Parallel Armies——The Sound of the Turning Tide Chapter Thirteen
"Black eyes?" Heath heard this keyword and wanted to try to help him up. "Don't get excited yet."
The young man wiped his tears, took a moment to stabilize his emotions, and then choked up and said: "My name is Chester Cheafaren, you saved me, thank you. Three years ago, I went to the neighboring village to deliver things.
At that time, my parents were killed by the Black-Eyed Bandits, and the village was burned down. Later, the lumberjack family in the neighboring village adopted me when they saw that they were alone. In the past three years, I have heard many mercenaries talk about the Black-Eyed Bandits.
He has long been engaged in criminal acts of kidnapping, massacre and arson, but because he is particularly cunning, he has never been caught by the escort."
At this point, Chester shed tears again, and then wiped them with the back of his hand: "Ke Linxi is the daughter of my adoptive father. At that time, my adoptive father first asked me to hide it in the wine cellar, but those bastards came too fast, and I just
I had enough time to sneak attack and kill one... I don't know the rest." Alexander confirmed again, but Chester didn't quite understand why he didn't have the memory of killing the second robber. Only the three of them knew what happened next.
Yes.
"Dark eyes?" Fageni wrote down the name.
Chester knelt on his knees with a thud: "Please let me join your mercenary group, so that I can have the strength to take revenge. In order to take revenge and repay your kindness, I am willing to do anything. I beg you!"
"Alexander, what do you think? I think it's okay." Fageni asked.
"Here, let me think about it." Alexander went to get a basin of water and came back to wash Chester. "You wipe it first, um... We have informed the Countercurrent Trading Company about the attack on the village. Keep an eye out for those bandits.
However, we have other important matters and have to leave early. I'm going to ask if there is a way to communicate with the commercial bank. If not, we can only wait until we are in the place. If you want to join... Although we are short of manpower, we
The things we have to deal with are not fuel-efficient lamps. They are indeed the two robbers you killed, so I think it won’t be a big problem for you to join them.”
After putting down the water basin, Alexander took out a pen and paper from the space equipment: "About the black eyes, please tell me in detail. I will write it down, and then we will figure out a solution."
The origin of the dark eyes was their boss. Charlotte seemed to be unable to sleep due to a strange meditation method. He had dark circles under his eyes since then, and was called that by the escort because of what the survivors witnessed.
This sounds a little strange, because Karin's meditation and the meditation learned by Fageni both rest in a quiet state instead of sleeping. Although it is similar to the elves' trance, they can also sleep normally... But it doesn't matter.
Yes, dark circles are indeed very recognizable.
"I'm going to buy some food. You haven't eaten half a grain of wheat in the past two days." Fageni directly bought everything for four people.
There are still several days of boat rides on the road. Forgetting the first day of training and recovering physical abilities, the three of them are interested in teaching him his own abilities.
During the initial teaching of sword skills by Fageni, Alexander and Heath observed the special properties of Chester himself. When attacking, his pupils would turn pure silvery white for a short time, and at this time Chester
It will enter a state called absolute sanity by Fageni.
In this state, Chester's calculation ability, thinking speed, and insight are greatly improved, but at the same time, he will lose all emotion and think in an absolutely rational way.
Not only that, Chester also has magic power. He can even use magic power to strengthen his body unconsciously, allowing him to maximize his speed in an instant, and even attack twice in a row. Of course, this kind of simple high-speed attack cannot be solved
Apply to moves.
In terms of adaptability alone, all three of them could teach Chester, so in the end the learning time was divided into three parts. But with Fageni as the head coach, everything else was just an added bonus. After all, flexibility is what counts.
The first element of surviving a brutal battle.
Alexander was very interested in this strange ability and began to try to teach him the harmony of elements to see if he could play any new tricks.
Fageni gave the rarely used knife on his back to Chester, and decided to teach his fighting skills to Chester without reservation. At the same time, he often sparred with him to practice his hand-to-hand combat skills.
Heath decided to teach Chester the release spell and simple alchemy, and the first spell was Angel's Tears.
When the four of them arrived at Copenhagen Castle, which combined some of the characteristics of Lamesa and Yajiao Town, it was less than a week before the wedding of Duke Lelan and Princess Bai Ni.
Although he was still very sad, Chester was only thirteen years old and was still very curious about big cities. After entering the city together, there were all kinds of people in the city, which attracted Chester's attention. The three Alexanders have experienced a lot of storms.
, but the attention is often diverted.
It was already dusk not long after we entered the city. We had to find a hotel first, and we had to do it early before it was full. At this time, Chester was looking intently at a shop with a dazzling array of goods.
"We should follow the old rules and report to the Mercenary Industrial Company first, and then go to the Nishiliu Trading Company. I'll see if I can tell the trading company and let the security unit there handle the matter. Fageni, you go find a place to live first.
