"You are now the public enemy of the whole continent." The black cat lay on the counter, wagging its tail, gloating at Le Jing, "The killers from all over the continent will come to assassinate you one after another for the sake of generous rewards. You die deal."

Le Jing was not too surprised to be wanted by the church and the whole continent.

Napoleon once said: "There are only two forces in the world: the sword and thought. In the long run, the sword is always defeated by thought."

Le Jing never underestimated the terrifying power of thought.Thought is the most terrible weapon that human beings have. It is sharper than the sharpest weapon and stronger than the strongest shield. It can easily arm a weak person into a strong warrior, and it can also make an old man heavy. Rejuvenate vitality.People are powerful because of their thoughts, and they are also immortal because of their thoughts.

Therefore, rulers throughout the ages have more or less "educated the people" to the people. Having too many thoughtful people is not a good thing for the stability of the country.

Moreover, Le Jing wasn't worried about his safety. Le Ling, who already had enough energy, could help him defend against any malicious attacks.

Next time...

He propped his head up and looked at Victor with a half-smile: "Are you willing?"

The black cat raised its head, and reluctantly admitted: "I'm really reluctant. After all, you look so delicious." He looked at Le Jing intently, swallowed, "Anyway, you are going to die, instead of taking advantage of others, Better let me eat you."

"I haven't lived enough yet, and I don't want to die yet." Le Jing smiled and scratched his chin, the black cat couldn't help squinting its eyes, and made a comfortable purr from its throat, the voice was as soft as cotton candy, "Then you Sign a contract with me, I will protect you, as long as you give me your soul and body after death."

Le Jing made a movement of his hands, which drew the dissatisfied protest from the black cat's throat. He hurriedly continued to smooth the cat's hair: "I thought it was my soul that you always wanted to eat?"

Even though the black cat's eyes were narrowed into a slit, its eyes were still salivating at Le Jing, and its nose was even more intoxicated sniffing at his hand: "The soul is the main meal, the body is the dessert, each has its own taste. tasty."

Le Jing looked at the black cat who couldn't help but put his fingers into its mouth and chew hard, and pulled his fingers out of its mouth helplessly.

The cat's saliva was all over the fingers, and there was not even a tooth mark other than that.He rubbed against the black cat's glossy fur in disgust: "Didn't you already know that you couldn't eat me?"

Victor knew this too.This human has no magic power fluctuations all over his body, but he can use a weird defensive magic. No matter how Victor tries, he can't leave any wounds on his body, which makes Victor very aggrieved.

Therefore, the black cat has plausible words for the young people's questioning: "It's okay to taste it if you can't eat it!"

Lejing: ...

Suddenly there was a light knock on the door, "Please come in." Le Jing said, "The door is not locked."

The door was pushed open, and a strange man wrapped in a black cloak walked in from the outside.The cloak was dirty, and he looked like a traveler.

"Welcome." Le Jing stood up with a friendly smile, "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

The traveler pulled down the hood of his cloak, revealing a pale, youthful face.Blonde hair and blue eyes, high nose and deep eyes, typical Aryan features, the only thing that reveals his alien identity is a pair of pointed ears that do not belong to humans.Victor recognized him immediately—a half-elf.

The half-elf looked down at the ground expressionlessly, and he had to say that he had a pair of beautiful eyes, like a forest after a storm, with a thrilling greenness.However, such a beautiful, vibrant green couldn't cover up the lifelessness in his eyes, which made him look strangely out of place.

"Oriental?" He asked gently, his voice low as if talking to himself.

"Yes, I am." Le Jing's voice seemed to frighten him, he quickly glanced at him in horror, then at Victor, and whispered, "Black cat."

In the eyes of many Westerners, black cats are a symbol of bad luck. There is even a saying that if you see a black cat in the morning, you will be unlucky for the whole day.

Victor squinted his eyes, stood up, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

Le Jing almost thought that the traveler thought the same, until the traveler raised his head again and asked softly, "Are you a black dragon?"

Le Jing was stunned for a moment, but was keenly caught by the traveler. He moved the corner of his mouth and showed a strange and stiff smile: "My name is Cairns." He said lightly: "I came here to kill you."

His brows and eyes were peaceful and quiet, even if he said he was going to kill Le Jing, his eyes were still as dark as ever, without any hostility or killing intent, as if he just made a joke.

Le Jing looked at him curiously: "Are you a killer?"

