Riding and Slashing

Chapter 184 Wendy Erff
Ramon laughed: "As expected of a casino tycoon..."

"I hardly ever gamble...but since we can't agree, it's the best way."

Li Ang also laughed: "However, I don't want to bet on dice with you... Ramon, usually a guy like you who carries dice with you can control the points as you like..."

Ramon was stunned, shook his head and put the dice back with a smile: "Then what do you want to bet?"

"I have a silver coin here... let's bet on pros and cons, this is relatively simple."

Li Ang took out a one-ounce silver dollar, and lit up the front and back. On one side was Emperor Buckley's head, and on the other side was the words 'One Dinar'.

Ramon seemed to have seen this kind of silver coin before, and nodded: "Bakley dinar... OK! If I guess correctly, you will listen to me. If I don't guess correctly, you can take away those Noldor girl."

"Okay! Ramon, which side do you choose to face up? Head portrait or text?"

The lord held the silver coin in his hand as if about to throw it away.

"Avatar face up!"

This kind of gambling method does not need to be too entangled, anyway, it is half and half, and Ramon chose the head face without much hesitation.

"it is good!"

The lord nodded, and bounced the silver coin high.

The silver coin kept flipping and bouncing several meters high before falling under Ramon's horse.

On the upward side, there is the words 'One Dinar', without a portrait.

Ramon sighed in frustration: "Okay, it looks like I lost this round...Brothers, back off!"

This guy was a good gambler, and immediately turned around and waved his hand to signal all his men to leave the carriage.

The people in black retreated a hundred meters away obediently.

The lord was not polite, he waved his hand, and asked his cavalry to surround the carriages, which was regarded as the completion of the handover.

Looking at the corpses of the Singal riders beside the carriage, Li Ang realized that Ramon Hei had killed Feruz.

This obviously means that Ramon is not some heroic knight...

So, will he have any backhands?
He said 'I lost this round'...

'This game'?What's the next game?
The lord thought for a while, then turned back to the place where he gambled with Ramon, and picked up the silver coin with the face up.

"Ramon, wait!"

Ramon was struggling to return to his team, but Li Ang stopped him, took out another silver coin from his body, and came to Ramon again.

"Sorry, good brother, these two silver coins are probably the same kind of gambling equipment as the dice on your body... If I'm not wrong, your dice is filled with lead, right?"

Li Ang handed the two large silver coins in his hand to Ramon, smiling apologetically.

Ramon looked at the silver coin in his hand.

These are two specially made silver coins, one with head portraits on both sides, and the other with words on both sides...

Moreover, these two silver coins are a little thinner than normal silver coins. If you look closely at the ears of wheat on the edge, you can see that the size is uneven, which is obviously handmade.

Ramon laughed wryly in a low voice, stacked the two silver coins, and followed Li Ang's example just now, and lit the front and back.

Folded and held in the hand, it looks like a standard one-ounce silver coin.

"Got it...but the tuition is expensive...ha! How do you know there's lead in my dice?"

Ramon didn't show any displeasure, nor did he accuse Li Ang of playing shameless tricks, he was willing to admit defeat, he was not the kind of person who couldn't afford to lose.

However, both men now know that the gamble is not over yet.

"Only old thieves like us carry gambling equipment with them, and for old thieves like us, the gambling equipment must be tampered with...Ramon, did you also drink some lead in this valley?"

Li Ang smiled and said in a low voice.

The dice and silver coins are gambling equipment, but the venue is also a gambling equipment—the silver coin belongs to Li Ang, but the venue is Ramon's...

Ramon was silent, did not speak, and seemed a little hesitant in his eyes.

"My dear brother, don't gamble your life, it's not worth it whether you win or lose. We are all businessmen, and I know that if you take something from a businessman, you must pay for it—just as if I used this dinar to take something from your hand." I bought them back, how about it?"

Li Ang was still smiling, but his attitude was serious and serious.

"...Well, since we are the same bastards, then I won't bet on the second round... It's a great blessing to meet a good brother like you."

Ramon was silent for a few seconds, then put away the two special silver coins, looked at Leon and said seriously: "It's just that I gave you a huge discount for friendship... Although I only earned one dinar, But I'm much more comfortable now..."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his arms high and waved twice.

Then Li Ang saw hundreds of men in black stand up from the bushes on the side ridge, just like Li Ang himself ambushed the slave hunting team not long ago.

The lord let out a long breath.

Sure enough, Ramon still has 'next inning'.

But fortunately, Ramon is not only a gambler with gambling products, but also a qualified businessman.

"Huh... so, we are really good brothers now, Ramon. I will give you a ransom brokerage business to make up for your loss... You have heard of Levius of the Bacchus Empire and his son Fei Bius? They are my captives now—and I still have more than 400 shadow infantry soldiers. You can represent this ransom business, and I only need to collect [-] dinars in the end."

Now that Ramon made a concession, the lord of course wanted to reciprocate, so he sincerely gave Ramon a good business in the way of a businessman, and gave him a very low wholesale price.

"Hiss... The governor of Bacchus was captured by you? It's amazing fighting power! Baron Leon, your friendship is indeed much more valuable than Alfred... This business is good, I will take it."

