The dark elves are very troublesome, but what is more troublesome than the dark elves is the prejudice of the world.
In front of the carriage team was a crowd that had gathered. When the sword-wielding Royal Knight of Bayer asked me, I frowned.
"Is it Victoria or Diana? Didn't I tell them not to go out for the time being?"
When I heard about dark elves, I naturally thought of the two people at home, and to avoid trouble, I didn't let them leave the house.
But neither Victoria nor Diana were so obedient. The urban management team had also committed collective violations before. Thinking that they had caused trouble again, I immediately became a little annoyed.
"It's really troublesome, dark elf..."
It is difficult to correct people's prejudices and habits, especially in most parts of the world where information and transportation are extremely inconvenient. Once concepts and common sense are formed, they cannot be changed. In a remote area, there were still some three or four hundred years ago.
Things happen in the dynastic calendar from time to time.
Now, even though Rose has fallen, it does not mean that the dark elf race has been completely cleansed. The attitude of most human kingdoms towards dark elves and devils is still the same - if they are caught, they will be burned to death and then collect evidence of the crime.
And if it were other regions, whether it was Oran or Northland, they would at least give me a face, but here...
"what happened."
Let the knight clear the way and push through the crowded crowd, and as expected, he saw black skin.
"Diane...huh? Who are you?"
Okay, it seems that I was biased once. The person who was being surrounded was a strange male dark elf. His gray-black skin was covered with minor burns. Obviously, he did not perform a moonlight ceremony.
He fell to the ground and seemed unable to move.
"...I...I just want to live in seclusion in this city, I haven't done anything!"
But obviously, his plea for mercy was regarded as sophistry, and the citizens holding long forks looked at him with fear and disgust. In the distance, there were naughty children throwing stones at him, and some people were hesitant to try.
Throw the torch on him.
He does not have the emblem of Rose on his body, nor does he have the emblem of any good god. If he had not hidden his faith, he would be a rare unbeliever elf.
"I saw him refining poison in a small wooden house, and he actually dared to sell poison everywhere. If he forgets to bring his evil magic mask, we will be fooled by him again!"
A young man with brown hair and freckles pointed at him and roared.
"...That's just a potion for treating injuries. Haven't you used it before? You even praised the potion for its very good effect before."
It seems that this dark elf has really succeeded in settling down in this city, but somehow he still leaked the truth.
"Yes, but you didn't mention those evil potions. Although I cured my injuries, I had diarrhea for three days and was extremely weak. You are using evil potions that overdraft my life. Bah! I thought you were there before.
He is a good person, but I am really blind!"
The strong man looked back with a look of shame on his face.
"I have lived in this city for ten years and I have done nothing! If I had done anything..."
It was bad as soon as he said these words. Previously, some people were just ignoring it, but now they heard that the dark elves have actually lived here for ten years. Thinking that the evil dark elves have been around for such a long time, the scene immediately became boiling.
Got up.
"...No wonder there are so many missing cases in this neighborhood. They are all used as guinea pigs by this black man."
"I mean there have been so many thefts recently, maybe he's the one who broke into the house."
"...Is it possible that my inability to give birth to a child is due to this evil elf's vicious witchcraft?"
It seems absurd, but in a sense, this is the reality of this era, and even in a world with extremely advanced technological civilization, in the Middle Ages, it was actually similar to this.
A certain child was said to have been cursed. In the end, he was blamed for the birth of a deformed pig in the village. This is the result of prejudice and ignorance.
"...If that child is Bei Feng, then he really isn't being blamed."
"... Don't say it, I also thought of this possibility. Forget it, I'd better not criticize him, it's so pitiful. I asked him, and he said he was not interested in pigs."
"You actually asked him, but do you believe what he said? He also said that he is a normal person... By the way, if we continue watching the show and chatting like this, this guy seems to be beaten to death."
At this time, I don't know who made the first move, and the result was a swarm of iron forks and stones. If the dark elf didn't have two brushes, he would have died.
"No, this guy didn't fight back. Does he really want to die?"
The will of the strong flows through the blood, and just anger can make ordinary people feel fear. This is a common feature of gold-level martial arts. It is not surprising that this dark elf is a gold-level warrior, since he was born ten years ago
You have all come here, so if you can live on the ground for ten years, you are obviously not a rookie.
But what makes people a little strange is that this guy actually didn't fight back or run away after being beaten, which makes people wonder how he can survive in the surface world.
After a brief look, I was sure that someone had not set a trap for me, so I decided to intervene, but...
"Please give way, please give way."
Pushing through the crowded crowd, a rather handsome young man in fine clothes came in. His red hair was neatly combed. The stab wounds on his face not only did not disfigure him, but gave him a more heroic aura.
Judging from his momentum, his personal strength is probably between peak silver and quasi-gold. Considering his age of less than thirty-five, he is already considered a genius among humans.
