Chapter 38: Knight
One of the tricks.In the huge and vast reading materials, mages need precise positioning and consulting capabilities, so many schools of memory have been developed.Such techniques are widely promoted, and almost every mage has a unique memory technique.
After rummaging through her memory for a while, Idni found her goal.The City of Heroes, a city with a long history dating back thousands of years, is also a city of war. Because of its location, it is easy to be selected as a place for foreign invasion. It has been destroyed and rebuilt several times by war , and of course changed names several times.
Idney stroked that spot on the map.As the end point, the red dot that stopped at the end was so hard that it almost penetrated the entire parchment.What was Lauren thinking when he drew this point?Is she really as calm as she appears to be?Idney suppressed all the doubts, then smiled and said to Lauren: "I think what you said is right. Now we should go to the Northern Continent as soon as possible to know the truth."
Now that the direction of progress and the ultimate goal have been determined, the next step is to hurry on the road.After a comprehensive comparison, Lauren decided to go from the Eastern Continent, then take the airship directly to the Central Continent, and then go to the Northern Continent from the Central Continent.On the other hand, Yidni gave full play to her advantages in the Southern Continent. She used the name of the academy to search for the airship flights in the nearest city, and then forcibly boarded the airship chartered by the big businessman.
There are almost no passages between the Southern Continent and the Central Continent. On the contrary, many merchants from the Eastern Continent travel between the two regardless of the danger, acting as a lubricant for both parties, and at the same time earning huge amounts of gold coins.Since the Goddess of Darkness came to power and issued a series of reforms, these merchants who originally had to risk their lives have gradually become stable. There is a popular trend of hiring dark elves with pride.
It's just that in the southern continent, even the dark elves need to avoid the graduates of the Dark Academy by three points.As for the unlucky employer who hired the dark elves, the big businessman Edward Johnson, he can only use his fat face to smile desperately, for fear that the three graduates who are said to be from the dark academy in front of him will draw his soul out Act as a plaything.
"My lords, please ask me if you need anything." Edward rubbed his palms, pushed away the maid who brought tea, and brought the tea to Idni himself, nodding and bowing.
Idney glanced at the sweat on the other party's cheek, and then said with a smirk: "Let the professional do it. We just borrow your airboat, I don't think you will mind."
"Yes, of course not." Edward said while wiping the sweat off his face, and moved away wisely.
"En." Idni nodded, and she accepted the other party's filial piety with peace of mind.Lauren, on the other hand, looked at the passing clouds outside, then turned around and asked, "I have some questions, I hope Mr. Johnson can answer them truthfully."
Edward looked curiously at Lauren who had been standing beside Idni.When he first met Luo Lun, he thought that Luo Lun was the leader of the three, but he quickly overturned this idea, thinking that Luo Lun was just an attendant beside the mage.But now it seems that maybe he still guessed wrong.This woman has black hair and a face as pale as jade, and looks a little... inhuman.This made Edward take a step back with some fear, and then said: "Excuse me, Ma'am, I will tell you what I know."
"How far has Lun Sa's plague of the undead reached?"
"...According to reliable news, a natural disaster of undead that has not been seen for hundreds of years did occur in Lunsha. I heard that somewhere in the northern continent, there is a natural underworld. It will give birth to undead. Some people say it is The land of creation left by the goddess of the dark moon..." Edward revealed a face of gossip, and lowered his voice a little.
"Please, answer my question." Lauren interrupted Edward's words.
A bit of pity appeared on the fat businessman's face, but he quickly restrained his emotions because of fear. He cleared his throat and said, "Actually, the disaster is not serious. I heard that there is only one city and several The village suffered. It was only because Lunza’s soldiers were deployed in large numbers to support the orc disaster of the Holy Empire, so the troops were overwhelmed. According to my sources, King Lunza will personally lead the team to conquer the undead, and at the same time the whole territory crusade order was issued After going out, the king, in the name of the Goddess of Light, recruited warriors from all over the world to fight together." He rubbed his hands again, smiled, and said, "I heard that such disasters always happened regularly in the past, and the king personally led the team, I believe this battle will end soon."
Lauren didn't say anything, just glanced at Idney, and Idney drove Edward away knowingly.As soon as Edward left, Lauren's expression darkened completely: "The undead in the Northern Continent can never be spawned. I destroyed that place myself, and it will never be revived again. This battle is also impossible. It's over easily." She looked at Idney and said, "This is a battle of the gods, and this is where the board is."
The author has something to say: There is a foreshadowing in this chapter~~~
72 Recruit Hank
Northern Continent·Bern Outer Forest
It was autumn now, and the winter wheat that had matured in summer had just been harvested, and the cold wind had blown ahead of schedule on the northern continent.Although this is probably not a cold season for people who live in the northern continent all year round, hunters still wear vests, but thick fur is already wrapped around their necks.Hank is such a young Northern Continent hunter. His brother joined Lunsha's reserve army a year ago, but now, with insufficient troops, his brother has been transferred to the forefront of the battlefield.And he, who was supposed to follow the ancient Lunsa tradition, the youngest child guarding his parents and family property, had to be forcibly recruited and joined the army.
There are many other people who have had the same experience as him, so it's nothing to complain about.What's more, their enemies are not human beings like them but orcs and undead.For the invasion of alien races, young people have a sense of honor and a sense of mission in their hearts, which makes them accept this battle much higher.Even if it takes a long time to conceal and investigate like this, they have no complaints.
Outside the city of Bern is a lush virgin forest. As a native hunter, Hank is quite familiar with this place. In the entire scouting team, he is just a small recruit who was sent by the captain to take charge of the forest along with many of his brothers. Forest alert and reconnaissance.It is said that the undead are very close to the city of Bern, which makes the city owner have to be more vigilant. Even such daily patrols are fully armed, and no one dares to be careless.
Hank sniffed lightly, and he walked to a shallow pit and squatted down.Years of hunting told him that this place was a bit strange, he frowned and carefully peeled off the floating soil with a knife, then grabbed the soil below, put it on his nose and smelled it.
It was a rotten smell mixed with the stench of corpses.
Hank jumped up all of a sudden, the forest contained a strong breath of life, and the natural and undead were at odds. Where the undead walked, the struggle between life and death was as fierce as water drops into oil.Usually, the walking of the undead will cause the trees to wither, and the strong breath of life in the forest will also make the undead feel uncomfortable.Therefore, cities in the Northern Continent tend to plant dense forests around the city. This is a long-standing tradition that has been maintained until now.But even though the rotten smell is so clear, there is nothing abnormal in the forest.
