Quadruple split

"Who told you there were only 'two' of us?"

The half-elf man looked at Yi Dong jokingly, and the curve of his mouth gradually became unscrupulous.

"What did you say……"

Because he was possessed by the arrogant and impulsive but hard-working 'Cold Sword Luca', his thinking was slightly affected. Ito's eyes widened in surprise, and then he saw the round figure from before. An old man came cheerfully from behind carrying a war hammer, followed by an orc aunt who looked to be in her forties and wore a light green rich priest robe.

At the same time, accompanied by a chaotic and orderly climbing sound, a large number of crossbowmen wearing brown leather armor and cold eyes appeared on the surrounding roofs. When Yi Dong and Bad Hot Girl were trapped in the encirclement, they were already within the attack range of hundreds of crossbow arrows.

"Can't beat it, absolutely can't beat it."

Yidong muttered in a low voice, and then the blue fire in his eyes dimmed, and the rusty long knife in his hand also lost its edge, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.

The girl behind her leaned behind Idong after a brief silence, looking timid and trembling.

"Well--"

After the fire in his eyes completely dissipated, Idong gritted his teeth and glared at the rusty knife in his hand, then suddenly smashed it into a weather-beaten tablet, and complained in a low voice while putting it in his luggage. Said: "What kind of disease did I have before? Even this stupid thing has to be the same."

The bad girl stood on tiptoes and asked softly in Yi Dong's ear: "Now... what should we do?"

"Let's wait and see."

Idong moved his body in a gentlemanly manner, allowing the girl to hold him with both hands instead of leaning against him. He narrowed his eyes and looked around at the increasingly lively scene around him. He lowered his voice and said, "Although it's a bit hindsight." suspicion, but I think it might not be that simple."

The bad girl raised her lips slightly from an angle that Yi Dong couldn't see, and nodded meekly: "Okay, I believe you will protect me."

"To be honest, I really don't have much confidence in myself."

Yidong gave a bitter laugh, then raised his head and looked directly into the eyes of the half-elf man in front of him, and said seriously: "What about that? Do you still need a handyman here? I am a thief in cleaning."

"puff--"

The afro-headed female mage who was drinking magic potion to calm down her shock spit out a large mouthful of potion worth at least five gold coins and coughed out of breath.

"Ward scolded Ya!"

The orc priestess with a thick accent took a deep breath.

"Good guy."

The old man, who finally crushed two ghost beasts, smacked his lips and sighed, "I wish we had all been enemies like this when we fought in those years."

The half-elf man, who was stronger in status and strength, looked at Yidong with a smile, and said with a subtle expression: "Even if I can't see the expression or hear the heartbeat, I still have a hundred ways to judge whether the other person is. You're lying, you actually just want us to let that girl go, right?"

Yidong nodded calmly and replied: "That's right. If possible, I would also like to meet your Excellency the Duke."

"Oh, you are quite a bachelor."

Some familiar laughter sounded from not far away. Yidong turned around and saw that the man in black armor who had first welcomed him in at the door was walking towards this side with a toothpick in his mouth, picking his teeth happily. Asked: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Idong was stunned for a moment, then looked at the scarred man with a wry smile as he walked slowly in front of the half-elf man. He felt very refreshed, and said with a dry smile: "So you are the 'Bully Duke' Valatis?"

"To be precise, it should be 'Duke Valatis Francis Brooke'."

The man corrected him in a brisk tone, then turned to look at the chubby old man cheerfully, and said with a sly smile: "As for Mr. Foer, he is the 'Bully Duke' in your mouth. Although his name is not Valatis, nor is he a Duke."

The old man known as Fore laughed, rubbed his red rosacea and said happily: "But to be honest, being this 'Bully Duke' is not as comfortable as being a cook in the past."

"You still have the nerve to say it?"

