"It's very difficult. Don't think about it. This vote can't be done at the moment."

Hearing that Ren was asking about Ghoul Duke Marcus and Tucker, and seemed to be interested in taking action, the old goat quickly shook his head and warned seriously:

"You kid, don't go crazy. Many people want to kill the ghoul brothers, but it's basically impossible."

"Can't you lure the two of them out, just like you did that one?" Ren asked in a tentative tone, reaching out to pick up the glass full of wine on the table.

Leon shook his head and added seriously:

"This is impossible. Marcus has been staying in Pineapple Town and is guarded by many powerful demons. He is so stubborn that even after the gun demon became a saint, he has not been able to break through the blockade... Moreover, there have been several Dark Dukes recently. Arriving at Pineapple Town..."

He and the old goat killed Duke Marcus's wife, but it was also luck that time. Their target was not her at all at first, it was just an accident.

But even though his wife was dead, Duke Marcus still couldn't retreat. He just sent strong demons to hunt down the two of them.

Now unless a war breaks out and the situation becomes chaotic, we will have to take action under the noses of Prince Milo, the werewolf Archduke Luke, and the other Dark Archduke who have recently arrived... You can imagine how difficult it is.

"Alas~"

Ren shook his head and sighed. He knew that the rewards from the garbage system were not easy to get.

This matter had to be considered in the long term, at least in the short term he and King Da Mao would not have the chance to complete the optional tasks assigned by the system.

Fortunately, the system's optional task time limit is one year.

The war will definitely break out at that time, and you can try to draw chestnuts from the fire...

"Of course, if you have Gonzalez's strength, you can try to break into Pineapple Town." The old goat raised his eyebrows and cut the medium-rare steak with a knife and fork.

Ren rolled his eyes when he heard this, picked up the wine bottle on the table, and poured himself a glass of mellow Crimson Moon.

Gonzalez, the leader of the Church of Light and the Knights Templar, is considered a strong one among the saints. Five years ago, he almost nailed the Prince of Darkness Milo, who had just emerged from his slumber and was a little underestimated, with a single shot.

However, he does not have such strength as the Prince of Darkness, and must improve himself as soon as possible.

With the current fighting power of him and King Da Mao, it is still not enough to take the heads of the key figures on the chaotic and dangerous battlefield—the ghoul Marcus brothers.

After talking about business, the three started to brag.

Basically, they are talking about which woman is more beautiful, sexy, with big breasts and perky butt. In this regard, Ren and Leon can't compare to the old goat.

Leon has only had two girlfriends. Although he comes from a noble family, he is relatively self-disciplined and not the kind of playboy who only knows how to eat and wait for death.

As for Renn, he has just left the rookie stage and can talk a lot, but he is still far from being an experienced player.

"You two boys, remember, physics knowledge is very important. In addition to time endurance, men must understand rhythm and speed...initial speed, acceleration, uniform speed, displacement, terminal speed... If you continue to do this, the goddess will fall for it... …”

The old goat was drunk, and the smile on his face gradually became abnormal, and he began to teach Ren and Leon the course "Physics Knowledge·The Speed ​​of Men".

It is really profound, long-standing, and philosophical... Rookie Leon and newbie Ren were fascinated by it.

The two of them worshiped and marveled at Master Nicholas' profound theoretical knowledge and rich practical experience.

Leon: Boss, please take my knee off.

Renn: If you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you won’t be afraid of the end of the world.

Seeing the two juniors looking up in the eyes, the old goat smiled proudly and began to show off his experience in picking up girls.

He said that he had never been defeated in any battle in his life, and always took the lead in every battle. He often led hundreds of millions of elite soldiers to advance in a whirlwind, and was invincible with his 18-way crazy magic stick skills. , wailing and bloody battlefield...

He also boasted that he almost hooked up with a certain princess of Ron Duchy and killed her.

How enviable...ah, what a shameful and hateful old bastard.

Ren and Leon both had disdainful expressions on their faces, but their hearts gradually became separated.

While chatting, for some reason the topic of who was the most beautiful woman in the world came up, and the three of them immediately started arguing.

The old goat, smelling of alcohol all over his body, put down his wine glass, with a rare trace of obsession on his face, and murmured:

"If I want to say who is the most beautiful in the Kingdom of Pharaoh, I think it is Lucy Wilson. She is as beautiful as an elf in a flower. She is also a female saint with the profession of [Singer]. Except for being a little shorter in height, her figure and appearance are almost the same. There are no disadvantages.

It's a pity that such a beauty has found a home early, but I don't know why His Majesty Charles didn't let her become the queen..."

Regarding the old goat's comment, Leon glared at him and said in an obviously dissatisfied tone:

"Aunt Lucy is very beautiful, but she is over 160 years old, and she is not of the same generation as you at all!"

