29.Chapter 29

"That's the cavalry of the fortress of Concedon, isn't... Didn't the orcs just attack the village of Finks?"

But looking at the direction of the other party's departure, Sodrol muttered in a low voice, "Shouldn't the defensive range of the fortress radiate to the north... How can you go southeast?"

As if suddenly thinking of something, he suddenly asked Carter, "Miss Sally said yesterday... She's going to Fort Concedon?"

Seeing Card's head, Sodrore suddenly tightened the reins in his hand - he knew very well under what circumstances the knights of the fortress would be able to receive the task of dispatching the entire brigade, and this situation only showed that Sally was probably in unimaginable trouble!

What could have happened last night? Looking at the village of Finks still burning in the distance, Sodrore barely had to think about it - it was all the orcs!

Speaking of which, Sodrore wasn't a frontier pawn who made his fortune as Roddy imagined. And in the memories of later generations, Roddy also does not know how this legion commander first made his fortune.

In fact, Sodrore was not of civilian origin.

He once had a noble surname, and although it was only a little-known baronial family, he still had a status higher than that of a commoner. However, after the family was ruined by a political frame-up, the escaped Sodlor traveled all the way to the city of Hollier according to his father's dying words, and finally obtained the humble position of "lieutenant" with the help of Duke Roussifron.

Because Sodroll's father had some friendship with Duke Roussiflon, and he himself was not bad, so after becoming a lieutenant, Sodrore has always been a "seedling" worthy of promotion in the eyes of Duke Roussiflon. But in recent years, the old duke's attention to him has suddenly cooled, and even finally turned into ignorance, and Sodrore has suffered an unjustified disaster.

Half a year ago, he "offended" the knight who guarded Concedon for several inexplicable reasons, and was demoted to the village of Finks as a second lieutenant.

The young man's ambition Sodrore was not lacking, he just didn't know what the duke was thinking, and wanted to find answers, but there was no way or opportunity. After a few years of hard work and grievances, the whole person is like a rusty blunt knife, and there is no edge at all.

However, these encounters did not affect his clear mind and judgment. Carter wouldn't know what Sodrore was worried about at the moment, because the intrigues of the aristocratic class were nothing short of fantasy to him. However, for Sodrore himself, the immediate events seemed to mean a turning point.

Originally, he had to make a choice at this time: whether to put his hope on the old duke who seemed to have forgotten him, or himself... To forge a path?

In a society where most peasants did not consider themselves to be lords, it was not surprising that Sodrore had the idea of making a difference—for he was himself a descendant of nobility, the glory of his family, and his own future.

I want revenge, I want to get ahead... Sodrore knew that the first thing he had to do in order to do all this was to make such a determination and thought.

After hesitating for less than three seconds, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I still have some things, so I won't go to Nolan Village for the time being." ”

Roddy doesn't know that the mysterious death of the Duke's daughter, a fog in history, has begun an unstoppable reversal because of his own intervention, Sally Rousifron, who was supposed to be killed by the orcs, still survives, Sodlor, who should have known nothing about this matter, has embarked on an unknown path because of the little "ambition" in his heart, and Count Francis, who should have pretended to be sad and returned to the city of Houllier, at this time angrily sent troops and tried all means to intercept his own sister.

In the midst of this chaos, the center of the entire vortex—Roddy and Sally—is now walking through the dark and dangerous silent forest, facing unknown dangers that are unimaginable to ordinary people......

In the modern human mind, "forest" often means just a lot of resources: tall trees, humming loggers, trucks, derivative products... Furniture, paper, firewood, etc. However, for the humans of the Karen Kingdom in the "Ripp", the forest usually represents the unknown and dangerous.

Most of the forests in the game are located in the human territory, and their resource utilization is basically limited to the timber development of the surrounding woodland, because when going deep into the forest, humans will be vulnerable to those "natives" due to environmental changes, except for adventurers who pin their heads to their belts, few people will go to the depths of these woodlands to face all kinds of powerful monsters and demonic plants.

When it comes to Warcraft and Demonic Plants, I have to talk about some settings of "Ripp" - to put it simply, during the period when the game was opened by Roddy, the whole world was in the "low magic" stage, magicians were rare, and there were not many even stronger Warcraft, and in general, it was not much different from a real medieval society. However, with the development of the game, the opening of several expansion packs and the progress of large-scale historical events, the magical elements of the world have gradually become stronger, and the individual power of mages, or all professions, has become more and more powerful, and the Warcraft race in the forest has become more numerous, and when there is a mage who can cast a "forbidden spell", it is already five years after the game was launched.

