Chapter 838
Auxerre, back here again...

"At the beginning, Zhong Ye and I came here." Looking at the not too tall city wall in front of her, Lily recalled the past to her companions, "A plague broke out here once, and the source of that plague was A fragment of the God of Plague is not even a clone, and Zhong Ye and I teamed up to defeat it and successfully saved the city."

When talking about this incident, Lily couldn't help but sigh.

Even though it's only been a little over half a year, and it hasn't been half a year since they separated from Zhong Ye, she feels like a long, long time has passed.

Maybe it's because she has experienced many things in the past six months.

"Eldest sister, you like that one very much..." A mercenary said this without restraint, but the other mercenaries squeezed his shoulders hard and gave him a hard look.

From their daily contact with Lily, they could occasionally hear Lily talk about what happened between him and Zhong Ye in a very nostalgic tone, but now that Zhong Ye has returned to the East, and Lily is still in the West, Doesn't it mean that something may have happened between the two of them that they don't know about, and there may be some bad things?
"Of course I like it, Zhong Ye is such a good person, who wouldn't like it?"

As she said that, Lili remembered an incident half a year ago, and smiled: "Speaking of which, Zhong Ye is tall and handsome, with a strong body, good personality, and kind, everyone will like him, right? ?

"When I was adventuring with him, I saw many people woo him, not only women, but also men!"

"Huh? Elder sister, can you tell me in detail?" Upon hearing this, everyone became interested.

"Actually nothing..."

Seeing the excited expressions of the mercenaries, Lily pursed her lips and sighed: "Well, since you want to know so much, I'll tell you—the one who impressed me the most was a nobleman. I happened to pass by his territory and was discovered by his subordinates. The nobleman took all men and women, and because we were adventurers, he wanted to pay me to stay with him for a night.

"At that time, Zhong Ye wasn't angry. On the contrary, he became suspicious. After all, although the nobles are good at playing, there are still a few people who are as special as that noble. So that time, he pretended to agree and went to the noble's house. After some investigation, I quickly got the answer, that nobleman is indeed a believer of the Lord of Pleasure.

"What happened later was also very simple. We cut down that nobleman directly, and none of their family could escape, and they all died—because their family is a believer in the Lord of Pleasure."

"Murder!!!"

At the moment when Lily finished telling the story, a shrill scream sounded suddenly, and the mercenaries immediately held down their weapons and looked around vigilantly.

Their eyes reached the end at the end of the street, and they saw a man covered in dirt riding on a man in luxurious clothes, angrily stabbing down with a knife in his hand, once and again...

"Hiss!" Even the well-informed mercenary couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle, and gasped.

How much resentment does this have to do such a thing?
Lily frowned, but did not go to stop the man covered in dirt. What she had seen and heard along the way from Venice to Auxerre had quietly changed her perception of the group of "rich people". Many things are rich people. They tend to act recklessly with the idea of ​​'they are right'.

So it is undeniable that now Lily is full of disgust for the group of 'rich people' - they are the same as the nobles.

Although Lily is a great nobleman herself, she has never looked down on the group of 'nobles', even though many nobles now got fiefdoms because they fought against the abyss.

Long-term comfort and enjoyment have made them lose the motivation to move forward, and turned to the infinite pursuit of desires. This is a landmine deeply hidden in human society, and it will be detonated sooner or later...even now!
What appeared to be a squire pulled a group of gangsters towards him, who swooped viciously and knocked the grimy man to the ground, sending him tumbling into the muddy water.

The man covered in dirt struggled hard, but he was no match for the strong and strong gang members, who were soon beaten to death.

A group of gang members dragged away the man covered in dirt, and took the richly dressed body with him.

"Follow up..." Lily whispered to the mercenaries.

The mercenaries nodded inaudibly, leaving one person to guard the luggage, and followed with only a one-handed sword and dagger.

The body of the rich man was taken away by his attendants, and the group of gangsters dragged the man who was beaten up by them along the street to be identified. It didn't take long before they asked where the man's home was.

During the period, another group of soldiers passed by the group of gangsters. The soldier captain warned the gangsters, but did not do anything to them.

"It sucks..." a mercenary muttered next to Lily.

Without changing her expression, Lily led a few mercenaries past the group of soldiers.

"Hey, you..."

bass!
The mercenaries pulled part of their weapons out of their sheaths, and Lily looked indifferently, "Is there something wrong?"

The soldier captain held down the soldier who just spoke, looked at the mercenaries in front of him solemnly, and shook his head, "It's nothing, I just want to warn you, don't make trouble at will!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he left with his soldiers, and he didn't even hear the sneer from behind him.

Following the group of gangsters, Lili and the others came to the slums. Seeing the group of guys dragging the man covered in dirt to the door of a house, Lili winked at her companions and walked over quickly.

boom!
A gang member kicked at the door, which fell to the ground.

His companions filed in and, after two screams, dragged the two men out of the house.

Before he had time to be proud, a figure flew over from the side.

Lily kicked a gang member away with a flying kick, and then her companion rushed over, knocking down all the gang members with three punches and two kicks.

"Who are you? Mercenaries?" The gang members who were knocked down shouted in panic, "We belong to Raul's gang, how dare you beat us!"

A mercenary drew out his long sword impatiently and pointed at the gang member's nose, "So? Do you want to take revenge on us?"

Among the mercenaries, there are only a few who have a good temper, and most of the mercenaries have a bad temper.

Lily ignored the communication between the mercenary and the gang members, but squatted next to the man covered in dirt, his wife and daughter, and asked, "Can you tell me why you wanted to kill that man?"

The man trembled and opened his eyes weakly, while his wife and daughter looked at him in horror.

"He... took my land with a loan and pulled me into his factory, but... he kicked me out again..."

As he spoke, the man couldn't hold it back anymore, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"I have no money, I have nothing, I can't even buy food, I am dying, we are all going to die..."

Hearing this, Lily fell into silence.

Why is this happening?Why did the situation become like this?

"……Come with me!"

After pondering for a moment, Lily stretched out her hand to the three of them.

The mercenaries looked back in surprise. At this moment, they seemed to see a figure they had never seen overlapping with Lily's figure.

"If you continue to stay here, as long as we leave, those people will continue to take revenge on you. If you leave with us, you may still have a chance." When Lily said this, her expression was extremely serious and dignified.

"So, stand up and come with us!"

Suddenly, someone suddenly realized.

——Isn't that what the person Lily often mentioned to them would do?

They remembered very clearly that in Lili's words, Zhong Ye was a kind and warm-hearted good person, and he would not stand by and watch the suffering happen wherever he could see it.

Because of longing, did you become more and more like that person?
