Chapter 247: Reckoning
This is Ellie's belief.
believed that as long as she encountered danger, Lin Bai would definitely come to his side like a hero, and whether he believed it or not, Lin Bai had always done it, whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate matter, in short, Lin Bai really did it.
At this critical juncture.
Lin Bai once again saved Ellie, who took the deadly arrow in his place, and took advantage of the opportunity to release an enhanced version of the flaming arrow against the robber who had fallen into extreme surprise.
- "Banish all the shadows and light the way!Moment of Glory!"

The arrow of flame pierced through the robber's chest, and it only took a second for Bolin to pull up his longbow to Lin Bai saving Ellie and offering him an arrow of flame.
It's so fast!
It was so fast that before he even reacted, his heart had been completely penetrated, and Lin Bai had once again become Ellie's hero, if one was a coincidence, two times was a coincidence, and three or four times was still a coincidence?
Ellie doesn't believe in such a coincidence!
Therefore, Lin Bai must be her destined guardian knight, and she must also be her true destiny, her future must have been tied to the hero in front of her, a hero who belongs to her alone.
The eyes are facing each other.
On this battlefield of wind and fire, Ellie kissed Lin Bai's lips, which was a kiss that couldn't help but mean that Ellie was 100% dependent on Lin Bai, and at the same time hoped that Lin Bai could protect her forever.
The warm touch is transmitted from the lips to the brain.
At this moment, the sequelae brought by Lin Bai's meditation were completely eliminated, and the warmth that flowed into his heart was enough to remember for a lifetime, and the passage of time would not make him forget this feeling.
Finally found the bond, and finally no longer alone.
Lin Bai, who is incompatible with the world, finally found the bond to integrate into this world at this moment, and at this moment he really had a great sense of belonging to this different world, which means that Lin Bai is really living in this world.
Does this make any sense?
Lin Bai's heart has always been extremely lonely, this world seems to be an illusory existence, there is no sense of belonging at all, and there is no concern at all, just like a kite with a broken string, it is absolutely incorrect!
Traditional magicians strive for the ultimate in magic.
Because you have a firm goal without worrying about getting lost in the meditation of eternal silence, when you are immersed in a goal, you can't feel the passage of time, but Lin Bai has no goal at all!
It's like a giant ship lost in the sea.
If he continued to force it to be obvious, he might not feel anything yet, but if the level was raised again, Lin Bai would completely lose himself and become a walking corpse with no goal.
It's all settled at this moment.
This kiss has been imprinted into Lin Bai's heart, and Lin Bai's current goal is to be with Ellie, which is the ultimate beacon that will not be lost even after thousands of meditations, and the bond between them has finally reached the point of being unbreakable.
"Thank you, my knight. β
With her lips parted, Ellie said with drunken eyes: "I know, I always know, you are my destined knight, this has been engraved into my soul!"
"Ellie, I like you!"
Lin Bai subconsciously said the words in his heart, his eyes were fixed on Ellie and said, "I really, really like you, please have a relationship with me!"
Dripping cold sweat slipped down his forehead, I don't know if it was because of the recurrence of the arrow wound or because he was too nervous, at this moment Lin Bai's eyes only had Ellie, and he quietly waited for Ellie's reply.
"If you want to pursue me, please become my knight-sama first!"
Ellie pouted and pretended to be arrogant and said, "When I return to the royal capital, if you can become my guardian knight, then I will promise you a chance to pursue me, so please work hard, my future knight." β
It's not a shy word.
But what she said after some consideration, originally according to Ellie's plan, she was going to confess to Lin Bai, but it had been determined that Lin Bai also liked her, of course, she needed to temporarily change her strategy, so that Lin Bai would become her guardian knight as the first goal.
If there is a first step, there will be a second step, and there will be a third step.
She will guide Lin Bai step by step to become her husband, she is far more long-term than Lin Bai thinks, after all, she knows what kind of responsibility she is carrying.
"I see!"
Lin Bai patted his chest, and then said loudly: "I will definitely become Ellie's guardian knight, and I will definitely let you agree to associate with me, this is my promise!"
It's still a worthless promise, but it's surprisingly reliable.
However, Shuai was only three seconds, just patted his chest slightly, and the sharp pain instantly reached his brain, and only then did he remember that he still had Boleyn's missing feather arrow nailed to his body.
"White, does it still hurt?"
Ellie looked at Lin Bai with concern, and when she touched the arrow wound on Lin Bai's shoulder, her heart ached, this was the injury that his hero suffered in order to save her, which made her tears of distress almost fall.
