Minguang was the first one to appear, which brought the atmosphere to a climax. In addition to Mr. Mourinho who had just taken his seat, even Wei An Dashan and the beautiful snake mentor were all stunned.
Based on their understanding of Fei Lengcui's strength, they shouldn't have been so surprised, but they were still shocked.
They finally understood one thing - Fei Lengcui's strength, even after just one night, they should not rest on their previous evaluations.
Twenty goblin warriors equipped with three layers of fine iron tower shields and carrying giant blood-red scythes on their backs, holding a banner that read "We are gray slave warriors", filed out of the steps, already concealing Fei Lengcui's strength.
And showed it arrogantly.
When Goode appeared with a Misha badge on his chest and a suit of platinum Misori armor, the atmosphere reached the melting point. All the Templars immediately stood up and expressed their respect to the Honorable Templar.
Although the honorary knight is just an honorary title, obtaining this title means that you have followed a powerful priest and achieved extremely noble feats.
Weiheizi and Gotanni were extremely depressed, but no matter how familiar and close they were, they had to follow the rules now.
Pan Shuai stretched out his arms and made a fascist gesture to salute all the Templars.
The eyes of Mr. Mourinho's followers tightened a bit, and there was a strong flavor of provocation in the eyes directed at Pan Shuai and the bugbear slave warriors. When a strong man meets a strong man, in addition to showing sympathy for each other,
More of an unconvinced look.
This provocation turned into a confrontation when the Panda Warriors and Mastiff Warriors appeared, and Monsignor Mourinho's followers recognized the San Francisco Imperial Guard Silver Pedestal Warrior Earth Demon Resistance Armor.
When the hippo poet appeared, this regard turned into surprise and anger.
Hippo poets wear black and white bear skin scarves around their necks. These scarves are cut off from whole bears. There is also a bear head hanging on it. Each bear skin has a hollow bear eye filled with gems.
——Only the berserkers in Tel Aviv, a country of ice and snow, can do this. Adult berserkers can only leave their hometown after killing a giant bear with their bare hands. Only by becoming a slayer of hundreds can they be invisible, including sitting on a bear skin.
kind of sign.
The breath of the berserkers under Mr. Mourinho has become thicker. Once the berserkers enter the madness, it is a terrible thing. The elf priestess quickly sprinkled the "light of calm".
The appearance of the mammoth Hercules can even make the Berserkers sober up more than the "Calm Light".
Even the frost-armored giants with ice-like faces melted away the indifference on their faces because of the appearance of the mammoth Hercules. The figures of these mammoth Hercules were really too strong. They were taller than ordinary Orephan warriors.
With one blade, even the Frost Giants are half a head shorter than them, and they are also stronger and more powerful. Each of them has seven diamond machetes that emit an aggressive light. Even if they are not unsheathed, the battle-hardened warriors can only
Just take a look at the shape of the scabbard to realize how fierce this type of machete is.
There are no weapons like knives in the human world of the Aegean continent. There are only scimitars used by some Behemoth warriors and humans in the Taklamago Desert. However, their scimitars can only be compared with the long knives of the mammoth Hercules.
Think of it as a dagger or a child's toy.
If these fighting forces can still allow Mr. Mourinho's followers to maintain a certain degree of reserve, the appearance of Fei Gao, the Baleno warrior, undoubtedly destroyed all their expressions of defense.
The whale warrior did not carry any weapons. He appeared with his arms folded, and he regained the pride and magnanimity he should have as the chief guard of the West Asia Palace. His six-blade tall figure stood there. Everything was associated with strength.
The words popped up in everyone's mind automatically, and even Liu Zhenxuan couldn't help but change his mind. If the high red soil slope hadn't been burned into hard clay by the fire, he would have been knocked down by him from time to time.
.
If not for the whale warrior, he represents the supreme master of all warriors in the vast sea kingdom.
Then Feigao is undoubtedly the highest-level warrior among this kind of master. His long beard and the deliberately scratched crest on his breastplate can clearly prove this.
In fact, this is not important at all. Even if he is not a high-level warrior who has undergone strict martial arts training, he is already the most terrifying existence based on brute force. From the perspective of a warrior alone, the whale warrior has reached a level that is difficult to match.
Except for high-level magicians, no one else can deal with such a warrior.
Rodman, the living treasure, started to look for trouble again. This time, Rodman looked very different. His waist was stooped, and he covered his mouth with a huge handkerchief. He coughed from time to time, just like a tuberculosis ghost, and the majestic militiamen around him
A strong contrast was formed.
Many people could clearly see that when his handkerchief was spread out, there was a red blood stain on it.
Fei Luo, who kept coughing, walked directly to a table of frost-armored giants. There were only three frost-armored giants in this table. Their bodies were too huge. This table was exactly where the militiamen were sitting.
, only they need the extra-large wooden cups and the extra-large bamboo cups on the table.
"Please wake up," Fei Luo said.
A frost-armored giant was stunned for a moment, then stood up stupidly.
"Thank you." Fei Luo resisted with his big ass, squeezing the frost giant so hard that he almost fell to the ground. He sat down, not even the slightest bit sick of vomiting blood.
The expressions of all Mourinho's followers changed.
Old Liu covered his face.
He really didn't know what to say. He had cultivated the arrogance of the militiamen, and no one was allowed to show off this arrogance in front of them.
"If there are ten treasuries of strength in the world, the Feileng Cui warriors undoubtedly own the fifth treasury, and the rest will be divided among all the warriors in the world!" Mr. Mourinho laughed and solved the problem.
The proprietress Ningyu was also very smart and immediately directed the slave soldiers to move the long table up to the dining hall below.
The tense atmosphere just now suddenly relaxed.
The six scepter priests also rushed over to greet the distinguished officiant. Mr. Mourinho greeted them one by one politely. Old Liu immediately rearranged the seats and placed the six scepter priests and the three distinguished adults.
A table was arranged. Elder Andulan and him sat down again as company guests, and even the proprietress began to work as a waiter, temporarily acting as a maid.
"For the sake of the return of the insect people after ten thousand years, and for everyone's health, let's drink this cup together." The officiant raised the wine glass and took a sip in a very graceful manner.
————————————————————————“Cheers to your generosity.” Everyone raised their glasses at the same time.
Once you start eating and drinking, there is no restraint anymore. After all, many people are hungry.