Keynes thought for a while, shook his head, and explained seriously: "They call me a ghoul and a murderer, so I should not be a killer."

Hearing such an answer, the young man was not only not afraid, but asked with great interest: "Why do you call you that? Is it because you killed a lot of people?"

Keynes lowered his eyes habitually, and replied obediently: "I didn't count them, probably killed a lot of people."

In Victor's view, this is undoubtedly an extremely absurd scene.The killer who came to hunt the prey communicated peacefully with the prey. There was no tense and sinister atmosphere between the two. Cairns always answered Le Jing's questions, as well-behaved as a primary school student answering the teacher's questions.For Le Jing, a strange human being, Victor would not be surprised by what he did.But Keynes, who claimed to be coming to kill Lejing, made Victor feel a subtle sense of incongruity.

If Victor hadn't smelled the thick and indelible smell of blood from this young man named Cairns, maybe he could really be deceived by his harmless appearance.

This harmless half-elf was filled with a bloody smell that was stronger than that of a demon from the abyss!His titles of ghoul and murderer are not for nothing.He bet he killed at least tens of thousands of people.

however……

Victor lay down again and yawned disinterestedly.

He finally understood what this subtle incongruity was.

This person has a soul that does not match his strength.The light of his soul is weak and cloudy, floating in ignorance, and it is simply two extremes with Lejing, which is Victor's least favorite taste.

He shook his tail boredly, stood up, and wanted to jump off the counter to leave here, but his actions attracted Cairns' attention. The half-elf glanced at him, and instantly felt like a huge boulder crushed him. On Victor, his body was caught off guard and fell straight off the counter, clinging to the ground in a five-body throwing posture.

He struggled desperately, but felt that his body was getting heavier and heavier, his internal organs seemed to be squeezed out of his body, and a bloody smell faintly appeared in his throat.Since he became an adult, he has not been suppressed by such a powerful force for hundreds of years.

"You are not the target of the mission." Keynes said blankly: "If you behave well and don't move, then I won't kill you."

Victor slowly stretched his body obediently, and stopped struggling. Sure enough, the pressure on his body was relieved, and he finally got a chance to breathe.

hell!He got up in a panic, and looked at this half-elf in surprise. With such a powerful force, is he the king of elves?A half-elf, maybe?But whatever he was, Victor would not underestimate him.Although his soul is weak, he is undoubtedly a strong man.

And here, Keynes politely asked Le Jing, "Excuse me, what kind of death do you want?"

Le Jing's expression was calm, as if he didn't see Victor's embarrassment, and he said in an easy-going tone as if he was chatting with a friend: "If possible, I prefer sea burial. Burn my body to ashes, and then in a very sunset A good evening spilling into the ocean is the most romantic thing I can think of."

Keynes thought for a while: "After I kill you, I can write your request on paper, and hope that your friends can meet your request."

Le Jing smiled and rejected his kindness: "Sorry, I don't have any plans to die yet."

"People are always going to die." Keynes pulled out a sharp dagger from his sleeve unmoved, "I like you very much, so I will kill you myself."

Le Jing blinked his eyes, and the next second the dagger in Keynes' hand was on his neck, and the cold touch pressed against his skin, which made him a little uncomfortable.

He raised his head, only to realize that Keynes was half a head taller than him, probably because he was too thin, so he didn't look tall.

Keynes lowered his head, his eyes were lifeless, the corners of his mouth curved straight, and he asked in a calm voice, "Do you have any last words?"

Although the knife was already on the neck of the oriental man, his eyes did not have the fear and resentment that Keynes used to see in the eyes of the dead, but were full of pity and sarcasm.

"Why not afraid?" he asked.

"It's so pitiful," said the young man.

Suddenly, an unknown fire appeared in Keynes' heart.

He lowered the dagger on the young man's neck threateningly, and asked coldly, "What did you say?"

"I said, how pitiful." The young man's penetrating and sharp eyes seemed to touch his soul through the body, "You don't even have a self, you are just alive."

"This world does not belong to you."

"You're an outlier."

"You are a monster." The young man showed a nice smile, "You are a different monster from me."

Keynes opened his eyes wide, and the hand holding the dagger trembled for the first time.

Every saint has a dark past, and every sinner has a clean future.

The young man stared at the shocked half-elf, smiled and asked softly, "Do you want to stay and work here? I still need a clerk."

I am looking forward to your future.
