"Hahahaha", City Lord Xie Lin, who had finished washing up and put on a clean and grand formal dress, held up his wine glass, patted Link's shoulder affectionately, and said to him: "Come, have a drink, respect.
Link Knight, thank you so much for today, I must have a good drink with you!"
"Either way, they are all our own people." Link also pretended to be very familiar with Xie Lin, clinked glasses with Xie Lin, and laughed: "What City Lord Xie Lin did today really made me very happy.
I admire you. It’s really a blessing for the common people to have a city lord like you in Habei City. Come on, cheers, cheers!”
Next to them, there were those military attaches who also participated in the rescue of the poor people in the slums today. They also gathered around Link and City Lord Xie Lin, drank a drink with them, and then cheered loudly.
"Shameless, how can people be so shameless?!" Although Earl Weir is accompanied by some civil servants, they pay attention to etiquette and are destined to be unable to make the atmosphere too lively. Weir is quite a bit
Depressedly looking at Link, who was the center of the audience, and the city lord Xie Lin who deliberately ignored him, he whispered to the little princess beside him: "He was obviously the one who asked to trouble Xie Lin today, why?
In the end, it was me who Xie Lin hated, but he still regarded him as a good person!"
"Knight Link is a very good person." The little princess, who already knew what happened today, laughed silently, looked at Earl Weir, her eyes curled into small crescents: "Knight Link did something today.
Those things he did, he really does look like a great hero!"
"I'm so stupid, why would I discuss this boy's fault with you?" Count Weir slapped his forehead painfully and glared at the little princess: "Even if that boy said that the full moon will rise during the day, you would still say yes.
, girls are outgoing!”
"Huh!" The little princess blushed at what Count Weir said. She turned her head and looked at Link, but she couldn't hide the joyful expression on her face.
"Haha", even Earl Weir doesn't know why. He only knows that he has been with the little princess and Link for a long time, and he has become accustomed to not paying too much attention to things like etiquette and etiquette. He doesn't even care about the little princess.
The ambiguous relationship with Link, something that should have been taboo, could now be easily joked about, and he even felt a little happy about it, but he turned his attention to the person who was chatting and laughing in the middle of the hall.
Link, when the officials surrounding him were looking at him with admiration, they couldn't help but angrily despised him: "This kid is so shameless!"
Just now, when Xie Lin was talking to them and ignored the command for a moment, causing the house in front of him to be washed down by the downpour, almost crushing those who were still inside, Earl Weir just
Realizing that Link had been standing beside him, he rushed out.
The economic situation of the Saqqara Empire was already much worse than that of the Bavarian Empire. However, under the implementation of a strict hierarchical system, the living conditions of these poor people in Habe City, not to mention the Weir
It was unimaginable for a child of a knightly noble family like the Earl. Even Link felt that his life in the small blacksmith shop of Fort Colo was already considered a relatively poor person in the Bavarian Empire. Compared to Sakala
The poor people of the empire are indeed much better off.
In the small castle of Habe City, the situation in the slums is even more miserable. The houses they live in are mostly just large sheds connected by small sheds. In addition to protecting against rain, the roofs are
In addition to being relatively solid, everything else from the walls to the pillars are made of unknown materials patchwork. Not only is this kind of structure difficult to withstand strong winds and heavy rains, but it also makes it difficult to
The collapse of the pillars may not have any impact at all, but it may also collapse the entire corner. Just like the moment Link rushed out, the sheds in the entire corner simply collapsed into one piece.
And this kind of sheds are connected to sheds, and houses are built on top of houses. There is no regular architectural structure at all, and no one knows how many families' houses will be affected every time they collapse.
As a result, many people were lucky enough to huddle in a corner of their rooms, refusing to come out no matter how the guards outside greeted them. After all, for them, the things inside, including this humble shed, were all they had.
property.
So it wasn't until the collapse of the pillar caused a series of chain reactions, causing a large area of the entire corner to collapse, that the people who had been huddled inside realized that something was wrong, jumped up, yelled, and ran around.
At that time, City Lord Xie Lin and the soldiers who were still nearby discovered the people inside, but at this time, with their abilities, there was no way they could break in.
It was at this time that a few sharp-eyed guys among them discovered that the envoy from the Bavarian Empire who had been standing next to Count Weil had turned into a man in that instant.
The faint shadow moved quickly through the collapsing house at a speed that was almost beyond the limit of everyone's vision.
Many human figures were continuously thrown out during the passage of this shadow.
"Wil, Chippa", Link's voice came from the dusty house that was collapsing: "Catch them!"
Earl Weir is already a strong man who has reached the rank of Golden Knight, and Chippa is well-trained. Although they didn't react for a moment, when Link's voice came, they all acted quickly and instinctively.
