Chapter 228: Sword Drawing Ceremony

Kevin's words were relayed to all the kobolds by the translator, and the crowd was enthusiastic for a while. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe war-torn civilians and soldiers, the underclass, who never had a chance to be promoted, and the devout believers are all crazy. For them personally, it was a metamorphosis from the lower commoners to the upper class, a better way to get closer to God's fucking. For the whole, it may also be the way to end the war.

Of course, if you want to be brave, there will inevitably be risks, but at this time, everyone has already forgotten selectively, and Kevin will not remind them.

Seeing the frenetic kobolds crowding over, Kevin also took a few steps back. At the same time, he and Fett quietly looked for a suitable object in the crowd, and of course they had the final say on who would be the brave. But to choose the right person among so many people, it is almost a matter of luck.

First of all, it is impossible for the head of the regiment and the translator, the two of them are brave, and the power structure here will be variable. Kevin wants the brave to let him go out for training, if the regiment commander and the interpreter run away, who will take care of the army here? In the same way, it is not suitable for important generals or elite soldiers in the army, without them, the war may be tilted, and the regiment commander may not be released.

The most suitable candidate for the brave is best to be a marginal person, and secondly, to have wisdom, courage, and responsibility, and to be able to revitalize the kobolds as their own responsibility, and even to the point of sacrificing their lives. But in fact, these conditions themselves are contradictory, and the kobold who meets the follow-up conditions is basically unlikely to be a marginal figure, and now he can only pick as much as possible.

The atmosphere at the scene became more and more enthusiastic, and there was no order in an instant, and a group of kobolds huddled together. There were at least seven or eight hands on this sword, and each of them was desperately pulling it up. Those who can't pull it out don't want to get out of the crowd, and those who still want to pull it out outside can't squeeze in. Screaming and swearing, Kevin couldn't understand what they were talking about, but he felt that if it continued like this, there would soon be a fight.

"Captain," Kevin had to find the kobold leader, "aren't you going to keep order?"

The regiment commander sighed and said a few words, and the interpreter replied: "It's okay, there won't be a fight." ”

Kevin was speechless and didn't say more, anyway, they secretly prepared for three days for this sword drawing ceremony. With their strength, they will never be able to pull it out without Kevin's consent. Seeing that this side seemed to be getting more and more chaotic, Kevin simply stepped aside and watched coldly, which was estimated to be at least until noon.

"Prophet," the regimental commander couldn't help but ask with an interpreter, "if a brave man is born, what should we do?

Kevin glanced back at him and smiled, "Do you know what the doctrine of God is?"

"Absolute loyalty to God?" the head of the regiment tried, and the interpreter translated the exact words.

Kevin smiled: "God is guiding us and showing us the way, but the road itself still has to go on its own, not for God to carry us behind our backs, understand?"

The head of the regiment was a little dazed, and asked: "That...... Does it mean that if you draw your sword, you won't get power?"

Kevin replied, "Strength is also gained through exercise, and God is just showing a path that can be exercised." There is no power that can be obtained directly, and after becoming a brave man, you still have to go through experience, and you may not be able to succeed. ”

The head of the regiment suddenly lost his interest, obviously he had no interest in going out to experience anything like that. However, he still asked, "What about it...... If the brave man succeeds in solving the problem here, will he become the king of our kobolds?"

Kevin was silent for a moment, and could only reply: "It depends on the will of the brave himself." ”

As he spoke, Fit quietly patted Kevin: "Look over there." ”

Kevin turned his head to look and saw a kobold squatting alone, writing and drawing on the ground with a branch, which was completely out of step with the frenzied atmosphere around him, and no one around him cared about him.

"He's one of those people I'm talking about," Fitt whispered to Kevin, "and when I was on a mission, I found him the most serious learner, but he was very withdrawn and barely communicated with others. ”

"It's very difficult to learn a language without communicating with others, not like other science and technology," Kevin muttered to himself, turning to the translator, "What's that kobold's name over there?" ”

The interpreter had to stand on tiptoe to see, but even if he did, he just shook his head: "Civilians at the bottom, we don't know each other." ”

"Let's go check it out. Kevin said as he walked towards the kobold who was squatting on the ground and scribbling, followed by Fit, the head of the regiment, the translator and others.

Push away the fervent kobold all the way and walk up to him. Before Kevin could speak, the interpreter stepped forward and kicked off his branch, opening his mouth to smack. Although Kevin didn't understand it, he could also estimate that it was not a good word.

The withdrawn kobold immediately looked panicked, and hurriedly knelt down in front of the interpreter, bowing his head and not daring to raise it. Kevin looked at it and couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

"Prophet, do you see anything to ask?" the interpreter asked, turning his head.

Kevin was not in a hurry to answer, first squatted down to look at the painting he handed over, the ground was crooked and slanted, horizontal and vertical, but Kevin could still see that this was his magic array diagram. Often at night, it is used to show miracles. When the formation is completed, flames will emerge in the middle, but it is actually not lethal, it is a fire elemental gathering array.

