"How late are we?"

Marlon clenched his fists tightly to force himself to calm down, and then asked. [Ran^Text^Library] []ШШШ

"About two days ago, maybe three days, they should have died at that time."

Robin gave his own judgment.

"Put them first...... Bury it. ”

Marlon waved his hand, and several militiamen from Night Town dropped their weapons one after another, walked over and carried the two corpses out.

A militiaman went to the corner and picked up the man's severed arm - the mangled body smelled so foul that if he had been a week ago, the militiaman might have vomited, or he would have wept over the tragic death of his two compatriots.

But now, he didn't—because he had just used his dagger to bleed the blood of an orc to pay for his sins when he left Nighttown, and he would make that green-skinned bastard even more expensive in the future.

Humans, never forget.

……

The militiamen left the house, and Marlon began to think about the next course of action—apparently they were late, and the orc captive had said that the orc force that had come to sweep the western wilderness had arrived two days before them.

Having failed in their plan to find the survivors of the Wild West before the orcs do, Marlon and his soldiers are faced with a choice - continue their search in the land or return to Nightshade.

If the former is chosen, then Marlon and the others are likely to find only corpses all over the mountains; But that's it......

Marlon did not hesitate to reject the second option - he feared that if he did, he would never be able to get rid of the nightmare of the two corpses.

"Let's go, go to Sentinel Ridge, I hope it's still too late."

Malone walked up to Robin, patted him on the shoulder, and left the farmer's cottage, which had no owner.

Outside the house, several militiamen were digging graves with tools they had found from the farms, and Paul and two groups of militiamen rushed back from a distance in the direction of the granary.

"There's nothing over there, there's still food and everything...... What's going on? ”

Paul reported his findings, but stopped when he noticed the two bodies.

"The orc was right, their army hasn't had time to visit here. But now they're here, these two men are farmers here, and they were attacked by orcs three days ago. ”

Malone explained simply.

"This bunch of greenskinned crumbs...... So, where do we go next? ”

Paul spat on the ground and scolded the orcs indignantly, then calmed down before asking Marlon.

"Bury them...... Then we go to Sentinel Ridge. ”

Malone sighed and said--I hope that the people there are still safe......

……

Sentinel Ridge was still some distance from where Malone and the others had landed, and when the sun was gradually setting below horizon1, they had to stop and rest.

In the past, because of the water, Malone and these soldiers have not been able to sleep well; Now on land, even though there is solid dirt underneath them, they are already satisfied.

Malone still chose to keep vigil - as a commander, he can't do much now, but try to let these militiamen who have not yet been on the battlefield sleep as much as possible.

"Chief Lothar."

Paul came to Marlon at the edge of the camp and sat down.

"Where's Robin?"

Malone glanced at Paul and asked softly.

"He's over there...... It doesn't seem to be very happy. ”

Paul shook his head and said - this is almost nonsense, no one is happy to see his fellow citizens being slaughtered by orcs.

"After a while, he should be able to see a little better."

Malone shook his head and said—no doubt Robin was an excellent soldier, and he even had the talent to be a commander.

This soldier of the Xiquan garrison was calm and brave, but ...... When he found his compatriots who had been tortured and killed by orcs in his hometown, his feelings were extremely low, and it was understandable.

"The green-skinned crumbs...... Don't let us find them. ”

Paul said viciously, one of his hands behind him, and his fingers digging deep into the dirt of the western wilderness.

……

Robin sat quietly on the land of the Western Wilderness, looking at the bright twin moons overhead, a little distracted.

It had been two years since he had left the place called his hometown—two years earlier he had left the neighbor's house where he had been lodging and had gone to the West Spring Fortress to become a garrison; It wasn't until shortly after the arrival of the Governor of Lothar that the orcs invaded, and he followed his commander and his comrades to begin a "journey" to protect the refugees from the orcs.

Robin's parents came to this land twenty years ago, and they eloped from their home just to hide from elders who didn't understand the free love of young people.

Even though the western wilderness has vast land, the suitable land for cultivation has long been allocated to the farmers, and Robin's father came from a small merchant family in Stormwind City, and he doesn't know how to reclaim the wasteland.

When the young couple was in a dilemma, a farmer named Morson took them in; The Morsons, who had their own farm further west in the Wild West, generously provided the young couple with a place to live and a job — not much but enough to make ends meet.

Soon, Robin was born, and the Morsons almost treated him as their own; Even when his parents died of illness, he continued to care for him until he became an adult and served in Stormwind's regular army.

For Robin, the Morsons are also his relatives, and ......

Robin remembers the youngest daughter of the Morson family, Tess Morson.

Tess and Robin grew up together, and the young Robin used to be confused about his relationship and feelings with Tess, but when he spent some time in the Westspring garrison, he gradually matured and realized that he loved Tess.

Thinking of Tess's red eyes and reluctant gaze as he held his palm, before leaving Morson's farm and reporting to the garrison of Westspring Fortress (Marlon's predecessor) at the recommendation of Tess's father, Robin thought that the girl with the faint freckles on her face loved her too.

Robin had planned to save a sum of money from his military pay, and then return to the Wild West to marry Tess; However, the war shattered a young man's dreams for the future.

Robin obeyed Captain Lothar's orders and followed him to Stormwind, wanting to contribute to the garrison there; However, things changed, and Stormwind didn't last long, so Robin followed Chief Lothar to protect the refugees and went to Nightlight.
