Chapter 1: The Fugitives

Next Chapter

When I woke up, I heard the sound of noisy conversations. It's amazing that I can't understand the language, but I can understand the meaning.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Have you heard of that matter, Duke Gonlon? ”

"It is said that he used this war as an excuse to collect temporary taxes?"

"That's it. If there is a young girl in the family who refuses to pay the tax, he will be taken to his mansion; Families without girls were set on fire as punishment. ”

"I'm so envious. If only I also had the authority to levy temporary taxes. ”

(Duke?) Tax? Lin Xuan moved his body and stood up, and there was a clangling sound under his feet. (This is ...... Armor? When he looked down, he saw a pair of silver-white armor covering his body except for his face, and the knight's sword, which had been leaning on his legs, fell down because of the movement, pressing on a small black notebook.

As if attracted by some mysterious power, Lin Xuan involuntarily squatted down and picked up the black book under the knight's sword.

This is a very ordinary small book in appearance, but the cover is ominous pitch black, if it is really placed in the supermarket, I am afraid that not many people will care.

Patting off the dust on it, after hesitating for a moment, Lin Xuan still turned it over. Page 1.

"RPGs?" Lin Xuan looked at the text on it with a strange face, the simplified characters he was very familiar with, if it weren't for the weird environment he was in, he would have thought it was a prank.

Turn the second page.

Shaking his head, he turned to page three.

The fourth page is blank, and then the fifth and sixth pages...... Even the last page is blank. After Lin Xuan repeatedly confirmed that he had not missed it, he closed the notebook and threw it to the ground without saying a word.

"Ness, what are you doing?" At this moment, a shouting voice came, but Lin Xuan ignored it. After weighing the knight's sword in his hand, he grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands, lifted it and inserted it into the notebook below.

Nothing out of the ordinary, the steel blade pierced straight through the black cover, sinking deep into the ground.

"Sure enough, is it a prank......" Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, pulled up his sword, and looked at where the voice came from. Can it be over? I'd love to help you through this game, but I still have ...... to do."

"What are you talking about?" The young man with curly yellow hair looked at Lin Xuan strangely, "How did you stick the sword into the ground for no reason, you must know that the sword is the soul of a knight......"

"Don't admit it? Forget it, anyway-" casually throwing away the long sword in his hand, Lin Xuan's gaze inadvertently swept the ground, and he suddenly choked in the middle of speaking.

The book with the black cover is still lying quietly on the ground, except that it looks a little dirty because it is covered in dust rolled up, just like when I first saw it.

"How can it be ......" Obviously, it has passed through the past just now, is it an illusion? Or a ghost? Pushing away the curly-haired man, Lin Xuan picked up the notebook and tore it hard, "tearing and pulling", it was easy.

But the next scene made him dumbfounded, as if going back in time and space, and the torn book slowly returned to the beginning.

"Ness! What the hell are you up to?! ”

Lin Xuan turned his head blankly, "Can you see it?" "Pointing to the book that is slowly recovering.。

"What?" The curly-haired young man asked suspiciously, "Is there anything there?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's okay, it's just that I'm not feeling well, what's the matter? ”

"Viscount Nott told us to come over and gather, hurry up, if you are late, you will look good......"

(What the hell is this...... Lin Xuan numbly followed the young man away, but in his eyes, he couldn't hide his horror.

―――――― divided ―――――― came to the phalanx of the soldiers of the so-called Viscount Nott, and heard a nonsense without nutrition.

"Our Nott family, since ancient times, has been subordinate to the Tenardier family, this time to follow the young master of Zion to participate in the war, we must protect the ......" The gray-haired old nobleman was still chattering on it, and after that, Lin Xuan didn't pay attention to it anymore, just kidding, if it is really like the one in the book, he will have to participate in the battle next, and it is a battlefield of life and death, it would be good to be able to save his own life, and he also had to protect others?

After listening to Viscount Nott's words in a mess, he only learned that his own strength was four times that of the other party until the end, but then that sentence directly annihilated Lin Xuan's luck psychology, Viscount Nott's cavalry will be at the peak of the entire army, and the first wave of charges will be carried out at the beginning of the battle.

In my memory, whether in a movie or a game, cavalry - especially the cavalry at the front of the charge - will always be the fastest to die, and the first thing you need to face is an ultra-long-range attack, trebuchet, or ranged magic? After that, there was an overwhelming array of bows and arrows, and after narrowly rushing through these two waves of death attacks, it was not safe to get close to the enemy formation, on the contrary, it was the most dangerous moment, pikemen, one of the most restrained cavalry professions, Lin Xuan could almost see the scene of many corpses running through the long hilt of the spear. In the end, if you really burst out of character and rush over, it is not flowers that greet you, but countless blades, even if it is a pile of human lives, they can pile you to death.

