Chapter 362: The Banquet

There was a sign in front of the bar that was closed to the public, and Ye Qi bypassed the sign and walked with his legs raised to the surprised and respectful greetings of the waiters.

"Boss, welcome back!"

The tall, muscular waiters bowed slightly, bowed slightly, and then made way of a road large enough for Ye Qi to pass - although there were signs, the guys who were often touched in the bar sometimes did not understand such 'polite refusals', and it would take more practical actions to make them understand what they should do right.

Ye Qi nodded slightly and continued to walk inside.

"Hah! Ye, welcome back! ”

Because it wasn't time for the dinner, there weren't many people on the entire floor, except for Cyril, the witcher who had hurried back from the Thousand Ponds without catching up with the dark creatures, was drinking alone - in fact, it wasn't uncommon, and last night, people like them had drunk enough.

Cyril, the witcher who wielded a huge horse slasher, was still wearing a slightly worn leather armor, as well as messy hair and a messy beard, even if he took care of it very carefully, it still looked messy, and even, Ye Qi was sure that if Cyril didn't care so much, these hair and beards would be a little better.

Ye Qi gestured to the bartender, took a glass of drink without any alcohol, gently collided with Cyril, and laughed in a 'ding' sound: "I'm really happy to see you guy!" ”

For this first apostle-level witcher he had seen in Landingburg, Ye Qi naturally remembered it vividly, and the other party had helped him a lot. It also brought him a lot of trouble; But. In short, the other party is a good person. And for such a person, Ye Qi sincerely welcomes the return of the other party.

Ye Qi put down the bar, paused slightly, and asked with a smile: "How is the harvest this time?" ”

Immediately, Cyril shook his head and sighed, "It's okay...... However, compared to here, it is really far behind! If I hadn't delved into the unexplored areas of Sennuma Ward. I should be able to catch this battle - I love this kind of battlefield more than burrowing! ”

Ye Qi smiled and said, "Sometimes, it's always like this - when you think you have gained something, you actually lose more!" ”

Cyril nodded helplessly, but immediately laughed secretly, only to see the swordsman leaning towards Ye Qi, then pointing to the horses outside, and then to the upstairs. Whispered: "However, I think the second half of the words." You can go on like this: 'You always get some compensation when you think you've lost something'...... I think that's too much...... I'd love to see what kind of situation you'll face! ”

Ye Qi simply rolled his eyes and said, "It will definitely not be what you expect to see!" ”

Cyril shrugged his shoulders indifferently, picked up the bottle next to him again, took a big sip, and began to wait with a smile; Ye Qi frowned slightly, and finally put the drink without any alcohol on the bar, said hello to the bartender, and slowly walked towards the second floor.

Cyril, who was waiting, jumped up immediately, and after drinking the wine in the bottle in one gulp, he followed without dropping.

The bartender who stayed behind quickly cleaned up the glasses and empty bottles, wiped the bar clean again, and then, with a helpless smile, shook his head.

……

The second floor of the bar is not much more lively than the first floor; However, compared to the number of people on the first floor, the number of people here is much larger; Looking at Ye Qi who came up, all the female rangers led by Lancelot stood up, and twelve pairs of eyes stared at Ye Qi without much kindness.

Although they didn't know exactly what was going on until now, the chameleon and Linda suddenly appeared during the previous introduction. North, however, made these Rangers, who were also women, feel that something was wrong; Even if they have very little contact with everything in this area, but the nature of women makes them instinctively keen; Especially with the fact that Reynx, who already had a little bit of a greasy existence, the twelve rangers who were about to end their girlhood couldn't help but think about it when they sat here.

"Long time no see, Lancelot, Gawain...... And everybody! ”

Ye Qi, who was surrounded in the middle, called the female rangers in front of him one by one by the names in his memory; However, such a title obviously could not make these female rangers improve their current attitude, they looked at each other for a moment, and Gawain stood up - originally Lancelot would be the best candidate, but the unclear relationship between the two before made her have no such position at all.

In fact, Lancelot would never have done such a stupid thing if he couldβ€”yes, it seemed to her at the time to be extremely clever, but now it is to her; Although it has been painful, it is undoubtedly growth.

With the encouraging eyes of his companions, Gawain stood in front of Ye Qi and asked, "That's called Bernadette. Taylor and Linda. Who is the woman in North? ”

Obviously, such a direct question made Ye Qi groan, and he replied with a wry smile: "I think I should explain it to Els!" ”

Gao Wen snorted coldly, and said without giving an inch: "Don't you need to practice in front of us in advance?" ”

Ye Qi smiled bitterly and continued: "I don't think it's necessary! ”

With that, Ye Qi walked directly inside; Lancelot on the side immediately frowned, and reached out to pull Ye Qi's windbreaker, but she had just raised her arm, and Ye Qi, who was still standing in front of her, had already appeared behind her with a shake, and the moment she turned around, Ye Qi had already walked out of this encirclement.

