The major raised his hands, signaled his admission, and said with a wry smile: "I will try my best to greet you and let them review normally. The observation period is one month. If there is no infection, you will be released. If that doesn't work, you should kill him." I'm ready."
Normal review, there will be a more reasonable survival rate. Qianye sighed secretly in his heart, retracted the major's foot, put the Eagle Kick into the holster, and turned his back.
"That's it, I'll pay attention to the result." After finishing speaking, Qianye turned and left.
The major got up, twisted his neck vigorously, and suddenly shouted at Qianye's back: "Hey! Kid, don't do such stupid things next time!"
Qianye didn't seem to hear it, and left without looking back.
The major spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm and cursed, "What a fucking monster!"
Whether this sentence evaluates Qianye's strength or character is unknown.
Qianye walked very fast, and it didn't take long for the surroundings to be wilderness again. However, at this moment, the major's words were still echoing in his heart.
Rescuing people who were raised by blood clans now seems to be a thankless and stupid thing. It's not that these people should not be rescued, but because of the current system of the entire empire and the principle of killing blood slaves rather than letting them go.
This system and principles have been honed through thousands of years of brutal wars, with the flesh and bones of countless pioneers and powerful people, and it is not even possible to judge right from wrong based on the limitations of one time and one place. If anything, the empire still exists and is still strong, which shows its correctness.
Even if Qianye has different ideas, he is only one person, and it is impossible to fight against the entire system, let alone he has no clue now. At least in front of him, he couldn't really kill the major of the expeditionary force and the gate guards for the sake of dozens of raised humans. That would be a stupid act of self-destructing the Great Wall. No matter how many problems the expeditionary army has, it is also the last line of defense for human beings against the dark race on the Eternal Night Continent.
The last proposal made by the major was already the most tolerant plan under the current circumstances, but after Qianye thought about it further, he found that the matter did not stop here. Even if the dozens of people were released safely in the future, their situation would not be better. where to go.
The empire has four continents and more than 300 provinces, but compared with the huge population and the threat of powerful foreign enemies, resources are never enough.
On the territory of the empire, there are hundreds of millions of low-level poor people struggling with life and death every day. In contrast, these raised people are not eligible for better treatment unless they can prove that they are useful.
However, this is not easy. Some of those human beings were captured. They have memories of the human kingdom, and they may be able to integrate into society. Some were born in the Dark Territory and grew up in the Dark Territory. Life in human society is still unknown.
It was not until today that Qianye encountered this question for the first time that he hadn't thought about before, that is, the aftermath of the war, but he didn't know where the answer was.
After returning to Dark Blood City, Qianye first went to Ah Yi's weapon shop.
Master Yi raised his head, glanced at Qianye expressionlessly, and said, "Are you here again?"
"Some good things for you." Qianye said, throwing a satchel on the counter.
Master Yi snorted, stood up slowly, and said, "Good thing? I think it's troublesome! Sooner or later, I'll have to hand over my old bones to you..."
Before Yi Ye finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly.
The clasp of the satchel was broken and had fallen apart, revealing the pair of blood-clan's antique short guns. Yi Ye suddenly took off his glasses, wiped them carefully, then took out a pair of snow-white gloves and put them on, then held his breath, gently pulled out the two short guns and put them on the white cloth.
"Go and close the door!" Yi Ye said without looking back.
Qianye locked the store door according to his words, feeling a little more anticipation in his heart. Back then, the three-level gold rose could be sold for five hundred gold coins. These two antique short guns were a pair, and they were still four-level force guns! How can it be worth two or three thousand
In this way, the materials on the second master's list will not be a problem.
Of course, as for that mysterious task, as long as it is not too troublesome, Qianye is also willing to take it. Although it may not be as simple as it seems on the surface, otherwise the second master would not have made every effort to find him, but based on his trust in Yu Yingnan, Qianye still felt that there would be no harm in giving it a try.
While wiping the short gun with a leather cloth, Master Yi carefully traced every pattern on it with his thumb. An R is engraved on the butt of one musket, and a curlicue W on the other.
Master Yi put the two short guns side by side, and said to Qianye: "Take these two guns back, I can't."
"Can't accept it? Why?" Qianye was stunned for a moment.
The first master pointed to the two letters on the gun, and said, "If I read correctly, you must have got these two guns from the collection room of a blood-sucking nobleman. Although the abbreviations of these two letters may have There are many meanings, but there is only one name on a pair of force guns, Ross Wilder, a very famous vampire nobleman. These two guns are the guns he wore when he was young, named "Twin Blossoms" ', they became famous when this Ross was only a baron, that is, when he was a ninth-level human soldier. He killed the general and city lord of the Dark Blood City at that time in a decisive battle, and the one who completed the final blow was These two short guns."
"That should be more valuable, right?" Qianye asked puzzled.
