Chapter 700: The Legend of the Dragon Slayer (7)
"Fortunately, that guy didn't go back to Tianyan Mountain directly...... Otherwise, it's a bit of a hassle. ”
Seeing that the powerful enemy probes released by Xiwei were all pointing in the same direction, St. George couldn't help but rub the hilt of the long sword on his waist, revealing a stern expression: "I heard that it is a mountain range composed of hundreds of mountains, and even the Beamon Behemoth will get lost there, except for the Sage, it is estimated that no one can find the Ancient Dragon from that kind of place." ”
"Don't be too happy, maybe it's just a wurm or a passing abyss demon."
Sivi poured cold water on him without care.
Where they are now is a deserted city.
It can be seen that the city has only been abandoned for a short time, there are not many weeds on the roads, and the moss cover the houses on both sides is not extensive.
"Since the Abyss Demon Invasion, there have been more and more deserted cities like this."
St. George stood on the edge of a fountain that had long since dried up, looked at the fish corpses that were already boneless, and couldn't help but sigh: "The plague brought by the demons hunts humans like a game for fun, and the bait of huge monsters...... Tens of thousands of human beings have been forced to leave their homes or die. They are the most industrious people, who can build villages and towns in the middle of nowhere, and they just want to make a better life through their own labor, what is wrong with that? ”
As he spoke, he clenched his fist with iron armor and smashed it on the fountain with a fierce fist, and with his fist as the center, the entire fountain was instantly made into a spider web-shaped crack and pit by the huge force.
"So you became a knight to protect them?"
Sivi looked at St. George, who was a little unstable. Asked softly.
"I didn't think much of it at first, because I myself was one of the displaced people who had abandoned their villages and fled elsewhere." St. George smiled self-deprecatingly: "Our village was attacked by a big demon, and the militia team didn't even get to it for a few minutes, and many people died in the village at once. Fortunately, that guy didn't have any interest in chasing us personally, but just released a few black prison dogs to chase after us who had escaped. ”
He stopped, looking up at the gloomy sky, as if remembering something: "Sivi, you know what. I'm missing a piece of my right heel. It was bitten off by those big dogs wrapped in green flames. ”
"My mother and sister were knocked down by the black prison dogs, and I was trembling and trying to knock them down and save my family with the sticks I had picked up...... But it failed. ”
St. George's body trembled: "I watched my mother and sister's necks being bitten off, and there was a gurgling sound in my throat. Bright red blood flowed all over the ground. The eyes gradually lose the color of life. In the end, I watched them being torn to pieces and devoured by those hateful big dogs, and there was nothing I could do. In the end, I was the only one who was saved by a few passing knights, and I was only bitten off my heel...... My sister was only six years old at the time! ”
His voice was full of remorse and powerlessness. It was also the first time that Sivi had seen such a sad and depressed St. George.
"I began to learn from those knights, and vowed that from that time on, I would never give up on any human beings who could be saved, and I would never let my relatives and friends die so inexplicably!"
"So even if you give up your knighthood, do you want to save Vivian......
Sivi replied as he searched for something in the deserted city.
"Vivian is a knight servant who follows my teacher with the goal of becoming a knight. Unlike me, she comes from an aristocratic family, has mature combat skills, and has a very smart brain. Almost all of my arcane magic and combat magic are learned in actual combat, which is called 'memorization with the body', which is the most inferior method, unlike Vivian, who can absorb all kinds of magical knowledge like a sponge......"
St. George smiled wryly and said, "If she hadn't been helping me, maybe I, an errand student, would have been swept away by the teacher." ”
Koukotsuki! The talent to be able to learn magic in practice is obviously much stronger than the need to stay in a quiet mage tower and sink your mind to learn it, okay!
"Speaking of which, at what age did you start learning combat skills and magic with knights?" Sivi asked suddenly.
"I was four years older than my sister and was rescued by my teacher when I was ten years old. After two years of cleaning the stables and the mage's tower, he began to learn words and magic. ”
St. George seemed embarrassed and scratched his head.
"Then how old are you, are you twenty?" Sivi asked again.
"I'm eighteen." St. George looked like he was right-for-good.
“……”
In other words, this thing only began to read and learn magic at the age of twelve, and then at the age of eighteen, he became the Imperial Sword Knights who needed great military exploits to join, and their reputation among humans was second only to that of heroes?
Not only that, but he also became the chief knight of the Imperial Sword Knights.
Even if this era is relatively special and it is very easy to make military achievements, it will take at least two years to become a member of the Imperial Sword Knights, and it will take at least one year to be promoted to Knight Captain......
In other words, it only took three years to learn this thing, and it went from being an illiterate rural boy to one of the best in the human race - and it wouldn't be long before this product would become a hero with the name of a dragon slayer.
Who would be so hanging!
Are the special ones with inferior students in their names the protagonist's life?
Even if there is an academy system, Xiwei doesn't dare to say how many such perverted students he can teach in his life!
I am afraid that this is also a way for Mr. St. George to stimulate him to study hard......
In the end, Sivi can only blame this unreasonable situation on this.
"I'm sorry, it's much more pleasant to say this kind of thing than to press it in my heart......" St. George sorted out his thoughts, and turned back into the pampered knight, "I've thought too much, and now I don't even know if the dragon is here." ”
"On that note," Sylvy retracted the few mage eyes he had released, and said to him, "I saw the monster's footprints not far ahead, and compared them with the guy's footprints in the airport before, and I found that we seemed to have won the jackpot. ”
The condition of the strong enemy probe is still the same, telling them that the so-called strong enemy is hiding ahead. Sivi and St. George stared at each other wordlessly for a few seconds. St. George jerked out his sword, and then said to Sivi with a serious face.
"It's a bit cheeky to say that, but now I need your help."
"As you wish, my partner." (To be continued......)
