"No need, I'll meet him in person, this time it's a good job, control the team, don't wait for me, keep marching at a constant pace. "Bull Erickson didn't hit his lieutenant this time, after all, in addition to not having enough brains, doing things for people is quite reassuring, as for the suggestion to shoot the other party, he didn't think about it at all, the consequences of angering a big knight are serious, angering a big knight who may carry the epidemic, then it is not a serious problem.

Behind the bull troops were the Grand Knight Ajar and a dozen surviving knights, they were the only ones left in the entire slave hunting team who could still travel long distances, and all of them did not look very good, including the Grand Knight Ajar himself.

The world is impermanent, and Ajar chose the safest way at the beginning, but he didn't expect the whole team to fall into the abyss of no return.

The plague came silently, and it was so ferocious that by the time Ajar noticed that something was wrong, the uninjured soldiers were showing bad symptoms.

Not to mention those who were seriously injured and had no time to deal with them, they were covered in goosebumps, their faces were purple, their whole bodies were sore, they were talking nonsense, sometimes cold and sometimes hot.

When it's cold, even if the sun is scorching, it's still shivering with several layers of animal skin.

When it's hot, the whole person turns into a stove, and even in the second half of the night, I can't help but jump into the icy mountain stream to soak.

However, no one dared to do this unless it was absolutely necessary, because the slave hunters who jumped into the mountain stream first were the first to die, and the death was strange.

On the third day, mass deaths began, and the first to die were those who were seriously wounded, and the injuries on their bodies themselves cost them half a small life, and with the toss of an unknown epidemic, it was strange that they did not die.

Benson and Bartley both belong to the first wave of people, whether your status is noble or not, it depends on whether your body can withstand it, and the small physique of these two young masters is naturally the first to be tossed.

As soon as Bartley died, the Grand Knight Ajar had no reason to stay here, and he wanted to leave, but he was shocked to find that he had also been tricked.

Ajer's shock is not without reason, when the body is tempered to the level of the great knight, the internal structure of the body has undergone slight changes, it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that it is a non-human transformation, but they are indeed insulated from ordinary diseases, they have only heard of the great knights who died in battle, and have not heard of the great knights who died of illness.

Even if there is really a big knight who dies of illness, it is also a former big knight, and he has long since fallen out of the level of a great knight due to old age and decay.

In fact, when it comes to the knight level, it has a strong resistance to many diseases, but the big knight level is more powerful.

It was precisely because of this that Ager had the courage to continue to perform his duties until Bartley took his last bite, but he did not expect that the epidemic was so strong that even the Grand Knight could not be spared.

However, the physique of the great knight was there after all, and although the symptoms of the epidemic were the same as those of ordinary soldiers, they were significantly lighter, and they could still move freely.

But if you want to get out of the mountains alone, it is obviously impossible, who knows if the condition will suddenly worsen halfway, at that time it is really called the heaven and the earth, and in desperation, they can only hope for the letter asking for help, just when they were about to despair, the reinforcements led by the bull Erickson arrived.

Bull Erickson's decisiveness was far beyond their expectations, and before they could come out to say hello, they had already fought hard, even in the face of their own companions, and if they had this decision, they would not have fallen to the point where they are now.

They could not give up the only chance to escape, so they could only follow from afar, hoping to find an opportunity to contact again and ask for help, even if they knew that there was little hope, judging from the means previously revealed, the leader of the other party was not a soft-hearted lord.

The situation of the dozen or so knights around Ajer is the same as him, they are all regular knights brought by Bartley, although they have not reached the level of big knights, but the system is absolutely excellent, although they were recruited, they did not lie down.

"Stop!" "Stop!" Ajer took the initiative to stop when the bull Erickson was still thirty or forty meters away from them, "The plague we got this time is a bit strange, even the big knights can be infected, we don't want to return to the team, as long as you are willing to let us follow your team, I, Ajar Clarke, will remember your kindness, even if I die, it will be repaid by my children and grandchildren, out of the mountain, we will go our separate ways, and we will never harm you." ”

"As much as I would love to help you, I must think of my brothers, what you are carrying is too dangerous, and the slightest mistake can cost thousands of lives. Bull Erickson was silent for a long time and said, "And even if you follow us, you will not be able to get out of the mountain, and now the Bastille has changed hands." ”

"What do you mean?" Ajel was stunned, unable to react immediately.

