Volume 1 The Noble Viscount Chapter 54 Like a man like Roque
Sizzle.
Chirp.
On the high slopes, two horses become tense over a tuft of low grass, and they both look at each other, eager to drive each other away for their own use.
Vincent was still carrying a heavy sword, and he was guarding by the side, while Lan Ya and Hei Ya looked at them with great interest, their eyes full of curiosity.
"Giggles. ”
A silver bell-like laugh broke the deadlock on the horse, and Lan Ya pulled some grass and held it high towards a horse with a smile.
Sizzle.
Seeing that the horse was eating the grass in Lan Ya's hand, Hei Ya also learned to feed the other horse.
The confrontation between the two horses was thus resolved, and they were flicking their tails leisurely, eating the feed of the two little ones very leisurely.
Not far away, Roque was sitting on a rock, he was calm, listening to Gerald Togar next to him.
"Baron Gough in the small town of Stella already knows about the sub-elves, and I think Turton must have reached some kind of agreement with him, and the merchants in the town are also ready to move, which is not the worst. ”
"The Kingdom of Northridge owns one-third of the land of the Westridge Plateau, and has an iron city under its banner, and Baron Gough in the small town of Stella is the nephew of the countess of Iron City. ”
"Worst of all, Baron Gough has promised the Countess that he will bring the sub-elves as a gift, and he wants to become the viscount of Stella Town. ”
"I also heard that the countess liked the sub-elves, it turns out that she also has sub-elves, but she is dead, my friend, what are you going to do?"
Gerald Tojia didn't want Roque to continue his march towards Stella Town, and the best thing to do was to leave quickly and hide Lan Ya and Hei Ya.
He was very grateful to Roque for killing Turton, and the expensive liquidated damages became a bubble, Gerald Tojia knew that the other party was very powerful, but if the matter was not handled well this time, it might be directly confronted by the Earl, which was a nobleman, and its power was unimaginable.
From Roque's calm expression, Gerald Tojia couldn't see the other party's inner thoughts, and he was a little anxious.
"Gerald, what do you think I should do?"
"Get out of here, take your sister with you, and go as far as you can. Gerrard replied earnestly, hoping that the other party would listen.
Roque silently left the stone, he stood up, facing into the distance, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, and said with a smile: "I knew you would suggest this, it is undeniable that this is the best course of action at the moment." ”
"But my sister they are not criminals, why should they hide, and escaping will not solve the problem, before the storm comes, allow you to calm down for a while, and in the end you will have to face it, because it blocks the light of dawn. ”
"Roque, as a friend, I know the anger in your heart, in order to survive, many times we have to make a lot of helpless decisions, for the sake of you, for the sake of your sister, I don't recommend you to challenge them, because it's not time yet, strength can determine freedom. ”
Gerald Tojia sincerely warned that he had come into contact with the nobles and that he deeply understood that a person's power was limited after all, and it could not compete with a huge force.
"Gerald, you're wrong, I'm not going to challenge them, I'm just going to reason with them, and besides, I can't go back, there's a cliff behind me, and once I do something like that, I don't have a tomorrow. ”
Roque has thought about it very seriously, and the development of Yali Village does not allow him to regress, everything is for survival and development.
Seeing that the other party was so resolute, Gerald Tojia did not persuade him, and after chatting with the other party for a while, he left, and the steel mercenary group must leave the town of Stella, otherwise it will get into trouble.
"Roque, take care, my friend, next time I'll treat you to a drink. ”
After hitting the road again, Vincent clearly sensed that there was some change in Roque, but he didn't ask, and followed silently.
Lan Ya and Hei Ya were faintly worried, although they didn't hear the content of his conversation with Gerald Tojia, they had an indescribable sense of unease in their hearts.
"Don't worry, we'll all be fine. Roque, who was walking, comforted him.
"Uh-huh. ”
"Brother, we believe in you. ”
After passing through a few dilapidated villages where people were empty, roads appeared on the ground, and the traces and footprints of horse-drawn carriages were very obvious.
Apparently, there are people moving around the area, and sometimes you can see bare bones on the side of the road, and some small beasts are gnawing on them.
Stella was a trading town, as it was strategically located and had many roads leading to caravans.
The town sits north to south, with a huge bazaar in the east and west, and in the middle of the town, there is an auction house where all the curiosities are auctioned off, and each auction is a grand banquet that attracts countless merchants and wealthy people.
"Take a look, take a look, these goods have just been shipped, and they are all useful things. ”
"The perfume of the Tin City, the beautiful lady should not be missed. ”
"Let's take a look at the master's latest work, and see how sharp it is, it's a rare weapon. ”
The streets were filled with people coming and going, merchants were diligently promoting their wares, and when Roque stepped into the small town of Stella, he could clearly feel the strange gazes of the people around him.
Some warriors with weapons passed him with bad intentions, and some even deliberately touched his shoulders, and the noisy atmosphere made Roque a little uncomfortable.
The same is true of Lan Ya and Hei Ya on horseback, they are nervous and nervous by the strange eyes around them, Vincent on the side is better, he is full of curiosity about his surroundings, he has never been to the town.
Roque never stopped, and after passing through the bustling streets, it was a little quieter, and taverns and inns abounded, and he was going to stay in one of them, waiting to meet Joede.
"Guests from afar, welcome to Sonia Lodge. ”
The owner of this inn was a woman in her thirties, with long wavy brown hair, who was not bad-looking, and had an unusually hot body.
The innkeeper took Roque's horse, and he would take care of it, and Sonia walked up to Roque enthusiastically, surprised when she saw Lan Ya and Hei Ya.
"She's so tall!"
This was Roque's first impression of Sonia, the other party was about the same size as himself, and he felt a little uncomfortable inexplicably.
"Hello, my name is Sonia, and I'm the owner of this inn. ”
"Hello, my name is Roque, this is Vincent, they are my sisters, Lan Ya and Hei Ya. ”
Both sides made friendly introductions, and Sonia looked at Roque carefully, and kindly reminded, "I can see that you are a good brother, no matter what happens, please protect your sister." ”
"Thank you, don't worry, no one can hurt them, please give me a quiet room, we need to rest. ”
"Of course, please come and register first, and I'll arrange the room." Sonia nodded and said enthusiastically.
After checking Roque and the others into check-in, Sonia returned to the counter and took a sip of the red wine in her glass, lost in thought.
"Boss, why don't you refuse their stay, those two sub-elves will cause trouble. The attendant, who was in charge of the horses, walked in and whispered.
"Maybe it's our chance, and I like a man like Roque. ”
"It turns out that the boss likes blind people. ”
