black wizard Zhu Peng

At this time, the cabinet minister of finance, the big fat man Norsean, finally ran over with a "wheeze, wheeze" and watched his favorite young son being beaten with blood all over his head and face. in front of oneself.

No matter how old Norcian was as a politician, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

"What are you doing? A group of country rich lords came to serve in the royal capital under the favor of the royal family. How dare you commit such a crime? Don't say it's you, a little girl, even your brother Rod Custer is in front of me. Don't dare to be so rude, such an uneducated little bastard..."

"What do you say I don't dare?" Just as the big fat man Norsean was hugging his blood-stained son and hissing, Zhu Peng pushed away the people around him and came out.

If it was Qiuyue Shirley who made trouble for no reason, and really beat her with her temper, Zhu Peng would never let her go.

That's why he restrained himself and listened around for a while, but the matter was obviously not Shirley's fault. These aristocratic bad boys relied on potions to find excitement, from maids by their side to commoners, famous prostitutes, and now they dared to treat noble families. Let's start, I don't know how many reluctant girls have been harmed in this gradual process.

Norcian's youngest son is being beaten quite badly now... However, those girls who he succeeded in capturing are just slutty by nature. If they are more conservative and steadfast, will they ruin their lives?

"I didn't have time to participate in this matter for the first time, otherwise you would know that Rod Custer is more rude than his sister." With a shake of his hand, the exaggerated and terrifying enhanced pistol "Jackal" fell into his palm.In front of Norsean, Zhu Peng shot his youngest son's lower body with a single shot.

There was a bang, blood splashed everywhere, the jackal looked like a gun, but it was actually a hand cannon.

The noble boy who was knocked unconscious by Qiuyue Shirley had his lower body exploded. At this moment, he woke up in severe pain. When he looked at his lower body, he immediately let out a horrible roar, rolled around, and smeared all over the floor. of plasma.

No one from Norsien to all the nobles around him expected that Zhu Peng's reaction would be so fierce. After all, his sister had the upper hand from the beginning to the end and did not suffer any losses.

And the Sean family of Norcian has long controlled the financial power of the Principality of Saint Rudin. Not to mention the richness of the country, he has countless allies and direct descendants in the political arena.

However, it is wrong to apply Zhu Peng's purely politician's thinking.

During most of Zhu Peng's life and the process of laying the foundation, what he has always received is the spirit of being a chivalrous man taught by "Pure Yang Swordsman" Zhang Yuanfang: holding a green steel sword in his hand and wearing a golden cloak.Get out of the sword, kill people in the world of mortals.It's been ten years of sharpening a sword, but Frost Edge has never tried it.Show the king today, who has any injustice?

The frenzied chivalrous spirit and the cold and rational mind of a wizard coexist in Zhu Peng's mind. Fortunately, he is a Taoist who is inclusive and balanced, otherwise he would have been schizophrenic and turned into a complete schizophrenia. Crazy.

Regardless of the retreating nobles and the trembling soldiers approaching, Zhu Peng took two steps forward and directly pushed the jackal in his hand into the mouth of the big fat nobleman Norcian.

"Cabinet Finance Minister, you're awesome... Do you think I dare to kill you with a single shot? Your son bullies girls by drugging, and it's already gone down to the point where everyone around knows it. How dare you tell me you don't know anything about it?" I don’t know?” Norsien, who was already rolling his eyes while holding the gun against his mouth, stepped back step by step, and finally Norsien bumped into the wall, unable to retreat any more.

"You haven't answered my question yet? Do you think I dare to kill you with a single shot?" Chu Peng leaned to the big fat man's mouth with a light smile, and Zhu Peng listened attentively, but the other party was so useless that he couldn't make out any words. It's beyond words.

"Rod, you can't really kill him. If you really kill him, you won't be able to get rid of it." At this time, Zhu Peng's nominal direct supervisor, Egula Hessing, got the letter from nowhere and turned back. At the banquet, she squeezed out of the crowd in a white windbreaker, and shouted at Zhu Peng.

However, at this time Zhu Peng didn't bother to talk to her at all, and the "destiny mission" that hadn't appeared for a long time began to frantically jump on Norcian's head. Who knows how many people's fates his youngest son directly or indirectly destroyed. Or this Norcian itself was an important node in the fate of many people.

In short, at the moment when Zhu Peng came into close contact with him, the fate card in the depths of the sea of ​​consciousness was pulled, and finally a precious fate mission was activated as the situation changed.