He wore gorgeous gold armor that was more decorative than actual combat, and at his waist was an epic magic weapon, and behind him were two followers who were at least Silver level.
"Twenty-seventh prince!"
"It's His Highness Mills!"
Judging from the surrounding reactions, the person who took the initiative to participate was actually a prince.
Judging from the reactions from those around him, his reputation is still very high. At least the citizens of this business district give him a lot of face.
Of course, since I am acting as a diplomat, I have done enough homework beforehand. Although this Mills ranks low among the brothers and quite low-key among the princes, he is actually one of the top five heirs.
In the current infighting among the princes, some people have reached out to the army controlled by the royal family, and some people's policies are in favor of big businessmen, but naturally the majority are colluding with outside big nobles, and Mills is a good one among them.
As expected, he was decorated by Oros personally and adopted as his adopted son for his outstanding achievements on the battlefield in his early years.
Unlike the other brothers who desperately took the upper-class route to consolidate their influence, he took the "people-friendly route" due to his natural advantage of having a military background. He often appeared in downtown areas, or as a paladin (Ranger).
Generally judging villains, or as in legendary stories, heroes like princes save beauties, fight against unscrupulous businessmen, and many of his personal legendary deeds are included in the common repertoire of street bards.
Yes, legendary deeds. This is not an underground world full of legends. A gold master who is less than forty years old has already done heroic deeds that are praised by the world. There are even citizens organizing parades and petitions for him.
Oros made him the crown prince.
But in my opinion, no. In the eyes of many powerful people, Mills is not as innocent as he appears. Those bards responsible for touting have more or less received sponsorship, and the petitioner's relatives are in Mills.
Si's subordinates do their work.
The most important thing is how lucky you need to be able to be a hero and save the beauty every time, and to suddenly see through everything and distort the situation of the battle every time when the conspiracy is about to be completed.
"If he didn't arrange it himself, he has a lot of spies all over the city, waiting for events to happen all the time, ready to build up his reputation."
Considering that other princes will not watch him arrange fake games to increase his popularity, I still prefer the option of having a lot of spies under him, and looking at the situation, it seems that this time he is here to increase his reputation.
"...What do you think he will do?"
"Judging from his information, I always thought of a pure politician, and a pure politician never does what he wants to do, but what the people expect him to say, so that he can gain support and be in power."
"Then, he will..."
"Well, now that the people want to execute this dark elf, how could he not do such a simple thing to gain prestige? Maybe tomorrow we can hear the bard singing 'The prince kills the dark elf in anger'."
"It's really too much. Shouldn't everything be tried in accordance with procedures under normal circumstances?"
"Haha, do you think politicians are normal people?"
But at this time, the Bayer knights who were guarding us just watched indifferently. They only belonged to the royal family and looked at the scene in front of them with indifference, as if they had nothing to do with them. I seemed to be able to see Oros's attitude towards the princes.
But as expected, it was the prince Mills holding a sword and shouting.
"Everyone, stay back and be careful of the evil spells of the dark elves!"
Then the enchanted light shone on the sword, and it seemed that Mills was really going to kill the dark elf angrily. But strangely, until this moment, the dark elf gritted his teeth and threw himself on the ground, still not intending to escape.
At this point, the farce has become very boring. Compared to the script of "the prince angrily kills the dark elf", I seem to prefer the version of "the politician and prince accidentally hit the iron plate and was beaten severely".
And when I was about to take action, another roar interrupted my action... Why did I say again?
"Spell; Convict! Break the crime!"
Three cloaked men suddenly jumped in front of Mills from the roof over there. One roared and faced Mills with a thick-backed knife, while the other ran to use magic, as if intending to heal the injured dark elf, and
The last cloaked man just glared at the surrounding audience with his eyes, using only his power to immobilize the prince's followers, causing the people around him to instinctively retreat to make way.
"Is it impossible to move under the pressure of the Silver level? At least two levels higher than the Silver level, an unknown Saint-level powerhouse?"
At this time, even the onlookers of the Bayer Royal Knights were moved.
And to me, what I see in front of me is such a familiar combo of the Judgment Knight, such a familiar coordination, and it actually has the power of a strong person above the holy level... Yawen, Diana, Victoria, you really sneaked away.
Out!
But at this time, it is not the time to cause trouble for them. In a sense, it is more convenient for them to do this job by concealing their identity, and they also know the severity and how to deal with it.
At least. At this moment, that's what I think. I also quietly took a step back. With Diana, a newly advanced holy anti-paladin, no one can keep them, and I am relatively confident about Diana's work.
.
But, sometimes, people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations, and accidents always happen suddenly in places that no one expects...
