He is afraid of fighting and likes fighting. He is afraid of the authority of noble lords, but when facing a strong enemy, all the muscles in his body will tell him that the moment when a big fist hits someone's face is the only truth in the universe.
There are usually three types of people in the world: nobles, commoners and slaves; but there are only two types on the battlefield, the strong and the weak. This simple dichotomy allows Bazelar peasants to not worry about complex wordings such as attitude towards others and honorifics and humility.
Making combat as simple and manual labor as growing mushrooms in a greenhouse made Toba feel extremely comfortable.
Obviously Yona had different opinions. The battle was too terrifying, Yona thought as he huddled behind Long Ji.
The fight between the dragon knight and the skeleton has lasted for eight minutes. Although Qiaopu was slightly injured, his exquisite swordsmanship and advanced enchanted weapons gave him the upper hand. Long Ji's operation could not keep up with his attack rhythm, and several purple sticks
The threads were cut off one after another; the Oriental woman suddenly bit the tip of her tongue, sprayed blood on the purple gemstone, and launched the "Skeleton Dance".
The skeleton straightened its neck, and the purple fire in the dark eye sockets suddenly became strong. It twitched all over, and its joints made a clicking sound. It suddenly swung the bone sword and cut off all the purple threads hanging above its head.
With a "ding" sound, the dagger embedded with gems fell to the ground. Long Ji sighed with a pale face, lowered her hands, and blood flowed from the wounds on her palms.
The skeleton broke away from the control of the summoner, landed on the ground, and danced a strange, inexplicable and extremely gorgeous dance. In the tavern with flickering fireworks, the shiny skeleton rotated gracefully, holding its invisible dance partner with its arms,
The heels click on the ground to make a beat.
"What are you doing again?" Qiao Pu looked a little troubled and held his sword on guard.
"you……"
He swallowed back the second half of the sentence, and the shadow of the skeleton filled the entire tavern. It rotated, jumped, spread its arms, staggered, slowly advanced, and retreated at high speed, changing thousands of dance steps, from dancing alone to forming countless shadows.
During the group dance, Jonah heard the sound of wind blowing through the gaps between the bones of the skeleton, and the shrill scream sounded like an accompaniment to the dance. The purple fire in the eye sockets of the skeleton transformed into flowing fireflies flying in the sky.
"It's so beautiful," said Sibi.
Is there something wrong with your eyes? That's a white skeleton, a dancing skeleton! Doesn't anyone find it scary? Jonah said loudly in his heart.
Qiao Pu protected his eyes as the skeleton's bone blades struck from all angles, from the front, back, up and down, and struck the enchanted scales, making a sharp and scratching sound.
The dragon knight shouted loudly, stepped forward and drew his sword with both hands, slashing a scorching rainbow in the air. The skeleton spun around and appeared behind him, gently hugging the dragon knight's neck like a dance partner, and the bone sword lightly slashed across Qiao's neck.
Pu's throat. Qiaopu lowered his head and used the jaw of his helmet to block the attack. The bone blade crackled through the protective layer of "tough" magic, cutting long and deep scars on the dark gold helmet.
"Enough!" Qiaopp roared angrily, quickly retreated out of the attack range of the skeleton and leaned against the wall. He took off his helmet and blew a loud whistle. Almost at the same time, a low-pitched whistle sounded from an unknown distance outside the tavern.
The head-scratching ferocious roar and the threatening roar of the beast made Jonah and Sibi feel their palms were cold at the same time. The two looked at each other: "It's the Golden Earth Dragon.!"
"...I think my spine is shaking. Including my tailbone."
How ferocious is a living golden earth-walking dragon? No one has ever seen it. Compared with the earth-walking dragon cavalry that can be seen everywhere in the Western Continent, the elite golden earth-walking dragon knights among the elite only exist in terrifying legends. Dad downplayed it
After taking care of two golden dragon knights, Jonah truly underestimated their strength. Now, the dragon shook the astrologer apprentice's entire spirit with just his roar.
As if sensing the sound, the skeleton stopped dancing and turned its head slightly, opened its mandibles, and let out a silent roar from its hollow mouth. Qiao Pu grinned at the pale skeleton and made a gesture that predicted victory.
"Please stop for a moment," a woman's voice said.
No one noticed when she appeared between the dragon knight and the summoned creature. This woman had entered her twilight years, with silver hair, but a wrinkled face, with two bright eyes full of youthful vitality. She
Wearing an apron, hair pulled up, and sleeves, she looked like an ordinary neighbor’s grandmother who had just finished her housework and walked from the kitchen to the living room to drink a cup of tea. But from the moment she appeared, everyone’s eyes were fixed on her.
Pulled, like an iron block attracted by a magnet.
"Stop for a moment, I said. I'm very tired of this. It always happens like this. Time and time again." The old woman shook her head, with no sign of joy or sadness on her face. "Who are you?" she asked Qiao Pu.
The dragon knight was a little wary, but he still put down his sword and replied politely: "I am Mrs. Jopp Nordan, Knight of the Guards of the Golden Hammer Cavalry Regiment."
"Where are they?" The old woman pointed to the black-clad soldier next to her.
"Carter and Bichir, the apprentice knights of the Golden Hammer Knights, madam. Also, the cavalrymen named Dana and Edgar who died at the door just now." Qiao Pu looked at the dragon that was destroyed by Toba and Jekong.
