was an invitation from Rome or if the High Elves came on their own."

……

Everyone present began to speculate on the significance of the High Elves' visit. After all, England was far away from here. Once the two sides made any moves, the European countries would have to think about the next situation.

Helen, on the other hand, was staring intently at the thing called the jump core on the stage, but she was horrified in her heart.

Because the thing on the stage is the [Beacon of Hope] that can shorten the player's resurrection time in the previous game, right?

In the past, every large guild had this thing. During guild wars, as long as this was taken out, the player's original twelve-hour resurrection time would be reduced to two or three minutes, lasting for a day, with a cooldown period of one week. A large amount of magic energy was required to replenish it, otherwise it could not be used normally.

Players can be resurrected near the [Beacon of Hope], which is a strategic item that acts as a time shortener and resurrection point.

"If it really has the effect he said, I can get deeper cooperation with the players... and if it's possible... maybe I can borrow the things to go home?" Helen became more and more excited as she thought about it, and in the end she even became hesitant.

Natalie saw Helen's legs rubbing against each other and immediately laughed and said, "You want it?"

But Helen stared at the [Beacon of Hope] on the stage, nodded slightly, and lowered her head to say "hmm".

Natalie was stunned on the spot, then her pretty face flushed, and she lowered her head and murmured softly: "Yeah, it's not impossible, let me take a shower when I get home tonight, and then we can slowly..."

"I think you two are talking about unhealthy topics."

Suddenly, Ivylia next to her interrupted Natalie with an expressionless face.

Natalie glared instantly.

Helen also woke up from her fantasy.

Ivylia ignored their reactions and turned to look at the stage. "The auction is over."

Helen and Natalie turned their heads to look at the stage, only to see the English High Elf walking off the stage holding the [Beacon of Hope], and the host enthusiastically talking about the upcoming social dance.

"Huh~ Let's go back and change clothes." Helen patted her cheeks and stood up.

Natalie stood up with a blush on her face when she heard that, "Helen!"

"Huh? What's wrong?" Helen turned her head when she heard that.

"Remember what you promised me." Natalie said a little shyly.

Helen smiled and said gently, "Of course. I promise you'll have fun tonight."

Hearing this, Natalie glanced at the stage again and smiled in relief: "It turns out I was wrong."

"What's wrong?" Helen was surprised.

Natalie took a step forward and, taking advantage of her height over Helen, whispered in her ear.

Helen blushed immediately after hearing what Natalie had just said.

Ivilia blinked at the side. As a bloody assassin, her hearing was naturally very good.

"That's enough. Go to the room later and I'll change into a suit immediately." Helen raised her right hand threateningly.

Natalie pretended to be tearful and said, "But..."

"But what?"

“We didn’t buy it.”

"I, I'll just borrow one later." Helen crossed her arms, turned around and followed the crowd into the aisle.

Natalie covered her mouth and smiled. She had prepared a suit for herself and was waiting to invite Helen later.

"Aren't you leaving?" Ivilia asked, standing next to Natalie.

Natalie came back to her senses and turned to look at Avila, "You are not allowed to follow me."

Ivilia nodded.

"Huh?" Natalie didn't expect Evelyn to be so obedient.

"You guys are going to fight the bad guys next, take me with you." Ivilia said seriously, "I will follow your arrangements."

"Uh, why are you helping us like this?" Natalie was surprised.

She had always thought that Ivilia was with them just for profit, or for the sake of the family, but now after talking like this, it seemed that this was not the case.

"Because you are my friends, I will naturally help you." Ivilia said expressionlessly, her eyes revealing seriousness.

Natalie lowered her head and fell silent.

The purer a person is, the more passionate and lasting their feelings tend to be.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Natalie didn't answer, Ivilia thought she was unhappy.

"I really envy you, Miss Ivilia." Natalie raised her head and said, "You have everything I envy: a wonderful family, endless food, endless money, and no worries about making a living."

Ivilia opened her eyes slightly.

"But I will never lose to you. I'm glad that I will always be by Helen's side." Nata raised her head and said proudly, "I will remove all his obstacles one by one, because he is the only one who recognizes me."

After she finished speaking, she took firm steps to catch up with Helen, leaving Ivilia in a daze.

