Chapter 90: The Grapevine
A luxurious oak table.
Xing Jie is very familiar with this table, which is said to have been carefully crafted by the Italian master Amideo two hundred years ago, and the craftsmanship is outstanding. The structure is simple, the lines are smooth, the colors are rich, and when you look at it, you can feel luxurious and elegant.
Of course, this table is also very fond of our dear Pope.
But now?
It ended up being hammered in two by the Pope's punch.
This is the wrath of thunder.
Xing Jie had never seen a pope who had always maintained a gentle smile, who was always gentle and elegant, and who claimed to be the spokesman of the gods, be furious to such an extent.
What is hard for those believers to imagine is that such a white-haired, harmless-looking old man, who can even be said to be gentle and smiling, can be so violent.
However, Xing Jie certainly knew in his heart that this old man was the commander of the ascetic soldier regiment back then. Now that he is the boss of this group, it is not enough to cater to the spirit of the boss, the key is to have a big fist and a ruthless attack.
Although the Taoguang cultivation in the past few years has made the whole person much gentler. It's just that it's all superficial work, have you ever seen an old man in his sixties take off his clothes and have a legacy stick in his hand that makes it look like a poisonous dragon?
Even Basan, a righteous and bright heads-up, is just a tie with the Pope. And when it comes to those unsightly little tricks in the fight? Basang may really not be able to compare.
After all, ascetics, that's the ace army of the Holy See. Don't say that the Holy See is all about teaching people to be good, just look at the Crusades to understand, it is also a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Dear Jie, I'm sorry, I let you see the joke of the Holy See, you can think that I, an old man, have done my best, and this time I owe you a personal favor. ”
"Your Majesty, why are you and me so polite? If I really can't leave, I'll send you directly. It's too busy here, so you might as well send a henchman to take it away, and this thing is a problem for me. ”
"I trust you, and I'm not in a hurry, so I'll put you there first. When you're done digging there, you'll come to me as a guest. Some time ago I discovered a private wine cellar of the previous Pope, and there were a lot of good things in it. ”
"That's great, I'll be sure to visit you then. ”
Xing Jie said with a grin, his eyes shining with excitement. But after the video was turned off, he smashed the wine bottle in his hand to the ground all of a sudden. His face was pale, and the light in his eyes became extremely ruthless.
"This old thing really wants to kill me, right?!"
"It's inevitable that interests will move. ”
"Aunt, don't blame me for being ruthless when it comes to this, it's been a few times, and if it goes on like this, I'm afraid I'll really be killed!"
"Then I'll leave this thing to you, let's take it out in the open, and then ask Zayd and Clint Columer to put this thing in their hands** and study it." ”
"Of course, from now on, we don't have anything to do with this thing. ”
A few people in the room were laughing, and the whole thing was cleaned up while talking and laughing. However, since the other party's plan has already been used, how can it be so simple? But since the other party dares to do this and stuff it into his arms, then there is absolutely a way to prove that he has this thing!
Everyone is very aware of this.
But this is the easiest way to do it, unless you get your hands on Adams' video footage. However, it is really difficult to do this. After all, this is something that involves the life of his family, how could Adams, an old and cunning guy, not keep a hand?
What's more, when Xing Jie's arms were stuffed into this little horn, he had already fallen into that trap.
As for what this pit is for?
Xing Jie couldn't figure it out for a while, but since it was a horn, it should be a sounder. Could it be the Artifact Charge, once you blow your own forces, you will be added to all kinds of protagonist halos?
But if it's really such a terrible thing, will it fall into your own hands?
One wrong step, one wrong step.
Adams deliberately showed the horn in front of Xing Jie, in order to bring Xing Jie to the pit. So far, it seems that most of their ploy has been successful.
……
"Brother Jie, Zaid's troops have withdrawn, and they have suffered heavy losses. ”
"Do you really think that the defense of that place is just a fighting creature? It wasn't so much that the fighting creatures were defending the sacred tree, but that the sacred tree was the main battle weapon. Didn't you see those branches, which looked artistic and elegant, but the ends were very sharp? I even doubt that this sacred tree has the power of Sabah!"
"You mean there's a giant Sabah that's over 200 meters tall, isn't that terrifying? But this tree doesn't look like the real Sabah at all. ”
"I'm just skeptical. Let's go over and take a look. With those soldiers to go to the mines for us, tsk, this Zaid is really a living **!"
Two full companies entered, but less than 70 escaped.
It is indeed admirable to be able to take the corpses of their brothers with them while fleeing for their lives, but the injuries on themselves and the corpses they brought back look a little strange. Tearing or scratching from combat creatures is rare, and many of the remaining injuries are inflicted with sabers or bullets.
Xing Jie glanced at Basang strangely, but found that the other party's eyes were also confused. If it's just a bullet, it's understandable that it could be that a combat creature suddenly rushed into the team and shot in a panic, which is normal. But the saber wound can't be said, the knife stabbed in the vital place of the brothers, this can't be said.
"Soldier, give me your recorder and tell me what happened. ”
"Sir, we can't explain what really happened. It can only be said that at that time, after we fought bravely to kill the enemy, we found that we killed our own people!"
When Xing Jie heard this, he also felt helpless.
Maze?
But the road they entered should be the road where Xing Jie and the others were lying, and there were no maze pictures and texts found on that road.
Seeing that the young warrior was basically on the verge of collapse, Xing Jie didn't have a good way to do it, so he could only gently press it on his neck to make him unconscious.
"Let him sleep well, if there is any soothing medicine for him to take a little bit, and then find him a better counselor, then his nerves will collapse. Xing Jie said to another veteran.
"Thank you for your concern. If you can help us get revenge, that would be the best comfort to us. The veteran said.
Xing Jie nodded helplessly, take revenge? How difficult it is to break into the ruins this time, who doesn't know the leaders here? Moreover, it is very likely that the final result is that this ruins are sealed!
"By the way, we met 'Zhenny' there this time, and we hope it will help you. The veteran turned and left. But Xing Jie was a little confused?
Zhenny?
Isn't that what elves mean in the Green Cult? Meets elves? What's going on?
