Noble Emblem

Liang Lidong snorted coldly and directly hit the stalker's abdomen with his knee. The latter grunted in pain, then curled up on the ground and vomited stomach acid. When he was almost vomiting, Liang Lidong squatted down, placed the dark element energy ball in his hand on the man's forehead, and said coldly: "Last chance, I am a spell caster, I can see a Do people lie? Although I don’t want to attack ordinary people, if you are still stubborn, killing a ruffian is not a special thing to me. "

The dark element ball exuded a biting chill, and coupled with Liang Lidong's cold face, the man's spirit finally collapsed, and he shouted: "No, please, don't play with my soul, I'm going to do it all." He took a breath, held his head and said, "Master Charles asked me to follow you, just half an hour ago."

Liang Lidong asked: "Who is Charles!"

"He is the priest of the Temple of Life!"

Knocking the man unconscious with one punch, Liang Lidong walked out of the alley. The Temple of Life sent someone to follow him half an hour ago, but he had not arrived at the castle for two hours. This efficiency was abnormal... Liang Lidong suspected that there was a mole in the castle, and his position was not low, so he should know about Uther Most of the layout. In fact, this is quite reasonable when you think about it. Gods and religions are widely accepted in this world. It is not strange for someone in Uther's forces to believe in the goddess of life. Such people can easily be incited to rebel.

Liang Lidong returned to the castle, and this time no one followed him along the way. As soon as he returned to the main hall of the castle, he bumped into Uther coming down from the stairs.

Seeming to be a little dissatisfied, Uther said lightly: "Your Excellency Beta, please tell me before you go out next time, and I will send some soldiers to protect you. If the caster does not have a 'shield', it is easy for something to happen. You, as a An experienced mercenary should know this."

Bao Seer actually knew about Liang Lidong's close combat swordsmanship. He heard about it from Ba Ba La, and Ba Ba La heard Kyle talking about it. But he didn't think too much about Liang Lidong's close combat swordsmanship. It was probably above the level of an ordinary person, but not to the level of a professional swordsman. But his idea is actually wrong. Liang Lidong's melee swordsmanship ability is indeed not very strong, but it depends on who he compares with... In the game, there are countless physical professions that specialize in melee attacks, and players all like to choose It was extreme, and most of the melee professionals had full physical growth of '10', as well as many melee specialties. Liang Lidong, a half-assed compound professional, could compete with them in swordsmanship, and of course he could only barely protect himself.

But the problem is with NPCs and professionals in the real world. Not many of them are born with full physical fitness. In addition, they may not be able to learn expertise that perfectly suits their profession. If we just talk about swordsmanship, this world is better than Liang. There are indeed people who are good at Lidong, and the number seems to be quite large, but once averaged, it seems to be very few. Maybe among a hundred melee professionals, you may not be able to find a person who is more powerful than him in swordsmanship.

Because he didn't understand Liang Lidong's ability, it was normal for Uther to be worried and dissatisfied.

Liang Lidong didn't feel that he was insulted. He smiled and explained: "I just went out to investigate some things, and then I was followed."

"Following?" Uther's expression changed: "What's going on?"

"I subdued the person who was following me, and then tortured me and revealed that the messenger was Charles from the Temple of Life." Liang Lidong looked around, and then said: "It's not unusual for the Temple of Life to send people to follow me. What's strange is that it didn't take long after I left. , they stuck together. And I arrived at the castle less than three hours ago, how did the people in the Temple of Life know about my existence? So I suspect that someone disclosed my information."

"I understand." Uther's expression changed, and then he said: "It's almost lunch time. Sir Beta, please go back to your room and wait for a short while. When the meal time comes, I will send someone to invite you."

Liang Lidong nodded and walked up the stairs, while Uther walked out of the main hall with a gloomy face... There are many stupid people in this world, and there are also many smart people. Liang Lidong just nodded a little, and Uther knew that there must be a traitor inside him. Generally, big aristocratic families have their own unique methods of detecting traitors. Liang Lidong estimated that it wouldn't take long for Uther to detect the traitor.

After returning to the bedroom on the seventh floor, Liang Lidong took a short rest. Soon the maid came over and invited him downstairs for dinner. When he went down to the fourth floor, he met Rex, who brought his bodyguard with him. When he saw Liang Lidong, he snorted disdainfully, and then came down the stairs first with a sense of resentment.

When he arrived at the main hall, Liang Lidong found that everyone was here and he was sitting at the end. This position is not very good either in a physical sense or in a spiritual sense.

