Lord Highlander

Suldak's prejudice against college students may have been deeply rooted in his bones, and his attitude towards newcomers was extremely unfriendly.

This made Karl a little worried, and he had to remind solemnly: "Dark, you can carry out rigorous training for these young knights who have newly joined the guard camp, but the most important thing is to pay attention to their safety. The barren land was originally intended to avoid military service. Since you can use the high-level connections of the guard battalion to stuff people in, they are some of the leading figures in Hailansa City. You don’t need to make everyone love you, but at least you can’t let everyone love you. Everyone hates you..."

Over crispy salted cashews, Suldak and Karl chatted a lot.

"You actually got the official number of the Cavalry Battalion, and you plan to perform defense-changing missions with Marquis Luther's army in the spring. That's really good. Maybe when you come back from the Bailin plane, you will already be a first-class baron! "Karl heard that Suldak already had the qualifications to build a private army, and he was considered a small lord in the province of Bena. He looked at Suldak in surprise.

Suldak shrugged and said nothing.

This matter was obtained with the support of Marquis Luther, and there is really nothing to show off. Suerdak suddenly felt that he was no different from the Byrd tax collector who was eating soft food.

Bird tax collector interjected and asked, "Dark, is your cavalry battalion ready? I mean cavalry, horses, armor and supplies."

"It's not ready yet, cavalry and horses are not easy to obtain..." Suldak said.

The plump tavern proprietress passed through the crowd and came to Karl's side. She was wearing a very well-fitting dress and whispered a few words in Karl's ear.

Karl glanced in the direction of the bar, and Mrs. Mariana actually fell asleep lying on the bar.

Karl carried the drunken Mrs. Mariana back to the room upstairs in the tavern, and Mrs. Mariana's maid followed behind to hold her long skirt.

Collector Byrd and Miss Hoyle also left together after getting slightly drunk.

Only Suldak and Lance were left, and Suldak asked, "How can I increase the affinity of magic elements?"

Lance was picking up his glass and taking a sip of wine, his eyes fell on the bulging chest of the ale girl in the corner, when he heard Surdak's question, he didn't react for a while, and asked in surprise: "Ah! What are you doing? To ask this?"

Suldak pondered for a while before saying: "A friend has awakened the fire element in his body, but the affinity of the fire element is not enough."

Lance frowned. He put down his wine glass, waved to the wine girl, and said to Suldak: "This is a troublesome matter. If you can't raise the affinity of the fire element, if the fire element can't Completely fused with the body, it will continue to burn the body, as a fire magician, I can often feel this pain."

The liquor girl approached Lance gracefully.

Lance reached out to pick up two large glasses of ale from her tray, and stuffed a shiny silver coin into her plump chest, causing the ale girl to cry out in surprise, and hurried away with the wooden tray, but turned her head On the occasion, he threw a wink at Lance.

"However... for us magicians, the solution to this problem is actually very simple." Lance pushed a glass of beer in front of Suldak and said, "The first way is to use fire magic frequently. When the mana in your own magic pool is consumed below the level, it will not affect your body."

"What about the second method?" Suldak asked.

"The second way is to improve the affinity of the fire element through meditation. This is a persistent process, and the effect will not be too obvious every day. Only after a long period of time can you experience the benefits of meditation." Lance said.

Immediately afterwards he said: "The third way is to improve one's own resistance through foreign objects, such as fire resistance potion, powerful troll potion, vitality potion, etc. Of course, no matter what kind of magic potion, the price on the market is very high." Expensive. You can also improve your physical condition by eating the flesh and blood of fire-type monsters."

Only then did Suldak realize that he wanted to solve his own troubles in order to find the salamanders in Hailansa.

"You mean to eat some salamander meat in this situation, it will be better?" Suldak asked.

"Of course!" Lance responded.

"Lance, I want to hire a magician to scout in the sky and be the eyes of our combat team." Suldak said to Lance: "He must be willing to follow us into the desert and clean up the desert over there." Desert Bandit, do you have any good candidates to recommend to me?"

Lance asked in surprise: "Are you finally going to take action against those desert robbers?"

Suldak nodded, and only said, "They've been having a bit of a fight lately."

Lance patted his forehead, and said worriedly: "In such a cold day, I always have to fly around the sky on a magic scorpion. Only those magic apprentices with little savings are willing to do this kind of drudgery, but they have nothing to do. Savings, many magic apprentices can’t afford a magic handle, I can ask people around me for you.”

The two chatted for a while before leaving the tavern.

Lance put his arms around the slender waist of the wine girl, got into a magic caravan on the side of the road, and ran away quickly, leaving only Surdak standing at the door of the tavern.

It is estimated that Lance will not ask which magic apprentice is willing to accept this task tonight, Suldak sighed softly, thinking whether he should go to the magic union in the city to try his luck.

This tavern is not far from the garden square, and there are not many pedestrians on the street at night.

The cold wind blows on the face, and the exposed skin will soon turn red from the cold.

Suldak intends to walk back to the hotel and explain to Aphrodite what will happen tomorrow. If he is not required to stay in Hailansa City, he will use the Void Gate to return to Wall Village. The bed in the hotel was much warmer.

...

Viru climbed over the wall outside the hotel, and stretched out his hand to throw the hook line to the roof ridge of the four-story building. He stretched out his hand and climbed up to the roof like a gecko, and stood on the terrace against the cold night wind.

The bone-chilling wind could not penetrate his leather armor.

He didn't know why the fire element in his body had been weakened, or why his body had become stronger. In short, his current feeling was better than ever.

I even feel that as long as I calm down, it is very possible to open the door in the sea of ​​spiritual knowledge and let myself reach another level. People in the Green Empire like to call those people rank two powerhouses.

