Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 10: Here in 1 case
Rolf, the once hopeful star of the Blood Bottle Gang, and the only super master in the Twelve Xeon, experienced **** and despair, and finally reunited with Thales a month later.
"Congratulations, I still struggled," Thales smiled and nodded: "I didn't lose to this **** world."
Rolf shivered slightly, and opened his mouth abruptly, his throat trembling with flesh and blood, but he could only make an unexplained mumble.
He also knows that he can't say anything now.
Faced with such a situation, Thales didn't know how to react.
"It's okay, what do you want to say..." He scratched his head: "Just write it down with a pen."
Rolf's eyes darkened.
"We tried it," Gilbert sighed. "He doesn't know how to read--except for numbers, he can't even write his name."
Hearing this, Rolf closed his eyes with low self-esteem and lowered his head.
Thales was a little embarrassed.
He almost forgot that Rolf is a gangster. Thales, who has been a beggar, knows that most of the people who go into gangsters have unfortunate encounters and make a living in illegal activities every day. Naturally, there is no chance to receive a decent education.
But the next moment, under Thales’s surprised gaze, Rolf gritted his teeth, struggling with crutches, lowered his mutilated body, towards the small and weak Thales...
bow deeply.
Thales sighed:
"Okay, your thanks, I have received it."
Rolf raised his head, trembling, and looked at Thales.
"What are your plans for the future? Is there any place to go? I don't recommend that you return the blood bottle to help..."
Rolf shuddered slightly.
Back to the blood bottle help? Back to the big sister... back to Catherine's men?
He looked at his leg, showing pain.
Besides, there is Nekra...
Thinking of the enemy who stabbed a knife from behind, Rolf's eyes shot sharply.
A few seconds later, Rolf exhaled with an ability and shook his head sadly.
Thales looked at him steadily.
"Okay," the traveler smiled: "Then you can keep it with me for the time being... You should be able to support you."
Rolf's eyes lit up.
This boy...In addition to being his savior, his identity also has a lot of background...
"Gilbert," Thales turned his head and looked at Count Caso: "How long will we have to leave for Exeter?"
"It depends on the contact time of Believe Crow to Longxiao City, at least three days," Gilbert smiled and said: "At most one week, Your Highness."
"It should be enough."
Thales nodded, then he looked at Rolf:
"In the past few days, during the day, come to my study."
Rolf gave a surprised expression.
I saw the boy who had always been confident and optimistic, in the desperate predicament, let him choose "freedom or struggle", with a smile on his face:
"I'll teach you how to read, and by the way, teach you how to speak with gestures."
——————————
The 31-year-old Jenard, the captain of the city defense under the Dongcheng District Security Department, fell into the dungeon of the creeper manor, panting.
He was wounded all over, bound by heavy chains, unable to move.
But there was a voice in my heart telling him that he must never... never speak.
No matter how these great noblemen tortured and beat him, no matter how threatened and lured them...
No matter how much they want to know, what is the origin of the cavalry that appeared outside the creeper manor in Dongcheng District that night,
He has to grit his teeth.
After the meeting in the country, Jenard unloaded the task of maintaining order in Xingju Square. Just the next morning, his boss brought a group of police officers to Dongcheng District, where he was on duty.
In front of him and all of his soldiers, the boss read out the guilt of Jenard: Someone reported him to take bribes while on duty in Dongcheng District.
Jenard sighed immediately.
It’s not because this is a false accusation, but because in Dongcheng District, tipping is collected by the nobles. This has long been recognized as a custom and ethos. Every soldier in the city defense team, even the guards, will charge Such a tip, the Security Department knows well-they will draw money every time, get oil and water-this is also the only extra money that Jenard can get for his low-paid team members.
Why, Dudu will be reported? His soldiers also looked shocked.
But Jerald, who has been in Dongcheng District for almost twelve years, didn't know how-he probably offended a big man.
With ten guards watching all the time, Genard had only time to cherish and maintain himself for twelve years, and he was reluctant to leave the saber-that was after the Duke of Xinghu retreated in the Walla Corridor. Seeing that he has no weapons, he unwrapped and handed it to him ("Use this for the flour in your hand, because of you, at least we have a full meal to eat."-Duke John) gift with it With the emblem of the nine-pointed star-handed it to a young man in the team that he is most optimistic about, he was locked with his hands and feet, covered his head and carried a carriage, and came to a manor.
The carriage went round and round, but Jenard patrolled the Dongcheng District for more than ten years. When he was a soldier, he did not lose the habit of observing and remembering the way in the Star Corps. How could he not recognize him? This is what he patrols three times a day, Kevin Deere’s creepy manor?
A group of people who looked like soldiers had tortured Jenard for two days.
is nothing else.
just to ask, that group of cavalry, that group of cavalry who broke into the Dongcheng District at night, maybe even the cavalry who broke into Kevin Deer’s creepy manor...
What the **** is ?
But Gernard can’t say.
