The landform around Eagle's Nest City is neither a dense forest nor a vast plain, but a kind of stone forest-like landform that stands large and small, and I don't know how it was formed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The smallest stalagmites are one or two thick, nearly three meters tall, and the largest can even build a city on them, such as Eagle's Nest City.

Casio had been away from Greenwater for four or five days at this time, and was riding his horse, letting the horses pac in small steps, walking among the stone forests.

He did not choose the big road opened up by Eagle's Nest City, but according to his memory, he chose a small path that could be walked a lot less.

This place is only half a day's journey from Eagle's Nest City, and Casio is not in a hurry, but rather leisurely admiring the surrounding stone forest landforms.

Because if he didn't, he would definitely be nagged to death by the chatter Kazain.

"My lord, let me tell you about the 78th lord to whom I am allegiance. My 78th lord is a big fat man, but he likes ...... very much"

Casio grimaced, regretting why he was so cheap in the first place, and asked Kazain if there was any way he could not be obtrusive.

Kazain did not disappoint him at that time, and directly turned into a purple-blue lightning mark, which lodged on his left arm.

But because of this, Kazain chatters in his head almost every moment, except when he wants to rest. And he has almost no effective means to block this voice that rings directly in his head.

I just don't know if there is actually a way to block Kazain, but Kazain deliberately lies that there is none.

Casio had forbidden him to speak, but it lasted less than half an hour, and the conversation would start again.

Casio had thought about knocking this guy unconscious, but unfortunately Kazain was quite shrewd, and he would hardly reappear except for Casio's combat needs.

Casio really felt that he had been living in hell and suffering for the past few days.

Sighing lightly, Casio swore that if he had the next chance to come out alone, he would never bring Kazain out again.

Just as Casio tried to distract himself with the familiar stone forest around him, he faintly heard something strange in his ears.

"Shut up, there seems to be a situation ahead. Casio didn't have to say anything, and responded directly to Kazain in his mind.

Kazain was at least sensible in this regard, and did not continue to chatter, and immediately stopped talking.

The movement in front of him was getting louder and louder, and Casio didn't even need to pay close attention to feel that someone was running towards him in front of him.

The hand slowly rested on the hilt of the sword, and outside of the city of Gregea, it was not a safe place. Along the way, Casio has encountered at least five attacks, either light or covert.

Just as Casio put his hand on the hilt of his sword, he saw a figure jump out from behind a stalagmite in front of him.

On closer inspection, it was a man dressed in full-length black armor, carrying a handsome little boy with red hair about ten years old.

The black-armored knight moved in a panic, and the pale face of the little boy on his back was panicked, and it was obvious that he was running away from something.

Casio's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw these two people, because he could already tell from the badge on the shoulder of the black-armored knight that the other party was the regular army of Eagle's Nest.

And that little boy, gorgeously dressed, was obviously not an ordinary person.

Casio originally wanted to rescue them, but after learning the identities of these two people, he hesitated a little.

God knows if this kind of character is being hunted down and killed, whether it is a power struggle within Eagle's Nest City. I was about to go to Eagle's Nest City to find someone, and if I was involved in some power struggle because of my rash rescue, it would really be an incomparable toothache.

Just when Casio was a little hesitant, the black-armored knight obviously saw Casio as well. As soon as he saw Casio's obvious adventurer outfit, the black-armored knight suddenly saw hope.

"Please help us, I'm carrying the young son of the Lord of Eagle's Nest on my back. As long as you help us, you will be rewarded richly. ”

Hearing the other party's words, Casio didn't want to help even more.

The black-armored knight shouted as he ran at full speed toward Casio.

Casio was reluctant to help, but instead sat quietly on top of his horse.

It was at this time that four figures shrouded in black robes appeared behind the stalagmites again, holding bloodstained long swords in their hands, obviously the pursuers had arrived.

When the group of people saw Casio, they were obviously stunned, they didn't expect that there were still people in this place far away from the main road.

Therefore, the leader made a decision immediately, turned to the side of his body, and the long sword in his hand turned to his back, and then the whole body returned to normal again, and the arm holding the sword threw it towards the black-armored knight in front of him.

In an instant, I saw that the long sword in the opponent's hand was driven by his body, and almost all the strength was poured into the long sword, and the long sword turned into a bright white light, flying towards the little boy on the back of the black-armored knight.

The other party's seemingly ordinary action of throwing a long sword made Casio's pupils shrink instantly, and his eyebrows tightened.

"Get down!"

As Casio yelled, he drew his sword from his horse, and with a leap, he quickly swept in the direction of the black-armored knight.

The black-armored knight didn't know what was happening behind him, but he obviously also heard the sound of the long sword cutting through the air behind his back, coupled with Casio's reminder, he didn't think about it at the moment, so he rolled to the ground, and his reaction was extremely alert.

"Hum ~ " The long sword flew almost above the little boy's head, bringing up a few strands of red hair.

Looking at the trembling long sword stuck in the dirt, the black-armored knight felt a chill in his heart and secretly exclaimed luck.

At this time, Casio had already crossed the black-armored knight and came to the middle of the two groups of people, looking at the four people opposite with a solemn face.

Casio suddenly spoke up, not only because of his conscience, but also because he saw the reason for the other party's move.

The seemingly ordinary throwing action of the other party just now was actually used with a special arc-shaped sword. This move can be used by a skilled person to return the specially curved sword to the hand again.

And this move is the relatively clever return sword in the military swordsmanship of the Voltis Imperial Army!

Casio quickly pondered why there were people from the Waltis Empire around the Eagle's Nest City, which was relatively inward, and they were assassinating the son of the Lord of the Eagle's Nest City.

How many of them came, and what was the purpose of coming here?

Casio suddenly felt that he had finally gone out, and the person he was looking for had not yet been found, so he ran into this trouble, and he didn't know which way he had offended.
