87_87057 With Brightman's death, the eight witnesses in the stone house have different expressions.

The strangest look was Captain Wolfguard, who looked very surprised, but there was not only surprise in his expression, but also an element of surprise.

The eyes of the four caravan guards who looked at Bai Qi were full of disbelief and hatred, while others were surprised and faintly gloated.

Captain Wolf was the first to react, and he announced loudly, "I confirm in my capacity as the elder elder of Yasuo City that this is a fair duel. ”

The other seven Chosen Warriors also announced the fairness of the duel one after another, and even the four Chosen Warriors who hated Bai Qi had to admit that it was indeed a fair duel.

Next, Wolf announced the official start of the bloody battle between the Barins and Lucas.

On Wolff's orders, a group of guards poured into the stone house to escort Bai Qi to the central fortress of Stone City.

Bai Qi hesitated for a moment, feeling that Captain Wolf did not seem to have malicious intent, so he did not object, surrounded by guards, and walked into the central fortress of Stone City through the caravan guards of the Bahrain family who were looking at him with hatred.

Arriving at the command hall on the second floor of the fortress, Wolf invited Bai Qi to sit down, and asked the guards to bring him a large plate of barbecue and a large glass of ale.

Bai Qi was not polite, he grabbed the barbecue and gnawed it down.

Until now, Bai Qi still felt that what had just happened was too absurd, and he couldn't believe that he had gotten into such a big trouble because of a little conflict.

Wolf looked at Bai Qi, who was gnawing at it as if he had a grudge against the roast meat in his hand, smiled slightly, and sighed: "Brightman is an idiot, arrogant, arrogant, and reckless...... He has almost all the qualities that a fool should have, but it is the first time that he casually shouts the word "bloody battle", and I think that in Yasuo City, no second family dares to accept the invitation of the powerful Bahrain family to fight blood. ”

Speaking of this, he asked Bai Qi, "How much do you know about the Bahrain family?" ”

Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders and said vaguely, "It's not too much." ”

Wolf probably misunderstood what Bai Qi meant, and said with a smile: "Yes, as a Yasuo person, how can you not know about the Archon family?" ”

Hearing this, Bai Qi's heart couldn't help but sink, he had just entered the world of this mission for less than a day, and his general understanding of this world came from Adrian's intelligence, which was very rough, but he at least knew what the archon meant.

The political system of this world is somewhat similar to that of ancient Greece during the city-state period, where the ruling class of the city-state consisted of priests of the temple and the chosen warriors of the gods.

Every official priest and chosen warrior is eligible to become an elder of the city-state's House of Elders after making a certain contribution to the city-state, and can participate in the discussion of national affairs.

Both the Priesthood and the Chosen Warriors have their own leaders, with the head of the priesthood being called the High Priest, and the leader of the Chosen Warrior being the Archon.

The high priest held the faith and divine authority of the city-state, while the consul held the military and administrative power of the city-state.

Wolf didn't see the turmoil in Bai Qi's heart, and continued: "If you plan to leave Yasuo, I will ask you to go to Dulin in the west, Dulin and Yasuo are currently hostile, and they will definitely be willing to accept you. Or you can go further afield, where Yasuo's influence can't reach, such as the mighty city-state of Leony, or the dwarven city of the north on the edge of the human world, but you have to be fast and get citizenship of these city-states before the agents of the House of Bahrain find you, otherwise you will not be protected by these city-states. ”

"If you can get citizenship of a city-state, you can't avoid the assassination of the Bahrain family, but at least you won't be escorted back as a criminal."

Bai Qi put down the barbecue, frowned and asked, "Isn't the bloody battle sacred?" Is it possible that if you kill someone in a bloody battle, you will be treated as a criminal? ”

Wolf showed a sarcastic sneer and said: "You don't know how our great Governor Siso Bahrain, how he would accept a bloody war between his family and civilians like you, this is simply an insult to the Bahrain family, he will not hesitate to remove Brightman, the elder of the stupid family, and even remove him from the Bahrain family, to change the legitimacy of this bloody battle, and then fabricate charges to turn you into a criminal in Yasuo City." ”

It was only at this time that Bai Qi fully understood how much trouble he had caused inexplicably. But at this point, he calmed down.

He opened the character panel first, and the strange quest of the "Enemy of Bahrain" was still in his task bar, which made him want to smile bitterly, thinking to himself, maybe this is the punishment of the space for the reckless soldier.

Bai Qi closed the character panel, took a large sip of ale, rinsed his mouth, knocked on the table and began to analyze his situation, after a moment, he smiled and asked: "Your Excellency Wolf, do you mean that if I can obtain the citizenship of a powerful city-state, the Bahrain family will not be able to deal with me from the surface, so they can only resort to assassination?" ”

Wolf nodded, "That's true. ”

He asked, "Then what do I need to do to obtain citizenship of a city-state?" ”

Wolf said: "To build merit, with your strength, should be very soon." ”

Bai Qi frowned and said, "Isn't there a faster way?" ”

Wolf said: "Of course, donating a large amount of wealth or powerful weapons and armor to the temple of the city-state, as long as the value of your donation is enough, you can immediately become a citizen of the city-state." ”

Bai Qi thought for a moment, turned over his hand and took out Rogbidus's battle axe from the storage space and put it on the table, pointed at it and asked, "How many such weapons do you need to become a citizen of the Dwarf City?" ”

It didn't seem strange for Wolf to suddenly come up with such a big dick for Bai Qi.

