Chapter 23: The Distant Wind, a Visitor from the Sea (1)

The plan to move out of Bena's house was put on hold because of his sudden illness that day, and in order to cure him, I improved Eve's potion again, and the second thing was to strengthen his physique, and repairing and strengthening the meridians in his body was the right way.

In the fall, the mercenary group began to organize people to donate money to Barron's Gladiator Academy.

It is a closed fighter academy built on an oasis in the desert of Todai 6, and in addition to fighting training, the students inside will also be trained in physical combat.

There is no access to transportation and the climate is harsh, and students have to work guò to get food and groceries for the day.

Students will study there for about three years, and then they can freely choose to enter the mercenary group or apply for other fighter academies in their sixth year for further study.

The students who came out of the Barron Fighter Academy are independent, tenacious, with a strong physique and excellent fighting ability, and are the fresh blood that every academy and every mercenary group dreams of.

Therefore, donating to their academy should be a customary project of Warblade.

We have collected some marks and supplies within the mercenary group, and we have also taken the donations from the rich and noble people in the city to Barron, and plan to send them to Barron together.

After walking for about half a month, the dead grass on the ground gradually increased, and after a few days, I could see the rolling sand dunes not far away.

We stopped at the edge of the desert, intending to take a break, replenish our water and dry food, and wait until tomorrow morning before we crossed the desert.

Because there weren't many people coming, I was assigned to work with Bednar to keep watch in the middle of the night when I camped at night.

It was the deepest part of the night, the firewood was crackling, and I had just been woken up by Bernar, and my mind was still a little confused. Mu walked to the campfire and sat down in a daze, staring at the jumping flames, and was stunned by accident.

Bennar pushed me, and I looked at him stupidly, he couldn't help laughing, reached out and handed me the water bladder, and said, "If you are really sleepy, you can sleep next to me for a while, and the night duty is to prevent Warcraft or deal with sudden situations, and generally nothing will happen." ”

I yawned, then poured some water from the bladder and wiped it on my face, stimulated by the cool water, and my vague sanity barely pulled back a little.

"No need, just wake up when you speak." I replied casually.

At my words, Bednar suddenly fell silent.

I didn't care, I just reached for the burning bonfire.

After a while, Bennar suddenly sat down across from me, scratched his head, and then spat out the blade of grass that was attached to his mouth, and said, "Actually, I also learned vindictiveness at Barron. ”

I looked at his serious face, and suddenly I was a little surprised, and I was a little smiling.

He actually took my casual "talk" seriously.

Was that long silence trying to say something to me?

"I've heard that Barron is a very good vindictive academy."

Bena nodded, "Yes." ”

"Is there any difference between the courses taught at Barron and other gladiator academies?"

"Actually, most of them are the same, except that every quarter, twenty students go to the Barron-affiliated training ground for closed training."

"Sounds ...... This training ground is like a place where top fighters are trained. ”

"That's right." Bena laughed a little lightly: "Ten days, after ten days, the fighters who are trained will be reborn." ”

……

After chatting for a while, my upper and lower eyelids began to fight again, and Benett saw that I really didn't look like it, and let me lie down on the floor with a smile and make up for a little sleep.

The wind was bitterly cold in the night, and I lay down on the edge of the campfire, curled up, and soon fell asleep.

Half-asleep and half-awake, there seemed to be a heat source sticking to it, and I held him firmly in my hand, and the chill that lingered around my body slowly dissipated.

I slept like this for a while, and when I woke up in a daze, the sky was already white, and the bonfire was almost extinguished, and I heard some movement in the tent, so I moved my body, but to my surprise, I hugged Bena and snatched most of his coat.

"Awake?" Bennar smiled at me, he seemed to be in good spirits, and staying up all night didn't seem to make a difference to him.

"It's almost time to hit the road." Bednar gave me his coat and stood up to extinguish the few remaining flames. At this time, the other members of the group also came out of the tent.

Heading towards Barron College, the scorching sun overhead, the heat rising from the desert, making it difficult to breathe, and the flat sand in the distance was like a sleeping sea.

By noon, the oasis was finally in sight, and we were all relieved to untie our water bladders and drink water.

I vaguely saw a few teams patrolling in front of the oasis, and I felt that the Barron Fighter Academy was very tightly managed, so I smiled and said to Bena: "There are people patrolling even in front of the oasis, and I think it's not so much an academy for training fighters as a place for training the Royal Guard." ”

Hearing me say this, Bennar smiled a little at first, but quickly frowned again.

He looked into the distance, but after a while, he shouted for everyone to stop.

I stepped down from Tona and walked over to Bernar's side, "What's wrong?" ”

"Something isn't right." Bena muttered in reply, her eyes looking at the oasis ahead.

I followed his gaze, and now he was staring at a towering minaret in the oasis.

The sunlight refracted above the minaret, giving off a beautiful halo that made the ivory-white minaret appear delicate and holy.

"Buildings like this are generally built for the sake of the church." "But Barron is a gladiator's academy, and there is no church organization, and there should not be such a sacrificial building," said Bednar. ”

"Maybe it's just a normal building?" I said, "I mean...... It is precisely because there is no church that there is no taboo in this regard, just a simple construction of a minaret. ”

At this time, Jonas, a mercenary behind me, led a tona beast and slowly walked to our side, and said, "Barron now has a church organization. ”

Jonas is a fighter who graduated from Barron only last year, so his words are naturally credible.

Bena was stunned: "Dean Pei Ji ......"

"Yes, Dean Pei Ji agreed."

"It seems that this stubborn old man has changed a lot." Bednar shook his head and raised his hand for everyone to continue walking: "It's been a long time since I've been back to Barron, and I didn't expect there to be a church. ”

Jonas nodded: "When I first entered the school, many of the fighters of the academy were requisitioned to go to Dragon Island to slaughter dragons, and when they came back, Dean Pei Ji felt that the killing aura in the academy was too heavy, so he ......"

"I see." Bednar's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was remembering something.

"However, even if a church organization is formed, it doesn't seem to have much impact on those who can come back from Dragon Island." Jonas shrugged.

"It's also normal."

I listened to their conversation in a fog, and Bednar turned his head to look at me, and with his long arm stretched out on my shoulder, he leaned over and said, "Interested?" When I'm done dealing with Barron College, I can take you to Dragon Island to have a look. ”

"Is it dangerous? Kindness...... If it's dangerous, I might drag you down. ”

Benahaha laughed twice, then shook his head: "As long as you don't go deeper, there won't be any danger on the edge of Dragon Island." ”

listen

When he said that, I was also interested.

"Can you see the dragon?"

With an excited expression on his face, he said, "Of course, the largest black dragon, the enchanting red dragon, and the beautiful silver dragon can all be seen. ”

Seems to be interesting.

Seeing my curiosity, Bednar began to explain it to me in detail.

It turns out that Dragon Island, which is the Yarlin Island mentioned in the book, is also a place where dragons live in groups. Dragons are large and ferocious by nature. Only the ancient warriors could tame them and steer them through the air.

The sand beneath my feet was so hot that it was uncomfortable to walk on it, but I was attracted by the legends of dragons that Bednar had said, and I walked for a while without feeling tired at all.
