"Is this what I have to do?"
Looking at the invitation in front of him, the little man who had been drinking all night couldn't help rubbing his eyes; then, he immediately pointed at the invitation in front of him helplessly and said, "This should be an invitation from the Northstead family. Right? And you're going to have me and Morrie go on your behalf?"
After seeing Ye Qi nodding his head without hesitation, the little man couldn't help moaning and hugged his head that was already aching. If it was just aching before, it is undoubtedly painful now; Aristocratic banquets, the little man of businessman background is no stranger, and even quite familiar.
In fact, the little man's parents were very keen to take him to those aristocratic banquets; and after the first few novelties passed, the little man was very interested in this kind of men talking about careers, looking for cooperation, and investing in each other. Partners, women compete with each other, children show off each other, and they lose interest in almost boring banquets; after a long period of time, they always come to find various reasons to refuse to participate in these parties. Come to a very enviable banquet.
"Let Morrie go alone, won't you?"
Holding the last bit of hope, the little man looked at his friend—as for Ava and the big man? A taciturn person, a simple and honest one, are not candidates for this kind of banquet at all. Even if they go, they are just acting as the number of people. For such a meaningful banquet, just acting as the number of people is not enough.
Like Ye Qi, the little man understood the hidden meaning almost as soon as he saw the invitation; however, it was precisely because he understood that he didn't want to go even more—whether it was the Northstead family or the Supreme Government, Or the Demon Hunters Guild he represented, the existence of any one of the three would only make the already boring banquet in his memory even more boring; not to mention the three appearing at the same time now.
Therefore, even knowing that it is impossible. The little man couldn't help but hope that there would be a glimmer of hope; however, it was obvious that this glimmer of hope was completely wiped out in the next moment—
"Morrie is not from a demon hunter background, so he can't represent my status as the leader of the demon hunter branch at all!"
Ye Qi smiled lightly and patted his friend on the shoulder. Said: "Ted has sent a personal letter from His Excellency Hessel, we just need to maintain the status quo; therefore, it is very simple, just bear with it! And. With Morrie as an assistant, I believe you It will be so much easier!"
"Of course, if I can, I will go! But before that, I have already been invited!" Looking pitifully at the little man who looked at himself. With a long sigh, Ye Qi gave the most convincing reason: "Leiman invited me to be a notary for the duel between him and Javier! This is what Lehman informed me just now, when I told you to go upstairs The moment before!"
Although this reason was received just before he called the little man up, but in order to escape smoothly, Ye Qi didn't mind abandoning the original excuse and at the same time switching the order of receipt between the two—although Ye Qi Qi very much wants to not shirk his due responsibilities based on his likes and dislikes, but facing this kind of banquet has nothing to do with life and death at all, and it doesn't even have any importance in his eyes. Anyone who goes to the banquet is the same. He still hopes that someone can attend instead of him.
"Lyman and Javier? Javier? Javier? It's Lyons. That blue knight!"
Without knowing the reason, the little man's attention was attracted by the surname that his friend said; for this strange surname, the little man shook his head that was a little heavy due to alcoholism, and meditated for a while. , only to suddenly think of the knight with blue flames all over his body that he saw before; then, he couldn't help shaking his head. Said: "Is that guy really a fool? Facing the murderer who 'killed' himself, he would agree to a duel? With his current strength, he can take revenge easily!"
Obviously, for the Blue Knight who only met once. The impression of the little man is quite good - not only because the other party must do what he says, but also because the other party must do what he says, and saved many demon hunters in the Battle of Saas Port; if the other party did not show up, even The demon hunters wiped out all the existences in those abnormal cemeteries, and it will definitely not be just a dozen people seriously injured like now, and there will definitely be a lot of casualties; even the familiar people who drank with him before A large part of the face will definitely disappear forever, let alone hold any party. I am afraid that a funeral is what they need most.
On the contrary, the little man didn't like the existence of Lehman, who was dressed in the 'skin' of the Holy See's disciplinary knight. Lifting the woman's head, but this does not change the little man's disapproval of Leman's unscrupulous methods.
Perhaps, when certain things happen, he will use unscrupulous means, such as poisoning and assassination, but this definitely does not include using emotions—using emotions to achieve something, even if the purpose is well-intentioned, it will not make everyone cherished The emotional demon hunter agreed; if it wasn't for the fact that the two sides had a common enemy and were temporarily in the same camp, the little man would not even want to contact each other.