Although it's not hot at all in the Northern Continent, Hank still feels wet on his neck.For a moment, he almost forgot how the officer taught him how to deal with it, but there was a rustling sound behind him, Hank turned his head, and the big tree he was familiar with was rapidly changing color, and the huge root system suddenly protruded from the ground , The dust on the ground and the trees on the side were blown away together.Immediately afterwards, the living "tree man" turned around, revealing scarlet eyes and a big mouth full of fishy smell.
Hank let out a horrified howl, perhaps because he was too panicked, he also remembered what the instructor said in a flash.While running desperately, he raised the horn that was pulled out hastily and hung around his neck, and blew it desperately.
The horn is specially made, and a magic circle is engraved inside it by the magic pattern master, which can penetrate very far.This has played an important role many times in the battles of Lunza history.Even though the production value of the magic pattern horn is extremely high, Lun Sa still insists on distributing it to every scout, because their enemies are often not humans who need the help of equipment.Lunsha's scouts are in a race against time to get the news out before they die.
The root system of the treant pulled the clods of soil. Trees originally had huge root systems, but now they broke through the ground, bringing about roaring vibrations and loud noises.Hank felt the ground tremble, and he felt the old tales he had only heard at his parents' fireside reappear.Dark clouds will cover the entire sky as the undead invade, and the rotting undead will drag passers-by by their ankles, hang them up and eat them...
Hank's foot slipped suddenly, he let out a loud cry, and rolled down the slope with his head in his arms.Perhaps by luck, he just dodged a vine that was thrown over him.He shouted: "Bless the Goddess of Light!!" But the whole person kept rolling down, and finally he could only lie on the ground in embarrassment, his mouth was filled with mud.
And there was no sound behind him.He pissed and pissed the mud out of his mouth several times, but the smell of the mud did not dissipate.Hank suddenly realized something, he turned his head slowly, the tree man's rotten and smelly face was almost close to him.Hank's teeth began to chatter uncontrollably, he felt his whole body twitching, tears were almost frightened by the approaching death.
Who will come to rescue him?Probably no one will come.The only luck is that he spread the news in time...
The tree man opened his mouth wide and bit down on Hank, and Hank closed his eyes in fright.
At that moment, a small thing rolled by the tree man's legs.It raised the little thing curiously.
And Hank just felt a strong grab on his neckline and pulled him back.He nearly screamed, and a hand reached over his mouth.These hands are warm, and although they are unusually large, they are definitely not weird things like orcs or undead.
It's human!He is saved!Recruit Hank could hardly contain his joy.There was a sudden explosion, and the tree man's arm was shattered into pieces, and thick liquid splashed up, dousing Hank's face before he had time to cheer.At this time, a small human gradually appeared, stood behind the tree man and shouted: "Hey! You big fool, come on! Your opponent is here, do you want to try another one?" The tree man recognized that the small thing thrown up and down in the opponent's hand was the thing that exploded his arm just now, so he immediately rushed towards the human being.
"Okay, it's all right." Just as Hank was watching intently how the human was able to attack and kill the tree man with ease, a voice came from behind him.
Hank turned his head, and it was a red-haired, unusually tall female swordsman.There was a two-handed sword hanging behind her, and Hank secretly looked at it, thinking that it was absolutely impossible for him to swing such a heavy thing.Inexplicable awe rose in his heart, he straightened his body hastily, and then bowed to the female swordsman: "Thank you for saving my life."
The female swordsman looked warm, glanced at Hank, and smiled at him: "You did a good job. It was your horn that attracted us. You saved yourself."
The female swordsman's words made the recruit a little shy. He recalled how embarrassed he was before, but due to his duties, he still asked: "I am Hank, a recruit from Berne, and I am a scout in charge of patrolling. Are you... ?”
"We are mercenaries in response to the conscription order from all over the country." The female swordsman replied, her facial features had the roughness of a northerner, and she would look very serious when she was not smiling.She shook out a crumpled conscription order from her pocket, and said, "We just arrived in Bern today and got the signature and seal of the city lord...here, here it is."
Hank looked at the place pointed by the female swordsman. The seal was very new, and it was the lion heart seal of Berne.
"Do you know how to read? Here is our identity signature." The female swordsman pointed to the other side of the document.
"Yes, yes, we have short-term training." Hank straightened up hastily and replied.He frowned and carefully identified the cursive writing on it, which was different from the writing he was familiar with, and he couldn't recognize it very well, but in short, it was very beautiful, "Hmm... let me see , Casey...well, the fourth-level two-handed swordsman, um...belonging to...belonging to...currently serving as...holding..." Hank realized that he didn't know many words, and he was sweating profusely. I also stuttered more and more.
"Kathy Blade Fist, a fourth-level two-handed swordsman, belongs to the Eastern Continent Mercenary Branch. He is currently serving as the forward leader of the third mercenary support team. The captain is Lauren Reigns. May the Goddess of Light always protect us. "The female swordsman calmly read the words written on that piece of paper.
Hank looked at the female swordsman in surprise, he suddenly realized something, pulled out the short blade on his waist, looked at the female swordsman, and asked warily, "Are you an orc?"
"She's a tiefling." The brisk words came from Arnold, who ended the life of the tree man. He turned the dagger in his hand, walked over, and pressed Hank's blade, "Hey, boy, be careful. Don't you Are you used to pointing the blade at your savior?"
"Yeah, but she has an orc surname!" Hank yelled at Arno.
"Look, I asked you to change your name a long time ago." Arnold shook his head at Casey.
"My family name and my beliefs are my honor," Kathy replied, spreading her arms out to Hank. "I grew up in the Eastern Continent, and never belonged to a Northern Continental clan. Take it easy, Bladefist Clan." I am the only one in this world, and they have no way to participate in the battle against the Northern Continent. And I, representing my other half of human blood, fight for mankind.”
Seeing Hank's hesitation, Arnold hurriedly added: "The document is real. Even if you don't trust us, you should trust the professionalism of your lord and the mercenary union." He saw Hank It looked like he was moving, so he pressed it on the blade, smiled at him, and pressed down a little bit, "Okay, young man, you are very responsible and brave. But now, we should rush back in time to inform other People. We don't know yet if the rest of your companions were as lucky as you or unlucky enough to end up in the belly of these rotting treants."
Mentioning his companion, Hank immediately came to his senses. Although he was still worried about Casey, as Arnold said, it would be better to rush back in time and convey the precious information than to worry about this issue now.He didn't know how far his horn could travel, and he didn't know if his companion was still alive. He even regretted why he didn't run back to the city in time just now.
At this time, one after another, horns sounded suddenly.Hank looked around, panicked on his young face: "What's going on? Did they all encounter... that kind of monster?"
"It seems so." Kathy frowned and listened for a while. She watched Hank start to tremble unconsciously, so she pressed his head and gave him a relieved smile. "But you don't have to worry. , because our captain is here too.”