[Magic Weapon: Dragon Slaying Knife]
[Attack power: 0-35. Quality: Epic]
[Special effects are indestructible: 100% direct cutting of weapons below the elite level, 50% chance of cutting off fine level weapons. 30% chance of directly cutting off epic level weapons. 1% chance of cutting off weapons below the artifact level]
[Special effects are fatal with brilliance: Yes, it is brilliance that kills, not dazzling with brilliance. With this knife, you will become the protagonist in the eyes of the world, um, a tragic protagonist. The holder's luck value will be reduced by 10, and the charm value will be increased by 10. If
If you are a male with blond hair and blue eyes, you will get an additional discount of 10.】
[Special effects: Madness: 1% chance of falling into a violent state of disowning relatives. At this time, priority will be given to targeting and killing relatives. 】
[There is a string of yellow characters on the hilt of the knife: In ancient legends, this was once a magical weapon that symbolized status, 'The Supreme of the Martial Arts. The sword slays the dragon'. But now, it has a new interpretation... The sword slays the dragon, click
Just give it away.]
There is no doubt that this is a good knife, but because of the disgusting negative effects that will turn the holder into a madman, only Yawen, who is naturally extremely resistant to madness, can use it, and she has always regarded it as her own.
baby.
Anyone who encounters this knife for the first time and does not know its special effects will suffer a loss, but the current captain of the urban management brigade who has this knife is enough to leapfrog the challenge.
Perhaps because he has done too many bad things, Mills's luck is really bad. The long sword "Anxiu's Gift" in his hand has exceeded the limit of epic, which means that Yawen's chance of cutting it off is only about 1% to 3%.
About %, but it happened to be triggered at this moment!
"clang!"
In the sword duel, the first cut triggered the cutting effect, so the epic weapon in his hand was simply broken, and the thick blade slashed towards his face.
After discovering this situation, Yawen quickly stopped her action. After all, she was only saving people and did not want to kill the prince. But before taking action, as an excellent trial knight, she used "Spell: Conviction" and "
The golden combination of "Slaying Sin Strike".
The former will judge the subject's behavior for the last two hours. If the subject commits a crime, there will be a red light representing the sin. The greater the crime, the redder the color. The latter will attach the power of law to the sword body.
Above, attacking a sinner, the deeper the crime, the higher the damage.
I don't know what Mills did in the past two hours, but the purple-like blood red proved that he had definitely just committed a heinous crime, but at this time, he was struck by the Judgment Knight's killing blow.
If the crime-killing strike strikes an innocent target, it only requires a slight push, and the blade will even dull automatically. However, if it is a brutal villain, it is an indestructible killing move.
At this time, Yawen couldn't stop even if she wanted to. The law was ruthless. Since the Judgment Knight who used the Sin-killing Strike was the judge representing the law, and since the "Spell: Judgment" had marked out the heinous sinners,
How could the crime-breaking strike be stopped by the law enforcer's personal will?
As a result, the silver sword light turned into a moon arc and fell towards Mills' face. If it was struck, it would definitely be severed in two.
And Mills' real guard has already taken action. The royal knights will not watch the prince being killed in front of them. Mills has also activated his own life-saving magic props. As long as he blocks the blow or helps catch up.
, he still has a way to survive.
However, in order to make the prince's attendants stop, Diana used her newly acquired abilities.
[Halo ability: Anti-Holy Barrier, summons a barrier made of will, expelling the magic and divine effects in it. The effect of the barrier will be determined by the strength gap between the user and the target, and the duration is medium. 】
And this barrier is between the helper and Mills.
At this moment, the helpers turned into mortals and took a step slower. Mills's protective props lit up and then went out. The silver power of law on the dragon-slaying knife that was originally outside the barrier dimmed a little, but it still cut.
Go down.
"Click."
The blade fell to the ground and broke in two, blood surged wildly, the ground was dyed red, and the man died with his eyes open.
Well, having said all that, in fact, in the eyes of ordinary people, only one thing happened - the cloaked man suddenly jumped out and chopped off the respected prince Mills into two pieces of meat!
"assassin!"
"Assassin! Someone killed His Highness Mills!"
In the panic, the strong wind rolled up the edge of the cloak, revealing the shocked black skin under Yawen's cloak.
"Help! The dark elf killed His Highness."
"The dark elf I recognized! That knife! It was the guard of the ambassador from the country of mages! It was the people from the country of mages who killed His Highness the Prince."
At this moment, Yawen was dumbfounded, Diana was dumbfounded, Victoria was dumbfounded, the royal knights were dumbfounded, and even I was dumbfounded.
I heard a sentence before, but it kept echoing in my mind for no reason.
“When Archduke Ferdinand and his wife, the Crown Prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, were assassinated, no one could have imagined that this purely unexpected event, the assassination of the unpopular prince of this small country, would actually become the trigger for a world war that swept across Europe.
So!"
"Damn it! Yawen, you lucky-e stupid girl! This time the fun is great!" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
