Chapter Twenty-Seven: Difficulty
"Damn...... Everyone actively participated in the battle, but I was stuck in injuries and couldn't go into battle to kill the enemy, which really Miss Ben. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Xiao Yi's hand holding the gun slowly trembled, under the gardenia tree in the back yard of the tavern, she threw away the silver gun and crutches, and leaned on the trunk to do some simple rehabilitation exercises, this subtle movement spread to the inside of the tavern, Mo Cha anxiously rushed into the courtyard from the side door, and saw Xiao Yi with a jealous face, and suddenly felt both relieved and a little disappointed.
"Commander, you're scared to death, now speaking of which, only that guy from Nabal is still rebuilding his power at sea, I can't get away from hearing the news for Chanda for the time being, that kid is more seriously injured than you, and the efforts of Wings of Freedom are seen by everyone, but the strength of just a few of us is not enough to change this chaotic future, so you don't have to blame yourself too much......, Commander," Mo Cha said, picking up Shaw's silver falcon gun, and returning the two guns and crutches to Shaw.
"Brother Cha, thank you. But I didn't give up, I have always believed in the heroic legend of the Holy King's retreat from darkness, and my ancestors were alchemists who sealed the Lord of Darkness, which means that I am also on a mission to seal Medius and dispel the eternal night. It's a pity that I'm not strong enough, in order to save the continent from the darkness, I must become stronger!Until I can kill the Lord of Darkness like the Holy King!" Shoey's fighting spirit gave Shaw the motivation to clench her pistol and pull the trigger on an arrow target not far behind Mo Cha.
The gunshot rang out, and the bullet flew past Mo Cha's head, hitting the red heart of the arrow target, and the overly frightened Mo Mo Cha looked at the target in a daze, and then looked at Xiao Yi, and said tremblingly: "Scared...... It scared the hell out of me...... Don't make fun of other people's heads......"
"Stupid...... I'm very polite!Brother Cha, come practice swords with me!" Xiao Yi put away his gun and asked Mo Cha for his own sword.
He was speechless about the title of Brother Cha, so he had to take out Mura Yu from the sword bag behind him, handed it to Xiao Yi, and slowly pulled out the black arc knife in the scabbard, and asked with a little worry: "Your injury...... Isn't it a little too reluctant to swing your sword now?"
She smiled, quickly pulled the long knife out of its scabbard, waved it like a fly, looked at the stammering Mo Cha and said, "Hehe." That guy was also on his way to the top in pain, and I can't lose to him. The current tea brother has the shadow of that person, so I want to surpass you. ”
"Maitreya Natsuhiko...... Perhaps, the appearance of him and Jian changed my life, I used to admire his strength, in order to become stronger, I imitated his swordsmanship, in terms of skills, the part you comprehended from the actual combat has already surpassed me. ”
After that, the swords of the two struck each other in the air for a few rounds, and Xiao Yi gradually regained the feeling of fighting in a simple duel, and knocked down the arc knife in Mo Cha's hand with one blow.
"The winner is divided, although you let me, but the fact is that I won. Put away Mr. Simon's knife for me, I'm going to visit Sieg. ”
Shoy neatly sheathed the sword, threw it back into his tea, picked up the cane on the ground, and turned and entered the tavern. Mo Cha looked at Xiao Yi's back, then looked at the knife in his hand, and couldn't help but smile.
"Tea Tristan, you're a pretty good big brother, and your sister has always been very cared for by you, right?"
The sound of talking came from the surroundings, and the vigilant Mo Mocha immediately looked around, and found a young man in a trench coat sitting on an iron bar extending from the second floor of the tavern, a pair of falcon-like eyes hidden under the flowing blonde hair, and a faint smile while looking at him.
"Are you...... Another Augst Shoy's brother?" He figured out his identity from the other man's words, and tilted his head to ask the other.
"First meeting, Mr. Tristan, I'm Faye Ogst, you must have learned about my existence from Hawke, right?" Fei replied simply, jumping off the iron rod and coming to Mo Cha.
"Hawke and I haven't been idle since Freedom Wings returned to the interior, and to be honest, I haven't talked to it in a long time. Mo Cha sighed, feeling sorry for her eagle.
