Chapter 16 The Wind and Snow Return to the Beloved

The wind and snow have covered the land, and it is still raining desperately. Delin stepped down into his waist, then pulled out his legs with difficulty, and then continued to step on. Today was the last day of the end of the adult trial, and of course he wouldn't just walk back, even if he had time and physical strength to keep up, he wouldn't do it. However, he had to find the right wood-making tools first.

This is a completely silent mountain forest, except for the sound of breathing and heartbeat, and the cold wind whistling in the ears. Came to a big tree, stretched out his hand, Tang knife suddenly appeared in Delin's hand, gathered momentum, force, and swung down with a knife, the tree was cut off with a knife, when Delin was thinking about whether he could reach the realm of "the knife does not move", the cold snowflakes filled his collar, and he shivered with cold.

Of course, Delin would not walk back, but it was probably more difficult to find and tame the beast in this cold and snowy terrain, so he chose to make a set of ski tools. For Delin now, learning to ski in a short period of time is not a problem at all.

To the north of Alan City, there are already a lot of people gathered near the stone platform known as "The Return of the Hero". Someone kept stretching out their heads out of the shack in the cold wind and snow, constantly looking north, looking anxious and worried. With a few hours to go, many people no longer expect the people they were waiting to bring back enough loot as long as they could return safely.

This year, there are more people here and the mood is even worse than in previous years. Because according to the news from the "guardians" of the court, many undead have been found on the other side of the river, and a few have crossed the river! Although the guardians claim to have killed all the undead who crossed the river, who knows if any of them have slipped through the net? And it has been confirmed that a noble young master died in this trial. This led to even greater panic. Fortunately, even if the royal family reacted, announcing the early end of the trial. Many people rushed back, which gradually quelled the rumor that most of the trialists had been slaughtered by the undead.

Those who came back were able to see the magic fireworks, and those who didn't see the signal didn't necessarily die, and in the next few days, many people came back one after another.

The people of the Tariq family are also waiting here, and unlike the others, they are in an even worse mood. Because in the plan discussed before, Master Delin Tariq should have crossed the Erosion River to the opposite side, and went deep into the opposite side. Moreover, it was confirmed that Young Master Delin did go to the other side and never returned. This is what those arrogant noble young masters said themselves.

Although I have largely believed their words in my heart, there are still people here waiting for a miracle to happen. Kate, Ramour, and Delon stood at the outskirts of the shack, their eyes staring into the distance, not caring that the snow had melted and soaked their upper bodies. Although this is a shack for the nobility, a shack is a shack, not a comfortable and warm room in Alan. Ling Feng sat alone on the side, constantly running and polishing his fighting spirit, and everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him. Marta, on the other hand, found a corner where the wind and snow couldn't blow, holding her head in her hands, not knowing what she was thinking, and went outside to take a look after a while.

Next to the five Windguards, Galen Tariq was training non-stop as usual, and he looked like he had come here to train on purpose. Glancing at the three Kates, who were as motionless as wood, Galen didn't know why they were worried about Delin, in his opinion, it was completely superfluous, maybe Delin would show up at the last minute, and throw out an unexpected trophy to win the trial championship in one fell swoop! In his opinion, that person should do something earth-shattering.

The snow stopped at some point, and the wind guard experienced one wave after another of new wave ups and downs. One by one, the figures appeared, but in the end they found out that it was not Master Delin. Now, a dark shadow appeared again in the vast snow, and Kate's mood became tense again.

The dark shadow was approaching this way at an incredible speed. Is he on a sleigh? But it's not like it. Finally, the general outline can be seen.

"Marta, come out and take a look! Is that Master Delin?!" Carter's voice trembled with excitement, and his heart was more scared than happy, staring at Marta who had just run out, hoping that he would not give that heartbreaking answer.

Marta carefully glanced at the rapidly approaching figure several times, and after making sure that she was not mistaken, she said to Kate with a look of disbelief, "Yes... It's our Young Master Delin, that's right!"

After making sure she had heard correctly, Kate immediately rushed out of the shack and ran towards Delin, followed by the others. Ling Feng's eyes were full of astonishment, while Galen had a natural expression.

No one knew how excited Delin was when he saw the tall walls of Alan City, and he had been gliding for hours after hours in the almost white snow, and he was lost!

"Young Master!" came to Delin, and several wind guards were extremely happy and surprised. They don't have flowery language, they don't express themselves well, but the excitement and joy in their hearts can't be hidden.

"I'm back! Delin looked at the few people in front of him, and his heart was also infinitely moved. In the past five years, they have faithfully guarded his side, giving him love and care. It can be said that even if they owe Thangka Tariq a life, all this has already been paid off. What's more, they don't owe anything to the thangka, there are no immortals in war. As the commander of the first army, it is also within the scope of his responsibilities to take the lead. These loyal men insisted on their own views and fulfilled their promises that were not needed. These five years are their golden time.

