Chapter 13 Apple Town (Part 2)
Old John, who had not yet gotten rid of the effect of the curse, struggled to look clearly at Ladislaus standing in front of him.
"Aha, a noble, maybe a warlock, did you cast those magic spells just now?" Ladislaus's handsome appearance and the magic he just used made it easy for Old John to guess some simple information.
"Do you still hate the French, or have you completely given up on everything in the past?"
Instead of answering the question that had an obvious answer and would allow the opponent to find his rhythm, Ladislaus continued to press and punch the opponent in the brain.
"Why are the questions asked by those guys 30 years ago exactly the same? How could there be a noble like you who also believes in the Lady of the Plague? As I said, although I still respect the Lady of the Plague, I am also very grateful to you for saving my life today.
But I have no intention of participating in His plans or actions anymore. I have repaid your life-saving grace to Lady Plague during countless battles in Naples." Old John expressed his attitude without hesitation. After all, he is pious.
The Plague Lady's followers are not for anyone in their right mind to become.
"Oh, why? If Lady Plague hadn't shown off her power thirty years ago, how could the Kingdom of Naples be revived? The French might still be entrenched in all of Italy." Ladislaus, who was quite satisfied with the answer, continued.
asked with interest.
"ZTE? Less than ten years after the plague, Naples fell into the hands of Spain and is now the property of the Habsburg family. If it hadn't been for the plague that caused Naples to lose more than one-third of its population, how could we have done it?
You can only let others slaughter you."
"So you are also opposed to the Warlock Royal Family?" Sensing the patriotism of the other party, Ladislaus was a little worried whether Old John's Italian national feelings would be too strong.
"The Habsburg family is certainly not a good thing, but after all, they always wait for their name to be justified before taking action. If the King of Naples, Ferrandino, hadn't been desperate and openly allied with the Ottoman Sultan, how could he have been besieged by the world?
Ending. Besides, over the years, the acting Archduke of Habsburg in Vienna has always treated all members of the Holy Roman Empire fairly, whether they are German-speaking or Italian-speaking members. I have no objection to being regarded as a member of the Holy Roman Empire, because
There is no problem for them to serve, and it will be no problem if they are dealing with the French." Some old John, who had a taste of Ladislaus's origins, replied without losing any flexibility.
"Congratulations, from now on you can serve a force that can deal with the French." Lasslaus nodded slightly with satisfaction.
Then Ladislaus introduced his status and strength in the Habsburg Group to Old John. After some deception, Old John was really stunned by Ladislaus's relationship with the Warlock Royal Family.
, although we also know that Ladislaus is definitely not a direct member of the royal family, but his status as a warlock is the best guarantee for his status.
Those locals who had families and businesses had no choice but to go home and escape with their families when they thought of the conquest army. Moreover, it was not an organized and planned riot, so even some bold people could only go to find enemies or rob a few local merchants.
There is still some subconscious scruples about authority, but Ladislaus, who was originally a fugitive, did not panic and wanted to make a small fortune first.
Old John, who had nothing to offer, did not go home to tidy up, and immediately rushed to the town hall with Ladislaus and Sirica according to the instructions of the new owner. The position of town guard captain in this town was already in the hands of the Jobs family.
After three generations and fifty years, even the French army's crossing has not changed this power structure. Therefore, the town hall is actually the mansion of the Jobs family. It has always been home to a dozen law enforcement warriors and a dozen people from the Jobs family. But today among the law enforcement warriors
The elite have been wiped out in the tavern, except for Pastor Steven himself. And he fled directly outside the town, and no one could escape to report the news.
When the Ladislaus trio entered the town hall, the remaining law enforcement warriors didn't understand what was happening. These weaklings who were less than level 5 were captured by Boss Sirica and Ladislaus.
He killed a few of those who were chopping vegetables at the gate. The three warriors who resisted in the treasury room of the town hall were all driven out by Ladislaus's fireball technique. The merciless Sirica boss blocked the door and ignored his pleas.
, slit their throats one by one.
