Chapter 1 Crossing (Seeking Collection)

Next Chapter

Barren paths, the crimson sun radiates light and heat under the sky, illuminating the surrounding heaven and earth.

In the place where the vegetation is flourishing, a small sound gradually comes from the front.

Click!

The long procession was moving forward, and the wheels of the carriage collided with the stones on the side of the road from time to time, making a sound of collision, which also caused the carriage to vibrate from time to time.

The groom driving in front of him was a middle-aged man with calloused hands, and after finding that the carriage had been shaken by the stones, he looked very carefully at the back of the carriage, as if he was a little afraid of waking up the people behind him.

Behind the carriage, a boy lay quietly on the golden hay, with several cracked wounds on his body, and although it had been treated simply, blood continued to flow out of it, staining the soft hay beneath him red.

As if affected by the shock of the carriage, the cracked wound on the boy's body was touched, causing the boy's originally calm face to suddenly become hideous, and it seemed that he had suffered extremely intensely.

"What's wrong?"

From behind came the low whistling of horses, and the deep voice of a big man.

One of the knights who was escorting the procession saw the carriage stop and rode up to question the groom.

"My lord, the axle of the carriage seems to be broken, and it will take a little time to repair it. ”

The groom looked embarrassed, looked at the knight in front of him, and said in a low voice.

Hearing this, the knight's brows furrowed suddenly: "It's really troublesome. ”

It was already noon, and the knight looked up at the sky, feeling the scorching heat and the faint sound of tired gasps around him, and finally ordered the team to stop for a while, rest in a shady area, and eat at the same time.

When the order was given, the soldiers who were traveling around showed excited expressions, and some couldn't wait to find a place to rest for a while.

However, even if they couldn't wait, their vigilance never lowered. After staying, he deliberately sent several knights to explore the surroundings in order to eliminate some dangers and traps around him.

But after the previous collision of the carriage, the people in the carriage had begun to wake up at this time.

Stimulated by the pain sensation on his body, Chen Ming gradually opened his eyes.

Tired, painful, uncomfortable!

After his mind cleared up, the pain and exhaustion in his body clearly reached Chen Ming's mind, which made his will sober up all of a sudden, and he instantly gasped.

"I... Where?"

Feeling the exhaustion and pain on his body, as well as the fiery sensation conveyed from various wounds, this doubt rose in Chen Ming's heart, and then a large number of memories began to pour into his mind, completely covering his thoughts at this time.

This is the memory of a thirteen-year-old boy named Adil for the rest of his life.

In his memory, Adil was born into a family of ordinary barons, the sole heir of a real baron with a territory. Because he showed good knightly talent since he was a child, he was sent to the castle of Count Boria, the same clan of Adiel's father, two or three years ago, to undergo training.

In this area, Count Polya is the absolute ruler. As a kindred of the Count of Boria, Adil's father naturally moved closer to the earl, so he sent the successor to the castle at an early age, on the one hand, to undergo better training and education, and on the other hand, to show his loyalty.

Some time ago, the scattered orc tribes in the north suddenly invaded the territory of the kingdom of Ariel, as the commander of the northern lords, the lord of Boria sent an army to resist the orc invasion with the surrounding lords, and the thirteen-year-old Adil went out with the army, but he rushed too far in the battle, and was surrounded and injured by several orc warriors, and finally died with a whimper, and was occupied by Chen Ming.

At this point, the tiredness that came from time to time in his mind gradually subsided, and was replaced by a cool feeling that emerged after the blazing heat, which made the tormented Chen Ming's will sober up.

"Sure enough, it crossed again. ”

Feeling the memories that sprung up in his mind, as well as the intense pain from the wounds on his body, Chen Ming reluctantly raised his arm and touched his face.

There was something condensed on his face, and Adil wiped it hard, and found that it was all dried and coagulated blood, from his right ear down to his chin, making him very uncomfortable.

Not only on his face, but also on his chest, left arm, and right thigh, there were several large wounds, exuding intense pain. The blood was almost all over the body, and it was not cleaned in any way.

This discovery surprised him, and he instinctively wanted to stand up, but found that he had no strength at all, so he could only hold on to the edge of the carriage with his relatively good right hand, and barely sit up on the carriage.

