Chapter 629 Resonance Between Daughters
For Li Yalin, the matter of eradicating the Demon Thieves Group is just a small episode. His goal is to kill the saint of the Church of Light. After staying in this small town of the Gulan Kingdom for one night, he will leave the next day. here.
Logically speaking, Uncle Morgan should take care of the funeral early. Even if so many people died in the city, it is not difficult to get it done. After all, they are just a group of thieves without human rights. If you kill them, you may still get The bonus may also be uncertain, who would be free to trouble the envoys of the Flaming Lion Kingdom for a group of thieves.
But the crux of the problem is that when Li Yalin woke up the next morning and was about to continue on his way, he was surprised to find that there were some more people in his team.
"I said Uncle Morgan, what is the situation?"
Li Yalin stared at Uncle Morgan in surprise, did he make a mistake? Why did Hannah appear in her team? And the dozens of people behind her are all armed thieves with murderous looks on their faces... Oh no, they should be called mercenaries, at least they think so.
Li Yalin was very puzzled by this. He knew that Morgan and Hannah must have some grievances between the father and daughter, otherwise Uncle Morgan would not have stalked him last night, but the problem is, you can't put your own Is the grievance mixed into the business?
This mission is not to celebrate the coronation of the saint in the true sense, but to carry out an assassination, to carry out an assassination, you bring your own daughter and a group of guys called mercenaries who are actually thieves, what are you going to do?
"Ahem... I think we will encounter a lot of troubles when we go to the Church of Light this time. It just so happens that Hannah has been leading the bandit... mercenary group activities around here. If she can help take care of it , we can feel a lot more at ease, no.”
Facing Li Yalin's astonishment, Uncle Morgan looked a little embarrassed. After all, what he said was orderly, but in fact it was for his own selfishness. Of course he looked guilty.
"Really?" Li Yalin raised his eyebrows, but seeing how embarrassed Uncle Morgan was, he finally sighed and didn't say anything more.
Forget it, it's just a few more people, it doesn't matter.
In fact wait until running away for a day. After arriving at the resting town again at night, Uncle Morgan informed in a low voice that it turned out that the Demon Realm Thieves Group was wiped out last night, but it brought a lot of trouble to Hannah, and he had no choice but to take Hannah with him.
As a powerful bandit group. If it is said that he has no support behind him, no ghost will believe it. Why did Yura, the punk leader who was killed, have the confidence to subdue Hannah's thieves? Naturally, someone gave him absolute confidence.
But it's a pity that the Demon Realm Thieves Group was wiped out, and the wishful thinking of the people behind the scenes was in vain. Naturally, this account will be settled on Hannah's head.
Even if there is no problem on the official surface. But there is no guarantee that Hannah will not be secretly plotted, because he is really worried about his daughter's safety, so Uncle Morgan ignores his old face. Hire Hannah's Bloodthirsty Rose mercenaries anyway.
At least with him, Hannah can be protected.
"You're asking for trouble, Uncle Morgan." After hearing Morgan's explanation, Li Yalin shook his head speechlessly. Since someone will trouble Hannah, it means that Uncle Morgan is now alone. Trouble resisted. As a team about to carry out a secret assassination mission, this is really not wise enough.
Although in this team. Except for Li Yalin and Morgan, no one knew the truth, and the soldiers really thought they were going to the coronation ceremony. But the crux of the problem is, as one of the parties involved, Morgan, can he still not know the importance of this?
Morgan didn't know Li Yalin's true identity, but he did know that Li Yalin must be inextricably linked with the demons. After all, as Princess Korra's confidant, some connections between the Kingdom of Flaming Lions and the Kingdom of Real Demons were fundamental. Impossible to hide from him.
For the future of the Flaming Lion Kingdom, Princess Cora once told Morgan that the task this time was to destroy the coronation ceremony, and if it was best, kill Her Royal Highness. Morgan also swore a heavy oath in front of Princess Cora , vowed to risk his life to complete this task.
But now, he made such a wrong choice for his daughter. You must know that if there is a mistake in a certain link, then all the previous plans will be in vain.
And Hannah and her so-called mercenary group are exactly this variable.
"I know, but I can't help it. If something really goes wrong this time, I will bear it all!" Uncle Morgan's face was full of guilt and complicated expressions. So far, he has no turning back.
"Can you afford it? If something goes wrong, it's useless to use your life to cover it up." Li Yalin rolled his eyes, Uncle Morgan's is purely broken, can you afford such a big thing?
