After seeing this scene, the swordsman immediately looked at Gao Duos vigilantly, and his expression became even more solemn. Although Gaudus came to their rescue, the situation in Savoy was so chaotic that if they did not take a stand, who would know if the other side was friend or foe?

As he looked at the other man, he ordered Spider to devour the flesh and bones of the forest unicorn and ordered the skeletons to move away, then walked alone towards the swordsman and the little girl.

"Do you know this ring?"

When he saw the ring on Gauldos's hand, the swordsman's expression tightened, and he immediately asked, "Where did you find it?" ”

"At the goblin camp, a young man captured by the goblins gave it to me and asked me to find the owner of the ring."

When he heard the news, the swordsman was relieved, and his tense muscles immediately relaxed. Those horrific wounds expanded abruptly with the relaxation of the body, and the blood flow increased more than twice? It turns out that the swordsman has been compressing his muscles to stop the bleeding from the wound!

The swordsman fell to the ground with a bang, and the clothes lining the chain mail were quickly soaked with blood. When a dying person loses the responsibility and mission to live for, then the only thing that awaits him is death. Now that Gaudus is here, then his mission should also be over.

"You—" Gao Duos hurriedly helped him, and immediately pressed the wound for him, trying to stop the bleeding for him, but the man shook his head.

With great difficulty, he handed the sword in his hand into the hands of Gadoth, and exhorted with all his might: "The wind and rain... Street... Number 23... Miss's... Family... Take her... Get back! ”

Gao Duos took the sword, nodded vigorously, and said, "I will." ”

The swordsman smiled with satisfaction, then closed his eyes.

[Mission accomplished.] 】

[You have triggered a new mission: Miss Lori.] 】

[Mission description: Escort little Lori home, the address is No. 23 Fengyu Street.] 】

You accepted the task. 】

Gao Duosi looked at this swordsman with a peaceful expression, and in addition to sighing, he also felt that the responsibility he had taken over had become heavier.

I won't let you die in vain, I swear.

Gaudus said silently in his heart.

At this moment, the little girl hiding in the hollow of the tree slowly walked out, she lay on the corpse of the swordsman, sobbing silently, tears gradually wetting the chain mail on the swordsman's body, and her long golden hair flew in the wind.

Gao Duosi looked at the sad little girl, and couldn't bear it, so he patted her shoulder and said softly: "The ring, give it back to you." ”

The little girl raised her head, wiped away her tears, and looked at Gao Duos calmly, she took the ring, and asked in an unusually calm but trembling tone, "Can you... Helped me bury Cohen? I mean, this person. ”

Looking at the little girl's red eyes, Gao Duos knew that she was not as calm as she seemed, and her heart was actually sad.

He nodded, and Spider crawled over, stretched out two arthropods, and began digging through the ground.

And the little girl was not idle, and dug up with her immature hands and Spider Ji.

Gao Duosi looked at the little girl's hand, a little unbearable, and said, "It will do everything well, you don't need to do this." ”

The girl still stubbornly dug into the soil and said calmly: "I know, but there are some things that I have to do. ”

She pointed to the swordsman's corpse, swallowed her grief, and said, "He died for me." ”

Gaudus sighed softly, and did not try to persuade her again.

Soon, a grave was dug up, and the little girl's hands became much rougher, with many small wounds on them, and her nails were cruined. But the girl didn't care, she dragged the swordsman's body, placed him in the burial pit, and began to bury him.

With the help of Gaudus, the swordsman was finally buried. The little girl looked at the grave quietly, then knelt down on one knee, folded her hands, and began to mourn and pray.

"Cohen, Red, Cussen... I'm sorry, I hurt you... Also, don't worry about me, I'll live well... Finally, may you enjoy peace and tranquility in heaven... Happy. ”

At the end of the prayer the little girl stood up, picked up two stout branches and a rattan, tied them into a cross-shaped tombstone, and planted them in front of the grave, and then she pulled off a few hairs, tied them into a rope, threaded them through the ring, and tied them to the cross.

The wind blew the hair tie on the cross, and the beautiful ring swayed in the wind. The little girl walked up to the cross and gently touched the top of the cross. A kiss.

After doing all this, she turned her head, looked at Gadoth, and saluted, "Thank you for saving me." ”

Looking at this beautiful, strong, and precocious aristocratic lady Lori, Gao Duosi also had some admiration, and couldn't help asking, "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Belea."

"Belea? You're Belea. Titus? ”

"Why, do you know me?"

"Yes... No. 23 Wind and Rain Street, is it... Earl's Court? ”

"Hmm."

Gaudus's heart couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

Belea. Titus, this beautiful little Lori is the only daughter of Count Titus, and according to the official character set given by the game, she died in the Turin Forest one night when she was 7 years old.

But the specific cause of death was not officially given.

