Chapter 59: The Lookout Line
In the eastern plain of the imperial capital, a huge blue flying dragon suddenly obscured the sun, turned into an endless dark night, and fell on the plain.
The moment the large crowd around saw this flying dragon, Gu straightened his back solemnly and looked towards the flying dragon's back.
There, a blonde knight was looking grim, and hurriedly jumped down from the back of the wyvern, shouting to the crowd around him, "Which of you has holy water on you, hurry up and treat this child!"
Hearing this, everyone around Gu was stunned, surrounded by their eyes, and looked at each other.
Starlight and Zero Yi also jumped off the back of the wyvern at this moment and came behind the knight youth.
In their hands, Gu Shi was holding a thin young man who had fallen into a coma, his face was pale and he looked extremely weak.
"It's ...... Blood?" At the moment when Starlight and Zero Yi appeared, a series of screams of surprise continued to sound from the crowd, and everyone's eyes were on a young man in Zero Yi's hand.
That young man was Gu Brown, who at this time was like a rotten tree that had been aged for many years, his body was shriveled and emitted a strange smell, which made people uncomfortable.
And the reason for all this is the gray substance that spreads on its body.
Unlike the two of Xinghui, the surrounding patrol members were veterans who had dealt with demon seeds for many years, so when they saw the gray matter on Gu Brown's body, they quickly reacted and were shocked.
"It's amazing, it's the first time I've seen the blood filth that has spread to this situation!"
"How did he get a child with blood?"
"Leave that alone for now, hurry up and treat it with holy water!"
For a while, the surrounding crowd was noisy, and while they were talking to each other about something, they took out the holy water from their bodies and sprinkled it on Gu Brown's body.
With the baptism of these holy waters, the gray matter on Gu Brown's body finally fell off in large pieces, sparsely sprinkled on the ground, and floated away along the direction of the wind.
"Put them in the tent first, someone will take care of them. ”
When the gray matter on Gu Brown's body had fallen off, a patrol member came up to Starlight and smiled at the two of them.
Starlight and Zero Yi glanced at each other, nodded, and smiled at the patrolman, "Then I'll trouble you." ”
"It's fine. The patrol shook his head, then turned and walked to the side.
Xinghui and the others hurriedly followed, and soon disappeared from everyone's view.
The other patrolmen stood still, their eyes gradually converging towards the young knights.
"Your Excellency......" Finally, a patrolman wearing square-rimmed glasses hesitated in place for a while, but he still relented, came to the young knight, leaned over and said, "My lord, why did you bring four children here?"
Hearing this, the rest of the people also gave puzzled glances to the young knight, quietly waiting for the young man's answer.
After all, this is a lookout line built to prevent that extremely dangerous demon seed, and the security is more than a star and a half worse than in the imperial capital!
What if these children who are still students come to this kind of place, what if something happens?
The young knight sighed lowly, looking a little helpless: "Because the situation is special......"
"Special?" The patrol member was slightly stunned, and his expression became even more confused.
"Well, anyway, this matter is a bit troublesome, let's start the meeting first, I need to know the recent information of that demon seed. As he spoke, the young knight walked towards a tent, his tone extremely serious.
"Yes!" Behind him, a group of patrol members saluted solemnly and said respectfully to the young knight.
......
At night, the curtain in front of the tent was suddenly lifted, and Starlight and Zero Yi couldn't help but turn their heads and cast a surprised look at a young girl at the door.
The girl's appearance is not very beautiful, and the overall dress is also very plain, wrapped in a pale yellow lace apron in front of her, she is turning slightly sideways, and walking from under the curtain with a bowl of broth in one hand.
"Here, it's yours. The girl leaned down, handed out the broth in front of her, and smiled at the two of them.
"Forehead......" Xinghui took it a little indifferently, sucked it in a daze, and suddenly came back to his senses, slightly bulging his eyes at the girl and said in amazement, "You also came here because of some special circumstances?"
"Not really. The girl smiled and shook her head, the long ponytail behind her swaying with the swaying of her body, and gently patted on her shoulders with a subtle sound.
"But you...... You're a student, aren't you?" Starlight asked again, in his eyes, this girl should be his age, the kind of person who shouldn't be in this kind of place.
"Huh, do I look so young? I'm in my twenties. The girl suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled, as if she was extremely happy with Starlight's misunderstanding.
"More than twenty, I really can't see it!" Ling Yi took another bowl of broth in surprise and exclaimed.
Hearing this, the girl couldn't help but smile more and more brightly, and the ponytail behind her kept swinging.
"If this is the one next to me, he will be bald in his twenties. At this time, Xinghui suddenly glanced at Ling Yi and said abruptly.
"What did you say?" Zero Yi looked sideways, squinting at the broth in front of him.
