Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 63 Chapter 63: The Ideal Paradise

After struggling for nearly 3 minutes, Angie finally succeeded in persuading Hadford to keep him.

At this time, in this small stone hut, she and Hadford were sitting together by the wall, but there was a short distance between them.

And Hadford still looked awkward, turning his head to look outside the door on purpose, so that people couldn't see his expression at the moment.

Angie could only smile wryly, and asked him:
"So, you pulled me out, is there anything else you want to find me?"

Seeing that Hadford didn't answer immediately, she waited patiently for a while, and then heard the other party say something dull:
"...give me the gift."

"Eh?"

Angie didn't react for a moment, and blinked.

gift? ?
She didn't reply for a long time, and then saw Hadford turned his head.

"Give me the gift," he said to Angie impatiently, but looked away, "If you bring it back to Glosk, you will definitely be discovered by Slade. Didn't you say you want to be the lord? With your current ability, you can’t use this—”

"Wait, wait, wait!"

Angie hurriedly interrupted Hadford, and took out the round, cold thing from his pocket: "Is this a gift?"

It looks like a transparent egg, only the size of a palm, with a deep purple round floating object inside, and the bottom part seems to be embedded into a black iron base, with a metallic luster.

Earlier in the church hall, Anji found something suddenly in his pocket, but he only had time to touch it, and he hadn't seen what it looked like yet.

At this moment, when she finally took this thing out of her pocket, she couldn't help being a little surprised to see its small and chic appearance for the first time.

Hadford squinted at the "egg" in Angie's hand, and sneered: "Yes, this is a gift. However, its current appearance is only its most basic form. Those curses in your body are still there. If you don’t have enough food for it, you won’t be able to display its true abilities, you can only let that layer of white light cover your body, and it won’t even be able to form a small barrier..."

As he said this, he suddenly snatched the "transparent egg" from Anji's hand, weighed it a few times, and then looked at her with a shocked face, showing a wicked smile:

"Give it to me first."

After a brief surprise, Angie quickly regained her composure.She was not in a hurry to ask the other party for the treasure that was in her hands.If Hadford really wanted the "gift", he could grab it directly instead of patiently explaining to her for so long.

It's just that the white light on her body disappeared the moment Hadford took the "egg".

At the same time, the feeling of dizziness, nausea, and weakness suddenly emerged from Angie's body.

She couldn't help closing her eyes, calmed down, and then asked:
"Why do you say 'Give it to you first'? You will pay me back later?"

"Well. I'll keep it for you first—you don't really think that Slade will keep it for you, do you? She'll just take the gift away and give you something else. Between gifts Reciprocal, the moment you take it through the barrier, Slade will be aware of its existence. Even if you try your best to hide it, it will be in vain."

Perhaps because of some guilt in his heart, Hadford's attitude is obviously much better than before.Normally, he would never explain the reason to Anji so patiently.

This gave Anji confidence, and continued to ask him:

"Then when will I be able to use the 'gift'? If I want to become a lord, what should I do?"

It was rare to feel Angie's eagerness, and Hadford couldn't help laughing out loud.

He looked at the "little rookie" in his eyes, and while his face was slightly gloomy, he sighed deeply:
"You really don't know anything. You dare to say that you want to be a lord like this. You are really a newborn calf."

After mocking Angie, Hadford turned around and looked at her head-on, with a meaningful smile on the only half of his face:

"At the very least, you have to wait until your resistance to curses reaches 100—at this point, even if you don't want to be a lord, I will let you do it forcibly. Because, you have given the 'gift' Recognize the Lord."

"Acknowledge the Lord..." Anji couldn't help scratching his head, his tone was obviously not confident, "I don't know what's going on now... I just touched it before, and then I felt like I was bitten... "

"It already regards you as its master."

Hadford explained, staring into her eyes, and suddenly laughed a few seconds later:
"Oh, little...forget it, I'll just call you by your name—your name is Angie, right?"

