A black steed galloped down the avenue, with a man in an overcoat on his back. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Suddenly, the man felt a chill on his face, slowly raised his head, and saw countless small snowflakes falling from the sky.

Before you know it, it's winter again.

If you calculate the time, this snowflake came a lot earlier than last year.

Taking off your coat and hat and feeling the snowflakes falling on your face is a different kind of comfort.

Recently, my mood has been more restless, but I have calmed down a little because of the coolness.

But the dark horse under him didn't think so, it ran faster, and wanted to get to the stable in Reims City as soon as possible.

Because it's afraid of the cold!

......

Reims City, the dark horse slowly walked into the city.

Wood looked around him as if he were looking at the scenery, and his mood became better and better.

Completely different from Kiel, every house, every brick, and even the flowing air in this city has a quaint atmosphere.

The people on the road look no different from other cities, whether they are adventurers in a hurry, or traders who are constantly shouting, all fighting for survival.

But he still felt that these people had the same sense of stale as the city.

Perhaps, this is the so-called heritage.

The influence of the 10,000-year-old ancient city on people has not been wiped out by disasters, but is full of greatness because it has witnessed too much history.

Wood felt that the word great was not used in the city.

The moment he saw all this, he understood two things.

The first is that Charlotte, who can be recognized by this city, is stronger than she thinks.

The second is to go from a butcher spurned by thousands of people to a supernova that the whole world hopes for, and Charlotte will not put in less effort than anyone else.

Now he has more respect for Charlotte than he did in Kiel City.

The royal palace in the center of the city has long been abandoned, and is now just a symbol of the city, or a tourist attraction, if anyone really has the leisure to do so.

There is a mansion next to it, built after the catastrophe, when Estol was in his prime, and later the Lance family went through several twists and turns, selling this mansion countless times, and buying it back for dignity countless times.

For example, a few years ago, Charlotte repurchased the mansion, and everyone knew that she didn't like the house, but she bought it anyway.

To insult the surname Lance, or for something else, no one knows what she was thinking.

The black steed slowly approached the door of Lance's house, the outermost iron door was locked, but there was no guard, and Charlotte seemed to be completely unafraid of an assassin coming to her trouble.

There are so many people who hate her, and her heart is still so big.

I knocked on the iron door, and no one came after waiting for a long time, perhaps because of the snowy weather, I didn't expect any guests to come.

But Wood immediately dismissed his idea, others could, but this woman wouldn't.

"Blackie, wait here. "The name "Little Black" was what Wood came up with after seeing the masked Little White.

The dark horse nodded spiritually, it was also a little unhappy, we came over the mountains and rivers, what do you mean that you don't open the door?

The snowflakes drifted onto the horse's back, which only aroused the horse's anger, and it was now really cold, hungry and angry!

Wood almost laughed, this little black has been with him for so long, he has a temper, he likes it.

Then he looked at the empty iron gate, thinking that he was going to surprise Charlotte this time, after all, the last time she came to find him was very sudden.

Wood easily climbed over the high wall and landed in the courtyard.

The courtyard is large and the furnishings are simple, but it still gives a very comfortable feeling.

Open your eyes to explore the distribution of people in the house, there are not many people, there are only more than 20 people in such a large mansion, and I can't find out where Charlotte is.

The corners of Wood's mouth turned up slightly, and his intuition told him that this woman was definitely at home, but she was avoiding him.

Although he didn't know what Charlotte was going to do, he still chose to accompany him.

I opened a window that wasn't closed and jumped into the kitchen, where the door was turned slightly.

Wood had expected it before he entered, leaning directly against the wall next to the door, and the open door was just obscuring him.

In came a little black-haired maid, who looked a little frightened when she saw the open window, as if others would find out that she had done something negligent again.

Xiao Ma Hu immediately stepped forward to close the window, and after repeatedly confirming that there was no problem, he walked out of the kitchen and closed the door.

After confirming behind the door that the maid was far away and that there was no one outside, Wood quickly opened the door and entered the hall.

Having seen people coming from the front and to the side, Wood quickly ducked under the long table in the center of the hall and surveyed the surroundings through the gaps in the tablecloth.

A blonde little Shota walked upstairs with a book in his hand and a little confused.

A strong man came from the side, looking like he was supposed to be a guard, and walked to the other side, with a tired look in his eyes, thinking that he should have gone to rest.

After confirming that no one was there, Wood quietly went to the second floor of the mansion, where Charlotte's room should be.

I confirmed on the left.,It's a study.,Blonde Shota is in it and I don't know what I'm doing.。

On the right is a large room, and Wood turns the doorknob directly after confirming that no one is there.

The door was not locked, and Wood entered the room with ease, when suddenly a note fell from the sky, and it seemed that Charlotte had already calculated that he would come to this room.

took the note, and when he saw the content on it, he was slightly stunned at first, and then smiled even more.

"Guess which of the three people just now is me?

Wood smiled and put away the note, then sat down unceremoniously on Charlotte's couch and poured himself a glass of water.

