The young man was handsome, with fair skin, short dark blond hair, a broad forehead, and an aquiline nose. But such a face often makes people feel a little mean.
Two teams of regular gunmen in brown leather armor rushed in from outside the manor and surrounded Liang Li's team.
The middle-aged housekeeper who was standing by and was about to send someone out had a rather strange expression on his face: "Eldest young master, what do you mean? They are the master's distinguished guests."
"Squall, I know the seriousness." The young man reprimanded the middle-aged housekeeper, and then said to Liang Lidong: "I am Lance Brook, the commander of the border army in Sicily City. Three hours ago, I received a report from a reliable person, saying that you have a great relationship with two elves who died naked on the street. According to the local law, you have been arrested, please come with us."
"As for Miss Emma, you are the Holy Maiden of the Temple of Storms. Logically speaking, we have no right to detain you, but considering your danger, we must put you under house arrest. Please rest assured that we will not be rude. After the matter is clarified, we will hand you over to the Temple of Storms."
After the young man finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the two teams of spearmen rushed forward to arrest him.
Emma picked up the staff and just tapped it down lightly. A whirlwind centered on her and Liang Lidong and spread to the surroundings. The two teams of spearmen were blown left and right.
Seeing this, Lance's face became gloomy: "Miss Emma, we deal with you lightly for the sake of the Temple of Storms, but please take other people's kindness for granted. We know that you have a noble status. , you can avoid the uncivilized interrogation treatment, but you must also cooperate, come with us, and your subordinates must explain the matter clearly."
"It's a pity that I'm not the team leader." Emma took a step back and stood behind Liang Lidong: "Your Excellency is our team leader, and I'm just an ordinary team member."
Lance's pupils shrank suddenly.
Liang Lidong stood at the same spot, with a faint smile on his face: "It's just an unknown report, you believe it, and you want to arrest us? I also said that you leaked Holevin's military secrets to the enemy country. Isn't that right? I'm going to kill you now? Are you an idiot, or do you have other plans? I don't care what you are, please get out of the way! Although we are nobles, we are also professionals. The nobles' tricks It doesn't work on us."
Lance's face became gloomy. He looked at his subordinates who were stumbling around, and then said angrily: "Professionals are amazing. I have seen many professions, and they have to prostrate themselves like dogs in front of our nobles!"
"They are ordinary civilian professionals. And their strength is not strong." Liang Lidong continued the maddening disdainful smile just now: "But we are different, we are not only professionals, but also nobles, and most importantly, We are strong."
Lance was irritated by Liang Lidong's expression, and he laughed angrily: "You mean, if I dare to arrest you, you will resist and kill me?"
"You can try." Liang Lidong said calmly.
"Hmph, I don't believe it, everyone listen to me..."
There was a 'wow'. A bronze beam of light flew directly across the left side of Lance's head, and he swallowed the second half of his sentence back into his stomach.
Although it was just brushing aside, the magic lightning carried in the 'money strike bombardment' made Lance's whole body numb.
"One more move, and the magic will hit your head."
After Liang Lidong finished speaking, he turned and left. Emma blinked and followed.
Lance only dared to keep a dark face on the spot, but he didn't dare to order his subordinates to come forward.
The two of them left the range of the manor, Emma trotted a few steps, and stood side by side with Liang Lidong. Then she asked curiously: "Your Excellency Beta, it's not good for you to offend them like this."
Although Emma is a saint, she is still a young girl. Naturally, in terms of courage, there is no way to compare with someone like Liang Lidong who has experienced big scenes.
He explained: "The boy wanted to arrest us just now, just to find a few scapegoats. For such a big incident in Sicily, the royal family will definitely be held accountable. Although the punishment will not be too heavy, the Brook family There will definitely be a lot of benefits, or the loss of rights. But if you find a few to send it up for the dead ghost, the result may be much better, so he came to us."
"Why us?" Emma asked.
Liang Lidong looked at the damaged buildings on both sides of the road, and continued: "This is a strange place. There are so many professionals in Sicily, why did they come to us? Besides, we haven't been here for a few days."
Emma frowned very cutely, because she used to be good at prophecy, and when she encountered any strange things, she could just use prophecy to see it, but it can't be done now, because since she met Liang Lidong, what she saw The prophecy becomes messed up and doesn't make any sense anymore.
Moreover, she is really not very good at trying to figure out people's hearts.
After thinking for a while, Emma gave up, because she found that she had no other special abilities except divination and magic.
