Chapter 227: Heart for the Holy See!
Whether or not to smoke the butt of a stupid apprentice is a private matter for Xu Shi, and the crusade against the sea god is imminent, but it is a public matter that everyone has to face.
"So, you're going to give yourself a shot?"
Looking at the serious Xia Wuwu in front of him, Xie Qingyan's brows furrowed slightly, and he put on a look of embarrassment, "Are you sure?" It's risky. β
"Don't scare me with that look."
Xia Kitten smiled, "Sublimation II wasn't developed on the first day, you have already used it yourself, right?" β
"Cut."
The dog woman pursed her lips, "Who scared you, just curious why you didn't look for me sooner or later, but at this time, I brought it up......"
"Because I'm going to break through too."
Xia Wuwu said seriously, "I don't know how long I've been staying in A+, and of course I hope to step into S as soon as possible." β
"Isn't it for me?"
Xu Shi suddenly came out of nowhere, and asked with a sincere face.
ββ¦β¦ Not for you, but for whom? β
It should be the best moment to play tsundere, but Xia Wuwu didn't deny it at all, but just twisted him angrily, "Some people's combat power is a mess, let him train but not train, it can only be more snacks for me, who is a wife." β
"After all, we're not just going to face Poseidon, we're going to have a lot of possible backstabs, aren't we?"
Several people did not deny that Xia Wuwu's concerns were not groundless, saying that it was a group to crusade against the "Sea God", but in fact it was more like a battle royale.
Not to mention the most important aspect of the Holy See, with Luo Yu's character, they will definitely not give up, and they have also sent additional manpower, which is even more necessary to guard.
The Holy See dispatched seven Silver Knights, which was more than two-thirds of the total number of Templars, and it could be seen from the performance of Luo Yu and Lu Baiyan that this group of people must not be underestimated.
Not to mention that there are a large number of priests and priests, although these people do not have a high status, but they can't keep any of the hidden dragons and crouching tigers among them, and they don't have time to investigate them one by one, no matter how they say, they can't take it lightly.
This is only one of them, even if Cheng Gujian, who seems to be an ally, can't relax either, when the cooperation is finalized, everyone knows that the relationship between the two parties is just a use of the relationship, and if something really happens, it will be good if they don't sell them, and they have to rely on themselves.
In this case, even if Xu Shi saved a back hand, on the surface, she and Yu Xingchuan, as well as Shen Qin, the three A+-level combat "upgraders", seemed to be not enough.
"Mrs. Lao has to worry a lot."
Xu Shi scratched his cheeks embarrassedly, originally said that he was going to follow the training, but he has been training on the recliner these days, you say that he still has something to say, I want to teach my apprentice, how can I have this time.
So this embarrassment is also what he pretends to be as always, but although his demeanor looks frivolous, his heart is also warm.
It is very touching to be able to say something like "I am improving my strength to protect you" at any time, and it is also very consistent with what she said before, "I am willing to be a sword in your hand".
Of course, he also wants to say that being a husband is actually not as unbearable as you said, "Yujing" is in hand, no matter how you say it, it will not be powerless, but the need for protection is also true, and the shortcomings of non-combat personnel are vividly reflected.
He also suddenly wanted to complain, although he was in a world where supernatural abilities and technology coexisted, but the cultivation method of the "Ascender" still had a little bit of Xianxia fantasy, using this analogy, Xia Kitten was stuck in the bottleneck period for a long time, and needed a little help to push her, so that she could successfully break through to a higher level.
"It's cheap, it's cheap."
Xia Wuwu snorted, "It's not just for you, not everyone is as unenterprising as you, I also want to explore a higher realm." β
This is also her true words, who doesn't want their ability to be as strong as possible? It's not even a day or two that she has thought like this, to be precise, as early as the riot in Night Sin City, the moment she saw Wen Shengkui make a move to kill Long Tianding in an instant, she had a yearning for that kind of absolute strength.
However, discerning people can also see that this is to make up for it afterwards, and the main reason is the former.
Yes, it's still tsundere...... But she ate it in her mouth eight lifetimes earlier, and it doesn't matter if she is arrogant or not, it's more like a little fun to flirt and scold.
"Anyway, it's worth the reward, and I'm very happy for my husband."
Xu Shi did not shy away from it, picked up her face and kissed it hard.
"Who wants you...... Hmmm......"