"Richard, I'm here this time. I have many things to tell you." Mr. Mourinho paused and drank the wine. He couldn't help but praise: "This wine is very delicious. My chef is also a Hobbit halfling."
, but I have never tasted the taste of this kind of rum."
"Yes, yes!" The six scepter priests - Piao Tianwen - head, greatly agreed. Liu Zhenxuan couldn't help but doubt that the main reason why these guys stayed here and didn't leave was probably this, not for
What are you waiting for the officiant to inspect?
"Sir..." Liu Zhenxuan was about to say something when he was interrupted by Mourinho.
"Call me mentor."
"Teacher, the most important thing for you to come this time is..." Liu Zhenshao immediately changed his tone and asked tentatively.
"Actually, after you and Helen were successfully promoted, I planned to come and see you. There were rumors from the outside that we are already powerful geniuses. Even I thought this rumor was ridiculous at first, but now it seems that it is indeed true.
Really." There was no trace of aristocratic discrimination on Mr. Mourinho's face because Liu Zhenxuan was a pig. His kind smile was like a beacon in the dark night.
"Instructor Cui Bexi mentioned this to us before." Liu Zhenxuan smiled and nodded.
"Richard... have you ever thought about being loyal to our Swan Clan?" Mr. Mourinho pondered for a moment and asked in a very formal and sincere tone.
All the scepter priests were speechless immediately. No one thought that the officiating master was so direct. The Swan of the Smyi tribe is the lord of the Bode tribe. His status is noble, far superior to that of ordinary nobles. Although the Pig tribe belongs to the Fox tribe, in fact,
It is not surprising that many small nobles will become retainers of big nobles, because becoming a retainer of a big noble has many benefits. The simplest one is that when you are in trouble, you will have a family to support you.
It's just that as a distinguished officiant like Mr. Mourinho, it's a bit abrupt to ask directly.
Gotani stood behind her father, Mr. Mourinho, and waved desperately to Liu Zhenxuan.
This was obviously motivated by selfish motives, because it was absolutely impossible for any retainer to have a marriage relationship with the family head's people.
Cui Beixian's beautiful eyes were fixed on Liu Zhenhan for a moment.
Liu Zhenxuan pondered for a moment, smiled and shook his head.
"Why?" Mr. Mourinho asked a little strangely.
"I spread the glory of the God of War during sacrifices and am a messenger walking in the world. I don't have any ambitions." Liu Zhenxuan emphasized the word ambition with great emphasis.
When he said this, his eyes were clear, and he was speaking the truth in his heart. He really just wanted to be an ordinary Behemoth.
Cui Bexi can feel it, Ningyu and Helen can also feel it, and so can Gotani. Only one person may not be able to feel it.
"Really?" Mr. Mourinho raised his eyebrows and peeled off a prickly pear with a smile.
"I'm actually not that noble. I just want to be a landowner." Liu Zhenxuan said with a wry smile.
"Great! I have good news to tell you about making a fortune." Mr. Mourinho very elegantly peeled off the core of a prickly pear and threw it into his mouth.
Inside, while chewing the bitter sweetness, he said: "A few days ago, I sent a messenger, and in time my hippogryph rode to Dolot. As a representative of the temple of the Behemoth Kingdom, and Dolot
The Principality has reached a consensus on the original conditions. Oh... By the way... Grand Duke Dolot has passed away. The current Grand Duke is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Sherpa family."
"This is not beyond my expectation." Liu Zhenxuan nodded.
"I sent a messenger to negotiate a favorable condition with the current Grand Duchess of Dolot." Mr. Mourinho looked back at Gotani with a playful look: "The fourth princess of Dolot has not yet been born.
Leaving the cabinet is just a way to make peace. Marry Richard, the best young priest from the Bimeng Kingdom. Shocked. Liu will be your wife. In this case, our two countries will have an affinity by marriage, and we will no longer have to fight with each other...
...The San Francisco Empire has no objection to this condition. As long as they guard the gates of the Danube Wilderness, they will be fine. Marrying a little princess from a subject country is a very common thing for them. It is embarrassing anyway.
It’s just the knowledge of the royal family of Grand Duke Dolot. Besides, the relationship between you and the Pompeii Empire seems to be a bit tense. We are worried about the problems on our side."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the beauties suddenly changed. The plate in Ningyu's hand fell to the ground with a clang, shocking the Behemoths on the other tables and turning their heads to look.
"Where did Grand Duke Dolot get the fourth princess?" Liu Zhenxuan frowned.
"Before his death, Grand Duke Dolot just accepted a daughter-in-law." Mr. Mourinho wiped his long hair and said slowly.
"You can't marry anyone to me, right?" Liu Zhenxuan swung the rum in his glass with a calm face: "You should marry the princes of our kingdom."
"The truth is indeed that truth. As for the official Dolot affairs that were publicized from time to time, no human being would be stupid enough to confirm this matter. This matter is not the fourth princess who has the final say, but
It’s us and the current Grand Duchess of Dolot who have the final say! If the one who defeats their hero doesn’t marry, who else does this fourth princess want to marry?” Mr. Mourinho’s handsome face was filled with an envious smile: “I heard
The Fourth Princess Dolot is a first-class beauty, and she has finally lived up to your character. Richard, I am sincerely proud of you."
Liu Zhenxuan's eyes narrowed. Old Liu knew that the most important choice in his life had just happened.
"I have even brought you the edict of the red high priest. As a sacrifice, you should know what the marriage conferment of the red high priest means, right? The officiant saw Liu Zhenxuan's silence. He smiled and asked the people around him
The elf took a dazzling golden book."
"I'm already married." Liu Zhenxuan shrugged his shoulders without even looking at the gold book.
"It doesn't matter, this is important," the officiant said.
"Why do you say that?" Liu Zhenxuan snapped his fingers. Immediately a cigar was put to his mouth.
“The importance of this matter to the Behemoth Kingdom is self-evident.
This will bring peace to the kingdom for a long time, at least on the surface. After the marriage, commerce and trade will be opened one after another, and you will be erected as a statue and remembered by all the worshipers in the future." The officiant raised his wine glass: "
From now on, you can not be a sacrifice, but be a duke, enjoy the plumpness brought by the princess and live a peaceful life. The temple will give you an honorary title. You are so happy! Haha... Come on...
Let me toast you to this wonderful day."
"If we get married, I won't have to make sacrifices in the future? What does this mean?" Liu Zhenxuan smiled and whistled.
