Chapter 86 Visitors in Confinement
Feige was kept in confinement, but apart from the fact that he couldn't leave his room, which made it inconvenient to go to the bathroom, he should read books, he should train, tell stories to goblin friends in his spare time, and try to train it in the direction of a priest - it was really no different than being outside.
"The world's martial arts are invincible, only fast and unbreakable - this is a kind of faith. Fei Qi said seriously, and Peng Peng listened very carefully: "If you hit someone with great strength, it hurts, and the strong one is more advantageous than the thin one." The goblins are small in size and suffer in this regard, but they can still recoup some disadvantages with the help of sharp weapons. So, you don't take a wooden stick or something, use a pointed one, such as a dagger or a spear, it's fine, after all, slash and stab to death. The next step is to find the enemy's weak points and attack them as fast as you can. ”
"It turns out that there are so many clever hiss in the truth of the goddess...... The chief hissed!" Friends stared wide-eyed, trying very hard to remember everything. "So how do you get a fast hiss?"
"Keep practicing, repeat it, and proficiency creates speed. Don't you see that I've been practicing mantras all day?" Fei Qi flashed his right arm, and the two runes flashed and extinguished against his skin, emitting a shimmer of light and darkness as his mana worked. "The sixth rune is also about to be completed, and it is all the result of constant training. ”
"What is the purpose of the bright word?"
"For fights. "Feige always finds the easiest way for the goblins to understand. "Listen, footsteps, it's Ramsden coming. ”
After a while, Ramsden was outside the dungeon door. He carried a food basket in one hand and a small bucket in the other. "Wait a minute", he put down his things, rummaged through the key, and opened the heavy iron door.
"Feiqi, this is today's food. Nothing else was brought, because Lord Snowy Owl was still angry. Ramsden handed his things to his friends, and pulled out a book wrapped in cloth from his bosom. "My lord said that you should not meddle in your affairs, stay here honestly, copy this book to the end, experience the teachings of the goddess, fully recognize your mistakes, and make deep reflections. ”
"Did Lord Snowy Owl ask you to memorize this passage?"
Ramsden nodded vigorously, and said with a sad face, "Feige, don't send me to the adults to make demands. Anyway, it's only two weeks, you honestly don't cause trouble, just put up with it. I thought about it, the model leader may be a good thing, but our Ice Peak Fortress is never a bad thing. You're right, if you wanted to be a lord, you wouldn't have come here at all. ”
Actually, I want to be! I just don't want to die...... Feiqi also sighed: "Don't talk about this, what about the rest of the fortress, is there anything interesting happening?"
"No, it's calm, as in the past, I guess everyone will be like this before the Great Prophecy Ceremony. After that, except for me and Kyrie who stayed at the castle, the other monster hunters had to start patrolling. With more people this year, it will definitely be done faster and safer. Giles, Tron and Mom in a group, and Sisina and Witch Mama in a group. Maybe you'll go with Silkna's group. ”
"Perhaps. Feige shook his head. After the Great Prophecy, the Model Leader project will be in full swing, and there must be a lot of things to do at that time, and Monster Hunter's annual patrol will definitely be affected, and the current plan is estimated to not be able to catch up with the changes at that time.
"Oh, here comes Didlet, that elven paladin, Bishop Nathaniel's apprentice, do you remember?"
Feiqi was stunned for a moment: "Why did she come?"
"I don't know. Ramsden bowed his head, snatched a leather bag containing red wine from the goblin's hand, and placed it in Feige's hand. He grimaced at his friends, then found the jar of ale for it. Goblins live underground and have long since adapted to not being exposed to sunlight, while Feige needs to be nourished by the good wine made from fruit.
"Didrite was in a hurry when she came last night. She was not alone, but with seven knights. I think they're all elves and half-elves, riding big horses, and they're well equipped! Sitting in the saddle, their scimitars can touch the ground, but they are almost as light and sharp as long swords in their hands!"
Feige looked at Ramsden's wistful expression and couldn't bear to interrupt him. Elven weapons have always been sophisticated, but it is said that only in the hands of elves can they be used to their greatest power. I remember that I had a collection of elven weapons at home, and when ordinary humans used them, they didn't feel particularly light or sharp.
However, after Ramsden finished talking about the elves' knives and their armor, he began to talk about the elves' mounts. Feige couldn't stand it anymore: "Hey, you haven't told me what Didlight is here for!"
"I don't know. When she arrived, she just said hello to us, and then went to look for Mistress Kiplin. The elves who came with her stayed downstairs, and they did the work for them. I didn't have a chance to eavesdrop!"
