Chapter 2: Mercenary Lu Qing (I)

"What is this marksmanship?!" Nagisa was slightly stunned, then reacted and praised loudly, "Your Excellency is really good marksmanship!" However, although your marksmanship is a combination of fiction and reality, there is actually a routine to follow - look at the sword! ”

Nagisa screamed, and suddenly attacked a sword in each of the three directions. "Dang" swords and guns collided, and the shadow of the gun disappeared. Nagisa had a chance to take a closer look at the opponent's weapon. I saw that the spear in the man's hand was silver, with a dragon pattern coiled body, and the head of the spear was cold.

"Good gun, worthy of your Excellency's skillful marksmanship!" Nagisa praised sincerely. From the head-to-head battle just now, Nagisa can clearly feel that the skill of the person in front of him is strong and extraordinary. And in addition to his old and spicy moves, he still consciously retained some, which shows that he is not ruthless, and he is a talent worthy of his own use.

"The sword in your hand doesn't seem to be ordinary, and it doesn't appear to be the slightest damage when it collides head-on with my spear. And your strength is not bad, you can actually see the reality of my gun moves, and quickly counterattack. The man glanced at Nagisa a few times and said with a light smile, "Well, you are indeed different from most noble children, and I am becoming more and more interested in you." ”

"Thanks for the compliment."

"Well, then, let's introduce myself first-my name is Lu Qing, a person from the Middle Kingdom. Because he is extremely disappointed by the corruption and incompetence of the princes and nobles in the country, his current profession is a chasseur, which is similar to the mercenary you just mentioned. ”

"Huh? Your name feels ......" Nagisa was a little puzzled.

"Ah, that's right. I am half Oriental, so my family gave me such an oriental name. Lu Qing waved his hand, "If you don't like this name, just call me Zack." Your turn. ”

"Hehe, okay. Since Your Excellency is so open and honest, it is inconvenient for me to hide it. I am indeed the son of a nobleman in the Middle Kingdom, so you can just call me Nagisa. The new KingArthur sent me to study at the Templar College when he took the throne, and I have now graduated and returned home. This mission is to be ordered by King Arthur to exterminate the Remnant Cloud Wild Pirates, and then go to the front line to support. ”

"Sure enough, he is not an ordinary person, and he can be directly commanded by KingArthur. I'm sorry, but what I said and did was so rude. Lu Qing bowed slightly to apologize.

"It's okay, this is exactly what you don't know if you don't fight." Zhu Zhengse said, "Brother Lu Qing, just now you said that the reason why you joined the hunting industry is because of the corruption and powerlessness within the Middle Kingdom, but I believe you should have seen that since the new KingArthur, Higlind von Pendragon, came to the throne, these unhealthy trends in the country have been dealt a heavy blow in the past few years, and the overall administrative efficiency of the country has been greatly improved, and a large number of former corrupt officials have been put on trial, isn't it?" ”

Lu Qing listened carefully to what Zhu said, pondered for a moment before speaking: "What you said is indeed true, I have been engaged in hunting for nearly ten years, and I have also seen the changes in the Middle Kingdom from the perspective of this profession. The unhealthy tendencies that used to pervade the officialdom of the Middle Kingdom have now changed a lot. ”

"So, why didn't Brother Lu Qing choose to return to the Middle Kingdom? It should be your wish to contribute to the new KingArthur and the new Middle Kingdom, right? ”

"Brother Nagisa said it lightly." Lu Qing sneered, "Do you know that many of the tasks that the hunters take on are not visible, and I am no exception. Aren't you afraid that I'll do some small things in the dark? ”

"After all, it's all in the past, and you have no choice but to do it, so don't go through the old accounts now. You can't just live in the past, so you might as well take a long-term view, right? Now that the two countries are at war, it is the time to employ people, Brother Lu Qing has such a good ability, does he really plan to stand by and watch? Nagisa continued, "As for what you are worried about, I understand. Rest assured, I still have a say in front of the Middle Kingdoms and KingArthur. And if you can make it to the war against the Desert Empire, KingArthur will definitely be guilty of you, even if I don't need to say it. ”

"You're really interesting, and you actually moved me in a few words. Hahaha. Lu Qing laughed heartily, "Okay, anyway, there hasn't been any profitable business recently, so I'll stay with you for a while." But what did you just say about 'us'? ”

"That's right, I have two companions. Both of them are also excellent students of the Dark Sanctuary Academy, and they are my younger siblings. The academy was temporarily closed due to the war between the two countries, so I came back with me, and I also planned to join the army and serve my country. ”

"No kidding, how can this snow rabbit be enough for four people?" Lu Qing pointed to the corpse of the snow rabbit that had just been thrown off by Nagisa on the snow, "You wait a minute, I'll go to my resting place and bring all the food and drink." ”

"Then I'll help you?"

