It is precisely because of the sudden absence of Sandro, the "original protagonist", that Liu Yifei's "perfect plan" has such a big flaw... Even Liu Yifei did not dare to pass on some dirty information to Rod Ha for a while.
Special body clinging——
In any case, this person is now Queen Catherine's "matchmaker" and is so highly regarded by King Geffenhart that he is the most powerful being in Harmondale with a "foreigner" background!
There is no absolute evidence. If you dare to bite this person, you are seeking death...
So now facing Adelek's venting, can't Liu Yifei have no choice but to be submissive and pretend to be a grandson?
Not bad~
At least after the battle of the Green Field Leader, Geralt's own value in Edric's heart has been much higher... Although there have been some shady guys lately who have been secretly talking about something or other, but at least until absolute evidence appears,
Adric himself didn't quite believe in Geralt's position.
After the earliest doubts like this appeared, Edric once again secretly sent his confidants to sort out Geralt's background information, and even started to search for the caravans where he had been, in order to more perfectly eliminate all suspicions.
.
It is precisely because he personally took over and directed all of this that Edric does not believe that Geralt is a spy sent by Eli. To put it bluntly, if Eli is willing to use Geralt's talent,
If "outsiders" are deployed as spies in other countries, how exaggerated will their country's core talent pool be?
Even in Eli itself, it would be impossible for an ordinary young elf under twenty years old to perform like Geralt now, right?
Therefore, although Edric seemed extremely angry, he was more blaming Liu Yifei for "disobeying orders" during this operation - after all, this is the first priority for any "soldier"!!
In addition, although Liu Yifei's subsequent operations in the Green Field were relatively smooth, and he fought beautifully in several tough battles...but his meager strength dared to invade the terrifying battlefield of legendary heroes, and he did not put his own safety at all.
The madness in his eyes.
Especially when I heard that this kid actually once broke into the enemy's stronghold alone before the formation...
For a "commander" who coordinates the overall situation and is responsible for the success or failure of the soldiers of the three armies, his performance is even more childish~
It's no wonder that Edric took the opportunity to hit the other party hard...
Both admonished and scolded, Liu Yifei was scolded by the black-faced god, and he felt like he was back in middle school when the dean of students grabbed his pigtails... But his mentality must be much more detached at the moment -
After all, this is just a virtual game, isn’t it? On the surface, you pretend to be submissive, but in your heart, you don’t really think so...
Seeing that Edric's anger had subsided a little, Liu Yifei's heart moved and he quickly wanted to finalize the most critical thing in the follow-up: "... Chief Instructor, you are right! I do have a lot of considerations for this patrol.
I was not careful and important things were not done well, and I was extremely frightened and uneasy~
It's just...it's just that we have agreed to go out for internship in advance...does it still count?"
"Huh? What's the matter? You haven't been back for a day, and you can't stay any longer? Why, after going to the north for a while, did your heart really turn wild?!"
Adeleke was so surprised that Liu Yifei laughed angrily. He just saw that the other party was willing to be beaten and scolded, so he thought he had listened to his warning... Now look, this kid didn't take it to heart at all!
Seeing that the black-faced god was about to go berserk again, Liu Yifei quickly comforted him: "You are wronged, Mr. Chief Instructor! If possible, of course I am willing to stay in the training camp to hone my skills!
Especially when I went to the northern border this time, I saw the hard work of the grassroots soldiers in the border army. They have little military resources and lack of ordnance. They may have to risk their lives when they go out to patrol...
Compared with them, the training camp really provides us with great convenience!
It's just... Your Excellency, didn't you say before that the royal capital had some complaints about my 'making independent decisions' in the north this time?
If someone continues to attack me on this basis, sir, you can't always protect me... Whether it's simply to show others, or as a punishment for my previous reckless actions, I think you can continue to protect me.
Neither is a suitable choice within a training camp.
Didn't they say that I have something to do with the elves in Eli?
Then... how about you just send me to a place where there are no elves to train for a period of time?
I also want to prevent some unscrupulous guys from coming to the training camp because of my problems..."
"Huh~~ It's rare that you still have the time to think about the training camp...
But do you think that in the training camp you can’t even do such small things as distinguishing right from wrong and protecting the interests of your own family?!”
