Chapter 1105: Three people become tigers (seeking a monthly ticket)
It is said that there is a proverb in the East: "Three people will turn into a tiger after one sentence."
Although many experts and scholars agree that this sentence belongs to the distant East, it is not adapted to the Western world, so it is not very effective.
But no matter what, here, a message will basically change after three hands, and after ten hands, it will have changed beyond recognition.
Especially in this era when all kinds of news still rely on word of mouth. For ordinary people, the main way for information dissemination is taverns, teahouses or roadside stalls.
The news is mainly spread by passing merchants or carmen and sailors traveling long distances. After passing it on countless times, no matter how detailed the news is, it will change.
And for the sake of eyeball effect, and to win a glass of cheap beer, these big guys who can't even spell their own names will use their brains to add more fuel and vinegar to make it as exciting, vivid, and incredible as possible.
Another way to obtain information is through bards who sell songs professionally.
In this era, being a bard is not a noble job. Only young people who are not doing their job properly, have lost their land, have no job, and are unwilling to contribute will do it.
They are similar to street storytellers, but in fact, they are just another type of storytellers. They travel around and earn a little money by singing and dancing for others.
In order to make more profits, self-employed people like this will add some content to their jokes to cater to the needs of the audience.
For example, every three or five paragraphs, there must be a goddess's advice, the princess sacrifices herself, etc. The content of the paragraphs is also moving closer to the direction of gods and ghosts, full of all kinds of feudal superstitions, and very pornographic and violent things.
content.
Of course, while attracting audiences and making money, in order not to be invited to tea by the anti-pornography and other public security departments of various countries, we must ensure that the content is healthy, progressive, and in line with mainstream values. The stories must also be added
Positive missions such as upright priests and nuns.
After all these things were mixed in, the story about Lord Lorraine slowly became more and more outrageous.
From the beginning, Lord Luo and the High Priest of the Undead battled wits and courage in order to steal back the war fortress, and they were evenly matched.
Later, the story evolved into a fight between Lord Luo and the High Priest of the Undead to steal a horse, and a horse that was very gray and very beautiful. Anyway, in history, there are countless such disasters of beauty that have harmed the country and the people.
It doesn't matter if there are one or two more.
On the contrary, this kind of story about adulterers and adulterers can add more interest and tension to the story. It is very popular among the common people. (When this story reached Adeline's ears, she was very sad.
After hearing this, Adele also felt a stomachache.)
Later, the two officially started chopping.
They fought from the human world to hell, then from hell to heaven, and finally from heaven back to the human world, fighting for three days and three nights.
In that battle, not only were many angels, fallen angels, and hell demons sacrificed... but they also destroyed countless cities and villages, and tens of thousands of civilian lives.
Finally, Lord Luo used his unique skill, the Soul-Chasing Sword of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and shouted, "Mani Pa Mi, coax you." Then he saw a flash of white light. The high priest was severely injured and screamed,
He was defeated and fled. As he was escaping, he shouted unwillingly: "I will definitely come back~!"
Of course, in the Semitic version, the roles of the victor and the loser will change. But no matter what, the story is still exciting.
In the eyes of these ordinary people who have never even left the town, Lord Lorraine has become a god-like figure. Of course, this is also the result of the Holy See's propaganda machine.
Firstly, Lord Luo is indeed a hero. Secondly, the more important reason is that everyone knows who the Pope's adulterer is.
For a woman who has fallen in love, it is better to flatter her boyfriend than to flatter her at this time, which is more pleasing to her.
"Fortunately, I wasn't impulsive just now." After learning that the person opposite turned out to be the legendary Lord Lorraine, the soldiers thought this at the same time.
Then he glanced at their officer with resentment. This guy almost brought everyone to death just now. As expected, this kind of nepotism is not reliable. I knew that this guy's IQ was not enough, but I didn't expect that he would actually waste his talents to this extent.
.
Some veteran gangsters even made up their mind: If there is a war in the future, they must shoot him with a black gun first. This bastard took everyone to the ditch and lost their lives in vain.
Lorraine pointed at Lester and said: "This is the Forbidden Curse Magister, Master Lester, the dean of Maple Leaf Danlin."
