Chapter 66: The Blow to the Tarsus
Cliff looked at Shen Yi in a daze, and for a while, he finally shook his head with a wry smile: "This is indeed your style, but not mine." In life, all you want is fame and fortune. In this world of bloody cities, blood points and rewards are benefits, and the title of the strong is famous. The Last Patriarch...... This reputation is terrible. ”
"You care about your reputation?" Shen Yi asked casually, "I thought you weren't the kind of person who coveted fame." ”
They were already sitting on the sofa in the hall at this time, and Shen Yi asked as he poured a glass of red wine for Cliff.
Cliff looked at the glass of bright red and sighed, "It reminds me of the color of blood, let's change the juice." ”
Shen Yi snapped his fingers, and a robot butler had already come in and automatically changed the juice for Cliff. After returning from this trip, everyone in the Broken Blade Team has been equipped with one, and life has become more leisurely.
Cliff then said: "I know that you have a saying in China that you are indifferent to fame and fortune, but Shen Yi, you and I both know that it is bullshit, and no one can really care about their reputation." Fame is not just fame, it is a recognition of your actions. Think about the people we have come into contact with on the earth, they pay attention to appearance, pursue fashion, pay generous shots, pay attention to other people's impression of themselves, and even slap their swollen faces to become fat, for what?
Shen Yi pouted slightly, and Cliff had already continued: "You said you don't care about reputation, but can you really do it? Now you are the captain of the Broken Blade Team, with the reputation of a strong man who killed the general, everyone sees you with respect, in this case, if you are allowed to go back to the city and let others bully, are you willing? Are you willing to look at the white eyes of others?"
Shen Yi coughed lightly: "Actually...... I have never been bullied in the city, and no one has given me a roll of eyes. ”
Cliff froze: "Never?"
Shen Yi replied with a smile: "I'm not a dancing machine, I can't be guilty of everyone stepping on my feet, and I'm not a waste of wood that has been divorced, and I can't attract people's eyes." I don't pretend to be a pig, so no one will treat me like a pig. ”
Cliff was stunned for a moment, and finally smiled, "Okay, but you can't deny it, you wouldn't like that kind of encounter, would you?"
"Of course, all I did was to avoid that kind of encounter. Sometimes I wonder what is the point of living a person who is not welcome wherever he goes, and how can he be called a strong person? A strong person cannot have no enemies, but he cannot have only enemies. Those who do not know how to choose enemies are not worthy of the name of the strong. ”
"So you think the Dane family is a good choice?"
"You chose it for me. Shen Yi immediately replied shamelessly.
Cliff rolled his eyes helplessly: "In any case, fame is a recognition of a person's behavior, a sign of a person's success. There is one thing like you and me, that is, a person who bears the infamy of the whole world, no matter how powerful he is, he does not deserve to be called a strong person. Even if you can kill the whole world, but everyone avoids it everywhere you go, and you live like a piece of, no matter how strong you are, what's the point?"
"That's right, so I guess you don't like being called the last patriarch, and I can understand your feelings. ”
Cliff shook his head, "No, it's worse than that. I don't enjoy this notoriety after I die, I enjoy it while I'm alive. The Dane family will die out once and for all when I leave the city and enter the City Guardian sequence. And every time a new Guardian of the City enters, I may be introduced to the last patriarch of the former Dane family...... I inherited this while I was alive. ”
Shen Yi listened slightly, and couldn't help laughing again.
Cliff was a little annoyed and angry: "It's not funny at all, Shen Yi, Cato is dead, the patriarch is asking you for peace, this war can be over." I'm here to talk to you about this, and I promise you that Edmund will soon break away from the general sequence and become the guardian of the city, and then I will be the patriarch of the family, and with me, the feud between the Dane family and you will be written off!"
Shen Yi stopped laughing and looked at Cliff: "Then you have to wait until you become the patriarch of the family." Besides, it wasn't me who was looking for your trouble, it was yours who were looking for my trouble. So as long as your clan stops attacking me, nothing will happen. ”
"I know, but we need the blood of the undead! I don't have a fucking bloodline yet! You gave me the position of first heir, but you wiped out my bloodline!" Cliff yelled angrily.
