Section 9: Epiphany of Abilities (Part I

"In the Trident family, the Aldrich branch has a vocation to stay in the land of the oath, discover talents, devote themselves to research, and prepare to move to a higher level of ability. Watching over the Holy King, that's just an incidental mission. Pfister said, "The duty of the Holy King branch is to govern the tribes of the West Coast and ensure that the foundation of the entire family is not threatened by hostile forces. ”

"We all do our part, we support each other, and for a long time, no one can bully us. ”

"The Dawn Council can't do it, and neither can the Radiant Church!"

"Unfortunately for the family, five generations ago, there was a fatal omission in the Holy King's lineage, a great war caused by greed, which not only buried a large number of armies and harmed many tribes at that time, but also lost all of them. The prince sneered: "Under the crusade of the coalition forces, not to mention the Saint King branch, the family manages the connections, system and foundation of the West Coast, all of which are destroyed in one fell swoop!"

"Coalition crusade?" Townsend asked, "uh...... What are they greedy for?"

"What other good thing could be for a king?" the prince looked at Townsend and said sarcastically, "Eternity." ”

“...... Understood!" Townsend almost didn't choke to death with saliva, immortality is simply a king's nemesis.

"And then?"

"Because the foreign enemy is beyond imagination, the sage of Dan tried his best to save the situation, and in the end, he could only return to Yintao City with some orphans and widows. ”

"The West Coast has been partially encroached upon by outside forces, but most of it is still there. Countless tribes are waiting to be fed, and there is no choice but to take over the responsibilities of the Holy King. The prince continued, "But the sage branch is not very good at management, and it is not able to resolve the internal upheavals caused by the defeat, and the decline has been achieved, and the undercurrent is turbulent...... So after a few generations, the Silver Sè Coast was left with what it is now. ”

Townsend opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he comforted him and said, "Your reputation is very high, and you will definitely be able to expand your territory." ”

"When have you ever heard that there are sages who have expanded their territory?" the prince's reply puzzled Townshend, "I am glad that this place is very good now." ”

Townsend was stunned, of course normal people have to take advantage of their prestige to fight the country, bananas, you are a watermelon, and the loser is not so defeated!

"Home xiǎo, few people, easy to manage. The prince saw Townsend's suspicions: "The family is big, and I don't know what tragedy is going to happen." ”

"You mean...... Those who are against you in the city?" Townsend immediately remembered the old factional forces in Silvertao City.

"They are descendants of the Holy King's line. The prince said, "The inheritance of the sage branch is actually very simple, as soon as the heir reaches adulthood, the sage immediately abdicates. Because for us, the field of paranormal is something worth devoting our lives to. ”

"This kind of inheritance habit is difficult for others to understand. And I'm unlucky, I don't have a father above, and I don't have a son below, so the descendants of the Holy King think this is a good opportunity to turn over, and suppress me, so I can go outside to fight for territory. ”

"Why don't they fight themselves?" Townsend was also helpless after listening to the prince's explanation, you live in someone else's house, eat other people's, use other people's, don't want to help others do something, but vainly try to occupy other people's family business, it's too shameless, right?

"If you have the chance, ask them for me. The prince's answer was funny, but not funny at all.

"Actually, I probably understand," said Townshend, "that as the rulers of the world, they must first dominate the street at their feet! ”

"It seems that you really understand, but with your current situation, you will not join this farce for the time being. The prince nodded and took out a warrant: "This is for you." ”

Townsend took it, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly, because the first line of the warrant was written in large letters--Silver Sè Coast decided to crusade against the bandit called "Thorn Rose", with the relevant bandit leader offering a reward.

"What do you mean?" Townsend glared and raised the warrant to the prince, "What do you mean?!"

"Got it wrong. The prince indifferently changed one for him, and then said lightly, "This is for you." ”

Townsend blackened his face and took the second warrant to find that it was written on it - the Silver Sè Coast Edict Thorn Rose to guard the Quelsa Plain, Townsend as King of Quelsa, and Vahu as the northern chief of Quelsa.

"You did it on purpose! You must have done it on purpose!" Townsend was a little crying and laughing, this method was indeed one of the ways to deter his subordinates, but with Prince Pfister's tone and attitude, it made people want to hit the wall.

In terms of Enwei Tongshi, the prince is obviously inferior to the president of Jacques.

"I said that our side is not good at management, and you still don't believe it. But no matter what, as long as you understand what it means. The prince didn't even feel guilty: "This is a copy, and the official paperwork won't arrive until you get back." By the way, you haven't taken the Quelsa Plains yet, this king has done a bit undeserved. ”

"You want me to take down the whole of Quelsa?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the Quelsa Plains should be a little eyebrow with your opponent, right?" Townsend said, but immediately put the warrant into his arms, joking, of course, the name of righteousness will be accepted first.

