Goose feathers and snow fell again in the gray sky, and Surdak looked at the snowflakes flying out of the window, and was a little worried that the horse-drawn carriage carrying the sulfur ore in the village of Wall Village would be stuck on the mountain road, but he sat in the classroom, but his thoughts had already flown outside.

In recent times, Surdak has become famous in the Knight Academy, and many Cadet Knight Trainees know that he has saved many people during winter hunting activities. Although the specific details have not yet been announced, many of the apprentice knights in the Knight Academy are related to this matter, this city seems to be very large, but the so-called aristocratic circle is actually not big, and the speed of transmission of some things is simply beyond imagination.

Darcy. Christie had just walked up the stairs to the third floor of the school building, and Surdak, who was sitting in the large classroom, had already received the news.

When her figure appeared at the door of the classroom, her long red hair swayed slightly in the crack of the door, the eyes of the probationary knights in the classroom were fixed on Surdak, this kind of attention courtesy made Surdak very unaccustomed, he walked out of the classroom in the eyes of everyone, and saw Darcy. Christie looked over with a smile, pulled her a few steps to the outer fence of the hallway, and asked strangely, "What is it worth your visit?" I don't have classes in the afternoon, do you want to go to the sword hall to have a discussion? ”

Darcy. Christie turned around, she had recently lost some weight, she shook her fluffy red curls, stared at Surdak and said, "I now have every reason to suspect that you were secretly releasing water when you were fighting in the Sword Pavilion, and finally deliberately lost to me." ”

Surdak leaned against the fence and spread his hands, looking calm at Darcy. Christie said: "In terms of pure sword skills, I am indeed inferior to you, and it is not a fight to the death, the battle on the battlefield is very different from the sword skills competition in the sword hall, for example, I definitely don't dare to use too fancy moves in front of the evil spirits, in addition, if the sword hall allows me to take a shield, the outcome may be very different." ”

Darcy. Christie suddenly said, "On the battlefield you are a shield warrior. At the Knight Academy, you are a knight. And in the sword hall, you are learning pure sword skills? ”

"What's wrong with that?" Surdak smiled faintly.

"Nope!" Darcy replied simply, but the expression on her face was very unhappy.

She gestured to the top of the stairs and motioned for Surdak to leave with her.

Walking down the stairs along the corridor of the teaching building, Surdak realized that the next class was doomed, so he ran to the teaching staff room to ask Assistant Professor Paplo for leave.

Assistant Teacher Paplo was sitting on a chair in the faculty room drinking tea, and when Surdak walked in, he happened to see Darcy outside the window. Christie's red hair, although he and Darcy. Christie hardly has any intersections, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know the eldest lady of the Christie family, she is also a celebrity in the Knight Academy, even if the dean has to give it to Darcy. Christie has a little face. So he very happily promised Surdak that he would help him ask for leave from Instructor Milono.

Since Surdak has rarely attended physical training classes and equestrian classes, he is not very familiar with Instructor Milono. Christie walked out of the school building together.

Darcy. Christie said to him as she walked, "The winter hunt is almost over, the aftermath is nearing the end, there are many people who want to see you, those people want to thank you in person, the evaluation report given by the Magic Guild Law Enforcement Team is very high on you, without you, or we wouldn't have survived that night." ”

Surdak scratched his somewhat messy hair vigorously and asked, "Just because I killed that necromancer?" ”

"Yes!" Darcy. Christie's answer was still succinct.

There was already a thick layer of snow on the playground, and snowflakes fell on Darcy. Christie's hair quickly fell into a thick layer.

The two of them walked quickly to the magic caravan parked at the entrance of the academy, boarded the carriage and quickly closed the door, which could be regarded as blocking the snow outside.

Darcy waved his hand to the coachman in the driver's seat, signaling that the coachman could go, and then took out a bottle of golden cider from the secret compartment of the carriage, Surdak waved his hand, he was not in the habit of using wine as a drink, Darcy. Christie only poured herself a glass and took a sip before saying to Surdak: "There are many things you may not know, a month ago, Providencian Manor in Bednar City was attacked by ghosts, although a team of constructed knights entered the manor in the end, but only some low-level skeleton warriors were left, not to mention the main messenger, and even the shadow of the ghost was not caught. ”

Surdak sat across from Darcy and listened quietly. Christie added: "In addition to the attack on Providencian Manor, Leonard ran out of Bednar City with Miss Fanny, and the two of them went all the way north, reaching several cities along the way, and every time they reached a city, the necromancer caught up, and a manor would be attacked by the undead, and Highlandsa City happened to be their sixth stop......"

"You're saying they brought calamity?" Surdak didn't expect this matter to be so widespread.

