The captain left very decisively, and after arranging the itinerary here, he left with another team member. On the other side, another team member led everyone in the direction of the town pointed out by the captain. This was originally something that the captain had arranged before, and there was nothing to say. Little York had also come back to his senses at this time, knew what the situation was now, and also stood up and followed everyone forward.

Because this was originally a mine, it was a secret, so the lord at that time did not develop many roads around it, and even this mine only had a road in charge of ore transportation and material import, and even ordinary people could not walk on this road, and even the families of the miners had to be connected to the side of the mine, which formed the prototype of this town. And after the output of the mine is no longer profitable, the lord will not spend a lot of money to build bridges and pave roads for these untouchables, and the road in and out now is still opened by the lord at that time, and it is already a small project for the people in the town to be able to keep it spontaneously, and no one will open a new road.

It is for this reason that now everyone has to advance in the deep mountains, bypassing the places that can be seen in the town, and at least going out of the old forest for a long time, that is to say, today for a long time to move forward in the old forest. The so-called old forest, that is to say, the forest that few people have walked, whether there are wild beasts in it, whether there are poisonous substances, where there are cliffs and where there are tunnels, these are all black, and the speed of progress is not as fast as on the avenue, plus little York's body is still a little weak, and he walks even slower.

After walking for a long time, the sky has begun to darken, and everyone finally folded out of the old forest: before the sun shone, the forest has been dim, the fallen leaves under the feet are layered, plus the roots of the tree are coiled, the vines are staggered, if you are not careful, you will fall, but also to guard against poisonous insects and beasts, you can only walk slowly with one foot deep and one foot shallow; now the sky is dark, you can't see clearly under your feet, and you can't walk, and now everyone is far away from the town, even if there are evil god believers in the town, they are not afraid of being discovered, so everyone you help me and I support you, and then I walk from the woods to the main road。

Panting, little York sat down on the road. Although this seems to be shameless, the people around him are not in the mood to laugh at him. In fact, the members of the team of Radish also brought some attention to this trainee scholar: it is not easy for even healthy and energetic warriors to walk in the jungle, let alone this frail scholar?

A knight walked up to Little York and handed his water bag to Little York: "Drink, I don't see that you kid is really energetic." Little York unceremoniously took the water bag, poured two sips into the bag, and then reached out to wipe the sweat on his head, already tired and speechless.

The other knights also found a suitable place to sit down, slowly drank water and chewed cakes, replenished water and regained strength.

Radish was no exception, and although Radish was good in all kinds of knightly trainees, he had no experience in field marching, and he was the one who walked slowly except Little York. But it's also because he still has to hold on to little York, which also makes Carrot, who has always felt good, wake up a little: he is not a very good little stack of people.

Because they were in a hurry, they chewed the bread, drank the water, rested for a while, and then got up and moved forward again. Fortunately, after that, we moved forward on the road, and there was not much else to pay attention to, and the speed increased a lot, and finally, under the guidance of the moonlight, everyone walked to that city.

The city had already been curfew, the gates were closed, and only two soldiers were still keeping vigil on the tower, keeping an eye on the surrounding movements. Now that the Principality of Manhattan is still at war, the soldiers who would have been lazy have cheered up one by one, for fear that something will be missed.

Although it had been dark for some time, the guards still didn't dare to wander, their eyes widened, and they didn't dare to wander in the slightest. Suddenly, faintly, the guards saw several figures walking on the road ahead, one of whom did not seem to be wearing a shirt. The guard hurriedly called out to his companion who was leaning aside: "Wake up, there are a few strange people coming over there, wait a minute, be ready to report." ”

The companion was still a little confused, but when he heard this, he shivered and sobered up. Rubbing his eyes that were still a little dizzy, he also saw these people, and hurriedly picked up the gun next to him and stood up straight: "No problem, let's ask about the situation first." Looking at the few people who had already walked under the city gate, he asked aloud, "Where did you come from? What are you doing here?"

Hearing the inquiry of the city guards on the city gate, the leader of the radish team replied: "We are members of the Knights of the Eternal Radiant Sun Sect of the Nimitz Empire, and we were ordered to investigate the shady scenes behind this war, and now we have found it, and we should have reported back, but the military situation is too late to return home, and I hope to be able to discuss with the church here!"

Hearing this, when it came to their own suzerain, the city guards did not dare to slack off, but they could not identify it, so they said: "I'm sorry, do you have any tokens that can prove your identity? Before we find out your identity, we have no right to open the door and let you enter the city." ”

The acting captain nodded: "Understand, this is a token." So saying, he took out of his bosom a cross of the eternal sun, and placed it in the basket that had been lowered from the city gate. The city guards pulled the basket up and looked through the dim light of the torch at the head of the city. Although he is only a small city guard, he can't tell what the intricate patterns on this cross represent, but just looking at these patterns, the patterns are clear and not messy, not like ordinary people can imitate them; Although I don't know the authenticity of these things, I can't provoke such a thing with high purity and good quality and gorgeous patterns, so I hurriedly confessed to the following: "Everyone, please wait a minute, this matter cannot be decided by the subordinates, and you need to ask your superiors." ”

The acting captain nodded, beckoned everyone to sit down at the place where they could see the city gate, and began to drink and eat, waiting for the feedback from the city guards. As everyone knows, these city guards on duty do not have the power to open the city gates, only their superiors have this power. In that case, no one will reproach him for not taking him into the city.
