A butcher knife is used to kill a chicken! Whether Pavel's family is a chicken is debatable, but the brain monster Lange created by Robo can indeed be regarded as a butcher knife. As we all know, the butcher uses cleverness rather than brute force to butcher a cow, and follows the trend rather than hard attack. The same is true for brain monsters. Lange follows the routine of biochemical viruses, air transmission, and drinking water transmission. Robo did not give it any time limit, and there were only big goals in terms of tasks, so Lange was very steady, focusing on a pie in the sky and the delivery of probiotic effects, waiting for the virus to completely "settle down", and then evolving and rebelling. So Pavel's node nest in the area, with Pelagia's embarrassed escape, quickly mobilized all and waited for it, but nothing came, and there was no movement for several days. Even Pelagia couldn't help but think, is it overthinking? The other party had no intention of chasing her little fish, so it escaped. In fact, the disaster had already come, but they were unaware of it, which meant that failure would only become more abrupt and complete as time went by. At the same time, Robo and Victor entered the territory of Jolani.
The caravan parted ways with the two since the Glory Castle. They had to escort the relatives of the Grand Duchess to Craiova, where the Red Castle of Jolani was located. Robo and Victor's first target was Montana. Montana was the birthplace of the Savoy family. The surname of the Grand Duke of Jolani was Savoy. Montana was to the Grand Duke of Jolani as Fengyang was to the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty. Montana was a small place, but it had always been treated favorably in terms of policies. Not only was there a road connection at the level of the Golden Avenue, but it also fully utilized the advantages of a small basin, like a smaller version of Sichuan, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and very independent. Just like the relationship between Viscount Leban and Count Karlovo, the legitimate heir of the Grand Duke of Jolani must be the Marquis of Montana before he took office. Allow him to open a government office, manage power, and operate the territory to familiarize himself with the ways of the lord. According to the news reported by Robo through the Killing Team under the Bounty Guild, which he conquered, their uncle Hillman is now in Montana. From the chief extraordinary advisor of the Grand Duke, a national master-like existence, to the staff of the Marquis of Montana (possibly), there must be a story here. Unfortunately, with the level of the Killing Team, such court secrets cannot be found out. High-level nobles will not interact directly with bounty hunters, who have the attributes of money hyenas. Accordingly, it is difficult to verify the secrets of top dignitaries and the fidelity is not high. For Robo, this is nothing. As long as he knows where the person is, he can go to the door to ask. The main reason is that Victor wants to ask for an explanation. After all, Vaning appeared and cooperated with Hillman, which was once rumored to be true. Even Victor, who rarely left Tulun Valley in the past year, heard the news. If I don't figure it out, I can't explain it to my fellow apprentices and myself. Because of the Royal City incident, not to mention how many risks and hardships those who survived in the end had to endure, there were many who died, including their relatives. With this unforgettable memory in my heart, I can't tolerate more betrayals and betrayals, even if it's my teacher. Or, it's because he's my teacher that he's particularly hateful. There's nothing much to say about the territory of Jolani. Since the Grand Duke's layout has the spare power to reach the Golden Avenue outside the country, the interior is naturally well tidied. Of course, the settlements should be shrunk. After all, the past agricultural planting and breeding models are unsustainable, and monsters are easy to breed everywhere. Continuing to live in scattered places is more beneficial than harmful to both the rulers and the ruled.
The soundness of the post system reflects the ruling power of the Jolani dignitaries. The patrol teams and post on the Golden Avenue are just a replica and enhanced version of similar products in the territory. Victor and Rob still walked slowly, traveling from dawn to dusk and sleeping at night, heading to Montana one stop at a time. This behavior was caused by Victor's complex psychology. Similar to being afraid of being home, Victor was unwilling to face the disgusting thing of being betrayed by his teacher, but he had to get an answer to make a summary of the past. Then he could determine which direction to look forward to. Therefore, the two walked slowly all the way, believing that with Hillman's status, connections and intelligence acquisition ability, he would be able to know the existence and dynamics of the two before the two arrived. So there was enough time to think and make a choice. Hillman's feedback was a little earlier than the two expected. The previous stop of Montana, Eagle Cliff Castle, the two arrived near dusk like the travel pattern of these days. As soon as they entered the gate, someone came up to introduce himself and said that he was Hillman's disciple, named Rom. In the memory of the native Rob, there was no relevant information about Rom, because he was a junior brother and entered relatively late. Victor knew this person. However, we didn't interact that often in the past, and this person had changed so much that I didn't recognize him for a while. It was only after he introduced himself that I looked at him carefully and it matched my memory. "Master Hillman has prepared a dinner, and the temporary accommodation has been arranged. I will be responsible for guiding the two of you to bathe and change clothes..." Victor glanced at Robo, and Robo responded with a body language that said you are the boss, so Victor decided to follow the arrangement. In fact, this reception was already suspicious. There was nothing wrong with Hillman's disciples taking over the front station, but it was strange that Hillman himself