Mercenaries and Adventurers

Kiel hurriedly put on his clothes, but he only wore loose linen clothes, not the inner armor of the iron armor. He just found a rope to tie up the same loose trousers, and crawled out barefoot. tent.

"Keep an eye on the tent."

Keir turned around and confessed, but he said it was for two spiritual weapons.

The two-handed ax dangled from the hook on the tent pole, indicating that he knew. As for Longsword Hunting, he rubbed the scabbard with his body and made a short rubbing sound, indicating that he knew.

Walking out of the tent, Keel walked around on the slightly cold clay bricks with bare feet.

This kind of simple fired earth brick is simply fired with soil mixed with strong grass stems in grass fuel, and its strength is limited. It is not known how the local people used them to build an underground building of this scale.

Keel thought, they must have drawn a lot of time and manpower to repair these things. At first, it might just be a hilly cave for refuge, but then it was found that it could resist the surrounding monsters, and then it was possible to dig from top to bottom, and wherever it was dug, the village would extend.

When he was walking towards Knight Crowe's tent, he had a funny idea. If a passage was dug directly under the surface of the grassland along the trade road, and it would not be harassed by the harpies at all, maybe everyone here could get rid of it. Invasion of monsters.

"Two-way, two-lane roads are the best. You can walk around at the same time. Ha, and each village is a highway rest stop."

Kiel shook his head with a smile, and came to the door of the knight's tent.

"Keil? Come in."

The voice of Knight Crowe came out, and the guard at the door of the nearby camp friendly lifted the heavy curtain for Kiel, motioning for Kiel to enter.

When you walk in, you can see Knight Crowe sitting on a chair, crossing his legs and writing something in a book.

"It's so late, Carl said you have something to do with me? It's about fighting during the day, right? Wait a minute, I have to record some experience in combat. These thoughts and inspirations are fleeting, far from warming up on weekdays. What you can gain from training."

As he said that, Knight Crowe ignored Keir and focused on the ink quill in his hand. After thinking about it, he wrote a paragraph.

Kiel curiously wanted to see what Knight Crowe had written, but Knight Crowe swung the book and refused to let Kiel read it.

"You kid, if I wasn't teaching you knight training, you would be beaten like this, you know?"

Knight Crowe cursed with a smile, but still refused to let Keir watch. He pointed to a wooden chair next to him and said nothing, but Keir knew that he should sit on that chair and wait obediently.

Shrugging his shoulders, Keel moved the wooden chair and sat opposite Knight Crowe, just waiting quietly.

The subtle sound of the knight's pen rustling on the book, as well as the subtle crackling of the darker oil lamp, made everything extraordinarily quiet.

Safe and quiet.

Somehow, Keel relaxed, propped his head on his hands, closed his eyes, and breathed slowly.

The life energy in the body is clearly perceived by his consciousness, they are not very active, and with the blood flow in the body, the life energy also moves around.

With a movement in his heart, the divine power of the **** of agriculture in his body was also clearly felt. They are different from life energy. Although they are all over the body, there are very few parts of the body, and most of them are gathered on a germinated seed that does not know whether it exists on the trunk of the body.

By interacting with a wooden bracelet on his wrist, the total amount of Saturn's divine power is still growing at a very weak rate.

It is really extremely weak, not even as good as the Saturn's divine power naturally radiated from the hilt and scabbard of his long sword.

And on his chest, a small wooden sculpture hung on it turned from the previous wood, but it was pitch black at this moment. Keel opened his eyes, took it out from his chest, held it in front of his eyes and looked at it with the light of the oil lamp.

This thing looks like it has been burnt black, but when you rub it with your hands, there is not a single bit of toner on your fingers, and the surface of the wood carving is oily, it looks like it has been played with for a long time.

Perhaps, this is what this thing really looks like. The archer who was defeated by him relied on this thing for many years to connect with the bird god. This thing was not only his restriction, but also the source of the ability that made the archer special.

It must be the most important item to that person.

Maybe not just an ordinary object.

Keel looked at the bird wood carving, and suddenly felt that not only was he looking at the other party, but the other party seemed to be looking at him through the wood carving's bird head.

Because he was angry with the gods before and drove him out, so when he carefully looked at the bird's head on the wood carving, Kiel felt that there was still a lot of anger in the pair of black and shiny wooden eyes.

The corners of Keel's mouth curled up, a bad idea.

He twirled his fingers in his mouth, stained with saliva, and then slowly approached the wooden carved bird's head.

Here comes the interesting part, the anger in the bird's head's eyes suddenly became great, and the whole wooden sculpture was still shaking slightly, as if trying to escape from Kiel's clutches.

But with a little force on his left hand, the wood carving couldn't escape.

Soon, the anger in Bird's eyes changed to grief, and then turned into begging for mercy the moment the fingers were about to touch.

"Hey hey."

Kiel smiled involuntarily.

Knight Crowe snorted: "Keil, what are you doing? You screamed strangely. As a knight apprentice, although I can't teach you everything about knights, apart from knight training, you must at least do knight etiquette." down to the basics."

