Chapter Fifty-Six: Gerald
Outside the hunting grounds, inside the big tent.
A group of students gathered, almost all of them had the joy of returning victoriously on their faces, only a few of the students whose friends died in the battle showed a little sadness, two cows and a few sheep were roasting on the fire in the center of the tent, and the waiters were busy smearing the barbecue with honey and condiments.
This night will be spent outside the hunting grounds, and in order to give the students plenty of physical strength, the Scarlet Castle decided to stay out for the night.
In addition to the students, the instructors were also in the crowd to celebrate the triumph of these students.
......
"Loraine~~~"
Avril, who was wearing a goose-down dress, looked radiant, holding two glasses of wine in her hands, found Loraine who was contemplating in the corner of the tent, handed him a glass of mellow wine, and said with a smile: "Why are you here alone in a daze, let's go to Caroline and Rodney for a drink together?"
"Nope. ”
Luo Lan's heart was faintly uneasy, the picture of killing Traham lingered in his mind, he took a sip of wine, tasted some faint sweetness, and said: "You go, I won't go, I want to be alone." ”
"That ......"
Avril looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "Then I won't go either, I'll stay here with you for a while." ”
"Well, that's ......"
Avril bent down and sat on Loran's bench, and suddenly a faint fragrance entered Loran's nose, he knew that Avril had gone to the female student's tent to bathe and change clothes just now, although the pressure on the trainees of the Scarlet Castle during training was unimaginable, and even many times they had to face death, but the treatment of the official students of the Scarlet Castle was quite good, even higher than the treatment of ordinary knights, and every time they traveled, almost every student would be equipped with one or two attendants, which was already an unwritten rule.
The two of them sat quietly, enjoying the heat from the stove and watching the figures of men and women in the distance.
As a result, it didn't take long for Caroline to come over with a wine glass in her hand, still holding a plate of honey-glazed venison leg in her hand, and said with a smile: "Loraine, come and try it, Avril, can you taste it too?"
"Okay, thanks. ”
Luo Lan took out a dagger, inserted a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, crispy and sweet, and couldn't help but smile: "It tastes good~~~"
Caroline was sunny and cheerful, smiled, tilted her head to look at Lorain, and said, "When we returned from the hunting ground just now, you looked a little wrong when you saw me, Loland, what happened?"
"Nope. ”
Luo Lan shook his head, and said in a calm voice: "It's just to see you come back alive and feel happy for you." ”
"Really?"
Caroline pursed her red lips and raised an index finger, and suddenly the star source power surged around her fingers, crackling and very strong, she squinted a pair of beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "If you say that you are worried that others will not come back alive, I believe it, but you are worried about me...... Please, I'm Caroline, a genius girl from Rayshire County, won't I be able to come back? ”
Suddenly, Luo Lan's face turned red, and he said stubbornly: "I'm really a little worried about you." ”
"Really?"
Caroline continued to tilt her head to look into his eyes, a pretty face full of a playful smile, and said, "Lorain~~~ Shouldn't you like me?"
"I ...... I didn't?" Loren was confused.
"It's okay, I really like it, and it's okay. ”
Caroline gently flicked her long golden hair, a pair of sapphire eyes smiled, and said, "Although you are usually silent like a stuffy jar, but...... I think you're not bad, if it's Loraine you, I can consider dating you, how about it, now I'll miss you a word of affirmation. ”
"I ...... I didn't ......" Loren was in a mess.
"Ahem......"
Avril took a sip of wine and coughed.
"Oh oh~~~" Caroline smiled whimsily, and said, "I almost forgot, our Lorain has long been famous, Avril, don't mind, I'm just kidding!"
Avril said speechlessly: "It's okay, I'm afraid that Lorain won't be able to suppress your enthusiasm." ”
"No, I'm very reserved. ”
Caroline turned around, holding the wine glass to tease other male students, Lorraine shook her head with a wry smile, in the face of this little goblin, almost any male student in the entire Scarlet Castle was powerless, and even the usually arrogant and silent Rodney didn't want to fight her, she was not an opponent at all.
......
"Caroline, she...... How's it going?" Avril asked, shaking the glass in her hand, intentionally or not.
"Not bad. ”
Luo Lan looked at her and asked with a confused expression, "Why do you suddenly ask that?"
"It's nothing, just ask. Avril pouted.
At this moment, not far away, a beautiful figure walked over, wearing a white dress, long hair fluttering, it was the magical girl Lin Ke from the mysterious sea, she became the focus of many male students as soon as she appeared, everyone looked at her, Lin Ke's appearance and figure can be called the leader of the blood-colored cage training camp, even Caroline, Avril, a recognized beauty, is slightly inferior to her, especially the sense of mystery that exudes her body, which makes a group of male students want to stop, and even some instructors can't help but cast an admiring expression.
