Chapter 173, the emperor appears

Tick ~ Tick ~ Tick ~

On the outskirts of Arabel, there is a cave in the tunnels under the Temple of Suren, where there are a series of stone buildings, although they have not been maintained for many years, and the structure has partially collapsed, but there are still a few areas that can be used.

The hard floor was covered with checkered stone tiles and was covered with a lot of sand, and the path down had collapsed, and the people could not get back to the surface by the same way, but the apparition of the Silver Madonna had shown them a way to the ground.

Aaron found it more of an underground temple than a tunnel, with broken stone statues in the walls, and Aaron recognized two of them, the first being the elven goddess of the moon, Sahanni-Moonbow, whose emblem was the crescent moon, and the second was Elise, the dark maiden of the drow elves, whose emblem was a naked moon dancer.

Aaron thought a little and found that this contains a lot of information, Suren Mama, as the ancient goddess of the moon in the mixed good camp, he has a very strong relationship with many gods, whether it is Sahanni-Moon Bow or Elise Cui, these two goddesses have a lot to do with Suren, and even Aaron suspects that this Arabel Temple is built on the remains of the temple of the Elven Empire.

But according to Aaron's knowledge, after the god queen of the elven god king Corellon fell into the spider queen Rose, the dark girl Elisetsu, as the daughter of Corellon and Elosine, refused her father's retention and resolutely chose to fall into the underground together, so Elistry is an elven underground god, and the existing elven god Sahanni will not appear in a temple.

Interesting, is this what Su Lun Ma Ma wants to tell himself?

Several people were injured, among which Disma and Maximian were the most serious, Disma was very tough, and after receiving Aaron's life magic treatment, the second senior refused the help of others and bandaged himself without snorting throughout the whole process, refusing to expose any weaknesses.

Eleanor wanted to bandage Maximian, but the cousin politely declined the help of the priestess, and with Varro's assistance, he bandaged himself and leaned against the wall like a dead dog, gasping for breath, and complained to Aaron: "Damn, Aaron, I swear, my next weapon of choice must be the spear!" ”

The cousin pointed to the six or seven bandaged gun holes on his body, even with Eleanor's magic treatment, Maximian still looked hideous in pain: "The long sword, after all, is not as good as the spear!" ”

Aaron did not express his opinion, and although the cousin was angry, it was not unreasonable.

The gun is the king of a hundred soldiers, the head of the nine chiefs, the attack range is large, the attack distance is long, it is a weapon that is much more powerful than the sword, everyone likes to use the sword, because the sword is beautiful, good-looking and has some cultural color, it does not mean that the sword itself is very strong.

Aaron remembered that in his previous life, in the Celestial Empire, the sword was basically reduced to a ceremonial weapon and a portable blade in the Han Dynasty, and was no longer used as the main weapon, and the knife lasted for a longer time, and in the Tang Dynasty, it gradually retreated to the secondary weapon, and the main weapon had become a pure spear, and the secondary weapon was equipped with a knife.

And in specific battles, Aaron has also heard his friends who play military combat say that with a sword against a spear, unless the opponent is a pure newcomer, and his own side is a familiar hand, it is normal to be beaten with a spear with a sword.

The same is true in the Middle Ages in the West, Aaron only knows one exception, and that is the two-handed swordsman of the Shinra, but when it comes to the fighting style of the great swordsman, you will find that there is no difference between their use of two-handed swords and the use of those two-handed long-handled weapons.

One of the most popular genres among warriors and barbarians is the "Master of Great Weapons", where everyone wants to have a great weapon of their own.

As a warrior monk of the Sword Saint Sect, every time the cousin is promoted to a large rank, he can choose a Heavenly Chosen weapon, his apprentice level chooses a sword, because the sword is the most proficient weapon when he is trained by a noble knight, and the elite level chooses a bow, because the bow is an indispensable equipment in Guangze fishing and hunting.

"Cut!" As soon as Maximian's words fell, Disma next to him couldn't help but sneer: "The long weapon is really powerful, but have you ever thought about it?" Is it easy to carry a long weapon with you? Can long weapons be easily used in any terrain? I'm going to let you into a room and arrest someone, can you go around with your spear? ”

"Don't I still have a sword? My Jazz. Maximian shook his head angrily: "Just prepare more." ”

Disma sneered again, he didn't continue to argue, but looked at the dim underground tunnel, and couldn't help but say: "Sure enough, this is another elven ruin, human civilization is like this, on the surface it is a human thing, but it turns out that there are elf things in the bones, and Cormier is even more so, what is brought from the elves, labeled, it is his own." ”

"The country, this country, is not beautiful at all." The second senior muttered, then shook his head, his face full of disgust: "Sometimes I don't understand why the stinky old man wants to pick me up...... Damn it. ”

Disma stopped talking, and the second senior leaned against the wall with heavy resentment, closed his eyes and rested.

