Demon Royal Family

Three low-level students killed a storm-level warrior. This was simply a miracle. Everyone was dumbfounded and shocked. Seeing that their leader died in battle, the bandits lost their will to fight and fled in all directions.

Ivo's body felt like a rag that had been roughly twisted by someone. The pain hit his nerves and senses like waves, getting more intense each time, as if it would not stop until he fainted from the pain.

Ivo managed to gather his energy and counted the remaining people. There were less than ten people standing. They were all exhausted, including himself. He could only smile bitterly.

In order to kill Kalilban, Ivo had exhausted all means, and a large part of it was due to luck. If Kalilban was still on guard against him in the end, Ivo's final instant stab would only cause minor injuries at most.

The Demon Apostle form was used when falling off the cliff, and it is still cooling down.

Although Ivo has the ability to transform, the most surprised person after the transformation will definitely be his partners. Instead, he will lose tacit understanding and trust. Although his personal strength is enhanced, it will destroy the cooperation of the team, and the gain will not be worth the loss. After all, having two more human shields is better than taking all the damage yourself.

"Mr. Ivo, we are prosperous," Ander limped to Ivo's side, unable to control himself with excitement: "The bounty of Kalilban is 2 million Benas. Oh my God, I feel like I'm It’s like a dream.”

Ivo sat up with difficulty and said angrily: "I didn't see you when we were beaten just now, why are you running out now?"

Ender's face was stern: "I'm afraid of holding you back, and... and I'm also very afraid."

Ivo gave him a look that made Ender feel ashamed.

This encounter was unexpected, but the result was pretty good. The Blood Scorpion Thieves were destroyed by accident, and those who could still move began to rescue the wounded.

David looked at Kalilban's body with a complicated expression. The culprit who killed a large number of Hurricane students died at the hands of Ivo, whom he disliked. He felt that he, as a mentor, was not as good as a student. He felt extremely complicated. , frustrated, sad, sad...

Just as Ivo and others were limping to clean up the battlefield, a group of mercenaries ran from the direction of Liema Town. They were shocked when they saw the tragic situation on the scene. Then, a mercenary carrying a giant ax with two hands noticed. The corpse of the Blood Scorpion leader suddenly looked ecstatic and shouted: "It's Kalilban! He's dead!"

"What!"

"Oh my God, did these people do it?"

"This is a huge bounty!"

All the mercenaries were startled, and they all rushed up with a roar. After confirming the identity of the corpse, their eyes lit up, and then they scanned Ivo and others vigilantly. They saw that Ivo and others were seriously injured and in a state of death. It was extremely bad, so he relaxed his expression. Even though he was surprised that Calilban died at the hands of Ivo and others, it seemed that both sides suffered losses. Ivo and others had no strength to fight anymore, and there was no threat to them.

In this way, they had the opportunity to take Kalilban's body and exchange it for the bounty. Thinking of this, the mercenaries looked excited and excited.

The mercenaries stared at Calilban with greedy eyes, pushed each other, and loudly argued about how to distribute the bounty. The giant axe mercenary shouted: "Don't argue, we will share the bounty equally."

The mercenaries completely ignored Ivo and others present, as if Calilban's body was already in their possession.

Deken solemnly shouted: "We are Madi's troops, do you want to go against the lord?"

The mercenaries laughed: "Madi has been hacked to death by Kalilban a long time ago!"

Deken was stunned on the spot as if struck by lightning. David raised his sword to stand in front of Kalilban's body, defending Ivo's victory, and said coldly: "It's not that easy to snatch the body and get the bounty."

The mercenaries looked at the group of weak soldiers, smiled mockingly, and drew their weapons to surround them.

"Kill you, and the bounty will also belong to us." A mercenary said with a cruel smile.

"Leave now and we will spare you."

This is also the norm for adventurers and mercenaries. They fight for precious trophies such as treasures and materials. Ordinary mercenaries can only earn a few thousand benas for a normal employment. For them, Kalilban’s bounty is The sky-high price is enough to arouse greed and madness in the heart.