The whole process was very fast, and it was almost time for these girlfriend cavalry to remove Lancelot, and the rest of the people only felt that it was a flower in front of them, and they lost the trace of Ye Qi.

looked at Ye Qi who smiled apologetically. Lancelot and the other female rangers snorted. Turned his head. He looked at Cyril who was still standing at the top of the stairs; Immediately, Cyril felt a chill on his back, and he raised his hands and shouted loudly, "I am an invited guest, a guest...... It has nothing to do with the person before! ”

Lancelot looked at Cyril coldly and said, "The banquet hasn't started yet, and the second floor is temporarily closed!" ”

Cyril immediately nodded as if he had been pardoned: "Yes, yes!" ”

As he spoke, he trotted down the second floor, and Cyril, who was standing at the top of the stairs on the first floor, thought of the twelve rangers who exuded a strong aura, especially the one who led the way. Not only did he smile bitterly, but he muttered in a low voice: "When does even watching the excitement have to be measured by strength?" ”

This murmur can only be heard by Cyril herself, but the gloomy look is clear to anyone.

The bartender smiled and asked, "Do I need a glass of my special mead?" ”

Cyril immediately shouted, "I want a bottle!" ”

Looking at the way he took the bottle, it was clear that he had almost forgotten what had happened beforeβ€”the life of a witcher was, in a sense, unusually monotonous; But. Because of this monotony, it makes them simpler and simpler.

Friend. Drink.

Enemy, draw your sword.

And undoubtedly, Cyril is one of such simple representatives; Ye Qi had also prepared to develop in this direction; However, it is a pity that after that inexplicable contract, when he stood on the opposite side of the Holy See, which represented one of Lorante's three powerful forces, everything about him became involuntary.

At the very least, for Ye Qi, who cherishes life, everything has changed.

……

When they walked out of the secret passage leading to the underground hall on the second floor, the two remnants of the soldiers guarding the secret passage immediately said respectfully: "Welcome back, boss!" ”

One of the remnants of the soldier said as he glared at Ye Qi, and the other simply made a gesture; Ye Qi nodded in response, and walked briskly towards the branch road towards the most central underground hall.

Step, step, step......

Ye Qi did not hide the sound of his footsteps, he hoped that the people in the hall could also hear it - to give both sides a separate preparation, this is the reason for Ye Qi to comfort himself at this moment.

However, to Ye Qi's surprise, when his footsteps sounded, except for the fluctuations belonging to the female cavalry commander, the remaining three fluctuations, including the chameleon, were all trying to move far away - the guest room that was arranged was just in case, and now it should be the chameleon's room.

Such an unknown move made Ye Qi's footsteps pause, and the footsteps were randomly interrupted; However, the next moment, Ye Qi moved forward again - it had reached such a point that he naturally had no point to hesitate.

The strange wolf laughed in his heart: "Does this feel like going to the execution ground?" ”

Ye Qi replied coldly: "I hope you can share with me how you felt!" ”

The strange wolf asked strangely, "I haven't been to the execution ground again?" ”

Ye Qi replied coldly: "I thought you had been there, so you would be so clear!" ”

The strange wolf snorted coldly: "Originally, I still had this good method, and I was going to share it with you, but now it seems that ......"

The strange wolf deliberately lengthened his tone, giving Ye Qi a long enough time to wait; However, Ye Qi shook his head very simply: "No need...... There are some things that have to be faced directly...... Instead of looking for excuses! ”

The strange wolf pursed the corners of his lips and said, "Fake boy...... It's always such hypocrisy! ”

After speaking, the strange wolf disappeared straight into Ye Qi's heart; However, Ye Qi can be sure that the strange wolf will definitely not hide in the sealing hall to sleep at this time, and will definitely use the power of the contract to 'watch the show' - no matter what the result is, such a 'good show' will be the capital of the other party to laugh at him in the future.

In this regard, Ye Qi, who had long been accustomed to it, just took a deep breath and stepped into the hall.

For a lady, a rare straight figure sat in the sofa, without the slightest weakness or enjoyment, Ye Qi slowly walked to the back of the sofa and stretched out his hand and gently put it on the other party's shoulders that were slightly higher than the back of the sofa, even if it was separated by a layer of uniform, the temperature of Ye Qi's palm was still hot and slightly warm, as if to convey Ye Qi's apology.

