Soul of Burning Steel

Chapter 16: Tit for tat

   After solving the patrolling mercenaries at San Tiao Street and the gate of the Lord's Mansion, Joshua punched open the closed gate without any scruples, and walked in the front garden of the Lord's Mansion with Hotaru.

   "That person is not dead."

   followed his master, Ying Kan asked with some doubts: "Don't you kill it?"

   "I don't kill people who don't have the ability to resist... I feel hypocritical about this."

  While observing the surrounding environment, Joshua replied. He didn't seem to care about such trivial matters: "It's just a mercenary. If you don't die, you don't die. You don't need to make a knife."

   "What does it mean to make up a knife?"

   "It means giving the one who hasn't died one last cut to make him die."

   "Then a mercenary..."

   "A soldier with money."

This kind of simple question and answer has continued until now when he walked out of the crypt of the church. Although Hotaru has some basic knowledge of common sense, he has no knowledge of certain situations and vocabulary, especially new vocabulary. Joshua believes that her information package needs to be updated urgently, at least hundreds of years behind the times.

   Fortunately, although his miraculous lady looks colder, she is a very curious guy. She is very interested in everything around her, and it won’t take long before she can fully adapt to this world.

   After a turn, they came to the main road leading to the mansion.

  Lord’s Mansion is equivalent to a city within a city. The outermost layer is a walled gate, followed by a large garden and woodland. The center is the building used for people.

   Because Joshua’s steps are relatively large, Hotaru can only trot to avoid being pulled away. She looked at the surrounding scenery and said to herself: "Uncle Van lives in this place?"

   "Do you know Fan?" After hearing the interesting words, Qiao Xiu turned his head to look at Firefly, a little surprised.

   "Yes, he often goes to take care of us." Speaking of what she knew, the corner of her mouth curled up, and she recalled: "About once every two weeks, master, you know, the divine machine is very troublesome..."

   "No, I don't know, I didn't even know about the magic machine until recently."

"Is it..." After a moment of stunned, Hotaru didn't expect that his contractor had only recently learned of his existence, and seemed to be shocked: "Well, after all, there are so many old days in the Sealed Blade Room. There is always someone to maintain the divine machine that remains. The previous lord always seems to be very busy, and the maintenance is the job of Uncle Fan."

   "So that's it." Joshua nodded and asked again: "But listening to you, is it possible that the rooms under the church cemetery are all sacred machines?"

   He originally thought that there were only two, the others were ordinary swords, you know, there are hundreds of weapons there.

   "Yes, it's all."

Firefly nodded and said: "In order to ensure the best resonance, each contractor will have two or three divine machines to choose from. Since most contractors in the past cannot carry the load caused by many divine machines, they can only Choose the one with the highest synchronization rate, and the others can only be sealed."

As she said, her brows moved slightly, seeming to be a little puzzled: "For optimization, the core of each divine machine is made of a part of the contractor's body. My core is made of a part of your right wrist bone, and my brother is a left hand. , It’s strange to say that the synchronization rate between him and you was higher than mine. Why did you choose me this time..."

   (That giant axe? It is indeed a very familiar feeling... It seems that it should be a slight change caused by the soul fusion, which caused the synchronization rate to change. Oh, I am really sorry.)

Guessed the reason, but Joshua would not be so stupid to say it. Listening to what Yingying said, he couldn't help but have a new question: "In this way, the divine machine left in the sealed blade room is also conscious. Don’t you and them feel painful for long-term storage?"

"can you?"

Firefly didn't care. Although she looked like a fifteen-year-old girl, she was very indifferent when she spoke. Her green pupils were extremely cold: "Pain and loneliness are the feelings that humans can only have. A weapon has its meaning only when it is held by someone. If it is not used, then wait and seal it in the sheath until the day it is unsheathed."

   "It's so cold."

   "Because the heart is made of iron."

Unknowingly, the two of them told a silly joke. Joshua and Hotaru came to the main entrance of the Lord’s Mansion. The soldier looked up at the small castle and the huge wooden gate like a city gate. After watching carefully for a while, he Nodded and said: "It seems that I changed the magic door after I left. The energy fluctuation is very complicated. It is a bit difficult to open it, but it is not troublesome."

   "Do you know how to magic, master?" Firefly asked curiously when he heard these words.

   "No, I'm just used to it."

