"So, how long can it last?"

In the face of Ye Qi's somewhat anxious inquiry at this time, Edgar Sacrifice did not choose to deliberately sell anything, but said directly: "Three natural months." ”

And Ye Qi, who never felt that there was anything pie in the sky in this kind of power exchange, also continued to ask: "So, what price do I or the Principality of Kasha need to pay for this?" ”

"There is no cost, just a strategic alliance between you and the Temple."

Under Edgar's answer, Ye Qi frowned: "That, hasn't the Night's Watch Legion always been in a strategic alliance with the Dawn Temple?" ”

To this, the priest of Edgar shook his head again and replied, "The Legion of the Night's Watch has fallen, and you are a shining new star that is gradually rising. ”

"This ......"

At the same time, Ye Qi, who obviously heard this analogy, only said after a slight pause: "It's okay, but there needs to be a premise here, that is, it is limited to dealing with the invasion of chaos and dark creatures." ”

"Limited to dealing with the infestation of chaos and dark creatures."

After repeating Ye Qi's above premise in a very clear tone, Edgar Sacrifice stretched out his right hand to the young man in front of him according to the custom of a stranger.

………………

"Click~Click......"

In the blizzard where the cold wind is constantly howling, the sound of frozen soil breaking is mixed in.

As the dark blue crack continued to expand, pieces of dark corpse spots, arms whose flesh and blood had been completely corrupted by the will of winter, broke out of the hard frozen soil.

Immediately after, there was only a terrifying blue head left in the eye sockets, and the body that seemed to be blown away by the howling cold wind in the next moment, also with a hideous face that was severely corrupted by the will of the cold winter, and a few strips of rags hanging under the clothes before death.

Finally, under the erosion of time, half of the spear has been corrupted, and only a small section of spear blade and dead wood remains.

The newborn ghoul was pulled out of the crack under his feet.

"Roar!!"

The ghoul who opened his mouth and roared to the sky seemed to be the joy of rebirth, and it also seemed to be venting the unwillingness of the last trace of his mind that had been corrupted by the will of the cold winter in his heart.

Half-ringing, it should have felt something, and with the movement of the ghoul turning around, the dark blue eyes in its eye sockets crossed two dark blue arcs in mid-air.

The other two newborn ghouls who had also broken out of the frozen ground around them took a slightly stiff step in the direction they were guided by a breath of darkness......

At the same time, the town of Wagner had replaced its outer wooden fence with a simple stone fence and, weather permitting, was housed by a towering watchtower on either side of the eastern gate, which was heavily staffed.

Rich Kitt, who was leading the team, was wearing armor that was a little heavy for him, and he was wearing a warm animal skin cloak outside, standing in front of the observation window of the cold wind with a spear in his hand, quietly watching the distance because of the blizzard, which fell into a dim world at this time.

In the sound of snorting, Rich Kitt, who turned his head helplessly, looked at Cole Vincent, who was also wearing a fur cloak, soft armor, and a short sword at his waist, in front of another observation window, his face was red from the cold, and he was constantly inhaling snot.

Richie immediately persuaded him: "Cole, if you feel cold, you better go back first." Otherwise, in this kind of weather, Aunt Mel will definitely come out to look for you later. ”

"I don't want it."

Cole, who responded like this, then said in a serious manner: "Moreover, the lord said that if you want to become a knight, you not only need extraordinary combat skills and extraordinary courage, but also noble character and strong willpower, which are also indispensable! ”

Well, if Sir Leonard had been there, he would have laughed out loud about it.

After all, Ye Qi had never said such words, it was just an old knight who looked at the pink knight squire and felt a little frustrated because of something, a kind of borrowing from Ye Qi's name and encouraging him.

And for this, Rich, who is working along this goal, obviously agrees with it at this time. However, he still had other puzzles about this, so he continued to ask, "That's true, but Lord Lord, when did you say such a thing to you?" ”

"Did I say that the lord told me, but Sir Leonard told me."

Although Cole's mouth retorted like this, the little boy's little face at this time was also flushed with a blush as if the lie had been dismantled.

"Huh...... Richie, look! ”

Half-loud, with Cole's exclamation, which looked like a fart next to Richie.

During this period of time, like the seventy-five reserve officers, Richie's three meals a day have always had the relationship between the ferocious beast meat increasing his physique, and at this time, he was about to advance to the middle level of black iron, and under the view of his eyes, he immediately found the figure in the distance that was gradually clear in the blizzard!

