"Nolan, you're not...... Recruiting alchemy apprentices? ”

In Russ's goldsmithing workshop, Aisha covered her mouth in shock as she glanced at the girl with a broken leg who had been moved into the house by Nolan.

Having lived in Uptown all her life, Aisha had never seen a girl so badly injured.

It was as if a puppet had accidentally broken her slender legs, but the girl in front of her was not a puppet, she was a living person, and the bandages on her lower body had already been stained with blood, and the deep dark red made her a little dizzy.

"She's a knight, it's a pity to leave it alone like this, I'm trying to see if I can save her."

Nolan said in a deep voice, "Aisha, can you come over and help?" ”

His serious expression made Aisha mistakenly think that the girl in front of him was still on the verge of death, how could he still say no words, and nodded again and again: "I can do it, you must let me help!" ”

It was much easier to have someone to help, and the two first helped the girl take off her bloodstained clothes and armor, clean her body, and then helped her re-bandage and treat her wounds, and fed her a recovery potion.

After all this, it was noon, and although the girl's face was still pale, it had already looked much better.

Aisha volunteered to go out and bring lunch, leaving Nolan and the girl in the empty room.

"This room is for you to use for the time being."

Nolan found a chair and sat on the edge of the bed, "Calm down, huh?" Tell me about you. ”

After going through the ups and downs, the girl lying on the hospital bed has stabilized a lot, although I don't know if Nolan can really help her connect her legs, but now she can only rely on him.

"My name is Yuna Aska...... "After sorting out her thoughts, the girl slowly confessed her life experience.

Yuna Aska, although she was born in Ganlin Village, a rural area in Linfeng City, showed a knight's cultivation talent when she was a child, and was sent to Linfeng City to live very early.

After growing up to the age of entering the school, she went to the Linfeng Knight Academy for further study, and officially obtained the knight badge at the age of eleven, and her excellent cultivation talent is also the top existence in the entire Knight Academy.

This year, at the age of sixteen, she has become a fifth-order knight and is a prospective graduate of the Knight Academy.

During her time in school, she won the appreciation of the Baihat family of the City Lord's Mansion of Linfeng City with her outstanding performance, and as soon as she graduated, she could immediately be incorporated into the personal guard of the City Lord's Mansion, which can be described as a bright future.

But there are unforeseen circumstances, and two days ago news came from outside the city, and the grassland people outside the city began to harass the border of Linfeng City, and many people have been looted and slaughtered.

Worried about the safety of her relatives in her hometown, Yuna prepared to go out of the city to pick up the family members of Ganlin Village to the city, but she never thought that this trip would disrupt all her life plans.

A steppe army raided the village of Ganlin, and Yuna single-handedly fought the invaders in a final battle.

However, the leader of this army was extremely strong, even though her fifth-order strength was already at the top of the Knight Academy, she was still suppressed and powerless.

It was also in this battle that she was cut off her legs and barely escaped by the horse, but none of the family members and other villagers in Ganlin Village ran away.

Recalling the hellish scene of yesterday, the faces of her family, the corpses of the villagers, and the burning fires were still vivid, Yuna was speechless for a moment, and her fingers turned white.

"What is the strength of the leader of that unit?" Nolan silently listened to the girl's story and asked.

Yuna said in a low voice: "His strength is above me, even the instructors in the academy who are also fifth-order knights have never put so much pressure on me, I'm afraid that his strength has reached the sixth order." ”

The level of transcendent is divided into one to nine levels, of which the sixth order is a threshold, as long as you break through to the sixth order, you can be called a high-level transcendent, and your strength will be qualitatively improved.

Nolan touched his chin: "Since his strength is much higher than yours, and the other party is still a horse nation who is good at chasing battles, have you ever thought about a question-

"Why can you survive when there is such a huge difference in strength?"

This seems to be an ordinary question, but it is like a sharp sword piercing the girl's heart, tearing off her last dignity, and making her face the most unspeakable truth.

Yuna lowered her head and was silent for a long time before she slowly spoke: "Because they don't intend to kill me."

"They left a living mouth, and they cut off the living mouth's legs, taught the living mouth that it could never work, so as to humiliate the Roland Empire, and asked me to bring a message to the city of Peak.

"They said: Tell the Imperials that the La Buses have come to reclaim their homeland."

Yes, she is the only living person in Ganlin Village, and she is still alive not because she has the ability to escape, but because the grassland people deliberately used her to provoke Linfeng City and humiliate the Roland Empire.

As a knight who values honor and integrity, there is nothing more shameful than that.

However, those steppe people are obviously invaders, but they say that they are recovering their hometown?

Nolan frowned and thought about it, and quickly turned a piece of the history of the Roland Empire out of his mind.

Seventy-seven years ago, the Eden Continent was still in the Warring States Period, until the "Sage" Roland was born, leading his army to level the Eden Continent with the momentum of Qin sweeping Liuhe, integrating all the human forces and lands into the territory of the Roland Empire.

At this point, the whole world was the territory of the Roland Empire, and the steppe people were also defeated by Roland I at that time, and they were driven away from their homeland, and saw that the city of the Roland people was built on their grassland, and that city was called Linfeng City.

Due to the strength and prestige of Roland I, they only hibernated silently until Roland I died of illness a year ago, and the gap and hatred that had been suppressed and buried before were rekindled.

Now within the empire, the eldest prince and the second prince are fighting for the throne, and there is no spare force to send troops to suppress the rebellion.

It was this opportunity that the steppe people seized the opportunity to raise the anti-flag, wanting to regain the land they had lost decades ago.

That's a ......

Nolan shook his head, this level of fighting was not something he should be thinking about now, and instead said, "In any case, it is an indisputable fact that they plundered and killed our compatriots.

"You are the only spark in Ganlin Village, you have to live well. They will soon realize how wrong the decision was to keep you alive in the first place. ”

"Well, I've figured it out." Yuna whispered, "I'm not going to die, I'm going to live." On the day of avenging them, I will cut off the heads of the steppe people with my own hands and sacrifice my family with their blood. ”

Nolan saw a slight flame in the girl's blue eyes, and he knew he had succeeded.

It doesn't matter if this flame is a survival instinct or a thirst for revenge, he will cultivate this fire with his own hands into a natural disaster that can consume everything, helping him clear all obstacles in his path.

"Bang bang bang-"

A violent knock on the door of the alchemy workshop interrupted the conversation between the two, and Nolan walked out with a frown.

"Our shop closes today...... It looks like the two adults are not here to do business. ”

Opening the main entrance of the workshop, Nolan saw a carriage parked on the street, accompanied by several servant guards, and then two black-robed alchemists stepped down from the carriage.

Both wore a badge on their left chest, symbolizing the "Alchemist", with a black Ouroboros wrapped in runes of the four elements symbolizing alchemy: earth, water, fire, and wind.

Noren knew one of them, a member of the board of directors of the Alchemy Society, who was remembered as Wilson.

Two days ago, the alchemist Rasti was killed by a mysterious mage in his alchemy workshop, which alarmed the city guards, the mage tower, and the alchemy society.

And Wilson in front of him is the representative director sent by the Alchemy Society to be in charge of this matter.

Initially, as the sole survivor of the Russ Gold Workshop, Nolan became the biggest suspect in the murder, but that night he cleared his name for the simple reason that night:

The person in charge of the Mage Tower surveyed the scene, believing that the alchemist Rasti died from the spell "Burst Fireball", and that Noren was not a non-master, not even a transcendent, so naturally it could not be his hand.

"Lord Wilson, what else are you doing this time?" Nolan looked surprised.

Wilson, who always had a serious face, said, "It's about the division of Rasti's estate, and this alchemy workshop was originally established by Rasti with the financial support of the Alchemy Society. ”

"Now that Rasti is dead, the Society is ready to reclaim the workshop. This time I have come to tell you that you will pack your bags and leave here by noon tomorrow. ”