"You can think so. The prince nodded: "Cleaning up the Quelsa Plain is the only way out for the Thorn Rose, if you are strong enough and your power is developing smoothly, maybe one day, you will bring your army to Yintao City to join or crusade against me." ”

Perhaps one day you will come to Yintao City with your army, and join or crusade against me—these are the prince's words.

Maybe someday, I'll come to Silvertao with my army, and join or crusade against you—that's Townsend's idea.

The difference is that Pfister can speak without scruples, but Townsend can't, not only can't he speak, but he has to avoid the question.

"Your Highness, let me tell you the truth, you are indeed not good at management, how can you be so sarcastic? No matter how bad it is, I am also your nominal subordinate now, you should place high hopes on me, and encourage and take great care of me. Townsend does not change his face, and shows the characteristics of being able to be bought and hoping to be bought: "Invite me to dinner, strengthen my body, invite me to drink, and strengthen our friendship...... If you're in trouble, I'll naturally pull a bunch of xiǎo brothers to fight for you!"

"The paperwork has been given to you, you have to eat and do it yourself, and you have to drink and brew it yourself. The prince calmly said, "I am busy. ”

"Uh......" Townsend suddenly hung a black line on his head, he could make himself so big that he had nothing to say, this prince is really capable, and the most rare thing is that he is still serious when he says this, as if it is a matter of course! What prince is so political?

In desperation, he could only change the subject: "Your Highness is here just to give me a warrant?"

"It's just a distraction. Prince Pfister shook his head: "Take a walk, take a look." ”

"What does Your Highness see?" Townsend looked left and right, then at the prince, "Is it pretty?"

"It's not pretty, I've seen a crappy junior Ability Master in a hard fight, and I don't expect he will make it tonight if he doesn't use the Black-Streaked Night Stalker's abilities. "Prince Pfister doesn't give Townsend much face, and when it comes to abilities, this gentleman's head suddenly becomes smarter, not ordinary and useful, and his tone is much richer.

"It's a bad habit to look down on others. Townsend turned his head to look outside the watchtower and saw that the bald heads were eating barbecue, all with fierce faces and full of anger. He changed his position and sat down, shook his head and said, "I'm only alone, there are more than two hundred of these guys, although I didn't win all the games at the beginning, but it's not too ugly for me to hold on, right?"

The reason why Townsend softened his tone was because he thought of the strength of the other party. Since he can see his own state, the prince's ability attainments must be good, and it doesn't hurt to listen to other people's opinions.

"Well, it's good that you're going to survive. The prince does not seem to be a miserly man: "But it also irritates your problems." ”

"My problem?" Townsend couldn't help asking, "My abilities are faster and more powerful than others!"

"The speed of releasing the ability, the power of the ability, these are all + passion xiǎo details, and you can always improve it by practicing it a few times. The prince looked at Townsend, and although there was no expression on his mask, Townsend could feel the sincerity of the other party: "And your problem is big and deadly. ”

"Your Highness, please speak. Townsend sat up straight: "I'm listening." ”

"Are you a samurai with abilities, or a master with a sword?"

"Does this matter?" Townsend didn't care, "When it comes to fighting, weapons and abilities are just foreign objects, tools. ”

"It's not about weapons or abilities, it's about you. The prince shook his head, and didn't tell Townsend anything: "Okay, let me ask you more simply, are you a samurai, or a miracle master?"

"I ......," Townsend opened his mouth, but could not answer immediately, in fact he had never thought about such a question. I can grasp both hands together, and both hands must be hard, right?

"Maybe you don't know, there are samurai with abilities on the continent, and there are also swordsmans with abilities, and they are highly attained, but in them, there is no problem you have now. The prince said, "Utilitarianly speaking, the prospect of supernatural abilities far exceeds martial arts, and I think this is the reason why you have traveled thousands of miles to achieve special promotions." ”

"That's right, abilities outweigh martial arts. Townsend replied through gritted teeth, as he remembered the Harvey Town tragedy again. Kill tens of thousands of people in an instant, and the ability does surpass martial arts!

"You're going to be a Psychist?" the prince continued.

"That's right, I'm going to be a Miracle Master!" Townsend remembered the match of the Ninth Apostle, and the golden flame that filled the sky. If he doesn't learn the ability, how will he break this beast into pieces in the future!?

"Since you've decided to be an Anomala, why don't you trust it?"

Townsend stared at Prince Ffister for a long time, then grinned, but the smile was bitter.

―――――― the following does not count as words:

Last night was bitter and happy, I wrote more than 10,000 words all night and almost missed the update.

I'm starting to have a headache again, uh-huh, summon a monthly pass for pain relief!
