Chapter 322: The Quilt City Lord (I)
The quilt warrior fell down and pretended to be dizzy, but only a moment later, he really fell asleep. The violent mood swings, coupled with the extreme fatigue of the body, are really unbearable at this time. Perhaps the current situation has made him afraid to face it, and he began to instinctively escape.
It's not impossible to escape, and people's spirits are not without an upper limit, and if you don't do it well, you will drive you crazy. Bradley and the others could also see his state at this time, and they didn't shake him up, but just took him back to the main city in humaneity.
The coachman wanted to find an excuse to escape, but seeing so many strong people, he didn't dare to speak. The full stop chariot still has a little magic, and the driver acts as the driver, carrying the quilt brave. Or Kevin said more: "Take the princess's corpse with you." ”
The others on the side just looked at him more, and no one said anything. The driver then went over and picked up the body and put it in the car. On the way back to the city, everyone basically went their own way, although it was the same road, but the speed of travel was very different. For example, the Imperial people flew away directly on the snake dragon, while Kevin could only rely on two legs. However, there are many people on two legs, and a group of people are also lively.
The crow only came out of the hole at this time, and after digging for so long, he dug less than half a meter, and wanted to dig through the tunnel to take out the owl vision, which was really not suitable for him. Shake off the dust on his body and fly back into the air, he has other tasks, Xiao Jiu and Xiao Spoon have not heard from him so far, and they must be found.
After a while, I finally saw the two of them rushing here not far away, and hurriedly landed and asked, "What are you two doing?"
The two stopped, and the little spoon stretched out his arm to stop the crow in his hand: "We have been chasing a figure just now. ”
"Figure?" the crow was dazed, "What figure?"
"I don't know," said the spoon, helplessly, "we still didn't catch up in the end." ”
"Wow, why are you covered in dirt?" Xiao Jiu on the side realized, "You fell into the pit?"
The crow waved his wings impatiently: "Just find you, and explain to Kevin later." ”
The two of them were keenly aware that the crow seemed to be in a bad mood, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"
The crow didn't want to say more, and immediately flapped its wings and flew high. Xiao Spoon and Xiao Jiu couldn't help but glance at each other, and could only follow the crow to trot all the way and catch up with the large army of Kevin and others. Kevin just nodded at them, "Let's go back and talk about it." ”
By the time Kevin walked back into the city, it was already evening, and the quilt had been pulled to the only church in the city, where he stayed in a private room and waited for him to wake up. At the same time, the princess's body has been transported to the capital, and a convoy of kobolds has been specially sent to escort it.
The princess is still quite prestigious here, and her death has caused quite a stir among the kobolds, but when they heard that it was the cotton that was killed by the brave, they expressed their disbelief. At the same time, the news of the prince's death only came at this time, and the rumors in the streets and alleys were heard, and there were various versions. Some people talked about miracles, some said it was done by the Empire, some said it was the curse of the princess, some said it was an accident, in short, no one was involved in Lou Baole's head.
Bradley and the others have already gone to the prince's main city to observe the situation on the spot, but it is estimated that there will be no clues, and everything that should be burned is almost burned. What's more, the local pillow warriors are also their own people, and if they clean up afterwards, there will be no clues left at all.
A moment later, the Imperials flew back on a snake dragon, and Kevin waited at the embassy for them to come to the door for questioning, but he didn't come, apparently knowing that even if he asked, he wouldn't be able to ask anything famous.
Soon, the prince's ashes were also transported to the capital, and his was relatively light, just pack it in a box and take it home. It's just that I don't know how the kobold king will feel when he sees a princess and a prince die one after another, but others end up using his children as pawns.
On the other side, Little Spoon begins to report his situation to Kevin.
"I don't know how to describe it, but it looks like a man, Terran," replied the spoon, "and we couldn't find out where the princess was, and we subconsciously chased after the figure in front of us." ”
Xiao Jiu: "Later, we thought there would be a problem, so we rushed back." ”
"How long have you been chasing?" asked Kevin.
"A few hours, right?" Xiao Spoon was a little uncertain, and turned back to ask Xiao Jiu, who also shook his head.
"How many hours? didn't chase and didn't catch up?" Kevin was surprised, "So coincidentally the same speed?"
As soon as these words came out, the two of them couldn't help but be stunned, and there were indeed many strange things in retrospect. Why would you be foolishly chasing a figure for hours, and how many hours exactly? As an Assassin, you should have a keen grasp of time, but at this time you can't say anything at all?
"You can't fall for any illusions, do you?" Kevin had to wonder.
"Wouldn't it?" Xiao Jiu replied, "I'm good at hypnotism myself, I don't feel ......" In the end, Xiao Jiu himself lost his self-confidence, and the more he recalled, the more he felt that he seemed to be confused at that time?
Turning to ask the ambassador, the ambassador was not sure: "Otherwise, tomorrow you two will go to the old place again, maybe there are any clues." ”
The two nodded in agreement, everyone was tired today, and they went back to rest.
In the early morning of the next day, the quilt warrior finally woke up, and the escape was only temporary. The coachman hurriedly ran to inform everyone, and Bradley and the others immediately got up and went to the church.
Kevin got the news and hurriedly chased after him, but Bradley had already arrived first, locked the door, and set up an enchantment. Kevin had no choice but to wait outside the door.
Bradley, his retinue Robles, and the dragoon leader Van Mill stood on one side, and the coachman stood beside the bed, shivering at the oppression of the three. The quilt warrior sat calmly on the bed, his eyes were a little dull, he lowered his head slightly, and looked at the sheets in front of him.
"The kobold prince is dead, you know?" asked Bradley bluntly.