The first master shook his head and said: "The problem is that this Rose Wilder is not dead yet, and he is still alive and well. He is now a marquis. His territory is in the vast area west of Darkblood City. A pair of short guns should be a gift from him to a certain descendant. No matter how you got them, it is equivalent to slapping the Marquess of Ross, and he will never let it go. So, I can't accept it. In the Panshi Territory and surrounding areas, no one dares to accept these two things."
Speaking of this, Master Yi took a meaningful look at Qianye and said, "You know, the border between darkness and dawn is actually what people call the gray zone. The so-called gray is the coexistence of black and white. So the dark race wants to There are many ways to do something, and there are many humans willing to work for them."
Qianye was a little stunned. From the incident in Heiliu City to seeing the black market and underground munitions in Dark Blood City, he has realized that there may be more transactions and exchanges between the human race and the dark race behind the scenes than he could have imagined. But before the first master said it so bluntly, he still never thought that a vampire marquis would have such a powerful influence in the human-controlled area.
Surprised, Qianye involuntarily burst into anger. In fact, it is right to think about it, even the active division commander of the expeditionary army can secretly deal with the dark race, so why is it so strange for other families and forces to do so
Qianye took a deep breath, and brought back the pair of short guns, "So, not only can I not sell this thing, but I will also be hunted down by the blood race?"
"It seems so."
However, the first master immediately hinted to Qianye that Ross's double guns cannot be sold in Dark Blood City, which does not mean that they cannot be sold in the upper continent. After thinking about it for a while, Qianye understood his subtext. A Blood Marquis who was able to kill human warriors at the baron rank was indeed a big shot, but he was just a big shot in this territory. After all, it was a matter of strength. The Marquis of Ross has yet to reach the upper continent.
In addition to the pair of "Two Life Flowers" that can't be released now, Qianye's loot also includes a bag of crystal coins and a third-level force gun belonging to the blood knight of the patrol team, so in the end he had a hundred more imperial gold coins in his pocket. It can be regarded as a small gain.
After disposing of the equipment, Qianye went to report to Second Master. After a while, the two sat down in a quiet shop near the hunter's house, chatting while eating.
After hearing about Qianye's adventures, Second Master's expression gradually turned from admiration to solemnity, and then he smiled helplessly.
Qianye looked calm and said, "Why, you also think I've caused trouble?"
"The one who was killed should be a descendant of Rose Wilder. Being able to develop into an independent small clan means that it is at least within five generations of his blood. What do you think? I know you are never afraid of fighting the dark race head-on, but the deadly Daggers are often stabbed from the back."
Qianye smiled slightly and said, "I'm not that easy to deal with either. If anyone is willing to sacrifice their lives for the dark race, then I don't mind reaping more lives. I'll kill as many as they come!"
"You're only level four!" Second Master said earnestly. In fact, it was because Qianye was only at level four, if he had level eight or nine or even broke through to Warlord, there would be much fewer black hands behind him. To sell this kind of thing, you have to look at who is being sold!
Qianye just smiled and didn't comment on the level.
The second master said seriously: "Now I can talk to you about the task. Miss Qiqi will send someone over tomorrow for the last interview. If you pass the test, you will set off on the same day. However, I think you pass the test." no problem."
"Miss Qiqi?" This was a name that was completely unfamiliar to Qianye.
"Yin Qiqi, one of the core successors of Yin Ma Yin's generation. The Yin family can be listed as a family of the third rank in the entire empire, and it is one of the top-ranking families in Qin Lu, so you should have a general idea of Miss Qiqi's status. "
Qianye is naturally very clear. The aristocratic class of the empire is quite complicated. There are four big families, seventy-two families, and more than a thousand noble families. They have generally followed the nine-rank classification when the country was founded. Zhang, Zhao, Bai, and Song four clans in the upper three ranks are well-deserved leaders of the high families, and there are some super families whose strength is not much worse than them. Although the rankings of the upper, middle and lower ranks will always change, Yinma Yin's Prominent families like the Yuandong Wei family and the Langya Wang family have never fallen out of the upper third rank.
The most intuitive manifestation is that when Qianye was still on missions with the Red Scorpion, there would be a page in the mission information he received each time that specifically explained the exceptions that the local "casualty indicators" could not be used. protected.
The core heir of the upper third-rank family like Yin Qiqi, in terms of status in the imperial aristocratic sequence, is not known to be much higher than the Lord of the Dark Blood City and the Major General of the Expeditionary Army.
What makes Qianye a little puzzled is, what kind of tasks does a young lady with such a prominent status need to find a low-level hunter to complete
The second master said: "Your task is to serve as Miss Qiqi's advisor, adjutant, warrior, assassin, and, when necessary, a lover during her stay in the Evernight Continent."
Qianye just took a sip of water, and almost sprayed it all on the second master's face when he heard the words: "Lover?!"
The second master rolled his eyes: "Of course it's fake!"
