It was late afternoon when we returned from the gnolls' camp, and the setting sun was still giving off its last rays of light and heat on the horizon. It was getting dark, and a bonfire was already burning in the camp.

Even if the trouble of crossing the river on a raft was avoided, the entire exile party of tens of thousands of people wanted to cross the Sadol River in one or two days, and the wooden bridge built by only two large trees could not be completed in a day or two. In order to ensure the safety of the river crossing, Sir Lothar had patrols formed to guard against possible dangers.

Whether these patrols can guard against the real danger in the swamp of the wetlands is not clear, he knows that the other party is a good hand at finding fault.

"You two stop."

As soon as Ainan and Sloan approached the camp, a squad leader named Haken stopped them with two guards. The latter held his head high, his hands in front of his chest, and was blocking in front of Ainan, and there was a posture that I didn't want to live from here.

Seeing Haken blocking the way, a look of disgust appeared on Sloanan's face: "Haken, you'd better not cause trouble. ”

"I'm in trouble?" As if hearing some funny joke, Haakon's nostrils widened and he snorted heavily, "When did it become a trouble to do your duty?" ”

The other party pointed his nostrils at him, and he also breathed, and the long nose hair that grew into his nostrils flew under the drive of the air current, and Ainan was so disgusted that he hurriedly took two steps back to keep himself out of Haken's 'fire range'.

His retreat was taken for granted by the other party in Haken's eyes, and he was very proud to see that Ainan was so cowardly.

"Yo, isn't this our powerful magic apprentice Ainan, what's the matter, you're going to play the gnolls again? Hahaha......"

As for the newly circulated rumor that Ainan used a spell to solve a dozen or so gnolls, Haken Zhen took it as a rumor.

A magic apprentice who is not a real mage, dealing with a dozen or so gnolls?

Don't be funny.

Haken would not believe such outrageous words, in his opinion, it was just a trick of some people to boast about themselves, and they could deceive those hillbillies who didn't know anything, and meet real discerning people, such as Haken himself, who would be exposed.

Wait for me to debunk you and see how you make a fool of yourself.

Haken thought maliciously in his heart.

Ainan was just a magic apprentice, but he made a comeback and became a celebrity in the eyes of Sir Lothar and many nobles, and Haken was jealous of this.

Why are you Ainan valued and not me?

Can a magic apprentice be compared to Uncle Haken, a low-level warrior, I am higher than him in terms of rank, why is there no noble lord who appreciates me?

Anger makes people impulsive, and jealousy makes people lose their minds. Ainan has won the favor of many nobles, which is something that Haken has been working hard to obtain, and Ainan is lower than Haken in terms of strength, which makes Haken psychologically unbalanced.

Your strength is weaker than mine, and I can't even be looked down upon by the noble lord, how can you be like this, how dare you do this?

As for the resentful nobles and lords who looked away, Haken didn't dare to think so, his only choice was to spill his anger on Ainan. Luckily – at least that's what Haken thinks – he quickly jumped at the chance.

Ainan frowned, Haken's appearance was almost written on his face, if he couldn't even see this, it would be in vain.

Isn't it just to solve some gnolls, and even this can become the root cause of some people's faults, which is too weird.

Anyway, Ainan didn't understand what was going on in Haken's head, but it didn't matter, what mattered was how to deal with the situation.

Sloanan was worried that Haken would come to the door without a chance to perform, how could he let it go?

"Watch your words, Captain Haken. His Excellency Ainan has been recognized by Lord Lothar, do you have any objection to Lord Lothar's decision? ”

Haken thought that the two steps back from Ainan were his own fear, but Sloanan didn't think so, and as far as Haken spoke, he spat and let everyone keep his distance from him.

Stopped by Sloane's words, Haken was angry but didn't dare to refute. What he said before was inappropriate, and if he made trouble in front of Sir Lothar, it would be difficult to ensure that he would not leave a bad impression on the other party, and for Haken, who was bent on climbing the thigh of a nobleman and had a reverence for the noble lord carved into his bones, such a scene made him break out in a cold sweat.

I didn't expect Sloanan to openly oppose him, it was too miscalculated.

Haken, who was unwilling, quickly thought of a way that he thought was clever, since it was not possible to take the initiative to provoke Ainan, he might as well change the way to provoke Ainan to jump out by himself.

Young people can't be provoked, they just need to tease him.

Haken thought about stepping aside, gave Ainan a defiant look, unbuttoned his trouser belt, and let go of the water with a bang, and made a crotch lifting motion from time to time.

What do you mean, could it be that this product turned out to be a base.

Ainan is so tired that he can't do it.

"The wetland swamp is full of dangers, and I advise you not to do it."

"What are you talking about, be louder, I can't hear clearly, uncle, junior apprentice."

Pulling Sloane, who wanted to rush up and beat Haken, Ainan sighed: "I persuaded you, but you didn't listen." ”

Haken Dale: Yes, young people are really young people, they don't have any brains, they can be provoked casually. If you dare to accept the beckon, Uncle Haken can pinch you to death with one hand, and wait until you are trampled under my feet to see if the noble lords will be interested in you again.

At the thought that he could be in the limelight, maybe he would be favored by a certain aristocratic lord, Haken was overjoyed and immersed in the illusion of a beautiful future.

Your Excellency Ainan is also something you can mess with?

Sloanan's eyes were full of pity when he looked at Haken, Ainan was so powerful that Sloanan, as a witness to the incident, knew better than anyone else, what kind of calculation Haken played Sloanan saw through at a glance, and it was precisely because of this that Sloanan felt that Haken was pitiful.

Even I don't dare to provoke His Excellency Ainan, and you want to step on people to get on the throne with your Harken scrap, and you don't know how to die.

Haken didn't stop him if he wanted to find Sloane, and things had developed to this point Sloanan simply looked lively, and he had long decided that Haken had no chance of winning.

The urine-soaked earth moved, and a large hand of rotting rhizomes and mud broke through the surface, and rushed up against the drenched urine, grabbing its source and pulling it violently.

"Ah......h

A miserable cry came from Hakon's mouth.

Everyone who saw this scene, including the guards led by Sloanan and Haken, all felt that their bodies were cold, and the thing was torn off by force, and even a man couldn't stand it.

Ainan sighed, "I persuaded you. ”
