Goddess Wanhua Mirror

However, Lu De also knew that most of the feudal lords in this world were military nobles, and they were obliged to lead their private army to serve the king when the king raised his troops.Therefore, in terms of ethos, martial arts are generally valued over literature, and many noble families can't wait to let their children start practicing martial arts as soon as they can learn to walk.

As for brains, IQ and EQ are indeed "plus points", but they are not the main basis for judging the selection of heirs.As long as it is not purely mentally handicapped, the one who can fight the most is usually chosen.

In the case of the Coke family, only the three-year-old Lothar remained as the heir.The boy won the knighthood that the old knight paid for with his life, but he also lost his right to choose the future. He must become a knight who is good at fighting, or possess magical talent and be able to create more powerful fireballs.

Under such prerequisites, the old lady would naturally not be willing to let the only remaining male of the Coke family learn some civilian professional skills.

But after visiting around, the old lady wanted to send her daughter Lisa to study here.Her daughter, who ran around behind her three mischievous brothers since she was a child, has a personality like a tomboy, not at all what a girl should be, which gave the old lady a headache.

The old lady is a very traditional woman. Her grandfather was once a baron, and she lived in her grandfather's house since she was a child. Under the influence of her grandmother, although she is not different from the common people, she has also developed some deep-rooted old ideas.

Mrs. Sirina still remembers that when the dead girl was six years old, she played with other children in her hometown town, and because the other children said something bad about Old Cork, she rushed up and beat him up. a meal.

On the one hand, the old lady was pleased that her daughter defended her father's reputation, but she very much disapproved of her behavior that violated the etiquette of a lady. She was afraid that if she could not correct it, she would not be able to marry in the future!

Just after visiting the school, the old lady found that the two majors of clothing and cooking are very suitable for noble ladies to master, so she deliberately sent Lisa over to let her undergo a "lady transformation".

"Master, you don't know that my daughter has been spoiled by her father and brothers since she was a child. She doesn't look like a lady at all. She roams around the mountains and plains like a wild monkey every day. I'm not afraid of you hearing the joke, she is! Don't touch anything that a girl should know!"

"Uh... I don't think it's wrong for the child to be lively, and Qianyuan is a good girl with a kind heart."

"But the problem is that she is already twelve this year, and she will be an adult in two years! With her current appearance, let alone a man from a noble family, she would not be willing to marry a man from a commoner family. A wife who knows no housework, is it possible that she wants to be a knight like a man?"

"It seems...it's not impossible."

As Lude said, he subconsciously glanced at the "big green pepper" surrounded by many female students not far away.Shaluo, the female knight, is actually an oddball among the noble women.The conservative Mrs. Sirina is the representative of most contemporary women.

The reason why Shaluo was able to be such a "rare species" was that she was indeed outstanding in talent, the kind of martial arts wizard who was one in a million, and among her peers, there were only a handful of them who could beat her.But the most important thing is that her father and grandfather doted on her. Otherwise, no matter how talented Sha Luo was, she wouldn't be able to be a knight now if she was in another less enlightened family.

It is worth mentioning that because Shaluo has always been naked and wears men's armor, Mrs. Sirina, who was born in the south and is relatively shy to the northern aristocratic circle, has always regarded her as a noble son with a clean shaven beard , and even wanted to introduce her daughter Lisa to me.

Besides the old lady, quite a few of the little girls around her, like Sirina, don't know that this kind and handsome knight brother is actually a girl just like them.

If Sha Luo knew that she had been mistaken for a man "again", she would not be able to eat all kinds of biscuits and egg tarts offered to her by the female students with a relaxed expression like now.

In any case, the old lady at least has the idea to send her daughter here first, and Baron Lothar is still young, so it won't be too late to lure people into the pit when they open up some new subjects that might be of interest to the aristocratic group!

After the visit, the international students directly moved into the dormitory, and the class officially started the day after tomorrow. Mrs. Sirina invited Sha Luo and others to the residence as guests, and did a little bit of the friendship of the landlord for the son of the lord, Lu De They were also invited to go with them.

And only then did the old lady finally realize that she should call Sha Luo "Miss" instead of "Master".Relying on her many years of self-cultivation, the old lady kept her expression from revealing any flaws.

It is said that it is a banquet, but in fact, the old lady cooks for everyone and cooks some special dishes for everyone.The nobles of the lower class are no more particular than the upper class, not to mention the current conditions are really limited, the key is to have the intention in place.

At the dinner, Mrs. Sirina showed quite flexible social skills. She figured out Shaluo's temper in a few words, and made her very happy. She also inquired about a lot of news about the northern aristocratic circle by means of small talk. Lu De, who has seriously studied criminal investigation, calls himself an expert in his heart.

As far as the level of this set of words is concerned, the people of Chaoyang District are well placed on the earth!