"After getting married, no matter who you are, you have to avoid suspicion. As a priest, of course, it is no exception. After all, the temple is also the third largest authority in the kingdom. With the title of human duke, you can appear in any authority, including the noble supervisory council and the elders.
Even the hospital would not agree. In fact, to put it bluntly, what's wrong with traveling in the forest?" Mr. Mourinho smiled.
"I have no feelings for her, and I'm not an animal. How can I marry a woman I don't know?" Liu Zhenxuan shook his head and refused: "I am already a man with a family. I'm really sorry, Mulini.
Teacher Ao, I cannot promise you this matter."
"Didn't you just say that you just want to be a rich man? What's wrong with marrying a rich wife? As for how you treat her after marriage, that's your business. Why not live a good life?" Mulini
Mr. Ao frowned slightly.
"Richard, the policy of our Behemoth Kingdom is to allow polygamy. In fact, you seem to have already done so." The beautiful snake instructor also advised.
The great shaman of Vian and the scepter priests remained silent. Only the raccoon priest Flamel, who had always been a dim-witted priest, muttered in a low voice: "Such an excellent priest. Wouldn't it be a pity if he stopped doing sacrifices?"
Liu Zhenxuan remained silent, while the beautiful women next to him looked at him with earnest and complicated eyes, as if they were looking forward to an important moment.
"I'll take it as if you agreed." Mr. Mourinho wiped his fingers on the tablecloth and chuckled: "The red priest's finger marriage is almost a divine metaphor. I can't help you not agreeing. It seems that your
The dream of becoming a rich man soon came true."
You forced me! Liu Zhenxuan was angry.
"I don't care about the title of human duke. Since this princess can marry anyone, why should she marry me? What's wrong with the red high priest? Maybe in two years I will also be the red high priest. Who will listen then?
Whose land?" Liu Zhenxuan sneered.
After hearing this, the beauties in the circle next to them let out a long breath at the same time. This breath had been held for a long time.
"My little fool..." Mr. Mourinho shook his head and laughed: "...you...take it seriously...the tutor is just joking with you. Of course, the marriage must be with our Prince Behemoth.
We're getting married. That so-called golden book is just my account book, do you really take it seriously?"
"Scared me." Liu Zhenxuan also laughed.
Elder Andulan winked at the lord across the table.
Elder Tortoiseshell has lived for thousands of years. As a person grows older, there is no way he can't understand. Liu Zhenxuan knew what his eyes meant at a glance - mine
Good lord, you have fallen into a trap where you have no choice at all!
Should I say that I can't hold my breath or should I say that this old guy is one step ahead? Liu Zhenxuan sneered in his heart.
"If I remember correctly, you will be twenty years old next year. At the age of twenty-two, you will be like the red-robed high priest of the kingdom. It is indeed a youthful ambition! When you turn twenty-two, not long after you become the scepter priest,
You are called a sacrificial legend. It seems that this title is destined to be changed by you." The chief priest of Swan looked at Liu Zhenxuan for a while with the eyes of an elder looking forward to his son's success: "When the time comes, the teacher will have to salute when he sees you.
!”
"It's not impossible..." Mr. Flamel, the somewhat upright raccoon priest, said stupidly. He was too familiar with Liu Zhenxuan's heroic image in the battle of guardianship.
"I also think it is possible. After all, Richard has made so many achievements this time, especially since I returned to the long-lost Zerg Behemoth..." Lord Deschamps, the scepter priest of the Bier tribe in the same city as Lord Flamel, also
Just to make it up, Master Deshang is a Kaola Bear.
Liu Zhenxuan almost fainted, the Bier people are all idiots. These words are really without water at all.
None of the Fox priests nearby interrupted, and just ate their food in silence.
After hearing the interruptions of these two priests, Mourinho's face was still smiling, but his eyes flickered slightly.
There was an awkward silence. Only a few beauties were serving dishes enthusiastically.
So what if he is really the high priest in red? Liu Zhenxuan couldn't help but think in his heart in this suffocating silence, this swan priest must be aggressive as soon as he comes up, right?
"In the kingdom, power is divided into three parts. You have opened the way to the Holy Mountain of Hyjal this time. Because of this fact, all the earthly temples in the kingdom have greatly increased their power. Once this news is confirmed, Lord Qi Dan
Taking over from Master Milu as the officiant, it will be a definite fact that Qian'er becomes the Great Shaman of the Northeast Province's Wei An." Priest Swan still had that signature smile on his face, breaking the deadlock: "As for you.
Richard, it is not an exaggeration to reward you for your meritorious deeds by being awarded the post of Great Shaman of Security, but I don’t need to elaborate on the specific reasons why the King and the Council of Elders will definitely not agree, anyway, you can understand."
Hearing the officiant call him Qian'er, the beautiful Snake Instructor's face immediately flushed with an intoxicating blush, and the face of Brad Gotani next to her changed slightly.
"I understand this very well. I have suffered a lot of persecution and I have experienced it." Liu Zhenxuan nodded. Hailun helped him peel a prickly pear fruit and put the white flesh into his mouth.
"Prince Richard is a bit petty. I already know what he did to you. What age is it and yet he still uses the routine of a hero saving a beauty?" Shaman Wei'an flattened his mouth in disdain.
Because of these words, Liu Zhenxuan stared at the old turtle twice, and then gently spit out the fairy fruit core in his mouth.
"The lions of the Rhine tribe have always been more headstrong, and it's normal for them to be petty-minded." Mourinho's eyes were electric, he smiled faintly, and changed the subject with one sentence: "Richard, you are a war priest now, right?"
"Yes, mentor Mourinho." Liu Zhenxuan felt that anything he said at this time was a bit redundant.
"When I was twenty years old, I became the first such young scepter priest in the history of the kingdom. So far, I have only reached the position of chief priest. It seems that this record is about to be broken." The chief priest looked at it with a smile.
Lao Liu.
"My war song ability is still too poor." Old Liu Xiang kept a low profile.
"It doesn't matter, your war song scroll, this invention fills the gap in our sacrifices. A born soul singer is indeed a born soul singer."
The cost of the war song scroll is indeed huge. Let’s not talk about the difficulty of production. Just say that the raw materials are also a big expense, and the blood of Warcraft will also coagulate. Unless it is sealed immediately after taking it out, it is necessary to capture the Warcraft alive like the blood of Warcraft.