It sounded like a question, but the rumbling power on Edric's body suddenly rose, and a dangerous cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Although there are some useless people talking about it, your actions in the north have solved some hidden dangers in the kingdom in a substantial sense, and it has greatly shocked the power of our Griffin Kingdom!
Both emotionally and rationally, these are all merits that deserve praise~
Although some things are indeed taboo for some people, if you want to completely deny the benefits of my bodyguard based on gossip... Humph! Is my bodyguard just a weakling that can be bullied by others!?"
【Tsk~】
After listening to Edric's words, Liu Yifei didn't feel any joy at "finding a backer". Instead, he only felt troublesome - seeing what the chief instructor meant... Could it be that he was planning to protect himself and not let him out?
This is by no means good news for Liu Yifei!
Although there are huge benefits and opportunities if you dig carefully in Standwick, there is one thing that Liu Yifei knows very well, that is, there are two things that he will never get in this land of the royal capital - "Private secrets"
"Army" and "power"...
These two things actually mean the same thing in a sense, that is, "human power" other than Liu Yifei himself!
The water at Standwick is really too deep, openly, privately, officially, among the people... Don't even forget the "cultists" that Liu Yifei took over before!
Even the demons of Ofer hide a group of unidentified "believers" in the royal capital of Erathia. One can imagine how many entanglements and dangers are hidden in this seemingly bright and prosperous human city~
With Liu Yifei's current strength and background...
It's easy to make some small changes to spend some pocket money, or to gather a small number of first- and second-level warriors, but this scale will inevitably be stuck below a hundred people! If you want to develop further, you will inevitably encounter a mountain of pressure, and you will definitely be exposed to countless people.
In the vision of the big man in the shadows!
Not to mention that not long after, Standwick itself was in danger of falling!
It can be said that in Liu Yifei's eyes now, the royal capital is a sinking ship. The more people are placed in it, the better the power will develop, and the losses will be more severe in the future!
The idea of getting a vote and leaving had already been made up before Liu Yifei came back~
It happened that the king had rumors that he was having an affair with an elf, so Liu Yifei wanted to take advantage of this evil trend and simply demean himself and "exile" him to another place. This would also allow him to go along with the wishes of some people so that he would receive less attention.
…
It's a pity that Liu Yifei planned well, but he got stuck at the first level - Adlik actually wanted to protect him!!
Perhaps Liu Yifei's hesitant reaction was too obvious, so Edric glanced at him casually, and finally snorted coldly and said: "You are on your own territory now, why are you playing with me?
If you have any ideas, just be honest!
Now you are the treasure of my bodyguard. Although your work was not reliable before...but the 'Awakening Potion' thing was indeed done beautifully! As long as it is verified by the Royal Mage Group in the future, you will really be for us now.
The military has won a considerable advantage...
With this merit, if you really have any reasonable demands...why, am I just such an unreasonable person? Or do you think you can't even trust your own family?"
Edric's last rhetorical question was a bit heartbreaking. Although Liu Yifei also understood that the other party was just scaring him, if he really acted indifferently, his impression in the other party's mind would probably be damaged, so he immediately pretended to be sincere and frightened.
: "I don't dare! It's absolutely not the case! In fact... Hey, okay, then my subordinate will be brave enough to tell you!
In fact, after this melee in the green field, I just deeply realized the low level of my own strength...
Jenny, Heath, Strong, Timiusius, Crane...
Not to mention these famous figures, it is Lathander's Knight of Waters... This kind of person I have never heard of in the royal capital. He is much better than me now.
~
By staying in the Guard Army training camp, I can certainly enjoy the best conditions, receive the most attentive guidance from all the instructors, and have ample room for growth...
But Lady Jenny also told me before that actual combat is the place where people are truly tested and their strength is tested!
Only in the actual battle of life and death can we eliminate the essentials, realize some of our own shortcomings, and do our best to improve and improve...otherwise, life is the only price we can pay~
I... I just want to push myself a little more, so that I can experience Lady Jenny in a more realistic environment and find a way to quickly break through the current bottleneck of my strength..."
Liu Yifei's eloquent talk in this passage has really brought his acting skills to the peak! What he said was sincere and touching~
The black-faced god opposite him was silent for a moment and did not refute Liu Yifei's words...
In Edric's office, the sunlight was silent and bright, covering the young man's shoulders, making the middle-aged man who was looking at him feel slightly dazzling.
Or maybe this is the impulse of young people~
Once upon a time, that was also his most passionate time...