His grandfather, "Dawn Horn" Wade, was a veteran saint in Falorland. He was older than Lucy, the "Queen of Sleep Talk", and the two were familiar with each other.

Leon called Lucy Wilson aunt, and was naturally dissatisfied with the old goat's profane tone.

"I was born too late. The goddess has already been fucked by that scumbag, His Majesty Charlie. Otherwise, I might still have a chance. It's a pity..." The old goat sighed.

He slapped his thigh, as if he wanted to be jealous of His Majesty Charles IV, who was both reviled and reviled a hundred years ago.

In fact, for high-level extraordinary people, age is really not a problem.

Although they are not as capable of sleeping and have a long lifespan as demons, the lifespan of a human master-level transcendent is about 180 years old, the lifespan of a strong man at the temple level is more than 200 years old, and the fifth-level saint can live about 500 years old, provided that he has not received any training. Some serious injuries that are difficult to heal...

Renn chuckled and cut the chicken legs with a knife and fork:

"Old Sepi, I support you in hooking up with Lucy Wilson. When your body is abandoned in the wilderness, I will collect it for you."

The old goat rolled his eyes and crossed his legs with a groan.

He really didn't have the guts to flirt with Lucy. He just thought about it in his heart. Which female saint is a fuel-efficient lamp?

What's more, Lucy almost became the queen of Falorland, but was finally eliminated unexpectedly. There were so many struggles and inside stories involved that ordinary people would not dare to get involved...

"In this generation, Princess Sophie is the most beautiful, the black rose in the wind, the goddess of ice and snow, noble and cool, making people sink..." Leon said in an obsessed tone.

It was obvious that he was really fascinated by Princess Sophie.

The old goat and Renn looked at each other, shook their heads at the same time, and looked at Leon with a trace of sympathy.

After a while, the old goat chuckled and said: "Princess Sophie is worth 99 points. I gave her one less point because she was afraid of being proud."

"95 points."

Ren said calmly that Kesha scored 96 points in his mind and was the most beautiful woman. No matter how beautiful Sophie was, it had nothing to do with him. Of course, she could not surpass Valkyrie.

Neither of them mentioned dating Princess Sophie, even though Her Royal Highness the Princess is still single.

Ren didn't dare. Give him ten courages, and he wouldn't dare to date Kesha's best friend. That's because the old lady thinks she has a long life.

The old goat thought it was impossible. No matter how beautiful a Lily was, it would be difficult to fall in love with a woman who liked women. That's why he and Ren sympathized with Leon and thought he was wishful thinking.

About an hour later, the cups and plates were in a mess, the three of them were all full of wine and food, and casually lay on the chairs to sober up.

Renn ordered another dinner to take away. This was a late-night snack for Artoria. Kesha was not at home today, so no one prepared dinner for her.

Dai Mao Wang is a foodie, but she can't cook.

It was still early at this time, and the navy blue night had just fallen.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the gentle evening breeze flowed in from the half-covered window sill. On the ceiling, the light spots reflected by the glass chandelier swayed slightly with the breeze.

The three of them sat for a while and then went to the center of the dance floor on the second floor.

With Master Leon paying the bills, no play is in vain. Ren and the old goat are ready to carry out the decadent capitalist life to the end.

On the spacious dance floor, colorful lights flickered, and a trumpet-shaped gramophone played soothing classical music.

This flat disc phonograph, which looks quite primitive, stores sound in arc-shaped grooves that are acoustically carved into the plane of the record (disc).

The vinyl turntable is placed on a turntable and rotates under the stylus.

Renn was not surprised by this. The technology tree of this world was very crooked.

This is a technology tree based on the Force and steam technology. Inventions such as phonographs, telephones, and cameras are relatively primitive. Although steam locomotives and steam motorcycles have excellent performance, they are not popular.

However, firearms, especially Force firearms, are far more powerful than modern firearms on Earth. Some high-quality Force weapons are extremely lethal.

Before Renne and the others could find a female partner for a noble ballroom dance to soothe their stomachs, a middle-aged man wearing a gray windbreaker and black and white uniform hurriedly ran upstairs.

This is a 7th inning deacon.

He looked obviously panicked, his face turned red, and he shouted to everyone in a very excited tone:

"It's not good! The latest news is that in three days, Gonzales... is coming!"

This news is unusual.

Most of the people staying at the Wave Hotel were nobles and extraordinary people, so the expressions of many people on the dance floor changed.

The huge dance floor fell silent for an instant, with only the melodious music from the gramophone reverberating. Everyone stopped dancing with different expressions.

Ren, the old goat and Leon looked at each other.