After the words, Joshua stretched out his fist, his eyes reflected that this fan was strengthened by magic over and over again, comparable to the 37 energy nodes in the gate made of pure steel, and the circulation rules and effects of magic energy were all Easily see through.

   Just as he said—Might and Magic, he used to unload a thousand and eight hundred, so he got used to it early.

   In that case, it was a punch!

"boom!!"

The air was twisted into a strange shape, and then there was a loud bang, but just before the sound reached his ears, Joshua’s right fist had literally hit the door, and the air wave set off a gust of wind. , Sweep away the gravel dust on the ground.

At the same time, along with the breathing method that has been used countless times, the power contained in the depths of the body rises again, the red shining light surges into the entrance, under the control of the legendary warrior, these fighting qi are scattered into countless parts, they Turn into a knife to tear the magic route in the door, and completely destroy the magic circle supporting the door.

   Everything happened in one second.

   Qiao Xiuya slowly retracted his fist, and a gust of wind blew by, and the door in front of him turned into decay, slowly floating in the air, only a little residue fell to the ground.

  【Extremely Intent·Breakdown】

   The fighting skills that could only be used by the gold-level powerhouse were used so casually by a silver warrior. This is the greatest benefit brought by the legendary warrior [Jiyi].

   "It's better to come to a real steel door, it's more difficult for me."

   Stepping into the lord’s mansion, Joshua tilted her head and gestured, letting Ying follow up: "Waiting for the meeting is a tough fight. It's time for you to show your talents, come on."

"Yes Master."

  ==================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

   "Boom!"

   A loud bang rang throughout the city center.

   This is a low and violent roar like a siege hammer hitting a city gate.

   This voice can be heard even in the lobby of the Moldavian Lord’s Mansion.

   Danlia was thinking but was interrupted by the loud noise. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, frowning and asked: "What's the matter? Is there any accident outside?"

   The place where the sound appeared was too close, which made him feel a little bit wrong.

"I went to see."

   A shield-bearing mercenary standing behind him was about to leave to see the situation, but was stopped by Danlia: "No, you stay, let Gnar go first."

The middle-aged man naturally has his own thinking. He said: "Francis and the patrol are both outside. If there is an accident, they will go and see first. You are walking too slowly. It is better to stay here to protect me. Gnar is a ranger. He is the most suitable."

"you are right."

   The mercenary nodded, then backed away, and the bow ranger named Gnar walked out, gave a slight gesture, and ran towards the place where the sound was made.

   "Strange, could it be that the snow crushed a house? But here is the Northland, and every house has been specially reinforced. The snow is not big this year, so how could it be crushed."

   stood up, Danlia felt that the roar was unnatural. He had seen the warcraft siege and the collapse of the house. The sound just now was not very similar to the two...

   "Boom!!"

   There is another loud noise, the sound is as low as the last time, and it is much more violent than the last time. If the sound source last time was only in a relatively close place, then this time, it is downstairs!

   "After all, what's wrong with UU reading www.uukānshu.com?!"

Not only the roar, but also the tables and chairs trembling slightly, like a small earthquake. Dan Liya was surprised, and his brain was also swiftly running: "There was a roar not far before, and there was an accident downstairs not long ago. There must be a connection between the two-yes, there was an intruder. He killed the patrol and Francis, and after blasting the door, he attacked the lord's mansion directly!"

   "Joshua! Yes, it must be him! He actually made a surprise attack at this time, but how could it be possible?"

Shocked, Danlia was very regretful. He should have reacted earlier, but he had no idea that Joshua was so direct and came to the door without any reason—the current lord’s mansion, but there are more than 20 A silver rank warrior guard, how dare he? !

Danlia, thinking logically from a normal person, could not guess what Joshua was thinking at this time. He felt that his nephew had not beheaded the first time, and he would definitely lie in for a while. He saw the right time and carried out a surprise attack. The result was never expected. , Just when the lord's mansion was most heavily guarded, this guy actually did it directly!

   "Rondo, Lowen, you two too!"

   quickly issued an order, and the middle-aged man said decisively: "Call the guard mercenaries together, just say it's my order!"

   "Yes!"

   The remaining two high-ranking silver mercenaries replied loudly, and then stepped on heavy steps and ran downstairs.

   "Anyone dare to come here...Joshua, my stupid nephew, wait for the mercenaries and knights patrolling the city to come over, inside and outside, it's your death date!"
