Chapter 12: "Clown" VS "Paper Man"
When Li Wuchang was in a daze, Xiang Fan suddenly accosted him:
"Brother Li, what do you think of the Free Army?"
His words reminded Li Wuchang of the excited look in Xiang Fan's eyes when he saw the group of soldiers at noon today.
"It's mighty, it's handsome."
Xiang Fan shook his head:
"I mean...... What do you think of the name Freikorps? Or rather, how do you understand the word 'freedom'? ”
Li Wuchang pursed his lips:
"Freedom? If a person can do whatever he wants without restraint, he should be called free. ”
Xiang Fan applauded softly:
"That's right, that's right, you know what, those mighty and handsome soldiers in your mouth are fighting for a piece of freedom in their hearts."
When he said this, Xiang Fan's eyes once again revealed yearning and admiration:
"The small world inside the walls can't trap them, they yearn not only for exorcism of monsters in exchange for peace, but also for the new world ruled by monsters outside the walls, it is said that there are landscapes that the people inside the walls cannot see in their lives, there is a vast blue ocean, and there is an endless sandy land......"
His words were exactly the same as what Fa Ge said before.
Xiang Fan released his emotions, he looked at Li Wuchang, and said with a little excitement:
"They are my beliefs since I was a child, and I constantly pushed myself to become stronger, and I reached the realm of prison in my twenties, just so that one day, I can go to the battlefield of freedom and fight for freedom."
Li Wuchang cast a glance at him and said with a slight smile:
"So, you want to join the Freikorps?"
"Hmm." Xiang Fan asked, "Brother Li, what do you think...... Is this dream of mine ridiculous? ”
"Ridiculous? How do you say that? Li Wuchang wondered, "Is there anything wrong with fighting for your dreams?" ”
Xiang Fan's eyes gradually brought a little gratitude and relief to him. He smiled wryly:
"Sure enough, there are still people who understand me. I told Fa Ge a long time ago, I told Xiao Zhuang, I told Lin Han, I told everyone, but they all said I was crazy, including my lover Jasmine, and she couldn't understand why I wanted to join the Free Army.
"Every time the Freikorps go out to explore the worlds beyond the walls, they lose many soldiers when they return, and in Jasmine's opinion, I joined the Freikorps to die completely, even though I think I am strong and will not die there."
"But." He clenched his fists, "Even if everyone doesn't think favorably of me, a man's free will will will not be easily extinguished." ”
Li Wuchang was speechless, just listened quietly.
It turns out that this powerful Mr. Clown still has such an obsession.
"With your strength, why don't you join the Free Army, but live within this wall, sell your art, and work for Lin Han?"
Xiang Fan coughed lightly and said with a smile:
"I'm not called a showman, that's purely out of interest, and I don't call it a part-time job, we're a nascent rebel organization."
He suddenly straightened up, and said in a deep voice:
"Brother Li, let me tell you, as long as that hateful king exists, then I will never be truly free, and humanity will never be victorious."
Li Wuchang concentrated:
"What's going on?"
But Xiang Fan chuckled and did not give a positive answer:
"The proprietress said that there are some things that I will tell you in person when I get back."
The two stopped talking, and Li Wuchang quietly looked at the scenery that flashed outside the car.
He had a lot of doubts in his mind and wanted answers.
Who is that king? What heinous things did he do?
What does the world look like outside the walls? How dangerous are monsters?
I don't know how long it took, the carriage seemed to stop, and Li Wuchang's thoughts were pulled back to reality.
------ arrived at their destination.
Xiang Fan got out of the carriage and took a few pieces of silver from his pocket and handed them to the coachman.
He also holds a clown mask in his hand.
..........
In the southern part of the Brown area, at a group of residential buildings.
It was getting dark, and visibility was very low.
Under a building, four people stood in front of a small horse-drawn carriage.
Dongfang Ying glanced at the sleeping girl in the carriage, snorted lightly, and said:
"Without further ado, you two hurry up and take her to the king."
He has a sharp face, the distance between the eyebrows and the eyes is very close, and the facial contour is full of three-dimensionality.
In the darkness, his eyes were sharp.
There were three men standing in front of him, and when two of them heard this, they said respectfully:
"Yes, Lord Dongfang Ying!"
So they said, one sat in the carriage, and the other sat on the back of the horse in front of him to drive the carriage.
It didn't take long for them to leave.
Only Dongfang Ying and another man were left at the scene, who were also his subordinates.
Tonight, their task was to capture a beautiful maiden who had not lost her virginity and send it to the king, and now they had already captured one, but for the sake of insurance, they decided to go around the neighborhood a little more and catch another one, in case the previous one had already lost her virginity.
As for why they did this, it starts with their family's relationship with the king.
In this country, there are three major families, and they obey the king's orders until death, but when it comes to loyalty, the first two families are not very different from this eastern family.
