Chapter 70 Encounter with the Dragon

After putting down the man in the gown, Lutga did not hesitate for a leap to the maiden in the center of the hall and untied the ropes that bound her hands.

Then, Lutga frozeβ€”

With crystal blue hair, there is no doubt that she is the "Laqi" in the mouth of the thief man.

I saw that the original tulle-like coat has now been torn to shreds. On the snow-white skin, there are many shocking marks left everywhere.

But this is all to be expected, and it is not enough material to shock Lutega. Instead, the moment he brushed his messy hair and saw the girl's face, he became speechless.

Falling in love abruptly - Lutega swells up with the illusion of a similar one, but it is not. To be precise, in Lutega's heart, the girl's appearance has always been his "object of love".

And when it comes to Lutega's love, there is only in the distant memory, the face of heroism and softness blended with each other-

"Flora......!?"

Confusion and vacillation spread in his heart, and the appearance of the girl in front of him was exactly the same as his deceased fiancΓ©e.

The girl raised her head and looked at Rutega with an expressionless face, she did not speak, but looked at Rutega's face with a scrutinizing gaze.

And this indifferent look also made the young nobleman recover from his shock and confusion.

Because it's different, it's a pair of eyes that are completely different from humans. Her golden pupils and flattened pupils appeal to the fact that she is not human.

The man in the dress who was knocked out before didn't say anything, and saw that all the scars on the girl's body were healing quickly at a speed that could be seen.

It's just that it didn't take a few seconds for it to change back to its original white and flawless skin.

"Hmm...... Can you stop staring? Even I'm going to feel shy. ”

The girl shrunk her shoulders and hugged her arms in front of her chest, and although her tone seemed to be calm, only her eyelashes couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Ahh............h You're a bit like an acquaintance, so anyway, put this on first!"

Only then did Lutga realize that he was staring at the girl's undisguised body with impunity. He said in a panic as he hurriedly took off his coat and draped it over the girl's shoulders.

The girl pinched the neckline of her coat to her chest with both hands, raised the corners of her mouth lightly to make a light smile, and whispered in Lutega's ear in a faint tone, "Hmm...... Sure enough, just like in the story, the protagonist will appear in a moment of crisis. ”

"Huh?"

"You...... It's the hero.。 ”

"Huh......?"

Since it was really a meaningless word, Lutga had to reply with an inexplicable expression.

At this moment, the blonde knight stepped up to his friend's side in three or two steps, and the familiar appearance that leaped into his eyes made him react similar to that of Lutga.

"Hey...... Why are you β€”β€”!?"

β€œ......!”

Probably because the voice was too rough, the girl moved vigilantly, carefully hiding in the shadows on Lutega's side.

"She shouldn't be Flora. Probably just, it looks alike. ”

Rout took a deep breath and said with certainty.

After all, his fiancΓ©e has been dead for eight years. Now, he won't simply mess around.

"Is that so? But it's too similar...... Oh no, if it's Flora, it's too young......"

Stan didn't think much of it, and quickly convinced himself.

But in fact, in Lutega's view, there are many difficult questions about this mysterious girl named "Raqi".

For example, why did this famous girl look for herself, and why did she meet her daughter Alice? Is Flora's appearance really just accidental?

"Anyway, are you alright?"

Just as Lutga couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and was about to ask the girl in detail, the blonde knight interrupted his thoughts and asked with a concerned expression.

"Hmm...... It's not a big deal, don't worry. ”

"But your 'Holy Ghost blessing'β€”"

"It's alright, Stein...... It's only a second. ”

As he spoke, Lutga looked around the hall where he couldn't bear to gamble.

Confused slaves, staggering fat and mercenaries, and a mess created by his friends made Stan scratch his scalp hard, and his face was also bitter. Even if he is not very good at using his brain, he knows that no matter what happens, it is more troublesome to deal with the aftermath.

"You shouldn't have ...... Kill them, right?"

"Ah, of course not. ”

β€œ...... Tsk, okay. ”

Stan smacked his tongue unpleasantly.

The Empire's strongest - the 'Legendary Blade' is at best a knighthood, an army, and a violent organ of the state. There is neither administrative capacity nor sufficient assets. And in the world, there are very few problems that can really be solved by violence.

These fainted men in front of him are honestly not good people. The corrupt aristocracy who indulges in the wine pond meat forest, the black-hearted wealthy businessman who squeezes the commoners and shamelessly collects wealth, and the foreign mercenary who seeks profit.

But it is undeniable that they all contributed to the city and the empire, at least on the surface, and were important figures in maintaining political stability. I don't want to admit it, but they are all indispensable talents for today's empire.

The fat pig aristocracy controls the political circles, the wealthy businessmen monopolize the market, and the foreign mercenaries maintain law and order. If any of them are lost, there is a risk that the city's operations will be flawed as a result.

That's right, even if they are villains, beasts who use the slave women in the hall as toys to manipulate and abuse. Rutga can't kill them easily, either. For Rutga, at least, for a lord who runs a territory, the meaning and necessity of their existence is self-evident.