The three people had different reactions. Leon clenched his fists subconsciously, with a look of worry on his face. The old goat frowned slightly and reached out to touch his chin, thinking about what the people of the Light Church were planning.

Renn showed a smile of unknown meaning.

Someone came up to ask the deacon if the information was accurate, and received an affirmative answer.

The 9th leader of the Knights Templar, Gonzalez, along with the top genius of the young generation of the Church of Light, the "Holy White Sword" Michel, have set out from the city of Frenje in the St. Joan Empire to come to France. Within Roland.

The two of them disclosed their itinerary and made no secret of their destination, Merova City.

After confirming that the news was correct, everyone present exploded.

"The leader of the Knights Templar is coming to Merova City? What does the Church of Light want to do?"

"You must have not obtained the permission of the 7th Bureau in advance. Saints must be notified at least one month in advance before entering the country!" someone said in surprise.

"What do those gangsters want to do by openly tearing up the agreement?" Someone asked with a cold look.

"You are so brave. Gonzalez comes here at this time and enters the country illegally. Isn't this considered a provocation?!"

"Are you here to help? Or do you want to take advantage of the situation and add insult to injury?"

The many extraordinary beings present began to discuss, worried, vigilant, suspicious, murderous... most of them had ugly faces, and their voices were full of hostility.

If you are a saint from another country, you can enter and exit Falorland at will, without any restrictions.

But the saints of the Saint Joan Empire were different.

About a hundred years ago.

A fierce conflict broke out between the Kingdom of Falorland and the Empire of St. Joan, and the two countries fought against each other in the Gujue River Basin in the west.

The Fire Dragon Knights and the Templar Knights faced off across a large river, and almost had a misfire, but in the end due to various reasons, a decisive battle did not break out.

It is unknown how many games there are and how many forces are involved.

Afterwards, Faloran's pride was ranked high in the entire continent, and the 800-year-old Fire Dragon Knights were disbanded.

This was almost the most sensational event of that period and had a far-reaching impact.

Obviously, the Kingdom of Falorland lost this contest.

However, according to the agreement of that year, the troops of the St. Joan Empire were not allowed to take the initiative to step into the territory of Falorland, and the saints of the empire were prohibited from entering. Application was required for entry, otherwise it would be regarded as breaking the agreement.

"What do you think Gonzalez wanted to do when he tore up the agreement a hundred years ago?" The old goat's expression was slightly solemn.

At this juncture, this matter is too sensitive.

"I don't know. I don't think it's to add insult to injury, but it does seem like a provocation." Renn shook his head.

Not only the confrontation a hundred years ago, but the grudges between the Faroran Kingdom and the St. Joan Empire can be traced back to thousands of years ago.

The relationship here is too complicated.

In the early Fifth Age, William the Conqueror erected a monument to establish the country, and even tamed a rare fire dragon in the world, creating the Kingdom of Falorland in this land of four wars.

This land is full of outstanding people and borders the St. Joan Empire.

Then a scholar from a certain kingdom created the first extraordinary profession that was completely affiliated with the dark side─[Retribution Knight].

The dark side force mastered by [Retribution Knight] is almost completely opposite to the holy power of [Paladin] profession. One can imagine the reaction of the Church of Light at that time.

Prior to this, the church declared that humans are the people of God, and that humans are absolutely unable to control the power of pure darkness like demons. As a result, the Punishment Knight came out...

Issues of faith, land borders, conflicts of interest...the contradiction between the two is almost irreconcilable.

More than 800 years ago, William the Conqueror and Francis IV, the Pope of Light at that time, fought in the Gujue River Basin...

The absolute pinnacle showdown. After one battle, mountains collapsed and rivers changed their courses... The specific outcome is unknown.

Afterwards, the Faloran Kingdom still existed, and the St. Joan Empire chose to withdraw.

The profession of [Punishing Knight] is only spread within the Kingdom of Falorland and is an official trump card. For example, the Chief Superintendent of the 7th Bureau whom Ren met - "Dark Knight" Parr - is a Punisher.

Afterwards, William the Conqueror used the skin of the fire dragon that died of old age as material to form the Order of the Fire Dragon.

From then on, St. Joan has the Paladins, Falorland has the Punishment Knights, St. Joan has the Templars of Eternal Glory, Falorland has the invincible Fire Dragon Knights, the Empire has the inheritance of Louis, the Storm God of War, and the Kingdom also has conquests. William’s Demon Killing Technique...

The entanglement between the two has lasted for almost two eras, with countless ups and downs, and has lasted for thousands of years.

Three days later, it was the day when Gonzalez, the head of the Knights Templar of the Church of Light, arrived, and it was also the time when Karl, the director of the 7th Bureau of Farrowland and the "Purgatory Butcher", arrived.

What exactly that will be, no one knows.
