Although they were a little curious about the knight who was captured by the dark elves, Di Xue and Taylor, who had just gotten up, had already played hungry music in their stomachs, and after breakfast, the two of them walked to the place where the knight was held without hurrying under the leadership of the high priest of Weiner.

On the way, High Priest Weiner tactfully expressed one of his requests: "I told you last night about what our people used to do when they strayed into this underground world......

The human man who brought you there now is not very willing to cooperate with us to erase his memory, our spell needs to be carried out under complete mental relaxation, he is also a magician, his mental power is very strong, if he keeps resisting, we have to forcibly seal his mental world and use some drugs to amnestic him.

There will inevitably be some side effects of this, so I called you to ask them to persuade him to cooperate with us. ”

For this request, which was not troublesome, Di Xue and Taylor readily agreed.

Di Xue asked thoughtfully, "I don't know what the 'side effects' the high priest said?"

High Priest Weiner said, "The side effects are not big, but they will sleep for a few days, mainly ...... Ahem, that kind of drug is more difficult to dispense. After saying that, High Priest Weiner showed a pained expression.

Dexue and Taylor: "......"

After a short time, under the leadership of High Priest Weiner, Di Xue and Taylor came to a huge branch of the Ancient Tree of Life, on which were built several small wooden houses, and there were no steel bars or iron pistonas, but Di Xue could sense that there were not weak prohibitions between each wooden house.

Stopping in front of a small cabin, High Priest Weiner smiled wryly and said to Dexue and Taylor, "Please wait a moment. ”

With that, in the surprised eyes of Emperor Snow and Taylor, High Priest Weiner first prepared a guardian magic, and then lifted the ban on the wooden house.

As soon as the ban was lifted, there was a bang, and the door of the wooden house was shaken open, and then nine bachelor-level magic flame balls flew out of the wooden house one after another!

Di Xue's eyes narrowed slightly, the "Triple Fireball" was a magic spell that destroyed the intermediate level of the Bachelor of the Miè Department, it was not very profound, but three "Triple Fireballs" were sent in an instant, and the speed was so fast, the person in the room must be a sage-level magician.

A sage-level magician can already be called a powerhouse on the mainland, but the high priest of Weiner usually seems to be gentle and friendly, but he is a real magician-level powerhouse!

High Priest Weiner stood calmly in front of the cabin, standing as calmly as a mountain behind the guardian magic, in front of him was a dark magic guardian barrier, only to see that the condensed dark element seemed to condense into a black crystal-like object, but it flowed like water in the void, obviously a very powerful elven magic.

The magic fireball launched by the magician in the wooden house seemed to be amazing, but the basin-sized fireball hit this dark guardian magic without making a sound or ripple before it was annihilated, and then turned into the most primitive fire element to dissipate the void.

Looking at this powerful guardian magic, Di Xue couldn't help but think highly of this high priest again.

After the attack of the nine magic fireballs was over, High Priest Weiner said helplessly to the house, "Mr. Hansel, there is no point in what you are doing. ”

The magician in the room, known as Hansel, also knew that he was no match for this dark elf, and said coldly: "Hmph, what are you doing here, I said that I will never agree with you erasing my memory!"

High Priest Weiner sighed and walked into the cabin, and Taylor's face suddenly became a little weird, and he also walked into the cabin with Di Xue.

Although the wooden house is small, all the needs are available, and the conditions for the dark elves to treat the "prisoners" are not harsh, after all, Hansel only had no intention of breaking into Greenstod.

Inside the room stood a tall man, although he was a magician, the man known as Hansel was not wearing the hooded robes that magicians on the continent often wore, but a tight black leather coat and a handsome black trench coat.

Han Seller has short golden hair and pale green eyes, typical of the characteristics of the northerners of the empire, his figure is very tall and strong, not as weak as other magicians, if he hadn't performed magic just now, just looking at the appearance of Di Xue would have thought that he was a warrior.

Hansel looked coldly at the three people who walked into the wooden house, and when he saw Taylor, Hansel said with a surprised face: "Little Taylor, why are you here?"

Taylor shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "That's what I want to ask you, Hansel, how did you get here?"

High Priest Weiner was stunned for a moment, these two people seemed to know each other?

Di Xue listened to the sound of "little Taylor", looked at Taylor's acquaintance with Hansel, and for some reason felt a strange feeling in his heart, and couldn't help but tighten Taylor's hand a little, he looked at Taylor and said, "You know?"

Taylor nodded and said, "Hansel and his sister Gretel are well-known bounty hunters, and I have been on missions with them on several occasions. ”

Di Xue was relieved, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't know why he was relieved, all in all, he was relieved to hear that Taylor and Hansel had just had an ordinary cooperative relationship......

In the past two years, Taylor has often gone out to carry out some Brotherhood of Light missions, and the Brotherhood of Light has something to do with the Bounty Hunter Guild on the mainland, and it is not surprising that Taylor sometimes cooperates with Bounty Hunters for some special reasons.

