155 Invincible Lucky Stars
"What's the situation?!" Lin Su's first reaction after hearing the magic explosion was surprise. [No pop-ups]
Elf One thought for a moment and smiled, "Maybe Miss Hirthity and His Excellency the Light Wizard encountered some ambush?!" After all, the two of you have been waiting for you outside the door just now. ”
"They were ambushed outside the door?!" Lin Su was surprised again.
"I think so." Elf One smiled again.
"Then hurry up and close the doors and windows, don't get caught in it!"
"......" The black panther couldn't bear to let out a low roar, pulled aside the elf No. 1 who wanted to strengthen the door lock, and then bit the corner of Lin Shu's clothes and dragged the woman back: "Roar!! ”
"Heh, hehe...... I'm kidding. "Damn, I forgot that this big guy is also there.
When I went out, I saw that it was the culprit recruited by Hirti. The situation on the continent is like a deep river, which seems to be calm, but in fact there are turbulent waves hidden under the calm surface. In times of war or peace, the turmoil stirred up by politics will never be spared.
It is true that there are many overt and covert battles between various races over resources and beliefs, but these are far less than the struggles within the human race. The clash of beliefs and cultures, the struggle for interests and rights, are enough grounds for all disputes.
Although the Holy See is not a state power, it is also an influential force, and it is natural that there are hostile forces, and these hostile forces are collectively called blasphemers.
The blasphemers sent by Alfeid were death row prisoners in the empire in disguise, and the original intention was only to distract the attention of the Holy See, but what they didn't expect was that the real blasphemers unexpectedly gained greater benefits, and they didn't even know who helped them divert the tiger from the mountain and took away the hatred value of most of the knights in the Holy See.
Magic roared outside the door. As soon as Lin Shu went out, he saw dozens of Knights of Light surrounding and protecting Hirthiti and the Magister of Light, fighting a group of black-armored blasphemers with evil totem masks.
"Crisp!" The Light Magister, who was releasing the blessing magic, was very happy to see Lin Su: "I'm really sorry, we seem to have caused you trouble. ”
"It's okay, you beat you, I'll just take a look." Lin Shu looked around at the chaotic practice field, thought about it and added comfort: "This is the responsibility of the inadequate security of the imperial capital, I will apply to the royal family for compensation for the damage to the house when I go back, you don't have to mind." ”
“…… Crispy, I thought you could help us first?! The Light Magister wiped his sweat.
"Absolutely." Lin Shu smiled and turned sideways, and Elf No. 1 immediately walked up with an elegant demeanor. Smile took the contract and asked as he filled it out, "You mean to hire our mercenary group, right?!" Let's set the mission reward according to the current event first, and the reward for repelling these blasphemers is a total of 8735 gold coins, okay?! If you're not satisfied with the amount, I can explain to you, this includes mercenary money, equipment and weapon attrition, and ......"
"Okay, okay, I agree to everything, please help immediately, okay!"
The elven mercenaries were given orders. Quickly joined the battle to help, and in the fierce and tense battle, Lin Su casually took the money bag handed by the Light Magister who withdrew from the battle. Deposit space and get a specific amount at the same time, and after confirmation, you are satisfied: "Where did these people come from?!" ”
"I don't know." The Light Magister's expression was a little complicated: "We originally thought that the blasphemers should all go to the Neighboring Alliance, but we didn't expect that there would be so many left here...... Curiously, their purpose appears to be to use Hirti as a sniper target. And the strength of these blasphemers seems to be stronger than the large number of blasphemers in the Alliance...... But if the real elite is here, why would the blasphemous people of the alliance make such a big move?! ”
"That's right. Why......"
Yafeyd was in a cold sweat on the second floor, why?! Because there are two groups of people in the alliance and in the imperial capital, the latter is a member of the genuine blasphemer, who is good at fighting, not afraid of life and death, and has a clear purpose for work.
The former is an imposter sent out by himself, raised from death row, regardless of identity, physical qualifications, etc., and is hurriedly employed after at least one month and at most a few months of training, which is a short-term temporary worker. The only role is to make up the numbers...... This is like one is a graduate of a full-fledged key university, and the other is a short-term trainee of a training course. One is a high-level research worker, and the other is a dead office worker......
Close the window silently. Alfeld opened the magic mirror and contacted his subordinates: "The plan has slowed down, and the Holy Maiden may not have time to visit you in the near future." Tell those people not to go too far. "In the alliance, you should also consider the problem of individual degrees, in case the impact is too big, don't toss to the back and don't recruit the saint, but recruit the army of neighboring countries.
A dispute between the two countries started because a certain prince wanted to refuse marriage?! This is so funny, and it is not impossible that he will be accidentally elected as one of the top ten 2b young people who will move the whole continent......