"Why...are you feeling uncomfortable?"

In the empty hall, Ivilia muttered to herself in confusion.

Chapter 42: Rome's Greatest Evil - The Sun

There is a lounge on the first floor of Aleck Manor for distinguished guests to change clothes.

But because there were so many guests tonight, Helen, Natalie and Ivilia were all squeezed into one room.

"Avila, do you really want to get involved?" Helen sat on the sofa with a serious expression.

Ivylia, who was standing in front of Helen, nodded slightly and said, "I don't want to dance."

"Uh, is dancing difficult?" Helen thought Ivilia's reason was strange. Logically speaking, how could a bloody assassin with such strong body flexibility not like dancing?

"I don't like dancing, and I don't like dancing a duet with others." Ivilia shook her head and refused.

Helen shrugged and said, "Okay, then I do need a task here, and I need to assign it to you and Natalie."

Natalie, who was about to go to the dressing room to change clothes, was startled.

"What mission? Fight the bad guys?" Ivilia became inexplicably excited.

"Go to the west gate of the manor and ambush near the passage." Helen nodded. "Remember, green robes are bad guys! Gray robes are friends. If you encounter a gray robe questioning you, just say you are a member of the Scourge Watch."

"No problem." Although Natalie didn't understand the specific meaning, she still remembered the content clearly.

"Remember to wear a mask." Helen smeared the mask on the table, "Don't let anyone know your identity, especially the guards in the manor."

Ivilia reached out and took the mask that Helen had applied. "I know. I will help you. You are my friend."

Helen felt warm inside, and then nodded at her, "After this incident is over, I will get you the level 3 seed."

"My mother recommended a part-time Death Knight, and she also said she wanted to meet you." Ivilia put on the mask.

Helen stood up and saluted Ivilia. "Then I will respectfully obey your command. I will visit you another day."

Ivilia, who had always been expressionless, smiled slightly, and then disappeared from the room the next second.

"Natalie, do you want to cause trouble?" Helen turned her head to look at Natalie next to her.

Natalie swallowed and nodded slightly.

"You're in the hall..."

"Can I do the same job as Avila?"

"Why?" Helen was surprised.

"Because I don't want to lose to her." Natalie started to compete inexplicably.

"Indeed, but it's a little dangerous. I want you to be on guard in the hall." Helen stood on tiptoe and reached out to touch Natalie's little head.

"I'm not a big lady like Ivilia. I can stand on my own." Natalie lowered her head slightly. "And don't be so gentle like an old mother."

"I just don't want you to get hurt." Helen withdrew her hand. "But I respect your idea. It's a little dangerous~"

"I'm going. After the battle tonight, I think I can make a breakthrough." Natalie said with a determined look.

Helen was startled, then lowered her head and hummed, "The east gate of the manor, the content is the same as what I told Ivilia."

Young eagles always want to fly, right?

He tried to convince himself.

"I'm leaving now. Remember to finish our dance when you come back." Natalie put on the mask.

"dance?"

"I was planning to invite you tonight."

"I see." Helen smiled gently: "If you can't beat them, run away."

"Believe me~" Natalie smiled, put on her mask and left.

Helen, who was alone in the empty room, sighed and patted her cheeks. "This arrangement is good. It will make it easier for me to fish in troubled waters later."

Tonight, he not only has to complete the deal with the Bloody Hand Gang, pin the crime of "Grey Gold Gang and cultists attacking the royal family" on the Grey Gold Gang and completely gain the help of the Bloody Hand Gang, an underground force, but also has to secretly steal some things from today's auction.

He needs to become stronger. Now the goblin army still has three months to attack Constantinople. If he doesn't become stronger and catch up with the current level 5 progress, when the magic energy increases in the next version and the 10th level is opened, the gap between him and those geniuses from various countries will become larger and larger.

He must work hard to become stronger and find a way to go home, as his father is still waiting for him in the ward.

He must go back!

"I want to go home!" Helen took a deep breath and pushed the door open. What came into her sight was Osius and his entourage and guards in the corridor.

"Oh? It's little Helen. The dance has started, let's go quickly." Osius looked a little surprised, then smiled with relief.

Helen was startled, and simply took off her mask and saluted Osius, "It seems that I can't hide it from the Prime Minister."
