Chapter 363 Sailing

Although Li was puzzled about the "dead", he didn't care too much. In order to maintain the authority of its rule, any means can be used for a ruling group. Deification of the surname of this ruling group is not a special thing in itself. In the history of the flower-growing empire, there will be a process of sanctification of emperors before they ascending the throne. The name of the emperor itself is With an extremely strong sacred color.

I think the Greyjoy family should do the same thing. Only this family favored by the sea god will produce a real "dead", which is one of the processes of deification of the surname Greyjoy.

And according to Hei Redding, the combat effectiveness of a "dead" is extremely limited. He defeats a "dead" with his own hands in a one-on-one situation. At this level, no matter what title he has, Li doesn't have to care too much. What Li really wants to see is all kinds of this world. High-level organizations, and the people living under these organizations.

Whether Lee finally decides to help the rebels, he must do at least one thing, that is, the world will become better after the Knights of the Temple intervene.

"Wake up these two guys," Li motioned the old mage and the old knight lying on the ground with his chin. "I have some questions to ask them. Maybe our first stop should be the Mage Association."

The young James quickly hit two basins of cold water and poured it on the faces of the two old men. After the two woke up in a daze, he respectfully saluted Li, who was sitting on the chair.

"What's the matter? Do you still want to thank me for being beaten?"

"This is to thank you for not killing us." The etiquette of the old knight is particularly grand. He staggered to Li with his sword and knelt down on one knee. Then he raised his head and said to Li Cheng, who was sitting, "Hello, I'm Knight Hugo. I insulted you rudely before, rashly, and pulled out my sword and waved a weapon to you. Between us The battle has begun, but it is easily defeated by you by strange means. Generally speaking, our lives are in your hands. You can easily take our lives, but your kindness makes you let us go. Anyway, your nobility makes me feel guilty and ashamed. And rationally speaking, we should have been your captive, but we are willing to pay for ourselves.

Li looked at the old knight who knelt on one knee in front of him, raised his head, but his face turned red, and then at Master Paracelsus standing behind the old knight. The strong inner ring mage was embarrassingly counting the lines on the floor. Obviously, what had just happened made the two old men a little embarrassed.

Li looked at Hairedding, his current employee, and asked, "Is that the truth?"

"Yes, for ordinary people, you can deal with them at will, but one is the guardian knight of the Holy See and the other is the inner ring mage of the Mages' Association. Their identities are equivalent to the nobles. According to the rules, they either ask them for ransom or kill them, but it is difficult for you to force them. The slave left behind.

"What if the other party is an ordinary person?"

"Then they will become your slaves and your private property."

"Will the battle lead to this result? Can you beat prisoners and slaves with a casual fight? Isn't it a happy life for people who can beat in this world?

"How can it be? Naturally, there is a difference. Generally, there are rules for battles between nobles. Duel and sudden sneak attack with a sword without permission are completely different."

"So it is." Li smiled and said, "It's interesting. So you two, now you are my prisoners. Please sit down and talk."

The two took a breath. They found a good chair at ease, sat down on the round table, and Shi Shiran began to drink. For the two of them, their lives can be regarded as a little basic guarantee.

"Wake you up to ask you a few questions. I hope you can answer them frankly."

"Excuse me."

"How long has the Mage Association been established? What kind of organization is this?

"Shortly after the founding of the Holy See, the Mages' Association was also founded," Master Paracelsus sat for a while and recovered from the feeling of dizziness. Hearing Li's question, he hurriedly replied, "In the eyes of most people, the mage is always an evil and frightening existence, while the Holy See It is the place people yearn for. This is just the prejudice of fools. The fact is that the Association of Mage has always been maintained by the Holy See, and the Association of Mage was originally founded by the will of the Holy See. It can be said that the Church is just a branch under the Holy See, which is specially used to guide those with special talents.

"Hasn't any special person come to you and ask to take away those people with special talents?"

Master Paracelsus was stunned and then replied, "I don't quite understand what you mean."

Li nodded to show that he understood.

There are too many worlds belonging to the empire. Not every world is lucky enough to be visited by the black ship of the empire. If there is no black ship to arrive in this world and take away those dangerous psionics, then the psionics in this world will naturally become a problem.

