"Huh?"

Xia Di blinked, a little unable to react. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Erin?

How did she end up here?

Xia Di was puzzled, the girl in front of her had not reappeared since the village chief died, and no one had seen her, why did she appear in this wilderness at least a few kilometers away from the village?

However, the girl did not wait for him to answer, and continued.

"The King's army has just arrived in the village, you don't look at the road, it's not that far from the village. I'm here after a 20-minute walk. ”

"However, I had already prepared my luggage beforehand, and I thought it would take more time to catch up with you. Luckily, I met you here, so it was a lot easier. ”

This girl, why does she say as if she is coming to herself?

Xia Di's eyes widened,

"Could it be that you...... Looking for me? ”

"Yes, I'd like to ask you a favor." Erin nodded and said, "If Mr. Liar agrees, I want you to ......"

"Wait." Xia Di finally came back to his senses, "Mr. Liar? ”

What's the call?

I haven't done anything to this girl, how can I be called a liar?

"Because ......," Erin tilted her head in confusion, "aren't you lying when you say you're a knight in the King's Army?" ”

What the!?

Xia Di's back was cold.

When he was in the village, although he didn't take into account the situation where the lie was exposed, he thought that it was a big deal to be exposed and honestly admit that he was deceived by the rebels before joining the gang, which was not a big deal, but now he knew that he was likely to travel to another world, so the meaning was different.

What are the consequences of impersonating a regular soldier?

Xia Di couldn't help but be a little worried about whether there would be people from the King's Army hiding nearby, waiting for him to reveal his flaws and arrest him, but he understood that this was a delusion with a very low possibility, so he laughed and pretended to be calm: "What are you talking about, how can I lie to people." I'm a real knight of the King's Army, so why do you doubt me? ”

However, in the face of Xia Di's denial, Erin didn't even raise her eyebrows: "The people of the King's Army have just arrived in the village. If you really belong to the King's Army, why deceive us? ”

"Deceive, you guys?"

"You said you can't find reinforcements, and you have to rely on the strength of the villagers to drive out the enemy." Erin crossed her waist and said, "If I had known that the King's army would be here this morning, Taylorsgow and Uncle Thoma wouldn't have had to gamble their lives last night." ”

Indeed, if he knew that the people of the King's Army would come over today, Xia Di probably wouldn't have let the villagers move.

Although he thought he had a good chance of success, he was not the kind of person who was happy about his success.

"But if we don't act, something may happen to some of the villagers." Xia Di tried to argue, "Those rebels have captured a lot of young women in the village, have you seen that?" ”

Although it is not so important compared to the lives of the whole village, if Xia Di does nothing, after one night, there will be a lot of women with broken shoes in the village.

"Well, I'm very grateful for that, and Sister Tessa and Sister Remilu have said that thanks to the help of the Knight, they won't kill themselves." Erin folded her arms and nodded, "Still, this thing is this, that thing is that thing." You claim to be the King's Army, but you don't know the movements of the King's Army at all...... Something is clearly wrong. ”

"And this."

Erin put her luggage on the ground, put her right hand into her pocket, took out something and handed it to Xia Di.

Xia Di saw that there was an object broken in two in her palm.

The outer layer of the object is metal, but the inside is a mixture of earth and wood.

Those who know at a glance know that this is a magic ornament made of simple alchemy, and this is also the forged knight's coat of arms that Xia Di took to show the villagers last night and threw away afterwards.

"It's your stuff." "I saw it fall in the grass in the square, so I picked it up. ”

"This ...... Not my stuff. Xia Di was dumbfounded.

The girl in front of her actually knows what the coat of arms looks like? How?

Last night, I paid special attention to the appearance of the villagers who didn't see the coat of arms, so I dared to lose the coat of arms, but she found it back?

Xia Di was horrified.

"Please don't lie, this is exactly the same coat of arms I saw yesterday, it's the knight's coat of arms of [Blank Pattern]. Although I have always lived in the village and do not know much about the outside world, I know that the coat of arms represents family and glory, and the coat of arms of such a pattern should not exist. ”

"If you were really a member of the Knights, you wouldn't have come up with such suspicious evidence." Erin concluded, "Well, any questions? If not, can you talk about my topic? ”

This really hit the nail on the head.