Cavalry corpse.
"Where are you?" The old woman pointed at Jonah and the other three.
"The astrologer apprentice D? Jonah II, and my companions, the telepathic sorcerer Long Ji from the East, and the archer Sibi of Bazeral, Madam." Jonah answered honestly.
"Left-wing Liberation Army," Joop added.
"No, we are tenants of Cherry Crossing." Jonah corrected him immediately.
"What?" The dragon knight stared with wide gray eyes.
"I know." The young grandmother rubbed her hands together, and some dried flour fell off.
"I didn't hear it in the kitchen just now, otherwise you bad boys wouldn't have the chance to mess everything up. You always do this and cause trouble for me."
"Excuse me..." Qiao Pu asked, but his words were immediately interrupted.
"Bad boys, I will ask each of you a question now. You must answer it carefully. If you answer it correctly, I can forgive you for your naughtiness." The old lady glanced around and said, "Let's start with the young officers."
"Qiaopu, have you tasted my apple pie seriously?" the old lady asked.
"The boss lady's apple pie? Oh of course...it's very delicious. I am religious about food, I can swear by bread and butter." Qiaopp raised his right hand.
"Jona, have you tasted my apple pie seriously?" the old lady asked.
Jonah quickly recalled the apple pie he had just eaten, vaguely remembering the sweetness of the filling and the crispness of the crust on the tip of his tongue, "Yes, madam. I ate it all." Jonah answered calmly.
"Little grasshopper, have you tasted my apple pie seriously?" the old lady asked.
"Yes, grandma! I also tasted the steak and sparkling ale carefully. I have to say, the wine is not bad, the steak is too old, and the amount of pepper in the sauce is too little." Sibi replied, "-and it's a little cold.
." She added. After a while, she opened her eyes wide and said in fear: "How do you know this nickname?"
"Long Ji, have you tasted my apple pie seriously?" the old lady asked.
"...I'm sorry, I don't care about the taste of food." The oriental woman slowly stood up and inserted the dagger back into her waist.
"You idiots." The old lady beat her waist in distress, "I am the only cook here. In addition to the boss lady's apple pie, of course there are also boss lady's steaks, boss lady's mashed potatoes, boss lady's home-brewed ale, and boss lady's bean soup.
, the boss lady’s white bread, I don’t care whether you eat my apple pie seriously or not. When you get to my age, you will know how difficult it is to satisfy the demands of naughty children. I asked the waitress to push it out.
This is a sign to make you stop complaining about other foods. Now, get out of here and stop fighting."
Several people looked at the proprietress who was standing in the middle of the tavern in bewilderment. The proprietress seemed to be unable to see the bleeding corpses, the injured, the burning tables and chairs, and the broken floor, and she wanted to push them out of the door.
"Where did this thing come from?" She looked up at the tall skeleton and frowned.
"I..." Before Long Ji could explain, the landlady stretched out her arms and snapped her fingers in front of the skull's nostrils: "Go home, you ugly big man."
Long Ji exclaimed, and the upright skeleton suddenly collapsed. Long Ji stretched out her hand to help the falling skeleton, as if she wanted to hug it, and then fell to the ground with a bang, turning into a piece of purple powder, which was immediately blown by the wind.
scattered.
"Let your little pet go away as well." The landlady said to the dragon knight, Qiao Pu was stunned.
"By the way, we need to clean it up. Are you two going to stay lazy until dark?" she shouted into the depths of the tavern.
"I know, boss lady..." The bartender, Bill, had a distressed look on his face. He climbed up from the ruins of the burning bar and dusted off his chest. Next to his second button, there was even a Qiaopu thorn.
Pierced sword hole.
"Jofannie, get up, you've been discovered too." He frowned and said. Under the corpses next to him, the head of a red-haired waitress emerged, "Is this the end? How boring."
Qiaopu, Jonah, and Sibi's jaws simultaneously made clicking sounds due to the excessive opening of their mouths.
"You, you, you are not dead? Then these people..." Sibi stammered, pointing at them, then at the corpse, then at the corpse, then at them.
"These people are really dead and tough." Iovanni answered with a smile as she put an unknown person's ear on her head.
"You idiots, I say." The landlady complained, "The world is a big place, and there are many things you don't understand. Don't make a fuss. Get out of here. I still have to clean the room. Alas, I hope the landlord will do it when I check out.
Don't pick at the holes in the floor."
"Um, boss lady... the landlord seems to be here." Yophani timidly pointed to the pile of corpses where she was hiding.
"Perfect! Then let's clean up and run around all night." The landlady rubbed her hands and picked up a broom from nowhere.
"Why don't you leave yet?" She glared at the four people who were an eyesore, "Take those who can still walk with you." Pointing to the wounded and the cowards who did not participate in the battle, everyone completed their work obediently.
When Jonah and Joop walked out of the tavern side by side, both of them felt dizzy and there was always a feeling that something was wrong.
"Hello, Qiao Pu." The dragon knight stretched out his hand.
"Hello, Jonah." The astrologer's apprentice shook hands with him blankly.
"The two outrageous attacks just now impressed me deeply." Qiao Pu said with a smile.
"No, I'm still an apprentice. I can't do anything well." Jonah said discouraged.
"Everyone comes from the days of the 'bastard without a seed'." Qiao Pu sighed.