It's not that Li Yalin is scaremongering, it's just the fact that this is the case. However, he is not incomprehensible to Morgan's actions. They are all parents. He can feel that Uncle Morgan's concern for his daughter is no less than his own.
On this point, Li Yalin, who is also a daughter-in-law, actually resonated with Morgan!
Ahem, it doesn't matter if Morgan is a daughter-in-law or not, anyway, Li Yalin is right to think so.
"I……"
Uncle Morgan hesitated for a while, but he couldn't answer, because he understood that he really couldn't bear it, but what can he do now? Could it be possible to drive Hannah away and put her in danger?
"Forget it, let's not take this as an example, but having said that, Uncle Morgan, if you have any illegitimate daughters and illegitimate children, tell them now, don't have another son or daughter appear on the way, if it happens again, I can't bear it. "
Knowing that Morgan is very guilty now, Li Yalin didn't have to be unreasonable anymore. Instead, he sighed and acquiesced in this matter. However, after acquiescing, Li Yalin spoke again, which immediately made Uncle Morgan's face full of embarrassment. It's full of black lines.
"I only have one daughter! And it's not illegitimate!"
Uncle Morgan is so angry, what do you mean a son and daughter come out halfway, what nonsense are you bastard! If Hannah hears it, I'll be dead, okay!
"Oh? Isn't it illegitimate? Then why do you have such a bad relationship with her?" Upon hearing this, Li Yalin immediately approached her with great interest, taking the opportunity to know some gossip.
"It's not back then... why are you telling me this, go to sleep!" Originally Morgan wanted to continue following the topic, but soon he realized that this kid was deliberately trying to set his own words. With angry eyes, he glared at Li Yalin, and shut his mouth very wisely.
"Cut, have you been discovered?" Li Yalin cut out in displeasure. This time the routine failed, but he will not give up. He is quite curious about the grievances between Morgan and Hannah, father and daughter. If you don't know If the truth is true, it is absolutely uncomfortable.
But from the looks of it, it might be difficult to talk stereotyped words from Uncle Morgan, although he is usually careless, but his mouth is very strict at critical moments.
Morgan can't do it here, so the attention must be shifted to Hannah's side. It seems that I have to find an opportunity, at least get in touch with Hannah.
But it is a pity that the most important task for Li Yalin and his party now is to hurry. They have been running for two days, and they are still about three days away from the holy mountain. If they work harder, it is not impossible to arrive earlier.
Although it was a little more cumbersome, these former thieves were more capable than Li Yalin imagined, and they were able to keep up with the speed of his elite group, which is not bad.
Of course, it is said to be elite, but in fact, this group of cavalry under Li Yalin looks more powerful and good-looking. In terms of actual combat power... Li Yalin estimated that they are about the same as the guards of the outer city of the Blood League City. , and even worse.
There is no way, the number of soldiers in the human world is large, but the quality is uneven. It is basically incomparable with the demons. If the humans hadn't used the crowd tactics back then, and there were a few top masters by the way, they would have been unable to defeat the demons. of.
Although the number of demons is small, their fighting power is extremely strong. This is the simplest common sense in the entire continent.
So for Li Yalin, the two hundred so-called elite cavalry were actually just putting on a show for him, and he didn't expect much from them at all.
With a group of cavalry whose average strength is only intermediate warriors (equivalent to the intermediate demon warriors of the Demon Race), what expectations can Li Yalin have? Randomly pick a few loli from the book of summons and they can be abused, no discussion at all.
Not much to say, for the next two days, there was no trouble on the road, and the unimpeded progress made everyone relax their vigilance, including Li Yalin.
In his opinion, there is still about a day to arrive at the holy mountain. When the time comes, he will enter the field early and have more time to think about the next plan, so the journey all the way is not wasted.
But who would have thought that at this moment, an accident happened.
"Sorry... I really caused you trouble this time."
Riding the horse and coming to Li Yalin, Hannah's face was full of guilt. After all, they were father and daughter. At this moment, Hannah's expression was very similar to that of Morgan.
"It's okay, this is my carelessness, get ready to fight."
Li Yalin shook his head. He was indeed careless. He was so careless that he fell into an ambush by the enemy. If it wasn't at the most critical moment that my sixth sense sensed something was wrong and stopped advancing, I'm afraid I would have plunged into the enemy's ambush circle. (to be continued)
