Chapter 49: Wandering
The dark, damp dungeon is full of fleas. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info23us.Updated fastest Sebastian lay quietly, he didn't know how long he had slept or how many days he had spent in the dungeon.
Pain in the legs and hands is still there.
"Your Majesty. Sebastian was wearing a blouse, and the twin towers corrugated pendant around his neck was nowhere to be found. His exposed arms looked strong and powerful, and he could tell that he was exercising.
"Your Majesty the Regent. Ivana stood up, her heart beating slightly, she raised her head, and said, "It's hot, it's too hot in the house, so I have to take Caesar to the lake to cool off." ”
Caesar by the lake is playing in the water in the company of maids. He laughed and looked carefree.
Sebastian frowned, looked up at the sun, and said, "The university will usher in a long summer this year, and it will be as hot as it is now for six months from June. ”
"Oh my God, unimaginable. Ivana shook her head, she pulled her collar, revealing her snow-white neck and hemisphere, already sweating profusely.
Sebastian looked at Caesar by the lake for a long time.
Caesar clapped his hands and put two ducks into the water, and he was holding a "swimming competition" for them.
"Caesar had a great time. Ivana broke the silence. Since the last quarrel, Sebastian has rarely spoken to her. She knew he was dissatisfied, because she had manipulated Isaac to get Isaac into the Imperial Council.
"The Great Prince is awake. Sebastian muttered.
"I know. He didn't say a word, staring at the ceiling in a daze all day. He did not eat or drink, and his face became more and more emaciated. Ivana recalled that when she saw Brandt, no matter how Caesar shouted, Brandette did not respond, and the scholar brought the medicine to him, and he pursed his mouth, and the medicine flowed from his lips to his neck.
Sebastian sighed heavily, frowned, and said, "He can't accept reality. When I woke up, I found that my legs were constantly calling, and I was paralyzed from the waist down. ”
He cried and cried for His Majesty the Emperor, but learned that he had accidentally injured his father, and His Majesty the Emperor was seriously injured and died. Ivana shook her head lightly and sighed.
Sebastian continued, as if casually speaking: "His Majesty's breastplate is broken, and no one could have imagined that such a thing would happen." ”
"My fault, at that time I would have been desperate to prevent the eldest prince from participating in the team competition. Ivana lowered her head and looked at the ants on the ground. Ludwig had an opportunity.
Sebastian said meaningfully, "yes, that's a coincidence. ”
Ivana didn't know how to pick up the conversation. What did Sebastian discover? He was testing me?
"Barlando is located in a basin surrounded by mountains on all sides. Isaac opened a chicken leg and stuffed it to Veretta, "I've loved to climb mountains, but I'm better at running than climbing." I like to sprint up the hill and down again. But I'm not content to run the hill near the castle, I'll run the house. ”
(As usual, haha)
"Runaway?" Veretta looked at Isaac in surprise.
"The castle is built on a hill and is undulating, and you haven't seen the scenery from above. From the castle house, you can see the mountain in the distance. I'll take the corn with me, and the crows will fly over. Isaac pondered, "My nurse is worried to death, and my father scolds me for being a thief who walks on the wall." Because I was lying on my stomach at the window and saw ...... Ahem...... You know. ”
Veretta looked at Isaac suspiciously, the chicken leg stained the grease of her hand, and asked, "I don't understand, what do you see?"
"Oh my God, every boy is curious in adolescence. Isaac blushed suddenly, "The house is very high, and in some places you can see the windows below, and you can see the people in the windows. I saw my sister change her clothes. ”
"Hooligans!" Veretta blushed and said indignantly, her heart pounding as she took a bite of the chicken thigh.
"Hey, everyone else is looking at me. Isaac said aggrievedly, "I was only 14 years old at the time, and my sister was 18 years old. Gee. I didn't mean to. ”
"Yes. Sebastian is suave and upright. As soon as Isaac arrived at Sebastian, his tone became respectful, "When he was prime minister, he had a good reputation among the people at the bottom, and when I first came to Thundercastle, I heard the craftsmen praise him for the elaborate design of the city, and the old women in the slums praised him for his compassion for the people." ”
"Oh?" Vireta followed Isaac into the fruit section of the shopping street.
"In May, there was a flood in the Suluz Canal, and the river poured into the slums, and guess what? His Majesty the Regent personally led the rescue overnight. Isaac exclaimed, "Lead the team personally!"
"He's such a funny guy. "Veretta's impression of Sebastian is limited to the last petition. The man with long flaxen hair sitting on the Thunder Throne was polite and clear-sighted.
"Interesting, that's just the word?" Isaac tilted his eyebrows, "I think he's upright, fair, and incorruptible." Well, if it's really interesting, I'm still single at 40 years old. ”
Veretta furrowed her brows and said, "I hope yours is true, and the regent is honest and fair." ”
Isaac retracted his smile and said, "I swear to the Old Gods that the Lord Regent is a good man, and he will do justice to the actions of the Rundstedt family. ”
"Your Majesty is looking for the Earl to catch up?" Veretta couldn't help but ask, "The Lord Regent also has something to talk to the Earl, do you know what it is?"