Aaron continued to think as he came to Robert's side, looking at his half-conscious cousin, reminiscing about his contact with Lady Mistie.

Now it is clear that it was not Robert who saved him, but Ms. Misty who saved him, because of some things Ms. Misty was not good or didn't want to come forward, and coaxed Robert to come out, and the cousin saved himself, not because the cousin was very capable, but because Ms. Misty behind him wanted to save himself.

Standing on the tuyere, pigs can fly, and so can Robert.

But Aaron was still grateful for his cousin's help, and he sat down beside Robert, and told everyone what he thought about Lady Mistie, and about Robert's sudden appearance to save people, and finally concluded: "I don't think that earthquake was an accident, and I seriously suspect that an enemy is secretly eyeing us, and that he has created a seismology to bury us in the temple or die at the hands of the orcs." ”

"Aaron, you're saying that someone followed us and unleashed seismic?" Eleanor also sat next to Aaron naturally, Miss Priest had already summoned Qing Shui to wash her body a little, she followed Aaron's train of thought and thought: "However, the second senior is a ranger and is also good at forest terrain, who can follow us?" ”

"If you think so, then the other party's strength is obviously much stronger than ours, so why doesn't he just take action?" Eleanor said tentatively, "Is there a purpose?" ”

"Leave this aside, did you think that Robert and Varro were following us, and we didn't notice it at all?" Aaron pinched his chin, and Lord Viscount whispered: "My cousin is an apprentice-level scholar, he has almost no combat ability, and Mr. Varro is only an elite junior mage, and he is not good at tracking, so there is only one possibility, that is, Ms. Misty has very strong strength, she can not only follow us silently, but can even protect my cousin and Mr. Varro." ”

Speaking of this, not only did everyone swallow a mouthful of saliva, but even Aaron was a little afraid.

Ms. Mystie and the mysterious man who followed them were clearly not on the same side.

Some people want to kill themselves, some people want to save themselves.

Aaron looked at Robert, and he noticed that the light of victory on Robert's face dimmed a little with each sentence he analyzed, and his cousin tried to open his mouth several times, but finally closed his mouth silently.

Aaron reached out and pressed Robert's shoulder and comforted: "No matter what, cousin, don't worry, you are a hero, you saved me, saved all of us, I am very grateful to you, don't think so much, your merits, I will report to His Royal Highness the Regent." ”

"No need." Robert twisted his head, he grinned, and showed a hideous smile at Aaron, two broken front teeth that made him slurred: "You know what? Aaron, all I've wanted is this word from you. ”

"With your words, nothing else matters, hehe."

"My words?" Aaron was amazed by Robert's answer.

This person, he took such a big risk and came behind his aunt's back, didn't he just come to make meritorious deeds?

Now, he plans to give it to him, why doesn't he want it again?

Robert looked at Aaron, seeing that he really didn't understand, because of blood loss and broken nose bridge and pale face, gradually flushed, forced to endure the pain, Robert looked around the people around, felt that there were no outsiders, then said vaguely: "You know what? Cousin, I've always been jealous of you. ”

"I know." Aaron nodded.

"Nope! You don't know! Robert gritted his teeth and said angrily: "All you know is that you are a warlock, you are a viscount, you have such a good woman's relationship (cousin peeked at Eleanor here), you are a knight of the inner court, you are a hero of the kingdom!" Do you think I'm jealous of you? Do you think I, Robert, would love to take his place? ”

"Nope! Not at all! I'm telling you! Aaron Salian, I have never been jealous of you, because you have earned it yourself, you have earned it through your own efforts! It's your stuff, what's my business?! ”

"I'm really jealous of you!" Robert grew angry, and he pointed at Aaron's nose: "I know, I always knew!" Our family was able to move into the Triple Crown neighborhood and live a good life like an aristocracy because of you! I was able to rise from scribe to clerk in the Adventurer's Guild because of you! Even, that ghetto bitch made me casually vent on her belly and didn't want my money, or because of you! ”

"Because I'm Aaron Salian's cousin! So I've always enjoyed so much, and I know I'm so proud, why did everyone let me? It's not because of you! ”

"I owe you, I owe you all the time, I know, it makes me feel bad!" Robert gritted his teeth, he clenched his fists, and punched Aaron in the chest, his teeth leaking: "I'm not the kind of shameless person, I also think, I've always thought, even if it's a little bit, even if it's a trivial thing, let me help you, let me repay you, so that we can not owe each other." ”

"But you didn't give me this chance at all!"

