As the most powerful man in the Villas Mountains and the uncrowned king of Robinia Town, Brian Buckler's life can be described as wonderful.

There are many rumors about him, and one of the most exciting is this:

The rebellion of the Buckler family killed Paul, the "bear of the earth" at the age of eighteen, and at the age of twenty, in order to seize a batch of valuable gems, they sacked a caravan and killed more than 70 people in the entire caravan, including four high-ranking warriors and twelve fourth-class warriors. And he did all this just to win the heart of a local noblewoman.

The day after that beautiful night, Brian Buckler's behavior was exposed due to the woman's stupid ostentatious behavior, and he set out on the road to death.

He created a series of bloody crimes while fleeing, looting everywhere and killing indiscriminately, which became a major public hazard for the Reims Empire at that time. On one occasion, he killed a mage* for a wand of ordinary value, which greatly challenged the majesty of the mage, and Winrington's Arcane Tower personally issued a hunt for him.

But the result is that this guy is still living freely under the pursuit of the magician, and a year later he ransacked a church of the Church of the Holy Spirit, killing two holy knights.

As a result, the hunt warrant from the Holy Spirit Church was also issued, and Brian Buckler was saddled with the three arrest warrants of the Empire, the Arcane Tower Hunt and the Church Hunt and Kill Warrant, but he was still living freely.

This bastard has been murderous all his life, lustful for money, but cunning and alert.

After he came to the Villas Mountains, he took a fancy to the complex mountainous terrain and chaotic security conditions, so he took root here. With his powerful force and ferocity, he created the Wolf Regiment, and eventually became the largest force leader in the area.

Whether the rumors are true or not, no one can tell, there is no doubt that compared to Brian Buckler, Huyglaire may be famous enough on the Empire's wanted list, but at best he can only be regarded as a rising star, while Brian Buckler is a real old-timer.

And now, Huey Gler stood in front of this old man of his own.

He could clearly see Brian Buckler's fierce wolf-like eyes. His stature is not high, but his whole flesh and bones are extremely well-proportioned, which is the result of long-term cultivation, and the proportions of his body are adjusted to the best by themselves.

His hands are thick, and his mixed body is full of explosive power, but he can control his aura freely, so that it does not overflow at will.

Xiu Yi was almost certain that this man was not only already a sea warrior, but he was also approaching a breakthrough in strength, and his realm had reached the point of use.

The ten levels of samurai represent ten levels and have ten realms at the same time.

But there are only the first three levels, and the levels and realms are synchronized.

After that, the promotion of samurai was still based on the basic standard of fighting energy. As long as you reach a certain level of Dou Qi energy, you can count it as a corresponding level, but this does not mean absolute strength. The realm is another expression of strength, and it is not only applicable to samurai, but also to mages.

The so-called realm is actually the ability to understand and use power.

The realm of the primary level is to strengthen the body, and to put it bluntly, it is to make yourself stronger. It's like working people who have more strength and more work, so they are naturally more popular than those with less strength. And entering the second stage is homeopathy. The so-called homeopathy is to begin to understand the rules of how things work and learn to act according to the rules. It's like a part of the working people who are flexible in their minds and begin to know how to do things according to the regulations, which is obviously much more promising than selling their strength.

When you reach the third level, it is transparency. That is, to begin to master the power in one's own hands, just like the skill level of the worker.

To the fourth level, it is to borrow. At this time, the samurai can use the power of Dou Qi to do something that only a mage can do. Therefore, the gap between the fourth-level samurai and the ** samurai has increased significantly. It's as if you're not just a worker, you're a backer.

When you reach the fifth level, it's about exertion. This is equivalent to the workers becoming small leaders, who can use some rules to drill loopholes and serve themselves. Embodied in the battle of the samurai's ability, it is the absolute suppression of the low-level samurai.

At the sixth level, it is control. At this time, the small boss became the big boss, further increasing the scope of his own rights and interests.

The first three levels are equivalent to self-strengthening, and the middle three levels are equivalent to having a certain right to use the rules and becoming the objects of protection of the rules. And when it reaches the seventh level, it is to use potential. At this time, it is equivalent to a manager-level person, and a certain range of rule interpretations can already be carried out. Not only accept the protection of the rules, but also use the rules to sanction the other party.

The eighth level is to build momentum, and the ninth level is to supplement the momentum, which are both further increases in the use of rules. The tenth level is sanctions. That is, a person like a general manager can fully use the form of rules to make decisions that are beneficial to him.