welcomed the two of them at Eagle Cliff Castle instead of Montana. It felt like they were not allowed to enter the main gate, and they were just meeting at the tea stall outside the main gate. Victor was calm and optimistic, and he considered others. What if they had something to hide? The elders had come out to greet them personally, and the two younger generations were not suitable for the gifts, so they should be more tolerant. As a result, when they were bathing, Rob said, "There is something wrong with this bath soup. The smell of the fragrance covers the smell of the medicine." Victor was completely unable to detect it, but he believed in Rob's judgment and asked, "What medicine?" "I can't remember the name, but the medicine is detectable. It is non-toxic and harmless, and it can even relieve muscle fatigue. But if you encounter another type of medicine, relieving fatigue will become a paralysis function, which will make people sore and weak." Victor looked ugly, and after a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Is there a way to relieve it secretly?" "Of course." "Okay, let's see what will happen next!" What will happen, it is completely imaginable, but Victor obviously has not given up, and is still planning to give the other party one last chance. So more than half an hour later, when night fell completely, Rob and Victor, who were refreshed and dressed appropriately, came to a large house in Eagle Cliff Castle. It was indeed carefully prepared, with bright lights, exquisite utensils, and even waiters, as well as the food served and the performances to entertain, all of which were the same as the small banquets and salons that the lords often held before the Spirit Tide Mist. However, it seemed too deliberate and unfamiliar to use it at this moment. "I heard some rumors that Rob showed amazing strength on the way to the east. Is it true?" Hillman asked casually, and his eyes moved from Victor to Rob, obviously hoping that Rob would answer in person. "One of the differences between people is the concern and perspective of looking at problems caused by status, quality, and experience. Therefore, word of mouth is inevitably distorted, but to be frank, it is worthy of such a hospitality, if you are making friends or even recruiting for strength." "Well, it sounds good. So, are you interested in working under me?"
"It depends on the past events. Can you get a satisfactory answer?" "What is satisfactory?" "Probably the truth. At least neither me nor Victor want to be false in exchange for our sincerity." Victor also echoed from the side: "Master, we came here this time to seek the truth." Hillman waved his hand, and the dancers, musicians, and waiters who came to cheer all retreated. The big house suddenly became deserted, and the atmosphere was even a little awkward. Hillman looked at the two with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice: "The truth is sometimes more hurtful." Victor replied: "We pursue power, isn't it to gain clarity and truth!?" Hillman snorted and said: "I thought the pursuit of power was for a good life." Robo continued: "A good life is also for happiness. Sometimes a simple and poor life can make people feel happy, and sometimes, fine clothes and delicious food can make people very unhappy. And now, the truth has become the reason for happiness or unhappiness." "Okay, then I will be the villain." Hillman sat up straight. Victor and Rob also put down their knives and forks, wiped their mouths with napkins, and looked at Hillman. "The heavenly man has come, do you know?" Victor shook his head. So Hillman briefly explained this concept and mentioned the loss of the origin of the world, which led to the ancient secret that the extraordinary in this world completely became strangers. Victor's three views were seriously affected. Robo was not surprised. After all, he had long noticed the anomalies in this world, such as the disappearance of gods, ancient organizations, etc., and with a grand perspective, even if he had to guess, he could guess the possibility that thousands of people would commit sins and future generations would bear the blame. After all, the existence of the extraordinary enables the extraordinary to have the power to move mountains and fill the sea, and the ability to do things is no worse than the modern people on Earth who have mastered technology and are numerous. However, selfish desires are rampant and indulgence is the trend, so it is normal that the established fact that the predecessors committed sins and the future generations suffered disasters. What he didn't expect was that in this universe, the main material plane was planetized, and there was more than one, which then formed the pattern of the small heavens. And the world he was in was a resource star that was almost squeezed dry and broken. But this difference was not enough to shock his cognition and affect his three views. It can only be said that there is nothing new under the sun, and the old wine in the old bottle has not left the rut. With this foreshadowing, Hillman talked about the arrival of the celestial being and the ascension ticket. It's fine if they don't know that there is a colorful world outside. If they know, how can those successful people who think they are amazingly talented be willing to be bound by this small, poor world for the rest of their lives? Organizations like Iron Wolf don't have ancestors like Wai Ruifeimus. If they want to get a ticket to ascend, they have to work hard to get it. This also involves the important artifact that Videla, the project director of the Blood Moon Cult, once wanted to get - the cradle of life. The cradle of life is said to be a magical instrument made by the nobles among the ancients for the growth of their offspring. At that time, the origin of this world had not yet been extracted, the extraordinary world was booming, and all things were prosperous, so many things that were too luxurious in the eyes of modern extraordinary people were born. The cradle of life is one of them. The arrival of the celestial being, to put it bluntly, is the reincarnation of the big boss. Specifically, giving birth is a hurdle, and raising is also a hurdle.
