Volume 1 Dream Treading Dust Chapter 46 The Crosshairs of Hunting Arrows
The room at the top of the tower is filled with warm spring sunlight, and the Gerry Empire presents a soft sense of prosperity.
"Jensen, you also have to understand me, this prince is also entrusted by others. Seeing that he was reluctant to speak, Locke Langdon added, "Actually...... It's been a month, and it's time for you to go back to your old ways, hired by Prince Ben as a mercenary...... It's not difficult, brother, if it's ......"
Little Sissel knew in his heart that the defeat of the country could have such a beautiful scene, and it was a huge sacrifice from the Sissel family that should not have been borne.
"Who is His Royal Highness entrusted by?" he took a few deep breaths, and the feeling of oppression that had been lingering in his chest lightened slightly.
Rock Langdon was speechless for a while, he didn't expect little Sissel to ask such a question, "This prince is naturally entrusted by his father......"
Knowing that this was a lie, Sissel still said: "Rock Langdon, you and I have grown up together since childhood, and our clan has been cared for by you for many years, and as a monarch and minister, if you have something unspeakable, you can be perfunctory, and if you are a brother, you don't need to hide what you want from me now." β
"That's best, Jensen, you and I are brothers in distress, so naturally we don't need to see outside!" Locke Langdon was overflowing with joy.
Little Sissel's expression froze.
Everyone seems to be slowly coming out of this war. But not himself.
In the first few days, as long as he thought of his parents, the great sadness in his heart could collapse instantly. Time will dilute everything, and the past will become the sunshine without any heat in front of you, but when it shines into your heart, it is cold.
The Ares Twin Blades and the Dragon's Head Longbow were created by the best craftsmen in the Sisel Empire at great expense, and the two weapons were cleverly designed and strangely looked like ordinary objects. It's just that Jensen was young at that time, and he didn't know what this maroon-red cinnabar-like material was, and when he looked at it now, he felt that the red was too eye-catching, like blood flowing from his body, solidifying and blackening on the iron.
After the death of his parents, Jensen Sissel has not received a new bounty order until today.
"Speaking of which, thousands of Imperial soldiers died in Violet, the Emperor's ...... They regard their spiritual power as superior to others, and they actually do this kind of thief deed! Their water spirit master has played a despicable sneak attack tactic, which is despicable and shameless!"
Locke Langdon's open-mouthedness made Sissel Jr. slightly displeased - the thieves were doing things, and in the end their mercenary race was "superior".
"On this trip to Violet, this prince risked his life to retrieve the scepter priest, and happened to run into the astrology patriarch Rong Mei, and fought with him for a long time, but I didn't expect it...... I'm angry when I say that!"
Little Sissel asked, "An astrological patriarch can actually stop you?"
Locke Langdon said helplessly: "Don't underestimate him, I think his spiritual skills are much more domineering than other astrologers, and he has a bit of the spy appearance of the former patriarch." Why is it that their water empire is sluggish on weekdays, and when it comes to fighting, they hide killing tricks one by one, and they seem to be fighting like chickens. β
"Do you know his psionic powers and weapons?"
"I don't know anything...... But he alone can't compete with me......"
Little Sissel frowned and asked, "In that case, who is the 'Yu' on the bounty order?" I have never heard of this woman before. β
"Don't mention it! I'm going to be hurt by this woman!" Locke Langdon scolded, slammed his fist on the table, and said viciously, "Don't look at the little girl's young film, she is the new Patriarch of the Spirit Clan of Violet, and she has a lot of secrets hidden on her." β
Seeing that he did not sign the reward order, and even the target of the hunt was roughly mentioned, Little Sissel asked nervously: "Did you go on this trip to reveal your intention to find the patriarch of the Spirit Clan?"
"Of course not! Prince Ben saw that she was handsome, and after a few words, he asked for her identity. The descendants of the Imperial Patriarch are really strong in spirit, and the previous spies didn't find out that the Violet Empire was hiding such a woman......"
"Since it's hidden, of course it won't be easy for our spies to know. How can you be sure that what she says is true?" Little Sissel's expression was full of doubt, "Violet's spirit people are scheming, in case the emperor is playing some tricks and deliberately finding a woman to be a scapegoat......"
"Jensen, would you like to be a little more sober? You are the great general of the Great Gerry Empire. Locke Langdon was a little emotional, "Violet's Spirit Clan Patriarch Huang Yan has long since died, and his heir, Yu Yan, has been identified by Prince Ben, why can't you accept this reality?"
Little Sissel's heart suddenly fainted with a trace of bitterness: "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, it's me who lost my temper." β
"I don't want to hear you apologize. Rock Langdon sat down and patted little Sissel on the shoulder, "You are unique. No one will compare you to General Karen, and no one will demand that you have done great things for the Empire after the end of the war! The most important thing now is that you waste time while you need to do things freely!"
He knows, he understands everything. He never wanted to be ridiculed as the cowardly son of the god of war couple.
Little Sissel struggled to suppress the sadness that was about to come out of his chest, and said in a deep voice, "Please tell me more about the Feather Chief. β
"You're finally a bit of the way you used to be. Locke Langdon nodded, touched his chin and thought: "If it is an ordinary patriarch, even if it is a descendant of the Emperor, you don't have to worry about it, but this girl has done a few tricks with me, not only does she manipulate the water element, but she even knows how to use wind spirit arts, and her power is no worse than those high-level wind spirit masters!"
