Chapter 41: A Squad of Four

After a while, Li Ang laughed dryly, "It's okay, don't mention the past, I don't think these problems are all on you." ”

"Then do you mean that he still has a part of the reason?" asked Sophia in a whisper as she hid behind Leon.

"Whether it's or not," Li Ang waved his hand and said with a righteous face, "We won't take it to heart!"

At the same time, he secretly thought with some uncertainty, "I came through here, and I should be able to overcome this kind of 'where to demolish' bad luck, right?"

Regardless, it's something to celebrate that the small team is starting to grow in size and strength, and Jeff is especially happy, although there is a slight hint of uneasiness hidden in this feeling.

"Where are we going next, and will Brother Leon still know the location of some of the ruins?" asked Sophia with an expectant expression, obviously satisfied with the results of the trip.

Li Ang is helpless, you are like a cabbage everywhere, although there are still two monster distribution points that have been found on the map, but one is too far away, and the other is red on it to represent the dangerous color at a glance, and it is clear that with the current strength, it is to die.

"We've been through too many battles in the past few days, we need to find a place to rest, what do you have to build?"

Jeff looked at the casual reactions of the other two girls, and had to think about a few place names.

Li Ang shook his head repeatedly, "These are too close, to be honest, my current situation is a bit special, and I can't continue to stay in the Sver Kingdom." ”

Jeff wisely didn't ask much, paced in place and pondered, Caterina was a little puzzled, approached Leon and asked, "Is it dangerous? Your grandfather's friends, other nobles, or the king will not be able to shelter you, but will leave?"

Leon nodded silently.

"Well, no matter what you decide, I'll keep my promise. ”。

"Thank you," Leon looked at the knight girl's clear eyes, and could only reply with these two words.

"By the way, there are two places to choose, one is a little further away, is the border city of April of the Caesar Empire, it is the trade center of the Empire, and there is a constant flow of people coming and going, so it will be safe to stay here for a while. The other, a few days from here across the border and down the Pale Mountains, is called the Grey Town, on the edge of the realm of the chaotic capital of Brenda. ”

"City of Chaos?" Leon searched in his mind for the unfamiliar place name.

Seeing that the others had obviously not heard, Jeff explained it to them roughly.

The four kingdoms of the Dark Realm, the Caesar Empire, the Kingdom of Sver, and the Alliance of Mercantile City-States form a large blank space around the Pale Mountains, which is called the Land of Chaos, and Brenda stands on this land, so it is also known as the Capital of Chaos. It has not been in existence for a long time, but it has developed rapidly in just a few decades, and it has become a gray buffer zone between these countries.

There are twelve relatively large forces in the City of Chaos, and the entire city is controlled by a council composed of members of these organizations. The current Speaker, the first witch of the House of Soothsayers, the master of the fifth-order professional element, and the "withered flower" Ms. Christel, who has half embodied the power of the rules, is the current de facto ruler.

The Grey Town is located on the edge of the Mayhem Lands and is a medium-sized town closest to the Kingdom of Sver.

After listening to the introduction, Leon noticed one of the names, Krystelle, this lady's list of titles is shocking, it seems that she is already a legend in the upper echelon of the overall strength of the mainland.

"Sounds like this place is dangerous?" Leon asked.

"Yes, it is said that the former Land of Chaos was full of robbers, murderers, down-and-out nobles and even degenerate clergy, and with the completion of Brenda, they also became official inhabitants of it. However, from the very beginning, the parliament has formulated a code of laws to restrain these people, after all, those big people are also for themselves, and the more people enter the city, the more benefits they can bring, so in recent years, it has been much safer than before under the constraints of the code. ”

"That kind of place......" Leon glanced at Sophia, who was listening, and said, "Isn't it okay if Sophia and Caterina go?"

