At this time, they still don't know how much their fateful encounter will leave a mark in Ruman's history and will become a classic and legend that will be sung from generation to generation.
And from this starting point, the curtain of history slowly opened.
The battlefield is littered with corpses, the broken flags fluttering, the knights staggering forward in broken armor, the horses falling to the ground in mourning, the gorgeous palaces collapsing in the soaring flames, and the peerless enchanting and affectionate figures in the wind.
Looking back...
The ancient and huge empire of Ruman once again began its turmoil. On the big stage of history, justice and evil, light and darkness, loyalty and betrayal... all appeared on the stage one after another, and jointly performed this century-long tragic song of blood.
The historian Ruman wrote the following words in the most elegant ancient style: In the autumn of 831 of the Julian calendar, a comet appeared in the north. The divine lord, Leo the Great, was in danger and met the Duke on a forest path.
Lorraine thought for a while and decided to educate the fat little thief opposite.
He said coldly: "Being a robber also requires the rules of being a robber. Not only that, we also need to have a name of justice and a loud slogan. How can anyone like you just say that you are going to rob?"
The little boy was stunned: "Huh?"
Lorraine sneered and said, "Do you have a level 4 or 6 robbery qualification certificate issued by the International Robbery Qualification Committee?"
"Ah?" The little boy was stunned. Seeing Lorraine's contemptuous eyes, he unconsciously became discouraged and said, "Do you still need to apply for a certificate?"
Lorraine looked up at the sky and said disdainfully: "Nonsense~! If you don't get a license for robbery, and everyone just robs casually, the world will not be in chaos. In the Age of Discovery, the gangsters in the British Empire relied on issuing robbery licenses to rob.
The bandits incorporated standardization, institutionalization, enterpriseization, and international management to create a world power. Uh... you don't need to worry about the latter. Just know it."
The little boy touched the back of his head, looked at his toes in shame, and said: "I...I didn't know that robbery requires a certificate~!"
Lorraine snorted coldly, and then said: "Do you have the reputation and slogan of justice? At least when you go out, you should tell the other party that you have done a lot of infrastructure work, such as I opened this mountain and this
I planted the tree and so on. Then tell them what to do
Make charitable donations. It's like passing by and leaving money for shopping. Finally, it is shameful to point out that people who have no public conscience will make us very angry and the consequences will be very serious. Tell them, 'If you have a broken tooth, say no'
The word, "Kill with a big knife but not bury", do you understand?"
The little boy was already stunned and murmured: "Is this still going to happen? I thought as long as...
"Do you think you can work with just a knife?" Lorraine glanced at the little boy with disdain, interrupted him, and said: "How else can I say that you guys who have not been trained and have not obtained certificates are of low quality?
Oh~! It’s because of you little thieves that the reputation of our promising profession has been ruined.”
The little boy's hostility was now gone.
His big eyes rolled, and then he humbly asked for advice: "Then...then what do you think of the robbery? If you can tell me, I will...I will let you go."
Lorraine sighed and said: "Okay, Master, I have nothing to do today, so I will teach you to be a good boy. Who knows that I am a kind-hearted person."
Next to him, Baldo grinned and thought to himself: Good Samaritan? How can any kind person teach children how to rob? This is too wicked of the young master.
Lorraine stretched out her finger and said: "Robbery is a great and sacred art. As a qualified and trained professional robber.
First of all, when you see a target, you need to know whether it is a fat sheep? Where is the valuable thing hidden?
Second, you need to know whether it is a target that you can attack. Can you kill it? Could it be a bait deliberately set by the officers and soldiers, or other enemies that you cannot offend?
Third, when you have identified the fat sheep and the risk is not high, you can indeed make a fortune. You should also pay attention to the fact that when robbing, you must be brave and be the first to rush forward. Otherwise, those bastard boys will definitely
His hands and feet would be unclean and he would take and hide it privately.
Fourth, after you succeed, you must keep your loyalty and be the last to evacuate. Because as long as one of the younger brothers fails to evacuate and is caught, as long as that guy confesses, you will all be punished.
Fifth, when dividing the stolen goods, you must strictly abide by the rules, accurately value all the stolen goods, and distribute them equally. Otherwise, those guys will definitely start a fight.
This is called a thief's right."
When Lorraine said this, she remembered something and couldn't help but pause for a moment, and then continued: "These are mentioned in the elementary popular textbook on robbery written by a well-known philosopher in our area named Zhuangzi.
Only if you can do these five things can you be considered a little robber.
But to become a new generation of pirate leader who is knowledgeable, cultured, ideal and moral, it is not enough to just do these five things."