It is ten times more difficult to capture a high-level Warcraft alive than to kill it. Naturally, the blood of Warcraft
The price is not inferior to that of magic crystals. The blood of monsters captured by Liu Zhenxuan has been used up after two guardianship battles. The more than two hundred scrolls left now are already the last batch. If you want to buy them, this is a lot of money.
of huge sums of money.
After listening to the words of the officiant, Old Liu couldn't help but nodded.
"Don't worry! I'm very confident that you two will win the top two at the Sacrifice Olympics next year. There will be absolutely no problem with you and Hailun in the position of the Scepter Sacrifice. I can guarantee this." Da Wei'an
The shaman saw Liu Zhenhan thinking deeply and quickly made peace with his beloved general. Liu Zhenhan smiled.
He could see that the Great Shaman of Wei'an might not wear the same pants as the officiant. Inferring this on the island made him feel heart-wrenching and uncomfortable.
"Richard, this time I'm here, I have a few very important things to inform you." Mr. Mourinho wiped the corners of his mouth with a white handkerchief. "A few days ago, I did send my subordinates.
The eagle beast elf knight went to Dolot as a messenger and came into contact with the Sherpa family. In the summer of the instructions of Prince Chamberlain of St. Francis, the position of the Grand Duke of Dolot has been settled, except for the marriage.
In addition, I also have a detailed understanding of the conditions you signed with them."
"When will the agreement between the Batman traitor and our Fei Lengcui be fulfilled?" Liu Zhen regretted that something was wrong in his heart.
"Although the Sherpa family ascended to the position of Grand Duke, they were defeated in both battles. The tornado mercenaries who fled back to Dolot also spread the story of Feileng Cui.
The Empire, St. Francis and Pompeii are said to be very shocked, but the Holy See is exceptionally calm. This is a good thing. St. Paul's Church has never been a peaceful sect. Before the storm, there is tranquility." Mourinho.
The Lord smiled and said: "So, in order to share your pressure, our temple will send a scepter priest to the Danube Wilderness, and you will share the horn."
"Didn't the Scepter Sacrifice already get the land? Granting the land another time, isn't it a bit unconventional?" Liu Zhenxuan still looked like an innocent boy.
"This time, I actually have a huge piece of good news that even Master Qi Dan and Qian'er have hidden. Now it's time to reveal the secret..." The words of the officiant made everyone prick up their ears.
"...
Just a few days ago, during a routine patrol in the Sunset Swamp on the southwest border of our Swan Tribe's garrison, my hippogryph knight discovered a returning Medusa tribe's snakemen hundreds of miles deep in the swamp.
, this is a tribe of three thousand people, all of them are dying and haggard." Mr. Mourinho's voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement and trembling: "It turns out that this Medusa has gone through a long journey.
The Sunset Swamp, which stretches for thousands of miles, has returned home just like Bug Behemoth!"
"Praise God!" exclaimed all the staff priests.
The beautiful Snake Instructor was obviously shocked and lost her composure. This expression was like a heavy hammer in Liu Zhenxuan's heart.
"Really? Father?" Gotani hugged her father's neck excitedly, her pretty face flushed red.
Hai Lun and Liu Zhenxuan hugged each other at the same time, celebrating the exciting news warmly.
Ningyu's heart tightened. She saw from the side that the muscles on Richard's face twitched violently when he turned his back, looking extremely ferocious.
This good news was quickly spread, and cheers were heard one after another. This is great news! Actually, two disappeared races have reappeared in the population of the kingdom, except for miracles.
There are no other words to describe it.
Although the two fairy dragons and Ao Pang also looked very happy, there was a hint of complexity in their eyes.
"This returning Medusa tribe originally numbered 30,000 people, but the dangerous swamp, monsters, wind, frost, cold and food took the lives of most of them..." The Swan Priest stared at Liu Zhenhan,
He slowly said: "...In the end, only some grown-up strong men and women were left. The old, weak, sick and disabled all fell on the long road home."
"God of War!" The scepter priests stopped their heated discussion, and a visible sadness filled their faces.
"Thirty thousand people...oh..." Liu Zhenxuan muttered this sentence as if he was dumbfounded.
"Among them, only the strong warriors and priests came down, especially their patriarch, Mr. Benitez, who passed the assessment of our Southwest Temple. He easily obtained the qualification of the scepter priest. This priest
Mr. Nitus’ familiar is a very rare giant Nemean lion. According to his power, he has actually reached the level of Great Shaman of Vian. The examiner responsible for the assessment this time is me, Great Shaman of Vian.
I don’t have the right to add more after the position is full, but I still have the right to add a scepter priest." Mr. Mourinho gently cut a piece of "bamboo rice" with a table knife, and stuffed it into his mouth with an elegant gesture.
, smiled lightly and said: "After my screening, among these three thousand Medusas, there are nine qualified soul priests, five war priests, and three scepter priests. The current patriarch meets Mr. Nitus and their elders.
Mr. Holier has even reached the level of the Great Shaman of Vian. By the way, I forgot to mention that Elder Holier’s magic pet is an extremely powerful beast bird. The other Medusas are all excellent warriors.
The best men among them are said to be able to kill a seven-foot-long adult crocodile and a five-hundred-pound swamp black turtle with their bare hands.”
Lao Liu only nodded after hearing this. He looked envious, but in fact, his heart was already in turmoil.
The Nemean Lion is an amphibious ancient lion species. They can be found in the oceans and deep lakes in some large swamps, as well as in deep mountains and old forests. The Nemean Lion is also a super-level beast.
It is the same level as the top magic pet between high-level and Fei Wenli's Poisonous Python. This kind of monster is a rare plant type monster. The current giant water lion is its subspecies descendant. The Live Bird, also known as the Suzaku, makes
The top level monsters of the frost type have always been rare in the Aegean continent. It is said that the sharp animal Suzaku comes from the Gold Coast continent, a foreign continent. When chasing his favorite silver cod, he will fly from that continent to the sea on the Aegean continent. It is said that
This bird only lands twice in its life, once alive and once dead. But the interesting thing is that like the cormorant, it can enter the water and can sneak in the water for a long time.
"What a strong strength..." Hai Lun was surprised and sighed...
The scepter priest also sighed for a while. The strength of this Medusa is actually so powerful that it can almost compete with the strength of a regional temple. This is really surprising.
The beautiful snake instructor lay on the table and started sobbing. Her arms tightly covered her face. Hailun quickly came to comfort her instructor who was in a state of excitement because she knew the news about her tribe.