, no respectable noble will sit down, but Liang Lidong is different. Although he uses his status as a 'divine noble', he does not have much sense of identification with the noble class, so for him, the front position is ,it is not important.

The most conspicuous person in the crowd was Babara. She was holding a black cat with a crescent moon on her forehead and smiling happily.

Turn your house cat into a familiar? Liang Lidong felt a looming spiritual power from the black cat. Both are cats. Compared with leopards and tigers, domestic cats have much lower attack power. However, on the other hand, small cats like domestic cats, once they become familiars, are better at sneaking and anti-stealth. He has more professional abilities, almost comparable to assassins of the same level.

Moreover, domestic cat magic pets are not without fighting capabilities. No matter how small they are, they are still magic pets. If any profession of the same level is scratched by this little thing on a vital part, it will not be too uncomfortable.

Seeing Liang Lidong, Babara smiled at him and expressed her gratitude silently.

Liang Lidong nodded to her, and then looked at the young woman beside her. This woman was wearing a lavender dress and looked very similar to Babara. Liang Lidong had seen her once half a year ago and knew that she was Babala's mother, the wife of the city lord of Dongfeng City. This young woman had a good figure and a faint sense of heroism. Liang Lidong guessed that she was either a warrior or a cavalry. Anyway, she was definitely a melee physics profession.

After sizing up the city lord's wife for a moment, Liang Lidong lowered his gaze to the table, and then his lips twitched slightly... There were several portions of Starry Sky on the table, and then there were several portions of mashed potatoes and fish, plus several portions of mashed potatoes and fish. of honey bread. Liang Lidong lost his appetite after seeing the first two items of food, especially the fish that looked up at the starry sky with their eyes open, so the honey bread could barely be considered as edible food.

Seeing everyone gathered, Uther raised his glass: "I feel like everyone trusts us, the Langman family, to come here as a guest. Although it is indeed difficult at the moment, as long as we persist for another three months, victory will definitely belong to us. For Cheers to a bright future ahead!”

A few people raised their glasses from afar, then drank it all in one gulp. This meal was a good meal, at least on the surface, but Liang Lidong didn't know what it was like privately. After lunch, Liang Lidong was about to take a rest when Uther said: "Your Excellency, please come with me."

There were only two people in the study. Uther asked the other party to sit down, and then said: "Your Excellency Beta, thank you for reminding us. We have found out the traitor. There are six people, one of whom is an adjutant I trusted before. Please come here this time. One is to explain Regarding this matter, the second thing I want to ask is, what do you think of the current situation?"

"Same as the city lord, wait!"

Uther smiled bitterly: "It can only be like this. It's really frustrating. If it was an enemy country, I would have led the army to press on it. Why bother to work so hard."

Uther has a lot of troops, and in terms of real combat effectiveness, the City Lord's Mansion is actually much stronger than the Temple of Life. But the problem is that the Temple of Life is not an ‘enemy’, at least on the surface, no one thinks it is. The dispute over gold mines is, to put it bluntly, a struggle for interests. Both sides can assassinate, poison, and engage in economic warfare, etc. But they cannot engage in large-scale battles on the surface and cannot use the army. Otherwise, even if they win, they will be destroyed because of the destruction. He broke the rules, but other nobles found an excuse to unite with the army to annihilate him.

Moreover, the Temple of Life is not unique to Winterwind City. It is one of the religious beliefs spread across the entire continent. If Uther violates the superficial rules of fighting, the Temple of Life will definitely launch a holy war and wipe out Winterwind City. .

Liang Lidong smiled and said: "Don't be depressed. Similarly, the Temple of Life has no way to launch a holy war. This is a good thing for us."

"It is indeed a good thing!" Uther was a little helpless, but he quickly cheered up: "I will go to the gold mine with my wife to inspect the situation later. I am afraid that assassins will ambush us, so I want to ask for your help. Busy, come with us. You know how to fight assassins and have great experience. I hope you can protect my wife later. Although she is a cavalry and has good abilities, she still lacks combat experience and needs to accumulate it. .”

"Okay, no problem. I just planned to go to the gold mine to see the situation." Liang Lidong stood up and was about to go out, but suddenly turned around and asked: "City Lord, you and the City Lord's wife are both young, why don't you want to If I have another child, maybe it will be a boy.”

Uther replied: "If it was so easy, I would have had more children. Anyway, after Kyle and Babara get married, their first boy must be from the Longman family. I am not worried that the family will have no heirs." "
