Suldak's prejudice against college students may have been deeply rooted in his bones, and his attitude toward newcomers was extremely unfriendly.
This made Karl a little worried, and he had to remind him solemnly: "Dak, you can carry out rigorous training for these young knights who have just joined the guard camp, but the most important thing is to pay attention to their safety.
The deserted land was originally designed to avoid military service. Since you can use the high-level connections of the guard camp to get people in, they are some of the leading figures in Helensa City. You don’t need to make everyone love you, but at least you can’t let everyone love you.
Everyone hates you..."
Eating crispy salted cashews, Suldak and Karl chatted a lot.
"You actually got the official designation of the cavalry battalion, and you plan to carry out defense changes with Marquis Luther's legion in the spring. This is really good. Maybe you will be a first-class baron when you come back from the Bailin plane!
"Karl heard that Surdak already had the qualifications to build a private army and was considered a small lord in Bena Province. He looked at Surdak in surprise.
Suldak shrugged and said nothing.
This matter was only obtained with the support of Marquis Luther, and there was really nothing to show off. Suldak suddenly felt that he was no different from the tax collector Byrd who was a soft-boiled man.
Tax Collector Byrd interjected from the side and asked: "Dak, are your cavalry battalions ready? I mean cavalry, war horses, armor and supplies."
"We are not ready yet. Cavalry and horses are not easy to obtain..." Surdak said.
The plump tavern proprietress walked through the crowd and walked to Karl. She was wearing a very decent long dress and almost whispered a few words into Karl's ear.
Karl glanced in the direction of the bar, and saw that Mrs. Mariana was lying on the bar and fell asleep.
Karl carried the drunken Lady Mariana back to the room upstairs in the tavern, and Lady Mariana's maid followed behind, holding up her long skirt.
Tax Collector Byrd and Miss Hoyle also left together after getting tipsy.
Only Surdak and Lance were left, and Surdak asked: "How can I increase the affinity of magic elements?"
Lance was picking up the wine glass and taking a sip of wine. His eyes fell on the bulging breasts of the ale girl in the corner. When he heard Suldak's question, he didn't react for a while and asked in surprise: "Ah! What are you doing?
Want to ask this?"
Surdak pondered for a moment before saying: "There is a friend who has awakened the fire element in his body, but his affinity to the fire element is not enough."
Lance frowned, put down his wine glass, waved to the bartender, and said to Suldak: "This is a troublesome matter. If the affinity of the fire element cannot be raised, if the fire element cannot
Completely integrated with the body, it will continue to burn the body. As a fire magician, I can often feel this pain."
The wine girl walked over to Lance.
Lance reached out and picked up two large glasses of ale from her tray, and stuffed a shiny silver coin into her plump chest, causing the ale girl to scream in surprise, holding the wooden tray and quickly moved away, but she turned her head.
At this moment, he gave Lance a wink.
"But... for us magicians, the way to solve this problem is actually very simple." Lance pushed a glass of ale in front of Suldak and said: "The first way is to use fire magic frequently.
Once the mana in your own magic pool is consumed below the horizontal line, it will not affect your body."
"What about the second method?" Surdak asked.
"The second way is to increase the affinity of the fire element through meditation. This is a persistent process, and the effect will not be too obvious every day. Only over time can you realize the benefits of meditation." Lance said.
Then he added: "The third way is to improve one's own resistance through external substances, such as fire-resistant potions, powerful troll potions, vitality potions, etc. Of course, any magic potion is now very expensive on the market.
Expensive. You can also improve your physical condition by eating the flesh and blood of fire monsters."
Only then did Surdak realize that he came to Helensa to look for salamanders because he wanted to solve his own troubles.
"Are you saying that eating some salamander meat will make things better in this situation?" Surdak 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 Bandit, do you have any good candidates you can recommend to me?"
Lance asked in surprise: "Are you finally ready to take action against those desert bandits?"
Suldak nodded and simply said: "They have been having a bit of trouble lately."
Lance patted his forehead and said with some worry: "In such a cold weather, I always have to ride a magic harpoon to fly around in the sky for nothing. Only those magic apprentices with little savings are willing to do this kind of drudgery, but they have nothing."
Savings, many magic apprentices can't afford magic pots, I can help you ask people around me."
The two chatted for a while before leaving the tavern.
Lance put his arm around the slender waist of the bartender, got into a magic caravan on the side of the road, and ran away quickly, leaving Surdak alone at the door of the tavern.
It is estimated that Lance will not inquire about which magic apprentice is willing to accept this task tonight. Suldak sighed softly and thought about whether he should try his luck at the Magic Guild in the city.
This pub is not far from the Garden Square, and there are not many people on the street at night.
The cold wind blows on the face, and the exposed skin will soon turn red from the cold.
Surdak planned to walk back to the hotel and explain tomorrow's affairs to Aphrodite. If he did not need to stay in Helensa City, he would use the Void Gate to return to Wall Village. The bed at home was far better than
The bed in the hotel was warmer.
…
Vilu climbed over the wall outside the hotel, stretched out his hand and threw the hook to the roof of the four-story building. He stretched out his hand vigorously like a gecko and climbed onto the roof, standing on the terrace facing the cold night breeze.
The biting cold wind could not penetrate the leather armor on his body.
He didn't know why the fire element in his body was weakened, or why his body became stronger, but in short, he felt better than ever before.
I even feel that as long as I calm down, I am very likely to open the door in the sea of spiritual consciousness and let myself reach another level. The people of the Green Empire like to call those people the second-level powerhouses.