The female cavalry commander asked in a low voice, "Do you want to explain anything?" ”

Ye Qi smiled bitterly: "I can't explain it...... I'm sorry. I seem to have done something against my principles! ”

The female cavalry captain turned her head. Look at Ye Qi. The emerald green eyes looked at Ye Qi, who was smiling bitterly, his voice was a little less hard, and there was a more soft feeling, and he asked, "Your principles, because I have violated them?" ”

Ye Qi nodded and said, "I have principles and bottom lines - but I am not a consistent person...... Maybe it's a cronyistic guy who I can't always do in the face of my loved ones; Maybe. The two standards and two bottom lines in other people's mouths are really suitable for me! ”

Speaking of this, Ye Qi's wry smile became more and more intense, and he pursed his lips, wanting to make this smile a little more restrained, but it had no effect.

The female cavalry commander moved her body slightly, giving up most of the sofa, even the place with the armrests, so that Ye Qi could sit down, and she personally held Ye Qi's arm. "I also violated my own principles...... I have compromised with those who must be put to death in my eyes...... My knightly way. The most important thing is fairness – but I can't! ”

"I'm helpless, I want to find a comfort!"

Ye Qi immediately raised his arm, stopped her shoulder, and whispered, "I'm here!" If you can...... I will always be here! ”

The female cavalry captain looked at Ye Qi and stared: "I have turned my back on my heart for violating my knightly ways, but the result obtained is surprising to me - the battle outside the Four Seasons Castle at that time is still continuing, but the balance of victory is tilted in our side...... Violating one's path, but winning the final victory, I was lost at that moment! ”

"There is more to knighthood than justice...... There is mercy, but I can't show mercy to those people, looking at their existence, I still want to draw my sword and cut off their headsβ€”even if they are contributing to the victory of the war, but more often than not, they are still for themselves! ”

The voice of the female cavalry commander was thick with confusion and a hint of confusion.

Ye Qi gently patted her on the shoulder and said, "You gave up your own path, chose to compromise, and won the victory; They insisted on doing their own thing, seeking their own interests, and they also won the victoryβ€”your knighthood has not changed, and in the midst of justice and mercy, you have a more selfless heart: sacrifice! ”

"Sacrificing the path you have chosen to take care of the overall situation, I don't think any person or existence can say anything too much to you...... Because, you've done your best - and I'm ......" Speaking of this, Ye Qi sighed: "I have always flaunted my principles and bottom line, but I just reminded myself without mentioning it; But...... As you can see, my willpower is not as strong as I imagined! ”

After saying these words, Ye Qi was already waiting, and then scolded or questioned like a storm, but, to his surprise, the female cavalry commander did not do this, she gently patted the back of his hand on her shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Master Pednange once told me that if you are too persistent, you will eventually lose everything...... At that time, it was difficult for me to understand such words, but after this war, after those several compromises, I understood some! ”

"If you can't do it consistently, then you shouldn't have that kind of pride!" The female cavalry commander looked at Ye Qi and asked softly, "Seeing me appear here, is there already a trace of joy in your heart?" ”

Ye Qi shook his head and said, "I'm only nervous...... And afraid! ”

The female cavalry captain stared at Ye Qi and said, "Don't you have confidence in me?" ”

Ye Qi smiled bitterly: "It's not about faith, it's just about mistakes; After all, my previous promise to you, at this time, seems to be inferior to even a piece of waste paper...... And more importantly, after us, after us...... Do you understand? ”

Speaking of which, Ye Qi couldn't say any more.

And rarely, Ye Qi's face also had a trace of embarrassment, he was even more apprehensive and uneasy at this moment than when he went on a mission for the first time, Ye Qi's eyes looked at the female cavalry captain expectantly.

The female cavalry commander nodded slightly and replied, "I understand...... I also understand, and try to put myself in your shoes, thinking about some things - this makes me more clear and understanding of you! ”

Ye Qi stared at the female cavalry chief's palm through her neck, put his head to the female cavalry chief's ear, and whispered, "Xie Lu Xie!" ”

The female cavalry commander responded slightly, kissing Ye Qi's earlobe.

Then, the two hugged even tighter.

After a long time, the female cavalry commander suddenly said, "Do you want to know what Lord Pudenange told me? ”

Ye Qi nodded: "I'll listen to it!" ”

……

In the chameleon's room, Reyncks and Linda. Nosd was still in a trance at the moment.

They looked at the chameleon in disbelief and asked, "That's it?" ”

The chameleon nodded, "Of course - anything can happen to a woman for love!" ”

Reynckes still had a hint of disbelief, and she said, "But, but ......"

The chameleon laughed: "A woman's pride, if it were herself, then she would be destined to be lonely - you should be glad that Lord Elsie understands this very well!" ”