The two of them each found a wooden stool in the courtyard and sat down, and they had become confidants before they met, and at the same time they began to talk about major matters related to the survival of Chanda.
"I said Fei, there are not many people like you who shoulder heavy responsibilities at a young age, I heard Instructor Kai say, you want to inherit the Freedom Knights, right?"
"I never wanted to be a leader, but now I've seen it all. If I was destined to be a hero against the darkness, why should I refuse this honor? But you, we've all experienced the days of dissoluteness and like to live an unrestrained life, but why did you come to Zenda and be an ordinary mercenary?"
In this regard, Mo Cha smiled, and there were endless memories behind the vicissitudes of life, and when Fei felt that he was speechless, he said it with relief.
"The reason is actually quite stupid...... Once, I stole a batch of good horses from Zenda, and on the same day a guy named Kenjubei came from far and wide to hunt me down. In the end, he saved my life on the gallows......"
"I've heard the instructor say that the Ten Guards rescued Delacro from the Riva at that time, and that's when you and Uncle Polislawi came to Zenda, right?" asked Filipino, slightly puzzled.
"Yes, I and Old White took advantage of the opportunity at that time to become members of the mercenary group, as companions of the Ten Soldiers, Maitreya Natsuhiko, Delacro, and even White, they all have excellent abilities, compared to me I seem a little redundant, with a competitive mentality, I gradually accumulated experience in actual combat, and gradually liked the life of mercenaries. The tea continued to taste and laughed a few times from time to time.
Fei was very interested in the mercenary group where Mo Cha had stayed, so he continued to ask: "Xiao Yi, how did she join you, why did your team disband in the end, and how is the current Freedom Wings formed?"
"Shaw has always been the most active child of Zenda, maybe Count Arassis taught her a lot of knowledge about the history of Calradia, because of this, in an important mission, Count Aracis advocated that Shaw join the mercenary group as an assistant and embark on a treasure hunt journey, as for the reason for the disbandment of the mercenary group later...... Although we get along fairly well on weekdays, but those people have long been dead, with our recognized leader Maitreya Natsuhiko on the way back from the treasure hunt without saying goodbye, for this Delacro also left us to go to the Holy Sect, the three masters who supported the mercenary group were only one of the ten soldiers, after Shoy inherited the Wings of Freedom, he also left on the grounds of looking for Natsuhiko, only me and Old White still held the last position, but Shaw did not disappoint us, not only persuaded the arrogant Nabal, but even the hippie smiling face but the extraordinary strength of the mirror also joined us, so the current Wings of Freedom was achieved......”
Mo Cha said tirelessly, Fei also listened to it with a lingering taste, in a blink of an eye it was already noon, the dark sky was still lifeless, just at this time the Dark Order Army established a command post in the suburbs of Chanda, hundreds of believers wielded axes to cut down the forest east of the You River, and once again began the construction of siege equipment, the city wall of Chanda is very likely to be hit by a second round of impact the next day.
After receiving the news from the herald, Fei hurriedly said goodbye to his confidant and rushed to the Earl's palace to discuss the next matters with the military leaders of Virgia and Nord. According to Valisian's account at the meeting, the Drua army blocked every road around Chanda, and the countries of Calradia were involved in endless wars with the Dark Followers in their borders, and the number of Dark Cultists far exceeded the estimates they had made at the final meeting, and in order to break the current stalemate, an excellent scout must break through the encirclement of Chanda and ask for help from the forces in the field.
"You say someone can do this? Breaking through the encirclement of thousands of troops, isn't this no different from sending him to death?" In the conference room, Varisian didn't even want to think about breaking through, as far as he was concerned, it was a fantasy to break through the encirclement.
"I also have confidence in the mercenary named Mo Cha, and when it comes to the ability to investigate, no one in Calradia can beat him. I'm sure he'll use all sorts of tricks to get rid of Druya's pursuit, but what reinforcements do we have to ask for besides the kingdom's regular army......" Joshim agreed with Filipe's opinion, but didn't know where to move the rescuers.
After listening to the narration of the two, Varisian really admired the ability of Mo Cha and felt that it was worth gambling, so he took a pen and wrote a letter, neatly folded it into an envelope, and handed it to Fei.