Humph... Yes, the Zerg I brought back only produced a priest apprentice, but they produced so many powerful people. It was you, the priest legend, who discovered it. The excitement on Old Liu's face was visible, and in his stomach
But he was muttering.
"The Medusa clan, known as the favorite of the God of War, is a heroic nation. There have been dozens of Medusa kings in history. In the past, the title of royal clan did not refer to the Lain and Tago clans, but to them.
.This time they lost a large number of people in order to come back. In return, we must arrange fiefdoms for them, and their strength is worthy of this title, not to mention that their clan leader is also a priest. I will prepare this matter later.
Then, together with the report about you, submit it to the red-clothed high priest Lord Bulat." The chief priest smiled slightly and noticed Liu Zhenxuan: "There is not much fertile land in the kingdom, except for the vast wasteland south of the Sanggan River.
It is difficult to find a corresponding fief. In addition, as a clan of heroes, their fief must not be too small. After all, even you, the war priest, had a fief of five hundred miles when you were awarded the title. I am going to ask you
The temple suggested that the wasteland in front of Feileng Cui be divided into eight hundred miles and be awarded to these Medusas."
"Congratulations, sir! You should record your first achievement in retrieving the heroic clan this time."
The scepter priests slapped House one after another: "If it weren't for your hippogryph knights, these Medusas would have died in the mire."
"This is what every Behemoth should do. It is not a matter of merit. In view of this, I have decided on this matter, and I will strongly request the temple to exempt me from the award." The officiant said with a "haha" smile.
He made a witticism: "No more awards, I am already the officiant! Unless Mr. Brat says to add another title. Of course, Richard can make an exception. This time he brought back the Insect Behemoth, and this kind of credit is promoted to the next level."
Level as a reward is what it should be.”
All eyes on the table were turned to Liu Zhenxuan.
"No! Richard, like you, mentor, is also the most noble Behemoth priest! Our elegance is our pride, and saving the weak and our compatriots is our responsibility. We just did what we should do, and the reward is only
It can make us feel ashamed." Helen rushed to say.
Guoguo rode a parrot and floated over Helen's head. He dropped a string of "silly b~silly b~" and walked away.
An elf on the table next to him impatiently took a piece of fruit and threw it at the parrot. As expected, the elf's sharp shot didn't cover the ground, and Guoguo received a "bah" hit on the head. Guoguo touched his head aggrievedly.
A figure fluttered its feathers gracefully and was about to walk over when she saw Daisy pressing her hand towards it and sitting down again. A pair of red eyes glared at the elf fiercely.
When Pan Shuai saw this scene, the cup in his hand cracked with a bang and was crushed into pieces. He stood up and was about to come over. But Ao Pang held him back.
"Don't let this little thing fly around." Liu Zhenxuan frowned and said to Ningyu, then turned his head and said obligingly to the officiant. "I am impressed by your magnanimity, and my humble body is willing to follow you.
pace."
Helen's words have been spoken, so what if she doesn't follow them? It's over, all the great achievements have been overshadowed by this handsome man. Daisy and Ruorna pouted at the same time.
"You are truly worthy of being the outstanding priests of my lineage." Mr. Mourinho praised the two juniors with approving eyes: "There is one more thing I haven't said to you. In fact, I don't know whether I should say it. This
A Medusa has just arrived and has no gold coins at all. The temple is Qingshui Yamen. The Kingdom's Treasury Department fought a war with the desert human kingdom this year and is now made of iron Chikin...
There was nothing left. So I decided to allocate a sum of money from my family to support their construction."
"Your generosity is comparable to that of all King Ramana." There was another flattering voice on the table.
Only Liu Zhenxuan shouted in his heart, "It's broken."
really……
"But there are no mines in the wilderness, and this fiefdom, which is not considered waste, cannot obtain effective taxation and financial benefits at all. Therefore, it will be a difficult problem for the heroic clan to survive in the future." The officiant's eyes were fixed on it.
Comrade Liu Zhenxuan: "I know that Feilengcui and the Sherpa family have agreed on mutual trade and opening of shops, which also includes a hugely profitable weapons workshop. I hope that you, Richard, can appropriately divide some interests.
,Give these Medusas..."
"Dear mentor, of course I have to follow in your footsteps. These fellow snake people who have traveled hard to return to their motherland have suffered. I agree to allocate a certain number of shops to them." Liu Zhenxuan said quickly before Helen could speak.
"If the store is opened in Feilengcui, it is not suitable for long-distance trade. There are no steel mines in the Danube Wasteland. The raw ore is transported from the Principality of Dolot. The journey is too long and the transportation cost will be very high. These weapons must be sold back to
Our military headquarters of the Kingdom of Bimon, the cost is too high, which will greatly strain the kingdom's abundant finances. The weapons workshop should simply be located in the territory of Medusa, so that the cost of transporting raw ore will be reduced by at least half." Mu.
Rinho smiled.
As soon as these words were spoken, even the scepter priests couldn't help but murmur in their hearts. To put it bluntly, the two guardian battles of Feilengcui, the one that can see the benefits is the trade treaty signed with the Shabar family of the Duchy of Dolot.
The richest thing in the trade treaty is the weapons workshop. As for the false name of opening the road to the Holy Mountain of Hyjal, except for the young priests who will be burning with passion, the old fritters like the Fox Scepter Priests probably don't agree with it in their hearts.
The road is open, of course there is no problem in going to the sacrifice. But do ordinary Behemoths dare to go? There are no Behemoth military stations to protect them along the way! Human beings have always been eyeing Behemoth, fearing that a beautiful little Fox girl would step onto that road.
A piece of land disappeared within three days.
Didn't Mr. Mourinho's words cause Feilengcui to fight two bloody battles? Although the cunning and cunning Fox Scepter priests were muttering in their hearts, they were absolutely calm on the surface.
Only the two Bill priests agreed stupidly: "That's right, a clan of heroes can't starve to death, right?"
"The land where Florence created miracles and heroes, as heroes and the most noble sacrifices, shouldn't we show some broad-mindedness?" Mr. Mourinho's face showed a color called holiness: "
Think of this Medusa. It has experienced thousands of years of wind and frost."
#### came, sacrificing nine-tenths of the population in exchange for return.
Helen was a Fox Fox. No matter how religious she was, she still had some basic economic acumen. This time she blinked her beautiful eyes and said nothing.
