The Golden Triangle at the junction of Merlin, Perre, and the Holy Empire, the Three Regardless Zone, the Golden Cave for thieves and bandits, and the paradise for villains.

A young traveler walked on the road tamped by dirt.

He was in a hurry, his white clothes had been dyed pale yellow by the dust of the road, and the calves of his boots and the hem of his robe were covered with mud.

Walking into the gathering place surrounded by tall logs, he pushed open the half-cut wooden door.

The hustle and bustle in the tavern had already been silent as early as his calves appeared in the lower half of the doorway, which was not covered by a wooden door.

The thieves and bandits gathered in this gathering place looked at this strange face that suddenly appeared in the Sanzhi area with an indifferent eye.

The lone young traveler has a pair of gray-blue eyes, transparent and clear pupils have a kind of sincerity that is not contaminated with dust, he looks like a wolf on the outside, but he can't hide the civilization and cultivation from the orderly society, and is incompatible with this bandit who exchanges blood and life for tomorrow, does all kinds of evil, and specializes in destroying the normal social order.

The hideous faces in the tavern express their malice towards the young travelers with their steel needle-like gazes.

I don't know why, although there is only one young man, the sensitive nerves cultivated by those villains in licking blood from the knife all day long make them feel the slightest danger contained in this young man's body, and it is precisely because of this vague intuition that the young man appeared at the door for so long, and the villains only expressed their hostility with their eyes, but none of them stepped forward.

But young travelers don't seem to feel this malice.

He walked around the inn, and saw the stool made of wine barrels, the patched bar, and the tavern owner behind the bar who used to beat him three times a day and add food when drunk, and his eyes showed a different kind of nostalgia:

"It's been three years, and since I embarked on the path of piety, I didn't expect that one day I would return to this devil's land."

"Hey. In that case, then you should stay here forever! ”

Although I felt the strangeness of this young man appearing here alone through the outer edge of the Golden Triangle, these bandits were a group of guys who didn't take other people's lives seriously, and they didn't take their own lives seriously, and a person sitting not far from the door smiled fiercely.

As soon as the voice fell, there was a bang, and the tavern instantly turned over the stool!

The bandits of the entire tavern instantly drew their knives and axes, and even the boss standing behind the bar took out a bloodstained one-sided axe from under the table, and smiled with a twisted face. The heavy cup in his hand, mixed with countless table leg wine barrels, and the wine that is easiest to type into the eyes during the fight, flew towards the youth in an instant!

The young man smiled slightly, did not retreat, took a step into the tavern, and gently closed the door.

“…… God says that all who fall into unbelief should be punished - for the name of the Son who has been blasphemed. I condemn you to the great sins, and I will ...... Make atonement for your sins. ”

The young man turned a blind eye to the sharp blade of the hard object that had smashed into his body, and the thick and blunt blade slashed deep into his body, and not even a drop of blood came out.

The young man touched his stomach and showed a sincere smile, "It hurts a little, and there are ...... I am hungry. ”

……

Half a day later, a group of bandits who had returned from the robbery saw thick black smoke rising from the sky above the gathering place from a distance.

By the time they arrived, the entire town was gone. Most of the gathering place had already been set on fire. No one escaped in the firelight.

It wasn't until dawn the next day, when the fire was extinguished, that the bandits entered the town to search for it.

They strangely found the captured slaves under the largest cellar in the town, and the goods in the ruins were not passive except for the burned, only the bandits in the whole town evaporated.

Does this have an impact on bandits in the Golden Triangle? Of course not.

The robbers gladly took over the land and the wealth that remained on it. Soon a town was again built in its place, and the gathering place that had been destroyed in the light of the fire and the vicious bandits who had stood out were soon forgotten.

……

Dozens of miles away, the youth was walking in the direction of Rocky Mountain.

