Seeing that Thor was thoughtful and finished his memory docking, Shogues leaned in and put his arm around Thor's shoulders and raised his eyebrows.

"How's our friendship going?"

Thor turned his head to look at Shogues's obscene appearance, and he didn't know what this guy was thinking, so he could only answer with a serious face.

"Friendship?Is there such a thing between us? Maybe a little, but it is estimated to be fragile, and it is likely to be broken suddenly by a little twist and turn, so I want you to cherish it. ”

Shogues spread his hands indifferently, and then took the initiative to unravel the mystery.

"Miss Bertha has sent you an invitation to visit the Mansion of the Lord of Newtown......"

Before Shoggers could finish speaking, Thor's brow furrowed.

If the little matter of the cleaning incident hadn't been suddenly mentioned by Shogues today, in Saul's life and memory, maybe it wouldn't even be a bubble on the water, and Saul believed that it would have been the same for that Miss Bertha.

Even if she was young at the time, she should have already understood that little thing was not worth mentioning when she grew up today.

And even if she really wanted to show some kindness with gratitude, it should have been earlier, not after five years of revisiting the old matter and sending another inexplicable invitation.

Saul has always been very precise about his identity, and he never hopes for any extra good luck.

Two people with huge disparities in status, who don't even live in the same town, and haven't had any exchanges in the past five years, this sudden invitation is really interesting......

Seeing Thor's wary look, Shogues raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

"It's not that complicated, she went to the monastery today, and then received the bishop's blessing in the small hall. It is said that in addition to participating in the routine sacrifice on behalf of the lord's family, she also invited the children of several powerful families in Grey Curtain Town to visit the new town as guests. ”

"Later, it seemed that in the middle of everyone's small talk, for some reason, the topic suddenly turned to your old thing. Perhaps out of the dignity and cultivation of the nobility, Bertha asked the chief nun about your news and current situation, and then sent an invitation by the way. ”

"At that time, I happened to pass by the auditorium and listened, and I heard that it was related to you, so I took the initiative to take over this errand to deliver the news. ”

Listening to Shogues's explanation, Saul breathed a sigh of relief, maybe he really thought too much.

By the way, it seems to be good news all of a sudden.

Thor wasn't interested in the Lord's Mansion, but it was exciting to be able to visit Newtown.

Magic Hourglasses, Spells, Adventurer's Guides...... Those things have been coveted by Sol for a long time, but it's a pity that Newtown has to sell, and it just happens that he has just had an extra dividend in his hand, and Sol is ready to take this opportunity to go to Newtown to make a big purchase.

Waiting for the excitement to cool down, Thor turned to Shogues a little strangely and asked:

"Since you invited me, what are you excited about?"

Caught off guard, Shoggers rolled his eyes in a choked manner, and immediately came up with a big dog head with a smile on his face.

"Yes, Miss Bertha is worried about your lonely journey, so she has been very considerate enough to allow you to bring a friend with you. There is no doubt that this place will inevitably be created between me and Erin. ”

"After much deliberation, I believe that there is a great danger to the randomness of the wilderness, and I have an obligation to take the risk for Erin and protect you at the same time. ”

Saul looked at Xiugus amusedly, this guy had been talking about friendship for so long, it turned out that he was waiting here.

As for the statement that you can bring one more person, Sol also knew in an instant, if Bertha invited herself alone, it would inevitably have an ambiguous taste, and bringing more people would naturally eliminate those unnecessary suspicions.

"Well, whether Ireen wants to go or not, I'll ask her first. Saul replied.

After nightfall, Thor took Erin to the bottom of the well.

"I might be out of town for a few days, you should know, right?" asked Thor.

Erin nodded, then twisted her little head to the side in feigned anger.

"I know, you once saved the life of the lord's daughter, and now that she has grown up, she has come to repay you for the help you have given, and it has long been spread throughout the town. ”

Thor listened to Erin's strange words with some amusement, and it was clear that the damn guy at Shugues was maliciously distorting the truth again.