"So far, it's only a gamble, I'm not familiar with the other territories of the North Continent, but Etherrod must have heard of all the adults here, right?" Varisian put away his quill and talked about the name Etherrod, sighing regretfully from time to time.
The Nords led by Ragnar were at a loss, and the lords of Virgia also looked at each other, obviously knowing the truth, but sighed and said nothing, except for Aracis who nodded slightly, as if he had heard the name of the heinous sinner.
"The outlaw based on the plains of Ryrdian, Dorak Redhair, who claims to be the enemy of the people. Born in the slums of Zhivadine, who once led the Vigia rebels under the alias of Ethelrod, and shot several Vegia lords with his own hands, before escaping to Ryordian to do the work of occupying the mountains, Lord Boyer would not think that such a dangerous person would send troops for the sake of Chanda, right?"
Arassis could not believe that Ethelrod, who was known for his perfidy, would send troops to the aid of Chanda for the sake of Calradia's flame of hope, so he didn't care much about this offer.
Varisian sighed again, and said lightly: "It's not a secret, I also grew up in Zhivading when I was young, and unlike ordinary noble children, I was playful since I was a child, and I met little Wolfrey on the street, that was his name at the time, and we had a lot of friendship between us, if I brought this handwritten letter, I would definitely be able to say that he sent troops to support Chanda, but his whereabouts ......"
Hearing this, Faye felt that this method was feasible, so he asked Varissien where to find Ethrode, but the other party did not answer, and when Faye was a little impatient, he finally told the whereabouts of his wanted old friend.
"The source of the long river of Polac, the secluded dense forest, the place where the earth dragon curls up, is where the Dorak fortress is located......"
Faye kept repeating these prompts, and after receiving a reply from Varisian, he left the Earl's Court early, ready to implement this rescue plan with Mo Mo Tea as soon as possible, and passed through the long alleys and turned into the Happy Boar Tavern.
As soon as they entered the door, Fei and Mo Cha collided, and the two greeted each other briefly, and Fei took Mo Mo Tea to the tavern stable, and told Mo Cha the news and tasks he had gotten.
"It's a bit difficult, if I want to get rid of the thousands of cavalry of the Dark Order alone, I need someone to attract their attention for me. Listening to the task he was about to perform, Mo Mocha put forward his own opinion.
"How about I be your partner?" Fei said casually.
"Zenda needs you more, just lend me your thoroughbred BMW. ”
Mo Mocha also smiled, bluntly declined, and talked about his plan: "I plan to use the convenience of Zell Stone Mountain to get rid of the pursuers, and I can rest assured after entering the Virginia Plain from the East Gorge Valley, but I need someone to level the enemy chasing into the mountains for me, if you really want to help me, then break off the queen for me~"
"Alright, when it's all over, I'll return to Zenda through the secret passage at the foot of Mount Zel, but when we set out, we must break through the city gate, and we must not let the Druas discover where the secret passage is!"
Fei deliberately emphasized this point, and then took his fast horse out of the stable, handed the reins to Mo Cha, and finally asked: "Do you hear anything from those hints? With your wisdom, you must already know where to go?"
"Of course! There is a dense forest in the upper reaches of the Pollack River, only in the Misty Mountains, which is very dangerous, but it is also the best refuge for the worst of the worst!"
Before leaving, Mo Cha put the compass, map and other items into the duffel bag on the horse's back, hung a bow and a pot of arrows on the horse's rein, carefully checked the weapons and tools he carried, and then climbed on the horse's back with confidence.
"You have not disappointed me! It's time to go, and as soon as you get out of the east gate, you will follow me closely, and then you will proceed as planned, and I will clear your pursuers. Fei also jumped on his horse and set off with Mo Cha towards the east gate.
When the two passed by the weapon rack on the side of the street, they each took two kite shields and rode out of the east gate at all costs. As soon as they entered the field of vision of the besieging army, they were attacked by a fierce rain of crossbow arrows, but fortunately, the two of them were shielded, and their riding skills were exquisite, and they blocked a round of shooting with two shields, and finally broke through the relatively weak camp under the mountain, and then they were frantically pursued by hundreds of black knights, and the tide of cavalry disappeared on the mountain road of Zell Mountain with the two.