These mercenaries had just escaped from the battle, but now they came to grab the credit with confidence, bullying Ivo and others, and the thieves group, both sides lost. This is also a portrayal of most mercenaries, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Ivo stood up forcefully and silently assumed a fighting posture, his meaning self-explanatory.

"Seek death!" the giant axe mercenary yelled, and the ax hit his head with a whirring sound. Ivo took a deep breath, and his face was pale as it affected his injuries. He endured the dull pain of broken ribs in his chest. , holding the war spear at one end and the other, exerting force suddenly, and twisting it inward, the war spear bent like a big bow. As soon as he let go, the spear and bow collapsed, slamming into the chest of the giant axe mercenary.

The giant axe mercenary's sternum cracked and he rolled several times on the ground like a gourd before passing out.

The war spear that bounced back was caught by Ivo. He destroyed a mercenary's combat effectiveness with one blow. He endured the pain and gasped: "Who else?"

The mercenaries were restrained by Ivo's hand and hesitated. At this time, one of the mercenaries shouted: "He is seriously injured and not a big threat. Let's go together!"

Ivo tightened his grip on the war spear with a stern look on his face. He took a deep breath to suppress his injuries and prepared for battle.

Just when the situation was about to break out, a black-haired nobleman approached slowly on a horse, glanced at the mercenary, and said one word lightly: "Get out."

The mercenaries were about to curse, but the black-haired nobleman took out a gold badge from the horse's luggage, with a brocade engraved on it and a lance surrounded by flowers.

"You are...oh my god!"

The mercenaries instantly lost their voices. There was only one person in the entire Kingdom of Lasses who was qualified to possess this medal, and it was easy for that person to crush them regardless of his identity or strength. They immediately left in despair, looking extremely embarrassed from behind. Embarrassed, completely different from the arrogant look just now.

"Thank you." Ivo gasped and thanked him. He caught a glimpse of David beside him, who looked like he had seen a ghost. He was even more confused as to the identity of the knight who suddenly appeared.

The black-haired nobleman dismounted and came to Ivo with a calm smile: "You are very good."

"Uh... should I thank you for your compliment?" Ivo smiled and screamed in his heart: "Oh no, someone is showing off, and the situation is out of control!"

"You are a student of Hurricane Academy, right? You have done me a big favor. What is your name?" The black-haired aristocrat has a peaceful temperament, no aristocratic arrogance at all, and is very well-educated. Ivo had a good impression of him and replied: " My name is Ivo."

"It's a pleasure to meet a talented student like you. Kill the Khalil class who attacked the royal capital. Your name is destined to appear on the "Academy Star"," the black-haired nobleman said with a smile, "I forgot to introduce myself. , my name is Donald.”

"...Hello, Mr. Donald, thank you so much." Ivo was very calm. He didn't know who Donald was at all. David on the side was going crazy and reminded in a low voice: "Donald is the first knight of the kingdom. , the leader of the King's Spear, is a real big shot!"

Ivo was stunned, then turned to Donald and asked curiously: "He said that you are the first knight of the kingdom. You seem to be a big shot and you seem to be very powerful. Is it true?"

David fell head over heels, have you ever asked someone face to face like this?

Donald didn't feel embarrassed, but found it interesting. He slightly raised his lips, "Kalilban was not only the leader of a band of thieves, he was also an officer of the Kingdom of Baria. He secretly accepted funding from Baria and robbed the Kingdom of Laces. caravan, he is the target of my pursuit, you helped me, I will accompany you to the nearest city to collect the bounty, and then I need his body to be revived, I hope my accompanying will not disturb you."

"That's okay, you will definitely disturb... huh huh," Ivo said before Ender covered his mouth tightly and dragged him away.

David wiped his sweat and said, "This is our honor."

Donald smiled slightly and looked at Ivo, who was arguing with Ender, with curiosity in his eyes.

As a heraldic knight above level 10, Donald has the powerful ability to destroy the entire Blood Scorpion Thieves Group on his own, but this does not prevent him from being amazed that three low-level students crossed four or five levels to kill Kalil's class. As long as Kalil If Ban had been careful, Ivo and the others would definitely be dead, but they seized the opportunity that Kalilban had neglected and completed an almost impossible kill, which made him marvel.

