Xu Jun raised his head and looked at the stage. The person who spoke was a middle-aged man dressed solemnly. He looked a little weak. He was leaning on crutches and his face was pale. Don't you dare to make it to the end?!"
Cornono, I don't know what to say. During this time, the city of Montama suffered a plague-like plague of black disease. His father fell ill due to excessive stress, and his mother presided over large and small matters. He also asked for help from his mother's family, and his mother's family was always good to them. This time, however, he began to make conditions, and Cole knew that the noble families were clearly divided, and even if it was a biological daughter, she would belong to another family after marrying into someone else's family.
Mondama City is the most powerful of the southern free cities, with prosperous trade and a lot of taxes. Every year, in the name of gift-giving, it sends various materials and resources to many families in the Golden Banner Empire, and those families also become Mondama City. The "Friendly Family" of the City Lord Newt Family.
But when it really happened, I realized that, let alone the friendly family is unreliable, even the alliance family is a fool.
That Raquel, his Lange family had a good relationship with the Newt family twenty years ago. It is said that Kerr's eldest brother Red used to be friends with the current patriarch of the Lange family, that is, Raquel's cousin. After the elder brother died, their friendship dissipated.
This time the city of Montama suffered, the Lange family did not offer to help, but instead came to put pressure on it, even wanting the vulgar Raquel to marry Kerr's sister Irene.
It is estimated that the next step is to control the Newt family through marriage, and even control the city of Montama.
The funny thing is that they also said that Montama City was a corner city, and although it made a lot of money, the truly noble aristocrats didn't like it at all.
The Newt family also raised some guardian knights before, which cannot be compared with the Lange family, but they are also a fighting force that should not be underestimated. Resist most diseases, but even high-level knights may be attacked by this disease, which is simply chilling - and some have gone to patrol the south, and during the period from the end of summer to the autumn, you must be careful about the movement of the surrounding orcs , These savage guys like to siege and loot the city in winter, and a large part of the guardian knights of the Newt family are actually the elite troops of Montama City. It's not just a family that they want to protect.
Raquel took a fancy to this, so before the guardian knights returned, he put pressure on them. However, the method he used was also tricky. It was a duel between nobles, and a duel between nobles and nobles generally could not be done by guardian knights.
He sent a letter to Cole, which wrote a lot of dirty words, and Cole accepted the duel challenge in a fit of anger.
Among nobles, duels are directly related to reputation. Since Cole accepts it, he must participate.
If Xu Jun hadn't come, he and her sister would have been miserable.
But when Xu Jun came, the miserable one became the other party.
But even so, Cole and Irene couldn't make up for the other's remaining senior magister Du Du. He looked pitiful and looked at Xu Jun pleadingly, but Xu Jun was unmoved.
Cole hesitated, and Irene put down her staff even more. The priest is the one who saves people, so how can they kill people
The girl speaks ruthlessly, but it is limited to saying ruthless words.
Xu Jun nodded to the middle-aged man on stage, thinking that this might be the elder of Cole and Irene? Immediately, I felt a little guilty - I just instigated the two children to kill and make up for the knife, but no one heard it
It's like instigating a friend you just met to go online and play games... It's like being caught by someone's parents _(:зゝ∠)_
Hey, do you want to say sorry uncle next
Let's make up the knife. Don't bring bad children. Xu Jun thought about it and walked in front of Du Du. Du Du trembled all over, and when he saw Xu Jun touching the sword, his legs became soft and urinated.
Xu Jun: "..."
Du Du screamed: "Don't kill me! I know a lot of things! The black disease in Mundama City may be related to the black blood virus. It was Master Raquel who asked us to poison the moat a month ago!!! Lord! Don't you want to bring down the Lang family?! I can help!!! I know their secret!!!"
As a warrior, it is normal to have fear of death. But Xu Jun still swung down with a sword, stopping the opponent's "defection".
"I'm sorry, I really don't want to bring down the Lange family," he said.