A total of eight members of the Jobs family who wanted to escape were blocked by Old John at the back door. After Old John cast a ranger spell - level 2 summoned creature, he knocked down Pastor Steve's younger brother who was the fastest.
, they just knelt on the ground one by one and captured him without mercy.
After Ladislaus inserted the "invitation to the feast" into the hearts of the dead warriors one by one, he went into the living room to evaluate the value of the indoor artworks. Naturally, professionals would do the dirty work.
How could several women and children endure the professional skills of Sirica, the boss who was a top murderer even on the street? Before Ladislaus entered the bedroom to further evaluate the family portraits painted by local painters, Mrs. Steve
The right path of cooperation and survival has been chosen, but the tears on the lady's face showed that she seemed to have some wrong ideas at the beginning, forcing Boss Sirica to make some warnings that were completely unnecessary.
Ladislaus left Sirica to take care of the prisoners who were tied together. He and Old John entered the iron door of the vault that the lady opened. Because the lady could not tell clearly what was going on inside, Ladislaus had no choice but to
Her father, Pastor Steve's father-in-law, was sent to confirm the safety. Of course, it was a pity that the father-in-law, howling and being thrown into the vault, "cleared" the two electric shock traps and rolled away silently.
in the corner.
Ladislaus didn't care for himself, so his biological father was held by Ladislaus and Old John like a sack, and he started counting "1,2..." and started crying again.
The lady poured a bottle of potion for treating minor injuries into the unfortunate old man. After all, the two bottles for treating minor injuries and half a dozen for treating minor injuries in the vault satisfied the sorcerer. This bottle of his new property only left a crack on his finger.
Already.
There are also more than a dozen bottles of so-called zoo series potions such as Cat's Elegance, Fox's Cunning, Eagle's Brilliance, Owl's Insight, etc., which also greatly replenished Ladislaus's unstocked battle pocket that had been worrying him since his escape.
In the treasury that can obtain Wojin's divine favor, the most pure gems and gold coins, a whole bag of obsidian and two pieces of high-quality azure hearts, let Ladislas be satisfied with more than five hundred towers.
Ladislaus himself received more than two thousand talers of gold coins.
Ladislaus, who left the town hall and immediately hit the road, said to Old John who was sitting on the other horse: "Being able to use level two creature summons, it's really not a fluke that you were able to survive the siege for so long. Old John, you are actually
You are an 11th-level ranger. Don't worry, you are a mid-level professional. I will guarantee your future as a knight. When you get to Vienna or Madrid, I will find you a wife worthy of you, and you will start a new noble family."
In principle, mid-level illegal professionals and semi-aristocratic knights can be considered to have almost the same weight. However, in order to truly transform one's skills into a knighthood that can benefit future generations, one still has to find the right path and work hard for more than ten years.
When Old John saw the pie, he naturally tried his best to promise that he would serve the emperor, Ladislaus, and the just cause of Habsburg with all his heart.
The once decadent old man was rekindled by blood.
Strength 8, Agility 13, Constitution 10, Intelligence 10, Perception 14, Charisma 9.
Ladislaus gets a new squire after completing the tavern encounter.
Ladislaus, who saw his data, sighed that he could actually become a very promising professional spellcaster, but it was a pity that priest or druid skills were not accessible to ordinary people.
In addition to the two pack horses snatched from the town hall, one of the four pack horses is now specially used to carry two heavy pockets of wealth, which only the big trees on the list can enjoy with peace of mind.
"By the way, my bosses and I are quite tolerant when it comes to matters of faith, but we are not so tolerant that even Lady Plague is among them. Since you are no longer willing to serve Him, what is the word "respect" for in the future?
Don't use it anymore. When you get to a safe place, please consider your beliefs again." Ladislaus did not forget this blow in the end.
In order to repay the life-saving grace and for the future hinted by Ladislaus, Old John rode Bishop Allen's Italian pony decorated with fine satin and started to travel around the world again.
It's just that this time there is no more passion and dreams of young people, it's just for survival and wealth, and maybe the future in dreams.