After explaining the situation in general, Thor helped Erin get a haircut.

"Do you want to go to Newtown? The main thing is that I don't feel like I have any strength when you're not there, and I don't know if I'll be able to come back alive. ”

Erin threw herself into Thor's arms and hugged him, her head arching over Thor's chest.

"I'm not allowed to talk nonsense, although it is more rewarding to be able to go on a long trip together than a normal date, but I don't think I'm going. Didn't you say that you would take me for a walk on the beach in the future? When the time comes, just the two of us, even if we accidentally die together in the wilderness, I will die laughing. ”

Thor actually doesn't really want Erin to go to Newtown, danger is only one aspect, and those peers with powerful families along the way will inevitably cast all kinds of eyes. It didn't matter if he and Suggoth had two stubborn faces, but Thor didn't want Erin to bear those senseless stares.

At this moment, listening to Erin talk about the seaside, Thor suddenly felt the urge to lead her into the wilderness immediately.

Rubbing her chin twice against the hair on top of Erin's head, Erin suddenly lifted her head against Thor's chest.

"What about my bar mitzvah?"

Thor scratched her little nose.

"Fool, we will stay in the new town for a day or two at most, counting the distance back and forth, isn't there still half a month left for your coming-of-age ceremony? By the way, I have an important matter for you to ask you to come over today. ”

Thor pulled Erin to two small cages in the corner of the well.

"During the time I'm away, it's up to you to take care of them. Also, if there is any trouble or difficulty that you two sisters can't handle during this time, go to Lorton and Valle for help. Thor said, pointing to the two cowering cranial rats in the cage.

Erin nodded, and the whole person was already squatting down with a smile in her eyes, grabbing the grass roots prepared next to her and starting to feed the skull rats.

When they came to dinner that day, the three maidens showed great interest in the two little things, and their faces were full of love, and they did not care about the danger no matter how much the boys emphasized the danger.

Thor had wanted to entrust the care of Valle to them, but considering that the boys were generally careless and afraid that they would forget to feed, it was more reassuring to simply leave it to Erin.

Speaking of skull rats, the food that Thor prepared that day included a vegetable stew of skull rat meat.

Originally, Thor didn't move a bite, but since he saw the scene of old Buddy Moore being eaten by rats in the cold winter, Thor suddenly had an inexplicable fear of mice, or psychological disgust.

It wasn't until Erin forked a piece of skull rat meat and sent it to Saul's mouth to forcibly feed it, that Thor desperately told himself in his heart that the skull rat was not a mouse, it was a monster, and unlike the sewer rat, eating it could also enhance his physique.

After some self-paralysis, Thor finally barely opened his mouth...... Oh, the meat is simmering and tastes so good.

Two days passed quickly, and on the day the lord's daughter, Miss Bertha, left town, Thor and Shogues showed up at the end of the line on time.

They had planned to carry a cloth bag on their backs, but Covill and Erin helped them each add a strap to the cloth bag, which could then be worn cross-body, which was a lot easier, but it looked a little weird.

I don't know what Shogues was carrying, Thor had prepared some emergency food and water in his cloth bag, brought a little bit of various potions, and all sixty silver wolves with him. As for the weapon, Thor only carried his own sword, not even a shield.

In the past, when someone in the town wanted to leave the town, they would usually join a caravan with an escort or form their own adventure party, but Shugues and Thor were also in the light of the lord this time.

In addition to the twenty members of the escort, there were Bertha, her maids, and attendants, as well as seven or eight powerful children of several families in the town, and among all of them, only Rianna was barely half an acquaintance of Thor and Shugues.

Of the three carriages, Bertha and her servants occupied the first, and the children of the families and Shoguethsol shared the latter two.

Twenty guards lined up on either side of the team, and although all of them had first-order strength, Thor and Shogues, who had experience in adventure, knew very well that this trip would not escape Lorton's luck after all.

The entire team totaled more than thirty people, and they marched towards the wilderness.
