Chapter 270: Courage Determines Achievement
readx;?β Hum...... Hehe...... Hahahaha! After hearing Su Xiao's words, Earl Dave couldn't help but laugh out loud. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Laughing at what?" Su Xiao looked left and right inexplicably, frowned and said, "I'm not praising you." β
"Heyββ!" Earl Dave easily suppressed his laughter, sighed and said: "That's right, that's right, that's right, everything you reasoned is right, what bought Huang Yanyan, kidnapped Chen Yaxuan, and killed those two old immortals, these are indeed all things I ordered my subordinates to do." There are also the Maple Leaf Mercenary Regiment, if I hadn't sheltered them, how could they have gained a foothold in the pursuit of the Emerald Phoenix? β
Speaking of this, Earl Dave simply answered Su Xiao's questions: "Don't you want to know why Simon Marka is facing that waste city lord?" Because a year ago, it was I who drank to stop the Jade Phoenix's pursuit of the Maple Leaf Mercenary Group. He doesn't necessarily like the current city lord very much, but his dislike for me is real, in your otherworldly words, this is called the enemy of the enemy is the friend? β
Now that he has spoken, Earl Dave is not as embarrassed and restrained as before, learning Su Xiao's BJ paralysis, leaning comfortably on the sofa, and said with fascination: "As early as the beginning of your crossing, I have already hit you with my idea." To be honest, at first, the brave or something was really disappointing. You know what I thought when I first started? β
Su Xiao put on a curious look, "Listen up." β
Earl Dave glanced at Su Xiao proudly and contemptuously, and said in the villa owner's voice as cold as the middle of winter, "I thought every day at that time, you are a group of stupid pigs raised by the city lord!" β
"Haha!" Hearing such insults, Su Xiao could still laugh, "I am not included in this, I was swept out of the house by the city lord early in the morning." β
"In all fairness, you and Chen Yaxuan are still worthy of my admiration." Earl Dave smiled at Su and bowed slightly, acknowledging the status of this first brave man, and then said: "As you said, for ordinary people, the weight of a brave man may be heavier than that of a king. Those stupid pigs are just stupid and stupid, but the fat on their bodies is genuine, for these living voting piggy banks, how can I be willing to give up to the Marshall family? β
"You're right about one thing, I sent someone to assassinate Qiao Yefei." Earl Dave casually pointed to the head of the man on the table, "You think I only sent him?" No, there were no less than twenty assassins hiding in the crowd at that time, and although none of them were top experts, it was definitely more than enough to find the opportunity to take out a level 10 brave. If it weren't for you and Chen Yaxuan to stir up the situation and make those accompanying knights vigilant, Qiao Yefei would definitely die! β
"You know, I'm a civil servant, and a highly educated person like me certainly doesn't want to solve problems in a bloody way. It's a pity," Earl Dave shook his head regretfully, "the brave man is more ** than I thought." β
"I had intended to wait for the brave men to leave the castle, and then I would personally take them into the Earl's Court, and let them into my camp with my knowledge and ideals. But the result? These fat pigs dressed in human skin actually have no intention of leaving, lying in the castle all day long, enjoying the people's fat and people's ointment that the city lord has scavenged from the people, and even helping the city lord to scavenge more people's fat and people's ointment, you say they don't deserve to die? Earl Dave covered his face in pain, "You said I did it to Qiao Yefei to avoid suspicion?" No, I really think he deserves to die! β
If he was from the position of the people, Su Xiao had to admit the justice in Earl Dave's heart, but when he looked around the magnificent decoration, precious and rare ornaments in the villa, and even the elastic leather sofa under his buttocks, he could only ask for the people: "Do you think that the city lord who stole the people's fat and people's ointment should die, and the brave man who helped the city lord scavenge the people's fat and people's ointment should die, so I don't know where these valuable things in the earl's house came from?" β
Earl Dave seemed to have guessed that Su Xiao would ask this question, and said calmly: "I used you as a character to say this to you, and you actually compared me to such a person?" β
It is said that the official level crushes people to death, and the rank of one level lower is more terrible than that of the official. Hearing Earl Dave say such things in such a superior tone, Su Xiao couldn't help but ask, "How are you better than them?" β
"Hmph, do you know what is the situation of the nobles who inherit the title in the Snow Country today? Less than one-tenth of them are unemployed, and judging from the palace situation in the past ten years, the unemployed aristocracy is gradually declining, as if the deadline is approaching! Earl Dave said proudly: "But after I succeeded to the title of viscount, in just three years, I was promoted to the title of earl by myself, and I even sat on the official position in Peacock City that can compete with the city lord!" What does my accomplishment say? It means that I am the one who is destined by Heaven and destined by Heaven! β
"Uh......" Hearing this, Su Xiao and his little friends were stunned.
In the real world, many high-quality single-player games will be set in medieval European countries, so as an excellent player, Su Xiao also had to carefully learn some simple historical common sense to avoid making jokes. Among them, the most common should be the title, from the oldest to the smallest, the princes and uncles.
The duke is the highest-ranking nobleman outside the royal family, and he is definitely in the center of the ruling power.
Similar to the princes of ancient China, the marquis was often related to the royal family, and was appointed as the lord of a major city or the king of a small dependent state.
Most of the counts have nothing to do with the royal family, either as an official in the main city, or as a county magistrate in a secondary city such as a township, and are generally left behind by the centralized power.
Viscounts and barons have no special status in the officialdom, they are often promoted to nobles by military merits, so the real power will be relatively weak compared to the high-ranking nobles. For example, the Marca family behind Simon Malca, although he rarely mentions his parents and family, but his father is the permanent baron of the king.
Seeing this, everyone should almost understand why Su Xiao was stunned, he couldn't even imagine that a mere earl would feel that he was determined by his providence and destiny! I'm a god, if this is put in ancient China, it will definitely be a big sin to lose your head!
Seeing that Su Xiao was stunned and didn't speak, Earl Dave mistakenly thought that he had been shocked by the gorgeous and dazzling tyrant temperament on his body, stretched out his right hand forward, made a firm and powerful gesture, and said sonorously: "Once I take the position of city lord from the Marshall family, I will have great confidence that I will be promoted to marquis again if I only make some achievements." In less than ten years, I may be the only duke in the world without office, and this achievement will surely go down in history! β
"Hmm...... Poof......" Su Xiao knew that it was rude to laugh out loud when people were looking forward to the future, but he looked at the capitalized and bold "Dash" on Earl Dave's face, and he still couldn't hold back after all.
Su Xiao thought that Count Dave thought that he was determined by the will of heaven and the destiny of heaven was very unexpected, but he didn't expect that his greatest ideal would stop at the word "duke", and he didn't even dare to look at the pure gold and diamond crown on the king's head - if he was really the chosen one appointed by God, I was afraid that after knowing his ideals, God would be so angry that he would vomit blood, right?
Hearing Su Xiao's laughter, Earl Dave was furious: "What are you laughing at?" β
"Knowledge changes fate, courage determines achievement." Su Xiao is such an upright boy, of course he will tell the truth: "A little person is a small person, no matter how big your ambition is, you will never be able to become a big person, this may be the destiny in your mouth."