"I guess...... That's why you're here, right? Not for an armistice, there's no such thing as an agreement at all, because as long as you guys stop attacking, there's no follow-up fighting. The so-called truce is nothing more than to get the blood of the immortal bird from me, right? to take what you want from me without paying a price with a verbal promise, a beautiful, unrealistic, meaningless truce?"
"Yes!" Cliff admitted, "I am the future patriarch of the family, the heir in the first line, and even if I take the blood of the immortal bird, I will use it, so I can only take this matter." ”
"Sounds like a good reason not to doubt you. ”
"I don't care if they suspect it or not, I just care if I can get the bloodline I want from you. Shen Yi, although you and I have interests, I believe that we can also be regarded as half friends, you won't embarrass me, right?"
"Of course. Shen Yi said as he took out the last immortal bird bloodline from the coat of arms: "The bloodline is here, the last bottle." But Cliff, you can't just take it away without paying any price. ”
"What do you want?"
"Meryl!"
Cliff's expression immediately brightened.
It took him a moment before he said, "That's impossible." ”
"Why?" Shen Yi's brows furrowed.
Although Meryl is the saintess of the Purgatory Sect, but there is no saint, you can pick another one, although the Purgatory Sect has invested in Meryl, but in the final analysis, her strength is still fighting in the mission world, and she earns it by herself, and the blood points spent by the Purgatory Sect on her are definitely not worth a bottle of immortal bird blood.
A first-in-line heir is just investing in a bottle of blood!
Cliff sighed: "It's not that I don't promise you, it's that Meryl has gone to the interstellar world. ”
"What did you say?" Shen Yi was taken aback: "How is this possible?"
Two months ago, Meryl was only a third-difficulty adventurer, how could she become a fifth-difficulty general in the blink of an eye?
Cliff sighed and replied, "It's Meryl's atonement." She confesses her sins before God and is willing to speed up her mission to the interstellar world. The family's stronghold in the interstellar world is under major threat and is in dire need of the support of a powerful priest. Meryl is no threat to you, so she has been on a mission for those days, moving up the ranks. The family sent a team to take turns to help her, and finally ascended to the interstellar world a few days ago. Now she was there fighting alongside the clan elders and patriarchs. So sorry, this condition...... I can't say yes to you. ”
Shen Yi was furious: "That has a great impact on her strength, her skills and exercises lack time to improve!"
The family will naturally compensate her, not to mention that this is also her atonement. ”
"Damn!" Shen Yi kicked the coffee table in front of him to pieces.
He looked at Cliff angrily, "Why didn't you tell me this earlier?"
Cliff shrugged, "I didn't know you were paying so much attention to her, and besides, I couldn't tell you that you've been in the wilderness for so long." ”
"You don't come to this set, there is Aiwa here, even if I am at the end of the world, you can find me. You just don't want Meryl to be in touch with me!"
Cliff replied, "Yes, Meryl's actions in the Dragon War are already known. The Cult of Purgatory can be defeated, but not humiliated. Meryl is a sectarian saint, and her betrayal is a disgrace to the sect. Sending Meryl away and letting her go to a battlefield more suitable for her to play her role is the most appropriate ending. You should thank me, Shen Yi, if it weren't for my efforts, she might have been executed. ”
Shen Yi looked at Cliff viciously: "Who do you think you are? You still have the right to execute an adventurer? The Supreme Council? No, you are just a group of adventurers, your sect is just an illegal non-governmental organization that is not protected by rules, no one has given you any power to execute anyone, let alone any so-called betrayal!"
"That's right. Cliff nodded and replied, "Unfortunately, not everyone understands this." No matter what the world, there is no shortage of human beings who are willing to be slaves...... Even if it's a cult, it must first have its own fanatical followers before it can be established!"
Shen Yi was speechless.
He sat back on the couch with a long sigh, glared at Cliff fiercely, and finally said, "What do you have to exchange?"
"What do you want?"
"An artifact. ”
"The lion opens his mouth!"
Shen Yi sneered: "Plus I won't obstruct your actions." ”
"What did you say?" Cliff was shocked.
