Chapter 1767 Drinking Violently
With a serious look on his face, Boss Rennes told this story, which was regarded as a secret history by his family.
After finishing speaking, I asked him: "As far as you know, besides you, how many people know about Di Ruigi?"
Boss Renne shook his head and said: "No more. The descendants of several other families have been killed by the Carter family."
I snorted coldly and said, "I didn't expect that the Carter family's practice of wantonly oppressing the descendants of legendary heroes would have unexpected gains."
Immediately, I sighed softly and said: "But thinking about it on the other hand, these people who were killed must have been heroes with extraordinary strength, otherwise the Carter family would not have easily raised the butcher knife."
"He is indeed a hero," Boss Ren said: "One of them was my childhood friend. He reached the exaggerated level thirteen when he was only a teenager. Unfortunately, before he could grow up, he was assassinated by the former city lord. .”
"As beautiful as a tree is in the forest, the wind will destroy it. What's more, he is a descendant of a legendary hero. He will be regarded as a thorn in the side of the Carter family. Moreover, this young hero is definitely not the type to be manipulated casually. Since he is unwilling to take orders from the Carter family, , the only thing is to be strangled."
Boss Rennes sighed deeply and said nothing.
After that, we found a house in the slums, asked for some water, and got some food. Before leaving, we gave the hostess a gold coin as a reward.
It was only a gold coin, but the hostess was so shocked that she stared blankly at the gold coin in her hand, not knowing whether to take it back or hand it back.
Looking at her dull expression, I smiled slightly and walked out of the street with Boss Ren.
After barely eating and drinking enough, we wandered around the streets of the slums.
On the street, there were many children, running around with bare feet, making crisp laughter from time to time.
Following the ragged but smiling children, Boss Lane, who had remained silent, suddenly said: "In the slums, the vast majority of children are unfortunate, but they are also lucky."
"Lucky?" I asked in confusion: "Where is the luck?"
"They will not be persecuted by the powerful because of their status. The vast majority of children can grow up healthily."
"But when they grow up, they will have to face the most severe problems." I said calmly: "Without identity, background, and strength, they can only do the hardest work and earn the meager salary. .”
"This is also a way of survival," Boss Ren said: "At least they can continue their bloodline."
Looking at him in surprise, I nodded and agreed: "If you look at it from this point of view, you are right."
It was getting dark, and it was already past seven o'clock in the evening.
We arrived at the previously decided location and gathered with the descendants of the legendary heroes.
There were many people coming this time, hundreds of people.
In the dim night, hundreds of people gathered in one place, like the black tide of a river, making people feel slightly suffocated.
The twenty or so people who had met with me before came out first and stood in front of me. The first person said: "All the descendants of the legendary heroes in the capital of Ai Rui City have arrived and are at your command."
I raised my eyes and glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "My name is An Xiaoyi, and I am the prime minister of Dasai City. I am here this time. Under the order of the Orc King, I will take you back to Dasai City and give you everything you deserve. .”
There was a commotion in the crowd, hundreds of people chatting like a swarm of insects.
After calming down, I continued: "Everyone must have heard a little bit about the intention of His Majesty's move, but I still want to emphasize once again that the reason why His Majesty did this was entirely because he was grateful for the fearless sacrifices of his ancestors and believed that the heroic children You don’t deserve this disaster, he will give your family’s honor to you again, and let the light of your ancestors shine on Zephyr Continent again!”
"Thank you, His Majesty the Orc King, for your gift." Boss Renn raised his arms and shouted, "Long live Your Majesty!"
The excitement spread instantly to everyone present, and hundreds of people roared excitedly, causing many residents to secretly open their doors and windows to watch.
I quickly raised my hands to signal everyone to be quiet.
Then, I told the two dozen representatives about my plan to leave in a magic airship.
The representatives all expressed their agreement, and they all eagerly hoped to leave this painful place as soon as possible.
Just as we were about to take a detour to the magic airship base, someone behind us suddenly shouted: "Look, there are lights ahead!"
I immediately stopped and stared, and sure enough, dozens of faint lights were shining on the street less than a hundred meters ahead.
These rays of light seem weak, but they are very warm. If my prediction is correct, these must be the rays of light emitted by the magic stone. It is just that it has been specially processed to cover most of the light, making it appear weak.
Anyone who can afford this type of magic stone must not be a poor person.
Maybe these lamp-holders are the army of adventurers sent by the Carter family to destroy us!
"Boss Ren," I shouted in a low voice, "Please help me see how many people are near the light?"
"Yes" Boss Ren responded and walked away quickly.
His figure quickly disappeared into the dim night, and no trace could be found.
I was nervously waiting for Boss Ren's return. At this moment, a strong uneasiness suddenly came over me. I subconsciously took a step forward and turned around. I saw a representative who was closer to me, his arm suddenly stretched forward. I don't know when a sharp dagger appeared in my palm.
Although I knew I might be betrayed, I still felt very angry when the betrayal actually happened.
I didn't draw the knife in a hurry, but asked him: "Why do you do this?"
The man didn't answer my question, but turned his wrist, pointed the tip of the knife horizontally, and stabbed the person next to him.
Seeing this scene, I instantly burst into rage, filled with murderous intent, wrapping the entire gauntlet, reaching forward, and firmly grasped the dagger.
However, at this moment, I saw a cold smiling face, it was the representative who was about to be stabbed.
My heart suddenly went cold: "Oops, I fell into a trap!"
Too late, but not too long, the representative in front of me took out an equally sharp dagger from his sleeve without hesitation, pointed it at my throat and stabbed me.
This dagger came so fast, I couldn't avoid it!
My pupils shrank suddenly, and I became desperate. I watched the dagger getting closer and closer, even touching my throat, piercing my skin, and in the next second, it would pierce my throat.
At this critical moment, one of the representatives closest to us suddenly shouted loudly, white light glowed all over his body, and his beard and hair were spread out, like a lion!
This violent shout not only made my ears buzz, but also made the representative who was about to commit the murder tremble all over and became stunned on the spot.