—Even Xu Jun, who is doing quests with monsters and materials every day, knows that although the Lange family of the Golden Banner Empire is not big or small, it has mastered the military power of Gar County in the south of the empire, and its strength should not be underestimated. Such a big family How does he get it down? And what good is knowing too many secrets
After all, it's normal for Laquer to be stupid and do stupid things alone, and it's normal for the Lange family's reputation to be damaged, but can you count on this to bring them down completely
Even a scumbag like Xu Jun, who failed high school politics, knew it was impossible.
Not to mention... In the profession of the brave, if you want to get along well, you must be neutral. The stronger your strength, the more neutral you must be, so that you will not be regarded as a thorn in your side, and you will be assassinated at some point.
He has only killed a few people now, and it can be said that the duel was too exciting to stop it for a while, and it is normal for people to die on the duel arena, but the Lange family is not easy to pursue.
This is the best way to go.
At least it's over.
The duel field was dripping with blood, and the nobles onlookers first screamed, and then some cheered softly, and some vomited directly.
Each of them was asking: "Who is this warrior?" "Who is this man who can fight thieves and magisters at the same time and win?" "Is he a hedge knight? How much can he buy him? "
Of course, some people frowned and covered their mouths and whispered that this soldier was too savage, maybe he was a wanted criminal from somewhere.
They watched as the heroic and cruel warrior, or adventurer, walked down the stage and said softly to the referee: "For a record, the brave Xu Jun and his friends won the final victory in this duel."
The referee looked at Xu Jun's face up close, and subconsciously clamped his legs, he suddenly felt a little urge to pee.
"Sir, please forgive me, I didn't mean to..." He thought that he was acting at the face of Master Raquel at the beginning of the scene, so his face turned pale, and he muttered for mercy.
Xu Jun patted him on the shoulder, and simply wrote on the record board: "Relax, have you challenged me to a duel?"
There are four words on the record board: "Brave Xu Jun".
Chinese characters are still used, and all the worlds that have passed through this game are sinicized _(:зゝ∠)_ This is probably the only consolation for Xu Jun, a scumbag.
There are four words, there are still vague bloodstains below, it turned out that Xu Jun sprayed blood on his hands when he was fighting, and accidentally smeared it on the paper.
After he did all this, the weak middle-aged man walked down step by step with a cane. Some nobles bowed to him and called him the city lord, while some nobles just left the stage secretly. It seemed that they did not have a good relationship with the Newt family. look.
This is the father of Cole and Irene. He stopped Xu Jun: "Young man, wait a minute, this matter is a matter of the Newt family, and you can't be charged with the crime... and the anger of the Lange family."
Cole trotted all the way and called his father in a low voice, while Irene took her father's arm: "Dad, why are you here..."
It turned out that this was the city lord of Mondama City, Liona Newt, who was also the father of Cole and Irene. He looked at his two children with grief: "It's our own business, but in the end we have to Let our friends take the blame for us, and you can think about it for yourself, right?"
Cole and Irene suddenly looked guilty, looking at Xu Jun, Xu Jun waved his hand and said nothing: "I'm an adventurer, it's nothing, the real stress should be Ska."
The last sentence was said to Erin.
The little girl Irene's face turned red with a swipe. She peeked at Ska and lowered her head again. Ska just looked at the girl and smirked. While the two were abusing the dog, City Lord Newt was also reprimanding Cole: "If your eldest brother was still there! He would never do such a cowardly thing!"
Cole's eyes seemed to be blazing, and he looked at his father.
"You're really not as good as Red," his father sighed again, "Cole, if your big brother is still around..."
After the mention of Cole's big brother, the scene became very rigid. At this time, the audience almost all left, and Jace was also sitting in the audience, but now he went out to breathe. Lance jumped over, his footsteps were cheerful but his expression was still a little dull: "Dad! You are so amazing!"
"—I want to be as strong as you in the future!"