In a fierce battle, the fierce strength of the elven mercenary group was fully reflected, if the elves danced the two daggers like wind and lightning were still within the acceptable range, the elves' various stealth muffled sticks and stealing trouser belts could barely make the light magister force the small blood and tears in his throat and laugh silently.
Then when a few elves accidentally sacrificed heroically, fell in front of everyone, and then the corpses suddenly disappeared in a flash of white light without waiting for anyone to grieve, and then hurriedly shouted "buckle my commission" and rushed out of the backyard in a hurry, lined up to Elf No. 1 to receive a rough straw man, and then re-entered the battle with the straw man, the people of the Bright Church had to be terrified.
"The God of Light is !!" The Light Magister prayed like crazy, rubbed his eyes desperately, and stared at the few elves who were already dead and couldn't die anymore, but at this time they were still jumping around, and they were stunned for a while before they looked at Lin Su with a misty face: "Although I heard that you taught the elves the skills of thieves, I didn't expect that you even taught the forbidden spell of the undead?!" ”
Hirti was already Spartan, and his eyes were straight and he only muttered, "Pure and beautiful elves...... Pure and beautiful ......"
Lin Shu rolled his eyes and stretched out his hand to the Light Magister: "Thank you for 1,000 gold coins." ”
"......" Dementia handed out 1,000 gold coins, and the Light Magister didn't even think to ask the other party what he wanted to do when he asked for money.
Collect gold coins, open a god and demon shop, and trade selected items...... In the eyes of the crowd. Lin Su seemed to just reach out and grab it in the void, and when he flipped his wrist, he was already pinching a scarecrow with extremely rough workmanship.
"Substitute straw man, the secret of immortality of the elves." Lin Shu threw the stand-in straw man to the Light Magister: "The selling price is 1,000 gold, this time it is a friendly trial price, please add 2% of the purchase money if you need it next time." A straw man can be exempted from a death penalty, if you are interested, you can take it back and study it yourself! ”
"This is ......" The Light Magister held the straw man's hands and trembled, "Is this a miracle of the Elven King?!" "It's too much, even the God of Light, who is in charge of healing blessings, didn't give his followers this kind of benefit, how can the Elf King overstep his authority?!
"yes, yes." Lin Shu smiled with his teeth: "I have the right to trade with gods and demons." ”
“……”
A small deception is called a liar, and a big deception is a politician. Anyway, she's already an elf queen. Lin Shu didn't mind letting herself have more chips.
On one side is renewable power, and on the other side is one less to die. Although blasphemers are not afraid of life and death for the sake of their faith, they are not stupid, and knowing that the enemy can be resurrected, these people feel as if they have been insulted. Then no one wanted to continue playing with the elves.
Leaving behind their incapacitated companions, the blasphemers quickly withdrew from the elven mercenary group. After counting the results, half of the commission will be charged as the income of the mercenary group's public account. The rest is divided among the participating elves. Except for a few elves who accidentally played themselves to death and ended up with straw man money out of their own pockets, everyone else made a fortune.
In the gloomy eyes of a few elves, the others celebrated happily.
The Light Magister was stimulated, and hurriedly said goodbye to Lin Shu with his stand-in straw man, and then went back to the Holy See. He felt that this was a different dimensional world that he didn't understand......
Lin Su took the panther back to the second floor to find Alfeld. Before he could speak, he met that the other party had already packed up his personal belongings and said goodbye to himself:
"I still think I should go back to the palace." Alfeld smiled.
"It's pretty fast." Lin Shu also smiled: "Be a thief with a weak heart, little ghost?!" ”
"......" Alfeld was depressed: "When I was a child, I knew that Su would do everything for me. All decisions, whether they seem ridiculous or not, are ultimately for my own good. ”
Sycophants are also wooden! Besides, when will she do everything for him?! Lin Shu wondered.
"So crispy, can you trust me too?!" Alfeld said seriously, "I can do everything for you. Whatever I do, it's never going to hurt you! ”
"! You used to say that all your personal property belongs to me, and all your pocket money is handed over, but the old lady still doesn't say anything about it, and she also sticks a lot of it yourself! "Lin Su's anger is hard to get rid of, and the past is unbearable.
“……”
"Roar!! The black panther suddenly felt that it was a mistake to stay by Lin Su's side, and the other party's brain circuit was completely different from that of a demon beast like himself.