Seeing the blonde girl in front of him nodded, he continued:
"Anji, listen carefully: the gift will only recognize one owner from the beginning to the end. If the owner dies, it will die with it. If you really want to be a lord, you must have your own 'gift'— — This is the lowest threshold for becoming a lord. Only by using gifts to build barriers and form a territory that is isolated from curses can ordinary people in your territory survive and thrive... As a lord, you will always have people other than the fearless People?"

Angie nodded silently.It was rare for Hadford to put on such a serious look and talk to her for a long time. Of course, she could also feel the sincerity and sincerity in the other party's words.

It's just... why did he choose to help her?
Angie tilted her head in bewilderment, looked at the person she had known for less than a day, and asked in a low voice, "What's your reason for helping me?"

"Help you?" Hadford sneered, "I want to ask you—why do you want to be a lord? Angie, you should be very clear that once you choose this path, you choose to be with Slade." And the thing that the old woman hated the most in her life was that someone betrayed her. "

What Angie has done is naturally a kind of betrayal - using Slade's resources to improve his own strength, and after his wings are hardened, he stands on his own and competes with the former lord for territory, people, and even his subordinates .

Thinking of this, Hadford's smile became brighter: If this thing can really succeed, the old woman will probably be so angry that she will go crazy?

But it is also possible that it will lead to another ending.

He laughed at himself, looked at Anji, and said the cruel fact: "Perhaps, you will die in a miserable manner before the day when you can make a barrier. Even if you can Surviving in various foreign lands, from the moment you betray Slade, you are destined to pay a tragic price-maybe your soul is burned, or you may be directly chopped into flesh. Your life, this It's not in your own hands."

"I know."

Angie's voice was still the same calm.After answering the other party immediately, she lowered her eyes slightly, and after a while, she looked into the other party's eyes again, and said the true thoughts that existed deep in her heart:

"I just want to live more freely and have more choices. If possible, I hope to create a world where I can laugh with my significant other. Where people can live without worrying about the outside world. The curse will suddenly invade one day, and I don’t have to worry about being forced to sacrifice myself or my family because I can’t pay the poll tax, and I don’t have to worry about my immediate superiors asking me to do strange things—the most important thing is, I want to have a home of my own. It will be a paradise made up of me, those I love, and my people. For this, I will do whatever it takes, at any cost."

Hadford listened to these words in silence, then chuckled.

Angie's thoughts didn't surprise him at all—since this guy is willing to save her enemies and has that kind of ability, he will naturally have this kind of character.

However, her original home disappeared because of him.

He took a deep breath to calm himself down a bit, but he couldn't help showing a mocking smile on his face: "Even if you pay a price worse than death?"

"Even if you pay a price worse than death—even if life is worse than death, it doesn't matter."

Anji said firmly, but after saying this, she suddenly laughed: "You don't seem surprised?"

"It's not surprising at all, because you look like such a fool," Hadford shrugged disdainfully, "I think there is something wrong with your brain."

"But you've been talking with me until now," Angie looked at him calmly. "In my opinion, you may also have a problem with your brain."

After a moment of silence, Hadford couldn't help laughing.

After a long time, he slowly restrained his smile, and said again:

"Your courage is really getting bigger and bigger, and you have even learned to talk back... Maybe what you said is right, but compared to a fool like you who takes others too seriously, what I have done Everything is for myself."

Hearing his words, Angie smiled slightly:
"So now, can I ask you to tell me what you think? The reason for helping me, the reason for betraying Slade, and why you want to destroy the barrier of Grand Village... Hadford, I want to know, these three things s answer."

　Does Angie's personality surprise you? (squinting smile)

　　In fact, as early as in the village of Ande Kofi, it had already been reflected.

　　Well, maybe some people still can't accept it~
　　Turnips and vegetables have their own preferences, and everyone will have different views on this matter.

　　I hope the following story will satisfy you~
