Chapter 352: Mill Yard Area
"But the legend of heresy has never been broken, the city defense army will clean up and search every once in a while in order to clean up the place, so as not to erode the mill area, the heresy has been dealt with a lot, and the casualties of the city defense soldiers are also very heavy, plus the heretics seem to recognize it, and it is always endless."
After speaking, the knight brother looked at the apprentice knights around him, "To be honest, it is a bit unruly for you people to come. ”
"May I ask my brother, I'm a middle-level knight, how should I position myself in our city defense army?" A knight asked reflectively after listening.
"It's almost the bottom level of the ordinary city defense soldiers." The knight brother glanced at the knight and said, "But don't worry, in the mill area, even the top powerhouses at the captain level are the same as yours. ”
"Ugh." The middle-level knight was choked enough when he heard this, and he thought that his brother would praise him.
At this moment, a woman dressed in a gorgeous costume came out of the opposite street, and under the light of the candle lamp, her face exuded a noble temperament.
"Ahh Several academy knights couldn't help but exclaim when they saw that the old brother said to do it.
"Ahh The elder brother couldn't help frowning when he saw the expressions of a group of knights, "The one who travels alone in the dark night must be a witch, and it will be cleared immediately after discovering it, if you want her to get close, once the magic is released, we won't even have a chance to resist." ”
"Are you sure she's a witch? Don't even need to be cross-examined? The mid-level knight was surprised.
"During curfews, especially in the mill area, she is guilty of daring to walk in the middle of the night, whether she is a witch or not." The knight brother said, "Of course it's better not to be a witch, you see that she is dressed quite gorgeously and looks like a noblewoman, and a guy like this who is usually high-spirited rarely has a chance to kill in normal times." ”
"But we're not here yet, are you sure you're a knight?" Intermediate knights are crazy, as a knight, but swear to defend the noblewoman.
"I am, I was canonized when I was the squad leader." The knight brother was slightly stunned when he heard this, "Oh, you're saying that I don't conform to the Eight Virtues, right?" Okay, the next time I meet a lady, how about sending you to interrogate her? ”
"Okay." The intermediate knight nodded in agreement, but this result made the knight brother stunned.
As the guards of the city marched toward the mill yard, passing the noble lady as they passed by, he was about to take a look, but he glanced at the noble lady from a distance, only to find that there was no blood on the ground.
"Did you find anything?" The Ice Fruit Knight slowed down and asked as he came to his side.
"It's not good for the corpse to come out of the road, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful tonight." Teaser said.
"Didn't the corpse be killed by the knight brother?" Bingguo was stunned when she heard this, "There is still such a saying, I knew that we would go over after he shot an arrow just now, and she may not be dead at that time." ”
"I'm afraid this patrol won't be that simple, I suspect someone is secretly intervening." The corners of his mouth twitched when he heard this, "Don't stay too far away from me, if there is danger, I can still take care of one or two." ”
A group of people walked through the streets and alleys, encountering several teams of guards patrolling elsewhere, and soon entered an area with no street lights, the mill area.
From afar, you can see that the main road into the mill area is brightly lit, and in other areas there are no sound street lights, the lighting here is surprisingly good.
"Is it because it's dangerous to patrol at night here, so the imperial capital has put street lights on the streets of the entire district?" He asked immediately, because the knight brother has a lot of experience, everyone subconsciously regarded him as the captain.
"Can I say that the lamplighters of the empire dare not come here? These streetlights are heretical. The knight said aloud, pointing to the fire in the large clearing at the corner of the street, "including there, I can guarantee that there will be no such thing during the day." ”
"It seems to be a magic circle." He said as he looked at the firelight.
"Would you like to go over and have a look?" The knight asked.
When they came to the fire, they saw that this was an inverse pentagram array composed of bonfires, and on the side of the formation there were two dolls with hideous faces, leaning on several clay pots.
"Stand back." He said to Bingguo and Kaipan, and handed over the war horse to them, and then walked cautiously towards the wood, but he didn't want the face of one of the dolls to turn black, and then with a bang, the heavenly spirit cover flew up, spewing out a large amount of black water.
"Huh~" The black water fell like a fountain, igniting a fire, and then the barrel behind the doll burst, and a large amount of fire oil flowed, forming a sea of fire in an instant after connecting to the ground.
Running out of the sea of fire at great speed, with the scorched smoke of the military uniform, he rode his war horse and led the ice fruit and the opening plate back to the team, then looked at the knight brother and said, "That's a trap." ”
"The blind can see it, but fortunately you cracked it." The old brother looked back at the knights and said, "Think about the scene where we just walked there and turned into a sea of fire, and we would have lifted my spirits when we entered the field in a while!" ”
The knights responded sparsely, and the sudden flames made them feel fear, and the knight brother also sensed their feelings, so he comforted, "But don't worry too much, these fire oils are of high value, and it won't be cost-effective to deal with us with more advanced potions." ”
Everyone was silent, and suddenly a scream came from behind, and they hurriedly looked back, and saw a figure in the darkness with a big bow in his hand, glanced at this side, turned his head and disappeared into the street behind.
"Don't chase it, he deliberately let us see it." The knight brother turned his head to look in the direction of the vanishing and narrowed his eyes, then looked at the injured knight and said, "The injured will heal themselves and guard the entrance with a group of people, and the others will follow me in." ”
The ignition oil began to dissipate after a few minutes of burning in the street without combustibles, and all the knights entered the street except for those who remained behind, only to see that a dozen or so skeletons glowing green soon gathered in the darkness of the intersection in front of the street, and they also carried a huge banner with a skull.
"Who are those?" The knights asked the knight brother while guarding the roofs on both sides with crossbows.
"Forest of Bones, a recalcitrant sect entrenched in the millyard area." The knight brother looked at the panicked knights around him and said, "Don't be afraid, they are just a group of refugees who escaped from Calder, put up some bone racks and pretend to be ghosts, and a single charge can kill them." ”
"Well, don't be afraid, may God be with me." The knights prayed with crosses drawn on their chests, and looked at the moving skeletons with a little courage.
"Twenty of you will charge in a wave, and if there is an ambush at the junction, we will greet us with crossbows." Seeing that the knights were in a calm mood, the elder brother said, "We will switch places when the next wave encounters heretics." ”
Hearing this, a group of knights slowly walked out of the station, and when they saw this, they also led the ice fruit and the opening plate and walked out.