Hansel briefly explained the reason why he entered Greenstod: "It's really unlucky, it was just an ordinary gathering mission, but on the way, Gretel and I accidentally found a crystal eater! The crystal eater sensed that there was a magic crystal mine underground, and I thought I had made a fortune......

After the crystal eater found a suspected hole leading to the underground, I was going to go down to explore the situation first, and when I found this underground world, I wanted to go back to my sister to explore together, but when I went back, I found that the cave entrance had collapsed, so I had to return the same way and ...... It didn't take long to leave before he was caught by this group of elves. ”

Taylor also briefly explained the reason why she came here, and when the part about Di Xue was mentioned, Taylor suddenly stopped to look at Di Xue, she didn't know if Di Xue minded if she told him his identity to Hansel.

Han Sayer naturally noticed Di Xue a long time ago, in fact, he has been looking at Di Xue since Di Xue entered the door, a beautiful man like Di Xue is the focus of attention wherever he goes, even Han Sell, who is used to seeing the world, is amazed in his heart.

Especially...... The characteristics of Di Xue's black hair and blue eyes, everyone knows what this noble and rare hair color and eye color represents, plus he and Taylor have been holding hands intimately, could he be ...... Hansel couldn't help but be shocked by what was going on in his heart.

Hansel had heard of who Taylor was following in the Eternal City......

Di Xue had naturally noticed Han Seel's gaze, the corners of his mouth furrowed, knowing that this person might have guessed his identity, he took out the Rose Knight badge given to him by the High Priest of Weiner, looked at the badge and said indifferently: "I heard, this knight badge is yours?"

This action made Hansel notice the rose ring on Di Xue's hand, and there was no doubt about him at the moment, only to see Hansel kneeling on one knee, holding his hand on his chest and solemnly saying: "Hereditary Rose Knight Hansel Wood, I have seen His Highness, and the glory of the rose will never wither!"

Di Xue gently helped him up and said, "Get up, don't be polite." ”

After thinking for a while, Di Xue said, "You are a descendant of Knight Barry Wood?"

Han Seller was shocked: "Your Highness knows the name of the ancestor?"

Di Xue said: "The year of the award engraved on this knight's medal is the first year of the imperial calendar, and it is engraved with a dragon pattern, looking at your hair color and eye color, it should be a northerner of the empire, three of the ninety-nine magic dragon knights of the Divine Law Legion awarded in the first year of the founding of the country are surnamed Wood, and only one of them is from the north of the empire, so I guess you are the inheritor of the Wood family." ”

Han Sell said with emotion: "I didn't expect His Highness to remember that among the ninety-nine dragon knights back then, there was my ancestor Barry Wood. ”

Di Xue looked at him and said solemnly: "I remember the name of each of the three hundred magician members of the Divine Law Legion who expanded the territory with Emperor Xiao Ancestor. ”

As soon as these words came out, Han Sell's feelings of respect and even some emotion. Today, after a long fourteen epochs, how many people will care about the names of the heroes who once shed their blood for the empire?

Di Xue's words made Han Sayer have a trace of real respect for him in his heart.

High Priest Weiner spoke: "It turns out that he is a descendant of the dragon knights of the Divine Law Legion, and the deeds of your ancestors are respectable, but ......" Weiner glanced at Emperor Xue.

Di Xue knew that this was asking him to persuade Han Sayer, hoping that he would understand and cooperate with the Dark Elf Clan's request.

Di Xue thought for a moment and said to Weiner and Taylor, "I want to talk to Hansel alone. ”

Priest Weiner glanced at Di Xue in surprise, and didn't know why he wanted to talk to Hansel alone, but he still quietly followed Taylor out.

There were only two people left in the cabin, Di Xue and Han Seel, and Di Xue did not mention the matter entrusted by the priest of Weina first, but asked, "I heard from Taylor that you and your sister are bounty hunters, how did the descendants of the dragon knights of the gods fall to such a point?"

The status of a bounty hunter on the mainland is much higher than that of ordinary mercenaries, but it is still not a noble profession.

Han Sel sighed and said with a wry smile: "The world has changed, although the ancestors were a generation of dragon knights, but after so many years, my family has long since declined, and now only my sister and I are left to depend on each other, my sister and I like freedom by nature, yearning for an unrestrained life, so I don't want to go to the army, or be a personal bodyguard for the aristocratic caretaker or something, as a bounty hunter can go around the adventure experience, travel all over the continent, is exactly what my sister and I want." ”

At the mention of his sister, the corners of Hansel's mouth couldn't help but show a smile, but then he thought that Gretel was probably anxiously looking for him now, and hurriedly said to Di Xue: "Your Royal Highness, my sister Gretel is still alone in the fog forest, I see that you have a good relationship with this group of elves, can you let them let me out quickly?!"

Di Xue shook her head and said, "I can't be the lord of this, you know what the High Priest of Weiner means, and the secret of this underground space...... There is indeed a need for secrecy. ”

Looking at Han Seer's somewhat ugly face, Di Xue continued: "Actually, I want to say that it doesn't hurt that you agreed to the conditions of the Weiner priest, and you also saw that this group of elves are very friendly, although the matter of erasing memories is ...... It sounds a little scary, but it's only a short-term, memory of Greenstod, and I can assure you they won't hurt you. ”

Han Seer's face softened a little, but he still said a little reluctantly: "But it doesn't feel good to make people tinker in their own spiritual world......

