Chapter 34: Departure
Along the way, Thuris roughly explained to the three of them about the personnel arrangements he was responsible for, no matter how big or small, Wei Lin was only at the meeting, and the people below must know very well what should be done. Thuris, on the other hand, went into more detail about the work they were responsible for.
"Don't be too nervous, nothing usually happens during this shipment. Thuris had dark green skin, and his bare fangs made him a little more hideous. However, he still tried to talk to the three of them in a very kind tone at the moment. "I don't have any archers or magicians, but I'm basically a swordsman or hunter, plus a few necessary priests. ”
Of the three, it was Priest who came forward to ask questions, and the other two didn't seem to be willing to speak at the moment. "The Joseph family is also a big family as far as I know, why don't they deserve to be accompanied by magicians and cavalry?"
"Well, I came in a hurry before, and I didn't expect such a big battle to happen in Rock Ridge City, so I didn't expect it. Patriarch Weilin just thought that there shouldn't be much of a problem here in the 'Shield of the Giant Rock', so it should be considered light. Thullis simply explained a few words, without further ado, and answered the question symbolically.
In fact, it is also strange that Priest has been dealing with some poor people and small mercenary groups in the lower classes for many years, and the most popular ones here are some hunters and magicians who are good at trap tracking. Hunters can quickly find their prey and catch it with traps when it is safe on their side, minimizing casualties, and civilians even have a luxury in asking for a priest. Wizard is recognized as the class with the highest single output in small-scale conflicts, and it is difficult to compare the output of a mage among low-level warriors. It's just the simplest fireball technique, as long as it's properly arranged, a low-level mage can stand aside without any scruples and keep releasing until the magic power is exhausted, which is much stronger than an ordinary archer or something. In the eyes of most people, the magician is a moving vault, and any bit of magic raw materials and equipment is a sky-high existence in the eyes of the common people. You know, one gold coin is enough to feed a large family for a few months, and you can even add some bacon from time to time!
Mercenary groups, poor people and the like all live at the bottom of society, and they are full and hungry every day. Naturally, I want to have a hunter or a magician who can quickly solve the Warcraft, in their opinion, the Warcraft are a group of brainless beasts, as long as they arrange it properly, if they get a Warcraft that sells at a good price, it will be enough for a group of them to eat for a long time. For a long time, Priest has cultivated the idea of seeing hunters and ubiquitous swordsmen as the simplest and cheapest types of troops, and the knightly concept rooted in his heart still regards the combination of knights and magicians as the strongest and most reasonable combination in the continent.
It's just that how could this Joseph convoy care about that little profit, for them, the knights and magicians of the brigade should be next to the most important and valuable goods. Cost, this is a word that every businessman must learn at the beginning. Even a simple light cavalry would cost enough to feed several strong swordsmen. Especially in the jungles and hills, the knights are really a little cheap, and a group of swordsmen plus a few magicians as a backing are enough. It is important that the goods are not damaged, and the benefits that come can make even a viscount blush. The convoys all took official roads and other avenues, and the hunters under Xiulis were more experts in reconnaissance and tracking, and as long as the goods were not intercepted, their duties would be fulfilled.
Along the way, Thuris introduced some of the security leaders of the team to them, and bluntly stated that he was mainly responsible for the actions of the three of them. But if someone else comes to them for help under certain circumstances, I also hope that the three of them can do as much as possible and not make the team too stiff.
Priest naturally responded, and Davion didn't say much along the way. It was the first time for him to go out alone to contact outsiders, and it was inevitable that he couldn't let go, so he was basically learning from Priest at this time. At this time, when Weilin, Thullis and others saw him, they all thought that he was an introverted child, and basically everything was explained to Priest.
"I'll have to leave tomorrow morning at six o'clock, so let's go to bed early. Thuris walked all the way, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at their residence.
"Okay, thank you seniors for telling us so much, so good night. Priest thanked him without humility or arrogance.
"Good night. ”
When Thullis was far away, Priest turned around, "Starting tomorrow, it's the first time we'll set off together for training." Priest said, holding out his hand. "May the Lord bless you and have a happy cooperation!"
"Smack. Lena walked over and slapped Priest's hand away. "Boring. Then he turned and went into the room, and Priest was stunned for a moment and then only smiled bitterly, Lena's temperament made it a little difficult for him to get used to.