Darcy. Christie nodded, and added, "Maybe they didn't realize it themselves, but what is certain is that Miss Fanny has a very keen sense of danger, and every time danger comes, she pulls Leonard out early." And not all of the manors have suffered huge losses, once it is confirmed that they are not in the manor, the necromancer will definitely not stay long, he will not hesitate to leave and continue to track......"

Darcy paused before adding, "The Magical Guild Enforcement Team in Bednar City has been investigating this for more than a month. ”

"Leonard is your friend?" Surdak asked curiously.

Darcy. Christie nodded and said: "We are studying together at the Bednar Advanced Swordsman Academy, and we are both graduates this year, we usually participate in training activities together, and we are very familiar with each other, Leonard is not bad in all aspects, but he is a little timid." ”

For this kind of friend who can cause trouble, Surdak looked at Darcy with great sympathy. Christie at a glance.

He asked curiously, "What about Miss Fanny?" ”

"I don't know!" Darcy. When Christie heard the name Vanney, she said with a look of resentment: "Before Leonard left Highlandza, I also talked to him about it, Leonard and Miss Fanny first met at the ball at the Earl of Providence's house in the city of Pena, Miss Fanny's origin is somewhat mysterious, few people know her, it is said that she is the youngest daughter of a southern noble lord, and she travels everywhere. Later, they seemed to have afternoon tea together, and Miss Fanny invited Leonard to her room for cookies in the evening......"

Surdak: "Leonard agreed?" ”

Darcy. Christie said angrily: "Probably no man would refuse this kind of thing!" ”

After speaking, he also glanced deeply at Surdak.

"Ahem!" Surdak coughed lightly to hide the embarrassment on his face, then changed the subject and asked, "Doesn't anyone know where she got the lich skull?" Rasmar priests don't just travel around the continent. ”

"There's no news on that yet." Darcy. Christie shook her head and said. "I heard that the Lich Skull contains the Lich's legacy, and that inheriting the Lich Legacy can turn her into a Lich with a lifespan of thousands of years, maybe that's what she wants, maybe she's guided by a god...... This lich skull is said to be a very good high-class sacrifice. ”

The two sat in the magic caravan and talked all the way until the magic caravan slowly stopped on the side of the road, and the coachman jumped down from the driver's seat, opened the door for the two of them, and said respectfully: "Miss Darcy, we have arrived!" ”

……

Surdak and Darcy. Christie walked into the town hall, and the logistics quartermaster office was in the east corner of the hall on the first floor, so the hall was very lively. He saw some witchers and adventurers queuing up at the reception desk to register, and was very curious to look over, Darcy. Christie was familiar with this place and took the initiative to explain to Surdak that there was also an exchange service for goods at the Quartermaster Service of the City Hall, and the exchange price was lower than that of some comptoirs.

As for why there are still people who go to the logistics quartermaster office of the city hall to exchange materials, it is because the pricing here is more fair, in addition, some special items can also get the contribution of Highlandsa City, such as unidentified black magic crystals, high-grade magical beast materials, and so on. Many witchers and party-goers will bring their supplies here to redeem them.

Darcy. Christie walked directly to the fourth floor of the city hall with Surdak, a female clerk stood at the top of the stairs, saw Miss Darcy appear, and took the initiative to meet the two to lead the way, she turned her head and glanced at Surdak quite seriously, and said to Darcy. Christie whispered, "The Archon has arrived, and this is the Knight of Surdak?" ”

Darcy. Christie nodded, didn't say much, and didn't introduce the two of them.

Surdak smiled at the female clerk, and then the three of them came to a large door, the female clerk pushed open the arched thick carved red lacquered wooden door on the side, and there was a compartment in the door, against the wall was a desk, in addition to some documents and office supplies, some coats hung on the back hangers, and on the opposite side of the desk was the waiting area, on the small square table was a set of delicate teacups and a plate of pastries.

The trio did not stop here, and the female clerk took Surdak and Darcy . Christie led into the inner office, which was very spacious, with lots of greenery in the room, and if it weren't for the heavy snow blowing outside the window, Surdak would have the illusion of summer. On the left side of the office is a shelf against the wall, where a five-meter-long and two-meter-wide sand table stands proudly from the halfway point of the hill in the center of the sandbox.

Bernard. Marquis Christie was sitting at his desk looking at a stack of papers when he saw Miss Darcy and Surdak walk in,

Surdak stepped forward, straightened up, knightly saluted Marquis Bernard, and said without humility or arrogance: "Your Excellency. ”

The middle-aged man in front of him, dressed in aristocratic clothes, is not only the ruler of the Christie family. Christie's father, who was also the consul of the city of Highlandza, had the same face as Darcy. Christie had a striking resemblance, although Surdak did not see the knightly guards in the office, but there was an invisible coercion in this room, and that terrifying feeling made Surdak a little breathless.

Darcy. Christie walked to the sand table alone, bent down, put her hands on her knees, and looked seriously at the city of Highlandsa in the sand table.