Through Sha Luo's mouth, the old lady had a general understanding of the distribution of the noble class in the northern region. To her somewhat surprise, Lude beside him not only had the title of saint, but also seemed to have good relations with several great lords in the north. His personal relationship belongs to the kind of celebrity who has both sides.

The Oyster Harbor plague that happened not long ago made the reputation of Ludd and the God of Medicine in the entire kingdom rapidly increase.

The old lady has been tortured by nightmares for more than a year. These things happened during the period when she was insane. Now, listening to the witnesses and the deity of the person involved tell her the details of the process, one can imagine the shock, and the evaluation of Lu De in her heart Inevitably, it has risen to more than one level.And building a good relationship with such a respected "Zhang Zhe (although he looks young)" will be an extremely powerful help for her son's future territorial management and network expansion.

It seems that her daughter's enrollment has been implemented as soon as possible.

End of this chapter

While Luther was still eating at the baron's house, in the cell of the guard's detention center, the hungry Mayne was tossing and turning on a hard bed covered with hay.

It has been three days since he was imprisoned in this ghostly place. Except for Lu De who came for an interrogation, for most of the rest of the time, the people outside the cell ignored him as if they were deliberately forgetting him.

This feeling of being put on PLAY did not make Maien feel at all relaxed, but instead felt extremely tormented by waiting.

He had a hunch that most of the time he would not survive this time. The matter of driving the undead to harm people was discovered. It is impossible for the old lady who regained consciousness to let him go because of the blood relationship separated by several generations. Bad relatives.

If there is no accident, he will be hanged on a rack in public on a sunny afternoon, or he will be treated as a wizard and enjoy a high-standard fire at the stake.In short, the evidence of the crime is convincing, and he will be justified no matter how he is dealt with.

Mine is not the kind of vicious villain who is not afraid of death, but he is more concerned about whether he can keep his son Monk than his own life.The unadulterated paternal love is probably one of the few bright spots in this scumbag.

Unable to sleep, Mayen tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep peacefully because of his mental tension, like a frightened bird, whenever there was any disturbance around him, he would jump up from the haystack in surprise.

I don't know what time it is at night. Suddenly, Maien faintly heard footsteps approaching his cell. It seemed to be the guarding jailer, but it was slightly different from the sound that he could always hear a few days ago. The most important thing was , it was the other party who obviously stopped outside his door.

"Who is at the door? Are you going to interrogate me again? Could it be..."

Mayen, who had been doing bad things all his life, was now terribly afraid of ghosts knocking on his door, and the fear tormented him. This kind of panic state of mind was the same as those innocent people who were tortured by him back then.

At this time, Maien heard the sound of the door bolt turning, which meant that someone outside was about to open the door and come in.Frightened, he quickly turned over, turned his back to the door and continued to pretend to be asleep.

Soon, the cell door was knocked, and a gust of wind blew past, causing Mayen to shiver subconsciously. The high-speed beating of his own heart was as deafening to his senses as a drum.

The person who entered the room was very quiet and did not carry a light source such as a lantern, which made Maien realize that the other party was not a jailer.

And just as he was anxiously guessing the other party's identity, a cold, hoarse but very familiar voice came from behind Mayen.

"How long are you going to pretend to be asleep? Myne."

"This voice... is Master Necromancer!"

Mai En never thought that one day he would be so moved that his eyes almost filled with tears after hearing this voice of a dead person that was enough to make ordinary people feel physically uncomfortable, it was no less than the sound of nature.Although I don't know why this big cadre of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand appeared here, but for Mai En who is currently in prison, it is no less than stealing the gods!

"My lord, master, grandpa... you've come!"

With the help of a little light, Mayen, who turned over from the hard plank bed, saw the appearance of the person coming. He was dressed in a light-absorbing jet-black robe, and under the hood trimmed with gold trim was a strange metal mask with vertical pupils carved on it.Mai En had only seen one in this cult-like outfit in his life, and that was the Necromancer, a senior cadre of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand.

Seeing the other party suddenly appear here, Mayen, who originally thought he was dead, suddenly rekindled the fire of hope in his heart.

"My lord, are you here to save me?"

"Save you? You answer me first, where is my death slave?"

"Uh, this..."

Hearing the Necromancer asking about the Death Slave, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Mayne's face.

The so-called "death slave" was the undead that possessed the old lady's dream, and was the accomplice lent to Maien by the necromancer.

On the surface, Mayne actively treated her, but secretly used the evil spirit to make the old lady haunted by nightmares, and died of mental and physical emaciation caused by excessive grief.The efficiency of this method is indeed slower than poisoning and assassination, but the advantage is that it will not leave any clues, and he can also gain the little baron's trust by doing superficial tricks.