"I said you'd be bald!" Facing Ling Yi's suddenly dangerous gaze, Xinghui was not afraid, and he also brushed the bangs in front of his forehead defiantly, showing off his hairline.
"Heh, do you have the ability to say it again?" Zero Yi asked again as he inhaled one of the flesh bones and turned to Starlight.
"Just say it, you bald!" Starlight continued to provoke, pouring a mouthful of broth into his mouth.
In this way, the two looked at each other solemnly, one chewing the meat and bones in his mouth, and the other holding a mouthful of broth in his mouth and moving it left and right.
"That ......" The girl noticed the sudden change in the atmosphere between the two, and couldn't help but be a little worried, and whispered.
"Phew!"
"Poof!"
Suddenly, the soup in Starlight's mouth spit out along with the bones in Zero's mouth, squirting towards the other party.
"Cao Sen! Just look at you chewing the bones and know it's not good!"
"Ahh
Looking at the two people arguing in front of her, the girl suddenly showed a helpless smile, looked away as if she was escaping, and looked behind the two.
There, Gu Brown and Ta Mo were lying unconscious on top of their sleeping bags, motionless.
"Is their situation better?" the girl asked, stopping the two of them from arguing fiercely.
The two of them couldn't help but turn around, their eyes wandering back and forth between Ancient Brown and Tamo.
After a long time, Xinghui sighed and scratched his head a little irritably: "The medical staff came to see it, and said that there was no big problem, but ......"
"Huh?" the girl looked up and looked at Starlight in confusion.
"This guy!" Xinghui instantly gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Brown with hatred, "This guy will have to undergo a few months of quarantine after returning to the city because of the excessive spread of blood filth, in case the blood revives will really cause trouble!"
"If it weren't for the fact that you still have a little conscience to protect Tamo, I'......"
The more Starlight spoke, the more excited he became, almost unable to suppress his anger, and from time to time a small silver arc burst out of his body, pulsing towards the surroundings!
Thanks to Zero Yi covering his mouth in time, he didn't say anything he shouldn't have said.
The girl saw Ling Yi's suddenly panicked look, her eyes trembled slightly, and she smiled softly at the two of them: "Then I will leave first, there are other patients who need me to deliver food." ”
"Oh......" Zero Yi nodded with a smile until the girl stepped out of the tent before letting out a relaxed breath.
"Can't you just pay a little more attention?"
"Cut!" Starlight turned his head disdainfully, took a sleeping bag from the corner and spread it out, and went straight inside.
Ling Yi lifted the curtain, looked at the bright moon hanging in the distant sky, and sighed a little sadly: "Tomorrow's class ......"
"It's warped!" Starlight said hatefully.
......
On the other side, in a military tent the size of half a hall, the young knight was holding one hand to his chin, frowning and closing his eyes in thought.
After a long time, the young knight opened his eyes and said in a deep voice to the five people sitting in front of him, "What you said is true?"
"It's true, my lord. A woman in a patrol uniform stood up and said solemnly to the young knight, and on his chest, a pale gold diamond-shaped badge glittered, revealing her different identity.
She is none other than the leader of these patrol squads, Lovi.
I saw his footsteps straddle slightly, and he came to the side of the knight young man and said in a condensed voice: "According to close observation in recent days, the twenty-third rank of the demon seed crystal pupil spirit turtle has been entrenched in front of the Divine Relic Mountain three days ago, falling into a deep sleep, and with it as the center, all the demon seeds within a radius of five kilometers have also fallen into a deep sleep, motionless. ”
"Sleeping ......," the young knight muttered, raising his head a little solemnly, "Is there only one strange point of sleep?"
"Yes. Luo Wei replied.
"Have you found out the cause of this phenomenon?" asked the young knight again.
"This ......"
Luo Wei choked on her throat and glanced at the four behind her.
The four of them shook their heads regretfully and gave Luo Wei an apologetic look.
"Nope. Seeing this, Luo Wei still whispered to the knight youth after a little hesitation.
"Is it...... knight young man sighed, and then smiled at the five people in front of him, "Don't blame yourself, after all, it is a dangerous demon seed of the twenty-third rank, and it is reasonable that you dare not investigate deeply, I will not blame you." ”
"Yes......" Hearing this, Luo Wei and the others raised their heads in surprise, and looked at the young knight in front of them with some surprise.
Indeed, because the Crystal Pupil Spirit Tortoise was too powerful, they never dared to cross the Divine Relic Mountain to investigate deeply, at most, they only climbed to the top of the Divine Relic Mountain and looked at the Crystal Pupil Spirit Tortoise from a distance.
Originally, I thought that the knight-sama would blame them for this, but I didn't expect it......
"Hmm......" Just when Luo Wei and the others were stunned, the young knight on the opposite side stretched out abruptly and whispered to Luo Wei, "Let's get here first today, tomorrow you send a few people to me, and I will take them over to investigate." ”
"Yes!"