"Texplanation for me!" Li continued to ask, "Many people think that the mage is a dangerous person who will bring danger to himself and the people around him. What do you think of this problem, Master Paracelsus?"

"This is a very objective statement," the old Master Paracelsus nodded and admitted, "The talent that the mage has is both an ability and a curse. This ability makes you different and incompatible with ordinary personality, and in many cases this book means death, especially when he When they show a certain degree of harm, every father will get angry when he sees his child's hair, and will not hurt himself because of this burning. The first thing they think of is not that the child has a special talent, but that the child is cursed by the devil.

A criminal can plunge several villages into panic, a perverted serial killer can plunge a city into fear, and an evil psionic can plunge a country or even a world into crisis. In particular, if the powerful force is not controlled, it may cause terrible damage. In some other empire-controlled areas, the control of psionics is very strict. Few psionics escape the surveillance and control of the empire. These special talents will be forcibly sucked into the empire's system and serve the empire from all directions. In the Far East, this control was naturally relaxed. For some less important worlds, the empire adopted a careless attitude.

But the world itself has made corresponding actions to avoid this threat, and the Mage Association should be established under this spirit.

"The mage will gather those who have psychic talents together to test them, and let them learn, so that these people can be bathed in the teachings of the emperor and know good and evil." Master Paracelsus said, "These people are not ordinary people. The education method of ordinary people is not good for them, and only the mage will be the same kind of the mage. For all mage, the mage will be their real home and their refuge."

Of course, not only that, but also monitor and control these mages. Li can see through the relationship between the mage and the so-called guardian knight at a glance. On the one hand, the guardian knight is to block the enemy in front of the mage in the battle. I'm afraid the more important task is when the mage can't control himself. Execute them decisively.

Just like the way the defense army treats psionics, on the one hand, the psionics in the imperial defense force are protected by the guards, and on the other hand, their lives are threatened by the guards at any time. As long as there is something wrong with these psionic powers, the guards will definitely decisively shoot off the people they protect.

So the guardian knights of this world are not so much guardians as monitors and hunters. For old knights who can summon the power of the Holy God to fight, ordinary psionics may not be able to resist this kind of enemy at all. The divine power can completely repel the less powerful psionic power and attack Collapse, restrained the power of the psionics in a wide range and lost their spiritual ability. These psionics are just a chicken to be slaughtered in front of the fully armed and strictly trained guardian knights.

"It's very interesting. How do the mages fight? Also, what kind of test did you just say to give a test?"

"We call the power of nature to fight for us through spells and gestures." Master Paracelsus said, "Flame, frost, and lightning can all become our weapons. It is mainly through spiritual and soul cultivation to make our souls stronger and make our spiritual strength more abundant. There are more than 100 kinds of magic in the mage Tower, but only more than 20 kinds of magic can be learned. Most of the rest rely on talent.

"There are more than a hundred kinds of magic," Li's eyes flashed in an instant. He simply sent a pillow when he was sleepy. Some time ago, he was still worried about having a powerful psionic energy, but there was no suitable way to use it. Now it's good. "Can I go and have a look?"

"Well, I think the spells of the mage's meeting should not be worth mentioning for a powerful caster like you."

"No, no, no, on the contrary, I'm very interested. If I can, I hope I can start from the apprenticeship in your mage club, but I'm not on vacation here, and I'm a little busy, so I'm afraid I can only go for a walk. You won't refuse me, will you?"

Master Paracelsus sighed helplessly, "I'm afraid the mage will have no choice. They can only refuse you. A powerful mage like you has become a gray mage. This is already very dangerous and irresponsponsible. It is impossible for the mage to open the library to you, which can only make Your danger is just getting bigger.

"Grey Master?"

"Those mages who killed their guardian knights, who broke away from the mages' association and the Holy See, usually become gray mages." Haireddin explained, "There are many gray mages in history. Some of them hide from unknown islands to avoid the pursuit of the Holy See, while some have caused terrible damage to the world. Three hundred years ago, the blood mages washed three large islands with blood, and tens of thousands of people died under his evil magic."

"That's it. But it's not my fault. I don't have a guardian knight at all. It's a pity that the library can't be opened to me, but you two don't have to be nervous. Anyway, you don't have to worry. Even if your library is completely open to me now, I'm afraid I don't have much time.

