Throne Steps

When it came to meeting the mercenaries, although Li Chen was only an "actor" recruited temporarily, he didn't care much about the suddenness of the scene.Even if you didn't understand it at the time, it's not hard to figure it out afterwards.The fact that Saenz would reveal his identity to the group of mercenaries—of course only to a certain extent—indicated that he was sure that the group of mercenaries would eventually choose to follow him.

If you have to choose a question that is more confusing, it is natural that "high imitation Lailier" is better.

Li Chen had previously felt that this woman should stay, but this was more or less a fanciful conjecture, and he didn't think deeply about it.Now that this woman actually appeared in their "secret operation", Li Chen had to investigate further.

When they returned to the hotel, Saenz's men were finishing their meal in the hall, and Akye, who followed them around somewhere, was also present.Saenz took Li Chen directly to the table, while the woman went upstairs wrapped in a cloak.

Although he came from a pure white group, this group of men still eat with a mercenary-like boldness. Li Chen's small body is very powerless submerged in them.Fortunately, Akeye immediately changed his seat to Li Chen's side, and with Saenz's acquiescence, he helped him eat, and the dinner was finally finished smoothly.

The boss who came to serve the food was very surprised to see that Saenz was there.When he made complaints about "Sar is 'no'" on the basis of "going to Huashe and coming back so soon", he was kicked away by Saenz.

After dinner, Li Chen naturally couldn't run anywhere, and consciously followed Saenz into the room.As soon as he put down his cane, he saw Saenz taking off his cloak, so he hurried to pick it up.

"I saved them last year." Saenz took the initiative to bring up the topic, "Huatzburg Warcraft almost ate their lives. They have been trying to contact me since then."

The context of the story is very clear, and Li Chen does not intend to question it.However, Zuoman and the others didn't seem to be fledgling reckless brats who would recklessly run into the Warcraft of Huatzburg, Li Chen still smelled something unusual.

"Huatzburg monster?" Li Chen replied while folding Saenz's cloak, "Isn't that the toubob of the southern swamp? Since they weren't prepared, why did they want to provoke it?"

Saenz unscrewed the wristband: "If you are too confident in yourself, you will have such troubles."

Li Chen hugged Saenz's cloak: "Today is not the first time I have heard a warning."

Saenz was passing him, and when he heard his interruption, he reached out and pinched the back of his neck: "Don't interrupt."

Li Chen touched the pinched place: "Your Highness, I must say, this is not the first time you pinched me today."

"The range of activities of the 'Swamp Lords' has changed a lot compared to the past, and they happened to step on the newly defined range." Saenz walked towards Li Chen's cane, "Although this news is not known to everyone, but the people who fight alone The team always lacks the intelligence from the mercenary group, this is their shortcoming, and it is also the reason why they are eager to find a backer."

Li Chen's thoughts are still on the Warcraft of Huatzburg: "Why did the range of activities of the 'Swamp Lord' change? It's the same as Samuel's monsters, Song of the Siren?"

Even if it is affected by abnormal factors, there are many possibilities.Li Chen deliberately mentioned "Song of the Siren", on the one hand, to refer to abnormal factors, and on the other hand, to mock Saenz metaphorically.There is no way, Saenz warned with his mouth and moved with his hands today, so Li Chen couldn't help but fight back a little.

The song of the Siren was like a secret signal between the two of them, and Saenz knew that Li Chen was expressing his dissatisfaction as soon as he heard it.But Pure White didn't get angry because of the offense, but picked up Li Chen's cane, pinched the metal ring and twisted it: "No reason, natural reason."

He seemed to have completely unscrewed the inlay, but he didn't make any further movements, but turned the head of the cane to face Li Chen.Li Chen grabbed one end of the four-claw buckle magic crystal and pulled it lightly, and a slender dagger came out of the hollow wooden staff lightly.

"This is……"

Li Chen looked closely at the dagger straight up, and saw that the black iron sword was covered with flowers and patterns, and the edge of the sword was dark and bright.Although the overall body is less than two feet long and two fingers wide, it is exquisite and sharp, implying the potential to penetrate stones.

"A dagger made from the tailings of the refining tool, put it in the cane, is enough for you." Saenz didn't care much about the child wielding a knife and gun in front of him, but he nodded as if he was about to With the appearance of taking it back, I couldn't help asking, "Don't you try?"

Li Chen vaguely sensed that the other party was being courteous, so he didn't want to be shy, so he just looked around the room and smiled: "I'll try again when I find a suitable place."

Says Saenz: "Use the metal ring on your foot."

Li Chen was taken aback: "Your Highness?"

When I had a long talk with this pure white color for the first time in the middle of the night, I discovered the circle on my feet. Li Chen didn't tell the origin of this thing, but he didn't hide it either.Over the years, Li Chen tried to find some sharp tools known for their sharpness to try to remove the metal ring, but to no avail.Although he didn't specifically ask Saenz for help, he didn't hide his actions either.Now that Saenz gave him a sword and brought up this topic on his own initiative, he had to have some associations with the so-called "refining tail".

Li Chen took a closer look at the blade of the sword, and tentatively said, "Your Highness, this can't be...Huatzburg spar?"

