Resist to the end?
Messiah was taken aback by Josiah's answer.
She really couldn't imagine how a spellcaster with barely any mana ripples would have the courage to say 'resist to the end' to four fully-armed Sacred Legionnaires.
Could it be those brooms?
Messiah glanced behind Josiah. The other three servants had already picked up their brooms and were ready to fight when they saw their 'boss' was in a standoff.
Unfortunately, these crude wooden brooms couldn't do any damage to the armor of the paladins. Even if the servants had iron swords, they wouldn't be able to hurt the paladins.
They were the elites who fought against the demons on the frontlines, but they were sent to Noland for a mission.
"Demons are really dangerous to normal people. They are cunning, and I think you must have been deceived by her lies."
Messiah tried to persuade Josiah for the last time. She really didn't want to attack normal people. It went against her teachings and her conscience.
"I don't see any cunning demons. I only know that this employee is … professional, honest, and friendly. And standing in front of me is a group of rude knights."
Josiah almost recited the core values of society.
But that was the end of courtesy. Josiah should let these paladins know that the place they were in was called Noland, and not the Kingdom of the Holy, Messiah!
"Frost Axe!"
Josiah turned around and yelled the name of the dwarven elder. Ever since they became friends through hearthstones, Josiah and Frost Axe no longer had to address each other. When they were rubbing hearthstones, they could call each other 'you goddamn dog!' without any hesitation.
"What?! You're finally willing to sell me the Wings of Death?! "
"Not because of that. I'm sorry, but we have to close early today."
Josiah got the strongest orange card in hearthstone last night, which was the legendary 'Wings of Death'. From the moment he saw the power of Wings of Death, Frost Axe had been thinking of ways to buy this card from Josiah.
Anyone who had just started playing Hearthstone would be shocked by the powerful effects of Deathwing, causing them to overlook the negative effects of Deathwing.
This was also the case in real life. For example, the female paladin in front of Josiah.
The paladins were very strong. When the paladin A went up, the paladins typed GG.
"Close?! It's only morning for the dwarves! "
Frost Axe seemed to have heard some shocking news. it was even more shocking than the underground city's most important mineral vein suddenly collapsing and crushing his lizard pet to death.
The dwarves who lived underground had no concept of day and night. To them, there was only mining, forging, and entertainment time.
"Because this female paladin had a little conflict with us, this tavern will be the site of the conflict. I don't want you to get hurt."
Josiah stepped aside to let the dwarves see the female knight who was almost 1.8 meters tall.
Messiah also tried to straighten his back. This female knight who didn't have much contact with the dwarves wanted to persuade the dwarves to leave just like she did with Josiah, in case they accidentally hurt the dwarves.
But Messiah finally saw the dwarves' violent temper today.
"Conflict? In other words, a fight? When have we dwarves ever been afraid of fighting! "
Frost Axe jumped down from his seat and crushed a crystal in his clothes. The moment the crystal broke, a heavy axe with inscriptions appeared in his hand.
The blade of the axe was almost 2 meters long. With Frost Axe's height of 1.2 meters, it was doubtful if he could pick up the axe.
But it turned out that not only could Frost Axe pick up the axe, he could also use this axe to chop off the head of a dragon.
The giant axe fell to the ground, causing the whole ground to tremble slightly. Cold air began to spread from the axe's blade.
"Are you going to fight? Count me in! "
The other dwarves also stood up, each picked up a forging hammer, a wooden cup, a chair, or directly waved their fists and began to walk towards the four paladins.
This momentum and momentum was much more terrifying than the four paladins. The adjutant standing next to Messiah couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Wait a minute, we don't mean to hurt you … It's just …"
At this moment, Messiah suddenly understood. She wasn't stupid. Josiah was deliberately drawing the dwarves' hatred to them.
But Messiah didn't expect these dwarves to listen to Josiah's words. No … it should be said that they valued this tavern so much!
As soon as they heard that they were going to start a conflict in this tavern, these dwarves acted as if their own mother had died.
