Hank Harold

One of the only four full-fledged Rangers left in the Quelding area.

The four teams in Fort Black Rock exist in name only, and their main tasks on weekdays are to explore potential enemies in the field, hunt down possible defectors among the Night Watch, and casually escort caravans along the patrol route to increase the number of "rangers" in Fort Blackrock.

More than a month ago, during the sweep of the blood clan's lair in Horseshoe Town, six official night watchmen were unfortunately encountered by the blood beasts. Only the mighty Hank Harold escaped back to Blackrock Fort.

After nearly two months of rest and recuperation, he took with him three official night watchmen and six reservists to escort a small caravan of twenty-two wagons to Irma, the capital of the Duchy of Kasha, which is known as the light on the Atali River, in the wilderness more than two hundred kilometers south of the city of Baal.

Riding forward in front of the convoy, thinking in the back of his mind that the Black Rock Fort had been in an extremely bad situation recently.

Knowing very well that Quilding's Night's Watch troops, if they want to slow down, they are afraid that it will take several years to replenish fresh blood, and from these fresh blood, a large number of talents are selected for cultivation in the form of care, and Hank, at this time, he can't help but sigh helplessly at the terrible situation of Black Rock Fort.

"Captain Harold, look!"

With the tone of a night watchman brother who was riding a horse with him, there were three exclamations of incredulity, seven points of horror.

Under the guidance of the night watchman brother beside him, he looked up and glanced into the distance, and found a large black shadow like a mist in the distance, covering the sky and the sun, attacking himself and others.

In the middle of the sound, everyone in the caravan that was marching in the field noticed the "black fog" in the distance that occupied all the sight in front of them, and blinked during the period, and then reached out and rubbed their eyes, only to realize that they were obviously not hallucinating Hank, or the head of the horse that was sitting on the horse. shouted to the people behind him who were still stunned, "Shadow Demon! Shadow Fiend Transit!! ”

………………

As the sun slowly sets in the west on the ridge at the end of the field of vision, together with Wang Anyi and Chen Dayuan, they help the simple old man family in Qingshui Town, harvesting a crop similar to radish in the field outside the town.

Ye Qi, who stretched out his hand and pulled the last radish out of the soil with his hand and pulled the last radish out of the soil, casually threw it into the basket beside him.

Ye Qi, who stretched out his hand and pulled the towel on his shoulder, which was already full of sweat, wiped the large amount of sweat on his face because of the long time and hard work on the farm, and picked up the last basket of radishes in this acre of field on the field path in the distance, waiting for Wang Anyi and others.

After Ye Qi carried the last basket of radishes onto the carriage, the carriage that was already full of baskets of radishes, from the hands of this little Lori named Alice, who was also busy with his grandparents and had a dusty face, he took a bag of kettles, reached out and unscrewed the cork on the leather kettle, and poured several mouthfuls into the throat that was already dry and almost on fire.

In the middle of the sound, with a family of five, they were also busy in this farmland for an afternoon, obviously belonging to a family in Qingshui Town, beside Ye Qi and others, driving a fully loaded carriage slowly past.

During this period, among the five members of this family, let his wife and children sit in the seat of the coachman, but he and his eldest son walked in front of the pack horse with a little crutch on one leg of the carriage, and the middle-aged man pulling the horse rope was approaching with the distance. At a glance, he recognized Ye Qi and Chen Dayuan, who were wearing the official night watchman's emblem Black Yao Sword on their waists, even if they had removed their heavy inlaid armor at this time, they just took off their heads, and they didn't know if it was used to cover their bald little fur hats, and they bent down to salute the former.

And in the same way, during this period of time, I have come into contact with many people on this kind of road, and when I see myself, I take off my hat or bend down to salute, and I understand that these are the two Ye Qi who are fighting on the front line of the human race in every cold winter, and they nod or smile as before.

Half a sound, with the middle-aged man and his family who had greeted the old Mark and his wife who were sitting in the carriage driver's seat, gradually moved away.

When he turned around, he found Alice sitting on the back of the Cross war horse, looking at him secretly, with an inexplicable look of anticipation in those big eyes.

I can't help but think of the scene just now when the middle-aged man's family passed by himself and others, because the youngest son of the carriage kept shouting "I want to ride a horse", Ye Qi, who lifted the youngest son above his head and made him sit on his shoulders, could only shake his head helplessly, and in the laughter of the little Lori showing two little tiger teeth, he hugged her off the horse and lifted her over her head easily.

After holding Xiao Loli's thin back with one hand and letting her sit firmly on her shoulders, Ye Qi stepped home when she heard the laughter of the former behind her, and the heartfelt smiles of the old Mark couple who turned their heads.

However, this warm picture came to an abrupt end with the exclamation of Wang Anyi, who was about to enter Qingshui Town with Ye Qi and the others, who was walking with Chen Dayuan who was leading the horse.

"Damn, it's Shadow Fiend!!"

Under Wang Anyi's exclamation, he turned to look at the gradually dimming sky in the distance behind him, and the "black fog" that seemed to be overwhelming towards him.

Obviously, like Wang Anyi, Ye Qi, who realized that only those who acted in groups, a unique dark creature in Aya's world, the appearance of shadow demons, would form this scene as if he could steal the sky, so he immediately reached out and hugged Alice on his shoulders.

All around him were from the night watchmen, who had heard of this terrifying existence. At this time, their faces couldn't help but turn a little pale, but Wang Anyi and Chen Dayuan, who still forced themselves to calm down, confessed: "Anyi, Dayuan, you take them back to the stronghold first, and I'll be back immediately!" After that, he rushed towards the grove north of the town where the Order Crystal was located at full speed.

As for why Ye Qi was in such a hurry at this time, he ran to the grove where the Order Crystal was located?

That's not because in the large area of dark environment that can block the sunlight that comes with the Shadow Demons, if you don't have an extraordinary weapon with elemental strikes, in addition to attacking living beings or dragging living beings into darkness, you will only convert part of your body into a flesh and blood entity state, and other times, it is often maintained in the dark elemental form of the Shadow Demon to form an effective kill.

Then, in the coming unnatural "Polar Night", surrounded by shadow demons or shadow minions all the time.

If you don't want to be dragged into the darkness and devoured by these monsters, all you can do is make sure that you always have enough light around you to illuminate a three-meter radius around you!

Of course, this is only possible if you don't have bad luck encountering a small number of Shadow Fiends.

And Ye Qi, who obviously understood this, naturally wanted to rush to the Order Crystal to exchange for some lighting torches or alchemy props.

However, in the same way, because of the young relationship, I don't understand what the big black shadow behind me represents, which is sweeping towards Qingshui Town, and ordinary people can't avoid it. ”