Taking action, they quickly moved forward, opened up their fighting spirit, and caught everyone thrown by Link from the collapsing house.
There was a "squeak" sound, and the pillar that had just been broken did not know what the key support point was. Seeing that the entire corner shed began to slowly tilt to one side, and the pressure obviously began to make another
The sheds in the corners were also tilted and crooked. These sheds were built very randomly. Even the most outstanding architects could not clearly see the mechanical structure inside, nor could they predict what would happen next.
What kind of changes have occurred? However, under this situation, it seems that it is very dangerous to stay inside at this time.
"Ah!" In fact, at this moment, just a moment after Link flew in, the soldiers surrounding the outside didn't have time to all exclaim in surprise until now.
"Come out quickly." City Lord Xie Lin is a civil servant and cannot help at all in this situation. Seeing Link's figure still searching inside, he has already forgotten all the unhappiness just now.
He clenched his fists and shouted anxiously: "Come out quickly, the house is about to collapse!"
Just when Lord Xie Lin's screams had just ended, the corner that had been crumbling in the heavy rain finally could no longer hold up, and the entire large area collapsed completely.
"Link!"
"Lord Link!"
Although Weir was confident that a blow of this magnitude could not hurt Link, under this atmosphere, he still couldn't help but cry out in worry, and Zipa was even more nervous. When his whole body stretched out, he almost wanted to
Just rush in like this.
For Chippa, if something happens to Link, the full-power escort officer of the Bavarian mission, in front of him, even if it is some non-fatal injuries, it is likely to affect Lord Perigo's entire plan.
possible factors, and this is something Chippa will never allow to happen.
Fortunately, at this moment, Link's figure finally flashed out just before the collapse, and he was still holding several people who had been stunned by fright in his two hands.
"Lord Link," Zipa shouted in surprise, and went forward to greet him. He told the other soldiers to help put the people in Link's hands into place. Looking at Link who looked a little gray, he shouted: "Are you okay?
Bar!"
"Hero!" The soldiers also cheered.
"I'm fine." Link seemed a little weak, shook his body, and said to them: "Go help those people first!"
"I'm talking about the great Knight Link, what are you trying to do?" Count Weir looked at Link's performance and thought about how he looked angry just now when he wanted to trouble the Lord of Xie Lin City, and he understood a little bit.
I guess this time I was used as a weapon by this kid again. He shouted in a depressed mood: "You are too handsome for being a hero, aren't you?!"
"Lord Count Vere, you..." Zipa somewhat understood Count Vere's mood, but he really didn't want to see something go wrong again just after the situation calmed down, so he hurriedly wanted to speak.
"Okay, let me talk about the great Knight Link," but Earl Weir didn't give Chippa a chance to speak at all, and said directly: "Now that the heroes are done, it's time to get back to our original serious topic.
I remember when we first came here, you seemed to have said something? Don’t you have something to say to Lord Xie Lin in person?!"
Of course, Earl Weir also knew that Link must have his own reasons for doing this, but now that he was depressed, he decided not to let Link slip by so easily. Anyway, this kind of thing has nothing to do with the overall situation.
, no matter how you say it, you can't let this guy Link take away all your good reputation, and he will be the one to do the evil.
Besides, even if Link doesn't want to be this evil person, he still wants to see how embarrassed he is when he explains to himself this sudden change of attitude. For Earl Weir, who is now holding back his anger,
, being able to see Link looking unhappy can be considered a relatively satisfying and relaxing thing.
However, just as Count Weir was preparing to see how Link would answer his question with a bit of depression and expectation, he found that the corner of Link's mouth was pulled at an angle that no one else could see.
She gave him a strange expression.
Then, under the gaze of so many people, Link rolled his eyes, swayed, and fell softly to the ground. Mud and water splashed everywhere, and he fainted just like that.
"ah!"
"Someone come quickly!"
There were exclamations all around, and many people rushed forward to help Link up.
"This is the real hero!" Lord Xie Lin, who just came over, sighed loudly. While instructing the soldiers to carry Link back to the resting place, he did not forget to glance at Count Weir with his cold eyes.
, shook his head and said: "Both are envoys of the Bavarian Empire, and both are knights of the Bavarian Empire. Between the two, how come one is such a hero, and the other is such..."
"City Lord Xie Lin!" Qi Pa said heartily, interrupting Lord Xie Lin's words.
However, the expression on Lord Schelling's face, which he did not even look at Count Vere, but shook his head and sneered, had fully expressed his contempt for Count Vere.
"I...he..." Count Weir opened his mouth, looked at himself and then at Link, but he really didn't know what to say.
"How shameless! How could I have such a companion?!" Seeing Link being surrounded like a hero, Count Weir couldn't say anything else besides lamenting.
"Lord Earl Weir," Chippa watched Weir muttering depressedly to himself. He was also afraid that something would happen to this guy again, so he quickly came over with a cup and said to Weir: "I'll drink with you.
