138 Poetry, Angry Mint
On Minte's small balcony, the two had been chatting for nearly two hours, and the tea had already been changed.
Of course, most of the time it was Minter who was talking and Agni was listening.
"After that, there are still a lot of things for those nobles, even Julien and they have been busy all night, and they have hardly been offline in the middle." "Of course we don't have anything to do, so we can have a leisurely cup of tea here." ”
Of course, if you don't go offline for a long time, it will have an impact on the real body, not to mention anything else, the body's excretion needs will be very fatal. Julian: They were really enthusiastic this time.
After all, they are the first player nobles to be officially canonized, and some paperwork, ceremonies, and other affairs are indeed enough for them to be busy.
"Title...... "Blazing muttered, sipping the tea, "it's different." ”
"Isn't it a pity that I didn't witness this kind of scene with my own eyes?" Minter winked at him and teased.
"If I have to say something," Agni said honestly, "after all, I have done a lot of work!" ”
Minter laughed, and then said, "But at the end of the day, in this incident, the aborigines are the protagonists, and the Black Tulip Brigade is just a supporting role. ”
"However, I thought it was just an ordinary task, but I didn't expect that little nobleman to be so big!" Agni said.
"We didn't expect it, but it inadvertently influenced the course of history – that's what Julien told us later." Minter said, "The Knights of the Covenant were formed at the behest of Aethio and are divided into seven parts.
With the giants as shields, humans as swords, dwarves as hammers, and elves as arrows, orcs offered courage, dragonmen brought wisdom, and halflings brought skill.
At that time, the wasteland was still a peaceful land for all races, but the abyss descended, and large swathes of the land fell and became a breeding ground for demons. The Seven Races made a covenant to resist the invasion of the Abyss.
But the evil and depravity brought by the abyss are too powerful, in order not to let people lose the courage to fight, they made a blood oath with the blood of the human commander, as long as this bloodline is still there, then everyone will fight against evil and depravity to the end, and will not lose the will to fight. This is the Knights of the Covenant, and that bloodline is the Balzac family. ”
"And then the Knights of the Covenant still failed, right?" Agni said.
Obviously, the former paradise is long gone, a paradise infested with ghosts and wild beasts, and the Balzac family has almost disappeared in the long river of history. Otherwise, there would not be an epic that re-raises the covenant today.
"Yes, first the castle of the Balzac family was captured, and the Count of Balzac died. The eldest son of the family, the leader of the Knights of the Covenant and the Covenant of the Present day, was leading the Legion in battle at the time, and he refused to inherit the title afterwards, and continued to fight with great grief and indignation. However, the bloodline of the family was either killed in battle or assassinated, and his sons and nephews were all killed and wounded, leaving only the regimental commander alone. He was eventually besieged in the Lonely City, where he fought to the death along with his own guards, the Wasteland Guards.
And the family of Elrios in the past is the only surviving daughter of the head of the Knights of the Covenant. ”
"It's really a touching story." Agni sighed, "The history of the aborigines is fuller than I imagined......"
"Actually, I used to collect some related songbooks, but at the time I just read them as stories. But when I saw all this happening, it was a big shock to me! Minter took out a songbook and handed it to Agni to read.
It was in Dolot, so Agni was able to understand the meaning through the translator.
"The Epic of the Seven Clans ~ The Battle of the Knights of the Covenant"
This is a long poem that tells the story of that year. Agni flipped through it casually, and saw what Minter had just said.
『…… With the giants as shields, humans as swords, dwarves as hammers, and elves as arrows, orcs have offered courage, dragonmen have brought wisdom, and halflings have brought skill.'"
Suddenly he said with some tears and laughter: "Miss Mint, it turns out that you were reading poetry to me just now?" ”
Minter said confidently: "I am most familiar with this poem, what Julien told us is too difficult to understand, I am a girl, where can I remember those unembellished and completely unaesthetic plots!" ”
Studying history through poetry is, of course, as undesirable as learning history through film. If you really want to understand the story of that time, I am afraid you still have to find Julien or go to the library to refer to serious historical materials.
But Agni didn't have this kind of leisure, and it was good to read poetry as if it were a story.
"Miss Mint, can you give me this poem? On the road, you can watch and relieve boredom. Agni asked.
Minter waved his hand very casually: "Take it, it's not a big deal, and with the resurgence of the Knights of the Covenant, this kind of ancient poetry will be rediscovered, and any book dealer can buy it." ”
Agni put away the songbook, and the small talk was over, he already had a rough idea of what the whole thing was going to do.
"I don't know if the Earl remembers what I want?" Agni asked.
"Marching charts? Of course, in fact, after the regimental commander was officially canonized as the count's retainer, these things were not a secret to him, so this was not a reward...... Wait, the head of the regiment said he would let you know when he got it. Minter said, then leaned slightly in the direction of the flames, "So...... When are you going to leave? ”
Minte's expression was a little inexplicable when he asked this sentence, which made Agni a little flustered.
"Hmm...... Probably in three days. Agni scratched his head and said, "I've been here for too long, and if I don't leave, I'm afraid I'll have to wait to collect the bodies of my classmates." ”
Hou Xuan, who was tens of thousands of kilometers away, suddenly felt a chill in his back: "Ah sneeze~!" ”
"Actually, Cologne Fort is not bad, it is about to lead to a big change, and the Black Tulip Brigade has also established good relations with the nobles at the top, and there are countless opportunities in the wasteland, which is far better than you embarking on an unknown journey." Minter lowered her head to drink tea, so that people could not see her expression.
"Of course, I believe that the Black Tulip Brigade will definitely become a pioneer among the fighters, and the future will be even more exciting." Agni smiled and said, "But...... Miss Mint, you know what I think, too. ”
Minter sighed softly, looking up with a smile on his face.
"I really don't understand what men think......," Minter said, and then suddenly clapped his hands as if he thought, "Ah! No, you're still a little boy! ”
"Miss Mint! Don't underestimate me! Agni was annoyed by being looked down upon, and although he was a year younger than Minter, he didn't want to be called a little boy.
Minter laughed.
Morning tea was almost drunk, and there was nothing more to know, so Agni got up and prepared to go to the church.
"I'm going to go to church...... Miss Mint together? ”
"Are you going to say goodbye to Miss Layla?"
Agni nodded.
"I've already been to see her in the morning, you can go yourself." "I'm going on a trip to the Marksman's Guild, and I've got one more Phantom Star on the expedition to learn a new skill - let's go out together!" ”
The two cleaned up and left the room.
Walking through an apartment full of female players, Agni once again felt extremely uncomfortable.
Discovering the abnormality of the fire, Minter snickered and said, "What a shy little boy!" ”
This is really irrefutable, as an ordinary Chinese high school student, he really doesn't have much experience with girls, let alone such a large group of French girls staring at him with different looks.
"Is it okay for a shy girl to casually let a boy into the room in a bathrobe like this?!" Agni was a little unconvinced, and he couldn't say anything at all.
Minter was rightly annoyed.
She kicked the fire hard and rolled it into the corner.
"I've never had a man in my room! Whether it's in the game or in reality! ”
Then he left the apartment angrily and left the apartment regardless of the fire.
"Why are you angry?!" Agni, who has been growing up under Tong Junwen's tolerance, doesn't understand girls at all.
