Chapter 353 The changed plot

The magic sword, Qiliniram.

This is one of the four swords held by a hero called the [Black Knight] among the thirteen heroes who ended the Demonic Rebellion 200 years ago.

Legend has it that the [Black Knight] is a hybrid of humans and demons. He carries four pitch-black swords, namely the demon sword Qiliniram that can release dark energy, the rotten sword Krokdabar that causes wounds that cannot be healed, and the light sword Klokdabar. They are the death sword Sphitz, which can kill just by a scratch, and the evil sword Humilis, which hides unknown special abilities.

These four dark swords have been scattered all over the world without knowing their whereabouts, and have gradually become legendary weapons, making countless people yearn for them, but they don't know whether they really exist.

However, the appearance of Laxu made this legend become a reality.

Because one of the four pitch-black swords, the magic sword Qiliniram that can release dark energy, is now in her hand.

That's right.

That huge transforming sword was one of the legendary black swords held by the Thirteen Heroes [Black Knight], the magic sword Qiliniram.

Laisi appeared with the sword, and together with the other members of [Blue Rose], came to Lige and Brian.

"Sorry, we didn't intend to eavesdrop on your conversation. We just happened to come out of the hotel and saw the two of you standing here and saying something like that, so we couldn't help but speak out. Please forgive me."

Laisi first saluted and apologized to Li Ge and Brian, and took the responsibility of everyone for the sudden interruption of the conversation between the two by Ge Gelan.

The other members of [Blue Rose] did not bow and apologize, but they also stood behind Laisi and cast their eyes at Li Ge and Brian, which revealed a lot of unique brilliance.

Especially Tia and Tina, after taking a look at Brian, they immediately turned their attention to Li Ge, staring at him as if they were examining something.

Under such circumstances, Evileye remained silent for the time being and did not make a sound, but Gaglan stood up and grinned at Brian.

"It seems that you have really regained your confidence as a warrior, Brian Anglaus, I am going to be very impressed with you."

After hearing these words, Brian suppressed the innocent expression on his face and shrugged his shoulders.

"I was just woken up by Lord Brighaut. It's quite embarrassing to say it." Brian observed the people in [Blue Rose] for a while, and then smiled and said: "I see, these are the only two teams in the kingdom in the past. The real formation of the adamantine-class adventurer team [Blue Rose], it’s amazing, even I can feel that you are not as powerful as me, and two of them are even above me. In the past, I was still It’s really like sitting in a well and looking at the sky.”

In the past, although Brian had never heard of the name [Blue Rose], he had never taken them to heart.

He stubbornly believed that in the kingdom, the only person who could be his opponent was Gazef, and only Gazef could defeat him. The rest were just idlers, even the highest-level adamantium-level adventurers. He They can all win.

He would not lose to a human being other than Gazef Stronov. This was what the past Brian thought.

But now, he understood that that kind of thinking was just arrogance.

After facing each other like this, Brian immediately realized that whether it was Gaglan, Tia or Tina, they were all as strong as him, and Laxi gave him a sense of danger, making him feel There is a high probability that he will lose to this priest warrior who has truly entered the realm of heroes.

As for Evileye, Brian found it strange when he saw her for the first time yesterday. This little girl didn't seem to be very dangerous, but she was able to stimulate his keen intuition, making him vaguely aware of the situation. Understand that you cannot simply ignore the existence of this person.

That's why Brian said this.

"You're not bad either, Mr. Anglaus." Lassie smiled at Brian and said, "The genius swordsman who can fight with the Kingdom's warrior captain on a par with him is a name that I have admired for a long time. I heard that you have had some bad experiences recently, and I originally thought it would take some time to recover, but now it seems that my worries were unnecessary."

"It's all thanks to Lord Brighaut." Brian said without any pride: "Don't call me a genius swordsman. Just one setback almost made me lose my spirit. I have no shame in calling myself a genius swordsman like this. What a genius he is, it is already a matter of joy to be able to continue to be regarded as a swordsman."