One cup!”
"Tell me, what can't we do for this boy today?" After Count Weir had a drink with Chippa, he grabbed him and complained: "Look at these guys, why do they treat him like a treasure? It's really
I’ve never seen the world!”
"Haha, with Lord Weir's ability as the golden knight, he would be able to break in and save people with ease." Zipa responded with a smile: "But Knight Link's ability seems to be very strange. At least he can do it today."
It is really not easy to rescue so many people in such a short period of time, under completely unfamiliar terrain, and I would definitely not be able to do it."
"This guy usually escapes a lot, he just runs faster." Count Weir snorted disapprovingly and said: "If it were a knight with a higher rank who could open the fighting spirit shield, then this time
The action was not difficult at all, but this guy's strength is still a little weaker after all!"
Chippa frowned slightly after listening to Count Weir's words.
He is a close confidant of Perigord and is qualified to know about Perigord's plan. Therefore, he is very clear that the only factor that is still uncertain in Lord Perigord's plan is this Link.
Qiyun Paladin was dispatched that day, but they were unable to detect Link's true strength. From this point of view, Link is likely to become a big obstacle when Lord Perigo carries out his plan.
So today, after Link suddenly rushed into the house that was about to collapse to save people, Zipa has been paying attention to Link's every move, hoping to see some clues about Link's true strength.
.
It should be said that the extraordinary speed that Link showed at the beginning shocked Zipa. He was originally a child who grew up in a slum, so he naturally knew how to use large sheds in slums.
The structure is twisted and twisted inside, with various households intertwined together, occupying every possible space. And the poor families regard all their belongings as treasures, and the floor must be full of pots and jars, especially
Under the current situation where the mud and water are up to the calves, even if you want to walk slowly, you will inevitably bump into bumps, but Link is not familiar with the buildings in this slum that is unique to the Sakala Empire.
Under the premise that I am not familiar with, I can move forward and retreat freely here, and my approach and avoidance are as fast as lightning.
Zipa secretly evaluated in his heart that even if he was on a straight line on the flat ground, he would never be able to reach Link's speed with all his fighting spirit. From this point of view, Link's use of
The ability of the regiment's chief security officer cannot be underestimated.
But Chippa also discovered that Link was able to achieve such speed with the help of anything but fighting spirit. As Count Weir said, when fighting spirit reaches the point where it can stretch out the fighting spirit shield, although it is certainly not possible for Lin to save people,
It is so convenient, but it is definitely enough to ensure that you will not suffer any harm. Needless to say, a golden knight like Earl Weir, even a bronze knight like him, will inevitably do something dangerous like this.
He habitually put up his Dou Qi shield to protect himself, but Link had no intention of doing so at all.
This also shows that if Link’s Dou Qi cultivation is not yet high enough to open the Dou Qi shield, it is because even though he does not know what kind of energy Link relied on when he reached this strange speed,
This kind of energy should be incompatible with fighting spirit.
In this way, a completely different conclusion can be reached regarding Link's strength evaluation.
Link's speed of advancing and retreating is so fast that it simply exceeds the limit of human vision. In battle, it will naturally cause great pressure and threat to the opponent. However, if this speed and fighting spirit cannot be used at the same time, even this
No matter how elusive this speed is, at most it can only allow Link to protect himself, but it has absolutely no way of causing any damage to his opponent.
And if this is the case, then when Link faced Qi Yun Paladin, he was able to escape completely, but he still used all his tricks, and he never had a head-on confrontation with Qi Yun Paladin.
A reasonable explanation.
"Is this the true strength of this guy?" Zipa thought to himself: "Are we all a little overestimating this guy?!"
"What are you thinking about, Lord Chippa?" Earl Weir's words woke up Chippa who was in a daze.
"No, no." Zipa quickly raised his head and concealed it with a smile: "I was thinking that Knight Link is so brave. He can't even open his fighting spirit shield. In such a situation, he still rushed forward without hesitation.
In the past, I was too brave, too..."
"What do you mean, Lord Chippa?!" Earl Weir's eyes suddenly widened: "Are you saying that I, a person who can open the shield of fighting energy, am not brave enough and didn't step forward at that time?
?!"
"No, no," Zipa didn't expect Count Vere's reaction to his casual words to be so big. He secretly wiped his sweat, waved his hands repeatedly, and shouted, "I definitely didn't mean that."
"Oh, someone called me over there. Excuse me, Lord Count Vere!" Chippa was really afraid that Count Vere would continue to ask questions, so he turned his head in another direction, pretended to yell, and apologized to Count Vere.
, turned around and ran away as if running away.
He didn't notice that behind him, Count Weir looked at his running figure and showed a smile, looking very cunning and cunning.
