93 returned
It's back...... They're coming back.
O man with filthy blood in his body, I will take everything you haveβthis is the fate of the nobility.
......
"It's back......"
Weken looked at the familiar town at the end of the road, and his heart was full of emotion.
The picture of the first expedition is vivid, but the person who returned at this time was the only one.
"Weken. Xue Xue shouted softly to Wei Ken beside her, and asked with concern, "Is it uncomfortable?"
"I'm sorry, reminiscing about some of the past......" Wei Ken looked at the concerned face and shook his head, "Let's find a hotel to stay in first, it's not convenient for me to show my face, after all, there are many people here who know me." β
Now both of them put their hoods on, like two travelers who have been displaced from another place.
Weken had already changed the red soldier's winter coat, which symbolized the kingdom of Riardo, and put on a spare set of gray robes with a hood. Although it is not the same as the robe of the snow shirt, it looks very similar. The equipment on his body has been updated by Wind and Rain West Village, and it is also slightly different from the equipment in the past.
Generally speaking, as long as you don't show your face, you will basically not be recognized.
"Driving ββ!"
Behind him, the rough roars of the men and the sound of horses' hooves on the ground could be heard in the distance, like the sound of an approaching earthquake.
The scattered travelers hurried and retreated from the main road, and pushed them down the path with a curse.
"Get out of here, get out of here!" the riders roared roughly, causing a frown to furrow.
Xue Xue frowned.
Wei Ken hurriedly took her hand, shook his head, and quietly pushed away: "You are not allowed to use magic, making trouble is not conducive to action." β
"Yes. Xue Xue nodded and sighed with some regret, "It seems that you can't take rough measures like before...... It seems that the method of directly entering the mayor's mansion, arresting the mayor, and forcing the handover can no longer be used. β
"How the hell did you behave before......" Wei Ken felt his face twitch.
But if you think about it, the previous frost marks might actually behave like this. After all, they are not people who are interested in aristocrats, and it is normal to be a little "rough". Not to mention, they also have that kind of strength. If a whole team of frost marks cooperates with the snow to kill, the defense of this forest town may not be able to stop it.
"But now, don't forget that your body is so badly damaged that you are not allowed to use magic. I think you know how to do swordsmanship, right? Weken tossed the other longsword he was wearing, snow-shirted.
Xue Xue nodded silently.
At this time, the riders' rough driving caused the horses' hooves to trample on the ground mixed with snow and mud. The splash of mud directly turned pedestrians into mud figures.
The muddy men on their trousers, shoes, clothes, and salutes were about to curse something, but they were frightened away by a carriage following behind them.
"This is ......" Weken frowned slightly as he looked at the flag fluttering in the wind on the roof of the carriage.
Where do you seem to have seen this flag?
Forget it, I can't remember, I don't care about it.
The riders escorted the carriage and rushed straight into the town without slowing down. It seems that there is a lot of chickens flying and dogs jumping on the road.
"Those people are so hateful!" scolded a passerby, "aren't they nobles, it's amazing!
He seems to be a herb picker.
Beside him, a pedestrian hurriedly shouted, "You fool, you don't want to die! That's the chariot of the nobleman of Forest Town, Gulf's eldest son, Sovas!"
The herb picker was stunned, and his head shrank: "When I didn't say anything......
"Did you hear that, something big happened in the town some time ago!" said another pedestrian, leaning in to speak.
"What's the matter?" the herb picker wondered.
"I've heard that the mayor of the town has been seriously injured in an assassination!"
"Really?"
"Although that happened, didn't Mayor Mare come back?"
Pedestrians were talking.
"Wei Ken?" looked at Wei Ken.
Wei Ken thought for a while: "Let's go, first go to the east side of the town to find a hotel, and inquire about the news there." β
"Good. β
Is this news true or false? In addition, Sovas has also returned from the front, is it ......
Forget it, this kind of aristocratic thing has nothing to do with me, my goal is to rescue Lizlit's mother and daughter, and then get out of here. As for the tricks of the nobles, I will be as much as I love, and I will not mix it.
Enter the Forest Town area. The barracks in the West Sector are still there, but the patrols look very weak. I thought that this barracks would be canceled directly, but I didn't expect to be able to see it again now.
From a distance, the four soldiers on duty sat lazily in the sentry booth, chatting listlessly.
There are no familiar faces, and they look like temporary recruits in the last few months of preparation. The veterans who followed Floyd had all died, and most of the soldiers who had followed him from the crusade against the bandits had also died on the stormy battlefield. Those who stayed in the barracks, although they also had some acquaintances, did not see them at this time.
Although he wanted to step forward to say hello, Wei Ken just glanced at him from afar, and then left with Shirt Xue.
The current self is not suitable. Let's not talk about whether he will be jointly and severally liable as a subordinate because the general has been wronged and slandered as treason. Even if you don't hold yourself accountable, you have privately retired from the battlefield, and it is difficult to clarify your identity. The best outcome will be to be arrested for desertion and sent to some strange place again.
And now, there is obviously no time to straighten things out, let alone prove their innocence.
Walking towards the eastern part of the city, Wei Ken had a low face.
The streets were once again in the same disorder as before. A fresh horse trampling caused a peddler on the avenue to die on the road. On the way, the small carts and goods that were lifted off were scattered all over the ground. All sorts of children's gadgets fell to the ground, and many of them were stained with blood.
On the side, two soldiers with disgusted looks of trouble were talking to a woman who appeared to be the wife of the deceased. But there is no perpetrator in sight, and it seems that it should have been caused by the rider in the convoy just now.
"Noble ......" Xue Xue paused slightly, and there was some resentment in her words.
"Don't talk so much, find a place to ......"
Before Wei Ken's words fell, a voice made Wei Ken startle for a moment.
"Mr. Wei! It's you!"
The woman's slightly surprised voice raised the vigilance in Wei Ken's heart to the highest level.
The hand has been touched on the hilt of the sword, as long as things are not right, then it will be a bloody storm.
"Don't you recognize me?"
In front of her, there was a woman with a pretty good face and a little light. He has a very elegant posture and looks like an educated person.
"You're ......," Weken recalled, trying to find a face in his mind that matched the woman.
"I'm Dali, thank you for what you've done for us as a couple!"
The woman named Dai Li had a look of reverence on her face, which made Wei Ken a little confused.
"Ah, that's it...... you"
So who the hell are you? I don't remember I knew you?
"Wei Ken, who is she?"
"Well, Mr. Wei, don't you remember me?" Dai Li smiled awkwardly.
"How, of course I ......"
After a long silence, Weken nodded.
"Yes, I don't remember. β
It must be because of Reaya that I have this dead duck's hard mouth.
"Ahh
Somewhere, rubbing her nose, the girl who was tired from the journey looked sad and angry. Beside her, a young man who had been assigned to her was weeping, as if complaining that he had taken on a rough job.
"That's really ......," Dai Li smiled bitterly and sighed, "It should be that you are too generous to account for such gains and losses......
"No, I really don't have an impression of you. Wei Ken said with a blank face.
"This ......," Dai Li said helplessly, "then, you must have an influence on my husband." β
