Sophia's words were hidden, Karpas couldn't help but choke, at this time he said that it was not appropriate to say anything, he couldn't just say that you people are suspicious, and you need to go back with me to be questioned by Lord Baron, that is likely to cause unnecessary conflicts, but you can't be too weak, it's better not to say anything, do nothing.

The atmosphere in the arena became a little awkward, and the knights under Karpas also vaguely realized from the leader's attitude that something was wrong, and they all began to be a little nervous.

It was not a solution to continue in such a stalemate, and after a while, Karpas said with some difficulty: "I hope that until this matter is thoroughly investigated, you will not leave the barony's confines." ”

As soon as these words came out, even Karpas himself was a little weak-hearted, he knew very well that if these people in front of him really wanted to leave, his side would not be able to stop him in any way, but where the duty was, Karpas had to do something, unless he was ready to face the wrath of the baron.

"There should be a time limit, right? how long, a day, or a year?" said Sophia, smirking.

As long as you are not a fool, you can hear the ridicule in Sophia's words, wait here for a year? Even if Sophia is willing to wait, will the Baron dare to keep them?

What made Karpas depressed was that he couldn't find the words to refute it, in fact, this is not the first time that similar incidents have happened, as the situation becomes tense, even the bandits have begun to be active, and there will be dozens of bloodshed in the territory every day, and I don't know where these bandits came from, staring at this territory like a swarm of flies, making the civilians in the barony's domain panic and dare not go out alone.

"I need to go back and ask Lord Baron for the specific time. It took Karpas a long time to come up with an answer that wasn't very embarrassing.

"One day. Sophia said softly, she decided not to embarrass the poor captain of the guard in front of her, and gave the other party a step, after all, this is not Chriss Plains, there is no need to clash with these regular troops over some trivial matter.

"What?" Karpas didn't understand what Sophia meant.

"You can go back and tell the Baron that we will stay here for a day, and as for whether this matter has anything to do with us, I believe the Baron will make the right judgment. ”

Karpas was overjoyed and gave a knightly salute on horseback: "I will convey your words to the Baron." ”

Karpas was even a little grateful to Sophia, because this not only allowed him to save face in front of his subordinates, but also went back to explain to the Baron.

Dio watched this scene from the side, and the feeling in his heart deepened, as a regular army, he whispered to a small caravan, in the final analysis, there is only one reason, that is, the difference in strength. If they are all ordinary people on their side, I believe that the whole situation will be reversed, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is unknown whether they can get out of the barony.

Having received a satisfactory answer, Karpas was about to leave with his knights, when Dio suddenly took out something and threw it over.

"Here's to you. ”

Karpas hurriedly reached out to catch it, looked at the two-headed snake emblem in his palm, and asked suspiciously, "Is this ......?"

"This is what we found in the village. Theo said.

Karpass's face changed, and he immediately put away the two-headed snake insignia, nodded to Dio again, and then galloped away with the knights.

"Dio, you guy...... It's too insidious!" Raymond exclaimed.

"Insidious, are you talking about me?" said Dio faintly.

"You knew that the badge might have been deliberately left by the murderers, and you gave them the badge?"

"The Barony sent his own guards out on patrol proves that he has no control over the situation. Dio smiled, turned to Sophia and said, "Sophia, did you really decide that we should stay here and wait?"

"There will be no problem. Sophia smiled, "Haven't you noticed, since we left the territory of Count Ryoeds, we have been traveling between the territories of various barons and viscounts, bypassing all the counties, and in this kind of place, there should be nothing to threaten us." ”

Sophia was right. Raymond said with a big grin: "A few of us plus Feders, it shouldn't be a problem to clean up a barony, right? That gang of murderers only dares to use this method to disturb the security of the territory, and it seems that the strength will not be much stronger than that baron, if they run into us, they will be unlucky." ”

"Okay. Seeing that no one else objected, Dio put down the topic.

The group began to prepare for the camping at night, of course, with Avery and others, there was no need for Dio and others to do it themselves. In a short time, rows of tents were erected on the flat ground, and even Dio was a little impressed by Avery at such a speed, and I have to say that although this fat man was useless, he was really well organized to do some trivial things.

Along the way, whether it is Raymond, who is very picky about food, or Sophia, who is used to living a life of fine clothes and food, they are full of praise for Ellie's cooking skills, and the existence of little Angel adds a lot of joy to everyone and makes the journey no longer so boring.

