Even though it's still summer, the British Isles have a chill when night falls. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
From time to time, the wind blew, making the trees of this lush forest make a rattling sound, not far from a dense and majestic tree in the forest, a dazzling bonfire burned, there were two teenagers lit a bonfire, not far from the bonfire under the tree tied to two sweat and blood beasts, they lay there peacefully closed their eyes to recuperate.
Seeing the burning bonfire, Lin Xiao hurriedly sat down and stretched out his hands to keep warm, while the other young knight, Atolis, was standing by the bonfire, with a pair of eyes staring into the distance, with a hint of anxiety and worry.
Lin Xiao glanced at Atolis, and said immediately: "I said Atolis, you sit down first, it's late at night, have a good rest, and we will be on our way tomorrow." β
Lin Xiao and Atolis, it has been 2 days since they left Marne Town, and the journey down is relatively smooth, but the bad luck is that after leaving the previous town yesterday, they have not seen the town again, and finally have no choice but to sleep in the forest.
"I'm sorry Lin Xiao, I'm just a little worried about Mr. Merlin. "Because Atollis always adds Your Excellency when calling Lin Xiao, it makes Lin Xiao feel quite awkward, and at Lin Xiao's strong request, now Atollis has also called him by his name.
Lin Xiao pointed to the darkness in the distance, and then said: "Bringing light in the darkness is exactly the kind of temperamental person of Master Merlin, you should believe him, sit down and eat something first, and then go to bed early, no matter how you look at it, the mage is not the kind of character who goes out to deliver food, maybe they are all waiting for us in the cathedral now." β
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, thinking that Teacher Merlin was so powerful, Atollis sat down with a little peace of mind.
"Take this piece of snack. After the young knight sat down, Lin Xiao took out a piece of snack from his space backpack and handed it to him.
Atollis took the snack and said softly, "Thank you." He ate it in small bites, and soon the snacks in his hands were wiped out by him.
Lin Xiao was also accustomed to the speed at which he ate in the past two days, and said with a smile: "You guy, only when you eat, you don't think nonsense." β
Then he took out all the snacks he had prepared for dinner from his space backpack, which looked a bit like rice cakes, but was wrapped in red beans, mung beans or other fillings, and had its own unique flavor.
These snacks wrapped around them were a clean and delicate square cloth, Lin Xiao placed the pastry flat between the two of them, the light of the bonfire shining on them, of course, Atolis's eyes had already been attracted by the dim sum.
"Okay, let's eat together, eat and continue to hurry tomorrow. As soon as the words fell, Atolis had already picked up a piece of red pastry in his right hand. "Hey, that piece is my favorite red plum pastry! Before he finished speaking, the pastry had already fallen into Atolis's mouth, and Atolis was a little vague because he was chewing the snack: "Ah, Lin Xiao, you said it too late." β
After Atollis finished eating, he innocently looked at Lin Xiao with a depressed expression, then looked at the dim sum, and then his pair of turquoise eyes looked at Luo Ge with an expectant gaze and said, "Can you eat it now?"
"No! Attolis, given your foodie nature, I've decided that we're going to divide the snacks evenly. Lin Xiao announced.
Then the remaining eight pieces of dim sum were divided into 4 pieces per person by Lin Xiao, and when he divided the portion handed to Atolis, Lin Xiao felt that his eyes were glowing.
After the pleasant dinner time was over, Lin Xiao leaned under a tree not far from the bonfire, looked up at the sky, unfortunately the night was dark and the wind was high, there was not a single star, and it really made people feel that the scene was wrong, but life is precisely because it is not a drama, and it will not be full of stars when you suddenly look up at the night sky, maybe it is not perfect, so it can be full of fun.
From entering the salvation space to becoming a 6-star powerhouse, and then dying in the face of overwhelming power, now all this is back to square one, the only difference is that the scenery along the way has been updated again.
Savior, this is just the name of the space forcibly An, he never thought of becoming such a troublesome thing as a savior, but the answer and pursuit that belongs to him have never been found, just waiting for the end of the next time?
What interrupted Lin Xiao's thoughts was that the knight named Atolis, who didn't know when he fell asleep quietly against a tree, like a soft murmur in a dream.