And players are not interested in such an NPC character who has no impact on the main story and cannot get any income from it.

Therefore, the cause of her death has become an unsolvable mystery.

In the game, she seems to be insignificant and insignificant, but when Gaudus is involved in all of this, he only thinks that Belia's death seems to involve a lot of things.

But now, Belea, who was supposed to die, was rescued by herself, and the next historical trend is bound to deviate from the normal trajectory and go in a different direction.

Where will it go? Is it chaos or more confusion? Is the advantage of knowing history known to you gone?

There is no way to know.

"Can I know your name?" Looking at Gauldos, who was frowning, Belia couldn't help but interrupt his thoughts and asked in a low voice.

It dawned on him that this was not the time to think about this. He replied, "You can call me Gauldos." ”

"Gaudos? What a strange name, but inexplicable... Very nice to hear. ”

"Really? Let's not talk about that yet. Tell me something, why are you here? What about your family? ”

Belia was stunned, biting her lip stubbornly, and finally, she told what had happened.

To put it simply, a noble lady stayed in the mansion of the high-walled compound for too long and wanted to spend a day in the Turin Forest, but the guide who was familiar with the terrain of the Turin Forest disappeared, and the noble lady and her guards and servants got lost, were attacked by goblins and monsters many times, and finally landed in this field.

After hearing this, it dawned on him.

He finally understood the cause of Belea's death.

"What's your guide's name?"

"His name is Matthew..."

Matthew...

Gaudus buried the name deep in his heart.

After Belya finished explaining, she scratched her hair and said remorsefully, "You're going to take me home, right?" ”

Gao Duos shook his head decisively and said, "Yes, but not now. ”

"Not now? Why? ”

Belia was very puzzled, she already had a deep understanding of the danger of the Turin Forest, and the top priority should be to get out of here as soon as possible, but why would this big brother who looked good say to himself that it wasn't now?

It was also difficult for Gaudus to explain the reason to her, but he knew that there was a man behind the scenes, who wanted to take Belia's life.

That's right, someone is going to hurt her, this is not just a speculation, but there are deep-seated reasons.

Belia spends most of her life in the Earl's Court, facing the guards with straight faces, the walls of the mansion, and the cookie-cutter scenes, and no amount of strict parenting can curb the child's nature.

What is a child's nature?

That is: a desire to play, a desire to be happy, a desire to be free.

Belia didn't do anything wrong, every child does. However, the continent of Acacia is not a place of peace, such as the Forest of Turin, a dangerous forest inhabited by goblins and monsters. The pursuit of freedom is never the same as risking one's life, and how could Belia's parents and servants allow her to do so, the only daughter of an earl, and a daughter?

There is only one explanation for all this: someone wants to kill her.

And the means are very clever, not through low-level means such as assassination, poisoning, etc., but... A little bootstrapping.

Maybe it's a sketch of the beautiful scenery of the Turin Forest, maybe it's a fairy tale about the Turin Forest, or maybe it's a cuckoo caught from the Turin Forest... Just putting such a display of good things in front of her will surely arouse her natural desire for freedom as a child.

She may have understood that it was wrong to leave Turin without her parents' permission. But she would comfort herself like this: one day.

Just play for a day.

It's like a bird in a cage that wants to fly in the sky, even if it's just for a day.

Think about it, even if we have entered or have entered adolescence, the self-control that has begun to take shape cannot stop us from sneaking over the wall into an Internet café, let alone a 7-year-old child?

She and a few of her closest servants left the city of Turin and arrived in the Forest of Turin, where what was supposed to be a day of indulgence in play, but in the middle of the tour, the situation took a turn for the worse due to the disappearance of the guide.

In the end, all but Belia were killed.

Yes, the problem lies with the guide [Matthew].

If he knew the terrain of the Turin Forest well, why did he disappear for no reason? Was this accidental, or was it deliberate?

That's right, this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy that leaves no traces and is invulnerable, everything is so natural, if it weren't for his sudden appearance and sideways, then this conspiracy would really succeed.

On the other hand, if they knew that the operation had failed, then the next operation against Belia would inevitably begin to brew.

For Belia, if they know that they are not dead, then Turin City is the tiger's den of Longtan.

Luckily, they didn't know that Belia wasn't dead.

The best way to protect Belia now is to keep her by her side and hide her identity.

Seeing that Gaudus didn't speak, Belia couldn't help but grab his hand and begged, "Please, take me home, my mother... I don't want her to worry! ”

Gao Duos squatted down, gently held Belea's hand, and said firmly: "You can't go back yet, as for the reason, it's hard for me to explain to you, but please trust me, I will protect you." ”

"Okay..."Belia lowered her head, a little dejected, looked back at the Cross Tombstone, and secretly swore in her heart: Brother Cohen, don't worry, I won't let you down, I will definitely listen to the big brother.