The old mage and the old knight did not speak, but obviously, the two old men did not believe at all. Will there be any mage in the world without guardian knights? Even if he has never joined the association and has not been systematically studied, how can he have such a strong soul and spirit if he is a mage practicing alone? Master Paracelsus used spiritual oppression on the young man, but he didn't expect to be stunned by the other party's strong spiritual power, which shows that the other party's strength is far beyond his imagination. As an inner ring mage, he may not be as good as ordinary people in front of this young man.

Instead, Hailedding looked out of the dark window and said nothing more.

"So that's it. Let's have a good rest tonight. We'll leave tomorrow. Let's go to the Mage Tower first, collect the ransom by the way, and then go to see Daenerys. Is there a dragon in this world? It's really exciting."

Several people did not communicate too much. James took Lee to his room, turned his head and found Hai Reading. The two talked for a long time, but most of them were explaining to James about their sea snake army.

And about the sudden appearance of Li, James also asked several times, but Haireddin avoided it. In the end, he was a little impatient when asked by Jaime, so he said, "What do you have to say? This man is full of secrets, but he is extremely powerful. Fortunately, he is not a murderous person, otherwise we will be finished tonight. We don't know anything about this person. Fortunately, we know that he has this extremely strong strength and doesn't look like a madman, so we still have a great opportunity to fulfill his promise. Think about it, it's a ship that can sail under the sea.

"So what should I do about Daenerys? Should the Sea Snake Regiment join the rebels?

"Don't worry. If Daenerys wants to liberate slaves, then things won't be so simple. Let's put this big deal aside first. I still have to earn my own boat first. If there is no good boat, it's bullshit. Nothing is as good as strength. As long as our sea snake group is strong, no matter who becomes the sea world. The king of the world has nothing to do with us.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Li took his employee Hai Reading, as well as the old knight and the old mage directly into the port. Above the port, Li saw the Sea Snake that Hai Reading was proud of.

Unexpectedly, the Sea Snake is actually a large sailboat. From its appearance, it looks a bit like a large Spanish sailboat, with high and gorgeous tail towers and high port. However, compared with the large Spanish sailboat, the hull of this sailboat is more The length of the addition is obviously due to the consideration of speed.

Li pedaled on Hai Reading's ship and was arranged to the most luxurious captain's room. This was originally Hai Reading's room. After a busy night, he had cleaned the whole room once. He had been waiting for Li to check in for a long time, but he still couldn't go to sea immediately. At noon, the Sea Snake was full of food. Water and wine opened the sails and slowly slid out of the port amid the cheers of the crowd.

"This harbor looks good," Li Lie said on the side of the ship, "It's lively, everyone is very warm, and it's even more polite and friendly to you."

"That's because this is a seaport city and the residence of the Sea Snake Legion," the Hugo Knight stood aside and interrupted, "This city is protected by the Sea Snake Legion, so there are no nobles who dare to attack the city for the time being, but the people here are not so good. Farming in an ordinary aristocratic manor, at least you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and you don't have to worry about safety. In such a harbor city, you may be cut from behind at any time, and the other party is likely to just like the buttons on your clothes.

"Just because of a button to kill people?" Li was a little stunned, "Is the button expensive?"

"How can it be? Even the gorgeous buttons on the aristocratic dress are not worth much."

"Then why didn't he just ask me for threats and intimidation? Isn't it better?"

"Because they believe that it is far better for them to reach out and ask for it. If others give it, it's better to take it yourself. Hei Redding shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's what pirates think, but even so, Drassa is much better than the big islands controlled by the nobles. At least it's free here. People from the air to here are all free."

"It's just a group of criminals, slaves, and prostitutes who escaped here, and they still talk about freedom."

"Then what are you? As a knight, are you plotting a rebellion?"

"Daneris is a real queen worth following," Hugo said. "The bishop supports this queen to make the people of the world better."

Looking at the fading islands and the pigeons flying under the sky, breathing the air with the smell of sea water, Li no longer listens to these meaningless quarrels.

How happy people in this world should be. They have fresh, unpolluted air, blue and beautiful sea and sky that make people's hearts ripple, but they can't live a good life. Why?