He dragged a string of bloody left ears in his hand, and the ears of various sizes were crossed by a straw rope, which unconsciously decreased as the young man walked, and then reduced to nearly half. The young man seemed to realize that the weight was wrong.

When he looked back, a detached hyena followed him not far away. Secretly eating the bloody ears that fell to the ground.

Seeing the young man turn around, the hyena whined uneasily and stepped back a few feet.

"You like to eat too? Hungry? ”

When the young man saw that it was a young hyena with a thin belly that almost drooped to the ground, he smiled slightly and threw the straw rope in his hand, "I'll give it to you." ”

From the hyena, he seemed to see his former self, his stomach seemed to be never full, as if there was an invincible hole hidden in his stomach, every day was reincarnated between hunger and semi-starvation, from the age of four or five, his life was full of the beatings and ridicule of those bandits, and in the foreseeable future, he would also become a member of the bandits.

Until one day, he got a large piece of sausage and cheese, and the young man who gave him sausage and cheese spread the seeds of faith to him.

The hyena drooled, turned uneasily for a while, and when he saw the young man walking away, he immediately rushed forward with red eyes, grabbed the string of ears and chewed hard.

At this moment, when Lin An, who was far away in the Lop Nur Pass, shot an arrow that killed the ** division, the young holy son also suddenly stopped, his delicate face became hazy, and a white cross flashed in his pupils, and he said fiercely:

"Heretics!"

***

The black and white beetle was pierced in the middle, and a graceful hand picked it up from its torn robes.

"It turned out to be a stand-in bug, no wonder...... It's a pity that he died before he was fully cultivated. ”

The stand-in is different from the stand-in puppet, which replaces the deadly attack of curses and energy, while the stand-in insect replaces the flesh:

Like this stand-in insect, although it has only been half-cultivated by Soros, it can already replace the deadly attacks of some physical weaknesses such as the head and heart, and Soros was hit in the head by Titi before, and it was because of this stand-in that he was completely unharmed.

If the stand-in worm is fully cultivated, even if Soros's entire body is crushed and scattered, he will still be able to regenerate.

If Lin An hadn't chosen the arrow of life, a trick of pure energy and restraint this time, and found this stand-in insect with one stone, it would not have been so easy for Soros to be killed.

After careful inspection. Lin An picks up the loot left behind by Soros's death.

Among them, the enchanted equipment worn by Soros, after his death, began to lose mana, and even the equipment material was reduced by more than one quality, Lin An estimated that this may be due to the restraint of the attribute of the arrow of life, a little heartache, but helpless:

After all, the first attempt to kill a ** division, even if there is Titi and the Shadow Lynx Sweep Array. Lin An didn't have much confidence in his heart, so that the other party would escape and become a serious hidden danger, Lin An racked his brains in order to be able to kill with one blow, where could he care about the equipment on the other party.

The process of killing Soros was thrilling, and when it came time to loot the loot, it was natural that his heart would begin to break.

The robe and other equipment could not be used, but Lin An still casually threw them into the space:

There are no bystanders to witness the killing of Soros this time, it is better to hide this matter and make a fortune in silence, and Lin An will not leave any traces and clues to follow. Let the people concerned find their heads

Fortunately, space equipment is often the most stable, because of the danger of space, all the alchemists who make space equipment try their best to keep the most stable structure that can be recycled, and Soros's space ring is not damaged at all, after Lin An erased his spiritual imprint, he looked inside.

"Wow, rich man! Titi, we're rich! ”

Titi likes to get together with Lin An at all times, and she also squatted aside and stared curiously at the space ring in Lin An's hand.

At this time, seeing that Lin An was happy, a low gurgling sound came out of his throat. It's like the sound of pleasure in the throat of a shadow lynx basking in the sun as it flips its belly. also took the opportunity to hug Lin An, rubbed his head hard, and then quickly put it down, jumping away like lightning, leaving a string of smug hehehes laughter.

"Titi!"

Lin An was almost knocked to the ground by his big head!

