Chapter 365: Counting is Counting
"My lord, save me!" the little girl's name was Ai Ai, who was wearing the uniform of the Divine Bird Sect, and her face was covered with ash. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ Although she didn't know Lin Qiu and Lilith who were surrounded by the Kingdom Army, she believed that these two could save her.
Lin Qiu felt that things were getting more and more confused.
During the long night, Doron's whereabouts were unknown, and their elaborate plan to raid and capture Doren had failed. But at least he knew that Julius and Salfin had set up such a big battle to ambush him and Lilith, they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"Don't pretend any more, bar boy!" Even though Julius was held hostage by Lin Qiu, he had no fear: "You are the companion of the gray-robed man!"
"I said that I was just a kind person passing by!"
The Grey Men are the Chaos Cult, the Sith's helpers, who have come to the kingdom of Talon for Phoenix, and Salfin is trying to use this little girl to make an important deal with them who have been mistaken for their associates - which means that in their eyes, this little girl is worth as much as a captain!
Lilith...... Now that this is the end of the matter. β
Lin Qiu's muttering made Lilith's eyelids jump again, and she immediately guessed Lin Qiu's next decision.
It is better to be taken away by them than to let this little girl be taken away by the gray-robed man unknowingly.
- Lilith saw such a decision in Lin Qiu's eyes.
"Deal, leave Gianna to us, even if you're lucky today. Lin Qiu imitated the villain's tone in response to Salfin's request.
"But...... My name is Luna!" The little girl thought for a moment, but said her name anyway.
"I said your name is Gianna, it's Gianna!" Lin Qiu shouted, Luna was a little aggrieved by his yelling, tears rolling in her eyes. While Lin Qiu cautiously coerced Julius to walk towards Salfin, the latter also raised his eyebrows and pushed Luna forward to meet him.
"Julius, this plan is all your responsibility, and I will give you the truth to the Empress. Salfin glanced at Julius calmly, not at all annoyed by the failure of the ambush. He was surprised to see his main rival look so down-"Tell me up front, I'm not going to accept the condition of 'I'll put Julius back when it's safe.'" β
Salfin's right hand clamped on Luna's shoulder, perhaps because of the pain, but Luna's beauty was frowning and pitiful.
"Rest assured. β
Before he finished speaking, Lin Qiu gently pushed Julius, this lazy young man didn't expect Lin Qiu to let himself go in front of hundreds of Kingdom soldiers, so he was caught off guard for a while, and collided with Salfin. Taking advantage of this moment, he dragged Luna past and gestured to Lilith, who had been gaining momentum for a long time.
Although Lilith was full of reluctance, she still waved the sword in her hand, and the power of the wind attribute demon core was channeled out in an instant, and the hurricane turned into a natural barrier and swept the flying sand and rocks in the mountains and forests towards the kingdom army.
"Well done!"
Salfin and Julius heard the hurricane clearly.
"Mr. Salfin, you actually let them go!" Julius's mouth was wide open and he was about to stuff an egg, Salfin, who claimed to be the first strategist in the Kingdom of Tarun, actually let these two guys slip away in front of the eyes of hundreds of Kingdom troops...... Of course, the main reason for this was that he was captured alive by the other party.
Salfin asked meaninglessly, "How do you feel?"
"If it weren't for my sword being broken by that kid, he wouldn't have been so easy...... Huh?" As if he had suddenly discovered something magical, Julius suddenly raised his voice: "What is the origin of that kid's sword, that he can break the sword of the blacksmith?"
He used that sword to slay countless monsters that plagued the kingdom of Talen, and even hard things could not resist its sharp blades, but this time the situation was completely reversed.
"After about six or seven rounds, my sword cracked. He recalls for a moment and gives more precise details.
"Tsk, of course. β
"What are these words?Mr. Salfin, how are we going to explain to the Empress now?" Yurius felt a little worried when he remembered the cold face of Empress Ria. He had never been very good at dealing with people, let alone dealing with an angry empressβ"Or I'd better spend some more time in the forest to avoid the limelight." β
"If you hadn't scribbled on the face of that statue in the royal capital every time, you would have recognized that person a long time ago...... It is much safer to hand over this little girl to him for protection. β
......
"Wait a minute......"
Luna ran some distance with Lin Qiu and the two, she went to stop panting, and after staring at Lin Qiu with watery eyes for a while, she suddenly felt that Lin Qiu was a little familiar: "Have I seen you somewhere!"
"Of course. β
Lin Qiu patted his chest and said shamelessly: "I am a super popular actor, you must have seen my plays." β
Lilith rolled her eyes. If you insist on finding a loyal fan of Lin Qiu, it is estimated that there is only one Anna who supports him without hesitation no matter what decision Lin Qiu makes, and in this regard, even Rose, who also admires Lin Qiu, may despise him.
"That's not right!"
Luna shook her head vigorously. After the kingdom of Tarun became rich, the royal capital did have some famous bands or troupes from time to time to perform, and those trendy things were a gathering place for rich merchants, but she was a poor person, and she couldn't even afford hot toast, so how could she have spare money to enjoy a luxurious life?
She tilted her head sideways and thought, "I must have seen you in the royal capital." β
In fact, in order to commemorate Lin Qiu's great achievements, Liya erected his statue in the most conspicuous place in the royal capital - the first thing everyone who came to the royal capital saw was the glorious image. However, there is always a considerable deviation between the statue and the real one, and only those who are very familiar with Lin Qiu can connect the two together.
And after the second Great Conscription, the appearance of Julius made this even more difficult.
Every time he returned to the imperial capital, he would take advantage of the dead of night to make inhumane graffiti on Lin Qiu's memorial statue, because it was believed that Empress Ria's teacher was the real number one swordsman. This is purely the jealousy of an immature teenager.
It can be seen that Luna feels that Lin Qiu is "a little familiar" and how amazing her ability to recognize people is.
"Now that you're away from the Kingdom Army for the time being, you can tell me why those people arrested you, right?"