At this time, Egula Hessing had already pulled out her gun, but instead of aiming at Zhu Peng, she pointed the muzzle at the head of the Cabinet Minister of Finance, Norsean.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Three gunshots sounded almost at the same time, and the fat head of the cabinet minister of finance, Norsean, was directly blasted into pieces.

In addition to the light smoke coming from the muzzles of the guns in the hands of Zhu Peng and Egula Hessing, the eldest prince Lokov, who was being hugged by the youngest son of Norcian, also held a delicate scarlet gun in his hand. firearms.

Seeing the eldest prince Lokov shooting, all the nobles around were in an uproar. Lokov has always been known for his martial arts and combativeness, and he very much rejects modern weapons and equipment. He believes that it is these equipment that made the once famous The St. Rudin cavalry of the nations lost their former prowess.

His thoughts and positions are actually strongly supported by many old-school soldiers in the army. In the eyes of old-school soldiers, no matter what time it is, no matter how technology develops, wars are still fought by humans after all. Forgetting to exercise and strengthen oneself is putting the cart before the horse.

If it is on the earth, their thinking is of course outdated and conservative to hinder the progress of military power, but on the middle and high demon planes, even if this kind of thinking is not correct, it is definitely not wrong.

The Grand Prince Lokov of the Duchy of Saint Rudin competed for the throne with his mother's favorite second prince, and gained countless support because he took a clear-cut stand on the old-school soldier's side, but now his shot at Norcian directly A deep gap was created between himself and the old-school soldiers.

At the banquet, among the nobles, everyone was stunned by Lokov's shot, especially the youngest son of Norcian, who was hugging Lokov's thigh. The scarlet gun in his hand moved down, and then stuffed it into his mouth.

"Bang!" Plasma and brain white scattered, and the corpse fell down amidst the screams of the surrounding women.

The death of old Norcian just now was far away after all, but now this death is close at hand.

"The Sean family treasoned the country, colluded with the Night Clan, accepted bribes, smuggled arms..." It was almost a random accusation that was thrown at the Sean family.

But is it really nothing?

Making friends with foreign aristocrats and leaving a way out for the family is something that almost all big aristocrats will do, but in essence, it is treason, especially since the Sean family still controls the country's financial power.

Colluding with the Night Clan, the indulgent and willful life style of vampires, long lifespan and powerful strength are almost all greedy and longing for nobles. It is not uncommon for the top nobles in the Duke of Saint Rudin to have nothing to do with the Night Clan, but Very few, and none of them included the Sean family.

As for accepting bribes and smuggling armaments, these are almost common crimes in the aristocratic circles. Of course, they are usually innocuous, but in a centralized society, when you fall, all of these are after you die, and then [-] feet will be set on you The rock-solid evidence.

Tonight, this grand banquet to introduce the Custer family to the upper class, because of the blood and death, all the nobles present were deeply impressed and unforgettable.

Chapter 31 Outsiders

The overthrow of the Sean family, under the joint suppression of the royal family and the government cabinet, has minimized the negative impact. Baron Rod Custer, the head of the legion, is one reason, but the bigger reason is:

World wars, the national treasury is empty, and the Sean family has been in business for many generations, and the wealth is incomparable to the country.

Moreover, the reputation of this family is very bad.

The ransacking and extermination of the Xien family can greatly alleviate the financial crisis of the Principality of Saint Rudin, and it will not cause a political backlash that everyone is in danger of.

For the next half month, all the major newspapers across the country reported the various crimes of the Xien family, using political power to try their best to turn them into treacherous villains, and they will be nailed to the pillar of shame in the history of the country forever.

But even under such circumstances, the eldest son of this family still managed to abscond abroad. In the process of pursuing him, the surrounding nobles and financial groups close to the Sean family were also punished. The strength of the country suddenly wilted by a third.

"In times of peace and prosperity, of course consortium businessmen are needed to prosper the economy and revitalize the country, but in this time of shortage of soldiers and food, wealth and power need to be further concentrated, so that we can have stronger combat power to invest in the frontline battlefield "Slapping the thick stack of newspapers on the table, Egula Hessing said to the man sitting in front of her.

"Your original marquis and title have been temporarily put on hold by the higher-ups. Don't you think it's a pity to lose the honor you got after a bloody battle for a pair of Norcien and his son who will be slaughtered sooner or later?"

(I really don't have that kind of feeling... I don't plan to live with you for hundreds of years.)

