Law of the Devil

Chapter 522 [The Griffin Boy]

"Carcalot, this is a strange name."

In a room on the third floor of the Knights' Association's headquarters, Deron leaned back in the chair, and the dirty boots were on the table, holding a player's information. His body also exudes a strong taste of alcohol and fat.

Du Wei sat across from him, his eyes glanced at the Deron Knight's boots, sniffed his nose, and frowned. "Where did you go last night? Go to which fairy nest to go to?"

"Oh no, no." Deron swayed his head again and again, and his expression was obviously somewhat proud: "Take your blessing, my Duke, I can't go to the cheap goblin in the south of the city now... Those cheap perfume powders taste good, it’s hard to imagine how I could have endured them. Now I can be different. Last night, a countess invited me to the ecstasy outside the city. I have to say, That place is awesome! If it's my own, I can't go to that place, even if I can get in, I can't bear to pay that price."

Du Wei smiled. He knew the place that Deron said, and he had been with Chen.

"The girl in that place is so beautiful, beautiful and intoxicating. Unfortunately, if you didn't come to me early this morning, I really want to keep the little baby sleeping until noon."

Said, Deron’s book in his hand was thrown on the table: “Well, my Duke’s adult, I’m serious. I’m a serious person, and I’m not going to be perfunctory when I’m doing business.”

Du Wei blew a whistle and thought: Serious people? Is there a guy in the world who is less serious than you?

"This Carcarote is the opponent in the final of our beautiful warrior." Deron sighed: "It's really disappointing. Actually, I hope we can have two beautiful warriors! No? Final At that time, watching the two beautiful warriors fight in the ring, the scene must be hot... Duke adults, in your words, um, how to say ... ah, yes, 'has a stimulating effect on the box office '. That's what you said?"

Du Wei grinned: "If you want, you can convince this Carocar to be a woman."

Deron actually thought about it seriously, then shook his head: "Okay, no kidding, and serious. My Duke, this contest will soon end, although I am reluctant... it can give We made a lot of money! If I can, I really hope that this kind of competition will be held once a year. But... The question now is. What do we do next? The candidate for the Knights of the Roland Sword is in this booklet. Everyone's body is very innocent, there is no special background... Well, according to your request, anyone with a special background will give us a way to stop outside in the preliminaries."

Du Wei smiled and smiled a little weird: Carkalot? It’s really fun!

I don't know if this guy will become a Super Saiyan? Or...he still has a name called Sun Wukong?

According to the information, this young man named Carocar is twenty-three years old this year. Born in the south, growing in the south. He began to practice martial arts from an early age, and a well-known warrior in the south, and living in the southern swamp area all year round is not a paradise for life.

Quite the opposite.

In the southeastern part of Roland's mainland, there is a large swamp. Where the climate is hot and humid, it will rain for almost half of the year. There are also suffocating and poisonous fog that humans can't bear. There are also many toxic plants... More importantly, the swamp in the south is above the entire Roland continent, very rare, and can find the place of Warcraft!

On the mainland of Roland, it is recognized that there are areas where World of Warcraft is frequently active. One is the frozen forest in the north and the other is the swamp in the south. Of course... It is said that there are sporadic Warcraft in the Kilimaro Mountains. But that is rare. Almost negligible.

The swamps in the south are the favorite places for mercenary groups except for the frozen forest. But from the number and quality of Warcraft. The southern marshes are a bit worse than the frozen forests in the north. Most of the World of Warcraft are low-level things, unlike the frozen forests in the north, there are high-level Warcraft haunts.

So if you are a poaching gang, then the north may be more attractive to you. Because of the Warcraft produced in the South, it is difficult to sell big prices.

Therefore, the Empire guards the two main warring regiments in the frontier, and the Stormtroopers in the north, whether it is fighting power, equipment, and treatment, are higher than the southern legion. The Storm Corps is stationed on the edge of the frozen forest and has a heavy responsibility. In contrast, the Southern Army is responsible for guarding the southern swamps, and it is much easier.

Didn’t you see that the empire has repeatedly abolished the Southern Army for many years.

But... even if this is the case, no one dares to despise the swamp in the south!

There is only one reason, because the swamp in the south is the only one above the whole continent, producing a special World of Warcraft!

This kind of Warcraft is among the only Warcraft species known to us, the only one that is a group of Warcraft! (Except for this, most of Warcraft lives alone.)

This kind of thing, with sharp minions, powerful terrible physical strength, and ... the ability to fly!

This kind of thing is the griffin!

