Volume 1 Border City Chapter 60 Small Town

After several checks, the convoy successfully passed through the Acropolis defense ring on the border of Ole, and further south from here, it was the normal city of Ole.

After a busy day, it was getting late, and when they arrived at the town ahead, the caravan found an inn to rest.

The name of the town is Gesang, and it is an ancient town with a long history, but most of these ancient towns have formed a considerable scale by now, but this seems to be an exception.

Judging from the size of the cemetery in the town, there have been at least dozens of generations here, but even at nightfall, the streets of a small town should not be so sparsely populated, especially young people, a real town seems to be a dying old man, not far from the northern border of Ole.

After the convoy settled the personnel, Zhang Zhong and Han Xiao did not go to rest, but coincidentally came to the square in the center of the town.

"Do you feel strange too?" Zhang Zhong saw that Han Xiao also appeared here.

"Yes, there's something wrong here, but I've walked around a few times, and apart from the fact that the cemetery is a little outrageous, it seems that the house is too old, and nothing else is special. Han Xiao replied.

"Cemetery?"

"Yes, the cemetery, and the strange thing is that there don't seem to be any new graves in the cemetery. ”

Han Xiao and Zhang Zhong both realized that this matter was unusual, judging from the proportion of old people in the town, as long as people died and were buried in the cemetery, then there would inevitably be new graves, and there should be no minority, so the current situation is difficult to explain.

"Forget it, we shouldn't make any extraneous things on this trip, let's go back first, and leave early tomorrow morning. Zhang thought about it and said to Han Xiao.

"Good. Han Xiao responded, and then said, "By the way, something seems to be wrong during the day today." ”

"Well, if nothing else, we have been targeted by the Ole border army, but we really don't have any violations and illegal behaviors, so they can keep an eye on them. ”

Han Xiao was not as optimistic as Zhang Chong, and said with some concern: "I'm not worried about now, what I'm worried about is that if we use unconventional means to get something, it may not be so simple to pass through here." ”

"I said Han Xiao, are you worried a little too early, there are 100,000 gold coins, you shouldn't need to use extraordinary means, you put your heart in your stomach now. ”

"Well, I'm too careful. Anyway, something happened, and I walked away. Han Xiao said indifferently, and then the two of them disappeared into the mossy streets of the town in Zhang Chong's disdainful curses.

When Zhang Zhong and Han Xiao returned to the inn, Guo Yifei waited inside early, although he didn't go out to investigate, but he also felt that something was wrong here.

"Did you find anything?" Guo Yifei asked out loud when he saw the two of them walking in.

Han Xiao and Zhang Zhong both shook their heads, and at this time, the owner of the inn, a man in his fifties, also walked over.

Although the boss is in his fifties, he has a tiger's back and short silver hair, and he doesn't know how much of it is carved by the years.

The general physique of the Ole people is relatively tall, which is incomparable to other countries in the Eastern Continent, and the barbarians who originally suppressed them have long since disappeared, as for the Western Continent, there seem to be many races that are more majestic than the Ole people, but they rarely appear on the side of the Eastern Continent.

"A few guests should rest early, there is not much to visit in the town at night, and it is relatively remote and not so safe. The boss kindly reminded him.

"Okay, thank you boss. Zhang Zhong responded politely.

The boss's words, the three of them don't think it's just a kind of care for customers, from the current indications, this place is indeed abnormal, it looks like the boss should know some insiders, but they just spend the night for a night, or it's better not to cause trouble.

The three of them walked to the guest room area on the second floor, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

The others seemed to be tired and fell asleep early.

In the jungle outside Gesang Town, in the quiet night at this moment, there are more than a dozen figures quietly hidden inside.

"Miss, I think it's better to forget it. This matter is likely to be related to the military's secret department, so I think it's better to go back and discuss it with the master. A middle-aged butler in a tuxedo said to a young woman.

This woman's upper body is simple silver lady armor, cuirass, wrist guards, elbow pads, shoulder armor, but there is no helmet, long blonde hair naturally hangs down to the waist, facial features have the typical characteristics of the Ole people, the three-dimensional sense is very strong, and a touch of red lips adds a touch of coquettishness to the original fair and lovely face.

Unlike the unbridled female knight of Ole, this woman's upper body armor is a kind of black underwear, which outlines her figure, but covers a large area of her skin.

She has the typical characteristics of an Ole woman, tall, fair-skinned, with a somewhat abnormal curve, a pair of long legs tightly pressed together at the moment, with silver long leather boots and women's skirt armor, even in this dark night, it still makes the mouth dry of the dozen or so knights in full armor standing behind her.

"Uncle Simon, if you can't even handle this situation, then my Blood Cross can be dissolved. ”

"Erecia, it's not a trivial matter, it's always the stuff that the secret organization has made. It's very perverted, we are a knight squad, and there is still a lot of risk. The housekeeper still looked very uneasy.

"Simon, so be it, I'm the Knight Master. Miviel, Gock, you two come with me to go in and see what is going on, while the others stand by. ”

"Yes. Two figures immediately stepped out from behind Erecia.

"Miss, you have a noble status, or I will go with them to have a look, and you will stay here. Simon looked very anxious, although this young lady of her own family has shown excellent talent in all aspects since she was a child, but after all, she is very young, and she may not be able to deal with many unexpected situations.