But she was glad that this time she indulged him and did not correct his expression. Standing up and rubbing the back that was aching from the armor on Titi's body, and after transferring the materials in the Soros Space Ring to his own space, he went through things like the Codex Book, which was relatively small in volume than the materials.

"It turned out to be Perret's 'Eye of the Abyss', who had been famous for a long time, and he was famous for his murder, but he didn't expect to run to the northern foot of the Rocky Mountains alone......"

Lin An learned the identity of Soros from some of the records in those codex and the inscription on the title page,

"Oh. It turned out that he came to collect materials on purpose, no wonder. There are not a few pieces of equipment in the space, there are a lot of materials, and Rocky Mountain is indeed a natural material production area, but the strength of this ** division is also extraordinary, and he is very good at finding and collecting resources. ”

At the level of the first division, the materials they need are often not easy to see in the market, in addition to the perennial acquisition and accumulation, they can only go to the production area to find or cultivate themselves.

This "Eye of the Abyss" is a free mercenary, and his experience is also a legend, he has a bad reputation, he has killed a golden sword master of the same level, and he is also quite good at collecting money and collecting materials, and he is also a very famous powerhouse in Perre, of course, this fame will not be a good reputation.

However, this master is a typical battle mage, not good at magic research, is over four hundred years old, has encountered a bottleneck in recent years, the magic power has long been abundant, and the spiritual power is still far from being realized, plus due to some injuries in his early years, he estimated in the codex that his life expectancy is likely not to be even fifty years.

He is also a lonely person, he offended too many people in his early years, and he has no close friends:

The stronger a person like this who lives to the end, the more psychologically perverted he becomes, and Lin An estimates that he can easily make Soros's feelings out of control, which is also related to his unstable mood.

Speaking of which, this strong man died quite unjustly.

Although it is foreseeable that he will not show mercy to Lin An, in fact, Soros did not have time to hurt the people on Lin An's side, the reason why Lin An was bent on putting him to death was on the one hand to protect himself and strike first, and on the other hand, he was also worried about what he would see - to be guilty, even if Soros did not know the problem of the kingdom of God, he would definitely be able to affirm the importance of the crystallization of divine power.

For example, Lin An shot the arrow of life just now, using an oak seed that grew from her oak branch:

Her oak branches absorbed three divine power crystals to produce three hundred and thirty-three oak seeds, which contained enough vitality to resurrect the dying with full blood in an instant, and even prolong the life of the naturally aging for a year and a half, far from being comparable to the thousands of oak seeds on the oak tree that were fought for by those mercenaries.

Lin An also discovered at this time that even in the deep mountains and forests, she had used the power of nature to the limit. It is far from being compared with the inside of the Kingdom of God, if she is asked to purify so much anger in the Kingdom of God now, the few days spent in the Kingdom of God will rise at least a hundred times when she goes outside.

Of course, with the oak seeds that grew after absorbing the crystallization of divine power, Lin An would not be so constrained in using the natural divine technique.

But the oak tree seeds are obviously limited, and in just half a day after leaving the kingdom of God, Lin An used three:

Two of them were high-grade seeds that grew from the branches of the oak tree that absorbed three divine power crystals. One is a second-class seed that grows after absorbing a divine power crystallization from the valley oak tree, but with such a rapid consumption rate, Lin An can already foresee the future of saving "seeds" in the future.

Thinking that Titi only used to casually find some resentment and anger to absorb and store, otherwise his own talent could transform the power of nature, and he could completely use magic at will, Lin An had to admit that Titi was indeed someone's own son, and the treatment that came with his own light was really worlds apart.

Lin An now has a strong "sense of energy crisis", thinking of the oak tree, hurry back. Sure enough, it didn't take long for the oak tree to bear some oak seeds in bits and pieces.