Davion patted his outstretched hand. "You, sometimes, you talk about the Lord every day. Priest listened to this, but showed a very serious expression. "How can we say that? The Lord has given us everything, and of course we must ...... it religiously"
Davion also knew that he was like this, so he didn't say anything. With a wave of his hand, he turned and walked into the room. "Good night. Leaving Priest alone there shaking his head.
Lying on the bed, looking at the familiar ceiling, Davian couldn't sleep for a long time. It's been more than a year since he first came out to practice, and he doesn't know how he spent more than a year, and the excitement when he first came out has long been swallowed up by bitterness and loneliness. Another reason why he was so good to Alessia was that she was the first person Davien had ever met to accompany him when he came out alone, not so much because the lively and cheerful elf girl aroused his affection at first sight, but because of his anxiety about the future, which made him desperate for someone to accompany him. An ancient sociologist once left a famous saying: "Man is a social animal." It's a pity that she left alone just after the battle, and here again, Davian was left alone in Rock Ridge City.
With his left hand caressing the granite wall, Davian lay on the bed as if he were in a dream. Since coming to Rock Ridge City, I have lived in this room under the arrangement of my little uncle. At that time, I still had some "ambitions" in my heart, even if I slept in the open along the way, I couldn't change the burning heart for the future at that time. Fatigue provoked Davion's vision of the future, and the thought of being able to make a big difference here was a young knight's fiery heart tumbling. It's a pity that it backfired, even here, with the company of Olesia, plus the care of the little uncle and other elders, it couldn't eliminate the fear and loneliness he felt in his heart.
Yes, fear, it is a by-product of a strong sense of responsibility and a proud sense of superiority, especially after being on the battlefield and seeing the real opponents of the future, and only getting a glimpse of the tip of the army of natural disasters. He is not Julius Caesar, let alone the pride of heaven that everyone fantasizes about, he is just a 13-year-old boy who has just come out of a small mountain village and left his parents to go alone. Once, too, he thought he was good enough to take on this responsibility, as all the elders in that village had commented. Growing up, his parents have always been strict with him, training exactly according to a top knight and warrior, and he has always thought so in his heart. Although his mother's favor made him not worry about food and clothing, he never fell behind in his daily training, nor did he ever lazy. This made him stand out from the crowd of his peers, and it wasn't until he came out that he realized that the world was so big. The heir of the Dark Dragon Family may sound very powerful, but unfortunately this identity has not brought him much glory so far, but it is more stressful.
When he first came to Rock Ridge City, he was still extremely excited. But no matter how he trained during the day, what new things he saw in the city, he still quarreled with Olesia. At night, he still can't help but think of his parents who are thousands of miles away, think of their faces, and sometimes secretly cry. Thinking of this, Davian couldn't help but rub his pillow. "I don't know how my parents are doing in the past year. ”
Tears, this is a sign of weakness in the eyes of many people, and tears should be a sign of weakness. But Davian sometimes can't help but think of his parents at night, every inch of his hometown and every detail of his memory can be engraved in his heart, the clearer it is, the more it can arouse his sadness, and it is not until a long time that he slowly adapts. At the end of the day, he's just an ordinary kid. He is not a son of a dragon, he is gifted and calm, and he can see everything so sensibly and coldly. For a child, the love of others, no matter how sincere, is not as good as the company of parents.
As the saying goes, "For a child, the mother is everything to him." ”
Few people can understand the heart of a child who is so far away from home, especially when countless excellent and powerful geniuses cover up his excellence, the loneliness and blow are actually far greater than many adults think, just like for a toddler, you snatch his toys and candy, you are robbing his world.
Since Olesia left, Davion, who was originally more introverted, had even more difficulty speaking. Except for familiar elders such as Uncle Xiao and Aunt Ika, Davian may not be able to speak a few words a week. Oh, and the horse.
This room has been with him for a year. When he first came in, the little uncle took care of him, and all the furniture in the room was replaced with new ones. Although it didn't cost much, it did warm Davian's heart at that time. Now, the brown edge of the bed is visibly rounded and shiny. On the desk next to him were neatly arranged the books he had read, as well as the notes he usually took to take things. In the bright moonlight, it was obvious that there were obvious signs of wear and tear on the floor somewhere in the room, where he had been exercising regularly in the room for the past year, and if you looked closely, you could see many dots pressed by the tip of the sword against the ground.
Tomorrow, I will leave here, in the end, I am still a little reluctant, but life will start after all.
However, this time, he is no longer lonely.