The orc aunt next to him kicked him angrily and rolled her eyes: "Which cook would go out with a frying spoon and smash people's heads as soon as the battle got a little more intense? At that time, everyone was scared every day when eating, for fear of Eat the brains of God knows which unlucky guy."

Foer coughed slightly and said nonchalantly: "I didn't use a hammer later..."

"But you're a fucking cook!"

The orc aunt angrily gave the old man a slap in the face and cursed through gritted teeth: "I scold you because I want you to cook well in the rear, instead of using another fucking guy to continue smashing the enemy's head!"

"Haha, okay, okay, Sister Reya, please don't interrupt us. Our guests are still confused without looking at us."

The scar-faced man in black armor, the middle-aged man who called himself Duke Volatis, chuckled and asked Idong and the Bad Girl: "What else do you want to know?"

Although he is not as smart as Mo Tan, he is definitely not stupid. Yi Dong smacked his lips and asked: "There are too many things I want to know. If you don't mind, let me first tell you what the reputation of 'Bully Duke' is." It would be so... uh..."

"So disgusting?"

Valatis happily interrupted Idong, and then he sat cross-legged on the ground and said in a particularly slovenly manner: "It's simple, because I had people publicize those comments."

Yidong, who had expected this, nodded and asked: "What's the reason?"

"There are too many reasons, but the most important thing is probably that I want my good friend who is the emperor to have less trouble."

Volatis shrugged, spread his hands and said: "After all, the influence of the two names 'Varatis' and [Steel Blood Army] is a bit too great. From the time I joined the army, whether it was the rebels or the invaders, Well, even the damn monsters that escaped from the mountains had to be dealt with by me and my brothers. My reputation has also increased. To be honest, if I were the emperor, I would almost be bigger than myself with such a reputation. I am also worried about the troops under control."

Yidong nodded slightly and summed up concisely: "The master is shocked by his great achievements."

"That's right, that's what it means. Great achievements will shock the Lord."

Valatis nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "But actually our emperor doesn't think I am a threat. After all, he was a hypocrite who worshiped me back then. Everyone knows the other's temper, so he never planned to He attacked me, but he didn't have any ideas, which doesn't mean others don't have any ideas either. It's okay for those with ulterior motives, after all, the motive is there, it doesn't matter if I kill them, but I can't let that person act like he doesn't even listen to his good words. The bastard ruler, right?"

Yidong frowned and speculated: "So in order not to make things difficult for the emperor, you have been working hard to discredit yourself after retiring from military duties? Just to reduce your prestige and influence?"

"Yeah, anyway, my wife died in the war and she didn't leave me a son or daughter. What's the use of having a reputation?"

Valatis grinned and said cheerfully: "Now the country has just stabilized, and the world is not peaceful yet. With a beast like the old lecherous bully Duke here, the girls don't even dare to go out at night, and the chance of an accident is very low. It will be much smaller. As for men, just leave it like this. If there is really no one outside, I’m afraid I won’t even have a place to drink at night.”

Yidong was stunned for a moment and said curiously: "You don't always go to a fixed time and place every time you go out... Oh!!"

"Haha, did you react?"

Seeing the look of surprise on Idong's face, Valatis immediately laughed triumphantly and said happily: "That's what happened, because there are many people who have actually seen Varatis, and most of them are in the imperial capital. The eastern part of the empire is located, so I specifically asked someone to use this city in the west of the empire as the center of my territory. Then, considering that my tall and majestic image was not suitable for playing a villain, I called a certain fat-headed cook My uncle will help me play the role of the 'Bully Duke'. By the way, the 'Insider' who often informs the people in the city is actually me."

Yi Dong twitched the corners of his lips and said dryly: "That's okay..."

"That's great. Anyway, everyone likes me very much now. If nothing else, I don't need to pay for drinking when I go out."

Valatis grinned proudly, raised his eyebrows and said, "I've said so much, how about you briefly introduce yourself? Brother Immortal."

"I'm just a necromancer with good values."