The author has something to say:
Changed the way of writing to highlight Uncle Luo Lun...not...There are more than two protagonists involved in this battle and this story, I also want to express the ordinary people...It is not to highlight the awesomeness of Uncle Luo Lun ,real! ! !
73 Recruits from Hero City
It took only a few minutes for the horn to sound, and the roar followed.Casey glanced at Hank who was still in a daze and said, "Okay, recruit, your mission has been completed, now go back to Bern."
After she finished speaking, she ignored Hank and just met Arnold who was walking towards her.Throwing the small thing in his hand, the thief said, "How do we go now? This thing is really useful."
"Stop playing, this thing is very expensive." Casey replied with some helplessness, she twitched her nose.Half-orc blood gave her a sense of smell far superior to that of a human.She pointed in a direction casually and said, "Over there, the smell of goblin bombs and undead is the strongest." Arnold always had no doubts about Casey's answer, he put the goblin bomb back in his pocket, and was about to When he left, he turned his head and saw Hank still standing there blankly.
"Hey, why don't you leave? The undead are not something you recruits can defeat."
"I...I can't go! I want to see my friends too." Hank grabbed his hem nervously, bent down and said, "Please take me, this is my country, I, I can protect it too!"
Casey and Arnold looked at each other, Casey snorted softly, and strode forward.A Nuo smiled helplessly, and said, "If you are not afraid of death, follow along. Let me tell you first, I have completed the captain's explanation, so we will not guarantee your life in the next journey."
"It's okay..." Hank wanted to say something, but Arnold had already turned and left, so Hank had to follow in a hurry.
The forest is no longer a place he is familiar with. I don’t know when, the corrupted treants have quietly invaded this forest. Flame was originally the best way to deal with these treants, but so many people are in the forest , and no one dared to start a fire, so as not to get burned.Along the way, the battle situation can be said to be tragic. Large sections of trees were uprooted and swept out by the treants, and the horns were still humming one after another.Some half-grown children who had just joined the army were unable to dodge in time, and were crushed underneath, bleeding and crying.
"God of Light..." Hank said in a low voice.
"Everyone is ready! Drive them to the designated place!" Immediately after a rattling sound sounded, a man's voice shouted. His voice was obviously enhanced by the amplification magic, and it quickly spread to all in people's ears.
"Follow me!" Then, the brightly colored flag was set up, and Hank saw a dwarf with a big rough beard, and a mountain antelope under him.This kind of sheep is good at jumping, about the height of an adult, covered with thick and long wool, very suitable for running in dense and cold woods.The dwarf bent his body and roared to drive the antelope forward. Just before the collision, his body glowed golden, and the golden light enveloped him and the alpine antelope, looking invincible, knocking the tree man back. a few steps.
"Very good! Keep going!"
Seeing the blow succeed, the dwarf shouted.And there was echoing cheers from all around, and dozens of people armed with various weapons emerged, some of them even carried Hank's colleagues behind their backs.At this time, some people also spotted Casey and Arnold, and waved to them.This is probably the most passionate experience Hank has had since joining the army. These people have different skin colors, dressing habits, and men and women are also different, but their eyes are equally friendly and firm, and they will even help those useless recruits them.
Hank couldn't help but also grabbed his weapon, wanting to rush towards the tree people like them.
"Hey, kid, watch from behind." A man as strong as a bear stretched out his hand, picked up Hank by the collar, and threw him behind him, "Look at the strength of the third mercenary team obediently." .”
The tree people were quickly driven to an artificially emptied space. In fact, it didn't take too much time. Some tree people were attracted directly after being attracted by a blow.If you want to fight purely with flesh and blood to defeat these treants one by one, it will take a lot of energy, but it is not difficult to attract firepower like this.
"Captain, we are ready!" The same dwarf shouted loudly.
Just when his voice just fell.The voice of the mage's incantation sounded: "ShulBahDun..." This is not a short incantation, but the caster's speech speed did not stop at all, and it seemed to be easy and rhythmic.Although the woman's voice weakens that sense of heaviness, it increases the feeling of mystery and sacredness.
As a Northlander, Hank quickly felt the discomfort and heat. He noticed the mage's intentions, and couldn't help but change his face, shouting: "This is in the forest..."
"Don't talk, just watch." A person pressed Hank's head.
Hank had to swallow his words in his stomach.
Just as Hank thought, those overly active fire elements in the air were gathered, and then, the wind swirled, forming a huge pillar of pure fire like a tornado.This is different from the phenomenon naturally formed in nature. The fire elementals are driven by the mage, attacking the tree man like crazy.Due to the natural confrontation and weakening of the fire spells and the treants, even if they had been corrupted into creatures that could not feel pain, the soul-burning attack still made the treants start running around.
At this moment, a block of stone walls rose from the ground, blocking the tree man's path.Hank's eyes widened in surprise. He has never seen a mage before, and he couldn't help feeling: "You have so many mages..."
"Mage? Those guys have been recruited to the front line a long time ago. We only have one mage." The big man at the side obviously relaxed. He stuck his sword on the ground with a smug smile on his face, " There's only one mage, and she's a beautiful woman. You'll see it later."
Can a mage use two spells at the same time?Hank didn't quite understand it, but that didn't stop his admiration from rising.
The ever-strengthening earth wall and fire pillar made the tree people scream in pain, but no one was moved by it. Everyone watched silently until the earth wall fell, and the flame lost its target and began to dissipate.These fire elementals were violent and disorderly. After losing their target, they gathered together and began to pounce on the surrounding forest.
"Lauren."
The mage's voice that Hank had heard before shouted softly.Then, the fire elements seemed to be twisted together by something, and began to gather in one direction.This was a strange sight that Hank had never seen before. These flames ignited by the mage burned out of thin air, bringing a burning sensation that did not belong to the Northland. They were pulled into a long rope and finally fell into the palm of a person's raised hand.As if it were a miracle, the fire elementals scrambled to be pulled, and finally annihilated in the palm of that thin man.
"Are you dumbfounded? Haha, I was also dumbfounded when I saw it for the first time. She is obviously a knight who doesn't use any magic." The big man shook his head, then reached out and pressed Hank, saying, "That's our captain."
"Captain!" While speaking, someone rushed over and ran to Lauren's side.Lauren nodded at him, and then rushed back and said, "Patia, I'll leave the purification to you later."
"Yes, yes, isn't it like this every time?" Following the voice, more and more blond women came out. She was wearing a priest's robe, and with the sound of chanting in a low voice, the power of light fell to the ground profusely and it fell on all the people.
Hank felt that the pores of his whole body were stretched. He sharply saw a small sapling emerge from the place where the corruption was the worst, that is, the place where the tree people died collectively.This is simply a miracle!Hank couldn't help but admire the kindness of the Goddess of Light.