The two parties agreed that after the matter was completed, Mayne would return the dead slave, and at the same time owed the necromancer a favor, and would help him with things in the barony in the future.

However, the plan did not change quickly. The old lady persisted for more than a year under the condition of the dead in a dream, and finally reached the fief on the northern border, and ran into such a stubborn stubble like Lu De.

Mayne didn't know how Lude discovered the evil spirit, but when the other party interrogated him, he directly mentioned the name of necromancer, combined with the fact that the necromancer himself asked where his death slave went?It is not difficult for Meyer to deduce that the death slave who should have possessed the old lady's dream should have been eliminated by Lude.

Thinking of this, Mayen, driven by the desire to survive, began to think quickly about how to use the power of the necromancer to get out of trouble.

"My lord, your death slave was eliminated by the priest of the local church, and I was also implicated in this, so I was imprisoned in this ghost place."

"Get rid of it? This is impossible! My death slave is not an ordinary undead. As long as he sneaks into the dream, even the Pope of the Holy Church of Light will not be able to see any clues. A priest of a small third-rate sect, where does he have such ability? ?”

"My lord, everything I said is true. When the priest named Lude brought people to arrest me, he laughed at me and said that it was a small trick, and it couldn't be hidden from his eyes. And I obviously didn't recruit anything, so he Said the name of your necromancer in front of me, and said, and said..."

"What else did he say?"

Hearing the undead warlock's tone, there was obviously a hint of displeasure, and a glimmer of joy secretly flashed in Mayne's heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.

It's not a short time since Mai En joined the Brotherhood of the Black Hand. Although it has always been a low-level peripheral organization, all colleagues who have been in contact with it know that Master Necromancer, one of the senior cadres, has two characteristics.

One is mysterious. He always wears the mask that is said to be an artifact on his face. It is rumored that no one in the entire organization has seen his true face. It all depends on his unique ability as a signboard.

And another feature that is not easy to say in front of the person is that the undead warlock has a very small mind, especially he can't stand ridicule and sarcasm. Anyone who dares to speak ill of him, once let him know, will not live for three years. sky!

Unless he speaks ill of this person, he can't beat him!

In view of this, in order to bring trouble to the east, Mai En deliberately set fire in front of the necromancer, and made up a bunch of radical remarks for Lu De with embellishments.The necromancer just listened quietly the whole time, but Maien could clearly feel that the temperature in the cell was obviously getting lower.

And this kind of change is not only reflected in the atmosphere, Mayen started to tremble as he spoke, with white gas coming out of his mouth...

PS: For two days in a row, Calvin really didn’t have any ideas, and the other was that the day and night were reversed for nearly three weeks, and his body couldn’t stand it anymore.

By the way, I went to see the premiere of "King Kong River" yesterday morning. I was hesitant at first because of Guan Hu, but I saw Guo Fan and Wu Jing, who still talked about resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, so I went to watch it, thinking that maybe I could Get inspired.As a result, after watching it, I felt pretty good when I first came out of the cinema. Although the three perspectives of a plot are suspected of being lazy, and there are too many repeated shots, but the first impression of the overall look and feel is not bad, and it may even lead to the conclusion that this is a good movie. illusion.

But when I got home and sat down, the more I thought about many of the settings in the plot, the more I felt something was wrong, so I discussed with the writers who also went to the movie, and found that I was not the only one who felt this way.

End of this chapter

Although it is not clear why Master Necromancer appeared here, the arrival of the other party undoubtedly gave Mayn hope for life, and even gave him the idea of ​​"using strength to make a comeback".

If it was just him and the dozens of younger brothers under him, Maien would definitely not take the initiative to provoke Lu De.After all, the scene of that day is still fresh in his memory.

Lude first healed the three crippled by rebirth with a broken hand, and then gave them three buffs, knocking Mayn and his little brothers to the ground, as easily as cutting them with a sickle. wheat.

But now that the necromancer is here, Maien doesn't know the full strength of this boss, but he has heard many rumors about him. He knows that he is the strongest assassin in the entire Brotherhood of the Black Hand, and he never misses orders. There are countless powerful people who died in his hands, and there are many powerful priests among them.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, the priest is the nemesis of the undead, but this is mainly in the case of a head-on confrontation between the two sides. The magic with the sacred attribute can indeed deal tons of damage to the undead.

But the undead have the ability to enter dreams, this trick is almost useless in frontal combat, but it is always hard to guard against when used for assassination.

Many priests who were killed by necromancers died carelessly. In places without the protection of holy power, the slaves of necromancers caught the opportunity and sneaked into dreams to strangle their souls.

Powerful power and distorted mentality make necromancers treat other people's lives like nothing, and kill people if they don't like them.But after getting in touch with Mayen, he discovered that this uncle is actually a good donkey, as long as he flatters him well, it's actually not difficult to serve him!