It is said that a long time ago, the current King Luqi was kind to the current head of the Oriental Family, and since the rise of the Eastern Family, they have always adhered to the principle of obeying the king in this life.
And in the last two months, King Luci has given them an order to offer him a chaste maiden every week, and although the members of the Eastern family have doubts, they do not ask much, but only silently carry it out.
All they did was to believe in the king unconditionally, and although they did not know what the fate of the girls would be, they had no objection.
The king seems to have taken this very seriously, and has a special requirement------ it must be a very beautiful woman.
And tonight's one, apparently, is very much in line with the king's requirements, even exceeding the standard.
He lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth.
At this time, the subordinates on the side suddenly spoke:
"Lord Dongfang Ying, ...... quickly"
Dongfang Ying raised her eyelids and looked at him.
By the faint moonlight, he saw that the other party's eyes had lost their highlights, and looked at him blankly.
"Running ......"
As soon as the last word of the subordinate was spoken, his body exploded from the inside out, as if a time bomb had been installed in his body.
The explosion was extremely violent, and a thick cloud of smoke appeared in all directions.
Before the smoke from the explosion had dissipated, a figure appeared not far away.
The man has a tall and thin figure, a purple trench coat on the top, a pair of black trousers underneath, and a clown mask painted in yellow, red and white on his face.
Under the mask, Xiang Fan looked at the smoke that was about to disperse in front of him, and said in a deep voice:
"Isn't it that easy......
The smoke cleared completely, and I saw a person standing there, his whole body was tightly wrapped in various white papers, and only the part above his neck was exposed.
If you look inside, you can see that the papers are all ordinary discarded newspapers. Dongfang Ying's original clothes have been wrapped in paper, and the whole person looks like a mummy, which is a bit funny.
Although it was ugly, it was his strongest defensive move, as evidenced by the fact that he was able to survive Xiang Fan's surprise attack unscathed.
Dongfang Ying looked at the uninvited guest who appeared in front of him, and asked in a light tone:
"Who are you?"
Xiang Fan approached him step by step, although Dongfang Ying didn't say it, he was also a little apprehensive in his heart. Just imagine, a man wearing a scary clown mask walking towards you step by step on a big night, full of danger, can you be calm?
Xiang Fan replied in a lazy and slow tone:
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you are not my opponent. I'm just here to cripple you, and take you with me. ”
Dongfang Ying looked at the flesh and blood of his own men on the ground around him, and couldn't help but sneer:
"Quite a big breath, so do you know who I am?"
Xiang Fan under the clown mask looked at him with dark eyes:
"Dongfang Ying, 40 years old, a senior member of the Dongfang family, a prison-level ability, known as a 'paper man', has the ability to manipulate paper."
When Dongfang Ying heard this, he couldn't help but be curious:
"Since you can investigate me so thoroughly and dare to come and stop my plan, then you must be a member of some dangerous organization, right? And, you seem to be confident in your own strength? ”
The corners of his mouth went up:
"Can you still be a madman?"
Mr. Clown only responded to him with actions, but when he saw it, Xiang Fan attacked Dongfang like a sharp arrow. As a prisoner-level ability, his physical strength is needless to say, when he arrived in front of Dongfang Ying, he bent his left foot slightly, and then kicked straight at Dongfang Ying.
This kick, although it was extremely sharp and as powerful as the explosion just now, but the kick on the opponent's paper with only ordinary hardness could not shake the opponent by half a point.
Seeing the situation, Xiang Fan stepped back half a minute and distanced himself from the other party.
At the same time, he muttered:
"Is it just this level of defense?"
Dongfang Ying looked at him coldly:
"I have the strength of my subordinates who can kill me in seconds, but they can't break through my defenses, and there are only a handful of prison-level abilities in this country, and most of them I know and understand their abilities, so I ...... You're just a level-destroyer, aren't you? ”
He smiled contemptuously again:
"How dare you come and ruin my plans? If you can surrender to me now, and explain ......"
Before Dongfang Ying's words were finished, he suddenly noticed that at his feet, there were dense insects------ cockroaches, centipedes, and rats......
The next moment, there was another explosion around him, and the power of this explosion ...... It's dozens of times more than that.
As a result of this bombing, many residential buildings in the surrounding area were destroyed beyond recognition, and a large hole appeared in the ground.
This explosion seems to be able to shake the earth, showing a trend of overwhelming mountains and seas.
In order not to affect himself, Xiang Fan retreated again and again and withdrew from the range of the explosion.
At the same time, he laughed and said:
"Extinction? Ha, a person who has just been promoted not long ago, and even the fierce level energy defense cannot be used normally, is also qualified to evaluate me. If I wasn't worried about destroying the buildings around me, or I'd blow you up, I'd have blown you out of the wall. ”
When faced with the enemy, he will not be silent, only sarcastic.