This large-scale Warcraft, with a huge eagle head, sharp mouth can easily wear the samurai armor! The sharp claws on the limbs can tear a cow into pieces without difficulty, and... they also have strong wings. When the wings are vibrating, the angry wind can blow down an adult strong man! From the point of view of strength, an adult gryphon can easily grab a sheep, fly to the sky, and then throw it away!

At the same time, you should never imagine that you can deal with these things like the wind with ordinary bows and arrows. Because ordinary bows and arrows can't hurt this kind of things at all, when they fly, the wings are vibrating. You can sweep most of the arrows off! What's more, this kind of thing is covered with feathers... The strength of the feathers can be compared with the light armor of the Empire!

Most adult gryphons also have the magic of the wind system, although it is a low-level wind blade. Moreover, the grunt of the griffin has the effect of dizziness.

... Considering that this kind of thing is a gregarious creature, when it comes to a group of hundreds of lions. Even if it is the strength of a division, it will definitely choose to retreat to avoid!

Therefore, although the number and quality of Warcraft in the southern marshes are mostly inferior, the empire still maintains the strength of a legion to stay in the edge of the swamp. It is to defend against this large and fierce air overlord.

If you barely count it, Du Wei should be regarded as "seeing" the Griffin, just before that time in the southern half of the city, before Vivienne, but the griffin that was seen. It is an illusion that was fascinated by Vivian's fearful demon.

But even so, the fierceness of the griffin is enough to leave a deep impression on Du Wei.

In fact... Du Wei had long thought about this kind of thing long ago.

That was when Du Wei established the Decepticons air squad and began to conceive the future of the empire!

Griffin is such a fierce airborne Warcraft, no doubt. It is what Du Wei knows, the most suitable creature in the world to be a rider in the air knight! !

They are fierce enough, powerful enough, and flying fast enough. And... the power of oneself is very strong.

However, after studying the nature of this Warcraft, Du Wei quickly gave up this plan.

The reason is very simple, the Griffin is a kind of Warcraft, cruel and cruel... Hey!

And they are all social groups, there will be no separate activities. So, it is very difficult to capture this cruelly big guy!

If you face a group of griffins, even a group of warriors. It’s only the part of the wilderness, let alone the arrest of a batch!

Of course, if you can have a strong leader, it will not be impossible to catch a few. But the problem is that this gryphon has another characteristic: it is extremely difficult to domesticate!

Extremely difficult, very, very difficult! !

In the clues of some ancient literature, Du Wei found a record that had been of great interest to him: Du Wei's past life, during the reign of Emperor Aragon, the founding father of the Empire. Once organized a large-scale operation to hunt the Griffin.

Take the strength of Aragon. In addition, he was the founding father of the battle, and finally successfully recovered hundreds of lions.

Du Wei read this news. I immediately understood: This one's past life, I played the same idea with myself, and wanted to tame this thing to form the Air Force! Moreover, after the adult gryphon proved to be untamed, Aragon apparently wanted to start domesticating from the newborn lion cub...

It is a pity that all the griffins that have been caught are not tamed! Whether it is big or small! After a few days in those cages, they were all hunger strikes and even the imperial magician could not solve the problem.

Because most of Warcraft, magicians can sign soul contracts on them, and thus accept them as magical pets. Of course, the gryphon can also. It’s just that... the griffins must be in groups to have deterrence!

Only a magician can control the gryphon, and ordinary soldiers will never have a door!

You can't let all the magicians of the empire go to the air cavalry!

This ferocious creature is the recognized hegemon of the southern marshes.

People living in the southern marshes, there is a custom, that is, many local warriors, will depict the pattern of the griffin on their own weapons, such as shields or swords!

If you are in the South and see someone engraving this pattern on a sword or shield, then you must respect this kind of person! Because according to the custom of the southern swamp area, the warriors who are qualified to leave such marks on the weapons are all masters who have experienced the battle with the lions in a group, and can still live back!

In the South, you can encounter a group of fierce griffins, and you will be lucky to come back alive, will be considered the embodiment of strength!

The reason why Du Wei is now very interested in this gryphon is that the other person in the hand shows that this young man named Carocar has lived in the southern swamp area for many years, and he is A person who is qualified to print a gryphon pattern on his weapon!

In the middle of the game. In the preliminaries, Carcaro did not use the weapons and defeated the opponent with bare hands. In the rematch, the weapon he used was... a short spear and a shield. On the shield, there was a leap of lions!

