Reluctantly cheered up, he said that Paladin, who was sick, bid farewell to Andrew and Canarava, and left first. In the restaurant where Andrew and Canarava are left. Canarava ate fresh tomatoes and said with a pun: "The tomatoes are fresh and have a good aroma, but I don't want his taste."
Hearing this, Andrew was silent and said nothing. But Canarava put down the tomatoes, looked at Andrew and smiled: "Does your Excellency like tomatoes? Maybe you like it, maybe you just like the fragrance, right? Bananas, apples, strawberries, grapes. It doesn't have to be tomatoes. "Andrew snorted, he naturally knew what Kanalava meant. This guy doesn't like Paladin, and he is still questioning so many people that he is not good, but choose this guy
Andrew took a bite of a piece of golden bread very leisurely, swallowed it in his stomach and said with satisfaction: "No matter how bad the tomato tastes, his fragrance is my favorite. Dean Canarava, aren't you too? Are you running for this fragrance?" "But, after the fragrance dissipates..." "Naturally throw him away." The two guys asked and answered. Secretly discussed how to use Paladin. After that, the two of them smiled in unison, and everything was silent. .
Paladin, who was almost lying on the back of a horse and ran back to **, suddenly opened the wooden door of the church and walked in. At this time, the night was quiet, and it was midnight again. As soon as Paladin entered the room, he collapsed on the chair and felt this extremely peaceful moment. At this moment, the originally tired mind felt a rare peace. Paladin just sat on the back chair, staring dully at a certain place on the bookshelf in front of him. With his eyes out of focus, he was more like a dead man at this time.
"Hey... can't sleep, not at all." Paladin sighed suddenly. An invisible sense of loss surrounded the Palatine. It has been more than a month, and Paladin has not slept for more than a month. Not only did he not get tired, but he became more energetic. And now, I can't even eat the food!
Paladin raised his right hand slightly, removed the glove, looked at the crystallized place on the palm and wrist, and fell into contemplation. Loneliness is the most intuitive feeling of Paladin at this time. There is no one who understands him, no one who supports him, and no one who is even in the same situation as him. Although he is in the prosperous human world. But it is like the grease on the water, which can never meet the water. Even the people who usually come and go are some guys who are on their guard and take advantage of each other. He even felt that he was ostracized and isolated from the whole world.
All of a sudden, Paladin felt a little enlightened. He has been constantly fighting for a better life and plundering by unscrupulous means. But three months later, although he became a priest, he also served as the auxiliary bishop of the diocese, and also served as the religious authority of the three towns. But what is under this gorgeous coat? Whether poor or noble, as long as living creatures can enjoy the enjoyment of sleep, and the satisfaction brought by food. Palatine could no longer experience it. If it goes on like this, the Paladin will lose more, more! Was this really what the Palatine wanted
"No!" Paladin's eyes suddenly stared, and he murmured stubbornly: "This is what I want. This power brings everything I dreamed of! Status, respect, glory and gold coins! Everything in the world can be traded. Everything is Equality! As much as I have gained, I will lose as much. Isn't this a long-standing realization? Paladin! What are you regretting now? What are you confused about!"
Paladin, who was talking to himself, muttered as if to convince himself. But he selectively ignored a fact. A fact he didn't want to face. Today's Paladin is inseparable from this power. It's not so much that Palatine is powerful because of his power. Rather, it was the power that became stronger because of Paladin's obsession and desire. It's like a rough mountain road. Able to reach the top of the dream.
Many people dare not set foot at the intersection, but more people are looking for this mountain road. Palatine walked up with the determination that there would be no return. He is determined. But after walking for a while, the distant mountains and endless woods on the ground were vaguely seen. His beliefs began to crumble. Doubt, confusion, and fear began to sway his thoughts. I was regretting not being in time, and when I wanted to go back, I was horrified to see that the mountain road back home disappeared at some point. At the foot of the back is the abyss, the only way is to go up, keep going up!
Paladin shook his head slightly, throwing all the messy thoughts out of his mind. Strength is what you need. Because power can reap what you want. Paladin convinced himself that he was about to stand up and go to the table to read the alchemy book again in the evening. The door of the church was suddenly knocked loudly: "Da Da... Da Da Da... Da Da."
Paladin was taken aback. This is the code set by that mercenary captain Harvey! In other words, this guy who was doing robbery everywhere and contacting other manufacturers of armor behind his back is finally back
Palatine immediately put on his robe and hurried downstairs to open the door. He saw a blood-stained armor, and a happy Harvey looking at himself with a smile on his long beard. "It's rare, much faster than I expected." Paladin glanced up and down at Harvey, then at the hundreds of heavily armored soldiers in plate armor behind him, and the unconscious prisoners piled up like piles of garbage , are piling up in the accompanying five carriages.
And when Paladin roughly estimated how many people there were, Harvey let out a low laugh, stepped forward and hugged Paladin, and the newly added scar on his face immediately flushed red. "My father, tell you, this journey is exhausting me, you must know." Who knew that before Harvey had finished speaking, Paladin waved his hand impatiently to stop Harvey's tirade. Showdown himself: "Give me twenty, and you can take sixty gold coins."
Harvey was stunned for a moment, and immediately waved to the soldiers behind him indifferently. Immediately, dozens of soldiers lightly carried the twenty unconscious men and women who were completely stripped down and walked into Palatine's church.
Paladin looked at these soldiers, and it was obvious that the armor on his body was a little broken, and even a soldier's breastplate had bloodstains that had not been wiped clean. Apparently the Harvey gang had been through a lot of brutal battles. But Palatine couldn't imagine what war was like. Although he has read the book, he has heard the old soldier say it.
But he, who has never been on the battlefield, doesn't understand the horror of the meat grinder on the battlefield. I also don't have much affection for these mercenaries who only know how to hack and slash. When the soldiers put down the unconscious captives and went out in turn. Harvey is about to get in touch with Paladin. But I saw Palatine throwing a bag of gold coins with a straight face. There are a hundred rough numbers! Forty more gold coins!
"I'm very sleepy, I want to sleep. Captain, do it yourself. The rest of the money will be used as a reward for your subordinates." "Ahaha, how embarrassing is this!" in armor. Just about to climb further with Paladin. Paladin said angrily: "Captain, I have a lot of things to do tomorrow. I hope you don't disturb me." "I'm just looking to see if I can help." "No, thank you." The door, and then put the iron lock. Let Harvey stand in front of the door with a speechless face.
ps: Peng Li flame, you say a mess. What's wrong? Where are you not pleasing to the eye? Before you criticize me, I hope you can tell me what is wrong with me, and if it is reasonable, I will try to correct it as much as possible. Instead of saying bad, bad. But didn't say why. Easier said than done.