And the legendary Sanctuary actually refers to the highest mastery in the realm. Once you become a Sanctuary, you can break through the existing rules of power and reformulate new rules of power. However, in order to reach this point, it is necessary to achieve a breakthrough after reaching the tenth level of both strength and realm.

The realm of the breath of the wind that Xiu Yi has reached in the wind system* technique, his status is actually equivalent to the realm of the power in the seventh-level realm of the samurai. It can be said that his understanding and progress in the realm of demons is a rapid progress, which is also closely related to his identity as an alchemist. The vast majority of alchemists have a stronger understanding of the realm than the power itself. As far as the analogy is concerned, they are the most active kind of people in the enterprise, who are good at being people, but not good at doing things. It's just that it's extremely rare to have such a level of power as Xiuyi.

In reality, the vast majority of samurai and demon masters actually advance faster than their mastery of the realm. After all, the latter requires comprehension, not cultivation.

For example, Lancelot, although he has reached the standard of a tenth-level star warrior in terms of strength, in terms of realm, he has actually only reached the level of eighth-level momentum. Padgett, on the other hand, is in the same realm as Lancelot. Therefore, he can say that the apprentices he taught will never be worse than Lancelot, because there is not much difference in their understanding of power, only in the possession of power itself. In terms of the experience of the disciples, Padgett was far superior to Lancelot.

And Chakra, who is also a warrior of the earth, his realm has just reached the point of seventh-level power, if he is allowed to fight with Padgett, it will definitely be Chakra.

As for Xiu Yi, although his own fighting energy has only just reached **, he has experienced the teachings of Lancelot and Pagett successively, and has a thorough ability to understand things, so he is also higher than his strength in the way of the samurai.

His realm is now the fourth level of borrowing. It is precisely for this reason that in the battle of the samurai of the same level, even without the assistance of the demon*, Xiui has absolute certainty of defeating the opponent.

And Brian Buckler, who is now standing in front of Xiu, is not only a seventh-level ocean warrior, but also a seventh-level warrior with a power realm, which is relatively rare.

It can be said that this person's strength is infinitely close to Chakle's level.

At this moment, Huey looked at Brian Buckler, and his vigilance was greatly raised.

However, Brian Buckler's realm certainly surprised Thuey, but Huey's performance shocked Buckler even more.

When he first heard the rumors, he didn't believe that a sixth-level master like Ablit would die at the hands of a young man whose hair had not yet grown. But when he saw that Hue killed Inigo as easily as a chicken, his neat skill, his strange and unpredictable* technique, and the ferocity of his quick decision all made Buckler feel a chill.

This young man's shot is fierce, vicious, accurate, and deadly, but the fighting energy he has is not high, and he really only has the strength of **. But he can wield it with several times more power.

And on the boy's shoulder, there are still two small birds with red wings.

Others may not have realized it, but Buckler realized it for the first time, and it was the blazing bird.

As a ninth-level high-level demonic beast, the Blazing Bird is a top-notch existence in itself. Not to mention Xiuyi's own combat power, this pair of blazing birds alone is very difficult for Buckler to deal with.

Therefore, at this moment, Buckler clearly attached importance to the arrival of Huey.

It was this scruple about the other party's strength that made him not act immediately at the beginning of the meeting. Otherwise, Buckler prefers to solve the problem in the traditional way of the robbers: take it first, then talk.

This is also the reason why Xiu Yi killed people before he appeared. Don't worry about irritating them, the robbers only care about money, life, dignity and friendship, they don't care. As long as the other person is strong enough, he will be able to gain respect.

The proper display of means and strength will make his opponent much more cautious in his next decisions.

At this moment Huey came to Buckler's side, ignoring the large group of bandits around him, and said, "Let your people go away, I want to talk to you alone." ”

Brian Buckler's eyes paused for a moment on Huey's body, and then a deep voice rang out, "So, you're coming for me?"

"Yes. ”

Buckler thought for a moment, then said, "Bilas brings in a lot of outlaws every year. There are always those who try to challenge the position of supreme power. In the past ten years, I have helped the Lance Empire kill at least thirty notorious fellows. Many times I think that the reason why the Reims Empire did not send heavy troops to encircle Villas is because they always put their hopes on us for the prisoners they can't catch. In a sense, the Reims Empire owes me a great deal of favor, and they should award me a badge of sin nemesis. ”

The robbers around him laughed, and it was clear that Buckler was very confident in what he said.