He can't speak.
is nothing else.
just for that group of cavalry, they... come from... the Royal Family of the Nine-pointed Star.
That is the nine-pointed star of John, the nine-pointed star of the Duke of Xinghu, the nine-pointed star of the Star Legion, the nine-pointed star that the ignorant Jenard once under his banner, fighting hard and fighting tirelessly.
How many his comrades-in-arms are there!
Twelve years ago, he wandered numbly on the war-torn land. In the cold, hunger, pain, and suffering, he saw killing, arson, rape, and robbery every day.
Until Gernard stupidly entered the city, and when he was dizzy with hunger, he walked ignorantly towards the conscription office.
Until I met the Duke, the humorous, confident, optimistic, and approachable Duke of Xinghu, and his Starlight Legion.
A 19-year-old, often bullied, stupid, and unable to survive, a peasant teenager, where he learned unity and cooperation for the first time, learned selfless sacrifice for the first time, and suffered Recognition and appreciation, for the first time being taught to read and literate, for the first time to raise a sword to shout for victory, for the first time to sing around the campfire, and for the first time to make up his mind to break the robes for his colleagues.
And, for the first time, he understood that there are things in the world that are more important than eating and living.
There, he felt more like a person than a wild beast that only cared about foraging.
The Duke's Star Legion, the Duke's guards, is his home, his destination, all of him, where he thought he would fight for his life in the future.
Until the tragedy of Sodara, until the shameful and hateful betrayal, until the despicable sneak attack, until the cowardly secret arrow.
Until the Duke lay peacefully among all his guards, amidst the remorseful and angry cry of the entire legion, he warned them to "take care of themselves", then laughed with tears, and died forever.
These are all of them, the fault of their guards, the sins of their guards.
If we found out earlier...if I reacted faster...the duke wouldn’t...our home wouldn’t...
So, when that group of noble soldiers insulted, interrogated, beaten, threatened him disdainfully, and asked Gernard to tell the identity of the group of cavalry that also belonged to the nine-pointed star.
Jenard felt that his unyielding, gritted teeth, perseverance, silence, and even bruises and dying--all atonement.
At least this way, it can make his heart feel better for twelve years of guilt, remorse, and self-blame, so that he can more or less repay some guilt and regret after twelve years of inactivity and insensitivity.
This is all for the former "home", for the duty of the Duke's personal guard that he always remembers even if he is no longer there.
"My master just wants to make certain things," the gray-haired old man asked him calmly outside the prison door:
"About the identity of the cavalry-nothing more. I swear by the honor of the master that he is not going to be against the cavalry."
Jenard gritted his teeth.
"Who will see your persistence? Similarly, no one will see your weakness. Just give us a little information-even if it's good, no one will know."
Jenard continued to grit his teeth.
"We know that you must know something-your soldiers say they don't have flags and emblems, so, are they someone you know? A former comrade in arms? A fateful relationship?"
Jenard still gritted his teeth.
The gray-haired old man sighed and left the dungeon.
Jenard loosened his teeth, panted, and slumped to the ground.
He got through it again.
But where he didn’t know, Ashford, the old butler of Kevin Deere’s family, came to the upper floor of the vinegrass manor and respectfully approached his young master’s house, the guardian duke of the South Bank, Jane Kevin Deere bowed:
"I have already asked, that group of cavalry are from the Canxing family."
Jane turned around from the **** window, his expression was playful:
"I thought he would never open his mouth?"
"There are things that can be asked without the other person's opening," Ashford said blankly: "Jenard was born in the Star Legion, and was even the Duke of Star Lake John Can Star, who is also the Star War God himself. The guard, after Sonia Sutherley disbanded the original Starlight Legion, as one of the people who did not want to go north to the Broken Dragon Fortress, retired and came to the Security Hall."
Jane's eyes rolled, thoughtful.
Ashford nodded slightly: "It can be seen that he is a good and tough soldier--if there is something in the cavalry that can keep him dead, it must be related to his service experience. "
"I speculate that he, who has rich military and combat experience, has seen through the origins of that group of cavalry without flags and no banners-out of the past in the Star Legion, the same origin of the same star, he insisted Keep secrets for those people."
Jane looked at his old housekeeper for several seconds.
Finally, he sighed:
"So, the only thing that fits the description should be the private soldiers of the Stars in Mindis Hall—and the new prince went back to Mindis Hall directly and openly after yesterday."
"The secret treasure of Mindis Hall is missing?"
Jane shook his head and chuckled:
"Hmph, I'm afraid the so-called secret treasure that disappeared in Mindis Hall before is the new prince! Nekra caught the kid and brought it to the vinegrass manor...so they simply broke into the door and secretly snatched people."
"You know, Ashford, we have held the fate of the kingdom in our hands twice, twice!" Jann raised his head and closed his eyes: "As a result, he escaped."
Ashford bowed his head indifferently and said nothing.
a long while.
"Heal the soldiers of the Star Legion." Zhan said coldly.
Ashford raised his eyes, puzzled.