Yidong, who had realized that he had been tricked by the system mission, sighed and said casually: "Some time ago, I was chased by the indiscriminate priests of the Sun Sect, and I came here while running. I heard that there was a vicious bully Duke in the city, so I wanted to come to do justice for God and eliminate harm for the people, but in the end, I was forced into a desperate situation. Oh, by the way, this girl is a local girl who you all kept in the dark. This person was semi-coerced by me."

Valatis laughed, spread his hands and said: "Tsk tsk, isn't the road rough? I guess so, but brother, you are still a bit foolhardy after all. I am also a duke, even if it is really the 'bully' in the rumors , the strength has also regressed to a high level as in the rumors, and it is not something that a single person like you can kill. Apart from anything else, you are the only ones around you who can only fight and kill, and just rely on me. You can't just throw away a bastard who's hungry for food."

The half-elf man smiled at Idong, leaned over and saluted: "Hello, I am the scout captain of the [Steel Blood Army], Lampard."

The dwarf female mage with an afro made a military salute lazily: "Second seat of the [Steel Blood Army] Spell Choir, Didier."

The fake Duke, who had a round figure and a rosacea nose, stroked his beard and showed a friendly smile that chose people to eat: "The person in charge of the [Steel-blooded Army] cooking team, Ful Drake."

The orc aunt beside him smacked her lips and said carelessly: "He belongs to the Abundance Sect and is the Patriarch of the [Steel-Blooded Army], Reya Hodel."

"how to say……"

Yidong scratched his hair, breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Although I don't understand it very well, I always feel that your fashion value is very high."

Although he didn't understand what 'fashion value' was, Duke Valatis just smiled and didn't ask for more details. He just changed the topic casually: "In short, everything today seems to be just a misunderstanding. Logically speaking, Speaking of which, I should let you go, but brother, your status as a Necromancer is a bit special after all, so for the safety of the people, I'm afraid I have to ask you and your lady to stay here first. Let my 'former' scout captain do a brief investigation for a while."

Hearing this, Yi Dong immediately thought quickly in his mind, and soon realized that this might be a good opportunity to seize the advantage, so he smiled and said: "Of course, no problem, as long as I don't have to pay for the food myself." .”

"Haha, don't worry. With Old Ful here, no one will go hungry. He can even fry the bark until it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."

Seeing that Idong agreed so happily, Valatis raised his hand generously and asked the crossbowmen to retreat.

"Oh, right."

Yi Dong suddenly slapped his head and asked curiously: "Why didn't you see the warlock?"

"Warlock?"

Valatis blinked in confusion and asked, "What warlock?"

"It was the warlock who summoned hellfire to kill two of my undead creatures before and 'saved' her."

Yi Dong pointed at the bad girl behind him and sighed: "If you think about it carefully, that person probably thought Miss Juana was being held hostage and acted righteously."

Duke Valatis suddenly frowned and said softly: "Although I can understand what you are saying, the problem is... there are no 'warlocks' among the old subordinates who come here to work with me."

【! ? 】

Yidong's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he turned around suddenly to look at someone who had been silent since just now, and his right hand quickly reached towards the black tablet on the inside of his clothes.

But his movements were still half a beat too slow.

Buzz—! ! !

With a tearing sound that made one's teeth sore, a miserable green trident burning with evil flames instantly penetrated Idong's chest. The evil fire filled with corrosive aura soared into the sky, burning mercilessly for eternity. The family's decaying body will not be triggered to cause fatal damage.

Duke Volatis and his friends were all stunned, and then subconsciously wanted to rush forward to save this necromancer who seemed to have no evil intentions.

However……

"Don't even come here!"

The girl holding the murderous weapon stopped several people without looking back, her eyes filled with a burning resentment that would have made even a few battle-hardened warriors tremble, if it had any substance——

"This scumbag bitch lied to me about my relationship! I must end it with him today!"