The quilt warrior looked up blankly, then shook his head.
"I really don't know?" added Robles, "Did Kevin kill him?"
The quilt warrior lowered his head again: "I don't know. ”
"You'd better be honest, we can use mental hypnosis to make you tell the truth!" Robles said coldly.
"Oh, come on. The quilt warrior raised his head, his eyes were still glazed, as if he had lost faith, and it didn't matter what he wanted.
The three of them glanced at each other, but Bradley spoke: "Forget about the prince's affairs." I'm still the same question as last time, who are you loyal to now?"
The quilt warrior finally struggled out of bed and knelt down in front of Bradley: "Serve the Empire." ”
"Effectiveness or allegiance?" Bradley struggled with words.
"Allegiance. "The quilt was corrected by the brave, after lying on the bed for so long, I have figured out everything I should have thought about, and the things that I couldn't say were fully prepared at this time.
"That's why you killed the princess?" Bradley crouched down to look at him.
"Yes. The quilt brave replied.
"You kobold, why should you be loyal to the Imperial?" Bradley asked again.
"I'm afraid of death, I want to live. The quilt brave replied, but the tone was not quite the same.
"Do you believe in God?" Bradley asked again.
"I believe it. ”
"Then swear to God," Bradley forced him, "if you are disloyal to the Empire, the country will be ruined and rivers of blood will be shed." ”
A hint of strangeness flashed in the eyes of the brave quilt, but then he raised his head and stretched out his hand and swore: "I swear to God, if I am not faithful to the empire, then my country will be ruined and blood will be shed." ”
"All right," Bradley said, standing up, "your acting skills are a mess, and you are neither afraid of death nor of God." ”
The quilt warrior defended: "I can recite a passage of the Bible." ”
"That doesn't prove anything," replied Bradley, "I haven't seen anyone like you. The weak class, the collectivists, the self-sacrificing people, do you think I don't understand?"
"I wasn't going to keep you," Bradley said bluntly, "but since you stayed, it might be of some use." ”
"General," Van Mill began, "Kevin has been out there for a while, do you want to ......?"
Bradley nodded, lifted the enchantment, opened the door, and made a surprised expression: "It turns out that it's you outside, why don't you knock on the door since you're here?"
Kevin took someone in: "After all, it's nothing important, it's not polite to knock on the enchantment." ”
"Really?" Bradley glanced at Sain, who subconsciously bowed his head.
With a wave of his hand, the door closes again, and the barrier is re-established. Kevin looked at this state, this place has been isolated from the outside world, and he knows that this is going to be a showdown.
"The princess is dead, what are your plans?" Bradley asked directly, "There are no outsiders here, and they all know that the princess is your person." ”
"The princess can't be said to be mine," Kevin said, still cautious, "In the future, I suggest that the Bright Brave take over the city lord." As for the quilt brave, you can do it. ”
"Bright Brave?" Bradley was slightly surprised, but then understood, "That's right, after all, the person who killed the princess in the quilt brave will probably not be able to stay in the main city of the original princess." ”
On the side, Robles had already taken out the map: "General, look at the map." ”
Bradley took the map and looked at it for a moment, and then asked the quilt brave directly: "Let me ask you, if you are made the lord of the city, how much can you contribute?"
The quilt brave man was stunned for a moment, and he didn't answer for a while.
Kevin spoke on his behalf: "Twice it, twice the income of the original main city, it should be no problem." ”
Bradley smiled: "If Lou Pauler is willing to have a blood transfusion, then there will indeed be no problem." ”
"You think too much," Kevin replied, "I don't have that right, I don't have that much money myself, I just have faith in him." ”
"If you're so confident, then triple it," Bradley doubled casually, "Look at the map!
When everyone looked at it, others didn't think anything, but the coachman was shocked, isn't this his main city? Where there are not many minerals, and young people are fleeing, they can only pull carts nearby to cheat money.
Bradley closed the map: "That's it, remember to pay three times the earnings every month, and go back and sign a deal for you." If you don't meet the requirements, hehe. ”
Kevin replied with a sneer: "It is impossible for Lou Baole to have a blood transfusion, so don't be so harsh on the old general." And after all, the quilt brave man has no experience as a city lord......"
"It's because you don't have any experience as a city lord, right?" Bradley interrupted with a sneer.
"Of course," Kevin admits frankly, "I really didn't ever be a city lord. ”
The quilt brave man who was still kneeling next to him suddenly spoke: "I want to hire Mr. Kevin as my advisor." ”
Bradley smiled, "I'll do whatever you want." ”
Kevin shook his head: "Forget about the consultant, but if there is any problem, we can communicate amicably." ”
Bradley sneered: "Quilt brave, in front of Kevin, I also remind you, Lou Paule Country is not such an innocent and pure country, where do you think their big country came from? ”
Kevin immediately defended his motherland: "Since ancient times, the country of Lou Pauler has never invaded the territory of other countries...... They all came down with Lilly. ”
Everyone: "......"
Raising his hand to remove the barrier, Bradley stopped talking nonsense and led the people away. The ambassador immediately set up an enchantment to isolate himself from the outside world, leaving Kevin and the others, the quilt warrior and the coachman in the room.
At this time, the quilt brave finally stopped hiding it, lowered his head and curled up on the ground, sobbing leisurely, clenching his fists, and his heart was full of grief and indignation, others could understand it, but they couldn't share it for him.
Kevin sighed and squatted down: "The dead pass on their spirit to the living, and the living carry the spirit and carry the weight forward. In fact, you did a very good job, and we may not be able to do well in that situation, and we all respect you very much. ”
