Chapter 37: Injuries
The next day, in the early morning, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door.
A middle-aged maid gently pushed open the door, holding a broom in her hand, and was about to walk in, but suddenly found a figure inside.
She was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted, and an uneasy expression rose on her face: "Lord Adil, are you back?"
In the spacious room, a young man was sitting quietly at a wooden table, holding a pale blue rag in his hand, wiping a black sword.
When he saw the maid outside the door, he turned around and looked at the other party: "Come in." ”
"Yes!" the maid nodded respectfully, let go of the apprehension in her heart, and walked carefully into the room.
"You've been cleaning my room all the time I've been away, aren't you?" asked Adiel.
Hearing this, the maid was a little puzzled, but she still nodded and said, "Yes." ”
After a while, Adil continued to ask her a few more questions, and then stood up, took out a few gold coins from the side and put them on the table: "These are your rewards for this time, after you go out, remember to find someone to bring me a breakfast!"
Looking at the few gold coins in front of her, the maid was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to Adier, quickly took the gold coins on the table, and then walked out.
When her figure gradually disappeared from Adiel's sight, Adil stood up and said to himself thoughtfully: "A total of eight days have passed, it seems that the time flow rate of the two worlds should be about the same, so you should pay more attention in the future." ”
He stood in silence for a moment, until the sound of footsteps continued outside the door.
"Adiel, my brother!" came a bold and familiar voice from outside the door.
Under Adil's watchful eye, Erhua, the second son of Count Boria, came from a distance.
He was wearing a red shirt and a long sword around his waist, and he was meticulously organized. At this time, with a sincere smile on his face, he quickly walked towards Adiel.
Seeing the other party gradually approaching, Adil had to show a kind smile: "Erhua, why are you here?"
"I just came back two days ago, and as soon as I arrived at the castle, I heard the news of your promotion to knight. ”
Elvar walked up to Adil, patted him on the shoulder, and looked at him with concern, "Where have you been all this time? ”
The moment his hand was on Adiel's shoulder, Adiel's body tightened, and he instinctively wanted to rise up and shake him off.
He reacted quickly, forcibly suppressed the impulse in his heart, and explained quietly: "I went to the forest for a while. ”
"Some time ago, I asked the hunters around here to help me collect some materials, so I went out on purpose before, and I haven't come back until now. ”
Erhua didn't doubt anything about this explanation, but just smiled and said, "The next time you leave the castle, remember to talk to the castle guards." Now it is no more chaotic than before, and it is more or less dangerous to stay outside for too long. ”
Artis nodded, and then asked with some curiosity, "Has the battle situation on the front line reached this point?
"Not really. Elvar smiled: "Although the battle on the front line is still deadlocked, according to the news that has come, it is almost over." ”
"However, although most of the orcs have been suppressed, it seems that there are still some small tribes that have gone south, mixed in from the border, and wreaked havoc everywhere during this time. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, and then said, "The group of orcs you met with the Flal knights last time should be one of these orc tribes going south, and now they have all run into the territory of the nobles of the Northlands, which has caused us a lot of trouble during this time. ”
After saying this, he continued to pat Adil on the shoulder: "You can rest here for a while, in two days there may be an order to come down and let you lead the team to suppress those scattered orcs." ”
Adil nodded, and sent Elvar all the way to the door, only to stop.
Two days later, as Erhua said, after knowing that Adil had returned to the castle, Count Polya gave the order and transferred Adil directly.
Early in the morning, Adil rode a white horse and quietly walked to a flat field outside the castle.
There, a group of fighters is already assembled and is lining up there. And in the midst of this, Adil saw a familiar figure.
At the front of the procession, there was a tall and majestic middle-aged knight, dressed in black armor, with a serious expression on his majestic face.
"Lord Flal!"
The moment he saw the middle-aged knight, Adil quickly walked to the front of the group and shouted at the knight.
Hearing a familiar shout, Flal turned to look at Adil, with a smile on his face: "Adier, long time no see." ”
"It's been a long time. Adil said to the other with a respectful smile on his face.
As he spoke, he shouted into the chip in his mind: "Chip, analyze the other party's body data." ”
In an instant, the chip in his mind responded to him.
"Name: Flal. Power: 3.3 (4.7). Dexterity: 3.1 (4.4). Constitution: 3.3 (4.5). ”
Looking at this value, Adil sighed in his heart.
Up to now, it has been more than half a month since the last battle, and the sequelae of the opponent's life seed explosion have not completely disappeared. If you don't count the Life Seed Burst, the opponent's current combat power is not even as good as a knight who has just been promoted.
To some extent, this also shows the embarrassment of Count Boria, who even had to send out a knight who was seriously wounded, which shows that there are indeed not many people left to use.
Of course, this is true of Flal, and Adil is not much better.
"Name: Adil Fakus. Power: 3.5 (5.1). Dexterity: 3.3(5). Constitution: 3.7 (5.3). ”
This is the result of Adil's previous explosion of life seeds, and although the data is a little better, it is actually more tragic than Fulal.
After all, his physical fitness is much higher than that of the other party, and being reduced to the way he is now is enough to show the seriousness of the consequences.
Thinking of this, Adil silently stretched out his hand to his waist, took out a black crystal nucleus from it, and squeezed it tightly in the palm of his hand.
The familiar warm current slowly flowed from the crystal nucleus to all parts of his body, improving his physical fitness while also accelerating the healing of his physical injuries.
"It's coming, it's coming..."
Silently walking to the side of the line, feeling the changes in his body, Adil whispered to himself.
He had a strong premonition in his heart that when his physical injuries were completely healed, perhaps that would be when he was promoted to Grand Knight.