"Ahem! All my possessions are yours if you wish. Arfeld laughed dryly. Swiped out a stack of papers from his spatial ring: "I can't investigate too much information about the demon clan, but there are still some clues worth paying attention to at present...... The current demon king's name is Ares, and he is a three-headed dog of hell that has not appeared since the battle of the gods on the continent. Bear the curse of evil spirits and dead spirits. That's why he was shot by the Elf Queen herself two thousand years ago, and resurrected with the power of the revenant......"
"What do you mean. That's why it betrayed the elves?! Lin Su realized.
The black panther changed into a human form, snatched the paper from Lin Shu's hand, and after reading the ten lines at a glance, the golden vertical pupils became more and more cold: "...... I've heard Ares' name for a long time, but how can there be a three-headed hellhound in the guardian vein of the elves?! ”
"That's not something I can know." Alfeld spread his hands: "These materials are the result of my inference from the prophetic records in the continental epic and the records of the elf race, whether it is true or not is not very certain, but it should be more than half accurate......" After a pause, he said again:
"The reappearance of the Three-Headed Hellhound has appeared in a prophecy, but that prophecy is considered impossible, so it is difficult to find in the records. And the previous queen of your elven clan led the elven clan to encircle and suppress a group of demonic beasts two thousand years ago, including a red-haired mutant demon dog raised by herself-Ares...... Coupled with what happened to the elves later, I can only draw this conclusion. ”
"Two thousand years ago...... the black brother narrowed his eyes, and after a long time, he said slowly: "It's a pity that I'm too young." There's no way to know for sure what happened during that time......"
Lin Shuhan: "......"
Alfeld was curious: "How old is the black brother?!" ”
Lin Su sweated: "......"
The black brother glanced at Alfeld and replied calmly, "1677." ”
"......" Yafei Delushan Waterfall Khan: "Ahem! All in all, I hope this information can be of little help to you. I will continue to send people to investigate the affairs of the demon clan, and I will tell you when there is progress. ”
"Okay." Lin Shu nodded. She didn't want to know where the other party's information came from, nor did she want to know what Alfeld had grown up to be. What should be taught, what should be helped, she had already done enough ten years ago, and the way to go must be walked by Alfeld himself.
Alfeld smiled: "Then I will go back to the palace first, and if I have time, I can come to the palace to sit and sit more." ”
His Royal Highness the little prince who recruited the peach blossom left, and the elf mercenary group was a lot quieter all of a sudden. Lin Shu let the investigation information of the demon clan and the elf number one and the black brother take a closer look. The three agreed that Arphayd's speculation was indeed the most reliable.
One of the most surprising is the question of the true body of the demon king Ares, three idiots who don't know the background of the continent went to the library to find ancient materials, I thought it could be helpful for investigation and research, but I didn't expect that the library of the other world was as weak as the earth, and everything mentioned was too long apart in history. All of them are praises of the victors and scandalization of the vanquished.
In the information, the three-headed dog of hell appears as a monster, and it doesn't matter if he is mad and does all kinds of evil, even his appearance is extremely ugly...... For the first two, Lin Su has no way to verify it. For the latter item, it feels very. Far from it, the Ares I've seen recently doesn't look like he's ugly, although he's not as handsome as an elf, and he's not as cool as a black brother. Not as elegant as Alfey, but it can be said that he is also a sunny personality oxygen man...... Don't bring such slander!
So I checked the results of the data all day. The three of them didn't get any useful information, and the only thing they learned was one thing - history! Always a praise for the winners.
How did a three-headed dog from hell with an impure identity and background infiltrate the revolutionary ranks of the elven guardian clan?! It's a huge puzzle.
And in addition, Lin Su and the three of them also don't understand that if the seal of the demon king Ares on the elf clan is revenge and killing, then who is the person who helped him behind his back, and killed the previous elf queen, and transferred the blood of the elf royal family to Ares?!
Obviously, not everyone can know how to use the tree of life, not to mention that if you want to get the tree seed, you have to wither the tree of life first, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
If Ares is guilty of homicide. Then the one who planned all this behind the scenes, first withered the tree of life, and then gave Ares the method of using the tree seed and the blood of the royal family. I'm afraid it's the more formidable enemy that the elves will face.
The advantage of the other party is that they know the elves very well, while the disadvantage of the other party is that they do not know the current elves very well...... Lin Su was very satisfied. Sure enough, his own education method is the one that keeps pace with the times, can withstand the test of fire, and will not be eliminated by the times......
"It would be nice if Conan was here, or Di Renjie Bao Qingtian Jintian and Sherlock Holmes...... It's good to have a casual one. After studying the conspiracy for several days, Lin Shu was finally defeated.
"Huh, you call me?!" The magician who passed by next to him asked in surprise.
