Chapter 1121, Deciding Fate
Before Meggo pulled out the gold coin in his sleeve, Ren Xiaosu had never seen the Wizard Kingdom currency because he didn’t need it.
In some mythological stories, the word that the coin represented was: fate.
It wasn’t that the coins were so special, but people used to use them to decide their fate.
For example, flipping a coin to decide whether one goes left or right, for example, flipping a coin to decide whether one eats a late-night snack or not, for example, flipping a coin to decide whether one is a good person or a bad person, it’s all in the mind.
The tossed coin will make a clear and pleasant sound as it spins in the air, and when it falls back down, some destinies are already predetermined.
Ren Xiaosu holding that gold coin smiled without saying a word, so the person he was looking for, are on this coin.
Coincidence this is not?
He used his thumb to flick the coin up high, the golden coin glittered under the campfire, and the avatars of Tudor and Norman kept alternating in the midst of this glow.
When it reached the highest point it began to slow down, then flipped and fell downward, the coin that represented fate returned to Ren Xiaosu’s hand.
Meigo curiously said, “What are you doing?”
“Using the coin to decide fate,” Ren Xiaosu replied with a smile.
“Don’t believe that,” Meigo said casually, “How can you use coins to decide your own fate?”
Ren Xiaosu spread out his hand with the head of the Tudor lord facing upwards, and he said with a smile, “I’m not flipping a coin to see my own fate.”
Meiguo hesitated for a moment and asked, “Is that ……?”
Ren Xiaosu put the gold coin back into Meggo’s hand, “Use it to decide someone else’s fate.”
In the swaying and shaking of the campfire, Meigo suddenly felt that at this moment Ren Xiaosu’s aura and tone carried a dominance he had never seen before.
In fact the currencies that Ren Xiaosu had seen were all imprinted with people who had passed away, for example, the Qing Clan’s currency was Qing Zhen’s great-grandfather, and the Northwest Currency was the fourth-generation commander of the Northwest Army, and very few of them imprinted people who were still alive on them.
So this behavior of the Sorcerer Kingdom to use the portrait of a living person as a coin avatar really surprised Ren Xiaosu a bit ah.
But it didn’t matter, it was fine for him to turn these two people into the departed.
In terms of the fundamental goal of this westward journey to the Sorcerer Kingdom, Ren Xiaosu was to execute his own Daxing Northwest 3.0 plan.
Then what exactly is the Daxing Northwest 3.0 plan? Of course, it is to enhance the core competitiveness of the Great Northwest on the one hand, and on the other hand, to solve the hidden dangers here in the Sorcerer Kingdom once and for all.
Ren Xiaosu had a deep conversation with P5092, and P5092 said that sooner or later, there would be a war between the Northwest and the Wang Clan.
Although the Wang Clan had now unified the Central Plains and accomplished a series of seemingly unachievable feats, the name Wang Shengzhi would inevitably go down in history because of this.
But Wang Shengzhi’s ideals would not stop there.
Therefore, if Ren Xiaosu and the others wanted the Northwest to gain more chances of victory in future wars, then they must first resolve the possibility of being attacked from the belly.
Right now, it seemed that the Sorcerer Kingdom had no intention of invading the Northwest in the near future, but there were no absolutes in this world, what if the Wang Clan sent an emissary to the Sorcerer Kingdom.
Given Wang’s past tactics, this was a very possible thing.
There was even another possibility: the Wang Clan’s emissary, perhaps, was already in the Sorcerer Kingdom.
Then, Ren Xiaosu would have to do everything he could to destroy the Sorcerer Kingdom’s ability to participate in the war when he came to the Sorcerer Kingdom this time.
That night, the calmest P5092 had said to Ren Xiaosu, “Ren Xiaosu, when you return to the Northwest you will no longer be that stray teenager who can only go with the flow, Commander Zhang has already begun to hand over the destiny of the Northwest to you, and the nearly ten million people of the Northwest are also looking forward to you. Perhaps the past days where you only had to think about what you were going to eat for brunch and lunch every day were happy and relaxing, and perhaps going to the market stalls with Miss Xiaogun was also very pleasant, but that kind of destiny no longer belongs to you, you are the next leader of the Northwest’s predestined destiny, and you should first figure out your own responsibilities.”
The ever-calm P5092 said, “I’m not saying this to teach you anything as a subordinate, but it’s clear to me that every vein, every drop of blood in your veins is ready for it. Don’t reject it, accept it.”
And so, Ren Xiaosu went alone to Fortress 178 the next day, accepting the expectations and responsibilities of everyone in the Northwest.
He had come to the Sorcerer’s Kingdom, fundamentally to go on a killing spree, and those great sorcerers were not innocent, as they still bore the blood debt of more than 200,000 British spirits from Fortress 178.
Of course, if there was a candidate here who could greatly prosper the Northwest, Ren Xiaosu wouldn’t miss it.
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu smiled at Meigo, “Do you know what Da Xing Northwest means?”
Mei Ge froze for a moment, “Da Xing Northwest? Never heard of it.”
“It’s okay, you’ll know.”
……
In the middle of the night, someone suddenly lifted the curtain in the carriage where the little witch An An was in, and a silhouette that had changed into night clothes flashed out of the carriage, sneaking all the way over in the direction that the bandits had previously withdrawn from.
When she arrived at the battlefield, she could only see a pile of slowly melting ice ballast and flesh and blood.
As Ann circled around the battlefield, she glanced at the secret spell formation next to the bounty hunter’s corpse, her heart wondering in disbelief.
Then she circled around again, and after realizing that there was nothing else out of the ordinary in the entire battlefield, she turned around and dived back into the carriage.
The woman had been waiting for An An, and when she saw An An return she asked, “Did you find anything?”
“Those bandits should have been instructed to come here, the instructor was a bounty hunter from a big family, this person silenced all the remaining bandits.”
An An continued, “Only the mantis is catching the cicada and the yellow bird is in the back, this bounty hunter was also killed, and there are still traces of blood succession summoning at the scene. This is rather strange, the bounty hunters are all fringe characters of the wizard family, how could they have the secret art of blood succession summoning on them? This secret technique must be a first blood relative to ‘receive the technique’ ah.”
The woman thought for a moment and said, “Bounty hunters are usually fringe characters of wizard families, but this is not absolute, some bounty hunters are actually not outsiders, but some illegitimate children. As you know, some great sorcerers have hundreds of heirs, so it’s normal to have illegitimate children. In the rules of the sorcerer organization, illegitimate children can’t get the sorcerer’s inheritance, so the only way is to abandon the blood relationship and become the family’s bounty hunter. Of course, this kind of bastard is usually quite beloved by the great sorcerer, or else he wouldn’t have been specifically taught sorcery.”
“There’s still such a thing, so a certain great wizard is afraid that he’s going to be heartbroken,” Ann gloated, “Moreover, I suspect that this is a bounty hunter sent by the Tudor family, because the temperature at the scene is on the low side, and there’s still a large amount of ice ballast.”
“The Tudors?” the woman mused, “Who do you think they’re after?”
“Mego,” Ann said with certainty, “Ren Xiaosu had asked the night he came after me if I was sent by the Tudors!”
“That would be having this same enemy as us,” the woman smiled, “Maybe the other side has some other surprises in store for us.”