"Ah? There's more?" The fat little boy was dumbfounded. He opened his mouth wide, revealing two rows of tiny white teeth, and looked at Lorraine blankly.
Behind him, Vera was also stunned. She held her heart in both hands, and the stars were shining in her big eyes. She thought to herself: This is indeed my master. He is indeed a good robber. Mom is right,
There is absolutely nothing wrong with following him. In comparison, those guys called Beast Dragons who write robbery guides are all damn liars who want to cheat their royalties.
She quietly threw all the robbers she had collected, including a fool's manual on how to become an excellent robber, on the ground. Then she stepped heavily on them. After thinking about it, she felt a little dissatisfied.
Willingly. Immediately afterwards, he made a face and spat hard.
When Lorraine said this, he glanced behind the little boy and found that the soldiers standing behind him also had a look of dementia. He waved his hand and said, "Of course. Because not all the things robbed are necessarily the same."
It is hard currency, and you need to have a safe transaction channel to exchange for the supplies you need. However, these are all issues of selling stolen goods. They are not within the scope of this free vocational skills training. So I won’t tell you.
Already."
The little boy tilted his head and looked at Lorraine blankly for a long time. He gritted his teeth for a while, and smiled happily for a while. I don't know what he was thinking in his mind.
Lorraine waited for a moment and found that he still hadn't come back to his senses. He said politely: "Hey, hey, that little thief, can we go now?"
Only then did the little boy come back to his senses. He seemed to have made some determination in his heart. He pursed his mouth heavily, then knelt down on one knee, put his hand on his chest, made a solemn Ruman salute, and then raised his head
He started and said solemnly: "This eldest brother, I, Leo, Caius, Julius, solemnly request you to be my teacher and teach me how to rob, is that okay?"
When the soldiers nearby saw this, they immediately panicked.
"Young Master, you can't do this~!" They all yelled and jumped down from the hill, as if they had encountered something terrible.
They came to the little boy, surrounded him, and kept begging.
"Young Master, please get up quickly."
"If the father-in-law finds out, he will skin us."
"Please, please don't learn. Otherwise, why don't we sneak out one day and watch the monkey show?"
"Candy Man, young master, don't you like Candy Man the most? I will buy you a box later."
"We can't learn from a robber and become bad, right?"
"..."
They tried their best, trying to get rid of the little boy's whimsical idea by tempting, begging, and persuading.
Some people even pressed their swords with their hands, glared angrily at the people in Lorraine, and made false threats. It was as if the little boy would become like this because they were the fault.
But the little boy was extremely stubborn and persistent.
He shouted: "Shut up, all of you~!"
Although the voice was childish and clear, the dignity of the superiors that he had cultivated since he was a child made everyone suddenly stop talking. They looked at each other in silence and moved out of the way.
The little boy knelt on the ground with one knee, his big black eyes unblinking, looking straight at Lorraine opposite, and said: "Are you going to agree or not?"
"Caius?" When Lorraine heard the name, he felt vaguely familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. But he couldn't remember it for a while. He finally shook his head and thought: "Since I can't remember, obviously I can't.
It’s just something that’s not serious.”
He looked at the little boy's luxurious clothes, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm going to be your teacher, right?"
"Yeah~!" The little boy nodded heavily.
Lorraine thought for a while and said: "It's not impossible, but how much salary do you give? And how about the benefits?"
When Baldo saw this, he was immediately frightened out of his wits. He hurriedly said: "Sir, Sir, don't forget, we have to go to Maple Leaf Danlin to go to school."
Lorraine was stunned.
At this time, the little boy heard it, his eyes lit up, and he rushed to say: "You are going to Maple Leaf Danlin College, right?"
"Of course." Baldo pointed at Lorraine with his thumb and said proudly: "Our Count Lorraine is a student specially recruited by Archmage Lester."
The little boy was stunned for a moment. He raised his head and murmured: "Earl of Lorraine? Count Lorraine of the Longyacao family?"
Baldo laughed proudly and said: "Of course. I didn't expect that a little thief like you would actually know the reputation of our family. If you are afraid, please get out of the way and let us pass. Otherwise... hum hum hum…
"
Leo ignored him, but looked at Lorraine carefully from one glance to the next, and said: "Are you the Count Lorraine who wrote "Supper" and made a sensation?"
Lorraine was stunned. She didn't expect Lorena's hands to be so fast, and she had already done it.
Seeing that he had acquiesced, Leo suddenly let go of his throat and shouted loudly: "Nicole, Nicole~! I found the guy you want most, do you think he is suitable?
"
The crisp sound echoed in the forest, startling flocks of birds.