After all, there are not many magical beasts with magical attack ability in the Silent Whispering Forest at this time. In Roddy's judgment, it should not be much different from the forest he explored when he first opened the server.

"Click. ”

Sally's footsteps are not as silent and agile as Roddy's, and she always stumbles into branches on the ground, which also causes many fine wounds on her calves, and just now in order to catch up with Roddy's footsteps, she accidentally stepped on the dry branches, and the crunch sound was extremely harsh in the quiet forest.

Roddy's movements stopped suddenly, and Sally didn't pay attention to the front because she looked down to check the wound, and hit Roddy headbutt, and then instinctively opened her arms to hug his body.

"Ouch!"

Before Sally could cry out in pain, Roddy turned and covered her mouth, and before Sally could show a surprised expression, he picked up the girl and ran to the side without saying a word—the sight passed in front of Sally's eyes, and her stomach hurt from Roddy's shoulder, but she didn't dare to make any sound.

kept secretly scolding this guy in her heart for not knowing how to understand other people's feelings at all, but at this time, she also understood that this guy in front of her had never had any bad intentions.

After running for a distance of more than three hundred meters, Roddy finally stopped sweating and put Sally on the ground out of breath. The latter's face was flushed, and he was about to open his mouth to complain about something, but he preemptively reprimanded: "Forgot my warning?"

Sally, who originally opened her mouth to say something, was immediately speechless, she pouted, her eyes drooped, staring at her blistered feet and wounded calves with some grievances, and finally nodded stubbornly, but did not have a half rebuttal.

Luo Di is not a wood after all, he didn't want to be so strict with a little girl, but he is not a high-end professional player with a trumpet brush copy, "one wrong step and all the games will lose" is his current situation. Although Roddy was sure to walk through the forest alone and unharmed, he couldn't guarantee that the big living person in front of him wouldn't cause any irreparable trouble—Sally was smart, but if she wasn't physically fit, she couldn't do it, and this was an unavoidable problem.

Seeing that Sally was stubbornly enduring the pain and not speaking, Roddy's heart softened. If it is according to Roddy's actual age, Sally can afford to call Roddy "uncle", and being too harsh on the junior is also because of the pressure in his heart, thinking about this, Roddy sighed, looked back at the woodland he was just in, and after confirming that the shadow under the root of a certain tree gradually retracted, he finally put his mind at ease and sat on the ground. "You're lucky, you didn't get blame..."

Although Roddy complained in a low voice, he saw Sally's calves full of wounds, with no expression on her face, and she knew that she had suffered a lot, thought about it, muttered "I'll see", and reached out to hold Sally's feet in her hand.

Sally pursed her lips, but didn't seem too lazy to make any shocked expressions. She found that she had even begun to get used to the various "frivolous" behaviors of the scoundrel in front of her... The other party's movements are so natural, no temptation, no inquiry, touch and grasp if you want to, it's just...

It's so damnable, this guy is so damnable!

Sally is a lady, she has never quarreled or scolded anyone when she is so old, and at this time, in the face of such a nervous guy, she found that she really had no problem at all.

After all, Roddy's technical nerd is only strong in games, and there are really some things missing in his head - maybe he has too many "routines" in his head, and the "emotional" part is almost zero. So even if I understand that the feet are the private parts of a female nobleman, I don't think about taking care of Sally's emotions at all at this time... Instead, he pondered how to make the other party keep up with him as soon as possible.

After observing for a long time, Luo Di decided to get some herbs to stop bleeding and reduce swelling, and after a few words of hasty explanation, he ran to the grass not far away to look for it.

Woman... Woman.

Roddy rummaged through the herbs, but the scenes that lingered in his memory flashed in front of him. Didn't the girl who liked to wear red robes wait in the forest to collect herbs to heal herself? Although it turned out to be just a joke for her to test herself, the once silly Roddy was never annoyed by being teased by her.

Hey, when I think about it, I'm a little stupid.

Suddenly coming back to his senses, Roddy looked at the few common hemostatic grasses in the woodland in his hand, and realized that he had been standing there for a long time, shaking his head to get rid of those emotions, and when he turned back, he saw Sally's curious eyes staring at him.

With a dry cough, Roddy walked back to Sally, first cleaned her wound with a water bladder, threw the herbs in his mouth and chewed them, and prepared to apply them to her wounds: "The method is more earthy, but the effect should be good..."

Baba spit out the remaining medicine residue in his mouth, Luo Di felt a little numb in his mouth, and his speech became not very neat: "You... If you think... Phew... I mean, if you feel disgusted, you can just put up with it. ”