Come find us at ICBC after opening a room." After Alexander said this, he asked Chester to follow him.
"Okay, you go." Fageni looked around, planning to find someone to ask for directions.
"Speaking of, do you want to register with Chester? After all, we have a new member of the Mad Wolf Mercenary Group." Heath asked.
Fageni found a passerby and asked about the location of the hotel before leaving. Before leaving, he said: "Take Chester to register."
At this time, Alexander had already found a street shop and asked about the locations of the Mercenary Industrial Company and the Countercurrent Commercial Company, and then walked towards the Mercenary Industrial Company. "You don't need to remind me, this is for sure, let's go."
The architectural style of Gobenderburg is not as fancy as Lamesa. The Church of the God of Storms, the Church of the Goddess of Dawn, a Cathedral of the God of Glory and the Mercenary Industry Company each occupy the best location in the main road area.
The Duke's wedding seems to have been held in the church of the Goddess of the Dawn.
The three of them reported at the Mercenary Industrial Company. After Alexander asked about the procedures for joining a new member, he filled in the form for Chester. He took one last look at the commission and said there was nothing special before heading to the Countercurrent Commercial Company.
"From today on, Chester, you are a new member of our Mad Wolf Mercenary Group. Come on, I'm optimistic about you." Heath gave Chester a thumbs up.
"I will definitely become a powerful mercenary who can fight alongside you." The newcomer's eyes were firm, but he was also very self-aware...
After that, Alexander, Heath and Chester went to a magic supplies store to buy some equipment for Chester to save his life. Heath was attracted by the books in a bookstore, and then Chester was amazed by Heath's
When the sound attracted them, Alexander, who was the last one walking at the back door of the Duke's Palace with lush flowers and plants not far away, saw a ferocious-looking multi-armed creature "walking out" that he had never seen before.
"He" has an extremely strong body, with light blue scales shining like gems. If he is in the water, he can hide his figure very well. There are decorative copper rings on his six arms and tail, and his face
It is quite handsome for a humanoid creature, and even from human eyes, it has a different kind of terrifying charm. The fangs at the mouth are very sharp, and the pair of amber pupils look even more heroic. There are six swords hanging on the waist that shine with cold light.
scimitar.
"Hmm." Alexander had never seen this kind of creature before and couldn't help but take a second look.
Kanas naturally noticed this female human carrying a bow and arrow, a weapon that was not available in the water. From the uniform muscles, it can be seen that this female human must have strong explosive power and endurance.
And after the human took one look at Kanas, he got into the shop where his companion entered...
Among the many books on the bookcase, there was a novel describing swords and magic, which was filled with subtle magic. Not only Heath, but also Chester felt that the book was extraordinary, but the shopkeeper, clerk and several others
The customer had no reaction.
"That book looks very good. It seems to have a weak magical power. Maybe..." Heath thought it was a magic book.
Chester really didn't know how to hide himself, and his eyes almost popped out of his head, but Heath was even better at hiding it than him. Chester tugged on the hem of Heath's clothes as if to remind her to buy it quickly and not make a fuss.
What movement.
"Ahem, calm down first." Hitz walked over.
Alexander sighed and held Hitz's head behind her, picked up the book and went to the counter to ask how much it cost.
But to the clerk, it seemed that it was just a novel. Although it was well-made, it only cost fifteen paise. Alexander remembered that the cost of a standard blank book in the empire was twenty-eight paise. He did not expect that it would be so expensive here.
Cheap.
Alexander paid and handed the book to Heath, "Next time you want to buy something, don't scream around. Just go up and pay."
"Looking at your appearance, is there something fishy about that book? But meeting is fate, and the same is true for books." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he continued: "There are also first-level to fifth-level spells that can be copied here, yes
It’s an old magician’s spell book, and if you just copy it, you’ll only get twenty linseys.”
"Well...you don't need to pay more." Alexander wiped the cold sweat on his head.
"I know." Heath asked for the names of those spells. He obviously had an idea. The shop owner was not only very knowledgeable but also good at business. No wonder he could open a bookstore in such a good location.
Chester was somewhat happy to get the book he wanted, but there was no exaggerated change like when Heath first got it. However, including Heath, the shop owner and one of the customers, these three magicians all noticed Chester.
The magic power in the body skyrocketed.
"You are really a lucky boy. He was selected by the magic book for the first time." Alexander heard the shop owner turn his back and walked aside to mutter, and he must have a look of great loss on his face.
Although the shop owner was very dissatisfied, he had no intention of doing anything. On the contrary, the customer looked very regretful, because Chester did not come in to buy books by himself, but he was probably attracted by his talent.
