As the fire warms the cramped hut, Kenny sits opposite Kane Irene, who calls himself Lord of your, outside whom the Confederates are encamped, with the sound of hammers hitting planks, chopping wood, and the neighing of their prey before they die. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When Kane gulps barley wine from a moldy wooden cup and tells him why he has fallen to this point, Kenny realizes that the young man in front of him has a strikingly similar experience: his father is dead, his wife is arrested, and he is defeated and absconding. The only difference was that he had lost a continent because of his arrogance, and this young man had been driven out of the capital by his own servants.

“..... So, I'll get out of here!" Kane shrugged as he took a large sip of ale, "but fortunately, I can still walk on my feet and draw a sword in my hands." Kenny, take a good look, it won't be long before I'll be able to go back and kill that weird old thing! By then, your wife, my wife, and of course my city of your, will all be back! Don't worry, man, it won't be long!"

Kenny twists his beard. For some reason, the young man on the other side of the fire, although his face was covered in blood and he looked embarrassed, but he always exuded a sense of confidence, and seemed to be optimistic about everything, and this emotion seemed to have taken root in his blood, sprouted, and was happy to speak. So, he raised his glass and saluted Kane across from him, and the two of them took a big sip.

"I'm done, man. Kane wiped his mouth with his sleeve, "Why did you go to the eastern border of Assyria after the water washed away in Nippur? Well..... Although the scenery of Mochizuki Lake is not bad, but behind the mountain is the frozen frozen soil, and there are still a group of aborigines living in that ghost place, shouting every day that they want to unify Sumer!"

"The future Lord of your," Camille's voice suddenly came from outside the house. The imp was now wiping the horse's back with a brush with Kane's own soldiers, oiling the lord's armor. "The Iceplains never wanted to dominate Sumer, please don't spread rumors everywhere!"

"Oh, I hear you! Imp, keep your wolf away from us! Hurry up, it's, it's on its feet!" Kane shouted as he looked at the white wolf standing up in the doorway.

Camille whistled, and Xun Li immediately turned around and slipped out. "Kane," Kenny's gaze looked at the young man through the flickering flames, "If it weren't for me, where were you going next?" he put down his cup and continued as he pulled out his dagger and tried the rabbit meat on the grill, "Listening to the tone of your voice, you seem to be confident in retaking the territory, don't tell me, just those two hundred cavalry." ”

"And a lot of the city's citizens along the way!" Kane quickly told him, "The Flame Legion is no longer the army of the gods, those guys are burning and looting all the way, if this continues, your will go back a thousand years ago." He smiled self-deprecatingly, "Although the economy is similar now as it was a thousand years ago, hey, damn it!"

That's why I'm willing to sit with you, Kane..... Kenny looked up at him. Half an hour ago, Kenny sat in the saddle and watched the strange cavalry gradually surround him, but he never saw them attack. Kane Irene, who calls himself Lord of your, just mocks and talks nonsense, and when Kenny finally can't hold back and pulls out his Ebony sword, Camille whispers in his ear, "Lord, a group of refugees to the north are evacuating along the west bank of the lake, and the wolves have stopped them....."

As Kenny swung his sword and pointed north, Kane Irene immediately dismounted, and two hundred knights dismounted. Immediately after, long swords, iron spears, daggers, short knives, and shields clanged and threw to the ground.

Kenny rode his horse and galloped to see chaos on the west shore of the lake. A dozen naked boys began to run at the sight of him, and the men in the group gradually gathered to the rear of the line, holding pitchforks, hoes, sickles, and everything that could be used as weapons, and the torches raised the fear in their eyes.

Camille whistled to disperse the wolves, and the woman with the child began to run as hard as she could. Countless people were pushed and picked up again with their children in their arms, and some even jumped into the icy lake water, never to be seen again.

..... If you are swept away by an army, only a fool will collect a bunch of useless mouths. Kenny couldn't help but wonder. But he admits that he is a fool, and to tell the truth, it is precisely because of Kane's interest that he will sit in the same hut with him, drink a glass of wine, and eat a hare with him.

Kane coughed. "Ruth!" he cried out, turning his head, "close the door, it's too windy!"

After the soldier closed the door, Kane's face sank. "Kenny," his voice swept away the cheerfulness of the damp wood crackling as it crackled, "to tell you the truth, my destination was the north, but the Flame Legion has been chasing after me, and the landscape to the north is almost entirely plains. You know, I can't take that many people with me....."

"Where are you going?" Kenny interrupted him directly.

"Sunshine City," said Kane, "my father told me before he died that he would be able to sit on the throne of Lord Jefferson thanks to Lord Jefferson, and that although the old man is now out of office, his bloodline is still going on, and if I can reach Sunshine City safely, it will only be a matter of time before I can reclaim your." ”

"You're asking me to make sure you go to Sunlight City?" Kenny asked.

"We have the same purpose, man. Kane resumed his cheerful tone, "You only have a thousand soldiers with you, and even though they look like battle-hardened veterans, what's the use?" he picked up the flask beside him, and poured wine into the moldy wooden cup, as he said, "A whole ten thousand black-armored soldiers, less than two thousand escaped with me on the night of defending the city, and now?" He took a sip of wine and wiped his mouth with his sleeve nonchalantly, "You saw it all, didn't you?"

Kenny looked at his bloodstained face, the bright red spots brightened by the firelight, and almost nothing from his worn-out boots to breeches and topcoat was spared. "How long does it take to get from here to Sunshine City?" he asked.

"Not much, starry night, half a month at most!" Kane said excitedly, putting down his glass, "I can leave the people behind, this is close to the Assyrian border, and before that, my men killed almost all the enemy scouts, and now that we go north, the Flame Legion will no longer harass this village!" Before Kenny could open his mouth, he turned around and rushed towards the broken wooden door, his voice like a long whip breaking through the air, "Ruth! damn it! Are you still outside?!

A hairy boy ran and sent a map, and when he went out, he didn't forget to cover the wooden door. "Man, look. Kane spread out the parchment map around the fire, holding the corners against the flask with the flask and the moldy wooden cup, "We're here now, the lake you just saw is called Pearl Lake, let's go north along the west shore, then turn into the Strange Jungle, then the Silk Valley, and then the Quiles Plains, which leads to the Sunshine City....."