"Compared to people like me, Sir Brighaut is a real genius, a real swordsman, and a real strong man. In front of you, you should not tell me about my embarrassing deeds."

Brian's words made everyone look at Li Ge.

"Of course we have heard about the power of Your Excellency Brighaut." Lax stretched out a hand towards Li Ge, looked directly at Li Ge, and said: "I have admired your name for a long time, Your Excellency Brighaut, I am [ The leader of Blue Rose, Lax Albein Tiel Aindra.”

As soon as Laisi's voice fell, Tia and Tina behind her followed suit.

"I'm Tia."

"I'm Tina."

"I've wanted to see it for a long time. It's rumored that one person can match the strength of a team of adamantine-level adventurers, Rigo Brighaut."

"You are so young. He looks younger than our devil leader. It's hard to imagine that this little devil can be so strong."

The twins introduced themselves one after another, and said some rude words to Li Ge mixed with some personal thoughts, which made Laisi smile bitterly.

Li Ge didn't mind, he just glanced at Laxi's hand stretched out in front of him, stretched out his hand, and shook her hand.

Although she is a figure who has entered the realm of heroes at the age of only 19, Lahusi's hands are very soft and delicate. They are not like the hands of an adventurer at all, but more like the hands of a rich lady who pays great attention to maintenance in daily life. tiny hand.

However, Li Ge did not feel it carefully, but simply let go after holding it lightly.

"I am the one who has been admiring you for a long time, everyone in Qiangwei." Li Ge said calmly: "After careful calculation, you are still my seniors. You don't need to listen to Brian Anglaus's boasts, just treat me normally."

"That's fine." Lacus gave Li Ge a deep look and did not reject his statement. Instead, she smiled and said: "I actually don't like those false gifts very much. Since Mr. Brighaut said so, we I won’t break up anymore and ask for your advice again.”

"It should have been like this a long time ago." Gegelan took advantage of every opportunity and said, "I'm most annoyed by those rigid etiquettes. Anyway, the people here are basically adventurers. Can't we just get to know each other the way adventurers do?"

"...Adventurers are sometimes the profession that requires the most etiquette." Evileye glanced at Gegelan and whispered: "You just find it troublesome, you muscle-brained girl without a brain."

Everyone couldn't help laughing immediately.

"Are you preparing to go on a mission?" Brian saw that everyone in [Blue Rose] was fully armed, and said with some concern: "With such complete equipment, it seems to be a difficult mission."

Li Ge also recalled the plot of the original work.

He vaguely remembered that at this point in time, the reason why Laisi and others appeared in the royal capital of Yestije was entirely because they accepted the commission from the Golden Princess and planned to eradicate the criminal group living underground in the kingdom— ——[Eight Fingers].

[Eight Fingers] is a huge organization that occupies the kingdom's underground world. The organization operates many illegal activities, including but not limited to slave trading, assassination, smuggling, theft, drug dealing, bodyguards, finance, gambling, etc. It is an endless An out-and-out criminal group.

Not only do they have close relationships with the nobles in the kingdom, but they also cooperate privately with many nobles. They are also the leaders of all illegal organizations in the kingdom. They can be said to be the representatives of darkness in the kingdom.

Such a behemoth that occupies the entire underground world of the kingdom even has powerful thugs called [Six Arms] inside. Everyone inside has a strength no less than that of a steel-level adventurer, making many people unable to touch them even if they want to. You have to weigh your abilities.

In the original work, [Blue Rose] was entrusted by the third princess of the kingdom, and was planning to take action against [Eight Fingers] in the near future to attack this huge criminal organization. It would be best to catch them all and completely cut off the darkness in this kingdom. .

"Now that [Blue Rose] is fully armed and dispatched, is it possible that they are preparing to take action against [Eight Fingers]?"

This is actually quite dangerous behavior.

