Volume 5 Echoes from the Sky Chapter 14 Red Fire

A figure came out of the crowd and said coldly: "What are you looking for me?" About thirty years old, but looking at the respect that everyone has for him, he knows that this person is not simple.

Arthur smiled slightly, threw the boy out in his hand and said, "I want to talk to you!" Since you dare to appear, it will at least prove that it is not an official person from Saint Ålan, otherwise you will avoid it and make things high.

If it's from the people, then let's talk about it.

Chihuo caught the boy lightly, and the boy saw that Chihuo's eyes were red, and just as he wanted to say something, Chihuo patted his head, and the boy obediently stepped aside. "You go, I have nothing to talk to the Germans. ”

"Brother Chihuo killed him" "Kill him!" The hostage was released, and the crowd underground was excited, Chihuo didn't say anything but raised his hand, and the crowd quieted down.

Arthur smiled, "You don't want to kill me?" Red Fire stared at him coldly but didn't answer, it was the gaze of the invader.

Arthur continued: "You killed me today, there are probably not many people here who will survive! That's why you don't dare to kill me, but have you ever thought about it, sooner or later, there will be a fight to the death, can you still make such a decision at that time?"

Red Fire also groaned for a while, he could see that Arthur's rank was not low, and it was one thing to attack the German army. If you kill a high-ranking German officer, I am afraid that you will immediately slaughter the village in retaliation. That's why he chose to let Arthur go, and of course, Arthur's failure to kill people is also one of the reasons.

A pale yellow light suddenly rose in Arthur's hand, and Arthur looked at the rising fighting spirit in his hand and said, "I'm sure I'll kill everyone here." ”

Chihuo glared at him without showing weakness and said, "You can try!"

Arthur dissipated his fighting spirit and said, "But I think it's better for us to talk!"

Chihuo thought for a moment and said, "Then you can say it here." There's nothing you can't say in front of my brother. The bustling crowd immediately let out some cheers.

"I want to ask you. Who are you fighting for now?" Arthur asked loudly.

Chihuo said as a matter of course: "Of course it is for my country!"

Arthur frowned and said, "For the sake of that old land who can't do mediocre kings." ”

Fire said proudly: "For St. Ålan." For the glory of the Golden Lion. People like you don't understand. ”

Arthur thought for a moment and said, "But you don't seem qualified to fight for St. Åran, there is nothing for you here, the land of the nobility, the traditions of the nobility, the glory of the nobility." You are nothing more than a lamb that provides resources for their extravagant life. ”

Chihuo was stunned for a moment, and he was a little unable to argue, but he reacted smartly, and immediately retorted: "What are you fighting for?"

Arthur said: "For money, for power, for power." If you have money, your family will not have to eat black bread, if you have power, no one will step on your head, and with power, fate will favor you. ”

Chihuo said disdainfully: "Sure enough, it is a German without glory." Alright, we don't have much more to say, you go!"

Arthur said earnestly: "You are fighting for these people behind you!

Chihuo said: "What's the matter?"

Arthur said, "You want them to live in peace, and not die by the sword, do you?"

"Of course!"

"Your lord has abandoned you first, and your country will trade your lives for the greatest good. If things don't change, these people around you will die, die under the interests of frivolity. ”

"We would rather die than be slaves to other people's land, and if you want us to surrender, it's impossible. Red Fire said angrily that he had seen Arthur's intentions.

"What if you don't be a slave? just live quietly as before, the rent will be lower than before, and life will be better. You can even join the German army, you know our system! As long as you can make military achievements, you can also become a nobleman and a knight. No one will discriminate against you, no one will be a slave. We even have goblins in our army. Arthur said seriously.

There was a buzz in the crowd, presumably thinking about Arthur's words, and some people shouted not to believe him, but it was clear that everyone's minds had slowly tilted. No one has a reason to fight with the regular army, everyone has wives and children.

Red Fire couldn't help but regret that he shouldn't have let Arthur say this, and he felt that his rights had begun to be weakened. But just then, a voice sounded in his ears: "If you will say yes, you will become a knight." If you can bring these people around you to join the army, it may not be long before you become a nobleman. If you don't agree, a lot of people will die here today. ”

Chihuo looked at Arthur with a smile on his face in surprise, those words were passed on to Chihuo by his spell, and no one heard them except him.