“…… Who are you, you. ”
"Didn't you just call me by my name?!" The magician scratched his head: "This beautiful young lady, I am a first-class magic apprentice Sherlock Holmes. ”
"......" silently spit out two taels of blood, and Lin Shu was completely powerless: "You heard it wrong, I didn't call you." ”
Oh yes! Do you dare to collapse the world a little more?!
"Roar......" The black panther bit the corner of Lin Shu's clothes impatiently, as if urging her to hurry back to the mercenary group, he was also tired, he had been flipping through books in the library for a long time just now, it was indeed a rare experience for a demon beast...... After all, there has never been a Warcraft in the history of the continent that is famous for its academics.
"Wait, this young lady, you've dropped something." The magic apprentice Sherlock Holmes stopped the man and the leopard who had turned away.
"What?!" Lin Shu turned around, and just saw Holmes holding a very familiar small decoration in his hand: "Hey, I remember that this thing is a space bag......" looked at the young magic apprentice suspiciously, could this be a peer?! It's still very skilled, and it's on par with yourself......
"It just fell out of your arms. Maybe it's because you took it out and forgot to put it away in your clothes?! Holmes smiled sincerely.
“…… He really?! Lin Shu took back the decorative token and stuffed it back into the bracelet, and at the same time lowered his head and asked the black panther.
The black panther nodded silently, although he didn't remember if Lin Shu had taken out the token of this demon clan, but the young magic apprentice had been at least four steps away from his side since just now, and it was indeed unlikely that the other party stole it.
"Thank you so much."
"You're welcome." Holmes was a little embarrassed: "Actually, you don't have to thank me, but I have to apologize to you." ”
“???”
"If I stop somewhere for more than five seconds, something strange will always happen around me. For example, if you pick up a money bag, if you pick up a weapon, if you pick up a beautiful woman......"
"Picked up a beautiful woman?!" Lin Su was surprised.
"Yes, once when I was walking down the street late at night. A drunken beauty suddenly fell out of the alley, put her arms around my neck and told me a lot of love words, and then insisted on going home with me, and then she fell drunk on the street......" Holmes looked a little melancholy: "Because of this special physique, I feel that my life is really extremely bad." ”
“…… So are you still often fighting when you somehow win an otherwise strong opponent. If you accidentally run into some dirty old man pulling you to teach you magic, you often go to strange places when you travel in the wilderness, and see some strange unknown plants......"
"Huh. How do you know?! Holmes panicked and surprised.
“…… Not much, somehow I knew. Lin Su wiped his face speechless.
If you want to use the phrase in the game, this Sherlock Holmes is the kind of person who is lucky enough, and the typical yy protagonist reserve. But ...... "In that case, then why is your strength so bad?!" Lin Su asked curiously.
"Isn't it bad?! But my teachers say I'm very qualified. This progress is already very fast. ”
“…… According to the YY routine, after you eat those plants or are instructed by the dirty old man, not to mention the Great Magus at this age, at least the Great Magus should be able to do it. ”
"How can you eat things that you don't know where they came from? Maybe I'll get food poisoning! Sherlock Holmes had a serious expression of disapproval: "And although those old people do look down, I also give them some gold coins every time, do you want me to take them home?!" ”
"......" Lin Shu burst into tears, when a person in an extremely difficult situation has a rational mind, what a crashing and depressing collision it is!
"Roar......" The black panther became more and more impatient, he didn't understand why Lin Su was talking so vigorously with a stranger.
"Wait for the black brother, it'll be fine right away." Lin Shu first appeased the black panther. After thinking about it, he asked Holmes, "Do you have a job now?!" ”
"Yes!" Holmes looked proud: "I'm now a trainee magician in the Wizarding Guild, and I'll soon be a registered member." ”
"Do you want to change careers?!" Lin Su asked the point directly.
"Gah?!"
"I'll give you 300 gold coins a month, and you come to my mercenary group as an information officer. If you want to take on tasks part-time, you can do it. Lin Shu hesitated for a moment and added: "Of course, there is a probationary period for this." After the probationary period, if you are satisfied, you can become a full member of us, and the monthly salary will be 500 gold coins. "Using 500 gold for a lucky bonus amplifier, Lin Shu thinks it's worth it. But if the other party is not as easy to use as she imagined, 300 gold coins a month will be regarded as a fake for her.
"But the Magic Guild ......"
Lin Shu coughed twice: "I forgot to introduce myself, I am the elf queen." ”
So Holmes had no objection and was brought back to the elf mercenary group by Lin Su, although Elf No. 1 was puzzled, but he still went through the formalities for the other party as soon as Lin Shu asked, and then, Holmes coincidentally saw the information spread out on the table: "Are you studying the three-headed dog of hell?!" What a coincidence, there is an uncle next door to me who happens to know a little! (To be continued)