If you indulge your momentary passion and act recklessly, you may be able to turn your eyes into a sea of blood. But in the end, the resulting pain will befall innocent people.

Take 10,000 steps back, and even the slave women who are being bullied will never be grateful to them for this. Because for them, there is no other means of survival except to rely on the undignified work in front of them.

This is the current state of the empire's distortion - no matter how many times you have seen it, it is really heart-wrenching, but there is nothing you can do about it.

"Anyway, clean up the mess first. ”

"What do you think, can you just leave it alone?"

"That's what I was going to do...... But you have also seen the situation of these nobles just now, and it is unusual to think about it. In particular, these drugs ......"

Before Lutga stunned the nobles present, their mental condition was already very abnormal, how to say...... There is no trace of human rationality, and they overeat, violence, and lust without restraint - like a beast immersed in instinct.

Normally, when Stan broke in, it should have caused panic.

"But what the hell is this going on?"

But as Stein said. As for the abnormal situation of these nobles, in fact, it has nothing to do with Lutga, and he can choose to ignore it.

"Just help me this time, Stan. ”

But for some reason, Lutga did not choose to give in, but prayed for help from his friends with sincere eyes.

"Anyway, at least tell me why?"

"No...... I can't tell you the reason yet, it's my personal problem. ”

"Cut, it's really self-willed...... Forget it, I really can't help you!"

Stan reluctantly relented and didn't ask any further questions. As a former colleague, he knew Rutega's character very well. Although he is usually knowledgeable, he is extremely stubborn in his bones. He has a good brain, but he likes to drill the horns alone.

In short, it's a friend who can't let go of his heart. Because Stan also knows that his own head is not smart. Even if he asks the ins and outs, he may not be able to give advice to Lute, and what he can do is at best to dedicate his physical strength and work hard.

After that, the two spent some time placing the unconscious people together, and carried out some emergency treatment on the wounded, and it seemed that they would not wake up in a short time.

As for the slave women in the field, they were also untied, but no one answered their questions or accosted them. Perhaps there are a large number of them who do not understand the imperial Chinese.

In short, none of them thanked the two of them, but all of them cast worried looks.

Exposed to the stinging gaze, Lutga couldn't help but sigh again. Indeed, in their eyes, they are not some saviors who fell from the sky at all, at best they are just thugs who suddenly break through the door.

Moreover, to put it bluntly, the slaves were not as miserable as they imagined.

The scars on their bodies were all fresh from tonight, shallow and light, and the physical exhaustion was only caused by drugs or a short period of intense "games".

Leaving aside the content of "work", it can be seen that their usual treatment is not bad, at least their health is much better than that of ordinary civilians. This is enough to show that the building in front of you is a special place for high-class customers, and the quality of the products is naturally guaranteed.

And while the two of them were doing this, Rathi stayed silently not far from the two, her quiet but with a certain passionate gaze, never leaving the figure of Lutga.

This made Lutga's back itch and he looked very uncomfortable.

"Luca, it's time to come in. ”

After ten minutes, after some modification of the inappropriate scene, he finally shouted to the poor young knight who was blowing cold wind outside the door.

"Uh...... Seniors, isn't this good...... In case the lords of the city know about it, our position is ......"

Although Lukka was still young, he didn't know how much better he was than Stan in terms of mind, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he instantly understood the meaning of the tragic situation in the hall, and immediately showed a panicked look that matched his age.

"Leave that alone, Luka...... There are some things that I need your help with. You know medicine and pharmacy, don't you?"

"Ah...... Hmmm!"

"Have you ever seen the medicine scattered here?"

"That's what you're talking about, please wait a minute. ”

Lukka crouched down, picked up a jar of container, and sniffed it next to his nostrils. Then, rub some remaining pink liquid with your fingers and gently tap it into the tip of your tongue.

Then, the young knight frowned deeply, revealing the mercenary's complicated expression, and spit out the medicine and saliva with a 'puff'.

"Do you know what it is?"

Rutega asked.

"Details...... It needs to be taken back for a more detailed investigation, but the only thing that is certain for now is ...... This medicine is by no means an ordinary flattering drug...... but ......"

As soon as Luka's words reached his lips, suddenly the main entrance of the hall was popped open, and then, dozens or hundreds of soldiers swarmed in, surrounding the four of them.

"Tsk! It's coming so fast! And there's no hint of closeness...... What the hell is going on!?"

Stan stepped out of the way and stood in front of everyone, a little anxious on his face. As the knight of the 'Legendary Blade', he didn't even notice the slightest movement before he was surrounded by hundreds of people, which is undoubtedly an anomaly.

In addition, the armor they wore was also completely different from the previous mercenaries.

They were dressed in the armor of the regular army of the Empire, but the shoulders of the armor were painted with the family crest of the nobles. As a rule, such soldiers are the private soldiers of the lord.

And in the rear of the troops, an elderly man with full vigor stepped into the hall with proud steps. This man is the lord of this entertainment city [Eitania].

"Can anyone explain to Benjue what happened?"

The lord raised his chin and asked aggressively, while the soldiers around him raised their halberds and pointed them at the four in the center of the hall in unison.