And Idni, who was hiding in the crowd, opened her hood, took a few steps forward, looked at the sapling, and then shouted to Partia: "Okay, save some magic power, don't waste it."
"Did I waste it?" The former Holy Maiden of Light couldn't help snorting, "You even gave birth to a sapling to see if the purification was complete. Who is wasting magic power?"
It turned out that the sapling was born.Hank couldn't help thinking.
"Since your magic power is enough, then you can walk around the forest to see where it is not purified, so just do it." The mage snorted softly.
Patiya clearly showed her dissatisfaction, but she didn't say anything else, she just hummed softly a few times, and pulled the alpine antelope aside to climb up.
"Miss Patia! Please let us protect you!" Immediately afterwards, several men who appeared to be suitors rushed out and followed Patia.Hank saw sharply that several other women followed.
He was a little confused, but then he became nervous again, because the captain named Lauren walked towards them.
"Captain." The big man immediately greeted him and said, "The captain is very mighty! It's simply amazing."
"You're the one who talks a lot." Lauren glanced at him, then turned his head away, waited for Idney to come to her side, then took her hand, and said to the big man, "The things here are almost over. It's over, we should go back and return."
The big man responded a few times, and seeing Hank staring intently at Lauren's back, he couldn't help laughing a few times, and said, "Did you take a fancy to our captain? Tell you, although she is pretty, she is absolutely She has killed a lot of people, even I who have killed a lot of people will feel fear when they see her."
"No, it's not," Hank replied, blushing, and he whispered, "I just think she looks familiar, but I don't remember where I saw her."
"Familiar?" The big man didn't say anything, but Edney turned her head, looked Hank up and down, and asked, "Where are you from?"
Seeing the powerful and beautiful mage asking himself, the young man blushed with excitement, he stammered and replied: "Return, Master Mage, I am from the city of Heroic Spirits. I came to live in Berne with my parents when I was young."
"Heroic Spirit City..." Idni looked at the child and wanted to say something more, but Lauren's gentle voice echoed, "My dear contractor, why don't you leave?"
Idni hurriedly responded and turned her head, but Lauren's eyes did not look at Idni, but fell on the young man who was still full of admiration.This kind of look is definitely not the gentle and calm that Ideni is familiar with, nor is it the polite and alienated face of ordinary people.In an instant, the icy killing intent enveloped everyone like the cold wind from the North Continent, chilling everyone's hearts.
"Let's go." Lauren quickly looked away, she said softly, and turned her head again.She pulled Idni, and Idni had to quickly follow her footsteps, and then she heard Lauren's soft voice, "We are getting closer and closer to Redstone City, it's great."
This voice was obviously the warm tone that Idni remembered, but at the moment it was like a poisonous snake waking up from hibernation, with an uncomfortable venom.
The backs of the two gradually moved away. The big man in front touched the back of his head strangely, and looked at the young man who was also dazed but innocent. Try to stay as far away from our captain as possible." He didn't know why he felt the killing intent at that moment, but for mercenaries, killing may be justified or unreasonable, it doesn't matter.
But that woman has always been a fair and open character, he thought he should believe that the other party would not kill people for no reason, but out of some caution, he still reminded the young man.
The author has something to say:
Lauren's blackening is imminent, everyone, let's do it and cherish it, well, here is the team structure of Lauren's past:
Composition: 320 six people in total
Sub-group: two (Albin: knight, transformed into a general of the underworld after death; Diana: mage, transformed into a banshee after death)
One head of the guard: 20 elite subordinates, all of them will be transformed into death knights after death
Three centurions:
One hundred and fifteen infantry, transformed into skeleton soldiers after undead, without self-awareness
One hundred cavalry, transformed into skeleton knights after undead, without self-awareness
Fifty mages, transformed into ghosts or banshees after undead, without autonomous consciousness
74 Past and Future
After dealing with the city lord of Berne, the group returned to the place specially prepared by the city lord for the mercenary team.When Lauren finished his routine lectures and announced his disbandment, he came to Idni's side.Together, they walked side by side in the city of the Northern Continent, enjoying the rare leisure time after the war.
"The winter wheat has been harvested, and last year's newly brewed beer should be out. The wheat that is abundant in the Northland tastes good, and the beer tastes better than other places." Lauren said to Idney.When they first entered the Northern Continent, they encountered the task of harvesting winter wheat, which was their first battle.The entire city was hit by a natural disaster of the undead, and everyone in the city who could run ran away, and those who couldn't run became a member of the army of undead.
Their army has just been established, and the task they receive is to escort a regular army to harvest the winter wheat that has been abandoned by the farmers.The dead can eat the living, but the living have to eat food.The Northern Continent is so cold, and the crops only mature once a year. It would be a pity if the wheat was abandoned like this.This is actually what the recruited mercenaries have done most since the Scourge of the Undead.The regular army does not believe in mercenaries driven by money, especially in a knight kingdom with a long history and tradition like Lunza.They regard sacrifice, kindness, and friendliness as virtues, and they always have a cold-eyed hostility towards mercenaries.
Idney nodded as she surveyed the city.This place is no different from other cities in the Northern Continent. The Northern Continent produces the hardest rock in the entire territory. The blue steel rocks are built into the largest square by craftsmen and piled up to form a thick city wall to block the cold wind and foreign enemies in the Northern Continent.Most of the northern mainland cities with a bit of spare money will do this.The people here are tall and strong, with light hair and skin color. Lauren's black hair is particularly conspicuous, and people often look at her quietly.
But Lauren never looked back, and she took Idney for a drink.The mage was supposed to refuse such a drink in order to stay awake at all times, but Idni would not refuse Lauren.As Lauren said, having a drink after the battle can relieve one's emotions to the greatest extent, and on the contrary can relieve oneself from the extreme excitement of the battle.
When it comes to fighting, Lauren is always right.
Edney thought.They talked a little bit and ate a little bit of bread. The city of Berne seemed to have sufficient food reserves, and there was still room to make relatively rich food. This was the most comfortable and best time they had eaten along the way.Idni finished the meal with gratitude, and tomorrow the whole team will go forward to the front line to join the king's army and complete the final goal of the third mercenary team.
How did things become like this?Edni looked at the burning flames in the hotel and thought.Obviously less than a month ago, they had just walked from the airship to the territory of the Eastern Continent.
Compared with the Southern Continent, which was filled with cheerful emotions, the Eastern Continent was more nervous.A considerable part of the Eastern Continent is not only connected to the Central Continent, but also partly connected to the Northern Continent.The news of the undead was spread by the fleeing people, coupled with the unified race, all countries in the Eastern Continent responded to the whole-territory conscription order initiated by Lun Sa.This time it was completely different from the last time the conscription order was made in a small way. The mercenary union came forward in person. They selected the right people, and then asked and lobbied the mercenaries when they delivered the tasks.