Arthur summoned the mud pill, and the mud pill's seven or eight meters tall figure was obviously very convincing, and with a bang, the circle surrounding Arthur expanded a lot. Red Fire finally lowered his head in the face of the huge earth element. At least in this era, the private forces cannot compete with the official forces

Barely fighting, there is no other end than the dead.

By the roaring campfire, Arthur sat comfortably eating barbecue, and the red fire was preoccupied on the side. Arthur patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine." ”

Red Fire raised his head, the shadow of the flame burning in his eyes, "Can I really trust you?"

Arthur smiled and said, "What's the good of killing you? It will only exacerbate the contradictions, the German military doesn't want to be slaughtered, and you don't want to be slaughtered." It's just logical that your army has sown too many seeds when they retreat to cause us a little trouble! ”

Chihuo smiled bitterly: "Is it just a sacrifice? ”

Arthur patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: "The army only pursues profit, you can try to understand the powerful." Perhaps they were heartbroken and hesitant to make this decision, but in the end they had to do so for the sake of the great Saint-Åland and the happiness of more people. At the end, Arthur laughed too.

Red Fire frowned tightly, dissatisfied with Arthur's words, but didn't know how to refute them for a moment.

It is natural for a lion to eat rabbits, because he is hungry! But if the lion talks about the great principle of ecological balance, he says that he eats rabbits for the orderly development of the whole natural world. And the rabbit felt that it was very reasonable, so he willingly let the lion eat it, and when he was eaten, he was full of a noble spirit of sacrifice. That's ridiculous.

It's just that there will never be a shortage of such rabbits! Even if the strength is weak, but the spirit is also weak, as a rabbit, you have to think about the lion, consider the problem from the lion's point of view, it seems that your own can get close to the lion, such a rabbit is not stupid and what?

Chihuo sighed and said, "You know what I'm doing?

Arthur said, "I am only true to myself, so I never betray others." ”

In the time that followed, Arthur traveled with red fire to various parts of the Kaismere region to quell the flames of war that were about to ignite. Even in the face of the seeds left behind by the border guards, Arthur resorted to assassination rather than mass killing. The German army also tried to cooperate as much as possible, and even when attacked, they restrained their behavior. Coupled with the help of Chihuo, a local resident, the riot was gradually quelled.

Chihuo's mood has also improved significantly, he has saved many people, and countless small organizations that should be exterminated have only been dispersed because of him. He said to himself that even betrayal was not without value.

And Arthur's behavior was apparently also highly concerned by the German military. In the eyes of the upper echelons, the people were a resource, an important resource for recruiting soldiers and collecting rents. Arthur would undoubtedly be rewarded for securing these resources for them.

Chihuo, on the other hand, became a heroic figure in Germany, and the upper echelons had the intention to set him up as a model in order to gather the hearts of the people. His knighthood ceremony went very smoothly, and when he got that shining pair of armor, he couldn't help but feel excited in his heart. It wasn't just a piece of armor, it was a symbol of power, glory and power.

It's something any man dreams of.

At the same time, Saint-Åland also regarded him as the greatest traitor, and offered a high bounty.

Arthur was dressed in shining silver armor and leaned aside. He was a knight with Red Fire, and twenty soldiers were knighted at this ceremony. But with Arthur and Red Fire, only seven came, and the others fell into eternal sleep. To the dead, any glory is worthless, but not to the living. Their glory will be carried on by their sons, who will put on their father's armor and step into battle, walk past their father's corpse, or fall like their father. This is the military tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation in Germany, and everyone is accustomed to it, which also means that the wheels of war will not stop, just as the human ** will never be satisfied.

Kill, conquer, that's all.

At this time, Keller came over and said to Arthur, "You are about to go to the royal capital, and it is said that the king will summon you personally!"

Arthur smiled and said, "For the sake of my identity?" Arthur knew that his identity was not a secret, and it would be strange if Caesar V, as the lord of a country, did not know!

In addition to the merits of this battle, his own participation is more of an attitude to show Bloodthorn, and even an attitude of all druids, that is, to support his war.

Arthur was also secretly surprised, although Bloodthorn was considered a druid radical organization. But this is also a far cry from the Druid's principles. Supporting the war even at the expense of tradition would inevitably mean great benefits. A big deal means a big conspiracy. It's just that he hasn't figured out what this conspiracy is. I believe that this trip to the royal capital will have a result.