Shen Yi had already replied leisurely: "Cliff, your biggest mistake is to play tricks on me. ”
He looked at Cliff and sneered, "It's been so many days since the attack on Independence Island, and with a general-level bystander here, it's impossible for the Dane family not to know that my teammates have used up at least eighteen vials of immortal blood. Knowing that we have used up so much blood, you still came to me for the immortal blood, which means that you have already guessed that I will keep at least one bottle for you. ”
He sat up: "In that case, when you come to me, you should directly state that you want to buy the bloodline, and you know that I will not sell it to you." Why, then, are you using an armistice as a cover? Isn't that redundant?"
Cliff's face changed slightly: "I just want to keep the price down." ”
Shen Yi shook his head: "No, you are the first heir of the family, and the bloodline is the benefit given to you by the family, so you don't need to pay this price." What's more, you are not the patriarch yet, even if you are the patriarch, the Dane family is not your private property, there is no need for you to play tricks with me for a little family benefit. I have only heard of people who sacrifice family interests to satisfy their own selfish desires, but I have not heard of those who sacrifice personal interests to satisfy family interests. And...... You don't look like that. ”
Cliff's face was blue and red, and it was uncertain.
Shen Yi had chuckled: "So...... The Dane family must have been planning something lately. You're worried, worried that I won't let you go, that I'm going to get in the way. So they asked you to come and talk to me about buying bloodlines under the guise of an armistice. That way, I can promise to sell you my blood, and I can temporarily cease the war, so that there will be no one to stand in your way, killing two birds with one stone, isn't it? It's a pity that they don't know that you don't need to attach conditions to buy bloodlines from me, as long as you ask, I will give you a bottle, and it doesn't matter, so this additional condition exposes your intentions. ”
Cliff's face grew more and more ugly.
He snorted, "It's really hard for you to be deceived. ”
"Tell me, what is the action?"
"I don't know. Cliff snorted: "The patriarch has sent someone else to be responsible for this matter, and for the sake of safety, only those involved in the operation know." But as far as I know, it doesn't seem to be directed against you. ”
"Is that so......" Shen Yi looked at Cliff to make sure he wasn't lying, and finally nodded: "Okay, how about a secondary artifact and some rune stones?"
"Shen Yi!" Cliff was already angry: "You said before that you could give me the bloodline!"
"OK, OK!" Shen Yi spread his hands: "I want the skill book of Tarsal Strike and at least twenty rune stones, I know the price is high, so I can give you another 50,000 points." ”
"This is no longer a negotiation but a transaction, the Purgatory Sect is not a platform for you to acquire scarce resources!"
"Do you think buying bloodlines is not a deal?" Shen Yi replied leisurely: "I have what you want, and you have what I want." I'll give you a reasonable price, and you'll give me a reasonable price, and that's fair! Cliff, without Meryl, it makes me feel bad. So you can't expect me to be generous in this matter!"
Cliff glanced at Shen Yi deeply, and finally nodded: "Okay, I can accept this condition." Then the armistice ......"
"If it's not for the action against me, then you have nothing to worry about. ”
Cliff nodded, and that was it. After a few more conversations, Cliff got up and left.
A day later, Cliff delivered the Tarsal Strike and twenty runestones.
With Decca Kane, the value of these runese stones is brought into play. However, it seems that the Dane family also has research on rune stones, and these rune stones were integrated by Decca Kane for a long time, and in the end, only a set of intermediate runes was combined.
However, it was enough for Shen Yi, and after Shen Yi added some money, he finally got another god-catching net.
Finally, the skill book of the tarsal bone strike was naturally learned by Hong Lang.
After mastering the blow of the tarsal bone, this guy's attack power soared to a terrifying level again, and with the fat man's undead bird summoning, it can be said that he is the best candidate to deal with the boss.
During this time, since Shen Yi could get the news of the mission world one day in advance every day, he had been comparing which mission world to go to.
Since Zhou Yiyu's Evil Ghost Knight bloodline is more suitable for development in the world of science and technology, Shen Yi and the others plan to go to a modern world of science and technology. Although the four difficulties are mainly in the Xianxia world, there are also modern technology and magic worlds.
In the morning, Shen Yi was studying after receiving the information of the next day's mission world, when suddenly a hint came from the bloody crest:
"Attention all Guardians of the Gods, number W2335 uses the mission command card, and the mission world changes. ”
"Today's mission, The Legend of Sword and Fairy 1. ”
"Mission Mode: Story Labyrinth. ”