As soon as little Angel got out of the carriage, she first looked around, and when she saw Raymond's figure, she immediately laughed happily, took a short calf, and ran towards Raymond quickly.

Raymond was shocked, and hurriedly hid behind Dio, as if he had expected him to do this, Dio's figure flashed, and floated to Sophia's side, even Gordon ran away, and Raymond, who had no cover, had to stand helplessly in place, watching Angel gradually approach him.

"Hee-hee......" Little Angel threw herself on Raymond's lap, looked at Raymond with big eyes and blinked, and said in a milky voice: "Uncle Raymond, tell a story." ”

"Okay, good, tell a story...... Raymond wanted to cry and hugged little Angel without tears, since Raymond told a story to little Angel when he was bored that day, almost every day Little Angel would pester Raymond, it was so serious that if he didn't hear the story one day, he wouldn't sleep.

The problem is that there are only a few stories in Raymond's head, and he has told them several times, but little Angel is still happy to do it, and sometimes Raymond wonders, is this little girl's energy a little too strong?

"Take your time and be patient with children. Dio laughed.

"I'm grass, you know how to say cool things,......" Raymond said angrily, but before he could finish speaking, Gordon frowned over there: "Be careful not to swear, what else do you want to teach Angel?"

"I ......" Raymond opened his mouth and scolded in his heart, can the hell blame me, why don't you try to tell a story, the story, Lao Tzu will never do such a stupid thing again.

As soon as Raymond made up his mind, little Angel kissed Raymond on the face, and said happily: "Tell stories, tell stories, Uncle Raymond wants to tell me stories!"

Raymond can speak ill of Dio and Gordon, but he can't be ruthless to little Angel no matter what, not to mention that Raymond is still a little proud in his heart, do you see? Little Angel and I are the closest, you can't do it!

Thinking of this, Raymond finally balanced his heart, glanced at Gordon with disdain, and then hugged little Angel to the side and sat down, "Once upon a time, there was a very beautiful princess......

Although Raymond was not ready to deal with Gordon anymore, Gordon didn't seem to want to let him go, and stood there and laughed: "Raymond, have you never seen a princess in your life? Why is it that every time it starts, there is a princess, there is a very beautiful princess, my ears are almost out of the cocoon, can you change something else?"

"Let go of ......" Raymond suffocated the word 'fart' stiffly, and his heart was entangled, Lao Tzu came out to practice, not to be a nanny, some of them are good, you just watch from the side, why are you still picky?

"What are you thinking?" said Sophia softly to Theo, the two of them sitting far away from Raymond and Gordon, which could not be helped, because if they were too close to them, no matter how serious, the topic would eventually become plausible.

"Nothing. Dio smiled: "I just think it's too messy." ”

Sophia, of course, knew what Dio meant by chaos, and sighed slightly: "This world is like this, when war breaks out, for those ordinary people, maybe even survival will become a luxury. ”

"With Fedeers here, they don't dare to say anything, they don't dare to do anything. Dio said slowly: "Whether you are ridiculing them or ridiculing them, they can only remain obedient. ”

"Dio, what do you want to say?"

"What if Fedez isn't there?" Dior let out a long breath, "I'm still too fragile, you know? Sophia, my thirst for power is getting stronger. ”

Sophia looked at Dio movingly, since the reunion, both of them have deliberately avoided some heavy topics, this is the first time Dio confided in her, and it is from this moment that Sophia really feels that Dio has changed, and the image of the silent big boy in his memory has gradually blurred, replaced by the resolute man in front of him.

Sophia finally understood what she was wrong, and it was true that she was thinking about Dio's safety, so as soon as Dio was out of her sight, she began to worry. But on the other hand, this also reflects that Sophia has subconsciously continued the habit of more than ten years, that is, to protect Dio and not let Dio be hurt at all.

Sophia suddenly felt a little guilty, as an outstanding student of Santis Academy, Sophia certainly knew that if she wanted to become a real powerhouse, she would have to go through countless hardships and obstacles, first of all, she had to have the courage to spread her wings and fly, so that she could fight in the sky and soar above the clouds.

The road to the strong has never been a smooth road!

Looking at Dio's stubborn eyes, Sophia's eyes moistened a little, and she said softly: "I understand, Dio......"