Three shots were fired at the same time that night, but in the end it was Zhu Peng, who was the closest and most powerful, who blasted Norcien's fat head with a jackal, gaining a lot of power of destiny.

For this alone, this wave is very worthwhile for him.

"Has the situation on the frontlines become so tense? Because of this case, dozens of big chaebols have been killed and punished one after another. It is already very ugly for the royal family to eat like this. The consortium is destroyed and a large number of workers are gone. There will be less and less work and various living materials, and the living standards of the people will decline, step by step... a chain reaction."

"Poor countries are more fearless of fighting to the death. Only in a turbulent social environment can it be easier to recruit soldiers and transfer a large number of skilled workers to national factories that produce war supplies with a small salary... You are right, the front line is routed, but It's not that the Western Demon Alliance won, but that there are... insects popping up all over the continent." As he spoke, Egula Hessing opened the drawer, took out a cowhide folder and handed it to Zhu Peng .

He reached out to take it and opened it, and took out a large stack of documents of defeat and requests for military support, as well as a few black and white military photos:

It is indeed an insect-man, half-human, half-insect, or the head of an insect with a human body, a strange existence with both human and insect life characteristics.One of the most eye-catching photos is a female bugman covered with an exoskeleton bug armor. She stands in the turbulent bug swarm around her, waving a purple-black foot spur like a war spear, calling for all kinds of bugs around her to attack. The worms and beasts charged a human army.

"Wonderful unknown races emerged from the ground. Most of them are giant alienated insects without intelligence, but a small number of insects in human form are high-ranking nobles, or the brains of this race. In St. Not too many people came out of the Principality of Rudin. The pirate country Saiga next to it was swallowed up by the swarm of bugs that came out of the ground. The most disgusting thing is that this race still has the ability to 'assimilate'. After being parasitized by the Zerg, there is no abnormal change in appearance and behavior at all, so that there is no sign of rebellion, and it is difficult to prevent." When she said this, the silver-haired countess paused, and then she continued to speak to Zhu Peng :

"The Nuoka town where you lived temporarily also had a genus of insects from the depths of the mine, but the number was very small, and the power you stayed there before you left was also very strong, and it was forced to suppress it. It was all the insects. One of the few places where people were present was not a place where mass murder took place."

"...Because of mining, I did exert some influence on that place, but I didn't know at the time that it would affect the arrival of the Zergs. There were demon ghoul legions from the Western Three Kingdoms on the front line, and now the underground Zergs suddenly appeared. Family, it’s no wonder that the royal family has to adjust the country to a state of war.” People on this continent have no concept of alien invasion, they can only forcefully explain the appearance of insects as underground life forms in this world .

But they don't know that this concept of unity of one mind affects the original will of the whole world, and on the contrary reduces the repelling effect on intruders.

For the National Royal Knights, headed by the head of the legion, Egula Hessing, and even the leader of the ruling group, Rod Custer, it is faintly the last private army of the royal family, and it also has a huge role in defending the royal capital. The main task is to deal with the undead creatures headed by the night clan. Existences like wraiths and ghouls also belong to the scope of the knight order, and now they have to be invaded by parasites.

In general, the salary has not increased, but the workload has increased.

……

The academy war that was originally planned for ten years was messed up by the alien invasion of the buggers who crashed in. Now the whole black castle is still shrouded in a strange white mist. Walk into the mist without looking back, and die.

This is the case from the lowest level of apprentices to a certain prestigious legendary great wizard, but it is very normal to think about it, it is a feast specially prepared by Tongtian Wu Tower for the fourth-order existence.

The bloody trial will obviously not be interrupted by the invasion of the alien plane, so now the wizards of the Santiago continent will have to deal with the relatively unfamiliar environment and the invasion of a fourth-order high civilization without support. There are many, but the Western Continent is a double outbreak area of ​​demonic wars and insect plagues. Gradually, wizards began to migrate to the relatively stable Eastern Continent.

If it was a peaceful age, these lonely and mysterious spellcasters would choose to live alone, or lead a few followers to retreat to the mountains and forests, because resources in a certain area are limited, and wizards, especially black wizards, do not like to gather together.

But in today's continental environment where wars are raging, gunpowder is filling the air, poisonous gas is covering the sun, and artillery fire is tearing the clouds, they will instead choose the metropolises of various countries.

Because as long as there are enough humans around to cover themselves, wizards have a much higher chance of survival than ordinary humans, whether they are facing war or alien plagues.