"We have been tricked to leave the Bastille, and we have only left the Bastille with our front foot, and then we have been attacked by night with our back foot, and they have taken it down, and now if we want to leave the Bastille, then we will cross the whole Andes Mountains, and go out of the Odin steppe in the north, either over the Roof of the World, Sonset, or we will find a way out of the mountain, or you can ask the current ruler of the Bastille to let you pass through the city. Bull Eriksen wore a helmet throughout, and it was impossible to read his expression, but his tone was definitely not kind.

"What do you mean?" Although the big knight Ajer was not very happy, but after all, he was born in a big family, and I had seen a lot of deception, and he understood the words of Bull Erickson in seconds, and was shocked by the news that the Bastille had been captured, and angry that the other party actually pointed the finger at him, suspecting that he had played a dishonorable role in the middle, "If this is really a game that I participated in, how could I still obediently stay where I am and let you arrest him? How can I make such a mess of myself?"

"I'm sorry, I lost my word. Bull Erickson bowed slightly, as an apology, but still insisted on his opinion, "Your Excellency Ajer, I don't have any prejudice against you personally, but for the sake of everyone's safety, we really can't go with you, I will leave enough food and clean drinking water for you in front, I only ask you to wait until the middle of the day before leaving, and keep enough distance between the two sides, otherwise, I can't guarantee whether my subordinates can control their emotions, once there is bloodshed, there is no room for relaxation." ”

Ajar and his knights fell silent, and if they were to be put in the same position, they would have made the same choice, if not more cruelly, and the selfishness and ruthlessness of human nature were undoubtedly exposed under the horror of the epidemic, which had caused the population of the continent of Ashane to plummet by two percent in just a few decades.

"I accept your suggestion. Ajel is also reluctant to fight with the other party, after all, the other party left them a chance, following the trail of the large army, they always have a chance, and after leaving the camp, he feels that his physical condition has recovered a lot, of course, this may also be because of the psychological illusion caused by seeing hope.

"Your Excellency has made the right choice, and I thank you for my people. Bull Erickson bowed sincerely, and then there was no longer any stop, only he knew that he was far from showing composure, and the god of truth blessed, this was a plague that even the great knight could contract, unheard of.

Originally, Erikson thought that the shadow of the epidemic in his heart had long disappeared with him entering the Great Knight level, but now he found that he was wrong, very wrong, that desperate fear has been hidden in his heart, no, it is engraved in his body, but it is protected by the armor of the Great Knight level that can defend against the epidemic.

When this layer of armor was ruthlessly stripped away, he was still the lonely ghost in the prairie, looking around, except for dead corpses and dead corpses, people, cows, sheep, horses, and even jackals and wild dogs whose vitality was stronger than weeds, there was no trace.

Between heaven and earth, it seemed that he was the only one left, and the strong suffocating putrid stench lingered in his nose, heart and lungs, mind, and bone marrow, and Erikson suddenly found that only a body had survived that year, and his soul had rotted away with his relatives in the great plague of that year.

Since then, Bull Eriksen has been in a daze, rejoining with the elder Bolton and only a hundred miles from the Bastille.

For the news brought back by the bull Erickson, old Bolton felt a deep powerlessness, this kind of thing is beyond the control of manpower, even if he knew that the great knight Ajel was only a few dozen miles away from him, he did not have any idea of cooperating with the other party, it was not dancing on the tip of the knife, but preparing to push himself into the abyss of no return.

The second encounter between Sean's coalition and the Bastille began the day after the elder Bolton got the news.

Hundreds of miles east of the Bastille were their battlefields, and the main force of this confrontation was the Boys' Army and Andes Mountain Hunters on Sean's side, and the Marksmen on the Bastille side.

Arnold is one of them, he is a real Andes mountain people, in his early thirties, he is already considered an advanced age among the Andes mountain people, because at this age, he can already be a grandfather, and Arnold is one of them, Qu Zhi, he is already a father of five children, a grandfather of two children, and a maternal grandfather of one child.

Like most of the Andes mountain people, they formed a small village with their neighbors, living a life of half-farming and half-hunting.

Although most of the time it is more difficult, and the whole family even has to go hungry together in the famine years, but the Andes Mountains are very large, and the deep mountains are also quite rich, as long as the whole family is diligent, life can always go on, which is inseparable from Arnold's superb archery skills and unique hunting skills.