I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune, but Lauren, Idni, and Patia, who just registered as a mercenary, are all on the list.powerful force
After rummaging through her memory for a while, Idni found her goal.The City of Heroes, a city with a long history dating back thousands of years, is also a city of war. Because of its location, it is easy to be selected as a place for foreign invasion. It has been destroyed and rebuilt several times by war , and of course changed names several times.
Idney stroked that spot on the map.As the end point, the red dot that stopped at the end was so hard that it almost penetrated the entire parchment.What was Lauren thinking when he drew this point?Is she really as calm as she appears to be?Idney suppressed all the doubts, then smiled and said to Lauren: "I think what you said is right. Now we should go to the Northern Continent as soon as possible to know the truth."
Now that the direction of progress and the ultimate goal have been determined, the next step is to hurry on the road.After a comprehensive comparison, Lauren decided to go from the Eastern Continent, then take the airship directly to the Central Continent, and then go to the Northern Continent from the Central Continent.On the other hand, Yidni gave full play to her advantages in the Southern Continent. She used the name of the academy to search for the airship flights in the nearest city, and then forcibly boarded the airship chartered by the big businessman.
There are almost no passages between the Southern Continent and the Central Continent. On the contrary, many merchants from the Eastern Continent travel between the two regardless of the danger, acting as a lubricant for both parties, and at the same time earning huge amounts of gold coins.Since the Goddess of Darkness came to power and issued a series of reforms, these merchants who originally had to risk their lives have gradually become stable. There is a popular trend of hiring dark elves with pride.
It's just that in the southern continent, even the dark elves need to avoid the graduates of the Dark Academy by three points.As for the unlucky employer who hired the dark elves, the big businessman Edward Johnson, he can only use his fat face to smile desperately, for fear that the three graduates who are said to be from the dark academy in front of him will draw his soul out Act as a plaything.
"My lords, please ask me if you need anything." Edward rubbed his palms, pushed away the maid who brought tea, and brought the tea to Idni himself, nodding and bowing.
Idney glanced at the sweat on the other party's cheek, and then said with a smirk: "Let the professional do it. We just borrow your airboat, I don't think you will mind."
"Yes, of course not." Edward said while wiping the sweat off his face, and moved away wisely.
"En." Idni nodded, and she accepted the other party's filial piety with peace of mind.Lauren, on the other hand, looked at the passing clouds outside, then turned around and asked, "I have some questions, I hope Mr. Johnson can answer them truthfully."
Edward looked curiously at Lauren who had been standing beside Idni.When he first met Luo Lun, he thought that Luo Lun was the leader of the three, but he quickly overturned this idea, thinking that Luo Lun was just an attendant beside the mage.But now it seems that maybe he still guessed wrong.This woman has black hair and a face as pale as jade, and looks a little... inhuman.This made Edward take a step back with some fear, and then said: "Excuse me, Ma'am, I will tell you what I know."
"How far has Lun Sa's plague of the undead reached?"
"...According to reliable news, a natural disaster of undead that has not been seen for hundreds of years did occur in Lunsha. I heard that somewhere in the northern continent, there is a natural underworld. It will give birth to undead. Some people say it is The land of creation left by the goddess of the dark moon..." Edward revealed a face of gossip, and lowered his voice a little.
"Please, answer my question." Lauren interrupted Edward's words.
A bit of pity appeared on the fat businessman's face, but he quickly restrained his emotions because of fear. He cleared his throat and said, "Actually, the disaster is not serious. I heard that there is only one city and several The village suffered. It was only because Lunza’s soldiers were deployed in large numbers to support the orc disaster of the Holy Empire, so the troops were overwhelmed. According to my sources, King Lunza will personally lead the team to conquer the undead, and at the same time the whole territory crusade order was issued After going out, the king, in the name of the Goddess of Light, recruited warriors from all over the world to fight together." He rubbed his hands again, smiled, and said, "I heard that such disasters always happened regularly in the past, and the king personally led the team, I believe this battle will end soon."
Lauren didn't say anything, just glanced at Idney, and Idney drove Edward away knowingly.As soon as Edward left, Lauren's expression darkened completely: "The undead in the Northern Continent can never be spawned. I destroyed that place myself, and it will never be revived again. This battle is also impossible. It's over easily." She looked at Idney and said, "This is a battle of the gods, and this is where the board is."
The author has something to say: There is a foreshadowing in this chapter~~~
72 Recruit Hank
Northern Continent·Bern Outer Forest
It was autumn now, and the winter wheat that had matured in summer had just been harvested, and the cold wind had blown ahead of schedule on the northern continent.Although this is probably not a cold season for people who live in the northern continent all year round, hunters still wear vests, but thick fur is already wrapped around their necks.Hank is such a young Northern Continent hunter. His brother joined Lunsha's reserve army a year ago, but now, with insufficient troops, his brother has been transferred to the forefront of the battlefield.And he, who was supposed to follow the ancient Lunsa tradition, the youngest child guarding his parents and family property, had to be forcibly recruited and joined the army.
There are many other people who have had the same experience as him, so it's nothing to complain about.What's more, their enemies are not human beings like them but orcs and undead.For the invasion of alien races, young people have a sense of honor and a sense of mission in their hearts, which makes them accept this battle much higher.Even if it takes a long time to conceal and investigate like this, they have no complaints.
Outside the city of Bern is a lush virgin forest. As a native hunter, Hank is quite familiar with this place. In the entire scouting team, he is just a small recruit who was sent by the captain to take charge of the forest along with many of his brothers. Forest alert and reconnaissance.It is said that the undead are very close to the city of Bern, which makes the city owner have to be more vigilant. Even such daily patrols are fully armed, and no one dares to be careless.
Hank sniffed lightly, and he walked to a shallow pit and squatted down.Years of hunting told him that this place was a bit strange, he frowned and carefully peeled off the floating soil with a knife, then grabbed the soil below, put it on his nose and smelled it.
It was a rotten smell mixed with the stench of corpses.
Hank jumped up all of a sudden, the forest contained a strong breath of life, and the natural and undead were at odds. Where the undead walked, the struggle between life and death was as fierce as water drops into oil.Usually, the walking of the undead will cause the trees to wither, and the strong breath of life in the forest will also make the undead feel uncomfortable.Therefore, cities in the Northern Continent tend to plant dense forests around the city. This is a long-standing tradition that has been maintained until now.But even though the rotten smell is so clear, there is nothing abnormal in the forest.
Although it's not hot at all in the Northern Continent, Hank still feels wet on his neck.For a moment, he almost forgot how the officer taught him how to deal with it, but there was a rustling sound behind him, Hank turned his head, and the big tree he was familiar with was rapidly changing color, and the huge root system suddenly protruded from the ground , The dust on the ground and the trees on the side were blown away together.Immediately afterwards, the living "tree man" turned around, revealing scarlet eyes and a big mouth full of fishy smell.
