And Jerome, who came up, saw Burroughs's strange expression, he immediately knew that Burroughs wanted to be crooked, he waved his hand and said to Burroughs: "Burroughs, don't think about it, how could I act with you because I was afraid of being attacked by demonic beasts." ”

Jerome's cheeks suddenly began to turn red: "What do you say...... You may not know, but I actually like to watch drama performances, and I like to read adventure novels and so on. ”

"Ahh

"It's not the kind of little man book you think, it's a book that tells some adventure story or something!" Jerome explained anxiously.

"Oh, okay, okay, if you say no, it's not, look at your urgency, then you continue to say the previous one. Although Burroughs said this, there was still a smile of disbelief and forbearance on his face.

Jerome can't do anything about Burroughs now, he's not a squad leader anymore, he's a creep anymore, and he's still an unorganized creep......

Jerome ignored Burroughs, coughed and continued: "You haven't seen it, you don't know, in most adventure stories, whenever the protagonists need to be separated from their teammates, they will basically tell the story of what will definitely happen before they are separated, just like you......"

Before Jerome could finish speaking, he saw Burroughs suddenly look behind him with a ghostly expression, he stopped talking, looked back, and just saw the back of a pure black Yaksha demon wolf, isn't the Yaksha demon wolf a demonic beast that likes to sneak attack?

The Yaksha Demon Wolf, a demonic beast that likes to hunt by sneak attack, will give up and continue hunting decisively if it is discovered by the prey during the sneak attack. The reason why the Yaksha wolf is called Yaksha is not because of how intimidating it looks, but because it often hunts at night - it is more likely to sneak up at night, and it has an "X" pattern on its back that is different from other fur colors. This is also the reason why Jerome recognized the Yaksha demon wolf just now when he only saw a back.

"So powerful, do you know the prophecy of those gods?" Burroughs was amazed.

"There's no such thing as prophecy in this world, those gods are just deceiving people, as I said earlier, I read it from a storybook. Jerome turned his hands out.

“...... Looks like I'm going to have to read those adventure books too...... Now in trouble, we will definitely be targeted by this Yaksha demon wolf. It's also strange, aren't the Yaksha demon wolves hunting at night? Burroughs said helplessly.

"Adventure books, I have one here, for you. We only have to be careful about the Yaksha demon wolf, we can't hide from it, it's also a wolf, the wolf has a very smart nose, if you want to kill it, look at its vigilance just now, it is estimated that it will be difficult......" Jerome said as he took out a small book the size of an electrical manual in his armor and handed it to Burroughs.

"Okay, I've got you, and I've got a storybook with me...... Why didn't I see you like that before?" Burroughs didn't take the storybook, he just talked.

"Before, I used to be your commander! Jerome was not annoyed, and took back the storybook, he also knew that Burroughs was a ranger, and the equipment that the ranger carried was carefully calculated, and the sudden addition of a book might affect Burroughs's combat ability.

Burroughs was silent, for he had seen another pile of blood and bones, as well as a bloodstained suit of armor, a crossbow, and a one-handed sword.

Before Burroughs could begin to check, Jerome, who was next to him, saw a pile of the same ...... in the distance

"This is the mercenary with a one-handed sword who likes to play tricks, and the one in the distance is a mercenary with a little big head, the three of them are in a mercenary squad, I didn't expect them to all die here, alas......" Burroughs's eyes were very good, and he could already see that there was an unsheathed one-handed knife next to the pile of bones in the distance.

"Those of them who are mercenaries have long seen through life and death, and they live a life of swords and swords, so don't sigh for them. Jerome said as he rummaged through the pile of flesh as usual, "This arm crossbow is a good thing, but the core part of the ejection is broken and cannot be used." ”

Burroughs: "I'm not lamenting their deaths, I'm wondering why fate is always playing tricks on people." ”

When Jerome heard the word "fate", his heart was gloomy, he had twice actively or passively "defected" to his country, and he felt the impermanence of fate and the difficulty of life the most.

Jerome continued to rummage with his head down and silently to see if there was anything they could use, the one-handed sword was good, better than the mercenary captain's saber, he wiped the blood with a cloth, and hung the one-handed sword with his own officer's saber.