There are not many monsters that can produce spar - Li Chen has been maliciously speculating that it is actually a stone - the Warcraft of Huatzburg happens to be one of them.And the reason why people still find trouble with this hard stubble is mostly because there is a kind of crystal in the body of Huatzburg Warcraft. It is said that adding it to the refining tool will increase the hardness of the metal. This effect is reflected in the sharpness of the utensil. Especially obvious.

If it is really a Huotzburg spar, even the tailings are extremely precious.Saenz's indifferent tone, I really don't know whether it is arrogant or not short of money.

Saenz looked at Li Chen with raised eyebrows, but didn't answer.When Li Chen saw this attitude, he immediately felt that Saenz had acquiesced.Although he didn't think that the Hotzburg spar could get rid of the necromancer's shackles, but the leader was so caring, he still had to give Jian Feng a try.

He picked a couch and sat down, took off his short boots, and pulled up his left trousers, revealing the metal ring left by the necromancer.This metal ring had room to spare when Li Chen and the Necromancer parted ways, but now it can't fit two fingers into the loose part.A few more years, I'm afraid it will be a very obvious obstacle to Li Chen's ankle development.

Li Chen gestured around his ankle with a dagger.Although the sword itself is already a small size, but his physical skills are not good, I am afraid that the loss outweighs the gain if he strikes rashly.After thinking about it, he still decided to put the sword edge on the metal ring and grind it slowly.

The sound of metal rubbing against metal was very unpleasant. Li Chen pulled the sword back and forth twice before moving away to observe.His thinking was this: if it worked, the sword would at least leave wear marks on the metal ring.But it is expected and unfortunately, even the well-known Huatzburg spar in the Raetia Federation cannot shake the shackles of the Necromancer.Not to mention the traces of wear and tear, even the traces of rubbing are only faintly visible.

Seeing Li Chen's slowly probing and resentful actions, Saenz seemed a little dissatisfied.He walked straight over, put the hollow wooden stick in his right hand and took away Li Chen's short sword, and fixed Li Chen's left foot with his left hand, making gestures.

Li Chen originally wanted to say that he hadn't taken a shower yet, but when he saw that Saenz's action seemed to be about to take a hard blow, he quickly reminded: "Your Highness, a sword has no eyes!"

Just kidding, if he had the courage, he would have used Locke's big sword with the same pattern as the necromancer's dagger to swing it down. How many years would it take?

But Saenz ignored Li Chen, and before he finished speaking, he lowered his sword and hit the metal ring directly. He only heard a "clang", and the sword edge bounced away steadily. There is no damage.

The two weapons collided, and there was no trace on either side. Li Chen's heart was wide open, and he knew that Saenz had enchanted him on the sword.Although the result of the sword test was unsatisfactory, Li Chen was quite surprised by the thought that Saenz put into it.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your trouble." Li Chen took the sword in Saenz's hand and twisted it back into the wooden staff, "I like this gift very much."

Saenz didn't seem to be thinking about it, he just glanced at him and said, "Your 'slave circle'...is a bit interesting."

In some parts of the southwestern border, it is customary to mark slaves with hand and foot shackles.And the one on Li Chen's feet is not so much a decoration, it's more like a shackle that has been cut off from the chain.In the early years, Saenz saw that Li Chen seemed to be only trying to cut off occasionally, and thought that the shackles were hard and Li Chen didn't care much about them, so he never dealt with them seriously, so he still wears them.Now it seems that there may be another mystery.

When Li Chen heard Saenz's indistinguishable tone, he suddenly felt something was wrong.He dared not say a word about the true origin of the metal ring.Back then, they made up a bunch of lies, and the metal ring was the plug on the loophole.As long as you pull it out, you have to tell everything.Once Saenz used the spirit of speech, he couldn't hide a word.

Fortunately, Saenz saw Li Chen with his head bowed, looking casually beating and scolding, his dissatisfaction was still mostly choked back, and he just said quietly: "I don't use words to you, and I definitely don't trust you completely, don't let me down. "

If you change to another confidant, you have followed Saenz for so many years under the premise of a contract, and you are said to be untrustworthy, then you will really lose all hope.Saenz has studied the mind of the powerful since he was a child, so naturally he rarely said such words directly.But when facing Li Chen, he expressed his negative emotions without thinking too much.Before saying this, Saenz realized that the meaning was wrong.But it didn't seem necessary to ask him to come back again, so the Highness stared at Li Chen's reaction after finishing speaking.

Li Chen is indeed the leader's close-fitting padded jacket - of course, there is also the reason why Li Chen has kept it from him - he said with a peaceful smile: "The trust His Highness gave me is completely enough for me to pretend to be a tiger. I deserve it first , will not disappoint your expectations."

Saenz heard that he was still in the mood to play this kind of lines, knowing that the previous words had been exposed.His eyes fell on Li Chen's put away trousers: "I have worked hard on you, but don't end up becoming someone else's slave."

Li Chen said casually: "Thank you for your great kindness. I am willing to tie the knot and hold the grass for your highness, pour your heart out, devote yourself to yourselves, and die!"

He hopped four idioms in a row, but Saenz understood them all. It can be seen that Li Chen likes to play this kind of monster drama.Anyway, no matter how serious it is, it is false, the contract between them is so strong, it is really difficult for Li Chen to betray.

Saenz ignored Li Chen's flattery anytime and anywhere, turned around and said, "Rest."

Li Chen suddenly remembered: "Your Highness, I have another question!"

Saenz turned to look at him, Li Chen said with a smile: "That woman, what did you do?"