It's just that there is an obsession in his heart that prevents him from settling down. He is an eagle eye and a professional demon hunter. He knows how to find his target.
Looking for that faint aura, Weiru chased him here.
He stood quietly on the terrace, thinking about how to tactfully wake up the people in the room.
He walked to the wooden door of the terrace. He originally wanted to reach out and knock on the door in front of him, but at this moment, he suddenly felt as if something was staring at him in the darkness. He seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly turned his head towards the glass window beside him.
Looking over, he 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 had been hit hard by a dwarf's craftsman's hammer.
one time.
The body standing at the door staggered, but he did not fall while holding his hand on his heart.
The door on the terrace was opened by a woman. The woman's face was wearing a mithril mask. The next second she appeared in front of him, the mithril mask was lifted by the woman, revealing the exquisite 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. He even forgot where he came from and where he was going.
, he even forgot where he was...
In the few seconds when Viru's body was stiff, Aphrodite concentrated almost all the magic power in her eyes, and she was 'charming' Viru.
Night was originally her home field.
Although she could feel a dangerous smell in Viru's body, she still decided to give it a try. She didn't even use 'Sleeping Cloud' or 'Hypnosis', nor did she think about dragging Viru into the illusion.
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 undergone targeted training in 'hypnosis', 'charm', 'soul shock', 'fear', 'psychic scream', 'death stare', etc. His spiritual consciousness may not be
He is more powerful than others, but because of a 'calm pendant' hanging around his neck, he can restrain many negative black magics. Although Aphrodite did 'charm' him the moment she appeared, that was just
It's a matter of a moment.
Soon he struggled out of the endless void. He seized this rare opportunity, stood in front of Aphrodite, and drew the scorching bow in his hand. A fine steel arrow was placed on the bow string. As soon as he let go,
That steel arrow would pierce Aphrodite's heart.
And Aphrodite had a shiny black dagger in her hand, which happened to be placed on Velu's throat.
The two were in a stalemate, and neither of them made any move.
…
Surdak pushed open the door and found that the room was dark and there was no response. His heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
He knew that there must be something going on in the room. The succubus was usually very alert, which had a lot to do with the harsh environment of hell she lived in all year round. In hell, if she didn't know how to protect herself more effectively, she might not even be able to protect herself.
I don’t know how he died.
Surdak knew in his heart that Aphrodite could not make any response when he pushed the door open.
There was no light in the room. He took a few steps into the room and saw that the wooden door of the terrace was open. The cold wind was blowing in from the outside. The two people on the terrace were in a stalemate unwilling to give in. Suldak quickly
He strode forward and immediately put his hand on Vilu's back.
"Relax, don't hurt her." Surdak reminded Vilu, with a hint of warning in his tone.
Viru simply put down the scorching bow in his hand, and Aphrodite also took the opportunity to put away the dagger on his neck, staring coldly at Viru not to be outdone.
Surdak lit the wall lamp in the room and said to Vilu on the terrace: "Come in and sit for a while."
Weiru was silent for a while, then raised his head and said to Suldak: "She smells like a demon!"
Surdak asked the succubus to come into the room, and stood at the door of the terrace and said to Veru: "Aphrodite is a succubus, but she rebelled against the demons and is now a member of my combat team."
Viru walked into the attic room on the top floor of the hotel, ignored the succubus Aphrodite, and directly asked Surdak: "Do you still remember me?"
"I don't remember, including many things in the past." Suldak pulled up a chair and said with an extremely calm expression.
Weiru refused to give up and reminded Surdak: "The Storm Chaser adventure group that the two of us created together?"
Then he said: "The enemy we are chasing?"
Continue: "Our hometown..."
He saw that Surdak was still indifferent, with no evasion or concession in his eyes, which caused his newly sprouted bud of hope to shrink back into the soil, and he stared at Surdak with a look of regret.
The sad look in Surdak's eyes towards Vilu made his whole body goosebumps. He said in a deep voice: "I don't even remember. I forgot a lot of things..."
"When I woke up, a group of heavy armored infantry regiment soldiers carried me back from a pile of dead people on the front battlefield of the forest farm in Gandaur Mountains, Handanar County, Warsaw plane. I stayed there to follow them.
We fought together until they were completely wiped out in the Battle of Moyunling. I came here to fulfill one of my promises."
Vilu could feel that what Surdak said was true.
He sat down dejectedly and looked at the strange yet familiar northern man in front of him...
Weiru told the reporter why Surdak was lying on the battlefield at the Gandaer Mountain Forest Farm.
"We were searching for the Magician of Montetroya all over the world at that time. Do you remember the Magician of Montetroya? Jonbach!" Viru suddenly asked.
Suldak shook his head without hesitation.
Weiru sighed and said: "That is our common enemy. We are looking for him all over the world, thinking that one day we can kill him on the spot. With our own means, we cannot sneak into every plane.
So we found the largest mercenary group in Sloit Province, followed the mercenary group to perform missions all over the world, and participated in various forms of mercenary battles, but later we both performed two different missions.
When I came back from the Luo Qi plane, I heard them say that you died in the war in the Warsaw plane, and there were no bones left..."
"Later I also left that adventure group and just traveled around the world without any destination."
Weilu only talked about some things about the two of them joining the mercenary group. It felt like he was still avoiding something, but Surdak couldn't remember this memory.
"Are you Hawkeye?" Suldak couldn't help but ask.
"What?" Weiru looked at him doubtfully.
Surdak touched his nose, smiled sheepishly, and said, "If so, I would like to ask you for a favor."
