Chapter 283: Funeral (II)
The next day, early in the morning.
With an unusually majestic sound of eagle crying, it swept from the high altitude in the distance.
Immediately after, a silver-white giant griffin that swooped down from a high altitude slowed down its flight speed over Black Rock Fort and slowly circled.
The night watchmen who lived in the mountains behind Black Rock Fort did not understand the purpose of the giant griffin.
But he also knew very well that this kind of fierce beast with destructive power was even better than the combat power of the Yaoyin class, and the night watchmen who were not easy to mess with, and in the command of Chen Dayuan and the man with facial paralysis, he raised the longbow that was suddenly pulled into a full string even though it was lowered by some height, but at this time, it still did not enter the range of the strong bow in his hand!
Mitsubishi's heavy arrows, which are sharp and have a cold light that makes ordinary people's scalps tingle, also constantly change direction as the giant griffin circles.
Until, in Chen Dayuan's mind, a voice suddenly came from him that made him feel familiar;
"It's me, Dayuan."
In this regard, Chen Dayuan immediately raised his hand to "build a shed" in front of his forehead, squinted at the giant griffin above his head and the others, and took a closer look.
"It's okay, it's Ye Qi!"
Along with this, whether it is among the aborigines or the descendants, it seems to have a magical name, which was shouted out of Chen Dayuan's mouth. The night watchmen present lowered their bows and arrows.
While waiting for Ye Qi to ride a batch of spare war horses in the Black Rock Fort, and half of the rangers who arrived here last night, they slowly rode into the gate of the city that connected to the cemetery of the nobles of Baal City.
is still on the same cliff, and it is still the two girls who have not seen Ye Qi for a long time.
Until Ye Qi's back, he disappeared from Amore's field of vision.
The girl couldn't help but raise her fingertips at this time, even though she had practiced various weapons since she was a child, but still slender like white jade, and stroked the tips of her hair that were blown by the oncoming cold wind: "Tina, I heard that you agreed to Aaron Pittman's pursuit?" ”
"So what can you do, Amore, you don't see it, that guy is getting better and better. It seems that even if we chase after him no matter what, we can still only look at his back from a distance. ”
Tina Grace, who replied like this, kicked a stone at her feet and continued to speak angrily: "Besides, he never looked at me in the eye anyway. I might as well find someone who likes me, otherwise, do you want me to have unrequited love for the rest of my life? ”
"At least, now you are facing up to your feelings for him. It's not like I ......."
Before Amore could finish the above words, a sudden cold wind drowned out the second half of the girl's words.
"What?"
In this regard, Amore, who obviously didn't dwell on this issue, just shook her head: "It's nothing." ”
After a long silence between them, the half-elf girl, as if she had something on her mind, finally said to her best friend from childhood to adulthood beside her: "Tina, in a while, I may have to leave, and I will go to Karuran with my grandmother. ”
Under Amore's words, Tina couldn't help but realize something: "You're not going to be ready to join the Iron Guard of Thorns, are you?" ”
"Aren't you ready to give up?"
Without waiting for Amore to answer, she felt an inexplicable sense of bitterness in her heart at this time, and Tina, who was also a little unwilling in her colleague's heart, slowly became a little excited: "Amore, are you sober?!" ”
"It's not that you don't know that you just want to be selected for that team, and you have a full 80% lethality rate in the knockout event. Next, not to mention mentioning ......"
"I know, but that's the only way I can think of to improve my strength quickly."
………………
"Ye Qi, I said this Thunder Griffin, where did you get it?"
Huang Leisen, who was riding a horse and walking beside Ye Qi, was reminded by Billy University yesterday that today, like the surrounding rangers, he specially wore specially polished ranger armor and a brand-new black cloak with an extraordinary shiny surface, and he leaned up like this: "With this kind of aerial flying unit, it will be really convenient to travel in the future." Well, we're not greedy, and you see if you have time to get us a griffin. ”
"It's not greedy...... Brother?, do you really not know, or do you not know? ”
"There are only about five hundred adult griffins like this in the entire Kaluran Empire, which is known as the country of griffins. Do you really regard this kind of destructive power as a cabbage even compared to a rare beast of the Yaoyin class? ”
Without waiting for Ye Qi, who was crying and laughing at this time, to answer, Zeng Yonglu on the side was the first to speak and mock him.
"Hey, hey, I'm not doing it for everyone's benefit, okay?"