Of course, Ramon would not refuse this kind of good business. He would definitely earn a lot of money as a middleman.

"If nothing else happens, the war between the Sarleon Kingdom and the Bacchus Empire will start again. I will definitely have a lot of business for you in the future... You might as well send an agent to White Hart Castle. There are no red brothers in my territory Yes, but I need a ransom broker—of course, I'm talking about a ransom broker, not a slaver..."

After Li Ang finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Ramon: "Brother, cooperation can win-win. As for your slave auction...Ramon, which slave trader have you seen can live to die? I think...in the future we may We can jointly auction the seat of the city lord, or even the throne! Do you think such a business would be more interesting?"

Ramon's eyes widened suddenly.

"Auctioning the throne?! This is really an amazing idea, I am looking forward to that day... You are right, good brother, cooperation can win-win! I really can't trade slaves for the rest of my life..."

Ramon held the Lord Lord's hand and sighed in a low voice.

Afterwards, he no longer struggled, turned around and left with his men in black without looking back.

Li Ang looked at the back of Ramon going away, and spread out his hands, holding three extremely delicate dice.

It was what Ramon stuffed into Li Ang's hand during the handshake.

"My lord, I seem to have heard you call him Ramon? He is the biggest slave trader in Singal, right? He is the king of the underground... How can you convince him?"

Seeing Li Ang coming back, Lisa Dilan looked at the people in black who were leaving, and was a little incomprehensible. He had stayed in Singal and heard of Ramon's reputation.

"No, I didn't convince him. He chose to give in... I may have to pay him back the favor in the future."

Li Ang glanced at the dice in his hand again, and put the dice into his arms.

"How can a slave trader have any favors?...Slave traders deserve to die!"

Vendatil held the bow and stared at the departing Ramon until the men in black completely disappeared from sight, then put the bow back on his back and said something casually.

Afterwards, she came to the carriage, drew out the sword at her waist, and slashed at the lock of the huge iron cage of the carriage.

Sparks flew everywhere, and the lock was chopped off by an extremely violent sword.

"Maybe, but you also know that he could have taken hostages to force us to back down... Besides, we didn't find the people he was ambushing on the mountain—the troops that you didn't even detect with your ears, which means that they have no voice at all. None of them have been sent out, with such discipline and execution ability, the combat effectiveness can be imagined..."

The lord shook his head and stepped forward to help Vendatil untie the ropes that tied the Noldo girls into zongzi.

"Are all human beings so insidious? They all like to ambush..."

Wendatil didn't say anything else, just grunted and let the Noldo girls out of the iron cage, and then hugged the little girl with purple pupils, looking left and right to see if she was injured.

"Wendy, luckily nothing happened to you."

It seems that Vendatil has a deep relationship with the Noldo girl.

"Teacher Wendatil... I thought that there would be a handsome prince riding a white horse to rescue me..."

The Noldo girl called 'Wendy' didn't show any panic, but looked around curiously at the people around her.

"Wendy, you should read less knight novels... This is Baron Leon, he saved you..."

Vendatil shook his head and pointed to the lord.

Now Li Ang rode a black horse and drove for a few days in a row, and his dusty appearance didn't look too good, he didn't look like a prince at all, but like an ordinary mercenary.

The girl caressed her chest, blinked her big bright eyes, and saluted the lord seriously: "Master Li Ang, I am Wentierf, and I will never forget the kindness of saving my life...I will repay you."

The girl's eyes are clean and pure. Looking into her eyes, one can even have the illusion that the purple starry sky is constantly flowing.

Perhaps the purple pupils signify not only her nobility but also some kind of magic.

But Li Ang frowned deeply.

"Wendy, I'll wait until I get back to say thank you. It may not be considered as saving you now... Your eyes are so beautiful, but they are full of danger..."

The lord looked into the eyes of this beautiful girl, but there was obviously some anxiety in his own eyes.

"Master Li Ang, what are you talking about? What makes a brave warrior like you feel dangerous?"

Wentierf turned her face sideways, the corners of her mouth curved, and her face seemed to be slightly flushed.

"Don't get me wrong, Wendy... This probably means that you are a direct bloodline of the Sindari elves, right? His Majesty Felgas'an also has purple eyes..."

Li Ang looked at that beautiful face, shook his head and sighed: "Such eyes cannot be concealed at all - human books also record this characteristic of the Sindarui elves, and human beings also know that the Sindarui elves destroyed the continent ..."

I don't know how many years ago, a small number of individuals with magical powers and capable of releasing powerful magic would appear among the elves from time to time. They were called Xindari, or high elves.

The magical power of the Sindari elves is innate, and after they have gradually mastered the ability to visualize the magic power during their long lives, some of the individual abilities of the Sindari elves can be said to be no different from the gods.

In ancient times, the Sindaril elves once ruled a continent called Gevesdalian in the east of Pendor. They built countless miraculous buildings and mastered magical weapons that could destroy the world.

The elves who were born without magical powers and unable to use magic were called Noldor.