"Weapons workshops can be opened in the fief of Medusa, there is absolutely no problem..." Liu Zhenxuan's chest made a "bang bang" sound.
There was a hint of surprise on the face of the Swan Priest. Just as he was about to say a few words of praise with a smile, Old Liu spoke again.
"...But..." Old Liu pointed at the insect-man Behemoths and said, "If I have to raise so many insect-man Behemoths, it will be impossible for me to make any profit at all..."
"Don't you have so many jewels?" Mr. Mourinho pointed to the big clam shells containing pearl agate.
Lao Liu really wants to kick himself. Don’t reveal your wealth!
"Mr. Mourinho, whether we can sell these pearl agates is also a question. Our Behemoth Kingdom is not rich, and treasures cannot fill our stomachs!" Helen smiled sweetly and hugged the neck of the beautiful snake mentor:
"Medusa is a member of the same race as Mentor Bessie, and we cannot treat them badly. How about this? Let's set up a weapons workshop with them, and how about we split the profits half and half?"
"What do you think?" The beautiful snake instructor wiped the tears on his face and looked up at the officiant.
"Why didn't I think of this method?" Mr. Mourinho rubbed his eyebrows, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It seems that I am really old."
Liu Zhen smiled reservedly, but he really wanted to kill someone.
"By the way, I almost forgot. In recognition of your selfless and great dedication in the battle between Feileng Cui and the human bandits, I will give you and Helen the "Star Robe Priest" on behalf of the Kingdom Temple.
Honor." Priest Swan suddenly thought of something, clapped his hands and said to Liu Zhenxuan.
Immediately an elf next to him took a sealed square leather bag and pulled out four neatly stacked sacrificial moon-white robes. The ribbon-shaped collar was decorated with blue six-pointed stars, which was very eye-catching.
Liu Zhenxuan and Helen looked at each other and smiled.
Star-robed priests generally only grant it to older and retired priests, or cover the corpses of veteran priests who have died. This is a huge honor, but it is just an honor. The only thing about Boolean b is that the star-robed priest can
When meeting any noble or high-level priest, he enjoys the courtesy of the other person first touching his chest and paying tribute. Master Qi Dan is one of the recipients of the star robe sacrifice. This beloved Vian Shaman has a purple shaman robe with a smear on the collar.
There is also a gold star embroidered on it, but it seems that when he met Mr. Mourinho, he seemed to be the first to pay tribute.
"Let me try it on first." Liu Zhenxuan took off his worn sacrificial robe, revealing a body of strong and wild muscles and tattoos. His broken arm was shocking.
Perhaps because she had never seen a sacrificial tattoo before, the female elf holding the star robe was a little dumbfounded. She also did not expect that a sacrificial priest would only have a pair of boots and underwear under the robe in the middle of winter.
"Richard is worthy of being the only priest in the kingdom who can sing and dance." Mr. Mourinho nodded slightly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
Of course, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. Liu Zhenxuan, who has changed into a star robe, has an extraordinary bearing and looks forward to Zixiong. Once his face becomes less violent, he will naturally have an indescribable strength and majesty, which is similar to Mr. Mourinho.
What is different from the majestic temperament that is naturally revealed is that Liu Zhenxuan's majesty is a strong and martial spirit poured out of flesh and blood.
If the majesty of the Swan officiant gives people a sense of restraint, then the majesty of Liu Zhenhan gives people a sense of danger. This feeling is similar to facing a sleeping beast with bare hands.
Since the shirt was folded, a pair of white thighs were always exposed with every step he took, causing the militiamen to laugh wildly.
"This is the "Yunhui Medal" awarded to those who have meritorious service in resisting foreign enemies.
You and Helen deserve the honor." The beautiful snake instructor also took out a beautifully processed rectangular box like a magic trick, took out a half-finger-long sword medal with a purple ribbon, and clasped it on Liu Zhenhan
left chest.
The sword-shaped medal is made of silver and features the Mongolian words "You will never walk alone" and a relief of a sacred mountain shrouded in mist.
"The "Silver Star Double-Headed Eagle Medal" inside is given to your followers to reward their outstanding contributions in battle." Mentor Beauty Snake helped Liu Zhenxuan sort out the location of the shining silver medal.
There was thunderous applause.
Liu Zhenxuan almost saluted, but temporarily changed it to a Patton-style forehead gesture. Then he bowed his head in a manner that was so humble that he couldn't be more modest.
Lao Liu discovered that his right chest had several hazelnut-sized patterns embroidered with money and wheat sui inscriptions.
After taking a closer look, it turned out to be a thorn bird flapping its wings and singing on a crossed sword, a flamingo with a red crown and a diamond-shaped shield with four arrows. The shield had the word "golem" in Behemoth.
There are two initials, and there are a black blood-dropping dragon and a golden dragon logo on the cuffs with blue stars on both sides.
You all know all about my belongings. Liu Zhenxuan curled his lips.
"These are the symbols that prove your identity as a singer and martial artist, a natural soul singer and the title of the first puppet master in the Behemoth Kingdom. The four long swords on the shield represent that you have destroyed four steel puppets, and the giant dragon is embroidered on the cuffs.
, to commend you for slaying a dragon and defeating a dragon knight." Seeing Richard looking at these shadows, the beautiful snake instructor explained to him with a smile.
Liu Zhenxuan raised his head and stared at the face of instructor Cui Beiyin. The beautiful snake instructor's eyes never made contact with him, and there was a kind of dissociated beauty.
"Why is there no pattern of Guoguo?" Liu Zhenxuan asked.
"You little fool, how can the Frost Snow Pichu beast be embroidered here? Do you want to make others laugh to death? In addition, you should solve the problem of the two fairy dragons as soon as possible. The Great Shaman Wei'an and I have been hiding this matter for you.
, I didn’t even tell Tutor Mourinho.” Tutor Cui Beiyin came close to Liu Zhenxuan’s ear and breathed out quietly.
This matter could no longer be concealed, and the battle had already been revealed. Liu Zhenxuan was secretly amused.
"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment! The great shaman Wei'an stood up again, smiled and made a "step-up" movement towards the surroundings. This movement with both hands forming a T-shape is the symbol of the Mongolian ritual.
It means stillness.”