"Oh, then it can't be helped. Feige pulled out the cork and drank some of the red wine in his skin. He found the wine to be particularly refreshing and sweet, and its flavor spread from his abdomen to his whole body, and his spirits were uplifted. Although he is not a taster, he can't tell which one it is, but he can taste the concern of his friends. "Thank you for me, the exemplary collar has made everyone worry about it. ”
"It's fine. Tron was angry for a while, but now it's over. Tell me what else you need, and finish the book quickly, so that Master Kiplin doesn't get angry anymore. ”
"Okay, I'll start copying it now. Hurry up and go about your business. Oh, and don't forget to take the bucket with you. ”
Ramsden rolled his eyes and staggered away with the bucket. The door was still open, not that Ramsden had forgotten it, but that it was deliberately open for ventilation, and Fege would consciously close it after a while anyway. The air quality in the dungeon is immediately improved, which can provide a good foundation for meditation and copying.
Probably because of the improved air quality, Mr. Rashden was visited not long after Mr. Ramsden left. Didlet's steps were so light that if she hadn't coughed deliberately, Feige wouldn't have heard her coming.
"Hide. Feige said to his friends.
I remember the time when we hunted the griffons on the cliffs, and that Didrite was very cheerful, always energetic, and very attentive when listening to stories, and was a great travel companion. However, she is a paladin after all, and it is unpredictable what she will do when she sees a goblin. And when she saw her this time, she became much more serious, and the two beautiful curved eyebrows seemed to be closer to the middle, probably caused by too many frowns.
"Yo, your armor and weapons have been replaced with new ones, and they are indeed much more beautiful, no wonder Ramsden always says so. Feige looked the elf up and down, the silver-white breastplate clinging to the elf's body, undisguised or exaggerated her thin curves. Shoulder armor, elbow pads, wrist pads, knee pads and leg guards are all available, and the long sword hangs on the waist, as long as you put on the helmet and you are in a fully armed combat state. Who was she going to fight against? I didn't see her wearing this when I went hunting griffins?
"I'm going to be a model lord, one of them, to be exact. Didrite didn't seem very happy: "Do you know why?"
Feige closed his eyes and thought about it, then said, "You let me guess it's fine, but I told you not to be angry." ”
"You say, I'm not going to be angry. ”
"Because your teacher, Bishop Nathaniel, died, and he was a staunch oppositionist, and then he deliberately made you a lord?I'm just not sure if this was to balance the differences of opinion, or if it was some new plan of the opposition faction that dragged its feet, or simply to roast you on a fire? Hehe, the last one probably wouldn't. ”
"But I'm just roasted on the fire. Didlet's lips trembled, and her eyes turned red, as if she were about to cry. However, she quickly coughed vigorously twice to clear her throat and adjust her emotions. "Feiqi, why are you objecting, aren't you optimistic about the model leader?"
"Di Li, no matter how you feel, you're about to become a lord. There are some things I will say to you now as a friend, but I will not admit them when I go out. ”
"Then tell me quickly!"
"The model collar has a fart. The best outcome is nothing more than a replica of the outer kingdom. Of course, if the goddess asked angels to come to the mortal world to help directly, using powerful divine power to transform, it would be a different matter. People, who have been nurtured by the church for so many years, are still the same people. How much difference can this person make if he is nurtured in the church?"
"Thank you for thinking so too. I've heard from Master Kiprin that you refused to participate in the Great Prophecy Ritual and were locked up, and I know you don't think well of the Model Leader. And...... And what you said is pretty much the same as what Mr. Nathaniel said. ”
"Really, I seem to be a little wise, too :D"
"I knew. When I listen to your story, there is a lot of wisdom in it, and it is not easy to tell it in a popular way. I went to the Tawu Port City University Library to check, and I also asked in the Church Wisdom Engraving Library, but there is no story of "Three Kingdoms", not even a similar one. That's a story you came up with on your own to help me hunt griffons, right?"
"You think too highly of me, I don't have that kind of ability. ”
"Then you just think about it and accumulate it. Didrite took a deep breath and said, "I'm here for help." Teacher Nathaniel did not die of natural causes, but was murdered. ”
"What?" Feige was startled, "I didn't do it!"
"Of course it's not you, don't deliberately make me happy, I can't laugh. The elf shook his head: "When the teacher died, I was out on a mission, but fortunately, I came back early and saw his body." We elves have a long lifespan and are very sensitive to death. I didn't feel right when I saw the teacher's body, his eyes were closed, but he didn't look peaceful, but struggled and suffered. I asked for an examination, but they burned the body anyway. ”
"Didn't you say you thought the Bishop's death was strange?"
"I told the Goddess that she told me to seek wisdom and discover the truth through wisdom. This is my trial, and I think of you. Dedelit put her hand on the hilt of her sword, "Feige Snowman Icepeak, would you like to be my knight and assist me in this trial?"
"I don't want to. "Feige is categorical.
Didrite let go of the hilt of her sword, tears streaming down her face. She wiped it vigorously and sobbed and turned away.
"Wait!We can discuss it again!" Feige poked his head out of the dungeon, "I just wanted to know if you would hack me if I didn't agree." I'm not going to help the people who threaten me. It looks like you're not. ”