If the necromancer is willing to help him get rid of Lude and the three ruthless knights, Maien believes that he has the ability to regain control of everything.

You must know that in order to bribe the court servants, Mai En almost spent all the ill-gotten gains he had saved for most of his life, and only then did he get himself the position of acting consul.If he just escaped in such a desperate way, with only one rotten life left, what is the difference between being dead and dead?

Therefore, Mai En, who was not reconciled to such a failure, had a gambler's mentality, and decided to use the necromancer to help him turn the tables.

And under his fanning, the narrow-minded necromancer just hated Lude who dared to look down on him.

Kneeling on one knee in front of him, Mai En felt the surrounding air getting colder and colder. He looked up tremblingly, only to be shocked to find that the mask on Master Necromancer's face had actually "lived".Huge red vertical pupils protruded from the mask, covered with spider web-like bloodshot eyes, just staring at them for a moment, Myen trembled all over, the expression on his face seemed to witness something beyond imagination Horror.

Noticing Mayne's reaction, the furious necromancer realized that he had lost his composure just now, and subconsciously activated the ability of the artifact mask.So the effect was retracted silently, and Meyen suddenly collapsed on the ground, and a smell of urine filled the small cell.

"Hmph, weakling! Does this make you pee your pants?"

"My lord, I..."

"Stop talking nonsense! Tell me, where is that Lude?"

At the same time, on the other side, Lude, who had just come out of the lord's house, walked slowly back to the temple alone. The distance of a few hundred meters in a straight line was all digested after assisting the meal.

After nightfall, the town is dark and quiet. Looking at the street, a few sparse street lights can't fully illuminate the road, and there's not even half a person in sight.

The living standards of the townspeople have indeed improved significantly in the past few years, but the farmers who have to farm during the day are used to resting at sunset, so there is basically no nightlife, and the taverns are full of mercenaries and adventurers from other places. This situation makes Lu De feel a little nostalgic for his hometown far away on the earth, and miss the happy days of going to the night market with his colleagues, relatives and friends.

"There is a long way to go, a long way to go..."

Shaking his head and sighing old-fashionedly, Lu De was about to take a step when he suddenly felt an unusual wind blowing, and then saw a figure coming out of the darkness, blocking in front of him.

"You are Lude?"

"I'm the only one in this town. You should be right."

Seeing that the man in black in front of him was obviously not a good person, Lu De pretended to be calm and looked directly at him, subconsciously pressing his right hand on his waist.

Under the priest's robe was originally his special scepter, that is, the "fire unicorn" that the three sisters tailored for him.But that thing weighed more than ten kilograms, and Lu De didn't carry it with him.

But even though he was alone and didn't bring anyone with him, Lude was not without the ability to protect himself.The big deal is to use magical magic to put a turtle shell on the spot, and then yell for help. This is the center of the town, and the straight-line distance from the temple is less than 300 meters. The reinforcements can arrive at the scene in minutes.

So Lude, who was able to cast divine spells instantly, didn't panic at all, and planned to figure out the details of the guy in front of him with a routine before doing anything.

"What do you call it? This friend."

"Hmph! You don't need to know my name, and I won't waste any time talking to a dead person. Repent for your offending the strong!"

It was rare to meet a villain who didn't talk too much, and Lu De was startled, but the man in black on the opposite side didn't see any movement after finishing his ruthless words, and just stood there blankly. An eerie silence.

Lude looked at the other party suspiciously. At this time, the dark clouds in the night sky dispersed, revealing the bright moonlight shining on the ground. Only then did Lude realize that the man in black was wearing a very strange mask under the hood, which seemed to be made of some kind of metal. It was built, but in the center there was a protruding giant eyeball "staring" at him.

This awkward silence lasted for several minutes. The man in black didn't move, and Lude also cooperated very well. It wasn't until he hiccupped because he was too full from dinner that the man in black realized that the situation seemed to be Something is wrong.

"You, why didn't you respond?"

"Should I...should I give you any response?"

Lu De asked the other party back with a smile. The expression on his face looked very relaxed, but his heart was actually much more nervous than before.Because he has already seen that the mask on the face of the man in black is an out-and-out divine weapon. If he hadn't had the original fire body protection and could be immune to all magical damage, he might have been GG at this moment. up.

So the smile on Lude's face turned into a sneer, and he stretched out his hand to take off his magic robe, revealing his rather strong body that he had trained in the past three years. Then he put seven layers of gain BUFF on himself on the spot, and went straight to the necromancer who was still stunned.

"Small tricks! How dare you play tricks in front of the master!"

End of this chapter

The shrill scream pierced the night sky, waking up many townspeople who had fallen asleep or were about to fall asleep.Judging by the sound alone, everyone subconsciously thought it was another fight. With more and more adventurers and mercenaries in the town, this kind of situation has become commonplace now.