"No need, I'll go, you stay here, and once you see a signal coming out, you rush in with the other knights. ”

"Miss!"

"Enough, here I am not the second daughter of the prince who needs to be taken care of, but the chief officer of the Blood Cross. ”

Simon wanted to say something, but suddenly felt a hand behind him pull him, and then silently lowered his head.

In the darkness, three figures cautiously entered the town, followed by a deeper hidden figure.

Looking at the darkening night, Simon's face was full of worry at the moment, but thinking of the shadow following behind, he still felt some comfort in his heart.

When the three of them entered the town, they found that the night in the town seemed to be not sleeping, but dying.

It had only been long into the night, and the whole town was barely lit, and it seemed that you could not even hear the sound of breathing when you passed by the many houses, as if there was really no one.

The only movement in the town is the bell tower in the central square, which is topped by a large bronze bell that rings at nightfall, at midnight and at dawn, to record the progress of the night in the sleepy town.

"Commander, it seems that there are no suspicious traces, but the whole town doesn't seem to be normal. "Mivel has always been a member of the guards who follow Erecia, after all, the head of the regiment is a woman, and the proportion of women in the guards is relatively high, but if someone underestimates her because she is a woman, she will definitely suffer a big loss.

Mivel's whole person is hidden in a suit of armor, the slender lady's full body armor is special, and the weight is much lighter than the normal standard female armor, unlike the other entourages who are all standard cavalry, Miviel studied at the Higher Kingdom College of the Northern Realm of Ole, and is an exchange student of the Wind and Snow Sacred Academy of the Frost Empire, and her scout skills and assassin skills make her very prominent in the knight-crisscrossed Ole, so she was chosen by Freeman Hall, one of the three princes of the North, as her daughter's personal attendant.

The Heavenly Frost's Wind and Snow Sacred Academy and the Merchant Alliance's Golden Gate Academy are tied for the first place among the various colleges in the Eastern Continent, and it can be said that this girl from a noble family with three patterns in the north is an absolute top student.

Of course, as Erecia's close attendant, if nothing else, Mivel's future noble title should be much higher than her father's, at least reaching the five-pattern noble, which is not far from Eresia's hereditary seven-pattern.

The whole Ole, from one to seven, and then to the prince and the royal family of Ole Although there are many noble levels, only the four lines and after the four lines can be regarded as the nobles who really have the right to speak, from this point of view, Mivel's original family is actually not a real noble, but relatively wealthy, which also gave her the opportunity to study in the capital of the mainland, of course, she did not disappoint her parents.

"Wait, it may be a matter of time, it's very uncomfortable here, there must be something wrong. Erecia looked at Miviel's visor hidden in the dark, relatively speaking, she didn't have a sense of superiority or superiority for this girl about her age, more like a sister, and even Lord Hall once wanted to take Miviel as her adopted daughter.

"Commander, why don't you go back first, you can have subordinates here. Gok's voice was low, judging by his voice alone, he should have been a man close to thirty years old.

"No, Gock, you and I are waiting in the central square, this is the center of the whole town, if anything changes, there are probably some signs here. Erecia thought for a moment, then said to Mivel, "You go around and see what's so special, be careful." ”

Miviel didn't answer, just slowly retreated to the back, and then disappeared little by little in front of the two of them.

"Really, really, breathtaking. "Gock is obviously seeing Mivel's abilities for the first time.

"Yes, when she returned to China, even the Fengxue Holy Academy, which was full of talents, hoped that she could stay, and even offered conditions for apprenticeship and teaching. ”

Goke was stunned, and frankly said that if it was him, he might stay in the Heavenly Frost Empire, because the apprentice teacher who was only in his early twenties was actually a closed disciple of a certain dean in the Wind and Snow Holy Academy.

While Erecia and the others were sighing, Miviel did not go far, but came to a well behind the hiding place of the three.

Mivel slowly approached the well, a black dagger that had no reflection at all in the night, like a fangs hidden in the night.

"You're looking for the wrong thing. A deep voice suddenly came from behind Miviel, and just as Miviel backhanded the dagger, a hand wearing hand choked Miviel's neck, and the other hand held Miviel's right hand of the dagger.

Mivel's pupils shrank, but without the slightest hesitation, her left hand went directly to her waist, this person is not something she can deal with, all she has to do is send a signal to let Erecia know that there is danger around her.

Just as Miviel was about to grasp the lead of the canister, the opponent hit the canister on Miviel's waist with precision.

Mivel had never felt so powerless, and the opponent seemed to be eating herself to death in every way, and it was a doomed encounter for her.

Miviel suddenly felt the other party's hand hold her and let go, and then a badge appeared in the other party's hand and put it in front of Miviel.

"Go ahead, I'm here. With that, the man turned and walked into a darker place.

Miviel stood there silently for a moment, then picked up the flare and swooped off for the only lighted spot in town, without even turning around to look at it as if nothing had happened.

Behind where Mivel had been standing, there was a dark shadow, all hidden in the armor, but not the armor of the heavy knight, and if Erecia had been careful enough tonight, she would have discovered that there was such a special person in her team.

The entire Knights, except for the heavy cavalry, which is fully covered with heavy armor, only special people will have some unique full-body armor, and it is obviously impossible to bring slow heavy armored cavalry in this operation.

The man had only joined the group from the jungle behind him after nightfall, and he had followed the group from a distance until he sensed the strange situation in the town.
