A sumptuous wagon of horses sped through the forest, and the metal wheels purred through the dirt to catch the attention of the beasts of the forest.

Some eyeless beasts attacked the caravan, but the perimeter of the convoy seemed to have an invisible wall, and the beasts crashed into the perimeter and immediately turned into a fishy meat sauce.

At this time, Eve in the carriage knocked on the teacup she had just finished slightly, and her eyes kept wandering over the scenery outside the window. Dennis looked at his young lady's fingers tapping on the cup, and Dennis, who had been with her for many years, knew very well what this small gesture of young lady represented.

She was nervous, and very uneasy.

After a while, Eve finally spoke, breaking the silence between the two, "Dennis, do you think he has entered the forest?"

Dennis looked up and reminded, "Miss, you've asked this question no less than five times today. ”

"Really... Miss Ben was rude. Eve apologized.

The old butler shook his head slightly, and sighed uncomfortably, wondering if the church had put too much pressure on the young lady, causing her to be really not in line with her usual behavior.

"Actually, I don't know. "But if I were that child, chased by soldiers from all directions, I would have chosen to go into the forest in order to survive." ”

"If you are surrounded, you will definitely die, and if you enter it, you can still survive in a desperate situation, so Miss, you better prepare yourself mentally. ”

Eve clenched her teacup slightly.

"Dennis, do you mean to say that Miss Ben is going to prepare for the worst?" she asked softly, as if it were none of her business. But the teacup in her hand betrayed her very nervous mood at this time.

The old butler sighed and nodded slightly, "I also hope my own guess is wrong. ”

"Miss, we're here!" roared the elite knight on horseback, and the luxurious caravan of horses had traveled for many days until it reached the perimeter of the 'Silent Forest'.

"So, I'll get out of the car and check around first. When the carriage came to a stop, Dennis opened the door and went down.

He looked up, and the area around the Silent Forest was deserted except for his own convoy and trees, and there was not the slightest sound of birdsong, let alone the chirping of insects, and it was eerily quiet.

"It's really like the name, it's the 'Forest of Silence'. ”

As he cleared a bush, he was shocked to find the footprints of many soldiers on the dirt, as well as the marks of the wheels of the carriage. And the direction they are pointing in is the dark forest in front of them.

All the soldiers of Longdu Mansion have entered the forest.

"It's not good..."

Dennis didn't know how many of those soldiers would make it out of the terrifying forest in front of him alive until the end. If the legend were true, I am afraid that no one would survive.

Half a moment later, Dennis finally came to the conclusion that more than 2,000 elite soldiers had entered the forest. He came to the carriage and knocked on the door, then entered the carriage.

"What was the result?" asked Eve softly.

"Not ideal. Dennis paused, then finally decided to state the results, "I found a large number of footprints and carriage marks on the dirt, all pointing to the 'Silent Forest'. ”

When Eve heard Dennis's findings, she sat down on the couch as if deflated.

She knew exactly what that meant.

The next second, she exhaled heavily, and said to Dennis solemnly, "Then let's follow the footsteps and enter it." ”

"No, it's too dangerous. Dennis immediately refused, "This forest is too dangerous for you and for the knights of this team. If the legend is true, no one can come out of the forest. ”

"Then what do you say you should do?!" she slapped the table and stood up angrily, "Even though I am not officially a saint, I still have to fulfill the duties of a saint. What's more, I couldn't let him go and watch him get killed alive. ”

"Please note that the duties you are now carrying out are more than a piece of paper. Whether it's as the steward of the St. Bauhinia family or an old friend who has cared for you for many years, I can't let you go into such a dangerous place alone. Dennis said in a deep voice.

Eve's palms clenched tightly, and her determined eyes kept looking at Dennis's pupils, falling like sharp blades into Dennis's heart.

She's as stubborn as her mother.

"Then Miss Ben is now decided. ”

"In the name of St. Bauhinia, and by the name of my Bauhinia Joanna Eve, I will eventually enter the Forest of the Dead. ”

"Save Charlotte, and let her sign a dissolution contract. ”

"Until the moment my blood runs out, I will never give up. ”

"Swear by it!"

Her melodious voice was as loud as a flood into the ears of every knight.

When the knights heard their master's oath, they respectfully knelt down and beat their hearts heavily.

"I have heard it, and I will die for you!" they replied firmly, as sharp and loud as a sword.

Dennis clenched his fists and squinted at Eve as she stood, wondering what she was thinking. Eventually, he let go of his clenched fist and sighed as if giving up.

"Since you have made up your mind, young lady, and made an oath, it is not easy for me, an old fellow, to say anything. Dennis sighed.

"So, have you agreed to let us into the forest?" said Eve, her eyes sparkling like deep blue gems, and only then did she show a look and movement befitting her age.

The girl gradually began to grow up, and she was no longer the little girl who had to take care of herself. Whether it is Eve's appearance or this tenacious character, it is no different from her mother.

Coming back from his contemplation, Dennis nodded to Eve, "I only have two conditions, and that is that you cannot leave my protection without permission after entering the forest, because even I cannot guarantee that I will be able to get out of this forbidden land alive." ”

"Well, Miss Ben can vouch for that. And what about the second condition?"

"The second condition is that you don't regret your decision. He said heavily, "You must know that you are now in control of the life and death of the entire team of knights, including my life. ”

"So whatever the end result is, you're going to have to take it all by yourself. ”

At this moment, Eve seemed to have an invisible pressure on her shoulders that was even heavier, and she nodded cautiously to Dennis in response. To be honest, it was the first time she felt the pressure of being a nobleman. Controlling the lives of dozens of guards, he could disappear from the world at any time under the wrong decision.

"If you've got everything ready, let's go. Dennis beckoned to the window and motioned for the knights to return to the carriage.

Eve nodded, looked out the window and gave orders to the knights.

"Head to the Forest of the Dead. ”
