Chapter 24: Homecoming
Two days later, early in the morning.
Roman pushed Emma's arm away, rolled over and got out of bed, yawning, and stretching wide.
Two days of tutoring, not only tutoring Emma wizarding knowledge, but also learning foreign languages in bed.
Roman's strength is close to that of a big knight, both physically and in all aspects, Emma only has the strength of a knight, and is easily killed by Roman to lose his armor and deeply appreciate the fun of learning foreign languages.
After two days of spending time together, Roman learns that Emma comes from a wizarding family.
This means that Emma's parents, grandparents, uncles and brothers are all wizards, and Emma has a higher starting point and has demonized items at the beginning of the school.
Roman pondered that if he could eat a few bites of soft rice, he would be able to solve a considerable part of his cultivation resources.
But after he hesitated for three seconds, he gave up this plan, all the gifts given by fate had already been marked with a price, he had a chip, and he was confident that he could grab the cultivation resources, so he really didn't have to eat soft rice.
Finally, he lowered his head, kissed the sleeping Emma, and left the room.
After packing up a little and packing his bags, Roman headed to the airship airport, and today was the day he agreed to set off with William and Joss.
When he arrived, the two had been waiting for a long time, and they were much more pompous than Roman's light-heartedness.
Joss was followed by twenty knights, each clad in a stubborn and tenny bag, while William was not so many, about seven or eight, but the cold battle aura on his body showed that they were all great knights.
There are often only a few knights under the command of a mortal nobleman, and the big knights are even rarer, and these twenty-eight knights are simply invincible when they go to the mortal battlefield.
Perceiving Roman's inquisitive gaze, William explained:
"They are all mercenaries, and our magic stone subsidies are not spent, so we hired these people, what about you? Roman, you won't just go back empty-handed, will you? ”
Roman shook his head and said, "Of course not, I brought some wizard supplies, in fact, to deal with mortals, there is no need to make such a big show, right?" Wouldn't it be nice to kill it directly. ”
At this time, William put his arm around Roman's shoulder and sneered: "You don't understand Roman, we not only have to win the war, but also slap some people in the face." ”
Joss added: "That's right, you think, those old immortals in the family are only knights or big knights, and now even the big knights are under us, why don't those old immortals submit to us......
Roman probably understood, most of the people who came to be wizards were the second sons of the family, who were not valued at home all the year round, and were even often wronged.
Understanding is understanding, but Roman has a different opinion: "We wizards are high, as for being angry with mortals? Ants spit on you, just press it to death, there's no need to bother......"
The mortal family is also an ant, and it is directly slaughtered in the way.
Sen Sen was cold in his words, Joss and William smiled, although they hated some clansmen, they would not think that the family was an ant and would kill them casually.
It's like I hate people somewhere, but I don't hate the whole country.
At this time, the floating airship landed slowly, and several people tacitly ignored the differences, and boarded the airship with laughter.
A day later, the virus ecoregion, the Valley of Blood.
Roman stepped out of the airship and breathed in the dry air, and not far away, the towering city walls loomed, and through the billowing wind and sand, a city could be vaguely seen.
The city has a domineering name - the Court of Blood.
The virus ecological region is located in the northern part of the continent, with drought and little rain throughout the year, hot summers and cold winters, flat terrain, grassland in the east and desert Gobi in the west.
Such a climate determines the local agricultural mode based on animal husbandry, and then determines the birth of a civilization - nomadism!
In the impression of the people of the earth, the nomadic tribes live in pursuit of water and grass, have no fixed residence, and all the people are soldiers.
But in the virus ecoregion, nomadism has developed a social structure similar to that of feudalism in Western Europe.
Specifically, the tribe's pasture is fixed like farmland, because the pasture here is like a leek, and it can be cut from time to time, and the livestock do not need to live in water and grass.
The cultivation of pasture grass benefits from a key agricultural technology - walking corpse farming.
There are walking corpses everywhere, and after the death of the walking corpses, they can fertilize the grassland, nourish all things, make the plants grow better, and make the livestock fat and strong.
Therefore, herders can harvest pasture grass on a regular basis like farming, and also settle down like farmers, resulting in a population agglomeration effect, and civilization and class development with it.
After years of conquest, the Virus Ecoregion has given birth to two top-level mortal forces, namely the Blood King Court and the Bone Shattering King Court.
They occupied the only two wheat-growing areas and became more advanced agricultural civilizations, relying on the superiority of civilization and the support of sorcerers to form a dimensionality reduction blow to nomadism.
Now, William and his party landed on the outskirts of the Blood King's Court, the capital city of the Blood King's Court in the distance, but none of them planned to wander into the city, they had more important things to do.
William took out a trumpet and blew a rhythmic melody, and a moment later a troop of cavalry galloped towards them.
The cavalry consisted of about 100 men, divided into three groups, each carrying a banner, corresponding to the family crest of the William family.
William said excitedly: "Look, the family cavalry is here to pick us up!" ”
Joss on the side quipped, "How are you sure it's your own person?" What if the enemy pretends to come and intercept us? ”
William pursed his lips and said, "I don't think so, after all, the family password I played is a first-class secret, and it is not so easy to leak." ”
At this time, Roman said lightly: "There are no absolutes in the world, let's finish the password first." ”
Seeing this, William said helplessly: "Okay, since you are so cautious, then follow the rules." ”
With a wave of his hand, a mercenary of the great knightly force stepped forward, bent his bow and arrow, and shot it into the sky, just in time for an arrow.
William shouted, "Stop! Please identify yourself! According to the rules of the steppe, dismount and obey the command, if you don't obey, we will use lethal force! ”
The hundred or so cavalry stopped, and one of the cavalrymen slowly dismounted, stepped forward, and said:
"I'm the leader of the third squad of the Sauron family's patriarch's personal guard, Leiton, and I'm here to welcome the young master back!"
"The password is; Black Hawk Battle Banner Pride. ”
William replied: "It's up to us to smash!" ”
After speaking, William said excitedly: "What! He's real! Come here! Welcome back your young master! ”
The password is right, and neither Roman nor Joss can refute it, but Roman has a bad premonition in his heart.
At this moment, Roman suddenly thought of something and ordered: "Chip! Perception amplified! ”
Immediately after, he smelled a strong smell of blood and immediately exclaimed, "William, there is something wrong with them!" ”