"The duel wasn't proposed by Lehmann, it was Lyons!"
Ye Qi shook his head and said - of course he understands what his friend thinks; however, he can't change anything; because, regarding Lehman, he and his friend have the same thoughts; Jia's blood honored the existence of that leader, and he didn't mind slashing his sword at him.
"Lines brought it up? Well, that guy is really hopeless!"
The little man could only roll his eyes for this existence who abided by the terms of the knight even after death—such a principled and almost rigid person, no matter in the past, the present, or the future, is undoubtedly A rare creature; if the facts were not right in front of him, the little man would not believe such an existence.
"When is the duel? It won't happen to be the day when the Northstead family holds a banquet?"
"Of course it's the same day, otherwise, why would I ask you to go to the Northeast family on my behalf?"
Hearing his friend's straightforward answer, especially after knowing that there will be a wonderful duel at the same time, the little man felt even more conflicted about participating in the banquet of the Northstead family, and his head ached—although Lehman's personality The little man disagrees, but the little man agrees with the opponent's strength; except for Ye Qi. The other party is one of the few people he can't see through; it is obviously only a moonlight-level breath, but it gives people another feeling, like looking at flowers in the fog or glass filled with fog. It is impossible to see things in the room in general.
Therefore, even if the Blue Knight already had the strength of the Sun Yao level, the little man didn't think that the opponent would lose so directly that there was no room to fight back; even if the final result, the existence of the Sun Yao level would definitely win. But the process is absolutely wonderful—the Moonlight class faces the Sunshine class, except for special cases, there is no hope of winning at all; this is recognized by the entire Lorant; It's an unclear feeling, but the little man doesn't think that the other party is such a special case; after all. Apart from historical records, he has only met his friend Ye Qi as a multi-abilities user.
"Okay! Okay! But I think it would be more appropriate if Ted would take my place!"
In the end, the little man had no choice but to reluctantly agree to Ye Qi's proposal, but there were still complaints—but. The little man is also very clear. Complaining is just complaining; if the giant man really came to such a meeting on behalf of the Demon Hunter Headquarters; although it is reasonable, I believe that after the banquet, it will be reported that his friend Ye Qi has a disagreement with the Demon Hunter Headquarters Rumors of people being blocked and acting on their behalf.
In this regard, the little man is very sure; especially. The Holy See, which has just suffered a loss, will definitely be happy to see such rumors; and add fuel to the flames—of course. At this moment, the little man who has accepted his friend's proposal has already made up his mind in his heart. It is necessary to draw the black market merchant into the team of demon hunters; after all, compared to his other two friends who do not have to think about it because of their nature, he is very sure that with the ability of the black market merchant, he is undoubtedly very suitable for the job. He will be the best candidate to attend various banquets on behalf of his friends in the future.
"Ted and the others have more important things to do. If you propose, I believe many people including Ted will be happy to change with you!"
"Holy See?!"
The friend's words immediately startled the little man, and then he asked sternly—except for this organization that has been active recently and appeared in front of people from time to time to disgust people, plus the previous five consecutive Sunyao level powerhouses from the other side fell, and A 'defected' fact; other than that, he really couldn't think of any other existence that could make the entire witcher headquarters take action.
"Well, the Holy See is one! After all, no one will sit back and watch their top combat power be wiped out without doing anything!" Ye Qi nodded to admit his friend's guess, and added: "However, other than that, And our old traditional rivals!"
For demon hunters, there are undoubtedly many existences that can be called opponents, such as the Holy See, the supreme government, and various families that have been passed down in name or are directly ignored; ', then there is only one kind of existence—dark creatures!
When the earliest demon hunters appeared, there is no specific record in the Tower of Wisdom at the headquarters of the demon hunters, but when people were invaded by dark creatures, there are clear records—vampires, werewolves, various spirits, Even the harms of dark wizards evolved from human beings and more advanced liches to ordinary human beings have been recorded in books; although due to the passage of time and insufficient descriptions, some Wrong, but mostly correct.
Where there is oppression, there will inevitably be resistance—and those who resist the above-mentioned existences, although they do not have a clear name, the demon hunters of the younger generation still call them the earliest demon hunters, and the existence they resist is the hunter. The traditional opponent of the devils.
"Dark creatures?!"