"Opening the road to the Holy Mountain of Hyjal is the pride of all Behemoth. On behalf of the Witherspoon Temple, I commend Priest Richard and Priest Helen each with a "Medal of the Southern Cross" that represents their outstanding contributions. In fact, they should be awarded
Your "Medal of Warriors" is the right one. It's just that you are both clergy, and this medal is the highest honor of our Witherspoon Temple." The Great Shaman of Vian also stood up and took it out from his side.
From the velvet box, a water-based medal with a red ribbon was taken out and buckled on Liu Zhenhan's chest.
The applause thundered again.
Have you made an appointment? The muscles on Lao Liu’s smiling face are a little tired.
"As the bug-bringing Behemoth, the rewards for promotion can be cancelled, but the "Knight Medal of the God of War" is the honor you deserve, and you deserve it as the savior of the seat. Because you didn't know it in advance
So I will personally make a suggestion to the king later, and the king will personally award you the Olympic Games next spring." Mr. Mourinho smacked his mouth meaningfully and said with a smile: Richard, your contribution will be greatly appreciated.
If you continue like this, there will be no medals awarded to you from the Kingdom Block.
"Haha..." the Great Shaman of Wei'an said cheerfully: "Master Priest, Richard performed very well in rescuing the Prince of the Far East last time. I have heard about the military report. If we can have trade relations with the Far East Continent,
, he has also won the "Silk Road Medal", the highest award from the financial department."
"I don't know if the sea route is possible. I heard that in the past few hundred years, the sea people have not been very friendly to Eastern merchant ships. It seems that now more Eastern trade merchant groups choose to take the land route." Mr. Mourinho sighed.
He sighed: "Actually, the arrival of luxury goods from the East may not be a good thing for the kingdom."
"That's that, that's..." Shaman Wei'an immediately changed the topic and agreed with his smile.
I have done so many things and only got two ghost medals and a sacrificial robe? Liu Zhenxuan thought bitterly while laughing.
"Congratulations, Richard, I have another great news to tell you." The officiating priest said mysteriously: "This incident makes all of us priests proud."
Old Liu's heart began to surge again. Today's good news made him a little worried.
Seeing the expression on Liu Zhenxuan's face that was eager to know the answer, the Swan officiant, Mr. Mourinho, directed the elf beside him to fill the cup with rum.
"Due to your outstanding achievements in getting through to the Holy Mountain of Hyjal, I have drafted the outline. The temple will formally submit a request to His Majesty Grek Thrall and the Elders to expand the Templar Knights. We are ready to transfer the number of Templars in each temple to
A new lowest level of Templars - Knights of Wands will be added below the Templars of Thorns." Mr. Mourinho talked eloquently: "In this case, the defense force of the temple will become Knights of Wands and Knights of Thorns.
, Iron Knight, Bronze Knight, Silver Knight, Gold Knight and Honorary Knight seven levels."
"Oh?" Liu Zhenxuan continued to wait for the next step.
"The levy of the Knights of Wands is set to two thousand people. In this way, each of the twenty existing Knights of Thorns can become a squadron leader. Each of the existing ten Iron Knights is in charge of two squadrons of Knights of Thorns, and five
Each Bronze Knight is in charge of two Iron Knights and their subordinates. Two Silver Knights are in charge of two Bronze Knights and their subordinates. Since there are five Bronze Knights, the extra Bronze Knight and the four hundred knights are allocated according to their heads.
Give each priest a guardian knight." Mr. Mourinho took out a parchment from his arms and solemnly placed it in front of Liu Zhenhan: "This protective force will have a common name - "Sunset Knights"
, here are the plans, badges and uniform designs, and the draft budget."
As soon as this news came out, everyone in the house was shocked except for the Great Shaman Wei'an and the beautiful snake.
Liu Zhensha also took a deep breath.
"The original forty Knights Templar suddenly expanded into two regiments? The five major temples in the kingdom, a total of ten regiments?" Liu Zhencheng did not speak. The scepter priest next to him first started to speak: "King
Is it possible to agree with the Council of Elders? Master Priest?"
"Mr. Mourinho, the officiant, the Golden Knights and the Honorary Knights, it seems that they are not arranged, right?" Liu Zhenshao glanced at the plan and asked curiously.
"Liger princes are the eternal guardians appointed by the God of War. Of course they cannot leave the temple. As for honorary knights, they are originally used for titles and are not suitable for leadership, right?" Mr. Mourinho smiled: "As for the king and the elders
Whether the temple agrees or not. This is to be discussed. When the plan is submitted, I will double the establishment. No matter how I negotiate, at least I will ensure that each temple has the military strength of two regiments. We can use
Feilengcui will give you an example. A sacrificial territory was invaded by foreigners. How many days did it take for the Northeastern Military Headquarters to arrive?"
It's amazing, it's amazing! His Majesty the King placed his son in the temple, and now the Swan Priest has taken away all his rights with the title of "Eternal Guardian". Liu Zhenshao was secretly speechless.
"The Knights of the Sunset?" The Sunset Swamp is the fief of the Simai Swans. Is this name a coincidence? Liu Zhenzhen's mind was spinning.
"It's probably difficult." The scepter priests shook their heads.
"If the King and the Council of Elders still can't be convinced by the achievements of opening up the Holy Mountain of Hyjal and retrieving the two lost clans, I suggest that the local temples form their own private protection forces. The existing plan remains unchanged, but the
It was formed in the name of followers to ensure the safety of the altar priests themselves." The officiant sneered.
The follower system itself is a big loophole. Liu shocked his eyes and turned quickly.
"Where are the funds and budget?" The scepter priest also became interested.
"The temple will initiate a fundraiser, and then unify and export this military force to various human countries as terracotta soldiers to earn operating funds. The human countries are not friendly to us, so we will start with friendly countries, such as Dolot.
After building a good reputation and developing a group of mature fighters, we can then expand appropriately." Mr. Mourinho said.
"This...isn't this a businessman?"
"Who knows human beings as well as I do? The nature of human beings is to pursue profits. Where can a caravan protected by priests and Behemoth warriors not go?" The Swan Priest sneered again: "Seat the priests, it's time for us to step out of the wasteland and take a look outside.
Of course, the gold coins earned by the Sunset Knights can also add some benefits to the priests."
After hearing this, the scepter priests all nodded their heads. This would enhance the status and identity of the place of sacrifice. It doesn't require you to worry about it yourself. Why not do it.