After thinking about this, Lin Xuan's pale face became more and more ugly, and when he returned to his camp, a thought couldn't stop coming to his mind.

(Not as good as ...... Run, right? In the beginning, the only requirement for that mission was to survive until the end of the campaign, and there was no mandatory requirement to survive until the end of the campaign, so just flee and hide until the victory and then reappear, right? However, judging from the comments I heard, even if the army of this country has four times the strength of the opposite side, I am afraid that it is not a 100% victory...... The prefects deliberately withheld the commoners, the high-level bullied the commoners, and the aristocracy was arrogant and rude...... It's a typical imperial twilight) Thinking about it, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh and stood up.

"Huh? Ness, where are you going? The yellow-haired young man asked strangely.

"Go out for a while......," he said, not knowing his name until he was leaving, but he forgot it to avoid suspicion. Stuffing the black notebook into his arms, after hesitating, Lin Xuan still picked up the knight's sword and walked out of the tent. Taking a deep breath, the cold air stirred Lin Xuan's spirits.

The night sky, which is not polluted by industry, is full of stars that can be clearly observed with the naked eye, especially on the horizon, where the faint silvery-white light is even more pleasing to the eye.

Lin Xuan's face changed greatly, he didn't care about the surprised eyes around him, he directly put his ears to the ground, and the dull sound slowly approached.

"Enemy Attack ――――――!!!" There was a panicked warning sound in the distance, and it suddenly stopped as soon as it sounded, and a faint dull sound of a sharp blade sinking into ** was caught by the ear.

The entire camp was thrown into chaos in an instant. Seeing this scene, Lin Xuan simply gave up his plan to follow the counterattack. Quickly put on his helmet and ignored the shouts from behind, fleeing in the opposite direction of the knight's charge.

The soldiers of the Brunay Kingdom were much more unbearable than Lin Xuan expected, but the enemy's direct charge fell into chaos, the command system did not even give a single order, and the officers scattered several counterattacks did not fail to rout in the hands of the enemy, but were scattered by their own soldiers and fell into greater chaos.

"There's an ambush ahead!"

"Hurry back!"

"Don't come over to the backβ€”huh!?"

"Helpβ€”"

There was a moist feeling on his face, and Lin Xuan subconsciously wiped it, and under the bright moonlight, the scarlet liquid flowed on the hand armor.

β€œβ€•β€•οΌοΌοΌβ€

Death has never been felt so clearly.

Lin Xuan pulled out his long sword vigorously and pointed forward: "The back road has been broken, only to charge forward!" There is a way to live! ”

"The back road is broken?!"

"What about the prince's guards?"

"They're all dead! There's a war queen on the other side! ”

"Run! The battle queen is here! ”

"Onward! Fast! ”

The chaotic soldiers were forced by the pressure of the rear, under the pressure of the fear of death, they could only grasp the only guide and follow Lin Xuan's instructions to kill forward, while Lin Xuan hid in it and calmly observed the battle, carefully avoiding several melee areas, but still encountered the enemy near breaking through the encirclement, and looked back, when they were scattered, there were less than ten people around, and fortunately, there were not many people on the opposite side, only seven, and there were several wounded among them.

"Follow me!" At this time, Lin Xuan couldn't fish in troubled waters anymore, in terms of equipment alone, these on his body were the best among the ten people, and in terms of employment, his status as a knight was also the highest compared to ordinary soldiers, and if he still retreated at this time, he would only be dragged here. Thinking of this, Lin Xuan simply raised his sword and charged, but he still played a clever trick, and it was one of the injured people that Lin Xuan rushed to.

There was no explosive power, no boiling blood, only a cold blade reflecting the moonlight.

Charge, raise your sword, slash hard.

Calmly carrying out these three steps, killing people was easier than expected, and the knight's sword split the spear that the opposite soldier hurriedly parried, and because of the injury, his movements were obviously slower. The blade cut through the broken armor, submerged into the **, there was an obscure sense of barrier, and occasionally there was a sound of bones breaking, and finally returned to smoothness, bringing out a stream of hot blood, swaying in the air.

"Let's go!" didn't look back to observe the first person killed in his life, Lin Xuan was afraid that he couldn't help it, so he just shouted, and didn't wait for others to come over, and fled by himself.
