Chapter 123: The Future (I)

The fire continued until the High Clergy passed through the Luminous Gate to the Cathedral of Tiamagos, and a force of the Mithril Knights was transported from St. Anthony's Cathedral to the city, and the religious soldiers quickly appeared in all corners of the city streets, and the situation in the city began to stabilize from this point on.

In any case, this night is destined to go down in history.

Tonight's calamity will inevitably arouse the attention of the Templar Church, and the nobles in Violet's country were naturally in an uproar when they received the notification of the incident afterwards, after all, the Dark Alliance, the country of the undead, borders the border defense line in the north of the kingdom, although they know that the bones in the north are not very peaceful, but no one expected that the Holy City of the Church would break out in this kind of disaster overnight.

The violet nobles were scattered in their fiefdoms and looked out at the distant fires on the coastline, and some of the visionaries felt like they smelled the haze of war.

The army of priests from afar roamed around the burning city, and the undead creatures in the city were not very strong, but their mission was not only to destroy the skeletons scattered throughout the city, but also to find the citizens who were still alive while dealing with the undead creatures, and then organize manpower to extinguish the fires, treat the wounded, and clean up the rubble...... These things are like a mess with no end in front of them, and this mess alone is enough for them to clean up for a night.

The shore of the lake outside Hurengel was a little cold, the autumn night breeze was gradually blowing from the direction of the coastline, Arya loosened the blond hair of the ponytail scarf was wet and pressed against her neck, and the elf girl who was not yet dry stood on the shore of the lake and shivered and inhaled a breath of cold air, and then raised a hand to pull the hair stuck to her skin back uncomfortably.

In the far south, the climate in the Far South Forest is not as cool as on the coast of the St. Furen Sea.

"Arya, your clothes." Finn walked over to the elven girl from a campfire with a stack of clothes in his hand, reaching out and handing the clothes in his hand to the latter, "Maybe a little wet." If it's cold, go and grill it, it's warm over there. ”

"Thank you." The elven girl turned, her emerald green eyes blinking in her sockets, then took her clothes from the paladin youth's hand and trotted into a small tent that the young men had improvised out of twigs and coarse cloth.

Finn turned his head sideways to see the elven girl who seemed to be a little afraid of the cold, wearing a robe and holding the clothes in her arms, running into the tent, and then with the thoughts in her mind, she looked back at the fire in the red half of the night sky.

About twenty minutes ago, the dark elf girl Camusha, who had met him outside the underground auction hall, brought them out of the castle hall of Count Drew, and they jumped from the second floor of the castle into the moat outside the castle, and swam in the direction of the source of the river to the shore of the lake on the outskirts of the city.

The young paladin looked at the fire that reflected half of the sky in the red, and although he didn't know what happened to the Marshallese priest and the nun named Suya, he could somewhat estimate that the Mithril Knights at the church headquarters should have arrived there, after all, he had used the Radiance Gate many times in his previous life, and he had a rough idea of how long it would take for the portal to be fully opened.

Facing the cool breeze blowing from the coast, Finn looked at the burning city at the end of his vision for a moment, then put his hands to his mouth and exhaled a breath of heat, then turned back and walked back in the direction of the small campfire by the tent.

A dark elf girl named Camussa was sitting on a stone pier and wiping a dagger. Finn looked at her sideways, walked past her and walked around a small bend to come to her half-crouched down, looked into her buried eyes, thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Thank you for your help, friend." ”

The movement in the hands of the dark elves stopped.

"You're welcome." She looked up and looked at Finn from the bottom up, "I don't like that old priest, so I came to save you." ”

With that, she smiled calmly, then put away the dagger she had just wiped from the rag in her hand, and stood up to look in the other direction by the campfire.

Finn followed her gaze and looked over there, where the future Juggernaut was crouching not far away, wiping the half-elf girl's wet bright silver hair with a towel clumsily. The expression on the half-elf girl's face was finally not as sluggish as when she was in the city, and when Raymond's fingers accidentally poked her immature face, she subconsciously closed her eyes, as if to indicate that the hallucinogens used on her by the slave traders should have been ineffective.

"Hey, sir, are you back?" Arroyo stood beside Raymond and the half-elf girl baking clothes over the campfire, and suddenly noticed the gaze of Finn and Camussa and raised her head, "Ah, yes - the effect of the medicine in this child's body seems to have passed, and she seems to want to talk to you." ”

As he spoke, he put aside a half-dried linen shirt in his hand, turned around and whispered a few words to Raymond, and then carefully took the bruised hand of the half-fairy little girl, as if he was afraid that he would wring off the slender little hand with a little force.

The young thief brings the half-elf girl from Raymond to Finn. The young paladin lowered his head to look at the poor child, squatted down and stretched out his hand to gently stroke her fair side face, remembering that everyone should not know her name yet, so he asked softly in a gentle voice, "What's your name?" ”

“…… Tina. The little girl looked up at him a little nervously for a few seconds, then replied with a bit of shyness.

"You want to say something to me, don't you?" Seeing that the little girl named Tina did not resist herself, the young paladin asked again.

"Well......" the little girl nodded, as if after thinking about it for a long time, she said, "Master......"

"Stop."

"Huh?"

"What do you call me?" Finn's eyes froze, and he looked the little girl in the eye.

"Master, master......" Tina's voice lowered, and she shrunk her neck in fear, but she still mustered up the courage to speak, "Master, you bought Tina with money, and Tina will be your slave from now on, may I ask... Is there anything Tina can serve you? ”

As the words fell, she looked at Finn timidly and expectantly with the two beautiful eyes of snow gems in her eyes, and half a second later, as if afraid that Finn would dislike the blood and bruises all over her body, she tugged at a sack-like cloth robe that was draped over her in an attempt to cover a dye-like bruise on her leg.

The young paladin looked at the look on her face, the two eyebrows under her forehead furrowed unconsciously, and then shook her head helplessly, probably guessing what kind of mess those black-hearted slave traders had instilled in this poor child in the abuse of the past.

He didn't have any quirks, and he didn't want Tina to provide him with any hellish service, so he didn't think twice about it and said to the little girl with confused eyes: "I don't need you to serve me, you are free." ”

As soon as his words fell, Camusha, who was standing beside him with his hands in his hands, raised his hand to cover his mouth as if he had heard a joke, and Arroyo, who watched him talking to the little girl, was stunned for a moment, and then showed a worried face, as if he wanted to remind Fein of something, but he couldn't bear to say it.

Arroyo was a thief after all, and had been exposed to more shady things than most of his age, and when he heard Fein's answer to Tina, he immediately read the transient changes in the little girl's inner mind from Tina's face.

In the next second, the half-fairy girl who was ransomed from the auction hall by the young people was indeed as expected by the thief youth, and suddenly showed a look of fear in her eyes, and she was so anxious that she was about to cry and begged the young paladin in front of her: "Master, don't you want Tina?" ”