Regarding such a refutation from the dead party, Zeng Yonglu pursed his lips disdainfully: "Then you should also seek some practical points, for example, get a few more Chiyan long swords, or lion shields, and sell them to us." ”
As soon as Ye Qi heard the sworn friend beside him, he turned the topic to this aspect again, and he immediately stopped the topic: "These two extraordinary pieces of equipment, I think it's better to forget it during this time." I also want to take a few more days off while nothing has happened recently. ”
"No, didn't you say that after a few more days of rest, you can go to the ancient royal ruins in the Kapushi Mountains?"
"And the ancient royal relics, didn't you kid say that in three days, he will have a wedding with Emma?"
……
Ye Qi and his party, who walked through this aristocratic cemetery, led the rangers all the way to the square in front of the gate of the Dawn Temple.
At the funeral, under the infection of the solemn and heavy atmosphere, Ye Qi and his party also lost the interest in continuing to chat.
Silently turned over and dismounted, and joined the crowd of send-offs, preparing to send the clergy who were about to be cremated on the spot for the hundreds of people who returned to the kingdom of God in the Purgatory incident.
Benjamin Connor, the administrative bishop of the Quellding district, who was dressed as solemnly and formally today, and with a delicately patterned ribbon draped over his shoulders, stepped up to the podium to deliver a speech.
A battle priest of the Dawn Temple, who was familiar with him, also walked in front of Ye Qi through the crowd.
The person who came was one of Ye Qi's little acquaintances in the Dawn Temple;
The Battle Priest who had traveled to Byron Territory with several Templars and Ye Qi during the Shadow Fiend's transit: Ed Ryan.
It's just that for more than a year, it has been a human thing.
Ed Ryan is still a respected battle priest in the city of Baal.
But Ye Qi has grown from an obscure night watchman to an existence that can compete head-on with the Abyss Flame Demon!
Although, Ye Qi has never admitted that he has reached a legend. Moreover, in his evaluation of the system's combat power rank, it is true that there is only a high-level flash gold.
However, it is also the natural worship of the aborigines living in this troubled world for the strong.
"Your Excellency."
Under Ed Ryan's slight bending, because as a clergyman, he could not kneel down except to the main god he believed in, showing the greatest respect.
Ye Qi, who took a step forward, gave the other party a very unexpected hug: "Edgar sacrifice, is there an order?" ”
"Don't dare, the High Priest just asked me to come and inform you that the journey to escort the remains of the Templars back to the Holy Capital will take a lot of time before departure. You can go into the waiting room inside the temple and wait. ”
Under Ed Ryan's invitation, Huang Leisen, who didn't stay aside, just wanted to open his mouth and agree.
Ye Qi naturally knew that the waiting room in the Dawn Temple in the mouth of the combat priest in front of him was actually not very big, and it would definitely not be able to let all the rangers present enter. And he didn't want to do any special treatment in this kind of thing, so he replied first;
"Not necessarily. Besides, it was chilling to see off these warriors on their last journey, sitting in a warm room, drinking tea and eating pastries. ”
"Uh~"
Naturally, Huang Leisen, who understood Ye Qi's above words, and in some respects, it was not unreasonable, so he immediately closed his mouth.
And Ed Ryan, who was in front of Ye Qi, also stopped persuading and responded: "That...... All right. ”
Then, with the passage of time, the rising sun above everyone's heads reached the middle of the sky.
The procession escorting the remains of the female Templars to the holy capital of Galleon also began from the square of the Temple of Dawn towards the east gate of Baal City.
With the team of rangers led by Ye Qi, the "funeral procession" and this "funeral procession" traveled more than ten kilometers in the direction of due east, and came to the ordinary town where the population was not large and the geographical location was not important.
Most of the clergy, led by the Edgar Priest, also slowly stopped their march amid the shouts of several knights of glittering glory who came with the team.
Obviously, due to the situation on Quelding's side, it was not possible to send the body of the female Templar to the Holy Capital for Edgar's sacrifice, so it could only be sent here for her.
At the same time, Ye Qi was also invited by Huang Leisen and a group of die-hard friends.
Instead of choosing to ride the Thunder Griffin that stayed in Black Rock Fort overnight, he hurried back to his territory.
Instead, they called a group of acquaintances and went to a bar they frequented in the city of Baal, ready to drink until dawn.
