Chapter 38 Pre-job Training (I)
Harpy and many of his brothers have been in a very complicated mood these days, and they have been working under Xiao Yi since Endrick left. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 At the beginning, they saw their position very clearly, although Xiao Yi paid them salaries very respectfully, but everyone knew in their hearts that this was just a big step sent to them by the other party's kindness, no matter how much they disguised it, they couldn't change the essence of being defeated and becoming prisoners.
There is no shame in being defeated as a man with perseverance, it is shameful that there is no determination and courage to take revenge, which they think they have, but it seems to be of no help to the current situation. In fact, there are actually four or five of them, including Harpy, who are low-level apprentices of swordsmen and boxers, and Harpy is only one step away from becoming a full-fledged professional, so they are so brave and fierce that they have never lost their fighting spirit even if they have been defeated for a while, which has made them famous in this Dongxia City.
On the same day, Xiao Yi was defeated as an alchemist, although he was completely defeated, but there was always a trace of unconvincing thoughts in his heart, of course, if Xiao Yi was a mage, they would never dare to have this thought, but it is recognized that the alchemist who has no combat power, he may not have a chance to fight again when he is ready! However, the entourage named Zod seemed to see the signs of their restlessness, so he made an excuse to train them, and after some abuse, they understood how ridiculous their ideas were, and the gap in strength was so big that even the most visionary Harpy couldn't see clearly, and after Zode clearly admitted that he was an eighth-order thief and was once a defeated general under Xiao Yi, they never dared to have any disrespectful thoughts about their nominal employer.
They are just bastards but not bastards, fortunately, right and wrong can be clearly distinguished, a person with extraordinary strength can have such a measure is very valuable, and Xiao Yi has never regarded them as subordinates these days, as he promised Endrick to give them a job that can be registered.
Harpy and his little brothers loved it, or at least they were really happy that they were able to earn money with real labor again. Of course, since Xiao Yi is generous, they will also try to make themselves worthy of this salary as a reciprocal move, but from now on, it seems that they have not completed the new work assigned by the 'boss' very well.
Looking at Xiao Yi, who was writing and drawing in white clay strips on a black tablet said to be made of obsidian, Harpy sighed from time to time that the school life he missed when he was a child because he had to work hard to live was fully experienced in adulthood. They didn't have time to complain to the previous leader of the craftsman about the value of this thing called the 'blackboard' by the boss during the meal, but devoted themselves to the content listed above, because their frantic boss asked them to remember those long and new things every day, and if you can't pass the exam before dinner, then I'm sorry!
You can only watch the other people feast on the food they bought with a lot of gold, the boss may give you a few loaves of bread in the evening when your grades are not too bad, and if you get too bad or draw puppies on paper like Marven did last time, you will wait to be tied up and starve for the night!
Of course, this is not the most painful place, when they and others have more flexible brains and find that these things called by the boss "standard operating procedures" seem to be talking about how to serve people to eat, they immediately asked this question, and after getting Xiao Yi's affirmative answer, these people almost ignored Xiao Yizod's terrifying strength and blew up on the spot.
Let a bunch of gangsters be restaurant waiters to serve others to eat, and he can figure it out!
Listening to the noisy noise and complaints, Xiao Yi left a sentence expressionless and turned to leave.
"If any of you are still willing to live the life before, I will not stop you from returning your freedom, but if you want to stay, you will obediently learn to work and work, and I will never raise idlers!"
Looking at Xiao Yi's back as he turned to leave, Harpy actually felt a little lost, just like the kind and beautiful girl who was cold to him for the first time after he wanted to pursue the dock owner's daughter and beat away two other potential rivals when he was fifteen years old, he could really feel a disappointment from the other party, and his heart ached for no reason.
That night, he had been very restrained all these years, and he used wine to find that long-lost sense of intoxication, but why was he still so uncomfortable in his heart. Just as he was about to pick up the last bottle again, a hand reached behind him and snatched the bottle, watching Zod sit next to him and pour the remaining wine in one go, Harpy just chose to lower his head and was silent for a long time.
"Can't think about it!" Zode's tone was very calm, which made Habido kill a little surprised, and the usual sternness when he trained them was different from the hanging Erlang when he was by Xiao Yi's side, at this time he was rarely serious.
"You know what I used to do!"
"Well, I heard the boss say, I also know the name of the 'Weeping Blood Wolf Warrior Regiment', although my strength is not good, I used to want to be a swordsman, I can still hear about this, the nine-star difficulty rating in the bounty capture mission in the adventurer's guild can tell everything, but what do you mean by this? Do you still think that any of us dare to resist? ”
Zod smiled at Harpy's resentful words, not impressed.
"But the Boss didn't tell you how we were exterminated!"
"Isn't it the result of a battle between Duke Carry's retainers and you in the suburbs?" Harpy was finally a little interested when he heard the secret.
"That's just a cover-up, in fact, we beat the Duke's palace escort to a very bad place, and we have also tied up his only son to demand a ransom!"
"How could that ......?"
"It's very simple, but I was killed by the boss alone! Or do you think a person like me can be a subordinate!"
Hissing and taking a cool breath, Harpy felt that the wine suddenly woke up halfway, although he knew that Xiao Yi was a person with great ability, but he didn't expect to greatly underestimate the other party's level.
"Of course, that's not the point, the reason why I'm willing to do this is because the boss kept all my brothers from the chief of guard of the Duke's Palace, and then he kept me in front of the Duke himself!
"Today, maybe I drank wine and remembered the brother who died before and you wasted so many words, they are all for the boss, you don't have to always call me Your Excellency, I really want to count that I should belong to the boss under the foreman, you are willing to call me the left head in the future, you don't know that when the boss said that he wanted to take me with him, his subordinates complained for me The boss also said this to you today, maybe I look less beautiful now, but I live more at ease than before, at least I no longer worry that someone will come to arrest me for the crime, I can sleep peacefully every night, and get up with a smile the next day to face the sunriseDon't you think this kind of life is the most beautiful?"
"There is no shortage of brave people in this world who want to start all over again, but there are not many people who are willing to give you this opportunity, so I can only tell you not to miss the opportunity you should seize, and the rest is up to you to decide!"
Harpy was lost in thought, not even noticing Zod's departure, the cool night breeze ruffling his stubborn hair, just as his heart swayed slightly now.