Du Wei looked at the hourglass in the room and suddenly said to himself: "Time is up... I hope this kid can be late, I don't like guys who don't follow the time."

Just as Du Wei’s voice just fell. In the outer courtyard, there was a rude voice from the old servant Dorf: "Deron, someone is looking for you!"

The person who was brought into the room on the third floor by the old servant Dorf was the mysterious contestant, Carocall.

Because of the comic book of the previous generation, Du Wei was very fond of this young man named Kakarote.

Looking at this guy coming in, the expression was very cold, but his eyes were still a little nervous with a few young people. Du Wei smiled softly: "There is a chair in the room, you can sit down by yourself. Don't be nervous."

Deron frowned and looked at Du Wei. Obviously, calling this Carotel was Du Wei’s idea. I have not said it to Deron beforehand.

"Adult." Caroline did not really sit down, but took a very serious gift to Du Wei. Du Wei noticed that this was a ritual of a common glimpse of the nobility, not a knight.

"Why don't you give a knight?" Du Wei laughed.

"Because I am not a knight. I don't have a knight title and rank." Carocall's voice is not humble.

“Why is there no Cavalier title?” Du Wei still smiles and calms: “Your strength can be fully qualified for the Cavaliers.”

Carcarot is silent.

His appearance is very delicate, but his skin is a bit dark and his hair is like a straw. This hairstyle has inspired Du Wei's wonderful memories of Dragon Ball.

Carotel's thin lips squatted tightly, and Du Wei could see that the young man was hesitating to tell the truth.

"To tell the truth." Du Wei slowly reminded the other party: "You should know my identity, I am looking for you, not a bad thing. I hope that you understand that there is now a chance to be in front of you. As for Can you catch it, depending on whether you can satisfy me... I like honest people."

"Yes, adults." Carcaro features: "Of course, I know your reputation. In my heart, you are a person who deserves my respect."

Du Wei smiled uncontrollably. He knows his position in the hearts of many young people in the Empire...just like an idol.

"Sit down and talk." Du Wei once again pointed to the chair in the room: "There is tea on the table, you have poured it yourself, you are welcome, don't be restrained, I don't like people who are too tight."

Deron has never spoken. Just curious to see Du Wei. I don't know why Du Wei is so special to this kid.

In fact, Carcalot is extremely embarrassed. Because at least, face-to-face and the famous Duke of Tulips speak loudly, the Duke is still so amiable to speak to himself, the tone is so gentle, there is no big man's shelf... In fact, for young Carcalot The Duke of Tulips has always been an object of worship in his heart.

"I can't take the Cavalier title." After hesitating for a while, Carocall finally said the answer: "My father and mother are slaves, I am the first generation of free people, so... I am not qualified to be a knight. Unless it is special."

There was a smile on Du Wei’s mouth, and then he used the eyes of encouragement to signal the young man to continue.

"My father was a mine slave in the mine... He was convicted when he was young, became a slave, deprived of the status of an imperial citizen, and sent to the south to mine, my mother, is..."

Du Wei suddenly smiled and glanced at Carotel's dark skin: "Your mother is a Nanyang, is it right? Your skin color is black, it is a characteristic of Nanyang people."

"...this is the case." Kacaro features a head, his eyes trying to hide his inferiority.

Du Wei can understand his inferiority: after all, in the minds of most Roland people, Nanyang people are equal to slaves. It is synonymous with despicableness.

"Original, the son of a slave, I should also be a slave. My father worked for a lifetime and finally redeemed his sins... He saved the life of a supervisor in the mine, but he was stoned. The sergeant was a distant relative of a nobleman. In return, he gave me a chance to forgive. I got a free identity and changed from a slave to a free citizen... I was eight years old at that time."

The simple statement, the tone is also somewhat indifferent. However, Du Wei and Delong can imagine that the seemingly indifferent words, the hidden bitterness.

"The empire has laws. My parents are slaves. When I came to my generation, although I have regained the freedom of the people, because I am the first generation of free people, the imperial law does not allow people like me to take the title of the Cavaliers. I am like this. People, even if they enter the army, they can only be a small soldier for a lifetime, and even an officer can’t be.” Kakarot shook his head: “So I didn’t go to the Cavaliers.”

This is indeed imperial law. According to the law, the person who has just left the slavery in the Carcarot generation is not allowed to engage in any "noble" occupation unless his descendants. Only then can you get rid of this imprisonment.

Although somewhat cruel, the world is a feudal world with a strict hierarchy.

Du Wei smiled and said: "Who did you learn from martial arts?"