Seizing the cradle of life is actually seizing the qualification of the foster mother and wet nurse, hoping to serve the reincarnated boss comfortably, and then ascend to heaven with his family in the future. That's roughly what it is. But the specific operation is very complicated. As the saying goes, if you have no desire, you will be strong. Otherwise, you will compromise in various ways, and even have no bottom line. For this cradle of life, including Vanin, they began to show their bottom line. Because of the extraordinary ceiling of this world, Vanin wasted too long despite his amazing talent. If everyone had the fate of flying high and finally landing, it would be fine. But there are people who really break through the shackles and go to the upper heaven, which is envy and jealousy. Not only Vanin has such an idea, but Clement VI is the same. He is too lazy to continue to be a low-level king. He wants to see the scenery at a higher level, and for this he is willing to sacrifice the legal basis for the existence of the kingship. And Victor and others are the pawns in the fight for key objects. To prevent leaks, of course, this is a good way to put it. To put it bluntly, before the fate is even started, they are already making big promises about who they will take with them when they ascend to heaven. Isn't this creating contradictions and laying mines? So they simply used the strategy commonly used by current rulers to control the people, ignorance is bliss. This strategy is actually not bad. If you don't know, you won't worry about it. As long as things develop in a positive direction, it will be a win-win situation where everyone gets what they need and everyone gets what they want. Wealth, companions, law, and land can all be given through the reward and punishment system within the organization! The risk is a bit high, but the return is not bad! In order to make the big animals work hard, the higher-ups are willing to give them high-quality feed, including soybean meal, apples, and eggs. But on the other hand, it's not just poverty that leads to failure. After all, the goal can be said to be an unreasonable wish beyond the ability. For this reason, they don't hesitate to borrow money and leverage. The loss is absolutely shocking, and the weak heart can't bear it. If you are going to die in hardship, how can you give your subordinates what they deserve? Then let the subordinates suffer! Compared with many entrepreneurs on Earth with the title of "boss", I dare not say that the ideas are exactly the same, but they are roughly the same. That's the thing. Of course, when it comes to details, it involves love, hatred, and the loss of fresh lives. Hillman instinctively doesn't want to stir up that emotion, which is easy to arouse the seven emotions and six desires, abandon rationality and decency in public, and go crazy regardless of anything. But even if he said it very dryly and rationally, Victor was still furious. There is no way. In his cognition, the relationship support within the master's sect is emotion. The person you love most will hurt you the most. He can't do it, with a light attitude, analyze and understand the betrayal, exploitation and other behaviors from the perspective of real interests, and accept them. Although he knows that this is life, and he has seen the fancy infiltration of interests into emotions in his daily life in the past. In his heart, he kept a piece of pure land where love was stronger than gold. In this piece of pure land, there was a place for his teachers and fellow apprentices. Therefore, the truth now made him feel an unbearable sense of blasphemy and betrayal. Seeing Victor's unstable breath and red eyes, Robo said: "Looking at the current situation, we have all lost. It is hard to say whether it is more painful for us who valued and lost our feelings, or for the teacher who gave up everything and used all means, but failed in the end." Hillman glanced at Robo and said faintly: "That's right. Those who value love will be cut off from love, and those who value profit will be deprived of their profit. The types of pain are different, but the depth is the same."
Victor stood up suddenly and saluted: "Sorry, please allow me to leave first." Hillman nodded and stretched out his right hand that was tucked in his sleeve. Anger is like suicide by passion. If it fails to break out in the first time, the longer it is delayed, the less likely it is to break out. Then he looked at Rob. Rob's expression was interesting, half-smiled, and his breath was filled with strange impatience, as if he had just watched a disgusting performance. Hillman thought to himself: "This is a person who doesn't talk about feelings, it's a bit difficult to get..." Back to the place where he stayed, Rob said directly: "Regarding revenge, sometimes, death is not the best choice, and it may even make him feel relieved. Making him suffer is considered a good revenge, and if you add a little drama, it will be more reliable. For example, the other party has been thinking about it, but he can't get it, but he abandons it as a consumable, and the enemy gets it, and then transfers it to others..." Victor turned his head suddenly, looked at Rob with bloodshot eyes, and said hoarsely: "I am in pain because a beautiful thing in my heart has been destroyed. I regret those who died for him. Compared with that, revenge is not important." Rob shrugged, "Okay Well, although it is a bad ending, it is not too bad. " Victor was amused: "Can it be worse?" "Of course, although the other party chose to be shameless, at least he told part of the truth, instead of making all kinds of excuses and frauds. And all the arrangements in advance were just precautions for fear that we would lose our temper. As long as you can admit it, from now on, the grudges will be eliminated. " Victor asked back: "What about you? Can you admit it?" "Yes, first of all, not only did I survive, but based on this, I can say that without the waves, there would be no fish. Without the bizarre encounter of escaping death, but following the steps, I would not have achieved what I have now. So with the division commander and even Tielang, it can be said that the grudges are offset. Of course, I owe you a big favor, so I am here. If you are angry, I will cut off their heads and give them to you, no matter if it is Hillman or Vaning. " Victor was relieved to hear this, but he felt a chill in his heart. So he decided to take it easy and not let Robo repay the favor too easily. It's not that he is afraid that it will be disadvantageous to him after the favor is wiped out, or that he will lose a good knife, but he feels a kind of willful and lawless character from Robo. There are few shackles that can restrain his heart. For the sake of the people of the world, it is better to keep some favors to tie him up and not let him become a disaster in the world...
