Chapter Eighty-Five: A Good Man Walks Away

"I am willing to refine a city for your glory!"

-- Craftsman.

…………………………………………………………

The Feynman River flows slowly through the city, and during the dry season, the water level is not high, and the wooden boats that are usually used to catch fish and algae are docked at the docks on the shore, rising and falling with the gentle waves.

At this time of year, the sun shines through the clock tower in the southeast corner of the slum, which is one of the things the slum is most proud of. The sun god was fair, he did not give wealth and scepters to the poor, but gave them the first rays of the sun every morning.

The sky is gray now, like a storm is coming.

The city became silent, and the twelve-story bell tower, located in the southeasternmost corner of Feynman City, was the newest and tallest building in the slums.

Usually the guards are young people who have passed the knight selection and become trainee knights, and after three months of guarding the bell tower, they will be given a chance to go out and practice.

During the training, some of them were sent to hunt the cubs of the Rhine Lion in the far southern wasteland, while others were assigned a task to exterminate the Shadow Eagle bandits. Only those who have passed the experience assessment will become a true knight and will be awarded the badge of the three-legged knight.

However, not all trainee knights can successfully complete the task, and more than half of these young warriors, with the dream of defending their home and country, died on the road.

There is not a single knight of the guard beneath the bell tower, and the ground is littered with pieces of granite and pieces of pine painted red. The two-foot high iron door was broken at the waist, and the door panel was full of potholes, as if it had been bombarded by a shotgun.

A boy of twelve or thirteen years of age, with a silver helmet the size of half his chest, sat motionless in front of the broken iron door.

Only a handful of slender feathers remained on the helmet, and the helmet was stained with bright red blood, like iron burned through a furnace.

The boy didn't care about the blood stains on his clothes, his clothes were already stained, and it wasn't bad for that.

He looked at his helmet as if he were looking at someone, holding back his tears.

At this moment, there was a loud "boom" in the bell tower!

One after another, the corpses of demon spirit soldiers were constantly thrown from the bell tower, smashing heavily to the ground, and smashing up a cloud of dust.

The boy shuddered with fright, and curled up behind the iron gate, watching puddles of flesh appear on the ground.

A moment later, in the floating earth, a burly figure slowly walked out. The man had a broken left hand, his lion-like head was hideous and terrifying, and in his only remaining right hand he grabbed a dying demon spirit soldier and threw it into the pile of flesh, and gave it a fierce kick.

"One hundred and fifty-three!"

Counting the few lurkers who quietly helped Hu Tian kill in front of the city gate of Ferdinand's Manor, he has already collected one hundred and fifty-three demon spirit soldiers!

But no one knows about these things.

"The world says that the Shadow Eagle is a traitor and a robber. But you don't know that the glory of the Templars is destroyed in your hands! Wait and see, Sun God, for a hundred years, your people have become numb and have forgotten the wounds of war. A new war is about to burn here. I will let everyone see that the Shadow Eagle has never left this land! ”

His voice was like a lion's roar, and it buzzed throughout the bell tower.

The bronze bell on this bell tower, which has not been rung for decades, is engraved with dense names, which are the names of the knights who died in the last war. The names of these people were never mentioned again.

He glanced back at the bell tower behind him, shook his head disdainfully, pulled a three-edged dagger from his waist, lifted the demon soldier's clothes, and ripped a falcon pattern on his back.

"Go back and tell Hermes that sissy that Shadow Eagle is ready to accept his challenge!"

The demon soldier screamed in pain, his limbs fluttered, and he got up and fled in a panic.

If Hu Tian was here, he would definitely be surprised. The person in front of him was not a bystander, but the shadow eagle beast spirit man he had captured in the knight's camp in the Tiger Bone Hill a few days ago.

After escaping from the battle between the knights' camp and Hermes, Tatan did not leave, but followed Hu Tian all the way to Feynman City. What Hu Tian has done these days, Tatan has always seen in his eyes.

With unyielding blood flowing in the Beast Spirit Clan, it was a great shame to be captured by humans. What's more, he was captured by a person like Hu Tian, who only had the second-layer realm of battle qi.

He was not convinced.

But Hu Tian was ...... Especially the breath that came out of those eyes, but it was always in his mind, and he even shuddered.

This is the first person who makes him feel fearful as a shadow eagle.

Therefore, he wanted to see what was going on, but he didn't expect that on the third day of coming to Feynman City, the demon spirit soldiers were also killed.

"Ferdinand, Lao Tzu guards the city gate for you, this time you owe me. But...... Your daughter has a good eye, she actually fell in love with this Hu Tian, and for the sake of his face, Lao Tzu will help you slaughter a few demon spirit dogs as a wedding gift for them! ”

It's a pity that the little beauty named Xu Noyi doesn't seem to live long. I really don't know where this Hu Tian is sacred, but he is surrounded by superb beauties......

There is no reason, there is no reason!

Tatan pulled the three-edged short blade back, but behind the iron door behind him, there was a crisp bump sound of "dang".

"Get out!" Tatan glared at the iron door of the bell tower and shouted.

"Ah......h

The child screamed softly and quickly covered his mouth. Still cautiously walked out from behind the iron door, staring timidly at Tatan's terrifying hairy head.

"You want to be a knight?"

Tatan was stunned when he saw the knight's helmet he was holding in his arms.

The boy shook his head and muttered, "This is my brother's." He...... He's dead, killed by the demons! ”

The little boy sobbed twice, raised his head and finally mustered up the courage to ask him, "Are you, are you really a shadow hawk robber?" ”

"Robbers?" Tatan glared at him angrily, and the frightened little boy with fangs in his mouth turned around and was about to run, but he grabbed him by the collar and lifted it up out of thin air. "Remember, boy, although the shadow eagle is bad, we are bad with dignity! I don't allow you to insult me with the word 'robber', understand? ”

The little boy nodded in horror.

Satisfied, Tatan let go of his hand, snatched the helmet from the child's arms, and buckled it to the little boy's head.

"If you want to avenge your brother, go there." He raised his hand and pointed to the Archduke Ferdinand's manor in the distance, "Go find a man named Hu Tian, if he is still alive, he will help you take revenge." Remember, boy, Templars don't cry, only cowards shed tears! ”

"Hmm!" The little boy nodded, touched a handful of tears, and bowed to Tatan, "You killed the Demon Spirit Soldier, you are a good person!" ”

With that, he turned and ran in the direction of Ferdinand's manor.

Good?

Tatan smiled bitterly, it had been a long time since anyone had spoken this word in front of him. Perhaps, it's not bad to be a good person......

He shook his lion-like head and looked at the Grand Duke's manor. At this time, the sky above the manor was treacherous, and strange lights kept flickering, as if a secret treasure had been born.

Hu Tian, I hope you don't disappoint Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu has to be a good person!

Tatan muttered, turned around and was about to leave-

And at this time......

Boom!

An explosion came from the side of the street more than ten meters away.

A helmet, which was almost deflated, was bounced into the air, fell down heavily, and rolled down in front of Tatan with a thud.

"Damn!! ……”

Tatan's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his eyes. The little boy who was alive just now was blown up into a huge blood flower in front of his eyes and bloomed in the air.

"Who is it?"

Tatan roared angrily, glancing around, but he didn't find out where the person who shot was located.

At this moment, an eerie voice suddenly appeared behind him-

"No need to look for it, I'm here."

Tatan turned his head suddenly, and before he could shout, a long sword pierced his chest.

The blade tore open his chest and pierced his guts. At that moment, he could no longer feel what the pain was, and the gray sky was covered with blood-like flowers.

In the midst of that blood, a little boy nodded firmly and said to him, "You're a good man......"

Tatan grew his mouth, looked at the face of the gloomy owl in front of him, the huge lion head hung down weakly, he vomited blood in his throat, and said the last sentence forcefully-

"Hermes ......"
