The Black Scepter
Vol 4 Chapter 22: Purpose and conditions
>Two days later, a convoy appeared outside the military headquarters on the Byzantine border.
The Duke of Windsor appeared and greeted the team in person-no one would have thought why this caravan would appear as a caravan of caravans, but when a Byzantine aristocrat walked down the carriage, all Talent suddenly realized-these guys who were judged to have died were not dead.
Lilith, Morpheus and others walked off the convoy together, and when she faced the Duke of Windsor, she did not dare to raise her head, while Minos next to her was a relaxed and natural face: "I believe something else Not to mention, it's still possible to get a team to send you back."
Murphy had a deeper understanding of this guy during the journey-jealous but hateful and weird, with a rare talent and strong comprehension ability, he had been "learning" with Murphy several times along the way. He has made significant and significant progress compared to the last contest in West Sellin-and for the Consanas, Murphy decided to seize this opportunity to develop relationships and who can imagine this huge family What more terrifying energy is behind it?
"father."
At this moment, he stepped forward to his father. Duke Akar, who was a heavy minister of the military, had a complex look at this moment. After all, Murphy made a big contribution in this action, but even with Lilith’s “dereliction of duty” and even the “treason” felony Once again he was resisted by him alone—because now Murphy is an existence outside of Byzantium, his guilt is basically not, and no one will pursue it.
"I didn't expect you to do this." Duke Akar nodded, and there was a trace of sound in the voice, but in the end he didn't lose his gaze in front of everyone. "But that's enough. I'm very proud of what you did."
Lilith behind Murphy lowered her head and was a little embarrassed. She didn't know why, after experiencing this series of events, she suddenly had an impulse, a little impulse that originated from the heart of the sensual woman-the finger lifted up She seemed to want to hold Murphy's hand, but she took the courage to stretch out her palm and grabbed an empty space, because Murphy happened to turn around to express her gratitude to Minos, not paying attention to this tiny detail.
But this doesn't mean that Duke Windsor didn't see it. He raised his eyebrows and didn't speak. He just looked at Lilith and smiled. Lilith, who was aware of this, blushed transparently, but this episode Immediately concealed by the honours of the seventeen knights who survived.
In Byzantine history, there has never been a precedent of soldiers accepting medals just after returning from the battlefield, but the Duke of Windsor broke it with one hand. After the seventeen knights got off the carriage, he stood in front of them. A medal of honor was awarded to this squadron whose organization had completely disappeared.
The long line not only consisted of 17 knights, but there were more than one hundred coffins converging fallen knights in the back. Lord Duke did not drop one. He placed the medals on the coffins of the warriors sleeping on the battlefield. .
Murphy looked at his father's slightly aged back in silence, listening to the names of the fallen knights and their merits that the duke of the Empire sternly read out, but he remembered the similar situation he faced in Barrich. Chen Za.
And Lilith was standing a few meters away from Murphy. After several escapes, she looked at the silent guy with surprise. The previous impulse in her heart faded a little-she understood that she and Murphy Just like that, I have never returned to the time when I had never experienced war and was full of illusions about the world.
Just now, she rejected the Duke’s award, and personally pinned the Medal of Honor to Murphy’s chest, which was no longer possible to carry the Byzantine Medal in this life. Murphy did not reject it, just low. He accepted everything silently, including the hug where Lilith finally opened her arms suddenly.
The ceremony was short, but Murphy knew that he would not stay here for too long. After visiting the injuries of Hiddink, Corvin, and Boozer, although some of his friends smiled, they could not conceal the sadness caused by the heavy losses of the Knights. After Hiddink explained the specific reasons why the Cavalry Regiment suffered, Murphy did not say anything directly to find Deco, who had not admitted his mistake until now, and Sarah who had fought with himself. .
The heads of the two aristocratic knights did not think that it would be Murphys who went deep into the enemy positions and rescued these knights. Their meeting with Murphys was extremely simple-so simple that they didn't even arrive in five minutes.
In short, no one knows what happened in those five minutes. It was just that when the medical team in the military camp arrived at the scene, the two geniuses of the self-reliant and powerful family genius could not even speak, but the reply obtained when asked about the reason was completely Is shaking his head.
Sarah and Deco, who could not have swallowed this breath, got a very simple message from Murphy's mouth-the walls of the four military fortresses on the border of Nale were completely demolished overnight, and the one who planned to attack the Byzantine cavalry The regiment's lord was thrown into the death cell he made, and was torn to pieces by the prisoners he had tortured.
Although there is no Byzantine rank, even the title is no longer valued, but this sudden appearance of Murphys has invisibly made him occupy a terrible position in the eyes of this group of Byzantine newcomers.
Since then, no one dared to vilify the heir of the Purple Iris family.
After all this, Murphy realized that he would not stay too long, because Minos, who had helped a lot, didn’t leave in a hurry, but received a new order from Varian-with Murphys about the city of Sisrin Investigate the situation and reach some possible "cooperation". So on the morning of the next day, Murphy packed his clothes and prepared to embark on his return journey.
But obviously, his hurriedness was not understood by some people.
"Are you leaving?"
I don’t know what the reason is that Lilith, who was always wearing military uniforms in the army, put on a long dress when he came to Murphy the next day-it really made Murphy shine, but he didn’t change it. To understand deeply why Lilith did this, she simply answered her question: "Barrich will have war, and the'night watchman' needs to stand firm."
"When are you coming back?"
