Chapter 432
In the dark night, with a large and heavy cloud obscuring the silver moon and all the starlight, combined with the hot and dry air, it was clear that a storm was coming.
Surrounded by a few bright bonfires, wagons were parked in the outer ring as makeshift fortresses, and apart from the guards who stood guard in shift, men and women who had been tired from a long day snuggled up to the dancing flames, eating dinner and chatting casually.
"Hey, Charlie, have you heard, the family that has been following the team far away these days...... Your Excellency is said to be a super strong man. Downey, with some thinning red hair, looked excited to share the news with his friends.
Charlie, who only had one eye, took a sip of the Homme wine he brought, his eyes were full of disdain, "Cut, I also use you to say, I also know that the divinity of the Daoist is related to death, and he has summoned tens of thousands of undead in the town before!" ”
"How many, tens of thousands?" Donnie, who was not highly educated, could not imagine what that concept was, he could only look at the ten fingers of his hands, and only after a while did he ask, "Is it really?" Is it so powerful? Isn't that legendary? But he was still deeply convinced of Charlie's words, if it weren't for the accidental loss of an eye, maybe Charlie, who has the strength of a high-level warrior, would still be adventuring outside.
"Of course, it is said that our young lady personally came to the door to ask someone to help, hehe, this time with the help of that Excellency, I believe that Master Glenn is going to have a headache, and wants to bully our young lady, I'm bah!" Although some of the things that have happened to my own young lady recently, although I don't know the details, as a subordinate, I can still hear some rumors, such as Catherine's distant cousin, Young Master Glenn wants to inherit the Marquis of Younas under various excuses.
"Do you think there will be anyone on the road this time?" As he said this, Donnie suddenly compared his hand to his neck.
Charlie took another sip of wine, and a cold light flashed in his only eye, "Nonsense, you haven't seen Miss stay in town for so long, and she didn't leave until this Excellency came?" I'd bet on a silver knight, someone on the road must have done it! ”
Donnie, who was uneasy in his heart, was a little incredulous, "No, Miss is the future marquis, who dares to be so bold?" Aren't you afraid of the Holy Code? ”
"Huh, Holy Codex? Look at the current situation in the principality, besides, our young lady hasn't inherited the title yet. Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed in his heart, it's a pity that the young lady failed to awaken the divinity or godhead, otherwise as long as she has first-level strength, even if she is named a lord first, as long as she has this noble status, people will be afraid a lot.
Not far away, surrounded by several tents, in the most gorgeous tent in the entire camp, Catherine was looking at the parchment roll in her hand in a daze, looking at the latest information from the royal capital, her good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her bright white face showed a trace of exhaustion.
I didn't expect the situation to deteriorate so much, Glenn, a disgusting bloodsucker, did not hesitate to sacrifice the interests of the Younas family for his own selfish interests!
Did he really think he couldn't see it? Aren't those families who support him just for the province of Murray, this territory, including the river corridor, is a place of interaction with the Fairmont Kingdom, with developed commerce and a rich annual income, and those greedy guys have long been ready to move.
Now that Calester has invaded, and his family's power has been almost completely destroyed in the war, these people have taken the opportunity to provoke Glenn to come out and fight for the title, and their intentions are simply known to everyone.
No way! I must not lose, if Glenn inherits the title, God knows how much will be left of the Younas family's territory that has been inherited for hundreds of years!
Damn, why did he have to be obsessed with knowledge and art before, if he could spend more effort on bloodline development, maybe he would already be a lord by now, and Glenn would not be qualified to compete with him at all.
Thinking of this, a terrifying figure suddenly flashed in front of her eyes, if, if she could have that kind of strength, who would dare to make these small movements now?
Strength, my father is right, sure enough, all art, knowledge, and culture are vain, and only strength is eternal!
I used to be so stupid!
In a lonely tent far from the camp, Xia Dong sat quietly on the bed.
I have to say that the nobles of this world are indeed very good at enjoying life, and this kind of large bed that can be quickly disassembled and assembled is obviously invented for travel use.
Listening to the laughter and scolding from afar, he only had a faint sense of alienation, in fact, this feeling has always existed, because he is from the earth, and when facing this world, he can be moved, angry, and sad, but he just can't fully integrate, which makes him sometimes can't help but laugh at himself.
Look at how good the protagonists in those movies and novels are, they follow the local customs in minutes after crossing over, why are they so stubborn?
Because it was already night, the undead around him began to be active again, and even if he didn't have to deliberately feel it, he could tell that they were flying and circling around, and the air temperature in the tent was already at least ten degrees lower than outside.
Taking a sip of wine in some anguish, he thought depressedly again about this unsolvable question, how on earth he should let them rest in peace.
These things can't always follow you like this, right? It's okay to be alone now, it's a big deal that people hate ghosts, but what if you find your parents and Hua Wei? Do you want to keep it that way?
Suddenly, a slightly suppressed feeling rose in his heart, and this state of déjà vu immediately made him stand up, and with a long sword in each hand, he strode out of the tent.
This feeling had come up a few times, first in the church in the town of Nice, when I didn't care about it, but it didn't take long for the demon to come, and the second time in the town, and then I ran into an ambush by the Calestrians.
Although Xia Dong didn't know where Lu Dao's strange premonition came from, he would no longer be careless.
Looking around, under the dim and gloomy sky, there was silence all around, except for the occasional sound of laughter from the camp.
Seeming that nothing was out of the ordinary, he quietly closed his eyes, felt the alarm in his heart grow stronger, and inserted the weapon sheath into the dirt, and he took a closer look around him again.
On the right was an empty and uninhabited road, and the darkened forest in front and on the left was silent, except for the faint rustling of the branches and leaves that swayed in the wind from time to time, not to mention humans or wild beasts, not even the cries of insects.
Wrong! It's too quiet, and if things are abnormal, there will be demons.
Thinking of this, he jerked out his twin swords and shouted at the same time, "Who is coming!" "By doing so, you can bluff your opponents, which may make them stand out, and it will also be a reminder to your teammates who don't know about it, so that they don't know about being raided.
"Whoosh......" answered him with a dense black shadow and the sound of wind breaking through the air, and for a while, at least dozens of dark bows and arrows flew towards him!