Your Highness, I see that you are also a magician, you should know that this kind of spiritual magic is the most prone to sequelae, who knows if I will become a fool as soon as they make me?"

Hansel's worries are normal, no magician would want others to cast magic on their spiritual world, the spiritual world is the most important place for magicians, what if it is bad and swollen - _—|||

Di Xue told him very seriously: "Probably not, I heard that they often do this kind of thing." ”

Hansel: "......"

Seeing that Han Sai'er was still a little depressed in his eyes, Di Xue suddenly thought about it and said, "Actually, if you really don't want to be erased by the dark elves, I have a way. ”

Han Saier's eyes lit up and he said, "Oh, Your Highness, please speak." ”

"You are a hereditary knight of the roses, and if you wish, I can grant you the title of royal guardian knight in the name of the prince, so that if you swear in the name of the guardian knight not to reveal the location and secrets of Greenstad to others, I may be able to convince the priest of Weiner." ”

Unlike the hereditary knighthood on Hansel, the Royal Guardian Knight is not a knighthood, but in a sense it is more noble than the hereditary knighthood.

In the eyes of the people of the Manhua Empire, the title only represents the glory of the ancestors or family, and the hereditary title is just a kind of inheritance, but it is a kind of inheritance of the ancestors. However, the royal guardian knight represents his own strength and is recognized by the imperial family, which is the embodiment of personal strength and honor. Under normal circumstances, the title of Royal Guardian Knight will only be awarded to the best of the Royal Guard or a member of the Royal Family.

For example, Captain Richard and Uncle Xu have the title of Royal Guardian Knight.

The Emperor may grant the title of Guardian Knight at will, but a prince or princess can only grant others the title of Guardian Knight ten times in his lifetime.

So for Hansel, a descendant of the declining knight family, this is a very precious honor, and the title of royal guardian knight is not much more noble than the hereditary knighthood on him.

Han Seller was really surprised this time: "This ......" For this kind of pie-in-the-sky thing, he didn't dare to respond to Di Xue for a while.

Di Xue saw the hesitation in his eyes, smiled slightly, and said: "I just want to help you get out for the sake of Taylor's face, I know that you like freedom by nature, and you have a sister who can't let go, so although you are loyal to me, you don't have to follow me, and I won't issue any orders to you, you can continue your adventure on your own." Of course, if one day you want to come to Eternal City to develop, you can come to me at any time, and I can make friends with you. ”

said so, but Di Xue is not without selfishness, this trip to the fog forest made him see that there are many strong people in this world who are far beyond him, and the assassination he was subjected to a few days ago made him feel that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, these things made him discover the lack of his own strength and feel a trace of vigilance.

Recently, Di Xue has been thinking about how she should go in the future, how to improve her strength, and whether she needs to develop some of her own forces.

It just so happened that at this time he met Hansel, this bounty hunter is a friend of Taylor, although he is only twenty-six or seventeen years old, he is already a sage-level magician, his talent is very good for ordinary people, and he belongs to the kind of person who walks on the tip of the knife all the year round, and has a special temperament that is different from other magicians, and is a real fighter and adventurer, which makes him have an idea and try to throw an olive branch to Hansel.

Han Seller was also a little hesitant at first in the face of Di Xue's olive branch, for a bounty hunter like him, it was not a big deal to express his allegiance to Di Xue on the surface, well, it can also be said that people like him are very thick-skinned...... So listening to Di Xue's words and looking at his sincere eyes, Han Sayer couldn't help but feel a little moved.

For an Empire, glory and fame are sometimes more attractive than money and all-encompassing, especially for a family member whose ancestors have produced heroes who have been successful in battle, and although he has the title of hereditary knight, the royal guardian knight is also a great honor.

And Di Xue's feeling to Han Seller is not as annoying as the members of the big family or the high-ranking officials of the empire that he usually contacts, he is very calm and indifferent talking to himself from the beginning of entering the door, and there is no arrogant tone between his words, unlike those high-ranking officials and nobles who are a baron, a minister, a city lord or something.

The most important thing is that the unfathomable aura that Di Xue gave him, Han Sayer silently sensed it several times and didn't sense Di Xue's true realm strength, he has been wandering on the mainland with his sister since he was a child, and he doesn't know how many battles with robber hunters and monsters he has gone through in life and death to get to this realm today, and the pampered prince in front of him, who is six or seven years younger than himself, makes himself unable to figure it out, which really surprises him.

Han Sayer glanced at Di Xue deeply, and thought silently in his heart: "Perhaps, I can use him to restore the glory of the Fù family......"

In Di Xue's calmly waiting eyes, Han Sayer finally made up his mind, and he said, "Your Highness, your conditions are indeed very exciting to me, but I still want to ask you a question?"

Di Xue said, "Please speak." ”

Hansel looked at him expectantly: "Royal Guardian Knight...... Do you get paid?"
