10. Deeper and deeper misunderstandings
Watching the men who were originally his cronies scatter in a hurry, Fat Huck who was slumped on the ground gritted his teeth and cursed, looking at Levi's distant back with a vicious gaze. In his mind, the young man had become an unanimous enemy, and just as Fat Huck was spilling all the foul words he could think of in his heart, a tall and thin figure suddenly cut off his vision.
It's Grace the Sniper Archer.
Grace narrowed her eyes and raised her left hand, pointing toward Huck's eyebrows. Huck's fat body trembled, as if a cold finger had touched the center of his eyebrows, and a cold feeling spread from the center of his eyebrows.
Grace made no secret of his murderous intentions.
Huck trembled and tried to stand up, but his limbs could not be used, so he had to move his body desperately, crawling out like a pig. He couldn't care about the wealth hidden under the house now, and he knew one thing very well, if he didn't run away now, Grace wouldn't let him go.
"You're lucky this time, don't let me see you again, Huck. Grace spat at the fat figure and hurried in the direction Levi had left. In his heart, a guy like Fat Huck who can be killed at any time is not worth mentioning, and Levi, a mysterious and ancient family child, is the key to his hope.
Seeing the sniper archer Grace coming over, Levi secretly complained in his heart, as the squire of Knight Stern, Levi had already decided to take knightly virtues as an iron law to pursue for life. Lying is obviously an act that knightly virtues will never allow, and although Levi is not telling a lie in the real sense of the word, in the face of Grace's deepening misunderstanding, sooner or later he will have to make a decision.
Lies will bring the god in one's heart to the ground, and truth means setting up a terrible enemy.
Fortunately, Levi didn't have to make this choice now, and after Grace caught up with Levi, he deliberately walked beside him half a position behind, and his blue-gray lips twisted a few times, still unable to say what was in his heart.
Out of the corner of his eye, Levi saw the difficulty on Grace's face, so he stopped and turned to face the famous sniper archer.
It was the first time Levi had looked at Grace so closely, a tall, thin man, his blue stubble chin that made him look older than he really was, but those eyes were clearly not those of a weathered middle-aged man, but with the impulses of a young man and the recklessness of an adventurer.
Grace did not wear any armor, but rather clothing that was very light and easy to stealth. Aside from the silver fir longbow and a few sharp arrows he carried on his shoulder, he didn't carry any weapons of self-defense. But if anyone thinks that he can deal with Grace with a melee attack, then the longbow that is as agile as a trick will let him know what a melee shot is.
In terms of pure strength, although Levi has been promoted to a third-level warrior, and the four pikemen under his command are equivalent to about the level of level four, but even so, it is still impossible to easily leave Grace, a demon hunter who is known for his speed and stealth actions, and once the distance is widened, the fearless pikemen are just a relatively hard target.
Grace's strength alone can actually wipe out Levi's small team. However, now this rebellious and powerful adventurer stood in front of Levi with an embarrassed expression, as if he wanted to lower his posture and say something, but he couldn't open his mouth.
Levi sighed softly in his heart, he really wanted to be alone for a moment now, and check on the situation of the heart of the castle after destroying the Great Demon Burner. The awakening of the old magician, Mr. Dich, obviously marked that this alchemical miracle had reached the conditions for the first advancement, and those new buildings and new resources that might appear made the young man's mood subtlely excited.
However, what Grace wanted to say was obviously also very important, and he didn't want to watch the other party continue to be embarrassed, Levi waved his hand to signal Warren and Martha to leave first, and then whispered to Grace, "Sir Sir, what do you want me to command?"
Since most of Levi's attention was devoted to thinking about the heart of the castle, this seemingly very polite remark did not carry much respect. Listening to Grace's ears, the identity of the young knight's squire became more affirmative.
To be able to face a knight with such a calm and unhurried attitude, this young man's identity is not ordinary! Even in those ancient families, it is not easy for him to reach the status of a full-fledged magician at his age.
Grace thought like this, and the feeling of embarrassment suddenly lessened a lot. The surname of the Demon Hunter Archer is only rebellious, not arrogant, and it is still very simple to maintain a certain respect for a young man with the status of a magician and a promising future.
"Mr. Levi, if you don't mind, can we talk in private?" Grace tentatively spoke, and Levi nodded nonchalantly as he imagined, "Of course, Lord Sir." The knight's squire Levi will be happy to serve you, please command. ”
"What I'm going to say next is an absolute secret, Mr. Levi, are these of your men reliable?" said Grace, glancing at the pikemen beside Levi, with some hesitation.
Are pikemen reliable? The answer to such a question is, of course, a resounding yes, and Levi said casually, without hesitation: "I can assure you that their loyalty is beyond doubt." ”
Levi didn't see it when he said this, and Grace's blazing gaze swept over his and the four pikemen's faces, taking in their expressions.
Without the slightest hesitation when he spoke, this Young Master Li Wei did not have ordinary trust in several of his subordinates. And when they heard this unreserved praise of trust, there was not even the slightest muscle tremor on the faces of these people, and this situation could no longer be described as ordinary loyalty.
The Dead Soldier is definitely an elite Dead Soldier that only the oldest family can cultivate. It is said that the strength of these people may not be terrible, but the kind of unafraid of death, even the most incredible orders of the master will be carried out to the letter, and the iron loyalty can allow them to exert unimaginable power.
Levi didn't know that his status had been raised again in Grace's mind. He only felt that the man in front of him, who had the dual identity of an adventurer and a nobleman, fell into an inexplicable excitement, and couldn't help but feel a chill.
"Sir Sir, please tell me something. Levi urged, all he wanted now was to get Grace over as quickly as possible, and then find a secluded place to enter the heart of the castle.
"Mr. Levi, I don't think the purpose of your training will conflict with what I said. Now that you know about the relationship between the Stride Hunter and the Demon Mountain Family, you must have heard of the stain on the Stride Hunter badge five years ago, right?" said Grace in a thoughtful tone, each word looking very cautious.
Levi's mind was simply at a loss, not to mention that the stride hunter had been tainted, even the name of the Magic Mountain family came from the mouth of the old magician Mr. Dich.
Levi's hesitation looked in Grace's eyes, making him sigh a little disappointed, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Levi, in the eyes of you and your family, maybe the Demon Mountain family is nothing, but in my eyes, it is an irresistible behemoth. When my family was destroyed, I realized that with my own modest strength, I could not do anything. ”
"Is it the power of the thin one?" Levi thought with a wry smile in his heart, "Sir Grace, your so-called thin strength can already wipe me out completely, and as for the Demon Mountain family, it is probably a terrifying force that I can't even imagine." ”
"I will never forget the moment when the Count of the Magic Mountain led his knights through the burning manor, carrying the heads of my family on the tip of the spear. Grace's voice was hoarse, and between her teeth came the sound of grinding something hard. "Mr. Levi, I know this request is a bit presumptuous, but if your family can help me take revenge on the Demon Mountain family, I am willing to offer my loyalty to you. ”
As the words fell, Grace bowed slightly, then turned away, his back looking particularly gloomy, gradually submerging into the rising sun.