"Teacher, I'm going to be the king. Certain.. β
Is Atollis the savior of this world?
The two saviors met a little like a drama, although Lin Xiao's heart never really wanted to save anything, and this young knight was bound by the so-called king's fate and embarked on a path that didn't know who decided, was this really what he wanted?
Although they didn't get along for a long time, Lin Xiao could feel that he was full of positive energy, such as sincerity, strength, kindness, etc. But with these, even if you pull out the legendary sword in the stone, and want to easily become the king of this island, it can only be a romantic legend, if you can, you have to live more freely, this sentence has forgotten who to listen to.
Atolis heard him say that he had been practicing his swordsmanship and training to become a good knight since he could remember, and he was really a very serious person.
As for the name of the savior, it's just a shackle to himself, but it feels good to be at least alive, and is he really a greedy person?
But are you the kind of man who willingly puts on a savior shackle called the King for yourself, Atolis?
I really can't understand what kind of psychological process it is to live in order to become a king? Saving the world looks beautiful, but in fact, there is a lot of price to pay, Lin Xiao has seen people who are also saviors in her memory, who were brutally killed, and who struggled to survive in the mission, saving the world is not only not beautiful, but more sad.
What does the so-called King of Britain mean to Atollis? This guy is asleep, so ask him tomorrowγγγγγγγγγγγ
This is the second day of conversation between Lin Xiao and Atolis...
"Atolis, do you want to be the king of Britain?" Lin Xiao asked the young knight meaningfully.
"Yes. Without the slightest hesitation, Atollis replied.
"Why?"
"Mr. Merlin took me to the front lines of the war, where the kings and the kings and the aliens fought fiercely, where many villages were burned, many people were plundered and killed, people were shrouded in pain, death, and misfortune, and Mr. Merlin said that my destiny was to save Britain. The young knight replied in a deep voice.
"I see, but fate is a bit cunning, Atolis, do you believe in your fate? I think everyone's fate is in their own hands, and what you want is the most important thing. β
"Everyone's fate is in their own hands, so now I'm here, maybe it's not fate or anything, at that time the sad people in front of my eyes, I can't help them, but as long as I become the king of Britain one day, I want to work hard to protect their smiles. Atolis looked into Lin Xiao's eyes seriously, as if seeking affirmation.
Lin Xiao looked at the turquoise pupils that were not mixed with any impurities, and was silent for a while and said with an admiring smile: "In this way, I can feel that you can become an excellent king, but I can't wait to see you draw your sword, the future king of Britain." β
"Lin Xiao, thank you for letting me once again confirm my most sincere heart. Atolis thanked him sincerely.
"Okay, praise you a few words and you will go to heaven, you are a foodie, be careful that Britain will be eaten by you in the future!" Lin Xiao joked with a smile.
Atolis's face turned red, and he said with some annoyance: "It's not like this!"
Actually, Atolis, you also reminded me that the so-called savior may be the existence that brings smiles to people, although I am more to keep myself alive, is this okay? Lin Xiao flashed such a thought, and then smiled, sure enough, the savior or something should let Atollis be.
Darkness:
In the dark night, at the time of Lin Xiao and Atolis's meal, a knight in another place ran away desperately, obviously just secretly going to the cathedral according to his father's instructions, to see who the sword in the stone had chosen as the king of Britain, of course, there was also a hint of thought, maybe the chosen person was him.
But this was just a dream after all, and he was suddenly attacked by a monster, and all the guards in his company died, leaving him alone.
But the monster's pursuit did not end, the roar of the terrifying beast sounded from behind him again, so that he fell to the ground in fear, even the sword that belonged to him fell to the ground, he did not pick it up, but immediately got up and ran frantically, I don't know how long he ran, the roar behind him could no longer be heard, he fell to the ground exhausted, gasping for breath, after a while, he suddenly felt a chill.
Raising his head, he saw a man in a gray-black robe standing not far from him, a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth, a pair of eyes looking at him without any emotion, cold to the bone, but he couldn't move, the cold voice of the black-robed man announced, found, the sixth.