"Do you understand? Aaron, I'm just an apprentice-level scholar, I just went to the guild a few days ago to check the attributes, and the priest of the designator told me that my intellectual attributes are too mediocre, and I have no chance to be promoted in my life, let alone advanced dossier scholars! Impossible, impossible! ”

"So, I was in a hurry to come out, so as soon as Lady Missy said I'd agree!" Robert said hatefully: "Because I am still young and bloody, I don't know if I will have such courage to do book work for a few more years!" It's a pity, Aaron, that I'm just one such piece of shit, a clown! ”

"But we're brothers, aren't we? You are my brother, not my benefactor! Robert, speaking of this, seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and with a long sigh of relief, he leaned against the wall relaxedly, and said contentedly: "It is good to be used, to be like a clown, and now, at last, I can say in a dignified manner, that I am not useless to you, that I have helped you, and that is enough." ”

"We're brothers again, Aaron, and I'm at ease." Robert covered his heart: "Here, it's comfortable." ”

With that, Robert used all his strength, and his cousin fell asleep in exhaustion.

But his words made everyone unable to sleep.

Both Disma and Maximian had shocked expressions on their faces, and they were silent for a long time, and Varro let out a long sigh, saying that it was not a loss to make this friend.

Aaron sat there like this, and he was silent for a long, long time, until Eleanor handed him a kettle, and Miss Pastor whispered, "You have a good cousin, Aaron." ”

Aaron took the kettle, he took a sip, and his voice couldn't help but tremble: "It's that I've been ignoring Robert's feelings. ”

"I thought that if I gave him food and clothing, that I arranged a good job for him, and that I gave him a certain social status, he should be satisfied...... It's just that I didn't take into account that people, in addition to their needs for food and drink and entertainment, also have the need to realize their own values. ”

"This is human nature, and human beings are so complex." Eleanor nodded, and Miss Pastor was also shocked by her cousin's emotional outburst: "Aaron, everyone doesn't live just to be fed and clothed. ”

Lord Viscount helped Robert cover the blanket, and he got up: "Let me be alone. ”

Aaron left the protective confines of Eleanor's magic, and he stepped out of the envelope of Leomon's hut alone and into the depths of the underground temple.

Everywhere there are collapsed ruins, broken pillars, rotten furniture.

Turning five or six corners, Aaron came to a library full of miscellaneous items, and he stood with his hands behind his back, silent for a long time.

Human nature, human hearts, human beings are so complex, this race has never lacked ambition, human nature is radiant, but also equally hateful, there is brilliant brilliance in the human heart, and there is also the most filthy darkness.

In the depths of Aaron's soul, something was awakened.

Then he saw the sun.

In the dark underworld, the sun is rising.

It was like the dawn of dawn, touching Aaron's skin and brushing his dragon skin armor. It was covered with a heavy pressure, a scorching heat wave that blinded Aaron's eyes temporarily, causing the Child of Chaos to feel a burning pain, and he subconsciously took a few steps back, blocking his vision with his hands.

Someone appeared in front of him.

It was an ancient Eurasian barbarian, with skin mixed with the bronze and tan of Terra.

Black eyes, black hair, a simple but practical laurel wreath woven from metal leaves, long hair tied up and flying in the wind behind his head, he was draped in gold armor with a flowing cloak tied behind him with a simple strap.

"You?" Aaron felt that his flesh and blood were burning under this golden light, there was a flame beating under his skin, looking directly at him made Aaron feel fear and trembling in the depths of his soul, but that face, he couldn't be mistaken!

Hello Ra, I'm glad to see you again.

The golden-armored giant spoke, speaking an ancient Indo-European language, a rudimentary form of Gothic, but not as complicated.

Almost instinctively, Aaron subconsciously spat out a corresponding sentence from the depths of his soul.

"Your Majesty."
