Chapter 162
Chapter 162
After calling back Spider Sakura who was patrolling outside, Aarons took her to meet the guest waiting outside the base.
Although the sergeants on duty in the base were very nervous, Aarons was not too worried about his own safety - because Spider Sakura today was not only equipped with a long-handled magic battle axe made by Jiangyue, but also a long-barreled weapon like a missile launcher...
There was too much firepower overflow!
"Well, I haven't asked before... Can you use magic weapons?"
"Answer. My energy core can be compatible with most civilization system creations. Magic power is just an evolutionary form of vitality, which can be perfectly simulated."
"Alas, I also want this convenient ability..."
Aarons has always envied those magicians, but he has no fate with magic after all, so he can only say some envy.
"Persuade. The master does not need to participate in the battle, so don't worry about this kind of problem."
"It's okay, I'm not particularly sad... These are all made by Teacher Jiangyue?"
"Answer. This is a high-frequency thunder attribute magic battle axe and a fluid carbon uranium launcher. The latter needs to be tested."
Zhu Ying originally planned to help Jiangyue test the performance of these weapons today, but just in time for someone to challenge Aarons, she brought them all over.
But what is a fluid launcher? Can the fuel-state magic source stone be used as a weapon?
Considering that he still lacks a lot of basic common sense, Aarons decided to find an opportunity to make up for it later.
...
"I guessed it... You really came again."
Just as Aarons thought, the one who took the initiative to challenge outside the base and maintained a restrained attitude was the mysterious mercenary he met on the road that day.
He took Karin's full-strength attack but did not die. A few days later, he was even able to run to challenge again alive and kicking - this can already prove that this person has a powerful strength that cannot be underestimated.
"Excuse me, Lord Marquis... I want to apologize to you first."
Although still wearing a strange mask, the mercenary did not wear the light scale armor he wore before, but changed into a tight combat uniform that was quite close-fitting and suitable for activities.
Judging from the body curves outlined by the tight clothes, the mercenary was obviously a woman.
"I went to investigate again a few days ago and found out that you are not a wicked and unjust person who deceives the emperor... I spoke ill of you because of misunderstanding before, I hope you can forgive me."
After confirming the other party's gender, the neutral voice turned into a special charm-but Aarons was not so lustful.
"That's all trivial... Let me ask you first, where did you go to investigate me?"
"It was the Moti City Office. I think the people there should be very familiar with your true character... Then I found out that you are actually a noble person who is loyal to the emperor, patriotic, upright and honest."
There are only our own people there. You can only get five-star praise if you ask there...
The people in the City Office may have regarded her as an admirer who wanted to surrender to them, and there is a high probability that she praised herself to the sky in front of her - thinking of this, Aarons couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his head.
"Since you know everything, why do you still want to kill me?"
"I'm very sorry... Because I have already accepted this commission, even if I have to do an unjust act that will be cursed by thousands of people, I must keep my promise."
"You are too stubborn! There are not many mercenaries who are as honest as you!"
Although the other party's inflexible character is indeed a bit irritating, Aarons likes this attitude of carrying out his beliefs.
This is not integrity, but arrogance and greed. Not giving up on one's beliefs no matter what the situation is is greed, and believing that one has the ability to carry out one's beliefs is arrogance.
Because he is such a person in his bones, he can feel some resonance.
"I also know that I am doing something wrong... So I decided to challenge you three times according to the rules of my hometown. If I lose all three battles, then I will be guilty of disrespect, please deal with me as you wish."
"Three times, does it count from this time?"
"I have already lost once before, so this is the second time."
No... This girl is too upright!
This is not a mercenary, there is no one as serious as her among the Imperial Knights!
"Well, the last time can actually not be counted..."
"I have lost before, and I will never make any excuses for my lack of strength."
- After hearing the other party's firm words, Aarons immediately adjusted his attitude.
To such an upright and resolute person, any modesty on my part would only be an insult.
So I just need to show her the power I have and defeat her in the way she wants.
"In that case, I will only send one person to fight you this time. If you can defeat her in an upright manner, you can take my life."
"Thank you very much."
"...Zhu Ying, I leave it to you."
After receiving the order, the petite heterogeneous maid nodded obediently, then dragged the huge battle axe and the terrifying cannon barrel to the front of Aarons.
"Oh, by the way... may I ask your name, young lady?"
"I am just a mercenary... If the Marquis wins this battle, I will definitely report my name."
After watching the other party slowly pull out the long sword at his waist with his left hand and take off the spear on his back with his right hand, Aarons no longer bothered about the other party's identity.
Standing behind Zhu Ying, he activated his own ability at the same time, allowing his consciousness to quickly synchronize with the alien creation.
[I want to verify a new idea. You don't have to follow my instructions during the battle, just make your own judgment. ]
[Received. Start accepting information sharing. ]
[Don't kill her, but find a way to destroy the mask on her face - that's all my orders. ]
Although the opponent is likely to use some unpredictable skills, Aarons will no longer be surprised this time.
"Then... let's start!"
After loudly announcing the start of the battle, the petite maid holding a huge battle axe in one hand immediately rushed towards her opponent.
Her opponent crossed the long sword and spear in his hands, posing a steady posture as immovable as a mountain.
"Be careful! If you take the attack head-on, you'll be at a disadvantage!"
"...Thank you for your reminder!"
After confirming that the battle had begun, Aarons took the initiative to step back a few steps and at the same time reached out to stop the guards who were running out of the base and were about to come to support the battle.
"Others are not allowed to interfere! This is... a fair duel!"
