Chapter 41: Provocations from Competitors
When Char came to the city wall, he had already seen a large number of undead and demonic beasts appear in the depths of the canyon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info They screamed, biting at each other as they rushed towards here.
Stimulated by the rich vitality, the bloodthirsty undead surrounded and tore a demonic beast around him to pieces, and the demonic beast was also stimulated by hunger, and it bit the undead hungrily.
"How can there be so many, this is troublesome. ”
"The walls won't be breached. A new mercenary said in fear, and even the veteran adventurers and mercenaries who had experienced many undead hunts showed worry on their faces.
For no other reason, most of the mercenaries and adventurers are scattered, they need an organizer, they don't need how efficient and correct the instructions are, but at least let everyone have a general direction.
If there are too many people, there will be chaos, so whether they want to or not, they need a center that maintains some conventional rules.
And this role that was not liked before, but was needed, was naturally maintained by the lord of Yorktown, the people of the Mandala family. But almost half a month ago, this character was killed by them together.
And the disorganized and undisciplined chaos of this half month has really made many mercenary adventurers complain.
And came to the city wall, watching all this, Char suddenly coughed, and then looked at Nock.
Nock nodded knowingly, and then shouted, "Don't panic, everyone, Lord Char has been authorized by Lord Lord, and Miss Christie has come with guards to support. ”
"My lord, the people of the Mandala family are here, are they here to find our stubble?" Some people took a few steps back with a weak heart, and their hands were already unconsciously on the hilt of their swords. These are the people who attacked the Mandala family that day, and when they saw that the Mandala family had not only not declined, but had regrouped so quickly, they were afraid of being liquidated.
"Char-sama, Miss Christie!" and some of the clever guys focused on these two names, especially when they saw that there was not even a single descendant of the Mandala family in this ranks, which made them think of something.
In any case, the scene was a little awkward at this time, and most of the mercenaries and adventurers had already set their eyes on Char and the others. And what broke this situation was a voice that Char was very familiar with.
"It turned out to be someone sent by the lord, so the Flame Mercenary Regiment naturally obeyed the command. Horn shouted with dozens of mercenaries under his command.
Char and Horn looked at each other, and both of them smiled intently.
I saw Char stand up at this time, and his eyes swept over everyone. In addition to Horn, Pierre and Hook, the leader of the Tiger Mercenary Regiment, are all familiar faces.
"There were some misunderstandings before, so everyone had some misunderstandings, but the past is in the past, and the new lord Lord Deman no longer wants to pursue this. After all, such a big thing as the hunt of the undead is ahead, and I hope everyone can focus on the overall situation. Char said and looked at the city wall again, those demonic beasts and undead were about to reach the city wall.
"That's all for the kind words, although I have the permission of the lord, I can't command you. But I will stand here with my guards, and do my best not to let these undead and demonic beasts go beyond the walls even a single step. ”
As soon as Char's words fell, Nok, who had already received Char's hints, immediately shouted at the guards behind him.
"The guards are in position, the archers are free to fire, the mages prioritize the undead that are difficult to kill, and the warriors wander to protect the mages and archers from the filth that climbs the walls. ”
As the former head of the guard of the Mandala family, Nock is very good in terms of reputation and strength. And most of the guards recruited by Char were originally the guards who had defected before, and after this week's run-in training, they already looked good.
Ignoring the gaze of the others, they had already taken up an area on the city wall and began to kill the monsters and the undead on their own.
"Brothers, what are you still doing in a daze, the lord has spoken, and he still doesn't go to work. Horn deliberately shouted at the mercenaries of the Flame Mercenary Regiment.
And seeing that the Flame Mercenary Group had moved, the mercenaries who were still standing in place glanced at each other, and they also formed a small group of three or five to start hunting the undead and demonic beasts.
Last time, the Flame Mercenary Group was the mastermind, and he took the lead in supporting the new lord, so what are they worried about.
"Brothers of the Tiger Mercenary Regiment, it's time to get to work. A bald man said to the man behind him. Defending against the undead and demonic beasts, there is a nominal core is a good thing, anyway, you won't suffer, there is no need to resist.
"Young Master, we ・・・・・. On the other side of the wall, the old man Kurt was asking the blond young man for instructions.
"Let them do what they have to do. Pierre waved his hand, and Kurt, who had been given the order, began to organize the warriors and mages sent from Dawn.
At this time, Pierre took White and walked towards Char step by step.
"Miss Christie, it's been a long time, why are you still with this pariah. Pierre ignored Char and accosted Jean first.
"Hmph, I'm not with the people who saved me, do I still stand with the people who want to harm me?" Xiaoqin said in disgust.
"I think Miss Christie, you have misunderstood something, what I want to say is that if it weren't for your willfulness, not letting this guard behind me protect you, but living in the Mandala family by yourself, there wouldn't have been so many things after that. After all, this is the guard that your father, Viscount Rose, has prepared for you. ”
"You ・・・・・. Xiaoqin glared at Pierre, this guy is a provocation at all, on the surface, this guard from Dawn City is to protect it, but it is simply his Pierre's minions, she is not a fool, how can she not hide far away.
"Char, although it is a bit inappropriate to say this, please note that as a pariah, it is better for you to stay away from Miss Christie. Seeing Xiaoqin's angry cousin, Pierre stopped and pointed the finger at Char.
[Xiaoqin, calm down. 】
Char secretly held Xiaoqin's hand, and said in Xiaoqin's mind with a spiritual connection.
[But this guy ・・・・・. 】
[Xiaoqin, do the nobles like to take advantage of their mouths so much?] Char said with a strange face, Char noticed it when he was in the Mandala family before, and it was obviously not suitable to do it at that time, so he had to come up and say two cruel words.
[Pretty much.] Although she didn't know why Char suddenly asked this, Xiaoqin still replied subconsciously. The aristocracy paid attention to literacy and etiquette, and paid attention to fame.
In the gathering of nobles, even if they grit their teeth with hatred for that person, they will never do it, because it will only be ridiculed as the behavior of a barbarian. It is the practice of the nobility to make that person lose face in front of others and not be able to hold his head up in front of other nobles.
And this is what Xiaoqin hates the most, this kind of hypocritical etiquette makes her feel disgusting.
"Untouchables, don't think that you have forgotten your identity with a few people in your hands. Pierre sneered and deliberately amplified his voice so that everyone around him could hear it.
And now the situation is quite relaxed, and those who noticed this scene also looked at it curiously and whispered.
"Alas, after listening to your words, I really feel a little sorry for Xiaoqin. Char didn't get angry, but sighed and showed a look of shame.
"In fact, without Xiaoqin's support, I would not be where I am today, I know that I am just a civilian. I don't deserve Xiaoqin, I just want to protect her silently, but I didn't expect Xiaoqin to care about my identity and take the initiative to ask to be with me, but I can't hide it, Xiaoqin and I are already engaged. ”
Char looked at Xiaoqin with a look of shame and gratitude.