It's just that there is an obsession in his heart that keeps him from calming down. He is an eagle eye and a professional demon hunter at the same time. He knows how to find his target.

Chasing after that faint breath, Viru chased here.

He tiptoed to the terrace, thinking about how to gently wake up the people in the room.

He walked to the wooden door of the balcony. He wanted to reach out and knock on the door in front of him, but at this moment he suddenly felt something staring at him in the darkness. Looking around, I saw a cold face reflected on the glass of the window, looking at him with a gloomy expression. At this moment, his heart felt as if it was hit hard by a dwarf craftsman's hammer. one time.

The body standing at the door staggered, but he did not fall while holding his heart.

The door on the terrace was pulled open by a woman. The woman wore a mithril mask on her face. The next second she appeared in front of him, the mithril mask was lifted by the woman, revealing the delicate and perfect face inside. .

That face seemed to blend into the dark night, and those eyes were far deeper than the winter starry sky. Looking at those eyes, he felt dazed and confused for a while. He even forgot where he came from and where he was going. , he even forgot where he was...

In the few seconds when Vilu's body was stiff, Aphrodite almost concentrated all her magic power in her eyes, and she was "charming" Vilu.

Night, originally it was her home field.

Although she could feel a dangerous smell from Viru, she still decided to try it. She didn't even use the 'cloud of sleep' or 'hypnosis', and she didn't even think about dragging Vilu into the illusion, but It was a direct use of her natural power.

She wants to subdue Viru and call Suldak back...

But she completely ignored the consequences if the action failed.

As a senior demon hunter, Viru has done targeted training on 'hypnosis', 'charm', 'soul shock', 'fear', 'psychic scream', 'death gaze' and so on. He is stronger than others, but because of a 'calm pendant' hanging around his neck, he can restrain many negative black magics. Although Aphrodite did 'charm' him when he appeared, it was just It's a matter of a split second.

Soon he struggled out of the endless void, he seized this rare opportunity, stood in front of Aphrodite, drew the scorching bow in his hand, a fine steel arrow rested on the bow string, as long as he let go, That steel arrow will shoot through Aphrodite's heart.

And Aphrodite had a shiny black dagger in his hand, which happened to rest on Vilu's throat.

The two were in a stalemate, and neither of them moved rashly.

...

Suldak pushed open the door and found that the room was pitch black and there was no response, his heart sank to the bottom.

He knew that there must be something wrong in the room. The succubus is usually very alert, which has a lot to do with the harsh environment she lives in hell all year round. In hell, if she doesn't know how to protect herself more effectively, she may even die I don't know how he died.

Suldak knew in his heart that it was impossible for Aphrodite to not respond when she pushed the door open.

There was no light in the room. He walked a few steps into the room and saw that the wooden door of the terrace was open, and the cold wind was blowing in from the outside, and the two people on the terrace were in a stalemate, refusing to give in. Surdak hurriedly He strode forward and put his hands on Vilu's arched back immediately.

"Relax, don't hurt her." Suldak reminded Viru, with a hint of warning in his tone.

Vilu simply put down the scorching bow in his hand, and Aphrodite also took the opportunity to put away the dagger on his neck, staring at Vilu coldly not to be outdone.

Surdak lit the wall lamp in the room, and said to Viru on the terrace, "Come in and sit for a while."

Viru was silent for a while, then raised his head and said to Suldak, "She smells like demons!"

Suldak let the succubus into the room, and stood at the door of the terrace and said to Viru: "Aphrodite is a succubus, but she betrayed the demons and is now a member of my combat team."

Viru walked into the room with an attic on the top floor of the hotel, ignored the succubus Aphrodite, and asked Suldak directly: "Do you remember me?"

"I don't remember, including many things in the past." Sulda pulled a chair and said with an extremely calm expression.

Viru refused to give up, and reminded Suldak: "The Windchaser adventure group we created together?"

He also said, "The enemy we both hunted down?"

Continued: "Our hometown..."

He saw that Suldak was still indifferent, and there was no evasion or retreat in those eyes, which made his newly sprouted hope shrink back into the soil, and he stared at Suldak with regret.

Suldak felt goosebumps all over his body when he looked at Viru's sad eyes. He said in a deep voice, "I don't even remember, I forgot a lot of things..."

"When I woke up, it was a group of heavy armored infantry soldiers who carried me back from the pile of dead people on the front line of the forest farm in the Gandarer Mountains, Handanar County, Warsaw, and I stayed there to follow them Fight together until they are wiped out in the Battle of Moyunling, I came here to fulfill a promise of mine."

Viru could feel that what Suldak said was true.

He sat down dejectedly, and looked at the strange yet familiar man from the north...

Viru told the story of why Suldak was lying on the battlefield of the Ganda Er Mountain Forest Farm.

"We were looking for the Montetroya magician all over the world at that time. Do you remember the Montetroya magician? Jambach!" Viru asked suddenly.

Suldak shook his head without hesitation.

Viru sighed and said: "That is our common enemy. We have been looking for him all over the world, thinking that one day we can kill him on the spot. With our own means, we can't sneak into every plane. So we found the largest mercenary regiment in Sloit Province, followed the mercenary regiment to perform missions all over the world, and participated in various forms of employment battles, but later we both performed two different missions. When you came back from the plane of Luo Qi, I heard they said that you died in battle on the plane of Warsaw, and there were no bones left..."

"Later, I also left that adventure group and just traveled all over the world without any destination."

Viru only talked about some things about the two of them joining the mercenary group, feeling that he was still avoiding certain things, but this memory Suldak couldn't remember it.

"Are you Hawkeye?" Suldak couldn't help asking.

"What?" Viru looked at him suspiciously.

Suldak touched his nose, smiled sheepishly, and said, "If it is, I would like to ask you for a favor."