"You know, that kid, I owe him once, anyway..." Jane clenched his fists and said with fire in his eyes: "And I don't want to hesitate when attacking him."
Jane turned around and left the **** manor without hesitation.
"Did you know, my lord."
Behind him, Ashford smiled mysteriously: "You are more and more like the old man."
Jane replied disdainfully without looking back:
"Then I was as stupid as him, and was tricked by relatives, unknowingly, cut my throat in my bedroom?"
Ashford shook his head slightly and sighed deeply.
He lowered his head and reported another thing:
"My lord, the news from the Emerald City...Miss Hille, she..."
Ashford looked at the face of his master, and stopped talking.
Jane's footsteps paused.
The young Duke took a breath, as if preparing something.
"Let's talk," he said in a cold tone: "My twelve-year-old, cute and stupid sister, what else has done inexplicable."
After hearing the words, Ashford bowed deeply, carefully and authentically:
"Miss Hille, five days ago, under the **** of Lord Cassian, went to the Principality of Sera-no one of her dared to stop her."
Jen turned his head and looked at Ashford.
"Sera? After the assassination, the Principality of Sera was torn apart?" He showed a puzzled look and frowned, "Isn't there a plague in that place recently?"
"The external saying is that she is going to help the people suffering from the plague," Ashford bowed softly: "But I suspect that she found information about that organization."
That organization?
Zhan En's face suddenly became cold as frost, and his face twitched, as if thinking of something unbearable.
until he burst out suddenly.
"Isn't it enough that she killed her parents!"
The voice of the Duke was full of anger and hatred: "What kind of disaster do you want to bring back to Kevin Deere, to this home!"
Ashford did not speak.
More than ten seconds later, Jane exhaled fiercely.
He waved his sleeves after all.
"Add more staff to ensure her safety." Jen closed his eyes tightly, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely: "Also... to ensure that her identity is secret, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not leaking... "
His voice trembled, using three absolutes.
Ashford nodded slightly, understandingly, the first Duke stepped out of the manor hall.
After the housekeeper's figure was gone, Jane was shaking, holding on to the pillar.
咚!
He punched hard and hit the post!
Then, the Duke of Iris leaned his head deeply on the pillar.
He exhaled a bit of air in pain.
's previous negligence and failure...No second time allowed...
I can’t fall down.
can't fall down!
I must be a king.
must.
Only to become the Supreme King...
only has the power to control the entire star kingdom...
Otherwise... Hille...
In this world, who else can protect you?
Protect... you like that?
———————————
Mindis Hall, the cellar.
"Congratulations, my ally, His Royal Highness Thales, the second prince." The blood family over 400 years old, the refugee from the kingdom of night, the silver-haired and red-eyed Loli Serena, looked complicatedly Thales.
"The cheers of the Stars Plaza, I can hear you clearly here."
"This is an exaggeration... the distance from Xingju Square to here..." Thales narrowed his eyes helplessly.
"In short, our covenant is one step closer."
Serena did not blush (Thyls doubts: does she really have the attribute of "blushing"?) interrupted him, and then said: "Now, when I can be crowned king, I will help I have regained the throne-rest assured, I will do my best to help Li."
Under the unextinguished light, Thales' face turned pale.
Do your best to help me?
It’s right—as if I’m not the only heir to the kingdom, and if you don’t help me, I won’t be able to inherit the kingdom.
On the contrary-her competitor and opponent, the "weeper" in the kingdom of night, the queen of night...
Thales just feels his head is big.
He took a sip from the bottom of his heart: the old witch who is calculating and taking advantage.
I am crowned, you reset?
Old witch, can we change the order?
But he still didn’t complain.
"That way, you should have heard of it," Thales gave a dry cough: "I'm going to Exeter in the near future."
Selena nodded, showing a mysterious smile~IndoMTL.com~This short-born kid.
Do you think I don’t know what you are doing?
"Before I leave, I will entrust you to... uh, father..." Thales carefully considered his words.
"Walk with me."
Thiel continued to nod his head, thinking about the next wording: "...You are at least a country's politician, he will definitely not neglect..."
"I just walk inside."
Thales' voice gradually became quieter.
"What?" He frowned, puzzled.
"I said, I want to be with Li," Serena smiled. This looks like six or seven years old (Hey, wasn't it five or six when I saw it last time? Is it a little older?—— The red pupil girl of Thales opened her mouth open and said: "We still have a monthly blood supply clause, don't we?"
Thales sighed in his heart.
"And, of course, allies should not be too far apart-I also need to ensure the safety of the inside."
The traverser rolled his eyes again.
Stay with me-to ensure your own safety!
His most worried thing happened.
But at this moment, Gilbert’s voice came from outside the door:
"Good day, three of you...Mr. Corleone, Mr. Corleone, and Miss Corleone... I really did my duty-Jora, relax."
Immediately, the door outside the cellar was knocked.
"Sorry to interrupt your discussion, Your Highness Thales, Your Highness Corleone." Count Caso heard through the door:
