Chapter 392: Ritual (Medium)

When Li Ang sat in the meeting room to relax, a sense of sleepiness gradually came up.

In the past ten days, he has been running all the way, and has experienced several major battles in a row, all of which are extremely fierce, and there are few opportunities to relax and rest, and he is always facing the most powerful enemy, and the consumption of the body is even stricter than it seems on the surface. This is just one of them, as a leader, Li Ang is also under a lot of psychological pressure - how serious the situation will be, how to go next, whether the body of his companions can hold on, all these things that need to be considered are testing him, a young man with little experience.

When the continuous things are in front of him, Li Ang can always maintain a strong mental state, but once he has nothing to do and completely relaxes, he immediately feels the sleepiness that wells up from the depths of his heart.

However, for a physique like Leon, as long as he sleeps well, he should be able to recover as before, and having a continuous battle experience against a strong enemy will benefit him a lot. If you encounter a similar situation in the future, even if you are not as good as the soldiers who have been on the battlefield for a long time, at least you can do it with ease and will not be tense anymore.

That's how people grow up little by little, don't they?

Leon half lay on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, relaxed, and relieved his physical and mental exhaustion in this sleepy state, and at the same time sighed in his heart: "When will I be able to completely settle down and truly enjoy the ideal state of life?"

As soon as this thought came to him, the young man sighed to himself, for he knew that, in the present situation, this ideal was getting farther and farther away from him......

Now that Campbell's troubles of the northern mountain people have been completely eliminated, and he has brought more than 500 people to Leon, including 200 young men who can participate in the battle at any time, and even four third-order powerhouses, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

The border troubles in the south have been repeatedly repulsed, and although the monster commotion in the Eastern Black Forest has fluctuated, it will show effect after the trade zone is established and begins to operate steadily, and if there are no special circumstances, I believe that the monsters in the forest will slowly calm down.

It looks like Campbell's shape will get better as a result, but that's just how it looks.

There is no trace of the murderer of the family's demise, and there is no clue to speak of until now, there is such a group of people hiding in the shadows, like an invisible spike flowing in the veins, it is completely impossible to judge its location and speed, and it is impossible to tell when it will flow into the heart to give a fatal blow.

And there are all kinds of indications that there is a large and mysterious organization working on a plan, and Campbell is likely to be part of the plan, as evidenced by the organized and planned invasion of the Indigenous people. However, apart from the fact that No. 23 was killed in the underground cavern, and No. 17, who was hiding somewhere in the Pale Mountains, Leon knew nothing about this organization, let alone anything about this plan, so he could only wait passively, and could not take any initiative to avoid the danger.

Compared to these two forces, Leonardo, the vampire who finally disappeared without warning, and the people who rescued him seem relatively insignificant.

Of course, these are all external enemies, and the troubles that Leon will face include enemies within the kingdom.

The Minister of the Interior, the top of the Border Guard, the forces behind Cork and his party, and the nobles with whom his grandfather had a grudge were all hostile to the young lord, and although they could not take overt actions or use the army, they were not to be underestimated.

Li Ang frowned slightly, sighing in his heart.

“...... Your sister, Lao Tzu obviously wants to live a comfortable and comfortable life, how can these troubles come up one after another! Is it to compensate for the rhythm of lying down for four years in the previous life?"

The young man felt the pressure and was in a bad mood.

At this moment, a thin blanket suddenly appeared in front of him, not to mention the mountain people who were whispering behind him, and even Eric, who was sitting on the sidelines and didn't want to disturb his rest, didn't notice.

After the blanket appeared, it paused in mid-air, and then slowly put it on Leon, looking rather weird.

Leon knew what was going on, because Melissa's concealment effect could not completely hide the trail in his perception, and the little girl ran away as if she was frightened after carefully doing this, not even daring to turn her head back, which made the young man's heart warm and a little funny at the same time.

"This little girl, when did you learn to be so considerate?"

Remembering that when Melissa first joined, although the little girl was still compatible with the others, she was a little afraid of Leon, probably because of the scolding at the beginning and the two kicks that gave Melissa a deep impression, and at that time Melissa was still wild, and now when she saw Leon as if she was asleep, she took the initiative to cover him with a thin blanket, which was an unexpected change.

For some reason, Melissa's seemingly small gesture made Leon's pressure disappear just now - these companions who cared for each other like family had pinned their ideals and beliefs on Leon, for their trust, for their "ideals" of eating and sleeping and eating, and now the troubles they were facing were not a problem, right?

The young man suddenly brightened up, and after a while, another thought arose.

"Miss Melissa is thin and weak, and her figure is really good...... I guess Caterina isn't much worse, right?"

Melissa's petite appearance always reminded Leon of this contrast, so he habitually diverged his mind after putting aside the pressure and began to think about what was wrong.

However, Eric's voice rang in his ears very "well-timed".

"Lord, wake up, it's almost time. ”

......

Eric always felt that the young lord's eyes were a little unkind when he just looked at him, but it didn't look like he had disturbed his sleep, so he was very confused for a while.

"Lord, I suppose you should go find Miss Caterina first, and then come with her?" said the gangster leader cautiously.

By this time, most of the people had arrived, and the mountain people had gathered around the outer circle early, whispering something, while Red and Menshak had gotten together to discuss eagerly, and it seemed that they had gotten along well.

The mercenaries were all present, except for the four regimental commanders who sat in the last row and waited for the ceremony to begin, most of their subordinates were scattered around to serve as symbolic guards, and some were specially selected to stand aside and temporarily act as waiters for a drinking party.

Kaka also came, and he sat in the last row with a plate of dessert as if no one was there, and although it was very unimpressive, everyone present tacitly ignored it.

Thora and Dan were sent out to inform the people in the Great Forest of their return, so this time there were no elves involved, and other than that, the three maidens Katerina, Erin and Sophia did not appear.

At this moment several more figures appeared on the manor avenue, it was the Earl of Donne, Viscount Peg, and the young baron, who were accompanied by Jeff and walked over chatting.

"Earl Leon, the arrangement here is quite good, even in the royal capital of Chester, it can be called a very formal occasion," said Earl Donne, who took a few quick steps to meet the young man, and smiled.