"This kind of weird smile should never be uttered in front of others. Of course, it's best not to make such a strange look in private. Strength and confidence come from everyone's heart. The more superb and powerful the ability, the better The spiritual requirements are very high. A dissolute and indulgent person cannot learn advanced skills."

Keir immediately put away his weird smile, wiped his fingers on his body, and then handed the wooden carving on his neck to Knight Crowe.

Knight Crowe didn't take it directly, but closed the book, and took the wood carving over with the book cover.

He looked at it carefully for a while: "It looks like the wood carving you seized some time ago? It's turned black. Is there any difference?"

Keel explained that he had given the wood carving to the priest for inspection.

"Oh, so that said, this is a good thing. It seems that you were really lucky in the Gurov knight's territory that day. You captured a magic weapon and got such a weird thing."

"So, how?"

Knight Crowe looked at the wood carving and Kiel curiously, wanting to see how Kiel had changed.

But it seems not.

Keir shrugged and briefly explained what happened in his sleep or in a special dream space.

Knight Crowe was also amused: "You, you, can you seize the opportunity? Since the other party needs you, and you can also get an extra power, then you can think about it and get in touch with it a little bit. But, just you It is said that the power of this **** is more suitable for hunters who use bows and arrows."

"Well, it's not a knight who doesn't use bows and arrows. How about your bow skills? You can try to practice and develop in this area in the future. Combining the power of the knight with the power bestowed by the old gods, maybe some excellent things will happen. Variety."

Unexpectedly, Knight Crowe is very open about this aspect.

"My lord, I thought you would insist that I only use the knight's life energy."

Knight Crowe smiled: "Why do you think so? Although I have made achievements on this road, I am still just ordinary. Speaking of which, compare me with any hero in the legend , what I am best at is not as good as their shortcomings."

The knight paused for a moment: "Kiel, if you have a way, you have to go, even if it is blocked by the fog, you have to try. Hey—"

He sighed.

"I have seen too many colleagues and companions who have nowhere to go. They have wasted their lives and can only practice **** the little skills they have mastered, but often make limited progress. Most of them have limited talents and cannot To make further progress on the little thing I have mastered, so it will not take a few years, and after there is no way, I can only stop the once hot enterprising heart."

The knight shook the book in his hand, and shook the wood carving on it into Kiel's hand, he continued.

"A small number of people finally compromised. They turned to the church, and gradually changed from the sword in the hands of the lord to the sword in the hands of the church. It cannot be said that they took the wrong path, but if the interests are the same, the nobles are still interested in this We can turn a blind eye to this matter, but once the interests are inconsistent, the knights who fall to the church can only take back their territory and power, and completely fall to the church."

"The church is not weak, is it?"

Keel was skeptical.

Knight Crowe nodded: "That's right, the strength of the church is not weak, they are everywhere, but problems also come, the family is big, the business is big, and there are many troubles. Every church always has countless affairs that need to be solved by people. The need for manpower is unlimited. The knights who turned to the church can only leave their hometowns and fight for the church without the care of the knights. Even with the arrangements of the church, how can the knight's family and clan develop? It’s just being raised by the church, and there is no further possibility.”

"Hey, one day, and this day will not be too slow, the knights who fought for the church will definitely fall on the front line of the unknown battle. Hmph, most of them are fighting for ridiculous beliefs. Keel, you are still young, I have never seen places other than the Kingdom of St. Holes, how many wars are waged, how many knights are killed, and how many people are killed every year because of religious disputes."

Keir was a little silent, but he still asked, why is there no serious dispute over church beliefs in the Kingdom of St. Hulls?

"Because this is a new land, the population is growing, and the churches are far from the point where they need to wage wars to compete for population and faith. If you know the people of the Imperial Border Knights, those knights from the provinces of the empire will tell you that their hometown How often are the wars in China. The churches wage wars against each other, and not even their empire can stop them."

Knight Crowe spread his hands and asked: "If the empire is a place with advanced civilization, stable society, and a peaceful place to live, why are there still countless immigrants from the empire every year to the Kingdom of St. Halls, which has been established for less than a hundred years? They Traveling thousands of miles full of food, losing more than half of the people, came to this wild and undeveloped land, playing with %￥#%￥harpies flying in the sky, and swallowing everything on the swamp the powerful monsters as companions?"

Knight Crowe exhaled and calmed down: "You are still young, enjoy your life. Here, you will avoid countless sorrows and sufferings, and live your life innocently. This is a good thing, and it is what countless people wish for. A godsend. Treasure."

Keel pursed his lips and sighed secretly.

Both of them were silent for a while, and Keir hesitated for a long time in the end, and told Knight Crowe about the special situation he saw happened in the special environment where the gods related to woodcarving 'invited' him in.

"Stinking blood stains? Small mushrooms protruding from the body? The two are competing with each other? There are also small unknown words all over the skin? Hey, Keel, little Keel, how can I tell you?"

Crow Knight's reaction was very strange, looking at Kiel in a way of looking at a strange thing.

"Your luck is really better than ordinary people. Have you ever bet with anyone? Have you ever played in a casino in the city?"

Crow Knight asked a strange question.