"My teacher, he used to be a mercenary. When he was old, he returned to his hometown to live in seclusion. He took me. When I was eight years old, he began to teach me..."

When it comes to this. Carotel’s tone is obviously vague.

After all, it’s still young people... Du Wei sighed and didn’t know how to cover up.

Said, Du Wei took the book from the table, gently placed it in front of Caroline, and turned it to one of the pages.

"Carcalot, male, twenty-three years old, warrior. No grade. Real strength is expected to be the Imperial Seventh Standard. The son of slave. At the age of eight, he became a free man from slavery. The southern border is a purple leaf city. Cousa-Lima. Cousa-Lima, a six-level warrior on the mainland. Southerners, who played for the 'Red Snow Mercenary Group' for sixteen years, owed twenty years, an adventure of the Red Snow Mercenary in the South Sea Marsh In the middle of the regiment, only Coussa-Lima escaped and survived. From then on, he retired to return to the countryside to work as a farmer. He owned a total of property and a land of four acres. Two years ago, he died because of alcoholism and human struggle. One hundred and sixty gold coins, all the property is not returned, no inheritance."

The black and white words are clear and clear, and they will be clearly written by Carcarote’s personal experience and the teacher.

The young man looked up at Du Wei with some surprise.

Du Wei smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, I am not targeting you. But... Since you entered the finals, you are likely to become the head of the Roland Sword Knights in the future... We can't always be responsible for guarding Longchino. The head of the Knights of Spears is a person of unknown origin! I will show you this, that is, although you are hiding when you fill in your resume, but in front of our strength, you Kind of child-like concealment is just a joke. If I want to check it out, I can even dig out your diaper pants when I was young!"

Carocar’s eyes were immediately a little vigilant.

Du Wei can clearly feel that this child seems to have some hostility in his eyes.

"And, you seem to have concealed one thing..." Du Wei smiled: "You seem to be carrying a little trouble yourself."

His fingers lightly clicked on the paper twice: "I am very curious about you, and you are about to become a member of the Roland Sword Knights. I have to check your origins... of course. There is no doubt about your origin, but... your teacher, the Mr. Kusah-Lima, seems to have some... well, how to say it, complicated!"

Du Wei slowly said, looking at the young man's expression carefully: "Red Snow Mercenary Corps... a second-rate mercenary group. So they were killed in the adventure process in the southern swamp, this news It won't attract too many people's attention, right? But I am very curious. In the southern swamp, there are no other great Warcraft besides the Griffin. It is obvious that a mercenary group can be destroyed. They are gangs of lions. This is the only explanation...but..."

Du Wei sighed: "A few days ago, the person I sent to the South came back and told me something interesting. Your teacher, as the only person who survived from that mercenary group. In his relics, actually No weapon is a lion's pattern! Isn't this the custom of yours? He should have met the Griffin and escaped. He should be qualified to do so, but he didn't do it!"

Du Wei is not in a hurry, he has accurately captured a trace of tension in the eyes of young people.

"This is the first doubt. The second question is... your teacher died two years ago in a fight after drinking... I am very curious, a bunch of drunken fights, your teacher is also a six-level warrior... ... Of course. I guess your teacher's strength may be more than six. But the question is... How can a six-level warrior be killed in a drunken fight? It's like saying that a knight The head of the group fell to death when riding a horse... joke!"

Du Wei's tone is getting more and more severe.

And Carocar, the boy's hand on the side of his leg, has been pinched tightly, pinched into a fist, while still trembling gently, his expression is indifferent. The lips are lingering.

"The third doubt." Du Wei said faintly: "You, as your teacher's apprentice. You were adopted by him when he was eight years old. It can be said that he can even be your father! He has supported you, the church. You are martial arts, train your adult. What kind of grace is this? It is reasonable to say that he was killed by a group of drunkards, you are his apprentice and adopted son, and the young people are just as bloody. You should not be as weak. Soft eggs, if you change someone, you have already taken a knife to find those people to take revenge! But you did not!"

Carocar’s body began to tremble, and he seemed to be trying to endure.

"The fourth doubt, after your teacher died, you sent him a funeral, and then you disappeared! On the record, you disappeared for two years. Where have you been in the past two years? Not at home There is no record of any work... Where did you go? In the southern swamp? Lived like a wild man for two years?” Du Wei smiled softly.

"The fifth doubt, your current strength is much stronger than when you disappeared two years ago? Your teacher is only six, but the strength you have shown in the ring should reach level seven or above. Of course. Maybe you are a genius. Your achievements are more than the teacher, and you can barely explain... But I think things don't seem so simple."

