Chapter 26: The Epic of Landa
He stuck out his tongue and licked the little bit of blood that had fallen on the corner of his mouth.
The clown looked at the disfigured corpse at his feet, and there was a hint of boredom in his eyes.
"Hey, it's really boring, the rotten fruit is like poison, and it's really invigorating.
However, if there is enough of it, the taste will be improved a bit.
This man's gang seems to be called a circus, but it fits my old profession very well. ”
As he spoke, the clown reached out and gently wiped his face with his hand.
Suddenly, the flesh on the clown's face began to tremble slightly.
In the blink of an eye, the red nose and pale face that originally belonged to the clown disappeared in an instant.
Instead, it was a handsome face with red phoenix eyes and a little feminine.
And on the left side of the face, there is an inexplicable line that makes people feel dizzy when they see it.
"It's best to use your own face, so that you can enjoy the pleasure of killing. ”
Speaking of this, the clown's face showed a perverted smile that fused with excitement and bloodlust.
At this moment, the clown's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the sky, a hint of gloom flashed across his face.
"Hmph, I actually chased here, it's really ghostly.
One day, I will pull your so-called God out of the glorious heavens.
When the time comes, I'll see if you still have such a strong faith. ”
I don't know if it was because I imagined the scene, but the clown's expression became excited again.
Then, humming a nursery rhyme, he faded into the shadows of the alley.
At the moment when the clown disappeared, two figures with white light fell from the sky.
The two of them stood in the alley, looking at the scruffy man's unscrupulous corpse on the ground and the empty alley.
Both of them's faces turned a little bad.
Especially the younger one among them, the white light on his body was constantly stirring, as if suppressing anger.
Seeing his younger companion behave like this, the older middle-aged man immediately opened his mouth.
"Dahlsius, the Joker is a powerful man on the Church's heresy list, and he is known for hiding and running away.
We're here this time so that the Joker doesn't have time to look for items to heal his injuries.
So even if we don't catch him, as long as we keep him on the run, we'll be done with the mission.
When the archbishop of the archdiocese comes, even the most famous clown on the heresy list can only be purified.
So I hope you don't be in a hurry, otherwise your mentality will be unstable, which will affect your promotion. ”
The young man, named Darkus, clearly had great respect for the middle-aged man.
Therefore, when the other party finished speaking, Dahlsius closed his eyes, and after a long time, he gradually calmed down the fluctuating holy light on his body.
"Senior Lucian, thank you for your guidance, I will pay attention to controlling my emotions in the future. ”
Nodding, the middle-aged man Lucian continued to speak, "In that case, let's get out of here."
The clown is still in this city, and with his character, he will definitely cause great slaughter.
So we still have a chance to find him, and as for this, leave it to the ordinary people of the world to deal with. ”
After speaking, Lucian took the lead in turning into a white light, which instantly bloomed and rushed straight into the air.
Seeing this, Daseus did the same, turned into a white light, and followed Lucian closely.
No one knows the news that the clown, ranked 327 on the heresy list, has come to Far Mountain City.
The news of the arrival of Bishop Lucian of the second rank of the priest of the church and Bishop Dalcus of the first rank is also not known.
Therefore, Yuanshan City is still as calm as ever, without the appearance of half a wave.
Al hid in a small bookstore that was smaller and more dilapidated than the elder Howard, and managed to avoid Huber and the others.
When he saw that he had escaped those people, he finally got his mind out and began to read the books in this small bookstore.
I have to say that there is a reason why this small bookstore has become crowded.
This can be seen in the dust that adheres to the bookshelves and books.
As for the books on the shelves, they are basically epic stories, and there are a few books full of partial knowledge.
Al kept scanning the shelves of books, and wanted to buy one as a thank you for hiding in the bookstore.
But after reading it for a long time, Al didn't see even the slightest book that interested him.
Shaking his head slightly, Al decided that he would simply buy a newspaper in front of the small bookstore as a reward.
However, just as Al turned his head, his eyes inadvertently swept over a book called "The Epic of Landa".
This "Epic of Landa" has a black cover throughout, and it looks unremarkable.
And it's so dilapidated that it's the kind of thing that makes people automatically ignore it at a glance.
If it weren't for the fact that Al's mental power jumped inexplicably when he glanced at it.
Then it is impossible for Al to find this extremely shabby-looking book.
Taking a step forward, Al pulled the Epic of Landa out of the shelf.