The little man looked at his friend in astonishment, and when he saw his friend nodded slightly, he immediately started circling around his desk impatiently—although the hypocrisy of the Holy See and the low-key handling of the incident by the highest government made him feel uncomfortable. As a demon hunter, he felt unhappy, but compared to the undisguised killing of dark creatures, the first two are undoubtedly as cute as your daughter.
Blood banquet, human meat feast are the names used by those existences when they held banquets, and most of the time food, dry food, toys or experimental objects are their more specific names for the raw material of human beings—in the place that was stained by blood. In this age, the existence of human beings is undoubtedly at stake; apart from tall and strong castles and groups of well-equipped troops, there is almost no effective way to face those existences; even going to a city a little far away alone is difficult You need to hire guards to ensure your own safety.
And even with tall and strong castles and hordes of well-equipped troops, all human beings are terrified when facing the annual Autumn Hunting—Autumn Hunting. The hunting season after the prey has grown fat; it's just that the original hunting existence of rabbits and ducks has been replaced by humans.
Hordes of vampires, werewolves and spirits. To plunder human beings and destroy cities in a competitive way, and under the attack of hordes of dark creatures, no matter how tall and strong the castle is, there will be times when it is breached, and no amount of well-equipped troops will help— Well-trained ordinary people. With cold weapons such as long swords and spears combined with a strong crossbow, occupying favorable terrain, the chance of winning against dark creatures is hardly more than 50%; and when facing plural dark creatures, even one's own side is plural. But after the advantageous terrain and the advantage of the strong crossbow were weakened, the odds of winning were instantly reduced to less than 10%!
Especially the contagion of panic is enough to praise any well-equipped army; unless there are apostles with special talents or highly skilled fighters, it will make the whole battle situation a little bit variable; otherwise, it will basically be a rout, the difference It's just a matter of time.
It even happened that the entire kingdom was attacked by dark creatures, and then the royal family was looted—this oil painting depicting that time was hung on the first floor of the Tower of Competition, and every demon hunter who entered the Tower of Competition could Behold; layers of flesh are smeared upon the castles of the ruined kingdom. No matter men, women or children. Countless human heads are built like pyramids, from the gate of the castle to the edge of the scroll. Anyone who has seen it knows that it is not the edge or the end, and the dark creatures are cheering and celebrating in such an environment.
All demon hunters who have seen this oil painting and come into contact with dark creatures. There is no doubt that dark creatures are harmful to ordinary human beings—although because of the advent of the free age and the appearance of gunpowder weapons. It made the dark creatures fundamentally cut off from the crazy raging like the bloody age again, but the minions that hide in the shadows from time to time. It is also enough to make all demon hunters more vigilant; after all, dark creatures hiding in the dark are always more dangerous than those exposed to the sun!
Therefore, at no time does the witcher forget their original enemy!
"It's not as serious as you imagined, it's just that several clans of vampires have started to change! After receiving the news, Ted took a few tower guards from the central castle to investigate. I believe the news will come soon! "Ye Qi looked at his friend's impatient look, and immediately explained; however, his expression did not have the slightest sense of relaxation—Ye Qi, who had studied in the headquarters of the Demon Hunter, had of course seen that look that made people unable to move forever after seeing it. The forgotten oil painting; and he absolutely does not want the scene of that oil painting to reappear in any way at any time.
"The Vanjo family? Or the Xitai family?"
"Everyone is involved!"
The friend's answer made the little man frown, and then spat hard.
"It's really an uneasy existence. Isn't the lesson of the war not enough?"
"It's been nearly fifteen years since the last war, and time is the best medicine for healing! Especially when they have hatred in their hearts, it will always make them forget their pain!"
Ye Qi stood in front of the only window in the room, close to the bed, and slowly opened the curtain - this window existed before the renovation, because sunlight and moonlight could directly shine in, and because some experiments may require ventilation ; Therefore, the young witcher was left behind as a teacher.
After opening the curtain, Ye Qi standing in front of the window could clearly see the people on the street relaxing in the sun on Sunday afternoon. The scene in front of him was in sharp contrast with the oil painting hanging in the Tower of Athletics in his memory. Immediately, Ye Qi narrowed his eyes slightly—as a demon hunter, he had the duty to resist those dark creatures; and everything that made him feel comfortable in front of him made his duty more inevitable. determination.
"So, our existence is to make them always remember those pains, and make those pains so severe that their hatred will be wiped out, leaving only trembling!"
