Chapter 42: Crossing the River

Two days have passed, and the three of them have entered the domain of the wild wolf. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This wolf beast is almost as big as a calf, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, iron back and steel claws, fierce and violent, hidden in the dead woods, elusive, difficult to entangle, much more powerful than the rabbit beasts, fox beasts, sheep beasts and the like encountered before.

Fortunately, the monsters in the Garden of Eden seem to follow the law of stronger and rarer, and this kind of wild wolf is no longer overwhelming like the previous ones, but is divided into small groups, so that the three of them have a chance to breathe.

"Whew-"

Huang Shang pulled out the reactive sword that pierced the blood-colored eyes of the last wild wolf beast, and the three of them took the Apocalypse Fruit, and found a clean place in the forest to sit down to recover their strength, Huang Shang smiled: "Legend has it that the Garden of Eden is the Garden of Life, why are it all monsters?" ”

"Who knows? This may not be the Garden of Eden as recorded in the Bible at all, but it was just called it by the past. Viche wiped the blood from his face and pouted, disgusted.

"At our current pace, how many days will it take to reach the Primordial Tree?" The yellow dress looked up at the gray sky, and it seemed to be this lifeless, dull hue forever, with no day and no night.

Beraud opened his eyes, took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "If everything goes well, about thirteen days." In front of us is the Euphra River, and there will be bird monsters after passing it. ”

"It's okay, there's Vesie, what are you afraid of." Huang Sheng patted the bag of arrows behind his back, and didn't care, "The real trouble is those guys who have become knights, if you come to a few, we will be in danger." ”

Wei Xi opened her big blue eyes and wondered, "We didn't provoke them, what danger would there be?" ”

"Maybe there are such weirdos, who look at people unpleasantly, and cut them with a knife." Huang Shang said, sighing that Weixi is really a good boy.

"There's no need to worry too much about this, the strength has swelled suddenly, it's not so easy to master, it's not as good as those old knights outside, with the three of us, there's no problem in dealing with one or two." Beraud is calm and analytical, and he is well-founded.

The three of them rested for a while, set out again, killed thousands of wolves, and the next morning, according to the clock clock, they arrived at the river Euphra, but were blocked in their way.

This river is very wide, the water flow is turbulent, the narrowest place is nearly a hundred zhang, there are all kinds of water monsters hidden in it, hidden from time to time, much more dangerous than the ground, although there are trees, the predecessors have learned, do not cross the raft, once the water monster in the river is found to be helpless, if it is crazy to overturn the raft, then it is over.

If the boat can't be built, it can only rely on the bridge, and there are just such bridges on the four great rivers of Eden, which are naturally generated and not built by man.

Bolaud stood on the bank of the river, carefully examined the terrain, and suddenly pointed to a flying cliff boulder shaped like an elephant on the opposite bank: "The Flying Elephant Stone, the nearest bridge of fire is upstream, go quickly, every year someone occupies the bridgehead and forcibly harvests the Apocalypse Fruit, I hope we come fast enough." ”

But it was still late.

The three of them rushed along the river for about six miles, and saw a long fiery red bridge flying over the river, as if it was burning, very magnificent, and at the head of the bridge here stood three people in heavy armor, the breath was loose and huge, obviously the newly promoted knights, who occupied the bridgehead.

"It's still too late...... Beraud slowed down and said in a low voice, "These remaining knights are mostly the sons of vassals of some top nobles, and they have removed some opponents for their young lords who are fighting for the original fruit. ”

Indeed, the three knights occupied the bridge and forcibly harvested the Apocalypse Fruit, even if it passed, the hope of reaching the Primordial Tree would inevitably be greatly reduced.

Huang Shang asked: "Acting so domineeringly, aren't you afraid of causing a backlash?" ”

You must know that this time the primordial fruit is ripe, and there are not a few sons of top nobles who have come in, and even there are more than 20 princes and princesses of various royal families, no matter who it is, it is impossible to filter out all of them.

Beraud shrugged his shoulders and said: "The real top nobles and royal families, showing their identities, they naturally dare not stop them, and those characters naturally have vassals who became knights early." ”

"What about the two of you, are you qualified enough?" Huang Shang asked curiously, ready to hug his thighs, if he can not fight, it is naturally better not to fight.

"My father and Mr. Holmes are both dukes, and Mr. Holmes is also one of the strongest knights of the twilight in the world today, and he should be able to do so."

As the line got closer, Wei Xi saw the patterns on the armor of the three knights, and said in a low voice: "It's a little troublesome, it's the German royal family, I don't know who came in this time." ”

In 1905, the emperor of the German Empire was the famous Wilhelm II, the first grandson of Queen Victoria, and his wife was the British princess Augusta Victoria, who was also the granddaughter of Queen Victoria, and the couple had six sons and one daughter, among which Crown Prince William and the only princess Victoria-Louise were very favored, and the remaining four sons were mediocre.

Kaiser Wilhelm II was a staunch critic of the Yellow Peril, believing that the Eastern countries, especially China and Japan, were a strong threat to the countries of Europe, and once made a famous "Yellow Peril" and gave it to his cousin, Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, and signed it autographically.

Under the stern light of the three horsemen, the three stepped forward, and Beraud raised his sword and said in a deep voice: "Beraud Na Montgomery, Visey Van Holmes is here, who is opposite?" ”

He spoke in English, and the three knights also raised their swords and reported their names and surnames in German, all of them German nobles, and bowed down and said, "The two of you are noble, please cross this bridge." ”

The three of them moved, and with a click, two big swords lay horizontally in front of Huang Shang, and a knight stared at him coldly: "As for this Dongfang, hand over all the fruits of the Apocalypse on your body!" ”

In German, which he spoke, Huang Shang was naturally "at a loss, and did not understand a word", and Beraud stepped forward: "He is our companion, the designee of Mr. Holmes, who should cross this bridge." ”

The three horsemen exchanged their eyes secretly and quickly for a while, perhaps because of the deterrent power of the name Sherlock Holmes, and slowly withdrew their swords.

"Waitβ€”don't let him go, this man has insulted Germany!" Two men rushed out of the woods, a man and a woman, and the woman shouted loudly.

Cha!

The big sword was resealed, and the knight said, "You dare to insult our motherland? ”

"Never!" Beraud shouted in a deep voice, turning to look at the pair of men and women who were rushing over, "Mido, Elsa, Gu Zeng saved you from the monster with his own hands, why do you want to slander him?" ”

In the face of the calm and stern gaze of the upper Beraud, Miudo could not help but bow his head, and Elsa raised his head and said angrily: "Although he saved us, he ridiculed the weakness of our Germanic people, not an insult, but what?" ”

"You!" Beraud's eyes were full of murderous intent, and if it weren't for the wrong timing, he was afraid that this honest man would have drawn his sword on the spot.

Huang Shang has a way to pierce her on the spot, but she can't do it herself.

"Wait a minute," Vicie said with a grin, "Elsa, do you understand what I'm saying?" ”