Then I looked through it a little and found that the content in it was just a novel story with some sentences that didn't make sense.
However, Al knew very well that his mental power was beating just now because of this book.
So, even though he didn't see anything special for a while, Al decided to buy the book.
Anyway, according to Al's estimates, this book is unlikely to have much money at all.
The owner of the bookstore is an old man in his prime, and when Al takes the book over to pay the bill.
The old man didn't look at it, and just said a silver coin.
The price of a silver coin is not too expensive, but it is still a bit too high for a book that is so worn out that it almost falls apart.
However, Al didn't have the heart to bargain with the old man, threw the other party a silver coin, and left with the book.
Placing the book in his backpack behind him, Al looked around and decided to return to the Leo family's mansion.
After all, tomorrow is the day of Al's exam, and Al needs to go back and have a good rest and then prepare for the exam.
Walking out of the bookstore and through the alley, Al once again found himself in the streets frequented by decent people in Far Mountain City.
The journey was peaceful, but as Al got closer and closer to the Leo family's mansion, there was a faint sense of crisis in his heart.
Sure enough, when El was still about a hundred meters away from Leo's family, he directly saw those people in front of him.
Among those who stood in El's way, the leader was undoubtedly none other than Randy, the youngest son of Viscount Terra.
As for why they intercepted here, there is no doubt that Randy's purpose today is to get back to the previous field.
Seeing Al's arrival, a sneer appeared on Randy's face.
Immediately after, he stepped forward and said directly: "Al, I really didn't expect that you would actually fall in love with the city lord Leo.
I thought that you would become a mourning dog when you were kicked out of the house by your stepmother, but I never thought that it would let you know the nobleman.
However, others are afraid of Lord Leo, but I, Viscount of Terra, am not afraid of him.
Today, I just want to share the winner or loser with you, win or lose, life and death, everything depends on personal ability. ”
As the words fell, Randy took off a white glove from his hand and threw it in front of Al.
This is a standard routine for the nobles to challenge, and Al can choose to take it or not.
But if he doesn't, then the reputation of the Grant family among the nobility will become very bad in the future.
Honor is life, although this is not as important as it used to be.
However, if the honor is really lost, then the Grant family will not be able to move an inch among the nobility in the future.
Al himself didn't care about these things, but he couldn't care less about his father.
occupies the body of other people's sons, and they must do what other people's sons should do.
Therefore, when Al saw the white glove that fell in front of him, he directly ripped off the strip of cloth from the cross sword.
Holding the cross sword in one hand, Al looked at Randy and said, "If you want to fight, then fight."
It's just that I hope you won't be thrown out directly by me and lose face this time like before. ”
As soon as these words came out, Randy's face suddenly became gloomy.
He has been smooth sailing since he was a child, and the only time he suffered from his peers was when he was thrown out by Al.
This makes Randy, who has been extremely proud since he was a child, unable to bear this at all.
Without saying a word, he directly pulled out the cross sword inlaid with gold trim from his waist.
Then, Randy held the sword in both hands and slowly raised the cross sword, and the momentum of the whole person became sharp.
Al held the sword with one hand, and instantly turned on [Focus] to become calm and calm, and Tarzan collapsed forward without changing color.
The martial arts of the Holy Sword Empire are prevalent, but it is not always possible to see two people competing.
Therefore, when Al and Randy started to fight, the surrounding pedestrians gradually became onlookers.
Of course, for Al, none of this was on his radar.
At this time, all he had in his eyes was Randy Terra, who was gradually approaching in front of him!
With both hands clenched at the sword, Randy Terra gradually came within range of both sides' attacks.
Almost instantly, without warning, Al and Randy slashed their swords at the same time.
Al's sword was nimble, and he didn't have any tricks, just stabbed at Randy's vital point.
Randy's sword, on the other hand, is calm and atmospheric, and obviously has a good swordsmanship heritage.
The cross-swords in their hands slammed into each other, letting out a piercing sound.
Immediately after, the cross swords in the hands of the two collided wildly, and sparks bloomed.
It's just that with each collision, Al takes a step back, and Randy takes a step forward and closes in on Al.
After all, in terms of knightly cultivation, Randy is much, much better than Al.
Whether it's strength or speed, El is lacking in Randy.
In the long run, Al knew that he would lose the opportunity and fall into a complete disadvantage, and eventually be slashed by Randy's sword.
Therefore, Al immediately made a decision, and put his troops to death.