"What's his name?" asked Kevin casually.

Translated and paraphrased, but the tone obviously changed abruptly, turning into a kind of reprimand from the superior. The other party bowed his head and replied respectfully.

"He said he didn't have a name," the translator replied, then explained, "Actually, many of our civilians here don't have names, and these kobolds don't have any culture and don't know how to take names." When called, it is generally called a nickname or something. ”

Kevin nodded, turned his head and communicated with Fett: "Or him? What do you think?" The two spoke in Lou Pauler's Chinese, and no one on the side could understand it.

Fitt turned his head and looked around, "Don't you look at the others? ”

"But the problem is, even if there are excellent people there rushing to draw their swords, now that there are so many people over there, the swords can't be pulled out," Kevin helplessly, "The sword is drawn out at this time, so who knows who pulled out the sword?" The kobold in front of me is a little thin, but he looks okay, and he can draw my own pictures, which is also easy to learn. ”

Fett didn't have any objections: "Then he, it's just that the little spoon might be a little tired." ”

Kevin just smiled, turned his head and asked the translator again: "Ask his parents, his family." ”

The interpreter communicated with him for a while, and quickly replied: "His father is dead, his mother is a miner, he is a carpenter." His father was a carpenter when he was alive, and sometimes he would help others repair tools and the like. There are also two brothers in the family, both of whom are from our legion. He belongs to the reserve army and will also be pulled directly into the corps if needed. ”

"Carpenter," Kevin noticed the word, "and ask him how the carpenter works?"

"A little. The interpreter quickly replied, "Actually, the Prophet doesn't need to count on our carpenters here, who basically don't know how to work, and can't even make a chair, at most they can only chop wood." ”

Kevin nodded, seeing that the enthusiasm for drawing the sword over there did not fade at all, he simply returned to the building, anyway, the candidate had already been decided. The head of the regiment and the interpreter also came back, but found that no one else in the building was here except for Kevin and Fit, and couldn't help but wonder: "Prophet, where have the rest of you gone?"

Kevin replied casually, "Oh, they went out to practice." Our oracles need to be trained to be truly understood. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a bang, and the door was kicked open, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was the church priest here, and he was angry at this time: "What are you doing today?"

Kevin sat down unhurriedly: "Priest has something, it's better to sit down and talk." ”

The priest came over in two steps and slammed his fist on the table, and the cup on the table jumped: "I tell you, I have put up with you for a long time!"

"Then please bear with me. Kevin replied.

The priest was so angry that he didn't know how to answer for a while. Behind him, the two light elves followed, patting the priest to keep him calm and calm. The male light elf Waldler spoke: "Kevin, originally you taught them to dance and teach them language, and we will forget it. But what's going on today? Can you explain that?"

Kevin was silent for a moment and asked directly, "Do you want to hear the truth or falsehood?"

"True, of course. Wadler replied.

"The truth is, we're being guided by God's fucking guidance, and the god's fucking sword that appears here is a god's fucking miracle. Whoever can pull out this sword is a god's brave, and the brave leads the kobold out of the predicament and towards prosperity. Kevin replied.

The priest sneered.

Kevin went on to say, "We're just playing a guide here. After all, they will have to walk this way on their own. ”

"That sounds like a fart!" the priest dismissed.

Waldler suddenly became interested: "If the truth is this, then what is the falsehood?"

"The lie is that the so-called brave man is the agent of the front row of our retirement, in order to accomplish some ulterior purpose. Kevin said bluntly.

The three people on the other side were shocked, looked at each other, and didn't know how to answer for a while. Kevin's words were in Lou Pauler's Chinese, and the leader of the dog-headed people on the side obviously didn't understand.

"And what do you want to do?" the priest asked.

Kevin spread his hands: "I've already said it, we're being guided by God, it's true, what else do you want to know?"

"I want to know what is the ulterior motive of the lie?" asked the priest angrily.

Kevin smiled and spread his hands: "A lie is a lie, why is it so serious?"

Priest: "......"

"Hmph!" the priest sneered, "I'll poke your trick to-day and see what you do!" the priest said and strode out of the door, not forgetting to kick the door again, as if it had an enmity against him. Kevin and Fett did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed, but the kobold leader and the interpreter were at a loss, and could not understand what they were saying at all, when they saw the priest come in and kick the door twice.

The priest rushed to the door, and saw that there were still a large number of kobolds rushing to draw their swords, and immediately volleyed a flash in the air. The sky is bright and dazzling. The kobolds subconsciously lowered their heads and closed their eyes, and the crowd wailed and began to disperse.

The priest took the opportunity to push through the crowd and walked in, the dog-headed people were short, and the priest was more than half as tall as them, so he couldn't stop them even if he wanted to.

The head of the regiment hurriedly asked Kevin through the translator, "What is he doing?"

Kevin smiled: "Maybe he thinks he may be a brave man, go over and try, you don't have to care." ”

As he spoke, the priest had already come to the side of the holy sword, looked down for a moment, sneered, grabbed the hilt of the sword and pulled it out with all his might...... Still didn't move.