"One...... Two...... Three...... It's these ghouls again! ”

With the figures of these three humanoid forms, they approached the distance of thirty or forty meters from the east gate where the two of them were. Richie, who finally saw the general appearance of the three figures, immediately put down the spear in his hand and leaned over to pick up the horn bow on the side.

However, when Richie reached for the arrows hanging in the quiver hanging on the edge of the window behind him, he was pulled by Cole on the side.

Turning to look at the other party suspiciously, Richie got an answer that made him laugh and cry;

"Richie, you promised me yesterday!"

Under Cole's expression of three points of seriousness and seven points of pleading.

Knowing in his heart that this kind of individual ordinary wandering ghouls who appeared in the range of the flame of order could not stir up any storms, Richie could only hand the horn bow in his hand to Cole on the side.

Then, Rich took out a Mitsubishi heavy arrow from the quiver for Cole, and handed it over, and at the same time, he did not forget to remind him: "Cole, according to the agreement we agreed yesterday, you only have one chance to shoot." ”

"I know."

Cole, who responded in this way, immediately pulled over a bench about a foot high (Note 1) that he had moved out of his home to prepare for this situation, and stepped on it with a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other.

Admittedly, Cole Vincent, who was less than four feet tall, could not have taken a bow and aimed at a target below him in such a watchtower designed for adults with an observation window nearly four feet high.

However, when Cole was waiting to catch the Mitsubishi heavy arrow and pull the 60-pound horn bow in his hand half-stringed, Richie on the side heard something from a distance that was not very good: "Wait, Cole. ”

Richie, who was beside him, reached out and pressed the bow and arrow that the former was aiming at in his hand.

No, Cole, who was puzzled by this, asked aloud.

The head of one of the three ghouls in the distance was directly pierced by a fatal feather arrow shot from the wind and snow in the next instant!

Before the ghoul whose head was badly injured completely fell, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves becoming clearer and clearer, a knight in black robe rushed out of the wind and snow in the next moment.

The long sword that flashed with cold light flashed twice in succession as the war horse passed through the gap between the other two ghouls under its crotch, at a speed that Richie could not see.

Because this knight did not choose to chop the neck which is relatively easy. The skulls and brains of the two ghouls, which had been directly split by the blade from the middle of their faces at forty-five angles, were splashed seven or eight meters away under this equally terrifying force.

It's as if it was swept away by a super-heavy tomahawk.

Its ferocity can be seen!

At the same time, Cole, who was obviously taken aback by the strength of this black-robed knight, also raised the only weapon in his hand against the former under the instinctive trend.

It's just that the Mitsubishi heavy arrow, which was pulled away again and was on the side of the bull's horn bow, failed to shoot out in the end.

In the next moment, the black-robed knight who felt something in his heart threw a sharp look directly at Cole that he would never forget.

Frightened, the little Zhengtai in the watchtower directly threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, and sat on the hard back plank of the base of the watchtower.

Well, the identity of the person who came, naturally, is Chen Rui, who returned with Ye Qi and others and explored the way for the large army in front.

At the same time, there is no need to wonder that Chen Rui's eyes can actually scare Cole, who is already more determined than ordinary people, to sit on the ground.

After all, even Huang Leisen and the others have been fighting non-stop for nearly a year, every time their swords reach their flesh, their limbs fly sideways, and their blood splatters, they are more cruel than hot weapons, and they have fought again and again through cold weapons. It was also unconsciously, he developed a vicious aura that ordinary beasts did not dare to approach.

What's more, before he came to the Aya World, he had been engaged in foreign special operations work, and Chen Rui must have crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood......

And it was only at this time that Chen Rui, who found out that he had arrived in Varna Town, couldn't help but be stunned by this. Soon, he also understood that he might be scared of someone, so he could only reach out and touch his nose in extreme embarrassment.

After a while, Ye Qi and the others who followed the return trip arrived in front of the east gate of Varna Town.

Ye Qi first made a night watch salute to the old wizard of the White Tower who was supposed to return to Baal City with most of the night watchmen and the others, with his right fist in the heart position. Then, as the rangers such as Huang Leisen watched them slowly disappear into the blizzard, they immediately noticed a different color on the face of Chen Rui, who was the first to arrive on the side. and the garrison troops on the wall of the east gate behind him, after he and others appeared, they slowly lowered their vigilance.

"What's wrong?"

In the face of Ye Qi's inquiry, Chen Rui, who had already turned over and dismounted, made a gesture of spreading his hands on him: "It's okay, but I didn't pay attention to it just now, I should be scared of someone." ”

"Huh?"