"Damn... What's wrong with this world, even a thirteen-year-old child has to go to war with orcs who don't seem to be ordinary people. ”

Holding on to the edge of the carriage, Chen Ming barely supported half of his body, feeling the pain and exhaustion from the madness on his body, and thinking a little weakly.

In the memory of my mind, there are still remnants of the scene of the original owner of this body fighting those orcs, which is very profound because it happened not long ago.

In my memory, although those orcs did not have intact steel armor and their faces were as hideous as beasts, they were all muscular and tall, and they were generally two meters tall, which alone looked like a terrifying deterrent.

In fact, the combat power of these orcs is indeed worthy of their stature and appearance. Even if they are not trained, with their far superior strength and physique, they can match the soldiers covered in armor with only rough leather armor, and if they are not scarce in number, they are not at all comparable to ordinary armies.

However, even such a terrifying orc is not invincible in Adiel's memory.

Adiel's terrifying wound was caused by the siege of several orcs, but before that, he had killed at least a few orcs, and finally he was surrounded by several orc warriors because he rushed too forward.

And the root of all this is that this world has the top power of knights.

"Knight's Breathing..."

Carefully recalling the memories in his mind, a unique training method appeared in Chen Ming's heart, making him can't help but whisper.

"Lord Adier, are you awake?" A voice suddenly came from front of him, with a sense of surprise that broke Chen Ming's thoughts.

It was a middle-aged man in shining armor, with a long beard, not short hair coiled up directly, looking like he hadn't taken care of it for a long time, looking at Chen Ming's body sitting up at this time, he shouted with some surprise.

He seemed to be the leader of this team, and at this time, looking at Chen Ming's pale face and slightly cracked wounds, he hurriedly commanded several other people to go over, helped Chen Ming up carefully, and then walked down with his arms.

The people here are either some warriors or some horsemen, naturally they are not delicate and gentle characters, and they are all rough and rough, which makes the wounds on Chen Ming's body suddenly touch.

"Shhh

Feeling the throbbing pain on his body, Chen Ming gasped violently, and his consciousness, which had been a little sluggish due to exhaustion and excessive blood loss, suddenly woke up again.

He barely looked up, barely stood up with the help of others, and looked around.

There were several carriages around, all of which were quietly parked in the shade of the trees to avoid direct sunlight.

Behind these carriages, figures like corpses lay quietly on them, each with a large amount of blood on their bodies, without the slightest movement, looking terrifying.

Among these figures, Artis also recognized several people from Adil's memory, either the children of nobles like him, or some young knight apprentices. They are all characters who are not important, but they are not ordinary people.

Looking at such a situation, Chen Ming had a faint realization in his heart.

The task of this team is to transport back a character like him, who is not too low-status and has been seriously injured on the battlefield.

Chen Ming also observed that except for his one, the carriages around him were basically carrying several wounded people in one car.

This is also good news, at least it shows his status in this group of people, and he should be regarded as the top group.

"Adiel, from now on, I'll call it that. ”

Following the customs, Chen Ming read the name twice in his heart, and then made this decision.

In front, several warriors took some dry rations from the carriage and handed them directly to Adil after a simple cut.

The dry food was hard and unpalatable, and tasted as bad as rotten meat. Because it was placed on the carriage that transported the wounded, and it was still stained with the blood of those seriously injured, Adiel's face was a little unpleasant.

On the opposite side of Adiel, it seemed that he saw Adil's embarrassment, and the previous leader explained to Artis: "It's still the time to fight, it's not suitable to light a fire, just wait for this part of the journey." ”

Adil grabbed the dry food in his hand with his uninjured right hand, and didn't say anything, just nodded understandingly.

The wild environment of this world is too dangerous, not only is it full of all kinds of dangerous beasts, but there are also all kinds of thieves and robbers wreaking havoc in the wild, not to mention that it is still a time of war, and there may be scattered orc troops roaming in the wild. The smoke formed by rashly igniting a fire is likely to attract these dangers and create unnecessary danger to the team.

Thinking about this, in order to recover the injuries and physical strength on his body quickly, Adil forcibly pressed the nausea in his heart, and ate the dry food stained with dried blood in his hand.

In the same place, the group rested quietly in the shade of the trees for a while, and after the sun outside looked a little smaller, with the order of the leader with his hair coiled, Adil once again sat in the carriage full of peculiar smells, accompanied by the bumps along the way, watching the scenery on the road continue to spread backwards.