At this time, Lin Kelian walked towards Luo Lan, holding a glass of wine in her hand, and her body was filled with a faint magical luster, and she was walking towards Luo Lan, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, until she walked in front of Luo Lan, the corners of her mouth hooked a beautiful arc, and said with a smile: "Luo Lan, congratulations on walking out of the Spring Patrol hunt alive, sincerely, congratulations!"
"Thank you, Ke Lin. ”
Lorain picked up the wine glass and touched her, but his heart was full of turmoil, he knew that the scene of his killing of Traham, Mondstadt and others was completely witnessed by Lin Ke, at this time, as long as Lin Ke's words can make Loran fall into a * annoyance, after all, even if the Scarlet Castle is not pursued, but the huge family behind Traham will never give up.
If this huge family in Dongyi Province wants to deal with Luo Lan, it is too easy, as long as it spends a lot of money to buy the people of the Blood Castle, he can be killed quietly, or even without spending money at all, the family high-level directly informs the Blood Castle, maybe the Blood Castle will not be able to withstand the pressure, and finally correct Luo Lan.
Therefore, Lin Ke's words may be able to determine Luo Lan's life and death.
And in front of her, this beautiful girl with a small dimple on the corner of her mouth, after clinking glasses with Luo Lan, she took a shallow sip, and was suddenly choked by the wine, her brows were twisted together, she stuck out her tongue, and said with a smile: "How can this taste so big?"
"Is it big?"
Lorain shook his glass and took another sip.
Lin Ke sneered, and then stepped forward, his beautiful face getting closer and closer, until he was less than twenty centimeters away from Luo Lan, and said in a low voice: "I will look for you again, what you owe me has not been repaid~~~"
"Huh?"
Loren was confused.
Lin Ke turned around and was immediately surrounded by a group of male students.
On the side, Avril frowned lightly and said, "What do you owe her?"
"I don't know......" Luo Lan was a little confused, "Maybe it'...... A book, but it stands to reason that she doesn't need to be in such a hurry to go back, I don't know what she's doing. ”
"Hmph~~~"
Avril snorted softly, but didn't speak.
......
Late at night, the students were arranged in their respective tents, and slept quietly, Luo Lan's tent was arranged with a total of eight students, and the beds were only half a meter apart, so almost all the students slept with long swords, and no one dared to be careless.
In the early hours of the next morning, at the sound of a trumpet, the cadets got up, and after breakfast, rode back to the Scarlet Castle.
After a night's sleep, Lorain relied on the strong physical strength, although the injury has not yet healed, but it is already extremely strong, and Avril rode side by side in the cadet sequence, until in the afternoon, the setting sun fell on the cavalry, reflecting a long figure in the field, and in the distance, the outline of the majestic blood-colored castle was already faintly visible.
Finally, he left the Spring Patrol Hunting Ground, which made all the trainees breathe a sigh of relief.
......
"Welcome back, kids!"
Above the gate of the castle, an old knight held a wine jug in his hand, raised the wine jug to the students in the distance, laughed, he was an old knight who was at least seventy years old, his hair and beard were already snow-white, but he was in good spirits, and he was wearing a knight's badge on his chest, which made a group of students stunned.
"Huh?"
Catherine rode her war horse to the city and couldn't help but smile: "It turns out that Boss Gerald is back!, how is the battle with the Demon Beast Legion in the north going well?"
"The fight went well. ”
The old knight's face was flushed, obviously drunk, and he said, "But I'm not going well." ”
"Oh, what's going on?" asked Catherine.
The old knight poured the flask, only one drop, and said, "The last barrel of wine from Qionghu has been drunk." ”
Catherine rolled her eyes and rode forward: "Then stay where you are cool!"
A group of students all looked up at the old knight in the city, their faces were full of doubts, this is a high-level heavenly knight, it can be said that he is only one step away from the knight of light, and he can make Catherine use the word "you", such a person can see how outstanding his status in the Scarlet Castle is.
"Who is he?"
Luo Lan also asked in surprise.
On the side, Mikaela lowered her voice and said with a smile: "Lord Gerald, one of the fathers of the Scarlet Castle, is responsible for leading the army of the Scarlet Castle to the north to fight against the Demon Beast Legion, and has made countless feats over the years, and was canonized as one of the Meritorious Knights by the Empire, and his status in the Scarlet Castle is second only to Lord Catherine, but he has a bad problem, he is addicted to alcohol, otherwise, I am afraid that he would have become the commander of a certain legion in the Empire." ”
"Little girl, I heard you!"
In the city, the old knight's face turned red, and he pointed at Mikaela and said with a smile: "But Lord Ben forgives you." ”
Mikaela stuck out her tongue, didn't dare to speak again, and led Lorain and the others into the castle.
