The comprehensive strength of the Principality of Orrick is indisputably at the bottom of the Tian Yuan Plate, and even among the entire countries of the Divine Punishment Continent. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, this small principality with a population of only 8 million, the number of regular troops is as high as 300,000, not only is the overall military strength ranked in the middle of the Tianyuan plate, but the Blood Lion Legion, which it relied on, ranked seventh among the top ten legions of the Tianyuan plate with its fierce reputation.

This means that one out of every four adult men is in military service.

The vast territory of this militaristic principality is located in the barren northern cold land, and its remote geographical location makes it impossible for the Duchy of Orrick to develop a commercial economy.

Fortunately, there are several huge mineral deposits in the territory of the principality, and the large amount of ore produced every year is enough to exchange for enough food to ensure the basic food and clothing of the people at the bottom, otherwise the collapse of the principality will only be in a moment under the double dilemma of food and economy.

In order to alleviate the contradictions of the people at home, waging war and plundering the wealth of other countries became the best way to alleviate the plight of the principality.

Eisenhow, the founding duke of Orrick, led troops to fight all year round, and his soldiers were all outlaws who licked blood at the tip of a knife. The Blood Lion Legion, known as the elite of the elite, has three legions with a total of more than 30,000 people, and the Blood Lion Legion is like a fierce tiger and a vicious beast, which terrifies the enemy.

But even these elite blood lion soldiers, who have been under the baptism of war all day long, crossing between death and destruction, look at Kane's torture and killing of Zhang Butcher and his wife, and there is a faint strangeness in their hearts.

Killing is not a nod to death, the blood lion is an army, killing people in order to win the war, and Kane's killing is more like revenge, enjoyment, and even satisfaction with the twisted and perverted psychology.

When the soldiers looked at Kane with a slightly cold gaze, they were a little more afraid.

Kane turned a blind eye to the changes in everyone, and pressed his foot on the body of Zhang's butcher's wife, bowed slightly, and reached out to hold the hilt of the knife, with a little force.

The scimitar brought out a gushing of hot blood and drenched Kane in the face.

But the young man didn't care, and casually tore a piece of clothing from the corpse and wiped the blade in his hand.

"Good knife, it's a pity!" Kane sighed slightly.

No matter how much Kane wiped the blood-stained knife face, it couldn't regain its original light.

"No matter how beautiful a knife is, it is not stained with blood, after all, it is just a utensil for people to play with. Thero's tone was unusually steady, without the hypocrisy of posturing, nor the sharpness of sinister air leakage.

Kane was slightly stunned, and Thelo seemed to be trying to persuade himself of something, but it was as if he didn't say anything.

"It's almost fun, it's time to go!" Selo got up and straddled his horse, holding a leather whip in his hand, shaking slightly, "Don't let the Grand Duke wait for a long time." ”

Two earthly horses, snorting and pulling a carriage covered with coarse cloth.

"Miss Lillian, please get in the car. "Thero's illusory light and shadow outside his body disappeared, and his true body appeared in the air.

Looking at Thelo, the first thought that came to Kane's mind was to be thin.

His limbs were thin and weak, and he was covered in white gauze, and his cheeks were unhealthily pale in his forties.

If he didn't know Thero's true strength, anyone would think of him as a middle-aged literati who was powerless.

"Together, right?" asked Thero, gesturing to a blood-red sturdy horse beside him.

Kane didn't answer, just looked at the temple of light.

Lilian was still in the house.

Smack-

Thelo snapped his fingers, and the four girls obediently entered the room and helped out Lilian, who was blindfolded with gauze.

The four unfortunate teenage girls are a vivid example of the difficult life and harsh environment in the small town of Trist, where many men buy these girls from traffickers without being able to marry their daughters-in-law.

"Brother—" Lillian's face was surprisingly rosy, and she looked like she had been reborn.

"Some of the views are still better not to see. Thero's eyes casually swept around, and explained in a low voice. "I asked the soldier to make up a white lie that she was not yet healed and that she could not see the light of day. ”

Kane smiled, a warm current in his heart, and threw a grateful look at Thero.

That third-grade pill was not ordinary after all, and Lilian's appearance was much stronger than the girl who supported him.

As soon as he was about to take a step, Kane seemed to suddenly think of something, his face sank, he put his hands behind his back, his feet stepped back slightly, and stood leaning against the carriage.

"What's wrong?" said Lilian's rosy cheeks filled with joy, and her hands fumbled in the air for a long time without finding Kane.

"It's okay, hands, dirty hands. Kane was a little hurried in his panic, like a teenager who had been discovered by his parents by doing something wrong, and he still had the same fierce and vicious appearance as before.

"Dirty hands?" Lillian's face was full of confusion, and her eyebrows were slightly raised.

"Get in the car and go to the Emerald City. Kane steadied himself and sank his face, as before.

"What a fierce one, huh!" Lilian actually made a little girl's expression, and Kane was stunned for a moment.

The physical pain is removed, and although the younger brother Kane does not know what the future holds, it will definitely be better than before, and the girl Lillian has changed from a strong and responsible sister to an innocent fifteen-year-old girl almost overnight.

Supported by the four maidens, Lilian boarded the carriage, her blindfolded face full of excitement.

It was the first time in her life that she had ridden in a carriage.

"My brother, he's a hero!" Lilian's smug voice came from inside the carriage, hovering over the ruined town of Trist, echoing around the corpses of thousands of townspeople, and wrapping around the bloodied young Kane.

Even if the road ahead is full of bloody storms, even if the journey is full of death thorns.

Even if you are the heaven of the gods, you are not afraid of the so-called abyss hell.

Sister, I will slaughter gods and demons for you, and you only need to be innocent in this life.

"Let's go. Kane clumsily rolled on his horse with a sinister and bloody look.

The horse's hooves clattered, perhaps because Kane had an innate talent for horseback riding, or perhaps because the dragon horse was tamed by Kane's evil spirit.

Two horses, one old and one young.

Facing the cold wind of the suffering plateau and the scorching sun in full swing, we went all the way......

Behind him, the heavens and the earth were covered with yellow sand.

Beneath the yellow sand are buried the ruins of the small town of Trist and the corpses of its thousands of inhabitants.

It also buries the memories and past of the young Kane and the young Lilian.

"After all, it's all gone—" Kane turned his head to look back, and there was a faint parting sadness in his tone.

"Dead people are born secretists. Thero's tone was calm, not the slightest fluctuation.

"What about the four girls around my sister?" Kane asked.

"The tongue is cut out, and he is illiterate. ”

"Oh. ”

"Hmm!"

The sun is setting, and a day of carnage and death is about to pass.

What about the road ahead?

Looking at the seemingly endless road ahead, I suddenly seemed to see countless stone steps made of blood and bones......