"Look how many church armed forces there are in the Holy See of Saint Paul? There are two of them! One is the Knights of the Golden Palm, and the other is the Knights of the Oak Leaf Sword. What about us? There are only 200 Templars in the five major temples combined!" the officiant said.
The adult's voice increased: "What kind of concept is this? If these religious lunatics carry out another crusade to eliminate heretics, what should we priests do to deal with them? Are we still going to rely on the military bureaucrats?"
"Yes, yes," the priests thought, and it was indeed true.
"Actually, the organization is dead, but the people are alive. Qian'er, after you become the great shaman of Wei'an in the Northeast Province, those three thousand Medusas are all excellent warriors and can all absorb the "Sunset Sun" of Wei's first army.
Knights "Three wings are three wings, it doesn't matter if there are more." Mr. Mourinho said to the beautiful snake mentor.
The beautiful snake instructor nodded but said nothing. "Richard, your followers are quite outstanding. How about joining the Knights of the Sunset Templar as well?" Mr. Mourinho glanced at Liu with a side glance.
Shocked, he seemed to ask casually.
After hearing this, Elder Andulan immediately lowered his eyelids and kept touching his head.
"Okay." Liu Zhenshao agreed immediately. He was flipping through the plan book. Want to have a drink to release the military power? If you believe me, you are an idiot. Old Liu was laughing in his heart.
“…that’s great…your safety.
When the time comes, Qian'er will arrange for you to be guarded by the Templars. In fact, you are so brave. You may not need the Templars, right... Haha..." The officiant was obviously stunned and patted Old Liu affectionately.
shoulders.
"The knights of each province are under the responsibility of the great shaman of security in each province. In addition to the red priest, I will be the commander-in-chief and decision-maker of this armed force," Lord Oyster Neo smiled.
Huh... Among the sacrifices across the country, the name of the red-robed high priest Blatter may be better than others. If you worship the legendary Mr. Mourinho, who doesn't know who doesn't? Who would be satisfied if you serve as this official for other priests?
Yours? A northeastern temple and a southwest temple are scanned for yours.
You've got something in your pocket, why don't you act so hypocritically? Liu Zhenzhen sneered in his heart.
"I wonder how high my followers can become if they become Templar Knights?" Liu Zhancheng asked with a silly look on his face.
"They are outstanding warriors, and they can get the best training at the grassroots level." said the officiant.
When the officiant said this, even the cunning Fox Scepter Priest couldn't help curling his lips. As for the militiamen like Feilengcui, even if you are a golden knight, if you really want to fight with them, they will be everywhere.
Looking for dental materials.
"Then can I sign up to join this team? I am a priest who practices both singing and martial arts. Violence is my strong point!" Liu Zhenzhen asked in the couplet.
"A sacrifice is a sacrifice, how can it be involved with the Templars," Mr. Mourinho smiled angrily.
"Oh..." Liu Zhancheng nodded honestly.
"Richard, the instructor also wants to ask you to help with something." The officiant said seriously: "You also know that I am the lord of the Bode tribe. I heard Gotani say that there are harpies and harpies from our bird tribe in the underground world.
A Boer tauren took refuge inside after the battle of Hyjal. Originally, I was planning to rescue them this time. You see, because Medusa and the insect-man Behemoth suddenly appeared, I had to come back to my senses as soon as possible.
I would like to ask you to exchange the sacrifices with others in the temple.
Rescue the Behemoth Harpies and another Boer Rhinoceros tribe from the center of the underground. In this case, our Behemoth tribes will be all over. What do you think?"
"I have a few things on hand recently. How about we wait until the general store arrangements are made?" Liu Zhenzhen said.
"No problem," the officiant agreed immediately.
"Teacher, I formally propose to you. I want Miss Gotani to be my wife. You see..." Liu Zhenshao suddenly said something extremely shocking.
Everyone around was dumbfounded. Gotani's face suddenly turned the color of emerald green, her white wings were trembling, and her face alternated between a bit of confusion and a bit of longing, with complicated expressions.
Mr. Mourinho's face was slightly startled, then returned to its normal state.
"Richard, you really know how to joke..." The father's words made his daughter feel sad for a while. "I'm not joking." Liu Zhenshao said seriously.
"We'll wait until you become the high priest in red first." Mr. Mourinho will not be as passive as the little Maotou.
"Then what you said means you agreed?" Liu Zhenzhen's performance was completely in line with the identity of the Pige tribe, and he insisted on not letting go.
"If you don't want to marry a human princess, why do you have to marry my daughter?" A trace of contempt flashed in the eyes of the officiant. This was his only gaffe tonight. This kind of gaffe would not be noticed by ordinary people without paying attention.
"That's because Gotani is more beautiful." Old Liu blew out a puff of thick cigar smoke.
"Richard, stop being so messy. Women from our Swan tribe never marry foreigners." Mr. Mourinho said with a helpless smile.
"Isn't it okay to offer sacrifices to two dragons?" Liu Zhenhan asked aggrievedly. The two fairy dragons stood behind Liu Zhenhan and brushed off the cloaks on their heads.
Except for the Swan officiant, no one was excited.
"Fairy dragon?" Mr. Mourinho stood up in a leap. At this moment, his eyes were extremely sharp, and he was looking at the beautiful snake Cui Bessie.
"Richard!" The beautiful snake instructor's voice was filled with strong anger and dissatisfaction.
"King Behemoth's only double dragon sacrifice is no good, either?" Liu Zhenzhen continued to take a puff of his cigar.
"The marriage of children has nothing to do with their ability." Mr. Mourinho's eyes immediately returned to calmness, he shook his sacrificial robe and sat back in his seat.
"Teacher, I'm just joking with you. Look, can the Pig clan marry the Swan clan? What's more, I'm still a disabled person?" Liu Zhenzhen laughed.
"It seems that without knowing it, you have completely surpassed me and reached the height of Taimurraya." The chief priest of the Swan looked at the figure in front of him again with kind eyes.
Guoguo jumped on the table, holding her big belly in her hands and looking at the swan priest, and kept sniffing with her little nose.
"A cigar I don't smoke~
I have been with you for many years~
A horse stride forward~
Anyone who offends me is in danger~"
Liu Zhencheng hummed a jade tune. "I'm proud of you." Mr. Mourinho squinted his eyes and said sincerely.
Liu Zhencheng didn't speak any more, he crushed the cigar in his mouth on the table, picked up the wine glass, touched it lightly with Mr. Mourinho, and drank all the snow in the glass in one gulp.