Xu Jun thought to himself, child, are you serious? You can pick ten of the items just now. →_→
He's used to Lance calling him dad now, but for Cole and Cole's old city lord, seeing a teenager call a 20-something young man his father... How scary is this!
City Lord Newt was not even in the mood to cherish his deceased eldest son for a while: "Mr. Xu Jun... Well maintained, well maintained."
However, he himself, who also has a teenage son, is already a middle-aged man with gray temples over half a hundred years old. QAQ
It is estimated that Cole and Irene rarely see their father like this. Irene and Ska secretly laughed. They both have a good impression of each other. Although they have not officially established their relationship, they have already produced a sour taste of love. When Xu Jun heard it, he wanted to raise the lighter and torch.
Mad, obviously he is the main force of this duel! Why didn't any girl look at him more!
- No, to be precise, he is obviously a pretty good guy! How can you be single until now!
Where is the girl who can admire his fighting spirit!
Thinking like this, I couldn't help but look at the already empty auditorium, but this look led to a problem.
A bone bird quietly stopped in the gap in the last row of the auditorium, with black photographic crystals inlaid in its dark eye sockets, and looked at Xu Jun deeply.
Xu Jun... swallowed a mouthful of water.
He didn't even have to ask who sent the bony bird—damn it! Your Majesty the Demon King, you left as soon as you left, why did you get the peeping problem? !
Baby is not live! ! !
The bone bird didn't know what was going on. He didn't run away when he found it. As a dark creature, it appeared here as a dead end. No matter who saw it, it would be directly killed. With this in mind, Xu Jun, Kirska and the others stopped when they walked to the exit.
"Wait, I seem to have dropped something."
He made an excuse, then walked over to the bone bird and held it lightly in his hands.
Packed in a small leather bag on his waist.
The Bone Bird's eyes were expressionless, after all, it could only have the effect of shooting and transmitting the picture, but when Xu Jun covered it and it tilted its head to look at Xu Jun, it still reminded Xu Jun of a person. .
"...The ghost knows what I'm thinking." The brave man muttered.
He actually didn't crush the bone bird to death, and didn't turn it over to the Light God Cult... This must be crazy.
What's even crazier is that he inevitably starts to miss him when he sees this bone bird. Missing Prince Ryan, of course, it may also be the Demon King Rosienke. He misses the time when that guy was still with him, he said whatever he wanted to say every day, and he could talk about everything in his heart.
... As the enemy of the Demon King, this is really a sickness.
Next to the dark abyss that has been cleaned up, in the palace of the Demon King.
There are official documents on the table in front of him, and His Majesty the Dark Lord Rosienke seems to be approving something.
There was a huge light and shadow crystal in front of him. After a while, he would look up at the crystal, and the picture on the crystal kept changing.
His stern face seemed to soften under the reflection of the crystal.
When he looked again this time, he found that the crystal was pitch black and there was no other picture. This is not to say that the Bonebird's peep failed, if it was destroyed, the crystal would also be broken, so the Bonebird should have been caught and put away by someone.
There was a smile on the face of Demon King Rosienke. He thought for a while, and pulled out a serious-looking notebook with a thick bronzing cover.
Then write down on it solemnly: "In 1366 of the Holy Light Calendar, late summer and early autumn, September 3rd."
"Xu Jun participated in a duel with no suspense. He met two new young people and seemed to become friends."
When he wrote the word "friend", Luo Xienke hesitated a little. In his eyes, being friends with humans was not always a good thing, but that was Xu Jun. He was indeed easy to make friends with people.
"—he also caught a bone bird."
The last sentence, even the brushstrokes are too soft.
The author has something to say: Jun Jun brave: actually sent a bone bird to peep at me! I didn't expect you to be such a demon king!
Demon King Xixi: No, I want to peep at you in your dreams _(:зゝ∠)_
Junjun brave black brother question mark face: Meow meow meow? What does this mean
