Reckless Through The New World

Chapter 242: sequel to assassination

The assassination on a mountain road not far from the city of Leyton did not affect Thrace's war of aggression against Leyton. If there is any influence, it is that the Thracian king Richard executed a group of guards, and he has become more cautious about travel since then. In the subsequent wars, he never led troops to expedition in person.

In fact, this has greatly changed history. According to history, Richard Thrace, the "Lion of Thrace", who was later known as the Emperor of Thrace I, was an emperor who was keen to drive himself. The several wars that Thrace experienced were all led by him and personally served as the supreme commander. He even set foot on the battlefield three times, which can be described as first-class bravery.

But now, those stories of bravery are gone.

Perhaps later generations of bards would say, when talking about the Thracian emperor, "This man has ambition and ability, but he lacks a bit of guts." Or something like that.

However, that is for the future.

Now, there is another problem.

"Panda... What are you thinking?" Inside the castle restaurant, Wumian looked at the panda who was eating and drinking after being resurrected, and asked in puzzlement, "It's impossible for you not to know that Emperor Richard is surrounded by the Frost Sword Saint guard. Why are you still looking for death?"

This question puzzled him for a long time. From the very beginning of the establishment of the Thracian Kingdom, the Sword Saint of Frost Ice had been guarding the kings of all dynasties. It was not until the legendary battle of the King of Trela ​​in the future that he was injured because of his injuries. He had to stay in Thrace to recuperate, ending his nearly two-hundred-year-old **** career.

At this point in time, he must be guarding Richard Thrace without leaving an inch. With his escort, let alone Panda, even if the traversers come together, it is impossible to kill Richard - Frost Sword Saint is not a fool. Although he is outnumbered, he can escape with Richard. .

The panda must know this, so why would he do such a meaningless thing?

Panda put down the tableware and smiled.

"Many times, we do a thing, not necessarily for success, maybe more to show attitude." He said, "I don't know if you can understand, but in my opinion, 'attitude' is actually more than 'result' more important."

"how do I say this?"

"You know, I'm a martial artist." Panda said, "For someone like me, how do you think we should live?"

"Practice hard every day, and then want to participate in the competition to win the championship?" Wu Mian asked.

Panda smiled and shook his head: "That's a matter of professional fighters. I belong to a quasi-professional class, and may be close to others' level in terms of training intensity, but the content of actual combat training is far behind. If I go on stage to compete with those professionals The players competed, and it is estimated that in the first round, they could still play decently, but from the second round, they were beaten from one side to the other."

Wu Mian was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know much about the martial arts circle.

After a few seconds, he asked, "So...is it the pursuit of longevity?"

"Prolonging longevity?" Panda laughed dumbly. "Practicing martial arts is almost the opposite of prolonging life. Among the martial arts masters who can fight, the percentage of longevity stars is relatively low among people with the same living standard. This is actually the same as many sports."

So Wu Mian shook his head, he really didn't understand why.

"Actually, there is only one thing we pursue, that is to become stronger." Panda said, "It's great to be stronger than others, but even if we can't be stronger than others, it's okay to be stronger than our past self."

"This is our attitude. With this attitude as the support, we can endure those hard training and become stronger little by little." Panda said, "Without this attitude, most martial arts practitioners will not be able to survive. ."

"But what does this have to do with your assassination of Richard?" Wu Mian asked.

"It is through this incident that I showed Richard an attitude - in this world, there are many people who want to assassinate him and have the ability to threaten him, and many of them are willing to implement it."

"What's the point of this?" Wu Mian asked, "You can't kill him horizontally or vertically."

"No, it's enough to make him feel threatened," Panda said. "It's better to threaten him than not to threaten him at all."

He paused, then added: "And...I always feel ashamed to see James if I don't do something."

Speaking of James, Wusian was also silent.

After a few seconds, he sighed, nodded and said: "You are right, since we have the opportunity to assassinate Richard, we should do something. We have an unshirkable responsibility for this catastrophe of the Edward family. , If I don't do something, even I can't feel at ease."

"Actually... if we hadn't been blinded by millions of dollars, we should have thought of the possible danger." Panda sighed, "Looking back now, I myself wonder why at that time my mind was full of only Thinking about how to protect the money, but not thinking about why it is risky to make it."

"Me too, everyone is the same." WuMian also sighed, "We are all fascinated by this huge sum of money!"

He thought for a while, then said, "It's not just us, James himself, and even Richard, aren't they fascinated by the money? James could have had better options, such as taking the initiative. Donate to the king, or spend a sum of money to find a big noble to marry, although I can't say that it will definitely solve the problem, but at least it can delay the time. The king also has a better choice, such as making some promises to James, Or simply arrange a marriage for him... Anyway, the Edward family is a side branch of the royal family, and it will not affect the marriage."

"Everyone is dizzy!"

"Yeah... Everyone is dizzy..." Wu Mian said with a wry smile, "Fortunately, we still kept the bottom line of being a human being, and didn't have the idea of ​​taking James' own share of money. Binglin and I handed over the money to us. When he was there, he was first stunned, then relieved, and then looked at the pile of gold coins and cried."

Panda was silent. Although he couldn't understand James' mood, he could feel how sad the scene was.

"You did the right thing!" Wu Mian sighed again, and then said seriously, "Richard, we should have nothing to do with him! Anyway, Thrace is hostile to us, and his cruel style It is also doomed that we cannot reconcile. In this case, there is nothing wrong with assassinating him every once in a while!"

Panda smiled: "I think so too. Anyway, for gathering intelligence or something, two people are actually enough. The characters of the old driver (Harley) and I are not really suitable for this, so it is better to seize the opportunity to scare the rationale. Chad, it's a little bit of a bad breath!"

That afternoon, Anthony found James, who goes by the pseudonym Harry, and told him about it.

"Our people launched an assassination attempt on Richard," he said, "but this guy was protected by the Frozen Juggernaut, and it didn't work."

Harry's body vibrated violently, and then said, "If there is another action, please call me to participate!"

"If you are sure, we will definitely not let you miss the opportunity for revenge." Anthony said, "But until then, you should feel at ease as an instructor."

"I will do my best and do my best!"