Lester glanced at the city lord from the corner of his eye and snorted with an unkind expression.
Lord Stark was so frightened that his feet softened and he almost fell over. He knew clearly that although Lord Lorraine was overbearing and very domineering, Lord Lorraine was still willing to reason with others.
When the reason was justified, no matter how angry Lord Lorraine was, he would hold his nose and admit it.
And the old guy Lester is advertised very well on the outside. He is kind and generous, and has a kindhearted teacher. But in fact, he is petty-minded and will take revenge when he wants to. If he offends him, he will immediately attack him ruthlessly without even a chance to apologize.
.
City Lord Stark did not dare to show any indifference to such a typical rogue academic, and hurriedly performed the student ceremony and said respectfully: "Student, graduate of the 811th Military Academy, pays homage to the dean."
When he heard that the city lord was also from Maple Leaf Danlin, Lester's face immediately looked much better. Although the old man had many shortcomings, the advantage of protecting his shortcomings was unanimously recognized by the whole continent, especially the shortcomings of the students of Maple Leaf Danlin.
After the Almohad incident, everyone knew who dared to lay a finger on Maple Leaf Danlin. This guy immediately killed the whole family. Unexpectedly, tens of thousands of Almohad people were killed by him instantly.
This has also led to a surge in the number of students applying for the Maple Leaf College in the past two years - the so-called fear of not committing a big crime, but being on the wrong team. These days, there is chaos, and if there is a good boss to protect you, no matter what time, you will not
Suffering.
Lester's expression softened for a moment, and he nodded and said, "Hello, kid. For someone who graduated from Maple Leaf Danlin, being a city lord is enough."
There are so many students from Maple Leaf Danlin who have become prime ministers and governors. A city lord, and a city lord of a small country, is really not enough.
Hearing that Lester relaxed his tone, Lord Stark immediately breathed a sigh of relief. But then, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This old man really doesn’t know how expensive Chai Mi is. He thinks that everyone who graduated from Maple Leaf Danlin is like him and will be waited on wherever he goes.
So what if Maple Leaf Danlin graduates? There are also a lot of people who are miserable.
There is no backstage, no background. It is not easy to mix at any time.
As a city lord like him, although he has a diploma from Maple Leaf Danlin, he still had to fight for his wealth to get it.
However, he couldn't say these words, so he coughed, and then tentatively said: "I don't know what the dean and the commander-in-chief are doing in our Bertaman. If you need help, I will definitely cooperate with you."
.”
Lorraine weighed the Lich's life box in his hand and said with a smile: "No need, come and catch the one sent by Lich Hardu, we have already caught him."
"Lich~!" Lord Stark looked at the dark metal box in Lorraine's hand, and his body swayed. There was a buzz in his head, and it took him a long time to stand still.
Tonight was really too exciting for him.
First, he heard that someone broke through the city gate and came in, and then he heard that a war fortress was raging in the city. Lord Stark was so frightened that he took his wife and children and fled.
Just when I was panicking, I got the news that the damn Lorraine was here.
Lord Stark sat on the bed, stunned for a long time, and then carefully recalled the first half of his life as if watching a movie, and realized that he had never offended Lord Lorraine, and that he had cooperated with the Flying Eagle Group.
Very good, the bonus was only 15%. Finally, I had the courage to come to the market.
As a result, I suddenly heard that there is a lich in my city. This is a fatal thing~!
What happened on Edin Island has been publicized by the Holy See and has become known to the whole world. He has also been warned by Fantino to be more vigilant.
Unexpectedly, it still fell on him.
Lord Stark said eagerly: "Where is the Lich? I will mobilize all the soldiers in the city. By the way, there are also temple priests. I..."
Lorraine waved her hands in front of his face and said: "Calm down, Lord Stark, we have killed the Lich, and Bertaman is safe now."
"What? Did you... kill it?" City Lord Stark was stunned for a moment before reacting, and said in surprise: "Kill it~! Ha, kill it~!"
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and was very happy for a while. Then he came to his senses and continued: "May I ask the dean, what on earth...is going on?"
Lester waved his hand generously and said: "I won't be able to tell for a while, but in short, we have allowed you to avoid the tragedy of Edin Island from happening again, so you don't have to thank us."
