Chapter 84: The Robbers in the Woods (5)
It turned out that Cohen had already made two preparations, one move 'Thunder Extermination' to attack Lloyd, and the other hand took advantage of Lloyd's attention to be on his own punch and ripped off Lloyd's beard.
Cohen raised the fake mustache in his hand and laughed loudly, but the laughter came from his hoarse voice, which was really flattering and very weird.
As if to match Cohen's laughter, a gust of wind blew, the woods whined, and countless dead leaves danced wildly in the wind, as if in celebration of Cohen.
"I didn't expect you to find out. ”
Lloyd was not surprised that Patrick had planted it on his hand, and it was not difficult to think of himself, but he was still angry.
In order to find out the identity of the people in the carriage, Lloyd made a careful plan.
After the battle with Church was interrupted, he pretended to leave in a bad mood, taking advantage of the moment when everyone's attention was distracted.
The four Lloyds had their own division of labor, one of them using a small crossbow bolt not far from the carriage to create the illusion that the horses were suddenly frightened, and the other two stood guard on the road at each end to prevent others from entering the woods.
Lloyd, on the other hand, disguised as a bearded robber, entered the carriage under the pretext of robbery, and found out if the people inside were her.
In this way, Fei Zhouzhang is only to find out the identity of a person, and Lloyd has no way, yesterday in the courtyard of the Knights of the Guards, he wanted to politely go up and inquire, but who knew that there was almost a fight.
After that, the people of the Mason School of Magic were like thieves guarding against Lloyd, not saying that it was Joanna's carriage, even if it was within ten steps of the people who were close to the Mason School of Magic, they would be immediately warned to leave.
Wearing a beard is also the last fig leaf that Lloyd prepared for himself, in case he finds out that it is not her, then he can also push everything to the robbers, and he will not have a half-dime relationship with the young hero of the empire - Lloyd.
The last fig leaf was torn off, and Lloyd was furious, saying, "I didn't intend to take your life, but now you forced me." ”
Lloyd stepped forward slowly, picked up the knife that had fallen to the ground, and walked towards Cohen with murderous intent in his eyes.
The threat of death Cohen has seen a lot lately, and Cohen doesn't expect to be able to avoid it safely like the previous times, but his mentality is not as fearful as before.
Cohen, gasping for air, held the carriage and tried to stand as straight as possible to face this last moment.
Cohen's final blow inflicted heavy damage on Lloyd, but Cohen was even more seriously injured, and now he can only barely stand, and he has no strength to fight again.
On the other hand, Lloyd, both physically and strongly, is stronger than Cohen, and although he is also weak at the moment, he is still much stronger than Cohen.
Lloyd walked ten meters in front of Cohen, but stopped, looked straight at the carriage behind Cohen, and turned his head to follow Lloyd's gaze, and a graceful figure appeared in Cohen's field of vision.
Without a black gauze hat to cover her face, Princess Novia appeared directly in front of the two.
"Lloyd, I suppose you're looking for me. ”
"Sure enough, it's you, Novia. ”
"I came out secretly this time, and I didn't want to reveal my identity. ”
"We're here to attack the lair of the Blood Hades Temple, and this operation is dangerous, so you shouldn't come. ”
"But I'm already here. ”
"I'll arrange for someone to take you back to Santana. ”
"I'm not going back, I'm going with you, you've been checking for so long, and you still haven't rescued Brother Erwang, I don't believe you. ”
"You're just a high-level magician, what's the use of you going?"
"I know Brother Erwang well, and with me here, you can discover a lot of things that you can't discover, and it will definitely help this operation. ”
"This operation is presided over by Cardinal Quleton, and it will definitely save His Highness Orion. ”
"With Cardinal Quleton here, what danger will I have?"
Lloyd looked embarrassed, he had already thought about confirming Novia's identity, so he sent her back to Santana City, but he didn't expect Novia's attitude to be so tough.
Did you forcibly send her back?
It's not what Lloyd wants, he really likes Novia.
As the son of the prime minister of the empire, he has no shortage of wealth and status, and his daily hard work is only because Novia once said that the person she wants to marry in the future must at least be an earth knight.
At the time of this, Novia was only ten years old, and it was only out of worship for the strong.
She knew that in order for a person to reach the level of an earth knight, he would be forty or fifty years old.
Everyone thought what she said was a joke, except for Lloyd, who practiced hard and finally became a great sword master.
It's still far from being an Earth Knight, but Lloyd believes he will become one.
Seeing that Novia was so determined to go with him, Lloyd relented and said, "You have to promise me that you will not be able to participate in the battle. ”
"Okay. ”
When the stone in his heart finally landed, Lloyd felt much more relaxed, pointed at Cohen, and continued: "This is your guard, he is very good. ”
"It's just Joanna's coachman, not my bodyguard. ”
"Then why does he keep guarding the carriage, isn't he protecting you?"
"I'm curious about this too. ”
Lloyd frowned, and said to Cohen: "Your strength should be at the level of a swordsman, and you are not very old, but you stooped down to be a coachman, who are you, let me see your true face." ”
When Lloyd was about to step forward to unveil Cohen's mask, Cohen waved his hand and unveiled the mask himself, but the real face was not shown to Lloyd, but Joanna was seen alone, and then quickly covered his face.
"Branch ......"
Novia's face was stunned, she didn't expect Cohen to appear here, and just as she was about to call out his name, she saw Cohen put his index finger to his mouth and made a booing motion.
After understanding what Cohen meant, Novia didn't say Cohen's name and continued, "Why are you here. ”
Cohen shook his head helplessly and pointed to his mouth, indicating that he couldn't speak.
Lloyd said with a question mark on his face: "Novia, do you know him?"
"Yes, he's a friend of mine. ”
"Then you just said you didn't know. ”
"I was mistaken. ”
"Alright then, we should go back, after coming out for so long, the people in the team should be in a hurry. ”
After a few more words with Novia, Lloyd handed Cohen a bottle of potion and said, "This is a vial of life recovery potion that can heal your injuries." ”
He put Joanna and Barney in the carriage and left.