At that time, the Noldor were only servants of the Sindarin - for the Elves, their status was determined from birth.

In the eyes of those Sindari elves, the Noldor who could not use magic was just a servant, and it was as if he didn't even exist.

When the Noldor combine with each other, it is impossible to give birth to the Sindarin elves. Neither the parents have the ability to use magic, nor do the children.

However, the children born to the Sindarin elves are also likely to be Noldor, because this is as completely uncontrollable as having a boy or a girl...

But even the sons of the noble Sindaril, so long as they were the Noldor, were still considered but low elves.

Of course, human beings had a lower status at that time, and they were not even considered intelligent life forms. They could only be regarded as slightly smarter wild animals. In the eyes of the elves, they were no different from monkeys.

Although humans had developed their own civilization at that time, for those ancient races, having a super long lifespan was the key factor for them to evaluate intelligent life.

Because in their view, it takes hundreds of years or even longer to learn all kinds of knowledge and wisdom. In their eyes, creatures with too short life span cannot pass on knowledge.

Perhaps when individual beings are strong enough to a certain extent, they will lose their emotions, because they may really regard themselves as gods-this is true of ancient dragons, titans, and some of the top Sindarin elves.

They have almost no feelings, and they will never suffer any grievances...

As a result, a great battle between the "gods" took place, and the Gevesdalian continent, which originally lived with various legendary species, completely sank in the vast sea. extinct.

The devastating aftermath of magic even spread to the east of Pendor Continent. If it weren't for the towering misty mountains in the middle of the continent, the entire Pendor Continent might be affected...

But what people call the Pendor Continent is actually just the western part of the continent—a small area protected by the Misty Mountains.

Only a small group of Misty Mountain people like An Dongjia, who once tried to live on the east side of the mountains, know what the mountains on the east side of the Noldo Forest look like-it is endless frozen land, almost without any life, even No grass grows.

The only remaining Noldor elves settled in the continent of Pendor under the leadership of a young elf named Avadine. It is said that Avadine got some kind of oracle and was lucky enough to take his tribe away before the continent was destroyed. up.

Avadine is actually a child of the Sindari elves, and he has a distinctive feature-purple pupils.

But it is a pity that he himself is only a Noldor elf, and what he can take away is only a Noldor elf.

In the current Noldor tribe, the three elf kings are all descendants of Avadine, and they all have purple or purple sapphire blue eyes.

It's just that it's not as obvious as Wendy Erfu.

This girl looked like a complete Sindari elf. The brilliance in her eyes flowed like a starry sky. Even a human like Li Ang who had never seen magic could feel the surge of magic power from it.

Wentierf's purple pupils are too bright and obvious, and her appearance is too fair and beautiful - her appearance is really difficult to fake in the era when there are no colored contact lenses.

Anyone can see her difference at a glance.

But the current situation is that a beacon fire was lit at the bridgehead of Qicha Fortress one day ago, and the troops guarding the bridge were killed.

If nothing else happened, the area around the bridge should be completely sealed off now, and the Sarleon Kingdom must have sent a large number of troops to guard against the enemy.

And similarly, most of the troops of the Sava River Fort of the Bacchus Empire will confront each other because of this.

Li Ang was not sure whether his troops could return to Sarleon smoothly under such circumstances.

What's more, now there is a Noldor noble girl who is difficult to disguise.

"My lord, should we go back by another route?"

Only Lisa Dilan understood what the lord was worried about.

"We can't change the route at this position... To the west is the Turda Fortress of Desha, and to the east we have to pass through the entire Bacchus Empire - now the Bacchus Empire is probably starting to prepare for war, we probably won't be able to get through..."

The lord took out the map, gestured twice, and shook his head.

Then he opened several other carriages, only to find that there was actually a halberdier tied up in a carriage full of goods—the carriage was full of Noldor enchanted equipment.

"Are you Lehman's subordinate?"

Li Ang looked at the coat of arms on the halberd soldier, cut the rope that was tied in the halberd soldier's mouth with a small knife, and pulled out a pile of dirty rags from the halberd soldier's mouth.

"Uh……"

The halberd soldier retched several times before he could speak: "Yes, my lord, I am the garrison of Qicha Fortress! I... I was attacked by some Singals, and they killed all my subordinates!"

"I guess... the Singals who killed your subordinates are he?"

Li Ang pointed to Fruz's body.

The halberd soldier jumped out of the carriage and took a look: "Yes! He is the leader! Thank you for saving my life, my lord!"

"...From now on, you'd better forget about these Singals, otherwise this matter will definitely trigger a war between the Sarleon Kingdom and De'shar..."

The lord sighed deeply, and patted the halberd soldier on the shoulder: "The Kingdom and the Bacchus Empire haven't ceased fighting yet, if war is declared with De'Shar again, then the Bacchus Empire will definitely form an alliance with De'Shar to attack the Kingdom ...Besides, being captured by the enemy is not something to be proud of—you should know what happens to captured soldiers when they return home?"

The halberd soldier seemed to be a bit educated. He thought for a while and shuddered: "I listen to you, my lord! What should I do?"

'A halberdier has joined your ranks'.
