At noon, Kenny was the first to come out of the stone house, he rubbed the back of his head and pushed open the door of the stone house, the soldiers not far away seemed to have eaten lunch, and began to enter the afternoon work again, Kenny suddenly felt a little sorry for the soldiers brought out by Lawrence, they left their hometown and followed the two to the New World, and they have been working hard, and no one has raised any objections.
On the steps of another stone house not far away, the boy he rescued yesterday was squatting on the ground wrapped in a futon, Kenny walked over curiously, and the boy stood up when he heard the sound, his eyes stayed on the chest of the life-saver in front of him, and he never dared to raise his head.
"Why don't you get up so early?" Kenny asked, looking at the boy in front of him.
"My lord, I can't sleep in the house, did I disturb you?"
As he spoke, the boy put down the mattress in his hand, raised his right hand and placed it on his chest, his gaze fell from Kenny's jaw to his toes, and gave Kenny a standard salute very respectfully, and it was clear that he should have been trained as a professional servant.
"What's your name?"
"My name, my name is Linde. The boy's voice was barely audible, and he cautiously raised his head to glance at Kenny, then immediately lowered his head like a thief who had just been caught.
"What did you just say? Your name is Linde?!" Allen's stone house was next to the boy's, and he ran from the house to Kenny with a smirk.
"Look at me, and say it again, what's your name?" asked Allen as he ran over and looked at the boy with a blank face.
"My name, my name is Linde. The boy's voice was a little higher.
"What's the matter, you know this kid?" Kenny stood up and stared at Allen, who looked a little strange.
"No, I don't know, it's just his name....." Allen's expression was a little unnatural, as if he was trying his best to hide something.
"Really?" Kenny looked at Alan with some hesitation.
"How old are you, do you have any other relatives around?" Kenny reached out and touched the boy's head.
"My lord, I just turned fifteen this year, my father joined Lord Barton's Horn Legion three years ago, and has not been back since, my mother... I passed away when I was very young. The boy put his hands behind his back and stood straight with his head down, but his body was shivering from the cold of the moon.
"Linde, don't lie in front of me, it's not good. Alan listened to the boy and reached out to pull the boy's wide collar.
Kenny saw a red flame mark on the back of Linde's neck, the fire was lifelike on his skin, and the mark was less like the mark of a cruel soldering iron, more like a masterpiece painted with a pen by a skilled painter.
Linde was frightened by Allen's sudden movements, he subconsciously pushed Allen's hand away, tightly covered the back of his neck, and wanted to take a few steps back but tripped over the steps of the stone house, and sat on the ground and looked at Allen in horror.
"Who the hell is this little guy?" Kenny asked, looking at Alan beside him.
"I don't know, but he should have something to do with the Flame Legion in your city, and this little guy might be able to help us in the future, but maybe he can't do it. Alan looked at Linde who was sitting on the ground, and there was a little joy in his eyes, but he tried his best to hide the little joy that he didn't know.
Kenny suddenly senses something behind him, and he looks back to see Mio spreading his wings and looking up and yawning.
"Did you fly here, why didn't you make any sound?" Kenny complained to Mio.
"Sorry, I just watched you chatting and didn't want to disturb you. Mio pursed his lips from the yawn.
"Birdman, are you supposed to tell me where this Destiny card came from?" Alan took the black, gold-rimmed card from his bearskin jacket pocket and shook it in front of Mio's eyes.
"Uh... Picked up on the ground. β
"I'll give you another chance. Allen's eyes became serious, and it was clear that he was very unhappy with Mio's perfunctory.
"Uh... Stealing. β
"Soldier, blast this birdman out of here!" Alan turned his face to the soldier standing guard in front of the stone house.
"Don't! Don't, I really stole it!" Mio looked at the subtle change in the expression on Alan's face, and thought to himself that this guy was really hard to mess with.
"Stop lying with all your mouths, Uruk City is thousands of miles away, and this card is heavily guarded in the Temple of Nanna, how can you steal it with a birdman?" Alan looked at the lying wingman in front of him with suspicion.
"It was true that the Mandate of Heaven was in Uruk City before, but Lord Gil had already returned the treasure to our clan twenty years ago. Mio put away his joking face and said uncharacteristically seriously.
"Return, isn't this Mandate of Heaven a treasure that belongs to the Temple of Nanna?"
"Of course not, this Mandate of Heaven card is the treasure of our tribe's ancestor Anzu, thirty years ago, my father handed over the Mandate of Heaven card to Rose, the then lord of Uruk City, Rose used the Mandate of Heaven card to know that his grandson would usurp the lordship, under the conspiration of his wife, Rose in order to prevent it from happening, locked his only daughter on the top of the tower of the god tower in Uruk City, but ten months later his daughter was pregnant without a husband at the top of the tower, gave birth to a baby boy, the guards of the tower were afraid that Rose would know about it, blame their own guards, so the baby boy was thrown out of the towerγ At this moment, an eagle flew outside the tower and took the baby boy and brought it to a farmer for adoption. Thirty years later, the baby boy has taken the throne of Lord Rus, and this baby boy is the current lord of Uruk City, the leader of the Flame Legion, Jill. Mio earnestly recounted the past of Uruk.
"It sounds like it's true, your brain can't make up such a seamless story, come, tell me, how to use this thing?" asked Allen, shaking the Manifest Destiny in his hand.
"Put your hands together in the center of your eyebrows, put the Mandate of Heaven card in the heart of your palms, and you can see some fun things. β
Alan listened to Mio's teachings and tilted his head to look at Kenny, "Why don't you try it first?"
Kenny hesitated for two seconds, reached out and took the Destiny card from Alan, and uncharacteristically started to be a guinea pig. In the past, when he was in Karta City, every year when the new wine was brewed Lawrence would come to help Kenny taste it, and the honest guy often choked on the strong vinegar smell and waved his hand, and now that the former brother beast has become a white wolf, Kenny can't wait to know if he can be saved.
According to Mio's teachings, Kenny pressed the Mandate of Heaven card with both palms to the center of his eyebrows, and suddenly felt a stream of heat rush into his palm prints, and those gilded python patterns seemed to be alive, turning into waves of heat and attacking the veins of his body.