Isaac scratched his head and said, "Well, I really don't know. Maybe they knew each other before, anyway, before Count Rundstedt arrived, Count Arryn and you really won't be able to leave. ”
Veretta was silent. Isaac is right, she can only write to Duke Karen now, report the situation, and then wait for His Majesty the Regent's ruling.
"Hey! Look, Apple!" Isaac shouted in joy and rushed to the apple stall.
Veretta looked at Isaac alive. Sam looked at the smiling William and put the mint leaf in his mouth, the cool fragrance filling his mouth and soaking his heart. I should think about it, new Captain Sam. He was almost bent over by the title.
At lunchtime, most people gather in the long hall. The novice riot of the previous few days seems to have passed, and everything has calmed down.
"William, what do you want to do with the palm of the giant you brought back?" Lange ate an astonishing amount of food, and asked for two steaks, a mushroom soup, and a long bread for lunch.
"I wanted to do research and look at the body structure of giants. William frowned, "But it's already starting to rot." At least from the current situation, the body structure is not much different from that of us humans. ”
Sam thought for a moment and said, "I thought these giants were intellectually inferior, but according to Jonathan, they have the king of giants, they have magnificent palaces, and the words are like roars. In other words, in addition to being inferior to us in terms of equipment and intelligence, they also have a well-established leadership organization and language. ”
Ed laboriously dragged his right leg to his left foot to make himself sit more comfortably: "Unexpected surprise, isn't it? Do you want to negotiate with the King of Giants?"
The short sword is in the hand, and it is windy when it is swung. Move your left foot, step back, parry, turn, raise your shield, and block. Squat, roll forward, sword stab forward. A set of actions is fluid.
Kassiu's eyes had adapted to the darkness, and he could see everything around him clearly, the short swords, shields, and armor doped with arcane crystals faintly glowing purple in the darkness.
"Awesome, awesome. Thorne exclaimed, "Cassiu, how did you turn a spear into a shield and a sword?"
"I'm an iron magician, and I change the form of iron to respond to different situations. Cassius inserted the dagger into the scabbard and replied, "The greatsword has the most attack power, the spear has the longest attack range, the short sword and shield have the most balance of attack and defense, the double short sword attacks most frequently, and the double shield or giant shield has the highest defense. ”
Nora, the son of the forest, squatted on the ground, watched Kasiu finish a full set of movements, blinked, and said, "Your weapons and armor are not made of pure iron. ”
"Yes, they were crafted with Arcane Crystals. Cassius patted Nora on the head, "You're observing. ”
Nora pushed Kaxiu's hand away and pouted, "Take your hands away, I'm not a child." ”
"Oh, sorry, get used to it. "After Casthew's body recovered, so did his sense of humor.
Nora stood up and touched Cassiu's shield, she closed her eyes and pricked up her ears, and after a while, she said, "No, you humans call it the Arcane Crystal, and here we call it the Essence of Pain." ”
"Spooky name. Thorne interjected, and he stood up, "I'll go get some food, Cassiu, I really admire you, I'm used to eating raw meat now." ”
A hint of bitterness slipped through Cassiu's throat, and he forced himself to eat raw meat, and after a week of diarrhea, vomiting, and high fever, his collapsed body actually adapted to the environment. After that, he focused on regaining the mobility of his limbs.
"Thorne......" Cassius looked at Nora and stopped Thorne, "How long have I been here?"
Thorne walked over to the root of the tree against the wall, counted the accumulated leaves, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's June 8th, exactly one month from the day Nora brought you back." ”
That is, on May 8th, we escaped from the Giant's Cave and I was severely wounded by the Rangers. Cassius calculated, if nothing else, William and the others should have reached the Great Wall.
"Nora, Thorne, thank you for taking care of me. Cassius looked at the two companions, "I must go, back to the Great Wall." ”
Thorne shook his head desperately, "No, you shouldn't go back!" Thorne picked up his short sword and stabbed at Katheu.
Cassius was taken aback, a cold light flashing in the darkness, and he blocked it with his shield. Thorne doesn't have a lot of strength and moves slowly, and if Cassiu is serious, he can settle Thorne in three rounds.
"You're not allowed to go out! they're going to kill you, they're going to find me, kill me!" Thorne's voice trembled, and he said what was on his mind.
Cassius used his shield to block Thorne's attack, and he shouted, "Stop! Thorne! I must go back, the giants have awakened, I must go back to help them." ”
Thorne stopped attacking, he shook his head: "No, they killed you, thinking you were dead. Why are you going to help them?"
"Misunderstandings, all misunderstandings. Cassius adjusted his position and replied, "The giant is closing in, and Grant doesn't want to die in pain, so he wants me to give him pleasure." I must be clear to them that I am not a traitor. ”
Thorne's eyes widened, and he attacked again: "You're going to betray me!"
This attack was harder than before, but it was like an itch to Cassiu, and he swung his shield hard, knocking Thorne's short sword away, and shouted, "Enough, Thorne, you should be sober: you can't do anything about Otto's death, stop blaming yourself." When you know it, no one will think you're a deserter. ”
Nora walked up to Kasiu, pulled Lacasiu's clothes, and asked, "You're all going to leave me?"
Cassiu crouched down, pressed one hand on Nora's shoulder, and whispered, "I must go, Nora." The giants have woken up, and the empire is threatened. (To be continued.) )