Hank let out a horrified howl, perhaps because he was too panicked, he also remembered what the instructor said in a flash.While running desperately, he raised the horn that was pulled out hastily and hung around his neck, and blew it desperately.
The horn is specially made, and a magic circle is engraved inside it by the magic pattern master, which can penetrate very far.This has played an important role many times in the battles of Lunza history.Even though the production value of the magic pattern horn is extremely high, Lun Sa still insists on distributing it to every scout, because their enemies are often not humans who need the help of equipment.Lunsha's scouts are in a race against time to get the news out before they die.
The root system of the treant pulled the clods of soil. Trees originally had huge root systems, but now they broke through the ground, bringing about roaring vibrations and loud noises.Hank felt the ground tremble, and he felt the old tales he had only heard at his parents' fireside reappear.Dark clouds will cover the entire sky as the undead invade, and the rotting undead will drag passers-by by their ankles, hang them up and eat them...
Hank's foot slipped suddenly, he let out a loud cry, and rolled down the slope with his head in his arms.Perhaps by luck, he just dodged a vine that was thrown over him.He shouted: "Bless the Goddess of Light!!" But the whole person kept rolling down, and finally he could only lie on the ground in embarrassment, his mouth was filled with mud.
And there was no sound behind him.He pissed and pissed the mud out of his mouth several times, but the smell of the mud did not dissipate.Hank suddenly realized something, he turned his head slowly, the tree man's rotten and smelly face was almost close to him.Hank's teeth began to chatter uncontrollably, he felt his whole body twitching, tears were almost frightened by the approaching death.
Who will come to rescue him?Probably no one will come.The only luck is that he spread the news in time...
The tree man opened his mouth wide and bit down on Hank, and Hank closed his eyes in fright.
At that moment, a small thing rolled by the tree man's legs.It raised the little thing curiously.
And Hank just felt a strong grab on his neckline and pulled him back.He nearly screamed, and a hand reached over his mouth.These hands are warm, and although they are unusually large, they are definitely not weird things like orcs or undead.
It's human!He is saved!Recruit Hank could hardly contain his joy.There was a sudden explosion, and the tree man's arm was shattered into pieces, and thick liquid splashed up, dousing Hank's face before he had time to cheer.At this time, a small human gradually appeared, stood behind the tree man and shouted: "Hey! You big fool, come on! Your opponent is here, do you want to try another one?" The tree man recognized that the small thing thrown up and down in the opponent's hand was the thing that exploded his arm just now, so he immediately rushed towards the human being.
"Okay, it's all right." Just as Hank was watching intently how the human was able to attack and kill the tree man with ease, a voice came from behind him.
Hank turned his head, and it was a red-haired, unusually tall female swordsman.There was a two-handed sword hanging behind her, and Hank secretly looked at it, thinking that it was absolutely impossible for him to swing such a heavy thing.Inexplicable awe rose in his heart, he straightened his body hastily, and then bowed to the female swordsman: "Thank you for saving my life."
The female swordsman looked warm, glanced at Hank, and smiled at him: "You did a good job. It was your horn that attracted us. You saved yourself."
The female swordsman's words made the recruit a little shy. He recalled how embarrassed he was before, but due to his duties, he still asked: "I am Hank, a recruit from Berne, and I am a scout in charge of patrolling. Are you... ?”
"We are mercenaries in response to the conscription order from all over the country." The female swordsman replied, her facial features had the roughness of a northerner, and she would look very serious when she was not smiling.She shook out a crumpled conscription order from her pocket, and said, "We just arrived in Bern today and got the signature and seal of the city lord...here, here it is."
Hank looked at the place pointed by the female swordsman. The seal was very new, and it was the lion heart seal of Berne.
"Do you know how to read? Here is our identity signature." The female swordsman pointed to the other side of the document.
"Yes, yes, we have short-term training." Hank straightened up hastily and replied.He frowned and carefully identified the cursive writing on it, which was different from the writing he was familiar with, and he couldn't recognize it very well, but in short, it was very beautiful, "Hmm... let me see , Casey...well, the fourth-level two-handed swordsman, um...belonging to...belonging to...currently serving as...holding..." Hank realized that he didn't know many words, and he was sweating profusely. I also stuttered more and more.
"Kathy Blade Fist, a fourth-level two-handed swordsman, belongs to the Eastern Continent Mercenary Branch. He is currently serving as the forward leader of the third mercenary support team. The captain is Lauren Reigns. May the Goddess of Light always protect us. "The female swordsman calmly read the words written on that piece of paper.
Hank looked at the female swordsman in surprise, he suddenly realized something, pulled out the short blade on his waist, looked at the female swordsman, and asked warily, "Are you an orc?"
"She's a tiefling." The brisk words came from Arnold, who ended the life of the tree man. He turned the dagger in his hand, walked over, and pressed Hank's blade, "Hey, boy, be careful. Don't you Are you used to pointing the blade at your savior?"
"Yeah, but she has an orc surname!" Hank yelled at Arno.
"Look, I asked you to change your name a long time ago." Arnold shook his head at Casey.
"My family name and my beliefs are my honor," Kathy replied, spreading her arms out to Hank. "I grew up in the Eastern Continent, and never belonged to a Northern Continental clan. Take it easy, Bladefist Clan." I am the only one in this world, and they have no way to participate in the battle against the Northern Continent. And I, representing my other half of human blood, fight for mankind.”
Seeing Hank's hesitation, Arnold hurriedly added: "The document is real. Even if you don't trust us, you should trust the professionalism of your lord and the mercenary union." He saw Hank It looked like he was moving, so he pressed it on the blade, smiled at him, and pressed down a little bit, "Okay, young man, you are very responsible and brave. But now, we should rush back in time to inform other People. We don't know yet if the rest of your companions were as lucky as you or unlucky enough to end up in the belly of these rotting treants."
Mentioning his companion, Hank immediately came to his senses. Although he was still worried about Casey, as Arnold said, it would be better to rush back in time and convey the precious information than to worry about this issue now.He didn't know how far his horn could travel, and he didn't know if his companion was still alive. He even regretted why he didn't run back to the city in time just now.
At this time, one after another, horns sounded suddenly.Hank looked around, panicked on his young face: "What's going on? Did they all encounter... that kind of monster?"
"It seems so." Kathy frowned and listened for a while. She watched Hank start to tremble unconsciously, so she pressed his head and gave him a relieved smile. "But you don't have to worry. , because our captain is here too.”
The author has something to say:
Changed the way of writing to highlight Uncle Luo Lun...not...There are more than two protagonists involved in this battle and this story, I also want to express the ordinary people...It is not to highlight the awesomeness of Uncle Luo Lun ,real! ! !