Lord Stark felt that his brain was a bit exhausted, everything happened too suddenly, but as long as the lich was killed, it would be fine.
Lord Stark knew that the old guy Lester had the best reputation, and he had an idea in a blink of an eye. He turned to face the soldiers behind him and said loudly: "Soldiers, tonight the Forbidden Magician, the Dean of Maple Leaf Danlin Academy,
Master Lester and Commander-in-Chief of the Peacekeeping Forces, Marshal Lorraine, and Chairman Leo of the Flying Eagle Group, successfully eliminated the undead lich lurking in our city and protected the peace of our Bertaman."
Lorraine sighed inwardly. Seeing how the city lord spoke without losing breath, no simple person can become a high official. Whether it is to pat his superiors or coax his subordinates, he must know how to do both. He is not like someone from a certain island country.
It's the same as the congressman, as long as you have a good father.
Lord Stark said: "Let us thank them, long live Dean Lester~!"
"Long live~!" Although the soldiers didn't fully understand it for a moment, it didn't stop them from following the city lord's footsteps.
Thousands of soldiers raised their arms or weapons, shouting at Lester and others.
Looking at the excited expressions of the soldiers in front of me (anyone who sees the war fortress will not be too calm), the excited shouts (the boss shouted if they dare not shout), and the reverent eyes (this old guy is a mage, a mage is
What, monster~!).
Lester was greatly relieved, straightened his back, stroked his long beard, and nodded with an indifferent expression.
He said flatly: "This is what we should do. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. It is our unshirkable responsibility to maintain peace on the mainland."
Lord Stark flattered him and said, "What the dean said is absolutely true. The students will not dare or forget the lessons they taught."
Lester felt that the city lord in front of him became more and more pleasing to his eyes. Among the half of the graduate students he took, there was no one as considerate as this guy.
Lester patted Lord Stark on the shoulder with approval and said: "Okay, very good, I will let Maple Leaf Danlin make a report. Things are so smooth, and you will naturally have a share of the credit."
Lord Stark felt as if he had been hit by an official hat falling from the sky at this moment. Being able to have a relationship with Lester was a great political resource.
Lord Stark immediately said solemnly: "There, this is all the credit of you, Dean. Students dare not take credit. Dean, please let the students. I have to fulfill my responsibilities as a landlord, entertain the principle and the Commander-in-Chief, His Highness, on our behalf."
Bertaman expressed his gratitude to hundreds of thousands of people."
Lorraine waved his hand and said: "No need, as long as the city lord is willing, we have to set off immediately to the next place to capture the lich."
Lord Stark said: "It doesn't matter if it's just for one night, right?"
Lester shook his head and said: "We are racing against time. For the safety of the mainland, we have to race against time."
"Dean, you care about the whole continent, are not afraid of hard work, and are upright and upright. You are really a role model for the students."
Lorraine curled her lips in boredom and thought to herself that this old guy was really easy to coax, and he was so happy with just two nice words, but when he first pointed it at himself, he pouted like a donkey.
Lorraine waved to the war fortress to come down and said: "By the way, Lord City Lord."
Lord Stark said urgently: "Sir, please tell me."
Lorraine thought for a while and said: "Thank you for taking care of the Flying Eagle Group. I have a few people here to help. Please don't bother the city lord in the future."
Lord Stark immediately patted his chest and reassured, "Please rest assured, sir. This small favor is nothing to worry about. In fact, General Hildo and I are close friends. He often mentions to me the experience of working with sir."
Lorraine grinned and thought to herself: That guy Hildo definitely didn't say anything good about him.
A few days later, a palace attendant held a wooden box in his hand and walked down the luxurious corridor of Ruman Palace with his head bowed submissively.
In front of him was Cardinal Russell, the imperial prime minister who had been in power for more than ten years and was deeply trusted by Emperor Rudelun.
Prime Minister Russell is wearing a crimson bishop's robe with gold trim, the golden eagle national emblem of the Ruman Empire on his chest, and the platinum cross of the Holy See of Light hanging around his neck. At the same time, he represents the two most powerful organizations on the continent.