Burroughs, on the other hand, continued his exclamation: "The nobles and emperors can arrange our death at will, and if we want to get a glimmer of hope in life, we need to fight for it with our lives." ”

After Jerome rummaged through everything, he finally found a few Atlantan coins, and many people said that in addition to being well equipped, mercenaries only have the advantage of being able to drink on their stomachs, which is not unreasonable. Jerome didn't dislike it, put the Atlantean coins in his pocket, clapped his hands, and stood up to get out of here.

Burroughs: "Didn't you have a lot to say just now, why are you so quiet now?"

Jerome: "'Who has not died in life since ancient times, leaving Dan to take care of Khan Qing', this sentence came from the Xia Dynasty, which means that life and death are not important, the important thing is "according to Khan Qing", although I don't know what 'Khan Qing' is, but I feel that their life is really good and has goals. And I still don't know what I'm living for......" Jerome paused, looked back into Burroughs' eyes and continued: "Do you really believe in 'fate'?

In the past, Burroughs used to do tasks alone, and at first he was not very accustomed to the sudden addition of Jerome who liked to chat, but at this point in the conversation, he gradually opened up the conversation, because he had also thought about similar problems, but no one could talk to him about this, and now it is a good opportunity.

Burroughs said, "I used to go back and forth between Versailles and the Imperial Capital, and I often wondered why we commoners always had to rely on the nobility and magnates to live, when we were doing everything in our own ......hands," Burroughs said, feeling that it was extremely strange to talk about this in the Warcraft Forest, and decided to give up discussing it and prepare to talk to Jerome later.

"Forget it, I'm a little unclear, I'll have a chance to talk about this later, tell me what you want to do in the future, I want to stop the orcs from going south now, if I'm still alive, I'll go back to Versailles to avenge Jem, if I'm still alive later...... So he went home to take care of his parents and them, and he didn't come out to be a soldier anymore. After Burroughs finished speaking, he continued to walk forward, and he saw another place in front of him where the footprints of the monster were mixed with bloodstains, which was the place where the mage and Vena Mitre rested, but there was no situation in front of the three piles of weapons and equipment scattered on the ground.

"I ......" Jerome wanted to say, he had no family, and revenge on him was not complete, he could not take revenge on the entire Blue Empire alone. But he thought about it and didn't say it, and it felt too much to say it.

"How many of us ...... can we stop the army of orcs?" Jerome felt that Burroughs' idea was also so "confident"...... Eventually, Jerome spat twice without saying anything.

Burroughs didn't care what Jerome wanted to say, because he didn't dare to think about it, for fear that after thinking about it, he would stop and even turn and run away......

"Vena Mittel, they're not dead, they're running that way, shall we chase them?" Burroughs asked, pointing to a set of footprints at Jerome, as he left a mark on a nearby tree that looked peculiar.

Jerome pretended to be angry and said, "Are you asking me? Doesn't your marking mean that you want to chase me......?"

Burroughs: "Uh...... Hehe......"

Jerome: "When you made a pact with Galen and Tank that if we didn't return at a certain time, they would follow the markers to find us, I knew you would be chasing Vena Mitre." ”

Burroughs: "You must have something to say to me when you break them apart, and now is the right time, and it may not be easy to talk after this place." ”

Burroughs's originally serious face suddenly became darkened: "I wanted to say it just now, but I really can't say it......"

Jerome stood still, listening intently to Burroughs.

After Burroughs organized the language, he said to Jerome in a pleading tone: "I want to ask you to take care of Galen and Tank, the matter has nothing to do with you, Galen and Tank, so you don't have to follow me north." Please help me find a good way out for Galen and the tank, Jem...... Jem was killed because of me, and I don't want them to be killed because of me. ”

Jerome didn't say anything for a while, he took the jug out of his waist bag, handed it to Burroughs, and then said, "Drink some?" ”

Burroughs shook his head, he didn't drink a lot, he never wanted to spend money on "tongue desires", and most of his stipends for being a soldier were sent back to his parents.