"Let's go, let's talk about it later, I'll go and check the loot first. Delin could tell that they had been waiting here for a long time, especially the three Kate, whose upper bodies were almost soaked. He also noticed Galen, who was looking at him with a fanatical adoring look.

Delin climbed step by step, and there were already people waiting on the hero's return, an old man, a court mage, and a warrior. In front of them was a two-square-meter wide table with scarlet blood stains on it.

"Take out your loot and put it on the table. "It was the old man who spoke. Although he was talking, he didn't even raise his head, and held his head with one hand, as if he was taking a nap. The warrior looked at the book, and the mage drew the scroll on the small table he had brought with him.

"Are you sure you want to put it on the table?" asked Delin politely.

"Yes, little one, let you go, let you go!" more verbose than an old man like me......" The old man obviously did not like to be disturbed by his nap.

"Bang~!" As soon as his words fell, a heavy object appeared out of thin air, and with a violent sound, the sturdy table became a pile of rotten wood, covered with a huge... Turtle shells.

A loud noise alarmed the warrior who was reading the book, and a wave of magic ripples came out from the magician's scroll, apparently a failure. The old man was the first to react.

"Boy, what are you doing?!" The old man was a little angry, and the aristocratic boy in front of him looked a little uncomfortable with himself.

"Didn't you tell me to put it on it? Who knew this table was so sturdy. Delin shrugged helplessly.

"You...... Is this a rock turtle?" the old man glanced at Delin with a look of incredulity, and then pounced near the turtle shell and began to examine it.

The people nearby also heard the noise, and came over to see the excitement, and after a while, they formed a circle around the hero's return. Seeing the huge turtle shell-like thing on the stage, many people began to talk about it. It was a bit of a commotion for a while, but it didn't affect Delin, let alone the three people in charge of the inspection, especially the old man.

Thanks to their efforts, the huge, heavy shell was turned over several times, and it was finally determined that it had indeed been recently killed.

"You dare to guarantee in the name of the nobles that you killed it?" almost all eyes were on Delin.

"Yes, in the name of the Tariq family, I promise that the rock turtle in front of me died at my hands during the trial, and if it is not true, I, Delin Tariq, am willing to accept the punishment of the gods. Delin's voice was calm, not loud or heroic.

"Can you tell me how you killed it?" the warrior asked.

"I'm sorry, it's my secret. The great Maudecaesar said that when the combination of wisdom and strength is the beginning of a miracle. "Of course, Delin won't tell his secret, he just needs to convince others that he killed the rock turtle.

"Your name is Delin Tariq?" the mage, who had been silent, began.

"Yes......" Delin looked at his eyes and couldn't take his eyes off it anymore, and the other party's eyes seemed to become a starry sky, beautiful, profound, intoxicating, and sinking......

"Are you really Delin Tariq?" a voice rang out across the starry sky.

"Yes. ”

"You killed this rock turtle?"

"Yes. ”

"How did you kill it?"

"It's a psychic attack scroll, and the defense of its back shell is too strong. ”

"Can you tell me where your psychic attack scroll came from?"

"I picked it up on the other side of the Erosion River. ”

......

Delin and the magician looked at each other before ending the conversation.

"Congratulations, Mr. Delin, you are now an adult and enjoy all the privileges of being an adult. The squire who handled the certificate looked at Delin with a "you know" look. Delin didn't skimp on tipping a few gold coins either

Two minutes later, Delin had proof that the trial had been successful. From this moment on, he is a real adult in the Kingdom of Ailan, he can inherit property, join the army, fall in love, go to the continent, and do everything you want, even if you go to the "Pink Heaven" openly, which is the largest gold cave in Ailan City.

Delin came to the huge turtle shell and was about to put it into the spatial ring, when a figure appeared next to him.

"Are you going to sell it?" the warrior looked at Delindao, with no expression on his face and a casual movement.

"No, sir, I'm going to keep it in my collection, it's commemorative, isn't it?" Delin didn't care about it originally, but it must be a good thing to make the other party such a palace forbidden army general so attentive.

"I can offer a very high price, you can think about it. The other party still didn't give up.

"Sir, the Tariq family has never been short of money and will be richer in the future. After saying that, Delin put the turtle shell into the spatial ring, and then walked down without looking back. The warrior's face was a little ugly.

"That's a funny guy, isn't it?" suddenly another person suddenly appeared next to the warrior, and the abrupt voice startled him slightly.

"Old man Snebut, you have to be careful next time you show up like this, maybe I'll cut you down with a sword if I'm not careful!" the warrior said, turning and leaving.
