Chapter 322: Ergot
When Ryan and the three returned to the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Corps station, it was already the middle of the night, and the three of them were all in a heavy mood.
After Ryan pressed to find out who had instructed the attack, the patrolling city guards arrived.
Their fighting was so loud that if it weren't for the remoteness of the area, the city guards would have arrived.
Ryan naturally explained the situation to the commander of the city guard, but the group of swordsmen who came to attack took a bite back and shouted that Ryan had attacked them.
Fortunately, the identity and reputation of this group of swordsmen are too bad, they are a group of mercenaries who often do bad things, and they have already prepared a lot of criminal records in the city guards. And Ryan and the others are innocent students and members of the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Group, plus Ryan's identity as a magician. Therefore, the chief of the city guard believed Ryan's words and arrested all the swordsmen.
As for the mastermind behind the scenes, the swordsman leader who had just confessed to Ryan changed his mind and refused to admit it after the arrival of the city guards. He knew very well that in front of the city guards, Ryan would not dare to kill him.
This result made the three Ryan angry to death, but they were helpless to take these people. Without this confession, Ryan also loses the evidence that Chilly instigated it, and will not be able to trouble Chilly about this issue.
Therefore, the three Ryan who returned to the station were sullen.
"Miss, the head of the regiment and the young master are back. Waiting for you in the lobby? The guard at the door said to Sarasti, who had just entered the door.
Immediately, Saresti cheered and rushed out. Not at all to take into account the image of a lady.
Ryan and Katisha looked at each other. They followed, and they also wanted to meet the leader of the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Regiment. Katisha had seen it several times before, but it was nothing, but Ryan had never seen it, so she was naturally curious and interested.
Ryan and Katisha entered the hall and saw Saresty standing in front of a middle-aged man in his fifties and sixties in the main seat, holding the middle-aged man's hand and chattering about something. Ryan and Katisha couldn't bother them, so they waited at the door. Watch as Saresti speaks.
At first glance, middle-aged people are a little old, but when they look at most of them, they don't feel old. Because he seemed to be in very good spirits, and his eyes showed a compelling gaze, more sharp than that of young people. Needless to say, Ryan knew that this middle-aged man was Sarasti's father, the leader of the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Regiment, Erda.
It is very different from the image in Ryan's imagination, and Ryan's imagination of Erda should be a tall, bearded, and very bold image, but the image he really saw was that he was not tall and quite thin. The beard is a beard, but it is a small wisp of beard like a cultural person.
Ryan's appearance surprised Ryan, but Ryan didn't underestimate him, because in the City of Glory, Eda's figure could be considered a legend. In the City of Glory, there are countless mercenary groups, hundreds of large and small, and the strength of the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Group is not the first, at most it can only be regarded as the top few, and the strength of Erdada is not the first. He seems to be at the level of a level 7 swordsman, but in terms of fame, Erdada is a well-deserved number one. Because over the past few decades, Erda has organized the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Group from a junior swordsman, and has continued to work hard and struggle. In the glorious city where there are countless strong people, a bloody path is forced. Build the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Group from an obscure small mercenary group to a first-class large mercenary group.
Ryan had already learned about Ergo's experience from Katisha before, and was full of admiration and admiration for Ergot. So at this moment, he looked at Erdar very kindly, so that Erda, who was listening to Sarestie's speech, also turned his head to look at Ryan.
In the first seat below the main seat, a young man sits, smiling as she listens to Saresti, interjecting from time to time to say a few words.
The young man was not very old, about the same age as Ryan, a little younger than Souffrey, but he did not have Ryan's ordinary appearance and did not have Souffrey's cold expression. The young man had a fair face, and looked like those noble children, with fine skin and tender flesh, and very gentle. But if you look closely, it is easy to find that the corners of young people's eyes will inadvertently reveal an aggressive gaze, which makes people feel the coldness.
It still doesn't need to be introduced, and Ryan knows that this is Sarestie's older brother, Sallie. Salle is about the same size as his father Ergo, not tall, but he doesn't look so thin, and his sturdy and powerful figure shows off his strength.
Ryan learned from the description in Sarestie's mouth that Sallie's strength was very strong, on par with Sofrey, and there was no opponent below level 7 swordsman. For Sarestie's words, Ryan was a little unconvinced at this time, and wanted to give a discount. When Salesty described Souffle's strength before, she also said that Sofrey had no opponent below level 7 swordsmanship, and Ryan believed it very much at that time. But then Ryan and Souffle fought against each other, and found that Souffle's strength was indeed very strong, but if he was the first person below level 7 swordsman, he couldn't reach it, at most he was one of the more powerful swordsmen. After many years of wandering, Ryan knows that there are many powerful people in this world, and he can be confident, but he must not be complacent, otherwise he may die a miserable death one day.
