Volume 2 The Call of Fate Chapter 40 Conflict
In the middle of the Byzantine Empire, there was an extremely rich alluvial plain called the Flowing Fat Plain.
With a vast area, dense water networks and rivers, the Flowing Fat Plain is a famous land of fish and rice in Byzantium. Just from its name, 'Flowing Fat', you can see how fertile the land is. Although not far west of the Fat Plain is a terrifying forest, the Demon Forest, one of the three most murderous places on the continent, which often faces the nuisance of monsters rushing out of the Demon Forest, the Byzantine Empire still built a large number of cities on this anointed land. It was the richest region of the Byzantine Empire.
Cataloland, the largest city of the Byzantine Empire and the political, cultural, and economic center of the Empire, is located in the eastern part of the Roughease Plain.
One of the brightest jewels of the Byzantine Empire, Catalan is known throughout the continent for its prosperity.
However, no matter how prosperous a place is, there will always be dark corners.
Green Jade Bar, a high-grade Fengyue place in the eastern part of Cataloland. In the dim light of the bar lobby, a few heavily dressed women walked between the tables like butterflies in flowers, teasing the men around them from time to time.
Daniels squinted at the vicious mercenary men in front of him, but his hands were not free at all, constantly kneading and patting the two plump and straight buttocks sitting on his lap.
"Sweetheart, be honest!" Lisa laughed and straightened up to sit on Daniels' lap, standing quietly beside him.
Daniels freed his hand, lazily picked up a glass of inferior tequila from the table, and leisurely tasted it, still not seemingly bothering the few big men in front of him.
"Stinky boy, you'd better get acquainted, as long as you give the bitch next to you to Lao Tzu tonight, Lao Tzu will let you leave here safely. One of the lead mercenaries said rudely.
With that, he looked at Lisa standing next to Daniels with bright eyes, and let out a lewd laugh.
Lisa was still smiling amoryly, but there was a hint of anger in her eyes.
The men and women in the bar all looked at this side excitedly, and the impending violence triggered a bad habit of people who wanted to join in the fun.
"Oh, what did you say?" asked Daniels, as if he hadn't heard the big man, shaking the wine glass in his hand.
Lao Tzu said....... Before the mercenary leader could finish speaking, he only felt a flower in front of him, and the wine glass in Daniels' hand had already bloomed on his forehead. The leader of the mercenaries screamed miserably, and subconsciously reached out to touch his forehead. Suddenly, he felt a great pain in his lower body, and he couldn't help but let out an even more terrible howl, and immediately fell to the ground, and the hands stretched out to his forehead temporarily changed direction, and he clenched his lower body desperately. Blood trickled down his forehead with the wine, and the pain in his forehead made him want to reach out and cover it, but the greater pain in his lower body made it impossible for him to let go of his hand. The leader of the mercenaries rolled on the ground in agony, screaming like a pig.
The sudden change made several of his subordinates behind the mercenary leader not react for a while. When they determined after a moment that their boss had been scrapped to the ground by someone else, they roared angrily and pulled out the weapon they were wearing, and pounced on them in a swarm.
Daniels sneered, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he quickly pulled out the saber he placed on the wine table beside him with his backhand, and with a white light, he quickly met the oncoming sword.
After a burst of "dang, dang, dang", several mercenaries looked at each other at the remaining half of the sword in their hands, and before they could react, another white light swept through, and the half of the weapon in their hands fell neatly to the ground together with the palm holding the weapon.
"Ah, my hands. Several mercenaries screamed at the same time as they looked at their broken wrists, almost fainting in pain.
"With this bit of strength, you still come to rob me of women? Count yourself lucky today, Uncle doesn't want to open a killing ring, leaving you a dog's life. A sneer appeared at the corner of Daniels' mouth, and he took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom and gently wiped his sword. He didn't even stand up during the fight with these mercenaries.
Looking at the man in front of him, who was as cold as ice, several injured mercenaries involuntarily took a few steps back.
"Who are you, do you know who we are?" asked an older mercenary in horror, the sharp pain from his broken wrist causing cold sweat to break out on his forehead.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in who you are. Daniels glanced at the mercenary contemptuously, ignored him, unsheathed his sword, stood up, grabbed the bottle of inferior tequila on the table with one hand, and took Lisa in the other hand and walked towards a cabin behind the bar.
The older mercenary watched Daniels disappear with hatred, and after briefly bandaging the wounds with several other mercenaries, he picked up the mercenary leader, who had no strength to roll on the ground anymore, and only half a breath left, and fled out of the Green Jade Bar in embarrassment.
What was thought to be just a very ordinary fight for a woman turned into a bloody conflict, which reduced the number of customers in the bar by more than half. The remaining guests, who were both bold and curious, exchanged their heads and talked about the origins of both sides.
"Do you see the sign on their chests? Those mercenaries seem to be mercenaries of the Vulture Mercenary Regiment, and their faces are so embarrassed. ”
"Vulture Mercenary Group, I heard that there seem to be a lot of people in that mercenary group, and it seems to be ranked in the top fifty miles in the Imperial Mercenary Union, but I didn't expect that a few people from the Vulture Mercenary Group would be planted in the hands of a young boy this time. ”
"By the way, who is that young man? I see that he is good, but he is too ruthless. ”
Just as people were babbling about Nick's origins, a middle-aged fat man with two mustaches suddenly said, "Hehe, I once met him at a nobleman's banquet." ”
"He's a nobleman?" In the bar, a young man named John was obviously a little surprised, because nobles usually don't go out to such low-grade bars, and he asked the fat man suspiciously, "Are you telling the truth?
"Ahem, ahem," said the fat man, obviously embarrassed, "Lord River Earns once sent two hundred pounds of pork to his house at a banquet, and I met the young man there. ”
"Deliver pork?" ...... you," John was a little confused.
"Ha, he's Link Griffin, the butcher of the East Quarter, who often supplies meat to the city's nobles and wealthy," someone interjected.
"Oh, that's a pig killer. John understood, he nodded, and continued to ask, "So, which nobleman is that young man?"
"It's not the son of a big aristocratic family, I heard that it's just a broken nobleman from a low-class aristocratic family. Hehe, he dared to have bad intentions towards Miss Robonia, who is known as the first beauty in the imperial capital, it is really cowardly. Link said.
"What? is he?" John couldn't help but slam the glass in his hand on the table with a thud when he heard what Link said.