Looking at the still steaming tea, he fell into deep thought.

The black-haired little maid, the blonde little Shota, and the strong man guard.

After a long time, he finally laughed again, drank the tea that had cooled, and pushed the door open.

Charlotte, Charlotte, you made a fatal mistake.

The blonde Shota walked out of the study a little tired, but Wood came downstairs because it wasn't Charlotte.

Wood re-entered the hall, with the sleeping guard on his left and the maid on his right, who had returned to work in the kitchen.

With a smile on his feet, he also took out his black rifle.

Opening the door, he walked around behind a man and pointed his gun at the delicate minibus.

"Do you like this gun?" said Wood, looking at his short black hair.

The maid began to tremble a little, as if she was very frightened, and she could not speak.

"Your Highness, the little one came to deliver the gun on a snowy day, if you don't move, forget it, and let me eat a closed door, I'm very uncomfortable now. ”

The maid finally stopped trembling, and then smiled and looked back at Wood.

"How did you find out? I feel like a good maid. ”

Wood smiled and withdrew the gun, then raised a finger.

"You did it perfectly, I almost went to find the more likely Shota or the guard, but there was one thing you missed. ”

deliberately didn't say it, and the words "You beg me to say it" were almost written on his smile.

But what he never expected was that this cute-looking little maid actually grabbed his arm, and then kept shaking and began to spoil him.

"Brother robber, say it quickly, people want to know~" As he spoke, he stomped his feet and pouted as he pouted, looking like he didn't know how pitiful it was.

The voice was so sweet and so sweet that Wood almost overturned his previous thoughts.

That Highness Charlotte couldn't be coquettish!

Wood restrained himself and rested his hand on the maid's shoulder: "Your Highness, you will make me very uncomfortable like this. ”

The maid's expression suddenly became very serious, and her tone became cold: "Then say it quickly." ”

Wood took a deep breath, he couldn't keep up with Charlotte's face change, women were really monsters.

He pointed to the lace girdle around the maid's neck, and then carefully removed it.

"Generally, if you wear a simple maid outfit, you will only tie a bow with a ribbon at the neckline, which looks very simple and elegant, and will not use this kind of lace neckband. ”

The maid was slightly stunned, she didn't have much understanding of the maid, but what was the situation of this man, he seemed to understand very well.

"You know a lot about maids. ”

Wood took this as a compliment, and said with some embarrassment: "It's okay, it's just that I have dozens of maids at home, and I don't know how many kinds of maid costumes, some are traditional and some are ...... Uh, not so traditional. ”

As he spoke, he raised the lace neckband: "This kind of lace maid costume is also available, I think it's cute, if you like it, I'll bring a few sets next time." ”

The maid unconsciously distanced herself between the two while Wood was talking, and by the way, she looked at Wood with the eyes of garbage.

Wood's head hurt, and he knew what the maid was trying to say.

For example: Someone! There's a pervert here!

"Actually, I'm not a pervert, I started buying traditional styles, but those young girls always make some mess. For example, making your own maid outfit. ”

The maid's expression became more and more frightened, and she had already grabbed the kitchen knife in her hand, looking like she would fight to the death if you were a pervert.

This woman's acting skills are really strong, and Wood almost feels that he is really a pervert.

"Your Highness, can we stop playing? My little black is still freezing outside. He took a step forward.

The maid reacted instantly, like a frightened rabbit, and found that there was already a cupboard behind her, and she had no way to retreat, so she could only sit on the cooking table, and the kitchen knife held in front of her was still trembling.

"Brother, let me go, I still want to ......" said and said that a few tears really came out of the corners of his eyes.

Wood felt insulted, he was so angry that a good man like him was called a pervert!

He took a few more steps forward and licked his lips, smiling evilly by the way.

In terms of acting skills, he is also considered top-notch.

The maid looked panicked and stood up and opened the window to escape, but at this moment, a cold wind blew and blew the long skirt up.

Wood froze suddenly, and he saw something.

I didn't expect ...... It's actually white......

The maid's face was crimson, and she didn't know how much of it was pretended, and tears fell.

"Uh......h I...... I ......" I couldn't say a word for a long time, and then gritted my teeth, as if I had made up my mind.

"Someone!

......

Blackie was "invited" to the stable of the Lance family, and he felt very happy now, and the anger he had just had disappeared for a long time.

Because this stable is so luxurious, it is simply a palace among horses, and the grass is so fresh, Xiao Hei is a little overwhelmed.

It didn't want to go back a little, and then looked at the cold white horse next to it.

Would you like to spend the night here?

In the living room, a somewhat mentally tired Wood was drinking tea, and he needed to calm down.

Then, Charlotte walked in with a coat on, and by this time had taken off her disguise and changed back to her old self.

"Is it fun, Your Highness?" Wood looked at Charlotte lightly.

Charlotte began to pout again: "Brother......"

"Stop, let me go!" Wood propped his head, looking uncomfortable.