"I've stayed in Gray Town for a while with the previous mercenary group, and I've seen some clergy mingle, so it doesn't seem like much of a problem. ”

Leon fell into deep thought, it sounded like the Gray Town was a little dangerous, but relatively speaking, there should be more opportunities to improve his strength, and although April in the Caesar Empire was safe, he always felt that something was missing. Do I have this kind of thought, is it actually dark in my psyche, or is there a so-called belligerent factor hidden in my blood?

Before he could finish his self-examination, the knight girl made a decision.

"Let's go to Greytown," Caterina said in front of everyone's gaze, "Leon will have to be trained enough in a year's time. ”

"Then you ......," Leon doubted that a female knight with strong faith would cause big trouble in that kind of place.

"Rest assured, I'm not the kind of person whose sense of justice doesn't matter when it spreads," Caterina seemed to read the thoughts in his mind.

Eventually, the goal was set in Gray Town, and the four-member team quickly rested and set out on the road west at night.

"Am I a master and apprentice who traveled west to learn the scriptures?" Li Ang, a traverser from the earth, couldn't help but think.

......

The summer night finally cooled down, the night breeze carried a slight chill, and the four young people enjoyed a rare relaxation.

"The night sky is so beautiful every day, and the old man said that there is some kind of secret hidden in it!" Sophia looked up, completely ignoring her feet.

Leon also looked up, the night sky of this world gave him a deep feeling, on the whole, the five largest range of pure colors - red, blue, white, green, black, and then these colors were mixed together to form a mottled variegation, filling all the ranges except the five pure colors, in his opinion this is the result of the sun's rays refracted from the other side, is there any other reason for this?

But also, anything can happen in this world, which is very different from cognition.

"From what I've read in a certain book," Jeff said in the opening remarks, "the sky seems to contain the mystery of the rules of power, which is why it took a long time from the gods to the current doctrine of power and power. ”

"You're really a studious mercenary...... Li Angyan said insincerely.

"This ...... It's just a little more knowledgeable," Jeff shrugged his shoulders.

Several people looked at him suspiciously, and Jeff endured it for a while, and finally said: "Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if you know, I used to be a studious nobleman, and then the family property was seized by a vicious relative, and I was down, it's as simple and vulgar." ”

Caterina had been walking at the front of the line, and she didn't look back, and threw a sentence, "Then you and the person next to you should have a common language." ”

"Oh, have you been robbed of your property by a malevolent relative, friend, or somebody?" asked the down-and-out nobleman Jeff happily, "Let's exchange experiences with each other." ”

Leon thought about it carefully, and then took this opportunity to truthfully explain what happened to him, especially the scene where the black light in his memory destroyed the castle, of course, the fact that he was a traverser was so terrifying was skipped.

The purpose of his doing this is to let his teammates know what level of existence his enemy is before leaving the Kingdom of Sver, and on this basis, decide whether to go down with him, he knows that the road ahead is very bumpy, and if it is not for the mutual trust and understanding of the companions, they will definitely not go further.

Jeff whistled, "It's pretty much the same, but it's clear that you're much stronger than I am, and it looks like I'm going to have to think about whether it's necessary to get my stuff back?"

After saying this, he fell into thought, and seemed to be weighing the feasibility of returning to his hometown.

Caterina walked steadily through the mountains, her ponytail like a beating elf in the moonlight, and when Jeff finished speaking, she didn't look back, and said directly: "The powerful enemy has determined that your path of revenge is a long way to go, but please don't be discouraged, if one year is not enough, I will go back and apply to the knight chief for an extension of the travel period." ”

The knight girl gestured, and Sophia followed closely behind Leon and waved her small fist at his side to cheer him up, using this gesture to show that she would not abandon her teammates.

The expressions of encouragement and comfort from the young people who had experienced many battles together did not mention how difficult the road ahead would be, which moved Leon's heart.

"It's really inspiring...... he muttered to himself, his steps becoming more steady, as if he no longer felt strange and lonely after leaving the world where he had lived for more than twenty years.