73 Recruits from Hero City
It took only a few minutes for the horn to sound, and the roar followed.Casey glanced at Hank who was still in a daze and said, "Okay, recruit, your mission has been completed, now go back to Bern."
After she finished speaking, she ignored Hank and just met Arnold who was walking towards her.Throwing the small thing in his hand, the thief said, "How do we go now? This thing is really useful."
"Stop playing, this thing is very expensive." Casey replied with some helplessness, she twitched her nose.Half-orc blood gave her a sense of smell far superior to that of a human.She pointed in a direction casually and said, "Over there, the smell of goblin bombs and undead is the strongest." Arnold always had no doubts about Casey's answer, he put the goblin bomb back in his pocket, and was about to When he left, he turned his head and saw Hank still standing there blankly.
"Hey, why don't you leave? The undead are not something you recruits can defeat."
"I...I can't go! I want to see my friends too." Hank grabbed his hem nervously, bent down and said, "Please take me, this is my country, I, I can protect it too!"
Casey and Arnold looked at each other, Casey snorted softly, and strode forward.A Nuo smiled helplessly, and said, "If you are not afraid of death, follow along. Let me tell you first, I have completed the captain's explanation, so we will not guarantee your life in the next journey."
"It's okay..." Hank wanted to say something, but Arnold had already turned and left, so Hank had to follow in a hurry.
The forest is no longer a place he is familiar with. I don’t know when, the corrupted treants have quietly invaded this forest. Flame was originally the best way to deal with these treants, but so many people are in the forest , and no one dared to start a fire, so as not to get burned.Along the way, the battle situation can be said to be tragic. Large sections of trees were uprooted and swept out by the treants, and the horns were still humming one after another.Some half-grown children who had just joined the army were unable to dodge in time, and were crushed underneath, bleeding and crying.
"God of Light..." Hank said in a low voice.
"Everyone is ready! Drive them to the designated place!" Immediately after a rattling sound sounded, a man's voice shouted. His voice was obviously enhanced by the amplification magic, and it quickly spread to all in people's ears.
"Follow me!" Then, the brightly colored flag was set up, and Hank saw a dwarf with a big rough beard, and a mountain antelope under him.This kind of sheep is good at jumping, about the height of an adult, covered with thick and long wool, very suitable for running in dense and cold woods.The dwarf bent his body and roared to drive the antelope forward. Just before the collision, his body glowed golden, and the golden light enveloped him and the alpine antelope, looking invincible, knocking the tree man back. a few steps.
"Very good! Keep going!"
Seeing the blow succeed, the dwarf shouted.And there was echoing cheers from all around, and dozens of people armed with various weapons emerged, some of them even carried Hank's colleagues behind their backs.At this time, some people also spotted Casey and Arnold, and waved to them.This is probably the most passionate experience Hank has had since joining the army. These people have different skin colors, dressing habits, and men and women are also different, but their eyes are equally friendly and firm, and they will even help those useless recruits them.
Hank couldn't help but also grabbed his weapon, wanting to rush towards the tree people like them.
"Hey, kid, watch from behind." A man as strong as a bear stretched out his hand, picked up Hank by the collar, and threw him behind him, "Look at the strength of the third mercenary team obediently." .”
The tree people were quickly driven to an artificially emptied space. In fact, it didn't take too much time. Some tree people were attracted directly after being attracted by a blow.If you want to fight purely with flesh and blood to defeat these treants one by one, it will take a lot of energy, but it is not difficult to attract firepower like this.
"Captain, we are ready!" The same dwarf shouted loudly.
Just when his voice just fell.The voice of the mage's incantation sounded: "ShulBahDun..." This is not a short incantation, but the caster's speech speed did not stop at all, and it seemed to be easy and rhythmic.Although the woman's voice weakens that sense of heaviness, it increases the feeling of mystery and sacredness.
As a Northlander, Hank quickly felt the discomfort and heat. He noticed the mage's intentions, and couldn't help but change his face, shouting: "This is in the forest..."
"Don't talk, just watch." A person pressed Hank's head.
Hank had to swallow his words in his stomach.
Just as Hank thought, those overly active fire elements in the air were gathered, and then, the wind swirled, forming a huge pillar of pure fire like a tornado.This is different from the phenomenon naturally formed in nature. The fire elementals are driven by the mage, attacking the tree man like crazy.Due to the natural confrontation and weakening of the fire spells and the treants, even if they had been corrupted into creatures that could not feel pain, the soul-burning attack still made the treants start running around.
At this moment, a block of stone walls rose from the ground, blocking the tree man's path.Hank's eyes widened in surprise. He has never seen a mage before, and he couldn't help feeling: "You have so many mages..."
"Mage? Those guys have been recruited to the front line a long time ago. We only have one mage." The big man at the side obviously relaxed. He stuck his sword on the ground with a smug smile on his face, " There's only one mage, and she's a beautiful woman. You'll see it later."
Can a mage use two spells at the same time?Hank didn't quite understand it, but that didn't stop his admiration from rising.
The ever-strengthening earth wall and fire pillar made the tree people scream in pain, but no one was moved by it. Everyone watched silently until the earth wall fell, and the flame lost its target and began to dissipate.These fire elementals were violent and disorderly. After losing their target, they gathered together and began to pounce on the surrounding forest.
"Lauren."
The mage's voice that Hank had heard before shouted softly.Then, the fire elements seemed to be twisted together by something, and began to gather in one direction.This was a strange sight that Hank had never seen before. These flames ignited by the mage burned out of thin air, bringing a burning sensation that did not belong to the Northland. They were pulled into a long rope and finally fell into the palm of a person's raised hand.As if it were a miracle, the fire elementals scrambled to be pulled, and finally annihilated in the palm of that thin man.
"Are you dumbfounded? Haha, I was also dumbfounded when I saw it for the first time. She is obviously a knight who doesn't use any magic." The big man shook his head, then reached out and pressed Hank, saying, "That's our captain."
"Captain!" While speaking, someone rushed over and ran to Lauren's side.Lauren nodded at him, and then rushed back and said, "Patia, I'll leave the purification to you later."
"Yes, yes, isn't it like this every time?" Following the voice, more and more blond women came out. She was wearing a priest's robe, and with the sound of chanting in a low voice, the power of light fell to the ground profusely and it fell on all the people.
Hank felt that the pores of his whole body were stretched. He sharply saw a small sapling emerge from the place where the corruption was the worst, that is, the place where the tree people died collectively.This is simply a miracle!Hank couldn't help but admire the kindness of the Goddess of Light.
And Idni, who was hiding in the crowd, opened her hood, took a few steps forward, looked at the sapling, and then shouted to Partia: "Okay, save some magic power, don't waste it."