Xia Di sighed, not knowing what to say.

Although he wondered how the girl could see the coat of arms clearly under that almost blind condition, and felt that he had the strength to make up reasons to refute these problems, but through the conversations just now, Xia Di could feel that the other party had no intention of investigating the responsibility of this lie, and he didn't care about his true identity.

So, he nodded.

"Well, I'm really not a knight, you're right." Xia Di sighed, "I'm just an ordinary adventurer, and the reason why I acted with the rebels was just because of a misunderstanding. Little girl, what do you want to talk about? ”

"I want you to do me a favor." Erin said without thinking about it.

"Help?"

"I want you to protect me." Erin said bluntly, "Just before I get to the nearest city [Bedford]." ”

"What? You're leaving the village? Xia Di asked in surprise, "Do you want to go to the city?" ”

"Hmm...... My father's younger brother, my uncle's family, lived in that city, and I felt I should go to him. After all, my grandfather is my only relative, and when he dies, I can't cause trouble to anyone else. ”

Erin frowned slightly and said with a sigh.

When a loved one dies and there is no source of income, can you only go to distant relatives? It's a very common plot.

But...... Is it really that simple?

Xia Di thought silently.

"I'd love to help you, but I don't know the way."

"I have a map." Erin pulled out a drawing from her bosom, "I also have the things I need for the journey, although I don't have much to prepare." But enough. ”

Not much?

Xia Di frowned, and looked at the luggage that the girl placed on the ground, it was at least twenty kilograms.

How far is this journey?

"The nearest city, how far is it from here?" Xia Di thought for a moment and asked.

"If you walk...... A week or so. If you can ride in a carriage, it will take about three and a half days. ”

"This thing...... Have you consulted with the people in the village? ”

Erin shook her head like a rattle, "I can't say, if I discuss, it will definitely worry them." After all, you may encounter a lot of magical beasts on the journey, plus ......"

Erin paused, staring at Xia Di with clear eyes.

"I don't know if you'll agree to take me there."

Xia Di fell into a short silence, not to mention that he was not familiar with this world, and his strength was not as good as before, even in the original world, protecting a little girl for a week was by no means an easy errand, not to mention that if it was the real world here, after the mission failed, the worst result could lead to the loss of life, if he accepted the commission so easily, it would be irresponsible for the lives of others.

But Xia Di was a little hesitant, because he felt very uneasy after learning that he had crossed

Although this world may have similarities with the game world, he recalled the experience of the past few days several times and found that there were still some things that he could not understand.

As a result, he felt he needed a source of intelligence to plan for the future.

The girl in front of her is such a source of information at her fingertips, not only can she get information and lead herself to the city, but she also seems to be able to do magic, probably ...... Can you think about it?

Thinking of this, Xia Di took a breath.

"Ask you something." Xia Di looked at Erin, "In battle, how much long-range support can you guarantee to provide me?" ”

"Huh?" Erin was stunned.

"If you're not good at attacking, you can have more than three healing spells, at least when I attack, you can ensure the safety of your allies."

Erin stared at Xia Di silently for a while, shook her head, and said, "I don't know what you misunderstood, but I don't know how to magic." ”

What the?

What did you see last night? Hallucination?

"That ...... yesterday"

"That's what you mean." Erin reached into her cloak and pulled out a ring with a rope tied to it, "That's what my magic does. ”

Xia Di squinted his eyes and looked at it, and suddenly understood.

A ring is an ornament made of magical metal.

The surface of the metal is engraved with intricate, incomprehensible characters.

The different shapes merge together to weave a special magical formula.

This technique is called Fixed, and can be used to store magic until the mana inside the metal is depleted, and the weak mana can be used to trigger various levels of magic an infinite number of times. Therefore, this kind of jewelry is also called a magic ring on the market.

"Grading A......"

The quality is quite top-tier, and the market price is at least 2 gold.

"This thing...... Is it yours? Xia Di asked suspiciously.

“…… Not mine. Erin's face was expressionless, but her voice had a hint of sadness, "This is a gift from Sister Kayilu to me a few days ago, and it is also her relic. ”

"Relic?" Xia Di asked, "Hmm, what are you talking about ...... Kayilu?" ”

"Sister Kayiru is an adventurer passing through the village. She was tall and had emerald green hair. ”