If Kalirban were a stronger level 8 warrior, then Ivo and others would end up defeated no matter what they did. The gap in strength can be filled with skills and tactics, but if the gap is too big, it will mean defeating ten warriors with one force. What kind of strategy is that? It's no use.

Level 10 is the watershed in the strength of the three melee professions of warrior, knight, and swordsman. Below level 10, although the gap in basic strength (that is, physical strength, sword energy power, and purity of holy light) between each level gradually increases, overall, It is said that the difference is not big, level 8 and level 9 can fight for a long time.

However, it is another level above level 10. The gap between levels is as difficult to bridge as a chasm. Only those above level 10 are truly strong. A level 10 strong person can easily defeat dozens of level 9 players.

When the melee profession reaches level 10 or above, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, reaching truly extraordinary levels, with destructive power catching up with mages. There is a ridiculing lyric circulating among the bards: "Warriors avoid the flames of mages, swordsmen are afraid of mages. The shadow of the knight, you are afraid of the poison of the mage, mages, please stop laughing, there is a level 10 humanoid monster over there."

…

The group returned to the lord's longhouse in Liema Town. Bilis and Mary, who had been hiding, breathed a sigh of relief and ran out to join them. After learning about the situation from David, Bilis glanced at Ivo from time to time, her eyes shining brightly. But Ivo didn't notice it. At this time, he was silently looking at Madi who had broken a hand and was speechless. Under Mary's treatment, Madi finally saved his life.

Ivo whispered to the unconscious Madi: "Sorry..."

Everyone was exhausted and went to rest, but Ivo came to Bilis and said, "I have something to talk to you about."

"What's up?"

Bilis' tone was calm, but for some reason, Ivo always felt that her eyes were avoiding his own.

"I have a request," Ivo sighed: "Madi suffered a misfortune because of me. I will feel guilty if I don't compensate him. I hope you can allow the Jinmeili Chamber of Commerce to open up a new trade route, passing through Liejie." Horse Town.”

When talking about business, Bilis suddenly became serious. After thinking for a while, she frowned and said: "Liema Town is located in a remote area. It takes a lot of manpower, material resources and time to open up a new route. Moreover, this route is very barren and it is an absolute loss-making business. , although I am grateful to you for saving me, business is business and I can’t do this.”

Ivo scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and suddenly remembered something. He took out a stack of paper filled with writing from the space ring, flipped it over and handed it to Bilis, "I am one of the bosses behind the Black Rose Chamber of Commerce. If If you are willing to open up this trade route, I will facilitate large-scale commercial cooperation between Black Rose and Jinmeili and compensate you for your losses."

The Black Rose Chamber of Commerce is naturally the chamber of commerce run by the Dark Eyes in Lasces. The funds for its activities come from this, which is very important. Even if Ivo becomes the black bishop in charge of this area, the decision-making power is still in the hands of the president of the chamber of commerce. He also Only part of the management rights can be shared.

This stack of paper is the Chamber of Commerce Management Agreement, stamped with the seal of the Black Rose Chamber of Commerce. After Sistine gave him the black book, Paro sorted out the Black Eye's industrial documents in Lasces and gave them to Yi Wo, who had been left to collect dust in the corner of the space ring, was now used to prove his identity.

He cannot ask the Black Rose Chamber of Commerce to open up trade routes, but he still has the power to promote cooperation between chambers of commerce.

Ivo used his status and connections to build a communication bridge between two unrelated chambers of commerce, and proposed conditions to one of them to achieve the goal in a curved way. This was the method he came up with.

I always feel like a middle man...

Looking at the agreement in Ivo's hand, Bilis was stunned. It took a long time to hold back a sentence: "You are so rich and you still work as a mercenary. Are you sick?!"

The image of Ivo in her heart became more and more mysterious. Bilis was full of curiosity. How many identities did Ivo have? !