The Principality of Saint Rudin is not considered a weak country in the Eastern Continent, especially in recent years because of the reorganization of the regime due to wars, the central power is highly concentrated, and the king's capital, Revel, is guarded by five ace mechanics, which is a threat in a general sense military power that can be dealt with.

So many wizards drilled here... and were named one by one by the National Royal Knights.

After several rounds of political battles during this period, although he was considered an outsider, Zhu Peng still watched Saint Rudin's political arena. You sing, we sing.

However, just looking at the current political situation, the one who laughs the last and the most calmly is actually the elderly Queen. She gradually reorganized and seized the power she had lost, and then used her lofty prestige and sophisticated political skills He ruled the whole country, fought against the Western coalition forces, suppressed the spread of insect plagues, and even swept the rebel rebellion with iron and blood.

The brain power and vitality represented behind the series of decrees made Zhu Peng secretly frown on the outside... It may be because of the relationship with Egula Hessing, the old queen had an unusually high trust in herself, and with this level of trust Heavy, Zhu Peng even obtained the authority to mobilize an ace mechanic.

This troop does not belong to the National Royal Knights, nor does it belong to Rod Custer, but Zhu Peng has two signed empty transfer orders. The army was drawn into the city.

The modernized mechanical troops are actually infantry-tank coordinated combat troops. This kind of mortal army is said to be useful, but it is difficult to step into the legendary rank of the strong under the premise of insufficient conditions.

But it is useless, the legendary strong man claims to be one man against one army, but he never said that he will definitely win.If you insist on giving an example, there are not a few legends about being surrounded and beaten to death by mortal armies for some reason.

……

At noon one day, the Royal Library of the Principality of Saint Rudin.

Going in and out of the royal library at will and even reading the forbidden books in the secret room is one of the conditions Zhu Peng agreed to come to Revel. The royal ancestor of the Principality of Saint Rudin was a wizard. In fact, this is also the origin of most royal families in this continent. , blood descendants without spiritual power or even cultivation talent, were abandoned by wizards on this continent, because of privileges and a little power given by their ancestors, they either became royals or became great nobles.

Therefore, in the forbidden bookcase in the secret room of the Royal Library, there are actually a lot of theses and classics that can only be read at Blacksburg College after paying a high price. Although some of them are incomplete, and some of them even have fallacies, they are still enough to enrich the knowledge reserve .

Today was very lucky, the phone next to the desk did not ring, which meant that there was nothing urgent.

At dusk, when Zhu Peng finished copying the last stroke, he closed the thick black-shelled tome on the table, and then he walked out with the witchcraft note in his arms.

During the process, he saw a slender young man in Chinese robes leaning on a stone pillar and reading a biography novel of knights. Limited by his current status, Zhu Peng couldn't just pretend he didn't see it and just pass by.

He came in front of the second prince, intending to say hello and leave, but the handsome young man in Huapao really immersed himself in the books and words in his hands. After Zhu Peng stood beside him for nearly 2 minutes, With a slight cough, he suddenly woke up and reacted.

"If you don't leave, this place will be closed. The management here is a very strict and obese old lady. It is said that she has friendship with Her Majesty Queen. I don't think we need to touch her bad luck."

"Uh...Of course, thank you Viscount Custer for your reminder." Because of the headshot incident at the banquet, Zhu Peng's original Marquis and territory were all cut off, his title was reduced to Viscount, and his territory was even lost.

However, there is probably none of the nobles in this continent who can manage their own territory with peace of mind.

Zhu Peng and the second prince Jieer walked out of the Royal Library together. As they walked side by side, Jieer suddenly said, "Viscount Custer, do you believe it? I never thought of competing with my elder brother for the throne... ...although I say this, and you may find me very hypocritical."

"...No, I believe what you say." At this point, Jieer beside Zhu Peng was obviously stunned for a moment, and Zhu Peng ignored him, and continued to speak as he walked out: "A person who is addicted to power , can no longer have the happiness of being completely immersed in a biographical novel of knights."

Zhu Peng said these words sincerely.

People like the eldest prince Lokov and the second prince Jieer beside him, who have not received special training, cannot successfully lie around a person like Zhu Peng, because the physiological characteristics of normal people's lying have already merged into one. The brochure was handed over to every alchemist of the Chinese Warrior Association.

After mastering these, coupled with powerful insights and perceptions, every alchemist is like a human lie detector, and ordinary people can't hide lies at all.

"You...you are willing to believe me, so can you please convey my meaning to Eldest Brother for me? I never thought of competing with Eldest Brother for the throne. In my eyes, Eldest Brother is the best candidate for the throne."