Charlotte chuckled a few times, which she thought was funny, and sat down on the couch.

"One by one?" Wood tried to get the conversation on track.

Charlotte nodded, and then began to drink tea as well.

Wood smiled and took out his rifle and placed it on the table, "I hope you'll like it." ”

Charlotte picked up the gun, looked at it repeatedly, kissed the rifle with great satisfaction, and continued: "Yes, perfect appearance." Thank you!"

"Little thing, I've also escalated because of this. Give it a name. "Wood knew that Charlotte liked it, and he was very relieved, and he was tired and tired in vain.

After such a fuss in the afternoon, the two of them became more and more like friends.

Charlotte thought about it for a long time, she had never given a name to the equipment.

"How's the Black Rose?"

Wood held his head again, and he felt uncomfortable again: "This name is too simple. ”

Then he thought about it and said, "Crow Feather?"

Charlotte thought the name was good, nodded, and then awakened the soul and began to bind.

Countless magical elements began to surround the rifle, and finally turned black into a light that surged, and Wood felt a terrifying aura.

This weapon already belongs only to Charlotte, and no one can pull this trigger except her.

"After a period of time, the expedition is a little more certain. Charlotte felt the heartbeat of the rifle, it was very powerful, and it had a crazy feeling.

Well, she loves this kind of grumpy guy.

"Expedition, Phase 4?" Wood was a little surprised, he didn't hear the wind at all.

News of the fourth phase of other team expeditions may not be taken seriously, but Estoe's Adventure Party is different, and any news will be different because of the name.

Charlotte put away the crow feathers, and her face was a little heavy: "Yes, I originally wanted to wait another year, but something changed. ”

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and Wood's face was a little ugly.

"I got a message, but I don't know if it's true. ”

He swallowed, and continued, "Hedick told me that in the near future, we humans will experience another catastrophe. ”

"Boom!" Charlotte put down her teacup a little harder.

"Did Herdick really say that?" she looked very serious and a little nervous.

"Really. "It's the first time Wood has seen this woman nervous, uh...... The maid just played doesn't count!

Charlotte lowered her head, as if thinking about something, and then stood up.

"You know I'm a soothsayer, and I'm pretty accurate. As he spoke, he took out a crystal ball.

Then, the crystal ball began to float in the air, and several images appeared.

The goblin grabbed the fleeing human and swung his machete. Several terrifying demons are hunting adventurers and eating human flesh. The city of Reims is being burned by flames......

Wood looked at one shocking picture after another, in addition to shock, anger and all kinds of mixed emotions in his heart.

"This time, we don't have Saint Lets and so many Glory fighters. Charlotte said something horrible.

Wood closed his eyes: "How much longer?"

"More than two years, when the next dungeon counterattack. Charlotte retrieved the crystal ball and sat down on the couch.

Wood was almost unable to sit still: "Did you spread the news?"

Charlotte shook her head: "No, in fact, I also thought about whether it was possible that the divination was wrong, but the news you brought made me more convinced of this matter." ”

The atmosphere grew stiffer, and Wood lowered his head as he pondered how to tell his companions the news.

"Pass the third stage in two years, so that you can barely save yourself in the next catastrophe. Charlotte rubbed her head, she lost her afternoon playfulness and became a headache.

After a while, each made a decision in their hearts, and then they all revealed the topic in silence.

"I have one more thing to hide, I hope you don't have anything to hide. Wood's voice was serious.

He looked at Charlotte and said, "What do you know about the memory I lost?"

Charlotte wanted to laugh, but couldn't: "I know a lot, but I will definitely affect you if I say it, and after the disaster is over in two years, I will say everything I know." ”

The look in his eyes was very sincere: "Trust me." ”

Wood thought in silence for a moment, looked into Charlotte's eyes, and finally chose to believe.

"Thank you. This was the second time Charlotte thanked him, and then took out a clear bead and handed it to Wood.

Wood knew it was the soul of the weapon, and took it and checked the stats.

High Soul (Assassin), Status: Unconscious, Cultivable.

"It's a thank you. Charlotte finally smiled again.

"Thank you. "This time it was Wood who said it, and he knew that this soul was a perfect fit for him and could make a dagger of the Brilliant Grade.

In this way, his combat power will be much stronger, and this thing is very valuable.

Wood: They worked hard to get one.

"Take a break from me today, the surprise of the game victory, I'll give you tomorrow. ”

Wood wanted to refuse, because he wanted to go back and tell his companion what he had just gotten.

"It's snowing heavily. Charlotte stood up, not giving Wood a chance to refuse.

The soundproofing array was removed, and then he shouted, "Ake, take the guests to rest." ”

Then the living room door opened, and the blonde Shota walked in, making a gesture of please to Wood.

Wood sighed, held the hot beads in his hand, and followed Shota out of the living room.

Charlotte sat back on the couch after the guests left, poured herself a glass of red wine, and looked out the window at the snowflakes and wondered what she was thinking......
