Of course, after getting along for so long, she naturally understood that it was unrealistic to persuade Dalena to change her ways, so she didn't propose the idea of taking Rita away, but ......

Glancing at the boy standing beside her, she could clearly feel his trembling through the little hand.

"Don't be afraid. A word of comfort was soft, and then Angel looked at Dalena again, "Captain, I won't object to what you do, but can you grant me a request?" ＂

"Tell me first, it's not impossible if it's easy. ＂

"Take this little guy out of here. Angel took a deep breath and quickly pulled the man in front of her, "Although the road will be a little troublesome, this kid is very smart, just send him to a nearby town." ”

"Well, it's just a matter of handiness anyway."

Dalena agreed without much thought, after all, as Angel said, it was just a little more trouble on the way, but so what?

"I, I don't want to go with you."

The sudden refusal made the three of them a little dazed, and the next second Dalena and Angel's voices sounded at the same time: "What did you say?" ”

"Repeat what you just said, little one!"

crossed her waist and glared at Angel, who wanted to open her mouth to persuade her, and then looked at the boy with a fierce look: "The old lady is kind enough to take you away, but you dare to refuse!" ”

"I ......"

"What are you, what can you do if you stay here? Believe it or not, as long as we leave the front foot, the stuff outside the back foot can eat you. ”

"I believe it." The boy surprisingly did not cry, although he still looked very frightened, but his voice was more determined than before, "That sister saved me, if I leave with you, then she will have no one to take care of her, my sister is sick now, and she will probably die because of this." ”

“……”

The boy's words were very straightforward, so straightforward that Dalena especially wanted to hammer people: "Okay, boy, you are very kind, since you want to stay like this, it's okay to stay, Sister Ye and Angel go and call the other two, let's go." ”

With that, Dalena walked towards the stairs without looking back.

"Let's go."

"Eh, this ...... Is this gone? ”

Looking at the two people who disappeared at the top of the stairs, Angel struggled in her heart for a moment and followed, but when she passed around the corner, she couldn't help but glance back, and finally didn't say a word......

"Before you go, let's clean up the mutant beasts around here."

As soon as she stepped down the stairs, Angel's ears heard such a sentence, and the original loss was immediately replaced by a full heart: "Captain......"

"Okay, how old you are and crying, don't forget that you are my man. ＂

Dalena's voice had a hint of playfulness, especially the cute appearance of the blinking eyes, which made Angel instantly burst into tears and laughed: "I see, Captain." ”

Yes, no matter what, Dalena's choice is for everyone's good, after all, taking one more person on the road is more dangerous, the former mountain bandits and robbers, but now they are mutant beasts.

"Okay, since everyone is here, let's start acting, solve it all within an hour, and I'll wait for you at the entrance of the village."

"Yes!" *4

After that, the four of them slaughtered the mutant beasts in the village one by one, but Dalena went to the entrance of the village alone to wait. It's just that without the knowledge of a few people, a white figure is floating in mid-air watching all this.

"It doesn't seem like I need to show up." The man chuckled twice, then looked at the boy through the window, and finally landed on Rita, "I hope you don't disappoint me, after all, you are an important part of my plan." ”

The figures in the air faded away with laughter, replaced by the constant roars of beasts throughout the village.

……

At the same time, to the east, the Imperial Line

On the plain as far as the eye can see, after a night of fierce fighting, there are already mountain-like beast corpses everywhere, and the dark red of the ground under the corpses makes people feel oppressive just by looking at it.

"I don't know when this kind of day will end."

On the city wall not far away, several soldiers were standing or sitting, their faces full of exhaustion.

"Who knows, if I could, I really hope it would be over now."

Since the Mutant Beast attacked the city, the soldiers here had not had a normal rest for a long time, the initial panic, the fear, then the anger after the death of their companion, and now the numbness. Although it was only two months, it felt like decades had passed. Even the city wall, which had only been repaired for a long time, looked very dilapidated at this time.

"Wait, let's hold on here for a while longer, and the royal city will have a little more time to prepare."

"General!" *n

The voice behind him made several soldiers stand up straight in an instant, looking at the man with admiration and anticipation in their eyes.

Isaiah Humer, one of the Imperial Generals, has a high reputation in the army because of his strength and seniority, but he does not have much desire for power, and he hates the atmosphere between princes and nobles, so he will take the initiative to apply to be stationed on the border.

"In addition, I heard that the Second Highness is recruiting new soldiers, and I believe it won't be long before someone will be sent."

Perhaps sensing the emotions in everyone's hearts, Isaiah directly stated the information he had received recently, but it didn't make much difference.

"But general, it will take two or three months to wait until the recruit training is completed, and in our current situation, if there is no support, I am afraid that it will not be able to support even half a month."

"You don't have to worry about this problem, it's only three months, and we can afford to wait."

The lightness on Isaiah's face suddenly lifted the spirits of several people, and although they didn't know exactly how to do it, at least they weren't as depressed as before. But a few people didn't know that although Isaiah said it easily, his chest was as if he had been pressed against a boulder. He is the general of this army, and his words and deeds will affect the morale of the soldiers, so he cannot give up, and it is impossible for him to give up, even if there is only one soldier here, he cannot show a desperate expression.

"Okay, now take the time to rest after eating, physical strength is the most important thing on the battlefield."

"Yes!" *n

The crowd dispersed, but Isaiah stood on the wall and looked out at the forest in the distance. It was the place where mutant beasts continued to spawn, and although he had sent people to investigate it at the beginning, no one had ever been able to come back alive.