Xiui shook his head: "I don't have the slightest interest in the throne of supreme power. You have been a leader here and will be. If anything, you'll just live more comfortably and faster. ”

Buckler narrowed his eyes at Huey, looking like he was thinking.

Huey didn't know what Buckler was thinking, but he could see that this sea warrior wasn't the kind of fool who knew how to rely only on force and had no brains. In fact, he was quite cautious.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "If what you have to say doesn't interest me, I don't mind exchanging you for that big bounty." ”

"I can give you more than that. ”

"So...... Follow me. ”

A smug smile twisted into the corners of Huey's mouth.

He followed in Buckler's footsteps, and as he passed by Leyler's side, he said lightly: "Whoever goes with Bass to the girls, see how much they have spent." For every kimmwitt spent, hang upside down for an hour. As for you, you have used the dirty adjective three times in succession. Hang upside down for three hours. ”

"Yes, master. Lehrer replied respectfully, "If you can come back alive, I will do it." ”

"You don't have to worry about that at all. ”

Ryan Buckler's mansion is a three-storey red clay building in the heart of the town.

As the most powerful leader in the town, all the shops in the town pay 30% of the profits to Brian Buckler every month. And Brian Buckler is not going to take that money for nothing. Any disruption by outsiders will be dealt with by Brian Buckler and his wolf regiment. Of course, the cannibalism of the thieves was not within the scope of his services.

It has been said that bandits in the Bilas Mountains are a guerrilla business, and Brian Buckler is a sit-and-go business, and that is true.

According to the law of blood reward, when the power of the thieves reaches a certain level, they will carry out regional management with the expansion of their strength and the expansion of their territory, and plunder by providing protection through sitting on the ground and charging fees, which is obviously safer and easier to get more money and easier than robbing business travelers.

This is the ultimate direction of almost any bandit syndicate in the civilized world, from robbing bandits to regional protection. Despite being the same bandits, the nature has changed a lot. The latter tend to be more acceptable to civilians than the former. At least they pay in the way they buy services, not in the way they are plundered.

To Huey's surprise, Brian Buckler appears to be a rude character on the surface, but his home layout is quite emotional. On the periphery of the Red Building, people use green vines to decorate the whole small building, and the ground is a path paved with white gravel, which is extremely smooth. The color combination of the small building is unique and looks fresh and elegant.

Following Brian Buckler into the small building, Huey noticed that there was a middle-aged man who looked elegant inside. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, two mustaches at the corners of his mouth, and a neat head, dressed in a black gown.

Not far from him, there sat a pale and shriveled old man. His image resembles that of a skull with a mess of white hair on top of it, and deep-set eye sockets that shimmer with a faint green light.

The old man had a crystal ball in his hand, and it wasn't until Hue appeared in the room that he covered it with a black cloth.

There was no doubt that the old man was also a *master, but Xiu Yi was not sure whether he was an alchemist or a demon. The magic power fluctuation on his body is not obvious, and he has a crystal ball in his hand, which looks like an alchemist, but Xiu Yi knows that most of the magician criminals will almost take the initiative to learn some alchemist abilities.

Unlike the *Master of the Arcane Tower, any *mage who has committed a crime and has not been pardoned by the Empire is no longer seeking to be strong, but to be safe. As a result, people like them tend to be much more knowledgeable.

Seeing Xiu Yi come in, the middle-aged man who was reading a book stood up: "He is the one who turned Lei Lele and them into a group of gentlemen?"

From the tone of his voice, he doesn't have much awe for Brian Buckler. As for the old man, he didn't get up at all.

Brian replied, "This kid wants to talk to me alone, and conversation has always been your specialty, so I thought it would be better to bring him to meet you." ”

The middle-aged man looked at Huey and smiled, "Hello, my name is Clementine Hordine Barnett, I'm Brian Buckler's secretary, and I'm the only one in this town who wears this costume without being attacked by the crowd." I've heard your name a lot during this time, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Hue Igler, the Imperial wanted man who killed the Ablit Division, and in fact I already know what happened just now. The way you killed Inigo was beautiful. ”

Clementine Hording Barnett, the name Huey felt familiar. He thought hard for a while before he said softly: "That crazy Hotin who pretended to be the minister of the Reims Empire, defrauded hundreds of nobles, and swept away hundreds of thousands of Jinwit?"

A smug smile spread across the middle-aged man's face: "Actually, it was indeed one of the most proud masterpieces of my life, but only one of them. ”

"People say you're dead. ”

"Good people don't live long, but disasters last for a thousand years. Hodding replied.

