Chapter 7: Friends

The sky was dark, and the forest had not yet woken up, and large areas were still shrouded in darkness. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The town of Tache, located on the outskirts of this forest, has been called the backyard by generations of people who have lived here. And its official name is apt: Border Woodland.

There is everything you need to live in the town, wood, stone, food, water, etc. Everything here is so vibrant for the people of the town.

However, the other day, everything had changed completely, and the peaceful border woodlands had been invaded by an uninvited guest, whose arrival had caused indelible damage to the place, so that the forest had become dead silent.

Perhaps it will take many years for the after-effects of that uninvited guest to recover.

Although the border woodland has been damaged a lot, the tall and thick trunks and dense foliage are still trying to block the early morning sun, and they also grow freely to block Reggie, who is moving quickly through the forest.

Now this amiable old man has exhaustion written on his face, but even so, he still uses a lot of speed and agility that cannot be matched by the full strength of the A-class, and he is moving quickly in the depths of this oppressive forest.

The old man continued to nimble and dodge all kinds of obstacles, and the luggage on his back also made a dull sound with his movements, which was so incongruous with the dead silence around him.

At the same time, the trio of dark cloaks were still having fun playing.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The gaze was returning to the town of Tache, where there were only two people left.

Loud "Drink!" Ha! The sound kept coming from the small square of the town, and Arvin, who was dressed neatly, had already begun his day's practice.

The female knight held the sword in both hands and waved her arms intently, although it was just some simple and boring movements, but it showed its efficiency and effectiveness.

At this time, when viewed from the side, the whole picture is full of the collision of softness and strength, and the armor that exudes a faint light reflects the soft sunlight of the early morning.

After the strenuous exercise, sweat ran down Alwin's smooth face, and a few strands of blonde hair mischievously stuck to his face. The silly hair swaying in the wind is also the same spirit as ever. When the sun had fully risen, Arwyn exhaled heavily and put away his ornate knightly sword.

However, it wasn't until the end of her practice that she realized that her guide hadn't gotten up yet.

Lying in bed, this is a very bad habit.

After a little cleaning, Arwyn walked outside a shabby log cabin. Yesterday, she watched Xia Zhe enter here to rest.

Speaking of this cabin, it was actually just a small storage room. After Xia Zhe came to this town, because of its low rent, he could only choose to rent here, Aunt Susan was angry several times for this matter, according to her original idea, Xia Zhe should have lived with them.

The small house in front of me has only one floor, and it is rare that there are many neat layers of bluestone on the foundation, which Uncle Jim specially added in order to prevent moisture in the house. Further up, the simple triangular roof is surrounded by long buckets that drain rainwater well. Underneath the bucket, there is a large reservoir with a lot of accumulated rainwater.

Because this wooden house is made of strong and durable adult hemlock trees, even if the house has been used for many years, it only looks dilapidated, does not leak air, does not seep water, and is still very warm. When Uncle Jim rented it to Xia Zhe, he was very reluctant, after all, it took a lot of effort to build this storage room.

Of course, Alwyn didn't know all this, she walked up the steps and knocked lightly on the door, but there was no response from inside. Maybe she couldn't wait, but she only saw a slight muttering or something, and she gently pulled the doorknob and wanted to enter the door directly. It's just that under the powerful power of the female knight, the bolt on the wooden door is like pressing a spring, and it instantly collapses and flies out.

raised his eyebrows, paused for a while, and Alvin, who realized that he had done something bad again, thought: "I can only wait until I get the luggage, and make more compensation to Xia Zhe..."

Stepping into the room of a man I had only known for a day, a faint musty smell hit my nose. With a slight stirring of her nose, the curious knightess began to look at the dimly lit room, the only window tightly closed, and the slightest ray of sunlight shining through the cracks in the wood brought a little life to the dimly lit room. In the small wooden house at a glance, except for the laundry that was thrown everywhere, it was a wooden bed that took up half of the space, and Xia Zhe was wearing small and fresh pajamas made by himself, and he was lying on it in a large shape.

After the female knight determined her goal, she stepped forward and woke up the sleeping Xia Zhe very hard, which Xia Zhe specially instructed her yesterday, she just did it.

Soon, Xia Zhe, who was full of unhappiness, followed Alwin out of the cabin while holding his eyes.

A new day begins.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The sun in the sky was completely exposed, and everything except the darkness in the corners was bathed in light.

"Ah~ Happy time always flies quickly." Old Locke let out a sigh of pity.

"It seems to be like this~" Black Rose stood elegantly to the side, clasping her hands in front of her chest, and two extremely magnificent protrusions were about to emerge.

In mid-air, the runes that had become dark green began to slowly extinguish, and the illusory chains also withdrew their own light, shattering little by little and disappearing from the field of vision of several people. And Caesar, who had lost his restraints, was finally able to fall on the stable ground.