But obviously, the energy of the divine power crystallization absorbed by the oak tree has been exhausted, and the seeds produced this time are not as many as last time, and most of the rest of the energy is used to supply the oak tree to grow, otherwise it would not have made the oak tree, which was originally only three or four feet high, become the waist of four or five adult men in an instant, and the tree cover almost covered one-third of the valley.

Lin An still collected those oak seeds, counting more than a thousand, about a quarter of the last time. The front and back add up. There are about five thousand seeds of this lower energy oak tree.

Lin An felt that she had plenty of money for the time being, because she could use the low-level divine technique on her own, and the intermediate divine technique needed to rely on inferior seeds, and the high-level divine technique that saved the dead and helped the wounded like the arrow of life was not always used.

Lin An tossed around here for a while, and Titi and the Shadow Lynx were not idle, and the two of them ran around in the valley. To absorb the remnants of soul power and resentment everywhere.

After a while, the woods were all in sight, and sprang out from among the leaves, followed by a man, and the Shadow Lynx followed suit, holding its horns against the latter, and staring at him.

The forest is Lin An's eyes, and Lin An doesn't have to look back. I knew who the extra person was, and the other party had been hiding on the edge of the other side of the valley. I didn't see the scene of Lin An shooting Soros.

It's just that Lin An and Titi wandered in the valley unharmed, and they didn't see the arrogant and domineering ** master appear, as long as anyone with brains guessed the ending.

"You're not gone yet?" Lin An looked at Amani.

"I asked John to take His Highness away, and told him that I used the phantom to lure away the master, John was worried about your safety, and I entrusted His Highness to safety, of course he would not agree to flee separately with me." Amani explained the reason for John's absence.

In fact, of course he knew what Lin An really wanted to know, and he had already guessed the fate of that ** division, seeing that Lin An nodded noncommittally, he was shocked by the strength of Lin An and the others, took a deep breath, and then made up his mind:

"I won't say anything about the process of the hedron being taken, let alone tell His Highness - I don't want him to absorb the hedron."

Lin An remained silent.

Regarding this, Amani has made it obvious at the critical time that he took the initiative to plant this black cauldron on Soros, and in fact, it was the Shadow Lynx who was seen and chased by Soros on the spot after taking the spar.

"Actually, looking back now, I really think that I was so dizzy that I did such a thing at such a dangerous juncture—but now that I think about it, all the excuses are false, and the real reason is that I don't want Your Highness to absorb that hedron.

And even now, I would like to ask you not to return that spar, as long as we speak in unison, Your Highness will not know the truth. ”

"Do you know what that hedron means to Byron?" Lin An said slowly.

"It has a heavy meaning to His Highness Byron, but doesn't it to you?" Amani said slyly.

Flutter.

Lin An smiled, like a spring flower blooming, "Yes, I don't have the habit of spitting out what I swallowed." ”

The shadow lynx roared lowly.

Amani's face didn't change much, but he was visibly relieved, and the smile in his eyes became sincere. Looking at that huge pitch-black demonic beast is particularly pleasing to the eye.

"However, I'm curious about your motives, you don't look like a spy sent by someone else, and if you want to kill Byron, you should have had a lot of chances before." Lin An said.

"Allegiance to a prince is completely different from allegiance to a majesty, especially for an organization like ours that hides in the shadows and cannot see the light." Amani said after a pause.

Lin An understood. If she were Amani, she would have made the same choice, after all, judging from the two conversations with Amani, he has deep feelings for the organization behind him.

"If you want to go out independently, it shouldn't be difficult for you to have the hundreds of thousands of gold rego that you brought back last time." Lin Andao.

"It's not that simple, you underestimate our Highness......" Amani didn't continue, and hooked his lips, "and. The loyalty of the boss is very high, he is the father of all of us, not to mention, if there is a choice, I do not want to betray His Highness. ”

Having said that, as far as Amani is concerned, it is already rare to be honest.