"No, I'll drive the body faster, you go back and join your companions first, so they don't have to wait." Lu Qing waved his hand, "Leave a few conspicuous marks, and I'll go directly to you later." ”

"Body?!"

Before he could ask, Nagisa saw Zach take his body out of the storage system. The body of this aircraft is about eight or nine meters high, and the whole body is basically painted white, and a few details are sporadically painted red, the kind of fiery red that makes people feel as if it is burning.

"What is this mech?!"

"The unit number is ARX-8, but I prefer to call him the Flame Sword."

"Exactly what the name suggests! Then I'll go back to my companion first, and I'll see you later. With that, Nagisa summoned Niu Gao, loaded the booty, and drove the body out of the snow forest, flying towards the place where Catherine and the others were resting.

"Niu Gao?!" Zach was taken aback when he saw the model of the airframe displayed on the airframe's radar, and soon his eyes showed excitement, "Haha, it's getting more and more interesting!" It seems that with this guy Nagisa, it will definitely not be boring. ”

Nagisa's mech had just halfway through the flight when he met Catherine and Pheron. It turned out that the two of them heard the sound of the body advancing rapidly and thought that something was wrong, so they hurriedly piloted the body to fly out to meet Nagisa, just in case.

"Whew, scare me. Thought you were fighting someone here. Catherine complained.

"Hehe, don't worry. I was afraid that you would be in a hurry, so I drove the body back. ”

"By the way, why have you been around for so long?"

"Let's go down and talk about it, it's too dazzling now."

With that, the three of them landed at the rest point and stored the body. Then Nagisa told in detail how he met the mercenary named Lu Qing from beginning to end.

"This person actually has an exclusive body? Isn't he a hunter? Catherine and Fern were surprised.

"Rest assured, there's nothing wrong with his identity. On the way back, I called up the body recorded in the Middle Kingdom through the system, and I did find the body just now, and the owner of the body is indeed called Zack, that is, Lu Qing, the appearance and age experience are all matched, it must be the same person. ”

"Oh? What is the origin of this person? ”

"This Lu Qing was born in a small aristocratic family in a remote area of the Central Kingdom, and he was also a well-known pilot in the past, and once served as the squadron leader of Wang ****. However, he left the kingdom to become an independent mercenary - guess what his body is? He is the master of the Flame Sword. ”

"Flame Demon Sword?!" Feren didn't quite know, but Catherine was really surprised, "Isn't he the one who was once qualified to be a Star Cup Knight before Saber took office, but then gave up the opportunity to compete?" Saber also greatly regretted this, saying that he was a talent, but unfortunately Saber had not succeeded to the throne at that time, and had no power or position to keep him. I see, it turns out that he left for this reason......"

"Ah, yes, it's him. But what I didn't expect was that he was so young, he looked like he was in his twenties - listen, here he is. ”

Catherine and Pheren looked up and saw a plane flying above them and slowly descending. A young man came from the cockpit, "Yo, hello, my name is Lu Qing, you can also call me Zack." ”

"Hello, Zach senpai. My name is Felenbach, and you can call me Ferenbach. ”

"You don't need to call me senior, I'm not that old." Lu Qing hurriedly shook his head, "Just call your name directly." ”

"Huh, I didn't expect you to be the famous Flame Demon Sword, and you have a very high status in the hearts of the commoners of the kingdom. I've always adored you. Pheren said sincerely.

"Okay, okay, let's not mention the things of the second era, it's embarrassing to think about it. I'm hungry, so let's stop talking. Come on, come on, light a fire and barbecue. ”

Nagisa and Lu Qing disposed of the snow rabbit with the knife they had brought with them, while Faeron and Catherine lit a fire with a dry wooden branch. Then the four of them chatted while eating, and Lu Qing told the other three a lot about what he had seen and heard in his career as a huntsman, and he was also full of praise for Nagisa's cooking skills. After eating, Lu Qing and Nagisa extinguished the fire, and the four of them marched forward on foot, and finally arrived at the town of Buren before dark.
