In the middle of the night, Cross suddenly felt a sharp pain in his limbs, and sure enough, just as he had a hunch, the backlash of blood was coming.

He endured the pain to observe the extent of the backlash, his arms and legs were covered with slowly wriggling bloodshots, and his entire right hand was completely covered in bloodshots.

His trembling left hand carefully picked up the magic potion that had been prepared beside him, and then bit the stopper, and the glass bottle gradually approached his right hand as it shook.

One, two, three...... Cross couldn't remember how much mana had dropped into his right hand, all he remembered was that the blood had faded as he devoured it.

Then the left arm, and finally the legs.

Once again, the backlash was suppressed by mana, but most of the remaining bottles of mana potions used last time had been exhausted. He put the empty bottle away, let out a long sigh of relief, and collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, no one found out. Cross secretly rejoiced.

However, a sense of crisis also arises spontaneously, and Cross only has 4 bottles of magic potions left on his body, and it won't be long before these life-saving things will be used up. The tiredness deepened, he no longer had the energy to think too much, and soon he fell asleep.

......

Cross rolled over and tugged at the linen that had been covering him at some point, he slept very comfortably, and what could be more pleasant in such a season than to sleep in the warm sun.

"Cross, this guy, why is he still sleeping, if we don't get up and hurry, when will we be able to get to Copper Mountain Town?" ”

"Shhhh

"Nia, you're really, and you're preventing me from waking him up, if I hadn't beaten you, I'd have woken up Cross a long time ago, in that case, we've come a long way by now. Gawain lowered his voice this time.

Lancelot, who was tidying up his things on the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard this.

Cross, who had always been alert, was also woken up, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the sun was already hanging high in the sky, and it was at least 9 o'clock after the sun was in that position, and he also found that he was actually covered with a linen coat, which was Nia's clothes.

He sat up lazily and twisted his neck, then turned his head to look at Nia, the half-human girl had changed into the leather armor sent by William, of course, the leather armor that Nia was wearing had been treated, although it was still too large, but at least Nia was able to wear that leather armor for normal activities.

"Lord Cross, would you like some water?" said Nia, handing over a water bladder.

"Thank you. Cross took it and gulped it down. "Ah......h ”

"People who have a quilt cover are so happy. Come, get some bread, Cross, we're on our way when we're done. Gawain threw a piece of dry bread at Cross.

"Hmm. Cross nibbled on the bread, glanced over the three of them, and said, "Thank you for letting me sleep so long." ”

......

After eating and drinking, Cross also changed into a leather armor, and before he officially hit the road, he dug up a piece of dirt and crushed it. And whispered to himself, "The soil is okay." ”

Subsequently, the group officially hit the road.

However, their destination is not Copperhill Town, but the closest town to Blackwater, Ximu Town.

If Cross and the others want to return to Tongshan Town as soon as possible, it will definitely not work in the original way of walking, not to mention, they still have so much equipment with them, so the way to go upstream by water is also excluded.

Therefore, Cross suggested going to the nearest town of Ximu first, where the equipment was sold to the local lord at a low price, and purchasing transportation such as horse-drawn carriages, so that the group could reach the town of Copper Mountain in the shortest possible time.

Nia and Lancelot both agreed with Cross's suggestion, but Gawain was a little unhappy, he felt sorry for the equipment, and the equipment he had just arrived had to be sold at a low price, and Cross didn't just plan to sell one or two pieces, Cross wanted to sell all the remaining equipment, which was a huge loss. Of course, Gawain was unhappy in his heart.

He also complained that Cross was not very thoughtful, and if he had gotten transportation from William in the first place, he wouldn't have had to go through such a difficult task.

However, the plan went according to Cross's ideas. He first arranged for Nia to investigate the situation in Ximu Town, he wanted to know which side of Ximu Town belonged to now, if he was unfortunate enough to be slaughtered by the Seatta people, then this plan could not be continued.

Later that evening, Nia's investigation had already yielded results.

"Lord Cross, the town of Creekwood has not been captured by the resistance, nor has it been slaughtered by the army of Seyada. ”

"Then let's head to Ximu Town. ”

"Cross, I'm not going in. How could Gawain, who opposed this plan, be willing to witness the success of this plan with his own eyes.

"Alright, Nia, you'll protect Gawain outside the town when the time comes. ”

"What about you? Lord Cross. ”

"Nia, you're too partial, aren't you...... Does he still need protection?"

Nia rolled her eyes at Gawain, then turned her head away.

"Lord Cross, why don't I wait for you outside the town with Lord Gawain?"

"No, Lancelot, you're going to go in with me. If Nia goes in, it will be easier to reveal her identity. ”

"Good!"

"Then it was so happily decided. Cross said.

"It's not a pleasant decision to sell all the equipment......" Gawain complained.

"Gawain, I hope you can think about things in the long run, and don't care too much about temporary gains and losses, you are the one who will have the richest territory in the future. ”