"Did I waste it?" The former Holy Maiden of Light couldn't help snorting, "You even gave birth to a sapling to see if the purification was complete. Who is wasting magic power?"
It turned out that the sapling was born.Hank couldn't help thinking.
"Since your magic power is enough, then you can walk around the forest to see where it is not purified, so just do it." The mage snorted softly.
Patiya clearly showed her dissatisfaction, but she didn't say anything else, she just hummed softly a few times, and pulled the alpine antelope aside to climb up.
"Miss Patia! Please let us protect you!" Immediately afterwards, several men who appeared to be suitors rushed out and followed Patia.Hank saw sharply that several other women followed.
He was a little confused, but then he became nervous again, because the captain named Lauren walked towards them.
"Captain." The big man immediately greeted him and said, "The captain is very mighty! It's simply amazing."
"You're the one who talks a lot." Lauren glanced at him, then turned his head away, waited for Idney to come to her side, then took her hand, and said to the big man, "The things here are almost over. It's over, we should go back and return."
The big man responded a few times, and seeing Hank staring intently at Lauren's back, he couldn't help laughing a few times, and said, "Did you take a fancy to our captain? Tell you, although she is pretty, she is absolutely She has killed a lot of people, even I who have killed a lot of people will feel fear when they see her."
"No, it's not," Hank replied, blushing, and he whispered, "I just think she looks familiar, but I don't remember where I saw her."
"Familiar?" The big man didn't say anything, but Edney turned her head, looked Hank up and down, and asked, "Where are you from?"
Seeing the powerful and beautiful mage asking himself, the young man blushed with excitement, he stammered and replied: "Return, Master Mage, I am from the city of Heroic Spirits. I came to live in Berne with my parents when I was young."
"Heroic Spirit City..." Idni looked at the child and wanted to say something more, but Lauren's gentle voice echoed, "My dear contractor, why don't you leave?"
Idni hurriedly responded and turned her head, but Lauren's eyes did not look at Idni, but fell on the young man who was still full of admiration.This kind of look is definitely not the gentle and calm that Ideni is familiar with, nor is it the polite and alienated face of ordinary people.In an instant, the icy killing intent enveloped everyone like the cold wind from the North Continent, chilling everyone's hearts.
"Let's go." Lauren quickly looked away, she said softly, and turned her head again.She pulled Idni, and Idni had to quickly follow her footsteps, and then she heard Lauren's soft voice, "We are getting closer and closer to Redstone City, it's great."
This voice was obviously the warm tone that Idni remembered, but at the moment it was like a poisonous snake waking up from hibernation, with an uncomfortable venom.
The backs of the two gradually moved away. The big man in front touched the back of his head strangely, and looked at the young man who was also dazed but innocent. Try to stay as far away from our captain as possible." He didn't know why he felt the killing intent at that moment, but for mercenaries, killing may be justified or unreasonable, it doesn't matter.
But that woman has always been a fair and open character, he thought he should believe that the other party would not kill people for no reason, but out of some caution, he still reminded the young man.
The author has something to say:
Lauren's blackening is imminent, everyone, let's do it and cherish it, well, here is the team structure of Lauren's past:
Composition: 320 six people in total
Sub-group: two (Albin: knight, transformed into a general of the underworld after death; Diana: mage, transformed into a banshee after death)
One head of the guard: 20 elite subordinates, all of them will be transformed into death knights after death
Three centurions:
One hundred and fifteen infantry, transformed into skeleton soldiers after undead, without self-awareness
One hundred cavalry, transformed into skeleton knights after undead, without self-awareness
Fifty mages, transformed into ghosts or banshees after undead, without autonomous consciousness
74 Past and Future
After dealing with the city lord of Berne, the group returned to the place specially prepared by the city lord for the mercenary team.When Lauren finished his routine lectures and announced his disbandment, he came to Idni's side.Together, they walked side by side in the city of the Northern Continent, enjoying the rare leisure time after the war.
"The winter wheat has been harvested, and last year's newly brewed beer should be out. The wheat that is abundant in the Northland tastes good, and the beer tastes better than other places." Lauren said to Idney.When they first entered the Northern Continent, they encountered the task of harvesting winter wheat, which was their first battle.The entire city was hit by a natural disaster of the undead, and everyone in the city who could run ran away, and those who couldn't run became a member of the army of undead.
Their army has just been established, and the task they receive is to escort a regular army to harvest the winter wheat that has been abandoned by the farmers.The dead can eat the living, but the living have to eat food.The Northern Continent is so cold, and the crops only mature once a year. It would be a pity if the wheat was abandoned like this.This is actually what the recruited mercenaries have done most since the Scourge of the Undead.The regular army does not believe in mercenaries driven by money, especially in a knight kingdom with a long history and tradition like Lunza.They regard sacrifice, kindness, and friendliness as virtues, and they always have a cold-eyed hostility towards mercenaries.
Idney nodded as she surveyed the city.This place is no different from other cities in the Northern Continent. The Northern Continent produces the hardest rock in the entire territory. The blue steel rocks are built into the largest square by craftsmen and piled up to form a thick city wall to block the cold wind and foreign enemies in the Northern Continent.Most of the northern mainland cities with a bit of spare money will do this.The people here are tall and strong, with light hair and skin color. Lauren's black hair is particularly conspicuous, and people often look at her quietly.
But Lauren never looked back, and she took Idney for a drink.The mage was supposed to refuse such a drink in order to stay awake at all times, but Idni would not refuse Lauren.As Lauren said, having a drink after the battle can relieve one's emotions to the greatest extent, and on the contrary can relieve oneself from the extreme excitement of the battle.
When it comes to fighting, Lauren is always right.
Edney thought.They talked a little bit and ate a little bit of bread. The city of Berne seemed to have sufficient food reserves, and there was still room to make relatively rich food. This was the most comfortable and best time they had eaten along the way.Idni finished the meal with gratitude, and tomorrow the whole team will go forward to the front line to join the king's army and complete the final goal of the third mercenary team.
How did things become like this?Edni looked at the burning flames in the hotel and thought.Obviously less than a month ago, they had just walked from the airship to the territory of the Eastern Continent.
Compared with the Southern Continent, which was filled with cheerful emotions, the Eastern Continent was more nervous.A considerable part of the Eastern Continent is not only connected to the Central Continent, but also partly connected to the Northern Continent.The news of the undead was spread by the fleeing people, coupled with the unified race, all countries in the Eastern Continent responded to the whole-territory conscription order initiated by Lun Sa.This time it was completely different from the last time the conscription order was made in a small way. The mercenary union came forward in person. They selected the right people, and then asked and lobbied the mercenaries when they delivered the tasks.
I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune, but Lauren, Idni, and Patia, who just registered as a mercenary, are all on the list.powerful force