Facing Caesar, whose eyes turned into mosquito coils, Old Locke said refreshedly behind his hands: "Sure enough, there is still room for improvement in this delightful magic technique." ”

Suddenly, old Locke, who was taunting, put away his pleasant expression, and stood in front of Caesar, who had not yet returned to his senses, and protected him behind him. "Someone's coming, my crystal sentry has just sounded the alarm! He's fast. ”

"It's a bit difficult to leave quietly. Hehe~" Hearing Locke's warning, Black Rose still said charmingly.

Old Locke didn't answer, but took out his spherical magician. He looked warily in the direction of the Crystal Sentinel.

A moment later, there was a loud "bang", and at the same time, a huge hemlock tree flew towards the position of the three of them. There is no trace of beauty, there is just endless violence.

However, the huge hidden weapon that smashed into the black cloak trio slammed into a green barrier in mid-air, stirring up countless sawdust.

Seeing that the hidden weapon he threw out was dissolved like this, a thin figure slowly walked out of the stirred dust and mist without pity: "Ahem! I'm sorry, the old man wanted to be polite, but it's not too late, good morning, everyone from the Dark Warband. ”

"Morning~~~Okay~~" Caesar, whose head is estimated to be not very awake now, reflexively replied.

This is the gentlemanly etiquette that he should have as a nobleman of the royal capital. It is also an indelible mark engraved in the depths of his soul. Of course, there are some people who are not in these imprints.

"Bastard! Why are you so polite to others. Old Locke turned around and yelled at Caesar with great excitement. And the original ruthless shape was now completely destroyed by a mess on the ground.

"No~~but~~can~~~! Old man~~~" is another perfect conditioned reflex.

Black Rose silently took two steps to the side, indicating that she didn't know the two well.

"I'm going to make you see the joke." Black Rose pulled back her hood, revealing her blown-up skin. Straight and supple black hair, scattered along the face comparable to a work of art to the waist, a pair of blood-red eyes under her noble and evil appearance, from time to time flashed a look called danger, unconsciously a desire to make people surrender to her feet. And the thin lips, slightly upturned, seemed to carry a strange temptation. Slowly walking forward, with gestures, it seems that she is looking down on everything in the world. Such a woman is simply a contradictory combination, which makes people love and fear, and can't extricate themselves.

Black Rose came up to the old man who was sitting on the throne of the powerhouse at the top of the World Pyramid and let out that sexy and slightly hoarse voice: "Good morning, Lord Lord War Ender, I am really excited to see your true face. ”

Reggie put down the luggage on his body, rubbed his sore shoulders and said: "You're welcome, if I'm still 30 years younger, I can't stand your beautiful little guy, but I can meet three A-class wanted criminals at the same time in this kind of place, if I don't come out and show my face, those old immortals in the association don't know how to arrange me." With that, Reggie bypassed the dangerous black rose, walked to the "murder scene" where the blood had dried up, and asked curiously: "Is this a white trace, did you destroy it?" This is not like your style, it seems that you have made a big scene. ”

Black Rose stretched out her hands and made an innocent expression: "Actually, we just arrived, and I thought it was your old man's masterpiece before~"

Reggie didn't feel like a lie when he heard Black Rose's words, and looked at his old friend curiously.

"That's right. Long time no see, Reggie. The last time I saw you, you were still thinking with your muscles, but you weren't as verbose as you are now. Old Locke decided to ignore the mass on the ground for a moment and concentrate on his old friend.

Reggie looked at his old acquaintance and smiled indifferently: "People are old, they are not so impulsive, and they talk a lot more than before, forgive me." But the last time I saw you, you were taller than meβ€”" he said, gesturing above his head.

The two old friends in front of him, who had not seen him for a long time, made Caesar, who was gradually relieving himself, despise him, and he twisted to the side of the black rose in a very obscene posture, and said softly: "Two hypocritical old men, with black bellies... Oh no, Rose. ”

After catching a glimpse of Black Rose's iconic smile, and thinking of how embarrassed he had been when he was still spinning in the sky, Caesar instinctively changed his words.

The hero didn't suffer the immediate loss, and after reorganizing the language, he asked: "Say hello and go back, are you still going to fight?" For the record, my stomach is still spinning right now, so don't expect me to help you. ”

This old and young are a bit too weird. Black Rose was powerless to complain at this time.

However, she rarely showed her heart, but she still patiently replied: "Hehe~ Listen to old Locke, he is the head." ”

I saw two shriveled old men greeting each other "friendly". The thick smell of gunpowder constantly stimulated the four people present.

"You're still the same as before, and you don't look at the actual situation, Reggie."

"Are you worried about me? Hahaha, old man, I know exactly what I'm doing. ”

Old Locke didn't answer anymore, just wiped the spherical magic guide in his hand with a cold face.

And Old Man Reggie gradually put away his amiable expression.