"The key to the problem is not what you think, but what the people around you think, what the nobles who support you think, and even... what the queen thinks."

"You cherish the friendship between your brothers, but His Majesty thinks that you are her best successor. The nobles behind you also see through this. They are speculating and trust His Majesty's vision. Therefore, It doesn't matter what you think, Your Highness, and I can't convey that precious goodwill to you." Smiling sideways, Zhu Peng patted the shoulder of the stunned young man beside him, and then he boarded the National Emperor's Knight Order The carriage, leave first.

Since this period of time, because the eldest prince Lokov helped him to top the tank at the banquet, many nobles naturally thought that they were on the side of the eldest prince Lokov.

However, Zhu Peng didn't care much about factional disputes in the political arena. Everyone thought that the mistress of this country would die soon, but Zhu Peng felt that if there were no accidents, this Queen might be worse than the current one. Those who are active in politics live longer and longer.

And, as an outsider, betting doesn't make sense.

At present, Zhu Peng is only using the power in his hands to make his group live more comfortably and comfortably, not because he really cares about this power.

Chapter 32 Forbidden Witchcraft, Dark Souls

Because of the invasion of the alien plane, the original human cleansing plan undoubtedly no longer needs to be started.

Even because of their positions, the wizards chose to stand with the human camp one after another, and joined forces to fight against the horrifying insectoid clan.

After this battle of civilizations, the original total population of San Diego may drop by 80.00%. At the same time, the wizarding organizations belonging to the seven schools in Black Castle will also suffer heavy casualties. Plane wars, civilization games, this intensity level It is much higher than the original bloody trial.

It is equivalent to letting junior high school and high school students in the plane of scientific and technological civilization take up guns to participate in national wars, and the heavy casualties are completely predictable.

Every inch of this continent is no longer safe.

On a certain day, a blue meteor and fire suddenly fell from the sky, and the high wall toppled where it fell, the city collapsed, and a tide of insects and beasts gushed out from the depths of the cracked earth at the same time... It is a strong saturation attack combining outer space bombing and airborne landing invasion.

The fourth-order high civilization level of the Zerg is still a small level stronger than the earth civilization in the 21st century.

Morphedis, the economic capital of the Principality of St. Rudin, was destroyed under such a strong saturation blow, and even a legendary general loyal to the royal family died in battle.

Even Zhu Peng and the others stopped their special research under such circumstances and began to prepare for the battle with all their strength. Although in various forms of communication with other wizards, they knew that the seven schools had already begun to arrange countermeasures, but All the people on our side are staying on the frontline battlefield.

Moreover, according to the usual style of the wizarding world, it is unlikely to expect the senior management of the college to take me and others back. The chances of the colleges directly issuing orders for all wizards to participate in the battle on the spot are higher.

National Royal Knights, the private office of the leader of the adjudication team.

It is completely an independent laboratory, where no one except the Qiuyue sisters is allowed to enter, surrounded by large pieces of design sketches hanging up, that is the blueprint of the man on the mountain that has just been half completed, and Zhu Peng put it on hold for the time being .

Because he finally found an idea in an ancient book in the Royal Library, and found a way to lay the foundation of spiritual strength and rebalance his increasingly sophisticated martial arts fighting spirit.

In the center of the office is a huge culture tank vessel, which contains half a tank of pale pink solution. Zhu Peng opened the door and walked in with the box, and then he opened a delicate wooden box. Inside was a blue short-haired The woman's frozen head.

"Zhu Peng, for the sake of the Evocation Department of the Hand of the Prison, please spare my life. After returning to Black Castle, Senior Sister, I will definitely give you a satisfactory thank you." The cold woman with her severed head suddenly opened her eyes, and light blue tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, begging for life repeatedly.

"Senior Wumei, if you come to the capital and come to me directly, show an equal cooperation attitude... I will definitely repay you with the highest level of courtesy." While talking, the man put on gloves for himself, he Take out the toolbox and take out a sharp scalpel.

In fact, in this situation, the craniotomy is better, but Zhu Peng has impeccable wrist strength and control, and his scalpel is also of excellent steel quality, so there is no need to bother.

"But when you sneaked into the imperial capital, you first contacted the eldest prince Lokov, and then wanted to visit the second prince Jieer. You don't treat me, a kid on earth, as a dish at all. I won't do anything to you, and you will definitely treat me in the end I did it..."

"No, Zhu Peng, listen to me, I don't think so, really...you have to trust me."
