Gate of the Cross

Chapter 128 A teenager named Roddick

Nanali and Qiqi ran back behind Xinjie, but when the three came to the place where they first met Qiqi just now, there was no one there.

Xinjie looked around and shook his head, "She has been tricked. She has run away."

"You mean... the 'seven' just now is 'her'?" At this point, combined with the words just now, Nanali naturally understood what Xinjie meant.

"That's right." Xinjie nodded, "It's surprising."

"Hey, don't hit dumb fans in front of me, Ajie, tell me quickly what you are talking about?"

Seventy-seven was very unhappy to hear Xinjie and Nanali say things they couldn't understand.

"Okay. Someone just pretended to be you and cheated me and Nanali. Xinjie explained briefly.

Qiqi was very surprised when he heard Xinjie's words, "Pretend to be me?"

Xinjie nodded and continued to explain: "Yes, I guess she should have used transformation skills such as changing her appearance in a short time. It's really a good camouflage. It can't be seen from the appearance at all."

"What, how dare you pretend to be me! Well, Ajie, she didn't say anything strange to you with my appearance to damage my image, did she? Qiqi asked angrily.

Nanali looked at Qiqi speechlessly. Are you concerned about the wrong point? And she was very dissatisfied with her behavior of calling Xinjie Ajie, so she walked to Xinjie and asked:

"I've never heard of skills that can change appearance. Where did you hear about it?"

"Mentor Disol talked about it when he chatted with me before." Xinjie still replied in a short sentence.

"Well..." Nanali, who knew that Xinjie was used to, naturally didn't think it was strange, "... So what should we do now?"

Xinjie looked up at the sky, thought for a moment and said, "It's almost evening. I want to walk around the street to see if there is anything I can use. When it's almost evening, we can prepare separately.

"Well, I'll be with you." Nanali said immediately.

"I'll go too." Seventy-seven is not willing to lag behind.

The two women's eyes suddenly met again, and fierce electric sparks flashed in the air.

"Wow, this mouse is so cute!"

"Oh, this bow seems to be good."

"There, there is my favorite omelet rice!"

"What beautiful clothes!"

Originally, it was agreed to see something that could be used in battle, but when Nanali and Qiqiyi arrived on the street, they immediately left this purpose behind and turned their attention to those cute pets and clothes.

Xinjie doesn't care much. He just walks his own way behind and lets them see. Fortunately, although the two girls showed great enthusiasm for the goods here, they did not really buy them. After all, the things here are generally expensive, and some things are only good-looking and not of high actual value.

To Xinjie's surprise, he actually saw the clothes under the brand of "Bi Shiling Clothing Store" here, but he did not see Bi Shiling. He thought that she did not come here.

All the way, Xinjie didn't see what he like. Looking at the time, he was about to ask the two women to leave. His eyes turned and fell on a stall not far from him.

The stall was set up by a teenager about the same age as Xinjie, with fair skin, correct facial features, and a straight waistline kneeling cross-legged on the ground, which is in sharp contrast to the people around him.

But these are not Xinjie's attention. What attracts Xinjie's attention is a knife.

There is a knife in front of the teenager. The handle is not long, but it is carved into the shape of a dragon head, with a little sky blue embellishment in green. The blade reflects cold light in the sunlight, making people feel that this is a sharp weapon at a glance.

There are not many professions that use knives as weapons in this continent. Carefully, there are probably only swordsmen and soldiers. Because of the particularity of this profession, soldiers need to get used to the use of various weapons, such as knives, swords, guns, bows, and throwing weapons. It can be said that they are required to be familiar with almost all weapons except magic wands. As for the magic wand, it is a special weapon of the magic department. People with magic talent go to the magic department and will not become soldiers.

As for the swordsman, the weapon of this profession is the sword, but the gap between sword and knife on this continent is not as big as Xinjie's original world.

The sword can be chopped, cut, cut and stabbed, while the knife is mainly chopped and chopped because it has a blade on one side, but it is more powerful. Most people are more convenient and time-saving than thorns when fighting. The knife head is bent, and the wound caused when cutting and bringing it back is much deeper than the sword.

So in a practical sense, the use of knives is obviously more extensive than swords. However, it is not unreasonable for the sword to be called a gentleman in the weapon.

Although the status of swordsman has fallen on this continent, this profession has a glorious history. Liyong, the hero who defeated the military god Liberius in the battle of the hammer, was a swordsman, and the weapon he used was the only weapon that could defeat the god - the "destruction sword".

The glorious tradition of swordsman began 4,000 years ago. Compared with other weapons, the symbolic significance of the sword is actually greater than the use value, so it is also known as the weapon of the king, and the use requirements are much higher than knives. The skill of swordsmanship is much more complicated than swordsmanship, so the use of swordsmanship is called swordsmanship, and knives are swordsmanship.

Therefore, it is not impossible for swordsmen to use knives, but most of the people who still choose swordsmen as their professions have a sense of superiority and feel that catching knives has never made the sword noble, elegant and generous. However, Xinjie has no psychological obstacles in this regard. The so-called weapons can be used as long as they are used. It's just that he has never encountered a suitable weapon before, but he didn't expect to encounter it this time.

The most attractive thing about this knife is that Xinjie can feel that the knife does not seem to be as simple as a weapon. It seems to have life and is making a silent call to him.

"Strange, how can you feel this way?"

Xinjie was very surprised after confirming that this feeling was not his hallucination. Is this knife really spiritual?

Seeing Xinjie staring at the knife for a long time, the teenager suddenly smiled:

"Swordsman? Soldier? What's your name, sir?

Hearing him take the initiative to talk to himself, Xinjie simply stepped forward, "Xinjie, swordsman."

"Xinjie? That's a good name."

The teenager nodded and gently tapped the knife in front of him with his hand. His finger joints and knife body hit each other, making a crisp sound: "What? Do you like it?"

Without waiting for Xinjie to answer, he continued, "I seldom see a swordsman again. You have a good vision. Let me know you. My name is Roddick, and I'm a seal master."

"Do you sell this knife?"

The self-introduction of the young seal master named Roddick did not attract too much attention. He still focused on the knife in front of Roddick and asked.

"sell! Why don't you sell it! I worked hard to catch it just to sell it at a good price, didn't I? But..." As he spoke, his tone suddenly changed, "Mr. Xinjie, I'm afraid you can't afford this bloody blade!"
