Chapter 237: The Ocean
"Are you sure you can see an ocean along this road through the dense forest?"
Mick looked at the squire in front of him with some disbelief, although this squire was working under Lord Bird, but Mick didn't know his nature, so he would inevitably have some suspicions. Especially when it comes to such shocking news.
"I'm sure I did," the attendant nodded in response.
Although the squire dared to show his dissatisfaction in front of a kind of knight members, in front of Captain Mick, the whole person seemed much more honest.
Mick led the Knights and his party to the Misty Forest as soon as they were led by Bird to the Misty Forest, and they rushed directly towards the Misty Forest. Luckily, Bird forgot to bring anything to prove his identity, and the group was stopped by the knights stationed in the watchtower, giving Mick a chance to catch up.
So the two groups met directly at the watchtower.
"In that case, my lord, why don't you go back to the city and rest first. I'll lead the Knights to continue their investigation, and if we get any news, we'll report back to you as soon as possible," Mick turned to look at Bird, and convincing Bird to return to the city was his ultimate goal.
"Mick, I want to see this ocean for the first time," Bird smiled and didn't speak.
"My lord, the Misty Forest is too dangerous right now, anything can happen!" Mick said with a serious expression, listening to this tone, there was a non-negotiable meaning.
"Mick, I believe in the Knights' abilities, and I believe in my own abilities even more. Believe me, even if I have any difficulties in the forest, I will be able to solve them independently."
"No," Mick continued to shake his head, "it's useless to say that now, if something happens to you, the entire Stanlow Free Territory may be in chaos." At the moment, you don't have any children. I can't watch the Stanlow Free Territory disintegrate. Or it will be taken back by the Empire."
"Lord Lord, you must know that you are not just representing you, but the whole of Stanlow. Nothing has been easy for Stanlow now, and there will be more, bigger things to come. You need to step in to solve it"
"So, please forgive me for my presumptuousness!" With that, Mick motioned directly to Lunsha and Gna behind him.
Looking at this posture, if Bird continues to make a strong statement that he wants to enter the Misty Forest and explore this newly discovered ocean together. The two men would immediately come forward and directly pick up Bird and bring him back to Stanlow City.
The group of attendants standing beside Bird also noticed this subtle change, and their faces were suddenly a little unpleasant. These people subconsciously moved closer to Bird's location, obviously. These people felt that they were being provoked.
Bird stared at Mick and didn't speak.
The atmosphere of the whole scene is somewhat frozen, and there is even a possibility that it tends to freeze.
However, as a breeze blew in from nowhere, the characteristic rustle of leaves rubbing against each other could be heard throughout the forest and beyond. This whole vision, and the oncoming wind, made Bird squint his eyes and subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Okay, so be it"
"Take out all the healing potions we have with us," Bird whispered to the attendant beside him.
Several people hurriedly handed over a bag of bottles and cans, and reached out and handed them over to Mick. The two members of the Order saw this. Quickly got out from behind Mick, took it, and then stepped back.
"Then I'll be waiting for the good news from Captain Mick in Stanlow City!"
"Definitely!" Mick replied with a nod.
Bird didn't stay long. As soon as Mick's voice fell, he left with the people.
Bird's whole movement was very fast, which directly made Lunsha and the others a little stunned.
"Captain, Lord Bird is angry?" Gna hurriedly asked after seeing Bird disappear at the border of his vision.
In his opinion, just Bird this series of things. Like a man who has been resented.
"Commander, I'm afraid I'm ...... if some of the words and actions just now are too tough" Lunsha revealed some worries.
If it hadn't been for Bird's sudden choice to back down for some reason, everything that would happen next might have gone in a bad direction in Lunza's opinion.
"Lord Bird will understand my painstaking feelings," he saw as Bird completely disappeared into the boundaries of his vision. Mick turned back and ordered, "Everyone take this healing potion, and get ready for us to walk into the forest!"
"Yes" shouted repeatedly, and everyone suddenly got busy.
During the daylight of the second day, Byrd received a letter from the Duchy of Bertat.
There are two letters, light and dark, and on the bright side is an official document, which is written that the former imperial baron misbehaved and killed the old baron, so as to seize the baronial position, and the new imperial baron Vader did justice yesterday, killed the imperial baron, and regained the position of baron that originally belonged to him. Therefore, this circular is hereby sent to the nearby principalities or free territories to show orthodoxy.
The letter in the secret is a superficial attitude of the Duchy of Bertat, saying that the former imperial baron of the dead has hurt the friendship between the two places, and the Duchy of Bertat is willing to make double reparations and concessions, so that the relationship between the two places can be restored and normal trade and partnership can be established.
Bird happened to finish reading these two letters, and the attendant hurriedly stepped forward, presented a piece of tissue paper, and said, "Lord Lord, this is what Captain Mick presented."
"Bring it"
When Bird got his hands on it, he found that it was far from being as thin as it seemed, and it seemed that because he had chosen a new paperstock, he could clearly feel that it was much heavier than the average paper.
Unfolded, a large sheet of paper in four stacks. There are a lot of lines on it, some straight and some curved, but at first glance you can't see anything.
But Bird looked at it fixedly, and immediately said with a happy face, "What a good place!"
"I didn't expect such a place to be hidden in the depths of this misty forest"
Seeing that Bird was so happy, the meaning of praise kept saying.
The attendant also figured out what Mick had presented.
"Captain Mike, by the way, Captain Mike should be tired! The things of the past few days have indeed kept him busy, and it's time to rest."
"My lord, Captain Mick is waiting outside."
"Then let him in!" Bird was already looking restless at this point.
The attendant had no thoughts in his heart at this time, and hurriedly followed Bird's orders, and led Mick directly into the door when he went out.
"My lord, I'm sure this place must be a very good deep-water port!" said Mick's first words as he entered the door. (To be continued.) )