This is because adventurers generally accept commissions through guilds, and are usually not allowed to accept commissions directly from clients. For Laisi and others to directly skip the guild and accept the commission from the Golden Princess, this is undoubtedly a violation of the rules. , if serious, you may be punished by the guild, or even expelled from the guild.

Not to mention, the Adventurer's Guild has unwritten rules that do not allow adventurers to intervene in national struggles at will. Laxus and others help the royal family eradicate underground organizations. This is an action involving national policy, and it is also a violation of regulations.

If [Blue Rose] was not one of the only two adamantite-level adventurer teams in the kingdom in the past, and every member of the team was a very precious and rare adamantite-level adventurer, the guild would never treat this Just sit back and watch.

But because Laisi is a noble of the kingdom and has feelings for this country, and she has an old relationship with the third princess of the kingdom, so in the original work, she still accepted this commission.

This is probably the case now, right?

"If that's the case, Nazarick should be about to get involved, right?"

Li Ge thought so.

However, what Lapis said next surprised Li Ge.

"We are indeed preparing to embark on a mission, and it is still a very difficult mission." Lachesi and the members of the team looked at each other, and then said with a serious face: "You may not know that in recent times, there have been very scary things. Monsters have infiltrated the royal capital."

When Lax said these words, Evileye seemed to cooperate and made some movements under her robe.

Suddenly, the surrounding sounds began to drift away, and everyone seemed to be surrounded by a film, completely isolating the nearby noise from the movement in this area.

"This is……?"

Brian noticed this change and reacted keenly.

"Don't be nervous, it's just a magic item activated." Evileye said: "It's okay for people like you to hear the following conversation. If others hear it, it may cause a lot of confusion."

"That's right." Gegelan also nodded solemnly and said: "If you know, you can still take some precautions. If the weak guy knows about this, I'm afraid it will only cause trouble, right?"

The girls of [Blue Rose] all adopted a cautious attitude, making both Li Ge and Brian feel that this matter was not trivial.

"A terrible monster has sneaked into the capital... right?"

Brian lowered his voice subconsciously.

Li Ge frowned and looked at Laxu.

Laxus explained the cause and effect in front of the two of them.

"This is information that is currently only known to the royal family and nobles. It has not been made public yet in order not to cause panic among the people." Laxi said: "We also learned about this from the mouth of the third princess."

"It is said that about a week ago, a very powerful monster made a big fuss abroad and attacked a human city in Theocratic State. After causing a huge commotion there, a special force was sent by the priest of Theocratic State. He was forced to retreat and fled into the kingdom."

"Someone among the kingdom's top officials provided reliable information, saying that the monster came all the way to the royal capital and was lurking in the darkness of the city."

"The other party seems to have a lot of intelligence. He can summon and drive lower-level monsters and undead. After arriving in the royal capital, he occupied the underground world and defeated and occupied the [Eight Fingers] that had been entrenched underground in the kingdom for a long time. , turned all the principals of [Eight Fingers] into servants under his control, and became the king of the kingdom’s underground world.”

"Both the royal family and the nobles paid great attention to this matter. They sent out troops several times to conduct reconnaissance or crusade. As a result, all the people sent out never returned, and only very limited information was brought back."

Lachesi said this with a calm face.

"We have received a secret commission from the third princess of the kingdom. We are going to spy on the [Eight Fingers] base controlled by that monster, collect as much information as possible, and if possible, defeat the monster."

"Although adventurers are strictly prohibited from intervening in national affairs, it is a monster that secretly enslaved [Eight Fingers] this time. As adventurers who specialize in fighting monsters, we have an obligation to accept this commission."

"So, we are going to go to the [Eight Fingers] base mentioned in the intelligence sent back by the sacrificed Kingdom troops to meet the monster for a while."

Such words made Brian frown deeply and fell silent.

Li Ge even lowered his eyes, with only one thought in his mind.

"It seems that the plot of the original work has changed."