Lilith's long hair fluttered gently with the warming spring breeze, and her eyes were deflected-she didn't want Murphy to see the loss in her eyes.
"I want to say that" Murphy seemed to think for a long time, and finally gave Li Lisi an unexpected answer: "If there is time, I will welcome you to be a guest."
He smiled, but he continued with some helplessness: "The Inquisition is still somewhat sensitive to me. It is not appropriate to go back now."
"Are you going to be a lord of other empire?"
Lilith stepped forward and stood in front of him, "Forever fighting in that strange land?"
"No, I won't be the lord." Murphy lowered his head, sighed, and looked at Lilith's clear eyes, suddenly he was a little fascinated-a few seconds later, he looked away and said, "I just Heir who is looking for a way to return home safely."
Lilith was silent and did not answer.
"If possible, stay away from these wars."
Murphy did not speak other words in the end, and turned to Hydera in the distance, whispering: "I really don't want you to be rescued next time, and I'm more afraid that I will take a step late."
"Ok."
Lilith ended the conversation with this short word, waved goodbye, and nodded to the guy who jumped on the tap a few steps, then watched him completely disappear in the smoke of the dragon.
"If I did it, would you come back?"
The young Knight Major looked at the sky and murmured softly.
Murphy, who was returning to the city of West Sellin, had mixed feelings. He sitting on Hydera’s head looked at the sea of clouds from time to time, while Minos, who was invited together, looked up at the sky and suddenly asked: “Your The martial arts are different from what they used to be-I mean, it has the shadow of a barbarian, right?"
It was only after Murphy realized that when he was fighting Minos, the genius of the Consanas was the first round of pure physical attack-now I want to come, he used to use it now. The barbarians learn the same tricks.
"Yes, I learned from a northern nobleman."
"Northern nobility? Not a barbarian?"
Suddenly, Minos's expression turned into a smile. He reached out and stroked the tangled hair and said, "Let me guess. Is it a guy with a beard, a figure three times bigger than me, and every day silly?" "
Murphy turned around and didn't accidentally answer: "Do you know Hessel?"
"The Quin family is very strong recently. After the Grass family withdrew from the front line, they reunified the north with the barbarians. At the same time, they had a posture of expanding to the south." Minos pointed to the north in the sea of clouds, " But this is not important. What is important is that although the barbaric martial arts have been rumored a lot, but the real essence, only two people of the large northern nobles have learned."
"You and Heysel?" Murphy was not difficult to guess what he meant.
Minos made a grimace and really complained: "I am a little embarrassed to say so straightforwardly, but obviously, this is indeed the case, but the barbarian combat skills are not the fur you learned. , Something with real content, you can’t touch it yet."
"What?" Murphy remembered the terrifying explosiveness of Heisel's body. "The right way to use it?"
"That's too obvious. If the barbarians are really just a group of warriors sent with simple limbs, how can the northern nobles find a way to invade south in the harsh environment that they can't make ends meet?"
Minos shook his finger, "What does that say-'All roads lead to ancient Siga', those strong men may have different occupations, but they will be different when they reach the final path. Very few, your a level is indeed very high, but you may not know that in the past barbarian clan, the characters above the a level may account for half of the entire continent."
"Of course, that was hundreds of years ago, and now only the old guy has such a powerful strength."
Minos sighed and murmured, Murphy was frowning and thinking about his words-Andalier can still play far beyond his level of strength even without the scary level, which is enough to confirm Minos's There is nothing wrong with the words, but what is the purpose of his saying so?
"What do you want to talk about the cooperation between the "creed" and the city of West Sellin?" He asked suddenly: "Economy? Manpower? Intelligence? Or something else?"
"The creed does not fully represent the strength of the Consanas family, so the first thing to understand is that the cooperation is not the'Consanas family'-this is an external rhetoric, understand?" Minos changed from lying down to sitting, Holding on to Longjiao, he continued: "My grandfather seems to value you very much. The "creed" does not need to gain anything in your power. The so-called cooperation is in my opinion only my grandfather's unilateral show. I can't figure out why. ."
He made a grimace, "but following the topic just now-if you want to continue to learn the barbarian martial arts, then I can introduce you to the powerful guy I said."
"That barbarian?"
"But I need you to get my approval first-I know I can't beat you, but for the use of power, you are far from the level that the old guy can see."
The condition suddenly thrown by Minos made Murphy feel a little emotional. This is an opportunity for his strength to become stronger. He is very clear that if he always relies on training or self-enlightenment, his advancement speed is far inferior to that of one. The guidance of the powerful mentor comes quickly, which is enough from the guidance process of Della and Don Quixote~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I will consider it. "
But in the face of these potentially unique opportunities, Murphy still chose to give up temporarily. His answer made Minos stunned. This guy reached out and shook in front of Murphy's eyes, asking: "It won't be because of high altitude. Confused? Did you hear what I was talking about?"
"I heard it clearly and gave the answer."
Murphy sighed and turned to the city that was faintly visible in the sea of clouds under Hydera. "I'm not arrogant or stupid, but I understand what I need most now."
With regard to the portal, Morpheus must follow suit to find out whether there is another portal in Arantis, and can he find clues about Ashkandi? All of this surpassed the expectation of "becoming stronger" as soon as possible in Murphys. For him now, strength is not the goal, but the condition of achieving the goal. Blindly pursuing a powerful result is not worth it. This is the strength that Murphys experienced. Real feelings after "big ups and downs".
Minos was caught in thought, and after seriously recalling the difference between him and Murphy, he was a little shocked.