"If only my prophecy could still be used." Emma sighed, but soon she shook her head: "Or it's better like this, it's a predetermined fate, it's too sad."
"But I have a guess." Liang Lidong said suddenly: "Do you still remember those men in black who chased and killed you?"
Emma was taken aback: "You mean, they came here?"
"Very likely." Liang Lidong nodded: "I really can't think of anyone else who would intentionally frame us apart from them! Although the Coburn family can deal with the Taut family, I don't think they have the guts to mess with us. "
"Have you chased me so soon?" Emma was a little helpless.
"I'm just saying it's possible."
Emma let out a breath suddenly. She actually liked the life of the past few days. It was peaceful and stable. She almost thought that her life would be like this in the future, but Liang Lidong's guess reminded her that the demon god was about to wake up, and they had to kill Only by defeating the demon god can world peace be maintained.
Although the prophecy is no longer effective, Emma still regards killing the demon god as her first mission.
The two returned to Taut Manor. Kyle and Alice hadn't come back yet, but with their current abilities, as long as they didn't deliberately die, some ordinary mercenary missions would definitely not trouble them.
After Emma returned to the villa, she immediately went to prepare lunch with Julie. After all, she felt that she was also a girl, and she couldn't keep letting a man like Beta cook.
Liang Lidong returned to his room, and had just made a few scrolls when there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
Joshua walked in from the door, because the curse of karma disappeared, and under the healing of hydrotherapy, the abscess on his body healed extremely quickly. Now the abscess on his face has begun to scab, and some have even begun to fall off. You can barely see the shape of your face.
"Teacher!" Because Joshua is Kyle's canonized second-class knight, he also imitated what Kyle called Liang Lidong.
"What's the matter?" Liang Lidong put down the scroll in his hand and looked at him.
Although Joshua looked very strong, and his will to survive was not bad, but it was just a shell, and he was supported by a feeling of unwillingness. Liang Lidong could feel a deep sense of inferiority in this little guy's heart.
For a person with low self-esteem, he must make him feel that he is valued, otherwise it is easy to get into a dead end, and thus become depressed, or even go astray.
"Kyle said, you can teach me fighting skills." Joshua's tone was a little timid, as if he was afraid that Liang Lidong would refuse: "I don't want to be bullied like this anymore, so I want to become stronger."
Joshua himself is a professional, Liang Lidong found that he has good talent, coupled with the attribute correction and growth brought by the inferior knight, although his ability is not as good as Kyle, the real hero, but he is better than ordinary professionals Out a lot, a lot.
"So what do you think about your future?"
"I heard that Kyle not only learned swordsmanship, but also a special magic that can attach flames to the sword." Joshua said with bright eyes: "I also want to become like him, proficient in both swordsmanship and magic." Talents."
Liang Lidong smiled and said: "Let me declare in advance that even I don't know Kyle's special magic. It is his bloodline ability. He is indeed a member of the magic swordsman, but his profession is more advanced. , the brave."
"Brave?" Joshua's eyes widened.
Almost everyone has heard the word brave in their childhood. Since human beings have written records, human beings have experienced at least a dozen crises of extinction, and each time the person who saved human beings and the world is a brave man.
Joshua couldn't believe the words he heard: "The brave man in the legend?"
"It's the legendary brave man." Liang Lidong shrugged: "To be honest, I was quite surprised at first, after all, this is already in the category of legend, but only the brave man who saved the world can be truly called a brave man, otherwise it can only be called a brave man." The brave stand by."
"But it's surprising enough." Joshua suddenly looked at Liang Lidong excitedly: "Teacher, you are the mentor of the brave, so you must be the legendary sage who is responsible for guiding the brave."
"The sage guides the brave to kill the demon god, but I am a little different." Liang Lidong chuckled: "I have other purposes. So I can't be called a sage. Let's not talk about the brave. Now, let’s continue the topic just now, you said you want to become a magic swordsman, in fact, this idea is very good, and it suits you very well, but I want to know, why do you want to become a magic swordsman! Instead of other professions?"
Joshua was silent for a while: "Because she is also a magic swordsman!"
"Oh, your fiancée?"
Joshua nodded, with a strange light in his eyes: "I want to stand in front of her again, and be stronger than her, and then tell her that I am more talented than her, and I am more capable than her , I am not trash, she is!"
Liang Lidong's face was slightly moved. He felt a strange oppressive force just now. Although it didn't affect him, it did exist... He opened the system and found a special prompt in the system: Suffering from Wang Ba's momentum, the will test immunity passed , the momentum fails! (.)