The kobold crowd erupted in laughter, a little afraid of the priest, but a flash of light forced in, and the result of the swaggering movement was the same as theirs.

But the priest didn't bother much, he just tried it, if it was easy to pull out, then Kevin didn't dare to put it here and let people pull it out casually. But the priest used his spiritual power to probe, but he didn't find any elemental disturbances, obviously there was no magic array here. So it is estimated that this is the sword clamped by mechanical means?

The priest crouched down and touched the ground, which was lightly covered with dirt, but underneath it was hard rock. The blade of the sword was all inserted into the rock, but the gap was already larger than the sword itself. Obviously, after a large number of people swaying from side to side, the surface seems to have loosened, but I just don't know why I still can't pull it out.

The priest glanced back at Kevin, and saw that Kevin still looked confident, and knew that he wanted to use the conventional method, but the sword obviously could not be drawn.

But after thinking about it, if the other party has any holy sword, it must be filled with a similar sword. Simply bend and break the sword to see what he can do! The holy sword is broken, and their bunch of lies will be self-defeating.

Thinking about it, the priest directly grabbed the hilt of the sword and pushed it forward, knowing that this one-handed sword itself was lightweight, and if it really broke him, ordinary Terran officers could do it, especially if it was half inserted into the ground.

Kevin frowned immediately when he saw him pull it out like this. In an instant, the hilt of the sword began to bend, and the priest already showed a triumphant smile.

Suddenly, a burst of yellow light erupted from the sword's body, and the priest was caught off guard and was actually shocked back two steps. All the kobolds present shouted for a while, and then the light of the sword body dissipated, and it was still stuck in the ground, not coming out half an inch, nor bending even a bit.

"This is vindictive!" the priest, of course, was knowledgeable, "is there anyone down there?"

"Joke!" Kevin walked over, "It's a god's fucking light, you don't understand god's fucking greatness at all!"

The priest didn't bother to pay attention to Kevin, crouched down and fumbled around on the ground. It is certain that there are people underground, and there must be entrances and exits, so there should be clues on the ground.

"You don't have to look for it," Kevin sneered, "you've caused the god's fucking wrath by maliciously destroying God's fucking ritual." You don't have the right to stay here any longer!"

"What did you say?" the priest stood up, wanting to debate.

Kevin directly informed the translator: "Translator, please maintain the basic order, God is already angry, and the consequences are serious!"

The interpreter hurriedly beckoned a few guards to come and surround the priest: "Father, please stay away. Please stay out of the way!"

"I don't shy away!" the priest puffed up his chest, "Who dares to stop me?" The priest's identity is not ordinary, although the kobolds present surround him, but he does not dare to really do it.

Kevin directly drew his sword: "You ruined the god's ritual, and you still want to stay here and not leave, do you think I really dare not touch you?"

"You dare?" said the priest glaring.

Kevin unceremoniously slapped it with the spine of his sword, and the priest didn't dare to slack off when he saw it, so he hurriedly dodged. Kevin advanced several swords in succession, and the priest continued to retreat, and in a moment he had already withdrawn from the vicinity of the holy sword.

"You think I really can't beat you?" the priest was visibly angry, his hand shaking, and the light spell began to coalesce.

Kevin raised his hand and fired three shots of the magic missile in succession, and the priest's light spell immediately dispersed. At the same time, the long sword in his right hand was handed out, and the priest could not dodge and could only block with his hand. Kevin also kept a hand and slapped him on the arm with his sword, thumping.

The priest retreated again and again, his hands constantly being smashed, and he couldn't cast any spells at all. Kevin laughed: "See, God's servant, in front of God's fucking servant, can't even use spells." These words were said in the Chinese language of the Lane Emperor, obviously for the translator, and the dog-headed people around were all silent, looking at the two of them directly.

Kevin put away his sword and took it when he saw it, and the priest stood awkwardly, his hands hurting from being beaten. With his experience, he actually knew that Kevin had only seen through the elemental collection points, and if he was an experienced mage, he could also change at any time. But he is only a priest, of course, he lacks experience in front-line combat, and his spells are clear, knowing that even if he tries again, he will still fail.

"Humph!" the priest couldn't stay any longer, so he turned and left. The kobolds subconsciously turned their heads to look at Kevin, who came to the center with a smile and said, "It was just some misunderstanding, you don't have to mind." ”

"Our religion is tolerant, and if we don't believe in it, we can't believe in other religions," Kevin took the opportunity to brainwash everyone again, "but one thing is certain, the existence of our religion is also unquestionable." If we want to challenge God's teachings, we can't let others bully. Everyone has just seen it, the holy sword glows with golden light, this is the wrath of the gods. ”

"But God is merciful after all, and since the priest's thing just now is the first time, then forget it. I believe that he will not do such reckless behavior in the future, and if he still acts recklessly in the future, then I also hope that all believers will speak out or stop it. After all, faith cannot be defiled!" After Kevin finished speaking, he turned back to the translator and waved his hand, "Translation!"