"No need to worry. β
Lin Bai confidently raised his staff and released a 'Light of Hope' to himself, and the wound that was still bleeding quickly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it returned to its original state almost instantly.
That's the power of magic!
This time it wasn't just Ellie who showed a surprised gaze, but Boleyn, who was full of jealousy in the distance, was also instantly stunned when he saw this scene, this situation was completely beyond his common sense, and he was healed in an instant after being so seriously injured?
He shot the arrow with his own hands!
His own family knows his own affairs, and no one knows his own situation better than himself, and he is naturally confident in the power of that arrow, and he can easily heal the arrow wound, which shows that Lin Bai is definitely not so simple.
At this time, if Lin Bai is regarded as an idiot, then he is a real idiot.
But thinking about it, Bolin remembered the kiss between Lin Bai and Ellie again, he was crazy with jealousy, obviously this glory belonged to him, but in the end, not only did he fail to save Ellie, but he made Lin Bai a fisherman, and the efforts of the previous few days were instantly in vain.
"It's unreasonable!"
Despite all the anger in his heart, Bolin didn't dare to jump out, because the arrow just now almost killed Ellie, and if it was investigated at this time, it would be terrifying just thinking about it.
So Bolin vented this fear on the robbers.
Due to the death of the only leader of the Golden Rank, the entire bandit team was leaderless, and it was only a few minutes before the regular army and Boleyn, the archer, were still the opponents of the regular army!
The flames are still burning.
Although they succeeded in sending the damned robbers to the cemetery, their camp was completely destroyed, and after counting, there were only about 60 people left in their group, which means that nearly half of them were killed and wounded!
This was a major misstep.
Half of the men and supplies were lost here, and the reason was only the negligence of the guards in charge of the night vigil, and it was self-evident who this negligent existence was.
"Lin Bai!"
Almost gritting his teeth, Bolin lifted Lin's collar and said, "If it weren't for your dereliction of duty, if it weren't for your blatant sleep while on duty, how could you have caused us to suffer such a great loss, and even let Her Highness Ellie encounter such a dangerous situation, Overseer, tell him what kind of unforgivable crime he has committed!"
"Yes!"
A man with a bloodstained face stood up, looked at Lin Bai with angry eyes and said, "According to Article 187 of the Imperial Military Law, those who neglect their duties should be beheaded according to the law!"
Qiang β
As the cold words spit out from the man's mouth, all the surviving people pulled out their swords and aimed them at Lin Bai against the backdrop of the firelight, with absolute anger in their eyes.
This is inevitable.
When it was found out that the incident was caused by Lin Bai, the soldiers who had lost their brothers and comrades-in-arms would of course hate Lin Bai, if it wasn't for Bolin not speaking, I was afraid that they would rush up and cut Lin Bai now.
"Lin Bai, what else do you have to say!"
Bolin's eyes were like iron, nailed to Lin Bai's body, but no one noticed that a smile had appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was a smile that would only appear when the mountains and rivers were exhausted.
Shot an arrow at Ellie, thinking that he would be the unlucky.
never thought that this incident was actually caused by Lin Bai's dereliction of duty, which undoubtedly attracted all the attention to Lin Bai, even Ellie didn't have time to pay attention to Bolin, but stood by Lin Bai's side with concern, and gave Lin Bai spiritual support with actions.
"I have nothing to say. β
Feeling the temperature of Ellie in his right hand, Lin Bai has never been the kind of person who dares to do something inappropriate, so he directly confessed: "I really have nothing to say about my dereliction of duty, but I want to ask Lord Bolin, are you sure that there is nothing wrong with my 12-hour duty schedule? It seems that the other soldiers change shifts in 4 hours, right?"
In order not to cause trouble to Ellie, Lin Bai keenly grasped this problem.
At this moment, his long weird duty schedule is equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death, after all, it was Bolin who looked for trouble first, so Bolin must also be responsible for this incident.
"You're right, that twelve-hour duty schedule is indeed deliberately asking you for trouble!"
Bolin knew that this kind of thing could not be avoided, and he also boldly admitted: "But that is definitely not the reason you use to evade responsibility, since you took over that duty schedule, if you don't really complete it, it means that you have violated military regulations, and there is no excuse in front of military regulations, give me an obedient confession!"
"Confession!" "Confession!" "Confession!"
With an order, embattled, Lin Bai fell into a considerable predicament, he didn't expect that Bolin would kill him even if he injured the enemy by a thousand and damaged himself by eight hundred.