Keir was a little puzzled, but he still answered: "I have gambled a few times, but I have never been to a casino. Gambling is not good, very bad. It takes advantage of people's risk-taking psychology, and it is always in the small possibility but more profitable. 'Tricking' human beings about things. People think that the final gain will be greater, but in fact it will always be smaller, and the pay is greater than the gain. And this is still normal gambling."

Kilby swiped his palm: "If it is an abnormal gambling with the cooperation of agencies and personnel, basically the gain is equal to nothing, but the effort will take away everything a person has."

"all."

"Hahahaha, well said, I didn't expect you to have a clear understanding of this aspect at such a young age. If you become a knight, then basically all bets will no longer be open to you, because you can easily Seeing through the traps of their **** at the casinos. Only normal people think it's going to be 'fair'. Laugh out loud."

Knight Crowe waved his hand: "But I don't mean this, but to find a luck competition, try it, and see how lucky you really are. If it's true, Keel, you must be favored by the goddess of luck. Favored. Absolutely."

Kiel rubbed his nose, a little unbelieving, and Knight Crowe asked back: "Do you rarely fail when you bet with others?"

Keir replied awkwardly: "Uh, I haven't lost yet."

Knight Crowe was angry, and he tapped Kiel a few times without saying anything, but he had an expression of 'look, what did I say' on his face.

"That's it, don't talk about this annoying topic. %￥, Keir, let me ask you, you work under Jenny, hasn't she told you about you, that is, the tiny words on the surface of the skin? "

Keir was a little confused, what is all this, does it have anything to do with Knight Lanisa?

"No, with that said, she seems to have hinted at something to me, but she didn't say it explicitly."

Keir rolled up his sleeves and rubbed his strong arms with his hands, but there were no tattoos or words on his arms, it was clean and strong.

Knight Crowe didn't speak, but his eyes lit up, not to describe it, but they really lit up, emitting a khaki-yellow gleam, filling both eyes glisteningly.

Seeing Knight Crowe looking at him carefully, Keel immediately sat up straight.

"Well, I can still see it. Keel, my eyes can barely see the flow of magic power at close range when my eyes are filled with the life energy that has undergone the qualitative transformation of the elements."

He then pointed to Kiel: "And you, under the vision of magic power, you can see the small words with magic power all over your body."

Kiel was stunned: "Magic reaction? Are these invisible words magical? Did someone cast a spell on me and curse me?"

"Ignorant, what does a curse have to do with magic power? Although curses are related to magic power in a broad sense in nature, they are basically more related to emotions. This is common sense, don't get confused. If you are cursed, as long as you Find the thing that has the greatest emotional connection with the curse, and if you destroy it, you can break the general curse."

Keir didn't know this kind of 'common sense', and immediately realized that he had guessed wrong, so he quickly recorded this knowledge point.

Knight Crowe looked at Kiel carefully, and then said: "These are more words that seem to be made of magic power, hey, they are used to restrain magic power. Kiel, Jenny didn't tell you about this , also for your own good."

Kiel blinked, fell silent, and listened carefully to what Knight Crowe said.

Although Knight Jenny-Lanessa did not tell Kiel about this, she told Knight Crowe and the baron that when dealing with the monster discovered last year, Kiel finally rushed into the giant spider-shaped monster recklessly but bravely. inside of the body.

And successfully destroyed the magic core of Warcraft.

Generally speaking, the powerful, grotesque and distorted magical power of the monster would directly erode and vaporize Kiel who came into contact with it. However, after Knight Lanisa rescued him, he did not find that Kiel suffered from this suffering. By means of unknown origin, the magical power of the magical beast in the body was sealed.

"She saw something wrong with you at that time. The magic power is full, but it is not the case of a knight with a qualitative change in magic power, nor is it the appearance of a monster that can use magic~www.readwn.com~ Well, it is like, a piece of energy is fully charged magic gem?"

Crowe Knight finally described it this way.

Keir rubbed his face, how did he become a magic gem?

"It just looks like a magic gem. When I look at you now, there is no magic power escaping from your body. Even those tiny words separate your body from the natural magic power of the outside world. It’s not that you are so close to me, if I only look at you with magic power, I can’t even see you. Unless I look carefully at the words made of magic power, but they are too small.”

Knight Crowe rubbed his chin and analyzed.

"Keil, do you know where the tiny writing came from?"

Knight Crowe asked, and Kiel touched his heart subconsciously.

The knight was noncommittal about this: "The thing of the ancient elves, it saved you more than once. If you didn't have this thing, maybe you died in the battle against Warcraft last year."

Kiel responded with a nasty voice.

He also realized that this was the second time Ms. Apolfina had saved his life.

No, in terms of time, this is the first life-saving move.

‘I owe someone two lives. Keel, what do you want to pay back? '

Silently asking myself, Keir didn't know how to pay back. The lady said that she wanted to use him to do things, but she also disliked his low strength. So far, she has not issued any tasks to him, and let him use the dark jungle dream that can travel at any time for nothing. , and also arranged for a goblin who was not easy to deal with to assist him.

I am ashamed.

He shrugged, let's do it first, working hard to improve his strength is the top priority.

Then Knight Crowe spoke about another foul-smelling bloodstain.
