85. Black blood

On the way to the "black blood", the muse is still intoxicated with poetry and anthologies rather than auxiliary magic books, and the funny thing is that when preparing his personal belongings, this taciturn and gloomy young man actually carried a whole three wooden boxes of books, which unreasonably occupied nearly half of the carriage space. The most military strategist in the team, Si Mier, has been working on the topographic map all the time, marking the danger index with blue, yellow, orange and red, as well as some hills and canyons that must be detoured, she has a sensitivity comparable to cleanliness on the map, so the command and operation department of every battle can see the graceful figure of this Valkyrie. However, compared to the boring and tedious data warfare, Smir prefers to enjoy the classic picture of the confrontation of the legion, when she was the commander of the detachment, she had a vast and lofty ideal, that is, to lead her own Knights of Thunder, break the griffin and slay the dragon eagle, fly over the Olympus Mountains, and challenge the ace dragon knights of the Roman Empire, but in the battle with the Dark Southern Expeditionary Army, all 78 sisters selected by layer died. For anyone, this trauma is eternal and indelible.

Li Hao sat side by side with the emir and listened to the story of the traveling knight Tevez before his exile. Every child who has rivers and lakes in his heart especially likes to listen to the past of others. When Tevez recounted how Enobel had been cornered by order and reduced to heresy, Smeer stopped her work and interjected with her quill on her chin, "Can you comment on Dante in a few words?" ”

Tevez's eyes darkened, and the pain that he couldn't hold back deepened when he flashed, and he looked up and said, "I just want to say that any vitriolic comment would be comical and ridiculous to put on a dark archon with no limit to his ambitions, so I am not saddened by the fall of Enobel and his own tragic fate, hatred and anger, praise and belittlement, do not apply to a heretic knight." If the order couldn't even eradicate the grass around the nest, I'm afraid it would have been swallowed alive by the Titan and the White Rose. ”

Smeer replied with a meaningful smile, "You even admire what this dark archon has done as the culmination of your lifelong admiration? ”

Tevez thought for a moment and nodded leisurely. Li Hao and Emir were both silent, only the muse was still immersed in the words, like a carefree fool.

"Is this your faith?" Smier continued to ask, she especially liked this kind of emotional communication, and she was like two people on the battlefield.

"No, my faith is on horseback, and I fight for all who cannot fight." Tevez was categorical, and he transformed his emotions faster than everyone guessed.

"If I were a knight, I would never follow the Eight Virtues, like a missionary, and I would never spend my life searching for the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail." Li Hao suddenly interjected, and then added: "What I want to express is that in "Black Blood", all virtues and glory will become worthless, there is a complete and rigorous food chain system, and every character follows the law of the jungle, we have to learn something. ”

Si Mi'er was stunned, hooked Li Hao's sharp chin with her fingers, and quipped: "Cute little kitten, don't talk about the rules with my sister, I don't need to learn anything, I think the position at the top of the food chain must be very suitable for cultivating beautiful wild chrysanthemums." ”

Li Hao blinked, powerless to refute this female demon with teeth and claws, and stopped talking. His impression of Si Mier is basically a leap forward, a new height every day, so he is not overly amazed and puzzled by this very careerist values. If it is said that in the harbor arena, Li Hao's one-time ride is already quite coquettish, then what Si Mi'er is about to do has already gotten out of the scope of coquettishness, but is unreasonably crazy. Li Hao clearly knows that the greatest wish in her heart is to accumulate hole cards, cultivate power, rise secretly, regain the occupied territory, and let peace return to the Kingdom of Kot, which should be quite time-consuming and laborious work, which needs to be given up and paid, and even unscrupulous. That's why she will accept the heretic knight Tevez, will resolutely choose to leave the harbor where helplessness is higher than hypocrisy, will bloom in front of William III, and will agree to Li Hao's proposal to advance into the black blood, which is by no means the charm and soul that a mediocre woman should have. …

As the stars landed, the Werther carriage slowly entered the city, like a proud and lonely wolf, crawling towards the most famous 13 blocks of the entire city-state, where there is the most authentic "Arena of the Black Blood Brave", the famous slave market "Red Mary", the underground black market that antique dealers like to frequent, and countless open casinos and **.

It's a free city-state in the truest sense of the word, with no Magna Carta, no bloody trials, no dogs. The aristocracy of motherhood, everyone here has their own dreams, whether the result is purified or purified, they are happy to stick to it.

Unlike the aristocracy, the mercenaries preferred semi-lodging taverns, with a mixed atmosphere, reasonably priced drinks, cheap occupations priced in silver, and all sorts of violent and funny bustles to see. Of course, these are limited to those who can't get high-level badges, but for the independent mercenary Li Hao, the cumbersome badge system in the mercenary union is just a disguised means of accumulating money, because every time they advance to the assessment, the examiners will take the opportunity to ask for benefits, rather than handing over the hard-earned money to those people, it is better to keep more charming and sexy hotel proprietress for themselves.

Although the vault of Werther Manor has long contributed to the Holy War, it is difficult for Li Hao, who is good at tossing, to rearrange the good things in Werther Wine Cellar according to grade, category, and age, and sell them all to the trading market to exotic wine merchants, in exchange for about five bundles of gold coupons, that is, about 50,000 universal gold coins, leaving only a few bottles of amazing goods with a very epic sense of surprise, and Si Mier greatly satisfied his little greed. If it were her, it would be hard to imagine that such a scale of wealth could be squeezed out of this empty manor, and at the same time, she was impressed by Li Hao's wine recognition comparable to that of a court bartender. But she certainly didn't know how many professional books this mercenary gentleman, who was strong in force and free in character, had read through the professional books and was as obsessed with it as the muse memorized a thousand chakra formulas.

Everyone has an irreplaceable special meaning when they live, whether it is nobles and commoners, or generals and soldiers, there are places where they can only look up, and there are places that are looked up to by others.

Just as the Emir's favorite hero is the Muse Empress, and the Muse's favorite hero is the Mystery Garden badge picker, Custer, the most legendary headmaster of the Lista history. And the same great two people, one faith war. A knowledge of faith. When they stood on the peaks of the same height and looked at each other, it turned out that everyone was as small as a speck of dust.