Messiah wanted to explain to these dwarves that there was a misunderstanding between them, but it was too late to explain anything now.
The most terrifying thing was that some of these dwarves were drunk. Under the instigation of this emotion, it became the consensus of all the dwarves that these guys in silver armor should be driven out.
This wasn't something that could be changed with one or two dwarves being convinced. Messiah had to convince nearly 70 dwarves to calm down.
But there was nothing more difficult to convince than a dwarf who had drunk and started to go crazy. If there was, it would be a dwarf who had already drunk to the point of losing consciousness.
Even if this female paladin's combat skills were superb, it didn't have any effect on her eloquence.
The moment all the dwarves in the tavern surrounded them, the four paladins and Messiah's adjutant could only keep retreating until they finally left the tavern.
This was no longer a question of whether Messiah could guarantee the safety of the people in the tavern. Instead, Messiah had to consider whether his comrades could go back alive.
Although many of the dwarves were using the stools in the tavern as weapons, the axe in the hands of the dwarf named Frost Axe was definitely an extraordinary weapon.
There was no way Myrcella could defeat the dwarf alone.
"You guys dare to cause trouble in the tavern where I, Frost Axe, stay? You will pay the price!"
Frost Axe's coarse voice resounded through the entire street, attracting the attention of many people. Looking at her posture, Frost Axe really wanted to beat these people up and then let them go.
"I'm very sorry, Elder Frost Axe! This was an unintentional accident. "
The adjutant stood up at this time and began to try to ease the tension between both sides.
"Don't say anymore, this time it was my reckless move."
Messiah gritted her teeth. She knew that if she wanted to appease the dwarves' anger this time, there was no other way other than to fight them head-on and then lose.
"Frost Axe, calm down. This will have a bad effect on your dwarves."
At this time, Josiah once again appeared as a messenger of peace. Josiah directly went in front of the dwarves who were ready to fight.
No matter which country openly started a war on the streets, even if Frost Axe's position in Noland was high, it would still have a negative impact on him.
"Then you want to let that little girl go so easily?"
Frost Axe was still angry. Although these paladins didn't do anything, after hearing Josiah say that they were here to cause trouble, his anger directly rose.
"Of course not, Miss Knight. I think the demons that you think are evil should be seen on the battlefield. Because they are all your enemies, only the soldiers of the enemy country would think of them as evil."
Josiah said to Messiah who was standing not far away.
Messiah opened her mouth to refute Josiah, but the adjutant next to her stretched out his hand and pulled Messiah.
In terms of conduct, this missionary who often mingled in the city was far more experienced than the female knight who lived on the battlefield all year round.
"So, Miss Knight, as compensation and also to cooperate with your investigation, if you have time, how about coming to our tavern to help out for a few days? Although our tavern is a little small, there are usually a lot of customers, so we can't handle it at all. As for the salary, I will pay you daily. "
Josiah gave Messiah a way out, a step that would lead to a bottomless pit. It was up to Messiah whether she was willing to step on it or not.
"…"
Messiah briefly thought for a few seconds. This condition that Josiah gave was killing two birds with one stone. Obviously, Josiah wanted to persuade her to let the demon go, but during the working time in the tavern, Messiah was more confident that she could persuade Josiah.
As long as she could expose the demon's plot, it was enough.
"I accept your condition because I was too impulsive."
Messiah finally chose to compromise, but she also didn't give up on persuading Josiah. Maybe she should try the words that the nun who raised her once said, "Not only can the sword be used as a weapon, but also words!"
"Very well, then I will trouble Miss Knight to prepare. Our tavern will be open 24 hours a day. Sorry for the trouble."
Josiah said to the dwarves behind him, but the dwarves' anger didn't seem to have subsided.
"As compensation, I will give everyone three packs of free card bags later."
When Josh said this, the anger on the dwarves' faces instantly turned into smiles. Although the card pouch was very cheap, it was free, and it had been given to them by the game developers.