As he spoke, Hodding pointed to the old man beside him: "This is Eagle Ashlin, you must have heard his name, just as we have heard of you." ”

"That prison escape expert, the undead master who escaped from the Imperial Felon** four times? Huey was amazed. The old man in front of him, like Hodding and Buckler, was also a well-known wanted criminal in the Reims Empire.

As for his crime, the study of the undead itself is a capital crime, and no more charges are needed.

Out of fear of the forbidden arts, few people are willing to walk with the undead*. People have the impression that they are always lifeless, looking at you as if they were looking at a dead body.

But in fact, the Necromancer* is not so terrifying, on the contrary, just think about the eternal life they can give to the deceased, one can imagine that their Necromancer* has a very good understanding of life. It's just that because the undead have been in the company of the dead for a long time, they are always shrouded in a mysterious aura. And the Church of the Holy Spirit even declared the undead to be a taboo* technique on the grounds of blasphemy against the dead.

And it is said that the undead * master himself is the closest person to alchemy, and almost every undead * master knows some alchemy, as for why, it is not something that outsiders can understand.

The old man smiled at Xiuyi: "It's not as good as you, young man, I'm now beginning to understand what it means to be terrible." At least I didn't kill someone like Ablit. ”

"It's hard to imagine that the town of Robinia is home to almost all of the troublesome criminals of the Lance Empire. Xiui also laughed.

"Now there's another Hui Glare. Hotin smiled, he left the desk, went to the wine cabinet and opened the wine cabinet: "What to drink?"

"Heavenly. Huey replied.

"And what about you, Brian?" asked Haddin again.

"Give me a cup of strength. Brian Buckler said as he sat down in a corner and looked at Huey with cold eyes.

"You're younger and better than I thought you were. Hotin poured a cup of Celestial and sent it to Huey.

"Thank you. Xiu Yi said politely, but he didn't know if he was thanking the glass of wine or the other party's praise for him.

"Reeler: They're a pack of wolves. We all know that it is not difficult to kill a wolf, it is rare to turn a wolf into a sheep. And you did just that. Haddin raised his glass to Huey.

Taking a sip of the wine, Huey replied, "Actually, I didn't turn them into sheep, they just put on a sheep's skin, and in their bones, they are still a bunch of robbers. ”

"That's not easy. Hawking put down his glass: "Well, although I don't know why you're suddenly here, I don't think it will stop me from guessing what you mean." I think that since you have become the new leader of Leiler, and you have made them ** into noble gentlemen, then if I guessed correctly, you should have a plan. And this plan can't be accomplished by you alone, which is why you brought them here. You showed your strength with Rele and Inigo, strength in both ways...... Your personal strength and your ability to lead. It has to be said that it was a nice display and managed to get our attention, so what do you want? Or what can you bring to us?"

"Your wisdom is beyond my imagination, Mr. Barnett. You deserve to be the greatest liar in this country. ”

"Call me Hordin, thank you for the compliment, quickly see through a person's intentions, see what he needs, that is the basic skill of every liar. ”

"No wonder you have done such a great act as defrauding hundreds of nobles at once, and I believe that if there were a textbook on fraud in this world, then the case you did would definitely become a classic example. ”

"Thank you for the affirmation, that's something I'm really proud of. ”

"Can you tell me how you did that? Oh, don't get me wrong, in fact I'm also very interested in deception, which I have always thought was one of the best techniques in the world. ”

"I can tell you that you have a lot of experience in this area. ”

Target. Huey does not deny this: "In the world I once lived in, lies were the basis of my existence. But in fact, the lies I have used can only be described as naïve compared to you. Most of the time I succeed because the people I cheat on are greedy. ”

"Then you are on the right path. Hording immediately replied: "Choosing a good target for deception is a very important prerequisite. The next thing you have to do is find out what they need and what they need. ”

"But many times we may have to cheat some opponents who are more difficult to deceiver, and the purpose is not necessarily money, but something else. ”

"Like who?"

"For example, the *Commissariat, for example, a safe escape. ”

"Hmm. Hodding pondered, "Looks like that's the trouble you're facing." If I'm guessing correctly, you're not going to live in the mountains for a long time, like us. ”

"Yes. ”

"* The people of the Political Department are a group of shrewd hounds, and it is a great challenge to deceive the hounds. ”

"Maybe you can give me some advice...... In fact, that's one of the purposes for which I've come to you. I am truly blessed to have met you, Mr. Hotting. ”

"So...... Maybe I can give you some experience. ”