He stepped forward, carefully observed the giant axe, and suddenly showed a look of surprise, and said, "This seems to be the inheritance of the Rogbidus Jackal tribe "Rogbidus Battle Axe"?" ”

Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is the guy I got with a group of warriors who cooperated to exterminate a litter of gnolls, I only know that it is very powerful, as for whether it is a rogby tomahawk, I don't know." ”

Wolf picked up the tomahawk and looked at it carefully for a long time, and said, "This is indeed a rogbidu tomahawk, are there any particularly powerful guys in the group of gnolls you exterminated?" ”

Bai Qi shook his head and said, "That group of gnolls only has more than thirty adult male warriors, and the most powerful is their chief, who I personally killed. ”

Wolf frowned, "It's been a long time since I've heard about this powerful gnoll clan, maybe they've declined. ”

He put the great axe back on the table and said, "If it's a dwarven city, this battle axe can barely get you citizenship, if it's other city-states, it's enough for two people to get citizenship, dwarves are the best crafted creatures in the world, they don't think much of the weapons forged by other races." ”

Bai Qi touched the cold face of the giant axe, and thought to himself that if this was the case, then the trouble he caused was not as big as he imagined, and his gains in the Rogbitus tribe should be enough for him and Adrian to obtain citizenship in the city-state of Leoni.

As for the assassination, if the Bahrain family sent killers according to their own today's appearance, it would be nothing more than looking for death.

His only fear now was that the Tiger would unite with the Bahrain family, which had connections and intelligence sources that the Space Soldiers did not have, and the Tiger had enough power to kill him.

Bai Qi thought for a moment and asked again, "How many Chosen Warriors are there in the Balin family?" ”

Wolf said: "The Bahrain family, including the consuls, has a total of fourteen Chosen Warriors and two sacrifices, but if you count the civilian sacrifices and Chosen Warriors who are attached to the Bahrain family, as well as the power of the small and medium-sized families who are attached to the Bahrain family, the sacrifices and Chosen Warriors that they can use privately account for almost half of the high-end combat power of Yasuo City, and the entire Yasuo City currently has seventeen sacrifices and one hundred and twenty-four Chosen Warriors. ”

Speaking of this, Wolf paused, and then said: "With the way the Archons act, since you can kill Brightman, the next time you will appear in front of you will definitely be more than three Chosen Warriors as powerful as Brightman. ”

After saying this, Wolf was a little surprised that he couldn't see any worried look on Bai Qi's face.

Bai Qi smiled noncommittally, and asked him instead, "Your Excellency Captain Wolfguard, it can be seen that you don't seem to like the current Archon and his family. ”

Wolf smiled wryly and said, "It seems that you don't know my last name. ”

Bai Qi was puzzled: "Your surname is very famous? ”

Wolf said, "My surname is Aaron. ”

Saying his surname, looking at Bai Qi's still confused face, Wolf's smile became even more sour, and he said: "It's only been twenty years, and Siso Balin has made people forget the surname of the previous consul's family. ”

Bai Qi was suddenly relieved and smiled slightly apologetically.

Wolf shook his head and said with a wry smile: "No wonder people forget about it, in Yasuo, the Aaron family has weakened to the point that I am the only one left as the chosen warrior." ”

Bai Qi heard from Wolfe's words that there must be some story behind this, and he asked tentatively: "How is it possible, how could the powerful Aaron family be weakened to this point?" ”

Wolf said: "Not only the Aaron family, but several other families that have had consuls, have been weakened over the years, in the past twenty years, the consuls and high priests have increased their control of Aaron City several times, but the number of Aaron City's Chosen Warriors and sacrifices has shrunk by a quarter without war, and what is even more terrifying is that the new Chosen Warriors in Yasuo City are produced twice as slowly as before." ”

Bai Qi asked, "Why is this happening?" ”

Wolf said: "The families that have produced consuls have undoubtedly had strong bloodlines, and all along, among human beings, these families with strong bloodlines, which account for less than one-tenth of the total population, have produced even more Chosen Warriors and priests than the Chosen Warriors of the common people, who account for more than ninety percent of the total population, this is the power of bloodline." ”

"By weakening powerful families that might threaten his rule, the Bahrain family is actually weakening the potential of Yasuo as a whole. One day, all of Yasuo will pay the price for his selfishness. ”

Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this.

After thinking about it, he asked Wolf again: "If you are so blatantly helping me, the enemy of the Bahrain family, aren't you afraid that the consuls will take the opportunity to attack your Aaron family?" ”

Wolf smiled disdainfully and said, "The direct bloodline of the Aaron family has long since left Yasuo, and the reason why I am still here is to see with my own eyes where our great archon will take Yasuo City. ”

Bai Qi nodded thoughtfully, grabbed the barbecue and nibbled on it again