Xia Wuwu symbolically struggled, but his body was very honest, and he took the initiative to hug him, tiptoeing, and kissed him fiercely.
"Wow."
Xia Ke'an, who was on the side, blinked, and instantly covered the eyes of the two sisters, Feng and Ling, "Don't look at it, little kids." β
This action is very joyful, she can't cover the eyes of the two flower girls at a small point, one of them may not be blocked, and what should be seen has not fallen at all.
The main thing is that she enjoys it herselfβshe used to think that there was no shame between her niece and the little boy, and when they were in the ward, she had enough belly to write a book, and no one could bear the shock of riding in the face.
But gradually she also found it interesting, and even liked to be a bystander...... Not only Xu Shi and Xia Wuwu, she wanted to see the living spring palace with whom he and whom, but it was a pity that the bad fathers and bad mothers didn't give her this opportunity......
"Who the hell is a child?"
Pan Feng couldn't laugh or cry at the little sister's childish behavior, but he was still very willing to cooperate with her, and pretended to be covered by her eyes.
Pan Ling is also very cooperative, but not active, but passive, watching the master and the master kiss, her face is even redder than the person concerned, and she doesn't know where to fly for a long time......
ββ¦β¦β
Xie Qingyan opened his mouth and didn't say anything more, but he was a little emotional when he saw it.
No matter what Xia Wuwu thinks, her attitude of "becoming stronger in order to protect Xu Shi" falls in the eyes of the dog woman as if it was for her.
It's just a medicine, where is the risk, it makes life and death the same...... But she still didn't feel it for a reason.
"Would you like a stitch too?"
So she looked at Yu Xingchuan, who was on the edge of OB, and asked tentatively.
ββ¦β¦ I'll protect the young master. β
The adjutant's lady paused, then smiled and avoided the serious.
When did you start calling him Young Master too? Xie Qingyan was still surprised, but the other party's obvious idea made her a little more comfortable.
This is the Lord who wants both and wants, and wants to get the favor of Xu Shi without paying anything? How can it be?
But it's not interesting to compare with this kind of person, and after thinking about it, she just spread her hands and helped Xia Wuwu prepare medicine.
Medication is indeed not a life and death parting, Xia Wuwu is also very angry, he didn't have to be in a coma for three or four days without an injection like Xu Shi, and it was over in ten minutes.
"Is that okay?"
Xia Kitten was the only one who received the injection of "Sublimation II" except for the dog woman herself, and seeing that the process was so easy, she was a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Well, that's fine."
Xie Qingyan nodded and handed her a medicine bottle, "The effect of Sublimation II is subtle, it will not affect daily actions, just take one stabilizer every day...... I'm going to go with me anyway, and if there's anything you need to pay attention to, you'll definitely feel it yourself. β
"Thank you."
Xia Wuwu was very happy, she was not worried about any side effects, but was more looking forward to what new effects her abilities could develop after breaking through the S-rank.
"You're welcome."
The dog woman forced a smile, and her tone couldn't help but become sour again.
"By the way, do you want to go to school today?"
Yu Xingchuan raised his hand and asked.
"It's the last day, let's have a beginning and an end."
Xu Shi hugged his wife and waited for her to get into the carriage like a confinement child, and the two mixed honey.
The time to train the soldiers of the Hualan Empire is not too long, and it is not half a month to complete the battle, but the main thing is to teach them how to use weapons, and it is not difficult.
Even if they don't appear, the other party will still go on an expedition.
But having said that, there have been more and more onlookers on the school grounds these days - only the princes and ministers of the royal family are allowed to come in, and everyone wants to see what kind of improvement these outsiders from Night Sin City can bring to their soldiers.
Today is even more impassable, strictly speaking, Xu Shi and his party are late, and when he arrives at the place, he finds that his usual special position is also occupied.
Who is so bold...... Oh, it's the Empress.
I'm afraid no one would have thought that the little Empress Dongfang Xiao would come to this kind of stinky and sweaty place in person, and Cheng Gujian would accompany her, patiently explaining the results of these days.
"Her Majesty."
It was her words, and Xu Shi didn't want to talk about the first-come-first-come-first-served issue, so he just saluted and greeted her.
"Messenger."
Seeing him coming, Dongfang Xiao was also very pleased, and stood up from his seat and bowed slightly, "I have already heard from the Grand Duke of the Ancient Sword that with the help of several people, the strength of the knights of the royal court has been greatly improved in a short period of time, thank you." β
"Your Majesty is gracious."