The Prime Minister looked solemn and solemn, with the tolerance and compassion of a clergyman.
The Royal Guardsmen in the corridor bowed to the Prime Minister.
Prime Minister Russell raised his hand wrapped with a silver cross necklace and made a blessing gesture to the Guards.
From this action, we can see that the Prime Minister himself is in a very good mood at this moment.
The Prime Minister and his attendants came to a tall wooden door at the end of the corridor. The Guards soldiers in front of the door opened the door and let Russell in without any notice.
The old palace steward glanced at Russell and nodded slightly.
Russell didn't dare to be disrespectful and nodded in return. No one dared to be disrespectful to this old man who had been taking care of Emperor Rudrun since he wore crotchless pants.
Emperor Rudrun was leaning on his throne and working. When he saw Russell, he threw down the documents in his hand, rubbed his forehead, and said: "You'd better bring some good news, my dear Russell.
Lately I’ve been almost annoyed to death by the moaning noises from below.”
"As you wish, congratulations, Your Majesty," Russell stroked his chest and bowed.
"Oh?" Emperor Rudelun sat up straight.
Russell smiled and said: "The Governor of Lorraine killed a lich and specially sent the lich's phylactery to His Majesty."
"Ha~!" Russell laughed excitedly, jumped up from his chair, and said, "I knew this kid wouldn't let me down. Give it to me quickly."
The attendant brought the box to Emperor Rudelun.
Rudrun couldn't wait to open the box, spread his hands and grabbed the dark life box inside.
Russell hurriedly said: "Be careful, it's very...cold, Your Majesty."
Before Russell could speak, Emperor Rudrun had already grabbed the Lich's phylactery and threw it back into the box.
Just like Russell said, the Lich's phylactery is very cold, so cold that you can't even hold it.
Rudrun put a piece of cloth in his hand, took the phylactery in front of his eyes and observed it carefully, saying: "I can't believe there is a lich in it."
Russell said: "Your Majesty, this lich has been purified by the Governor of Lorraine, and now it is just an iron block."
Emperor Rudrun had some regret on his face, shook the phylactery in his hand, and asked, "How on earth was this thing made?"
Russell spread his hands helplessly and said: "So far, this is still a secret that is only mastered by a few undead creatures."
Rudrun looked at the life box carefully for a while, then threw it to the attendant beside him and said: "Put this in the display cabinet prepared in the hall, right next to the cabinet prepared to contain Hadou's head. I will give it to him tomorrow.
Everyone, take a look."
The nearest waiter responded, bowed and stepped back.
Emperor Rudelun clapped his hands and said: "It's a pity that it's not the one who caused trouble on Edin Island."
Russell said: "Capturing a lich alive will be more helpful to us."
"I know, my dear Prime Minister." Rudrun curled his lips. This action was almost exactly the same as what Leo saw.
Russell said: "The good news doesn't stop there. Through the coordination of the Pope, Fantino has agreed to send several monks from the monastery to strengthen the defense of key areas. With them here, the harm of the lich can be reduced
a lot of.
The governor of Salin has just reported that they have discovered the secret of a Hadou remnant who destroyed the grain storage and found traces of a suspected lich. Now the entire province is mobilizing to pursue the hunt. Governor Lorraine and Master Lester have urgently arrived.
Rushed over."
Rudelun was overjoyed and said: "Send a telegram to the governor of Salin and ask him to fully cooperate with that boy from Lorraine to catch the lich. That boy is a professional."
"Yes." Russell bowed to accept the order and said: "In addition, the peacekeeping force came to report that our negotiations with the remaining forces of the Southern Army are about to achieve the final result. Archduke Julius said that once an agreement is reached, he will immediately report to His Majesty for instructions.
.It seems that this war will not last long, we can put more energy on hunting down the infiltrating lich."
Emperor Rudrun was stunned for a moment and murmured: "Is it finally over? I suddenly had an unreal feeling.
Russell chuckled and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty. One last thing. After this winter and our iron cage eradication of the remaining barbarians in the north, I believe there won't be many left.
They are now retreating into the mountains, and I think we can prepare from now on to launch a final attack on the remaining barbarians after the ice and snow melt in the spring, and completely eliminate the northern border troubles."
