Chapter 19: Fierce quarrels

The Semirja Fortress was a strategic fulcrum for the eastward defense of the Kingdom of Trich, with a ten-meter-high stone wall and three castles that could support each other, as well as a number of other fortifications.

The fortress has a narrow front and enough reserves inside to hold out for more than a year when foreign aid is cut off.

Historically, the kingdom of Trich and the kingdom of Eaton to the east of it have been at odds for a hundred years. In the era of war, Semirga became the end point of Eaton's westward advance.

It's just that the two countries began to try to reconcile more than a hundred years ago, and sent each other royal nobles to show their sincerity, called ambassadors, but in fact hostages. In recent decades, large-scale wars on the border have disappeared, but military friction still occurs from time to time.

Cynthia's father, Erian, as the younger brother of the king, also served as an ambassador for a short time in the royal capital of Trich, and had a daughter Cynthia there.

The Duke's daughter spent almost all of her teen years as a teenager in Kaliheri before she went to study at Robert. It can be said that this time the secret alliance sent her to her hometown, also considering that she is half a local, and it is much more convenient in all aspects.

The three of them sat in the carriage, and the people of the mercenary group behind them outside, all the way to Semirga. Within ten miles of the fortress, the population gradually became dense. Some are the garrisons of the major mercenary groups outside the fortress, and some are refugees who have fled. The homeless people were crowded under the city walls, struggling to survive on the thin porridge of the Trich officials and some temple alms.

There are also a few merchants who mingle to sell goods, and as you can imagine, business is quite deserted, and you have to worry about hungry and crazy outcasts rushing to loot, mercenaries blackmailing and pickpockets patronizing. It's not easy to do business.

But there is also a particularly prosperous place, that is, the recruitment point of the mercenary group, which is surrounded by homeless people. Hao Yun saw that the mercenaries in charge of recruiting people were picky, this one punched a few times, that one kicked two kicks, and those who could get up were qualified. You can sign the deed of sale immediately, and get a piece of black bread to eat.

It's just that the elimination rate is quite high. Prolonged starvation and disease have drained the life force of most displaced people. There was a middle-aged man holding a child (I couldn't tell if it was a boy or a girl) who couldn't stand the two punches, and he lay on the ground coughing up blood, and gradually lost his breath.

No one noticed that a life was disappearing, and the homeless people clamored for the person in charge to hurry up and continue recruiting. Only his child sat on the ground and shook him in vain, hoping that his father would be able to stand up.

Spider-Man once said that with great power comes great responsibility. On the other hand, if you don't have the ability, you can be irresponsible. Hao Yun has been an ordinary person for many years, and he often sees countless tragedies on TV. Whether it's innocent civilians who lost their lives in terrorist attacks, or hundreds of children starving to death in the famine in Somalia.

Whenever he saw this, he felt sad in his heart, but he did not have the urge to stop it. Because he is just an ordinary person, he has no ability and no responsibility. Maybe when tragedy happens to someone close to him, such as family or friends, he will stand up. But for strangers, Hao Yun can only choose to watch.

But now that he has the ability, some different ideas are beginning to grow in his heart. He could ignore the tragedy that was happening on the Glorias continent, but what was happening in front of him, he still wanted to try to change it.

However, Hao Yun's current ability does not have treatment for the time being, and he has to ask for help from his seniors.

"Xiaobai, look at the man who fell to the ground, can you save it?"

Xiaobai was brushing novels, and refused without raising his head: "Don't save it." ”

"You ......"

didn't even look at it, Hao Yun was really a little angry now. He always felt that Xiaobai was such a cute girl, she must be very sympathetic and kind. And he thinks that he has a good relationship with Xiaobai, even if it is a request as a good friend, it can't be so perfunctory.

Little brother, I'm afraid it's not Shi Lezhi, Xiaobai's name can be reported to scare the devils of the nine layers of hell into crying. You think she's gentle, cute and kind.

Xiaobai heard that Hao Yun's tone was not good, and put down the novel with an inexplicable face: "What's wrong with me?" Many people die every day, can you save them one by one? ”

Hao Yun sighed and turned his head away from her.

Xiaobai was very angry: "Did I say something wrong?" I've seen more people I've killed than you know in all human beings, and every time I shed a tear, then I can't live anymore? Hao Yun, you correct your identity! ”

Xiaobai reminded Hao Yun that immortals are different from ordinary people after all, even if they live as ordinary people on the earth, when they go on a mission, some values need to be abandoned, and they can't be so virginal.

Hao Yun is also very angry, he can curry favor with Xiaobai on weekdays, but not now. If this kind of major issue of right and wrong follows Xiaobai, isn't it really a licking dog?

"Heh, do you still have the right identity?" Hao Yun sneered, "It's selfish!" ”

"Smack!" The novel in Xiaobai's hand was pinched into powder by her at once, and there was a sonic boom in the air, "Say it again!" ”

Xiaobai's little fist clenched tightly. After entering the unit, no one said anything serious to her, and everyone let her. At most, the director criticized her when she was in trouble.

When did someone say this to her face, it was for a human who didn't know her at all.

What qualifications do you have to say about me! Who do you think you are? Xiaobai's eyes were red with anger, and his heart's favorability towards Hao Yun was -99999.

Hao Yun especially wanted to point to her nose and ask, do you still have any sympathy? The watch of the Virgin is annoying, but it is a living person. And there are children next to them, and if this father dies, the children will definitely starve to death.

Hao Yun retained the last bit of gentlemanly demeanor, he didn't quarrel with Xiaobai, just turned his head to look out the window and ignored her. I gave a big bad review to the soft girl in my heart.

"Alright, alright!" Cynthia saw that the atmosphere was not right, these two were going to fight. She hurriedly hugged Xiaobai, who was about to run away, and while comforting the soft girl who was trembling slightly, she counted Hao Yun down, "You are a big man who bullies girls?" Is there anything you can't say well? ”

As she spoke, she freed up a hand, and her fingertips condensed an emerald green spell aura, flying towards the middle-aged man who was seriously injured and fell to the ground.

The powerful life force was once again infused into the torn body, and the injuries and illnesses in it were repaired. got up, groped for his body, and looked incredible. No one noticed the miraculous scene, only his child giggled when he saw his father wake up again.

Seeing this scene, Hao Yun closed the curtains. He also knew that he was a little impulsive just now, but he didn't regret it.

"Senior Xiaobai, I'm sorry, I was impulsive." He apologized, but his tone was not sincere.

Xiaobai buried his head in Cynthia's big chest and ignored him at all. Cynthia thought that she had stopped a quarrel between lovers, but in fact, how could Xiaobai endure this kind of personality. Neither Hao Yun nor Cynthia found out, in fact, she had already done it just now, so she was a little excited now.

She had just popped the book in her hand, and the flying pieces of paper broke through the sound barrier and slashed at Hao Yun's body. Xiaobai is not a good-tempered guy, and he will never force when he can do it. The high-speed breaking piece of paper is almost as powerful as a knife blade, and ordinary people are afraid that they will already be riddled with holes if they suffer from this.

However, Hao Yun sat there dignifiedly, not even realizing that he had received a fatal blow.

"The Origin Immortal is so skinny...... Xiaobai hid in Cynthia's sister's big breasts, "Cut!" ”