"The sixth doubt is even more interesting to me." Du Wei smiled, his brow picked and then stared at Caroline, staring at the young man's eyes: "Just in About three months ago, you returned to your hometown, but just three days later, the southern purple leaf city, that is, the hometown of you and your teacher, the purple leaf city place guards the command, met the enemy to assassinate! Although later assassination Failed, but the guard of the garrison commander has died six! Of course... I am not saying that this is what you are doing... but after this happens, you disappear again! Then You have come to the emperor."

After that, Du Wei smiled at the young man: "Dear Carocar, you won't tell me, it's just a coincidence."

Kakarote stood up abruptly, and quickly stepped back a few steps. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Du Wei: "Duke, what do you want!"

Du Wei is still sitting there, smiling and looking at this young man.

It was about Du Wei’s eyes that put pressure on Kakarate too much. The two looked at each other for a while, and the young man finally couldn’t stand the pressure of Du Wei’s eyes. He finally couldn’t stand it anymore, suddenly he was in the same place. Turned, from his waist samurai robes, pulled out a short spear, and held his hands tightly...

Fortunately, he still has a trace of reason, and did not rush to point to Du Wei with a spear.

Du Wei sighed and looked at the young man: "It seems that the assassination is what you did. Your reaction has proved my guess."

"So what do you want to do? Grab me!" Carocar said with a sigh of relief, his face was stubborn and unyielding.

"No, no." Du Wei shook his head, lazily smiled and stretched out: "I am not the Imperial Ombudsman. This thing is not for me... and..." He extended his finger. Pointing at Carotel's spear, he clicked a little and smiled softly: "If I were you, put this iron stick away. You should be very clear, you are holding this thing, it is not me at all. The opponent. If I want to catch you, don't call you here, send a team of soldiers to catch you."

"You...what do you want!" Carcarot glared at Duwei.

"It's very simple." Du Wei took the tea cup in front of him and blew his breath: "You are one of the future leaders of our Roland Sword Knights, so it is as simple as I need to have a full understanding of you."

Said, he pointed to the chair in front of him again: "Now, sit down and talk, young people, tell me your story, maybe I can help you."

Kakarate hesitated for a while, the young man's heart was struggling, but in the end, he finally sat down. After all, he is not facing ordinary opponents, but the Duke of Tulips who are famous all over the world! A master of magic and martial arts are equally outstanding!

"I... my teacher, he is not a drunken fight." Kakarote gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with grief and hatred: "You are right, a six-level warrior, how is it possible? Killed by a bunch of drunks! He was murdered! The chief culprit to kill him is the garrison commander!"

"Good, you finally tell the truth." Du Wei smiled: "I like honest people, you continue."

"And... my teacher, there is no gryphon pattern on all his weapons!" When Carocall said it, suddenly a look of pride appeared on his face: "Because... he put the lion The pattern is on the body!"

Du Wei was surprised for the first time.

“Where on the body?” Du Wei thought for a moment: “Does you seem to have no such custom in your area? I only know that your locals will portray this pattern on weapons.”

"My teacher is tattooed because...he is qualified to do this!"

When Carcaro said this, there was light in his eyes!

Du Wei’s heart moved, and he had a faint hunch that he seemed to have something unexpected!

"Everything must be said from the teacher's last adventure of the Red Snow Mercenary." The teacher told me that the Red Snow Mercenary, all the people were destroyed, not because they encountered a group. Griffin...but because they found a huge secret...and in the end, everyone murdered because of guilt! To be precise, my teacher found the secret, while others wanted to kill He, take the secret!"

"Go on!" Du Wei whispered, and looked at Deron subconsciously. I found Deron, the guy who had been on the table, didn’t know when it had been put down, and his face was a bit more solemn.

"That secret... has something to do with the Griffin." Carocar's expression was a bit sorrowful.

Suddenly, he put down the spear in his hand, threw the weapon on the ground, and then extended his hands to grab his robes and pulled it hard!

With a bang, his upper body was separated, revealing a strong young man's chest.

He is very strong, strong two chest muscles, and eight abs, showing that he has undergone rigorous training.

What makes Du Wei and De Long slightly surprised is that there is a blood red tattoo on the young man's chest!

The color of the tattoo is red and red, as if it were painted with blood!

And that pattern, the eagle head body, the wings vibrate, the claws sharp, fierce abnormal!

It’s a gryphon with a claw!