Lin An's perception of Amani is not bad, he values love and understands current affairs, there is no lack of sleek and powerful, and the "father" who can train such a child is certainly not a simple character. And to be able to get such a man to be loyal to Byron. Of course, it is not simpler than Lin An imagined.

Thinking of this, Lin An opened his mouth to untie Amani's heart knot:

"Actually, you don't have to hide about the hedron, because what you did is not a bad thing, although Byron did not completely absorb the spar, he had already absorbed half of it, if you didn't do that at that time. Byron may be dead by now...... Well, not because of that ** division, but because of that spar. ”

Lin An raised his chin at the Shadow Lynx, which had grown longer horns after absorbing half of the divine power crystals, and a piece of swarthy bone armor had grown on his face, which looked more and more hideous:

"That hedron is for them, I can't use it. And it's also uncertain about Byron's effect after absorption, but it's certain. He estimated that he would not be able to absorb a single spadrome, and if he could accommodate it, that hedron would soon be able to integrate into his body, and it would not be so difficult. ”

If Byron had continued to absorb at that time, he would probably have exploded in the end—even a mild force of life could make people explode, not to mention an even more violent finishing force.

So in fact, the appearance of the Shadow Lynx saved Byron's life, and Amani's later actions turned Soros's attention to the Shadow Lynx, a kind of Cheng dù, Byron should thank the Shadow Lynx and Amani.

Amani paled, "Then Your Highness ......!" ”

"I can only wish him good luck, but since he didn't die on the spot, it shouldn't be a big problem." Lin An said soothingly.

***

Late at night, a campsite on the outskirts of the Lop Nur Pass.

Several bonfires were blazing, and the people in the camp were divided into several groups, secretly on guard, and while they pricked up their ears, quietly listening to the news coming from the mountains.

In the deep jungle, a pair of orange-sized beast pupils lit up, and a mercenary sitting by the fire swept in a blink of an eye, and the afterglow was inadvertently swept over, and the hair stood on end, and he subconsciously held the weapon in his hand.

The mercenary made a grunt in his throat and wanted to jump up to send a warning signal, but under the pair of cold beast pupils, the mercenary only felt that as long as he moved his fingers, the next second was in a different place, and the bloody nature of the mercenary who licked the blood from the knife edge even dared to resist the blade in his career was completely unable to puff up under the pair of beast pupils.

As if the giant beast that melted into the night slowly walked out of the shadows, and then three figures of different heights appeared, looking at the distance between them and the giant beast, the mercenary realized that the giant beast had a master, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he found that his whole body was soaked in cold sweat.

The people in the camp also noticed the arrival of the three people and one beast, but it was only the giant beast that had quieted down the entire camp, not to mention that as the three of them walked in, everyone smelled the rich blood, and it was obvious that there was a person who didn't have long eyes just now, and hit their knife edge.

"It's not far from the exit of the mountain pass, and this camp is often manned, usually mainly to pick up companions and pass on news;

When the situation arises in the past few days, those large mercenary groups will still leave some people here, guarding here, and looting those lucky ones who have made a good harvest and left the mountains - of course, those who remain here now are ordinary goods, and the real elites should all enter the mountains, because although this road is the most commonly taken, if you are familiar with the terrain, this is not the only way to go. ”

Amani is very familiar with the Lop Nur Pass, and as soon as he saw the situation in the camp, he introduced to Lin An, his voice was not lowered, and he heard the eyes of those guys nearby flickering, and they all turned their eyes away, and shouted in their hearts:

"Big brother, none of you are good at stubble! But you come out of the mountain without any messy hair, and we will not dare to rob you! ”

"Passing on the message? That's right," said a soft female voice that couldn't say anything nice, "and whoever is the most well-informed in this camp, call him over." ”

(To be continued)

Thank you Zhang Ga for your big reward, and the big pink ticket for Snow Dance! o(n_n)o~

I accidentally wrote the Holy Son perverted again......

Okay, this quest is over, and it's time to go back to farming Odin and brushing the emperor.