Therefore, Ryan estimates that Sallie is very strong, maybe stronger than Ryan, but he must not be the first person below the level 7 swordsman in the City of Glory.
Sarestie, who kept talking, finally realized that Ryan and Katisha were standing at the door, and she introduced at this time: "Father, brother, this is the Ryan I told you, and this is my good friend Katisha, you knew each other before." ”
Saraste then introduces Ryan to his father and brother.
"Your Excellency, Honorable Erda, it's a pleasure to meet you." Ryan gave a magician salute and said respectfully.
Then Ryan gave Salle a magician salute, and he didn't dare to snub Salle.
Salle hurriedly got up and returned a swordsman salute. Very unexpectedly, Erda, who was much higher in status and strength than Ryan, also stood up and returned a swordsman salute to Ryan. Obviously, Ryan has a very high status in Ergo's heart, otherwise he would not be so polite.
"Ryan, I've heard your name for a long time, I heard that you are a fellow practitioner of magic fighting qi, and with the level of a level 5 swordsman, you have the same strength as Souffrey, you are young and promising!" Erko praised as soon as he opened his mouth, and from his flat tone, you could feel the kindness in it, and it seemed that he didn't treat Ryan as an outsider.
Ryan hurriedly said a few words of modesty. He was not so proud that he thought he was invincible in the world, so he naturally had to be humble.
Sallie on the side also seemed to be very interested in Ryan, and he couldn't help but say: "Ryan, it's a pleasure to meet you, I heard that you have fought with Souffle, it seems to be on par, and I want to compete with you when I have the opportunity to learn about sword skills." ”
Ryan hurriedly agreed, this kind of competition that can absorb the strengths of others, how could Ryan refuse? It's too late to rejoice.
Ryan then sat down and started a conversation with Ergot, father and son, mainly about Ergot's questions about the magic fighting qi initiate, and Ryan gave some answers.
However, from Erda's expression, Ryan felt that the other party seemed to have something to say to himself, but seemed to be hesitating about something, and Ryan was a little puzzled.
At this moment, Saresti suddenly spoke of the attack she had just encountered. Immediately startled Erda and Sallie, and hurriedly asked about the situation.
As a result, Saresti recounted the incident: during the birthday ball, Ryan and Chilly clashed, and as a result, Chilly was forced to apologize by the third prince and the Lord of Amphina, and then sent someone to attack and retaliate, but was defeated by Ryan.
When Salisty listened, Sallie became very angry, and the more he listened, the angrier he became, and finally, when Salisti finished speaking, Sallie immediately jumped up, and he was furious, screaming for revenge on Chilly.
Although the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Group is not a noble, they are such a large mercenary group, and they are relatively powerful in the City of Glory, so Salle knows Qili. In the past, although Sallie despised Killy's behavior, Chilly did not provoke Killy, and Saltlie did not trouble Killy, at most he just despised it. Now that Chilly has provoked Ryan, and also provoked Saresti who is with Ryan, then Sallie naturally refuses to give up.
Seeing Sallie's impulsive performance, Salistie didn't react in particular, because she had always been so angry and angry to stand up for her whenever she had a grievance.
Seeing Sallie's impulsive reaction, Ryan immediately rushed forward and grabbed Sallie, and kept persuading: "Your Excellency Sallie, please don't be impulsive, we don't have evidence to prove that Chilly did it, if you rush to trouble him, maybe you will fall for his tricks." ”
Sallie struggled to break free of Ryan's grasp, and he kept screaming, still trying to find Chilly.
"That's enough, Salle, Ryan is right, you can't just go to Chilly for revenge." Erdar stood up and stopped Salle.
To be honest, when Eardad was young, he was also as impulsive as Salle, but now that he is older, he has more experience, he naturally matures a lot, and he thinks about a lot of things.
Salle then had to suppress his anger and sit back in his seat.
Next, Ergoda asked Salisty a few details, and made a decision: "Salestie, tomorrow you tell the Lord of Amfina about this, and ask her to put some pressure on this Qili, I believe that he will not dare to be so bold next time." ”
Obviously, Erko didn't want to get his commoner side into a battle with the nobles, and if there was any conflict, let the nobles settle it themselves.
Ryan and Katisha had no opinion on Ergo's decision, and Salle and Saresti naturally did not dare to have an opinion, so it was quickly decided.
Then, considering that it was already late at night, Ryan and Katisha did not go back, and stayed at the Scarlet Rose Mercenary Regiment's residence for the night. (To be continued.) )