"I've fought against elite troops before, and high-level Wind Spirit Divisions don't have to be feared. Little Sissel waved his hand disdainfully, "Is Featherfish's mother a Wind Nation Spiritualist?"
"No, the emperor is married to the emperor's daughter, the sister of the current king. β
Little Sissel's pupils trembled: "How is that possible? How can a pure-blooded psychic master control two elements at the same time?"
Locke Langdon was furious: "So she is very weird! You should know in your heart the level of this prince's spiritual power, even if it is low, you can fight back and forth with the patriarch of the clan! I fought with this girl, and I actually let her have the upper hand everywhere, her tricks are too vicious, and I have no room to fight back......"
"You also fought with the Rongmei Patriarch before, and you fought against one, and it was normal for you to feel that it was difficult to struggle. β
Locke Langdon shook his head and continued, "There are only you and I here, and I am not afraid to be ashamed to say it, this prince...... She let her go. Not only did she speak disrespectfully to the Scepter Priest, but she even took this opportunity to manipulate the flame elemental to humiliate Prince Ben and the Gerry Empire!"
The prince continued, "I've only heard of the existence of 'elementless attributes' on this continent, and I've never heard of anyone who can use four elements at the same time......
"The Descendant of the Emperor can easily control the four elements, which is the level she should achieve. But being the patriarch of the Spirit Clan is not qualified enough. Sissel Jr. was obviously much calmer than Rock Langdon, and smiled a little smugly, "One or more elements are just more fancy tricks in front of me, and they can't win me." β
Locke Langdon glanced at Little Sissel and was silent.
"Why don't you speak?" Little Sissel noticed Locke's strangeness, "What is her weapon, can you see clearly?"
"Sword of Soul Gathering. β
Little Sissel's face turned pale when he heard this, and the pride he had just now was gone.
His eyes swept back and forth on Locke Langdon's face a few times, and Zhengse asked, "Don't be kidding, Prince Locke, an ancient weapon of such strength as the Sword of Gathering Souls has always been used by the patriarch of their country's illusion clan before, how can it be in her hands now?"
"The ins and outs of it, this prince does not know. Locke Langdon sighed, revealing a hint of helplessness, "I've truly seen the power of the Soul Gathering Sword. β
"I can't imagine that this Spirit Clan patriarch can hide for so long......"
"Although Prince Ben can't give him the same high bounty as three years ago, Jensen, rumors are flying outside, you ...... You will never be willing to be ridiculed as a coward, will you? I don't mean to force you, but General Karen must want to see you revitalize your family business and make a name for yourself for the Sissel family. β
Little Sissel froze in place and said coldly, "You've really caused me a big problem." β
Locke Langdon deliberately let out a long sigh and said, "If you don't take it, Prince Ben won't blame you." β
"Nonsense, our mercenary clan has uncovered the bounty order, how can there be any reason to regret it and then post it back?" Little Sissel hesitated for a long time, and gently held his forehead with his hand, "I didn't mean to say something discouraged, but we need to discuss in advance what to do after losing the battle." β
Locke Langdon's face turned pale when he heard this: "The glory of the Sissel family is in your hands, Jensen, don't you want to take revenge?"
"Just because you want to get revenge, but that doesn't mean you won't lose. β
"With the strength of your parents and parents, it is more than enough to kill the Emperor, not to mention you who are proficient in assassination and hold the double blade of the God of War. Which soldier on our main battlefield didn't know that he was the strongest spiritual magician, the so-called invincible strongest spiritual magician, who died tragically under the fire of karma, and his bones were gone?"
"What do you mean......"
"Why are you so pessimistic? Defeating a woman with the sword of gathering souls in her hand and using her strength to break those gossips is a lucrative business. β
"That's not what you counted, Rock Langdon. Little Sissel's tone was a little helpless, "Take 10,000 steps back and speak...... I don't kill women, this is our cooperation, and you will cut the last knife. β
"WhewβI've known you for so long to know you're so principled, Jensen Sissel. β
"Your Highness, let's think about what to do after the defeat. β
"The outcome between the fathers has been decided, will you lose to a little girl?" Locke Langdon's eyes flickered, "Besides, even the Melting Charm Patriarch is still ...... experience."
Little Sissel caught the subtle emotions of the other party, and the cold light like the tip of a knife flashed in his eyes: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you want to take this opportunity to find some valuable clues in them?"
Locke Langdon was noncommittal: "Of course, this prince absolutely does not believe that such a coincidence can happen in this world! It is just that the woman does not understand anything, especially the dissolute charm, whose purpose in finding the priest of the scepter must be the same as mine......"
"I see, the Patriarch of Rongmei is actually also interested in 'Zhen Shidu'. Little Sissel shook the bounty order in his hand, carefully counted the money, and said, "I see that your intentions are also very clear, this woman's life is not worth so much money." If you want me to help you find Zhen Shidu, this bounty order is not sincere enough. β
"You haven't changed anything for so many years, and bargaining is worse than killing. Rock Langdon was quite aware of Jensen Sissel's temperament, and spoke without minus, "Say, how much?"
A wicked smile appeared on the corner of Little Sissel's mouth: "It's a matter of decided, at least, add another zero, right?"
Locke Langdon nodded, and before leaving the door, he dropped a sentence: "Okay, no problem." Janssen Sissel, this is your time. If you have decided when to depart, come to the king's capital to find me. β