Xu Shi smiled slightly, "Since we are a cooperative relationship, of course we will not slack off on these things." β
"You can't say that, you're doing things for my people."
Dongfang Xiao also smiled, "Originally, I was worried that this expedition would be dangerous, but now...... At least the worry is much less. β
"Tomorrow when you go on the expedition, I will personally see you off, I wish you a victory, if you triumph, I will not treat you badly."
"Oh?"
Xu Shi raised his eyebrows, "I don't know how Her Majesty wants to reward us?" β
The corners of Cheng Gujian's eyes twitched imperceptibly, you are really climbing, this is obviously polite, okay, you really asked...... And this hasn't gone to sea yet, you look like you've already won......
But thinking of Xu Shi's character, it seems that this will indeed be what he said.
ββ¦β¦ If we can successfully destroy the "Sea God", I will find a way to meet your request at that time. β
Dongfang Xiao was also stunned for a moment, but quickly came back to his senses and wrote him a blank check.
"Then I'll thank you in advance."
Xu Shi laughed, "Your Majesty the Empress can rest assured, with me joining forces with the Grand Duke of the Ancient Sword, I will definitely not let the Holy See take the lead." β
"If that's the case, it's always the best."
The little queen's eyes flashed with joy.
But after thinking about it, she added lightly. "But if it's for the people of the empire...... Just win. β
β¦β¦
Xu Shi cooperated with the royal family hotly, and the Holy See did not relax.
In the most spectacular cathedral in the main city of the Empire, several people in bright silver armor were kneeling on one knee and saluting the people on the stage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the sea god has been in trouble for a long time, and we must not take it lightly this time."
The old man on the stage was dressed in a red robe and an exaggerated high hat, and spoke hoarsely under the light.
"I will live up to the Pope's trust!"
Several silver knights responded in unison, each with a voice.
Especially the person at the head, with red hair tied into a high ponytail, and a look as firm as a rock.
"Not only that, but your safety is also a top priority."
Beside the Pope, someone spoke again, and she was shrouded in a white veil, which made people a little unclear.
I saw the white-gauze girl slowly walking down the steps and helping the red-haired woman up with her own hands, "Especially Sister Yiyan, you are the chief knight, and everyone needs you to take care of it." β
"Your Highness."
Knight Chief Qin Yiyan nodded vigorously, "Leave it to me." β
"When you say that, I'm relieved."
The saint nodded, stretched out her hand and gently put it on her shoulder, "I can't do anything but bless you before you go on the expedition, and lead the nuns to pray for you day and night afterward...... To refuel. β
As she spoke, a faint light lit up on her hand, gently rippling on Qin Yiyan's armor.
After blessing her, she did the same again, and did the same for the several silver knights behind Qin Yiyan.
Just counted the points, and she suddenly realized that something was wrong, "What about Luo Yu?" β
"I'm sorry, I'm late."
After a while, Luo Yu belatedly entered the church, "I also ask Her Highness the Holy Maiden and the Pope to forgive me." β
ββ¦β¦ Have you been baptized again? β
Lu Baiyan seemed to notice something, and blurted out with some surprise, "I have been baptized six times in half a month...... You're really desperate. β
The so-called baptism is a kind of trial within their Holy See, and those who pass it can get a great reward.
But this frequency ...... Of course, Lu Baiyan knew why Luo Yu was suddenly so hardworking, but he was also amazed by his talent, it is not easy for ordinary people to pass once, he passed six times in a short time, and his strength may also increase by leaps and bounds.
"It's out of the way."
Her Highness spoke softly, "You are doing this for the sake of the Holy See, what is the crime?" Come, let me bless you once too. β
"Yes!"
Luo Yu gritted his teeth, the pain of baptism made him not feel very comfortable.
But when he saw the smile of His Highness the Holy Maiden, he suddenly felt that it was all worth it.
Even the unwillingness in my heart is a little less, compared to Pan Feng and Pan Ling, Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden is naturally more fascinating, and it is not a grade at all.
"All for the Holy See!" He said heavily.
ββ¦β¦ You're right. β
After closing her eyes and blessing him, the holy woman also restrained her smile and looked even more holy.
"Everything...... For the Holy See. β
The group is joking with you, how can you really break it, but you are also perverted enough......
