Chapter 350: The Enemy Meets

Outside the baron's mansion, the cavalry crowded the gates, but they remained vigilant. Montoya only glanced at it, and reminded Chen Daolin in a low voice, this kind of formation, it is obvious that the other party is ready to rush and kill at any time.

Baron Pierre's face was a little complicated, and he saw the man sitting on a black horse at the front of the cavalry.

Chen Daolin also noticed this person, the standard magician's robe, the high cloak hat In fact, Chen Daolin has never understood why the magicians of the Roland Empire like to pull the brim of the cloak and hat so low, and always cover their faces because they are too ugly?

The two or three remaining guards in the baron's palace seemed to be trying to keep up with their duties, but looking at the magician, they quickly backed away.

The courtyard gate of the mansion was opened, and the cavalry soon poured into the courtyard.

As can be seen from the style of their standard equipment, these cavalry were supposed to be local garrisons. Although the Roland Empire has been peaceful for a hundred years, this place is not too far from the imperial capital, so the armament of the local garrison has not been relaxed, and these cavalry seem to be quite well-trained, at least after rushing into the courtyard, they have a good basis for advancing and retreating, and they quickly divided their men and outflanked them along both sides of the mansion.

It can be expected that the horses and carriages of Chen Daolin and others stopped in the courtyard, and they thought that they were the target of these cavalry.

Most of the cavalry did not dismount, and they did not put down their sabers when they sat on their horses, but maintained a fighting posture with a fierce eye.

Chen Daolin glanced at the baron, Pierre's face was very ugly, and he said in a low voice: "This...... Come to think of it, it was probably my younger brother who learned about the other courtyard and was worried about my safety, so he brought the army here......"

Chen Daolin was generous, waved his hand, and smiled with relief: "It's okay." I can understand it, Lord Baron, and I think the cavalry is coming for me. ”

Pierre gritted his teeth, seemed to have made some trade-offs, and said resolutely: "No matter what, you saved my family of three in the other courtyard, otherwise, those bandit mercenaries are afraid that they will cut us, so ......"

"You don't have to say that. Those people were here for me, so I'm causing you trouble. ”

"In any case, you come to my house, you are my guest! It is not the demeanor of an aristocrat to see a guest in trouble and stay out of trouble!" said Baron Pierre, resolutely.

"Mr. Darling......" Ade stood behind Chen Daolin and said in a low voice: "These cavalry must have been outflanked behind the house, we can take advantage of the fact that they are still unstable, and rush out directly and take a few horses." As long as you rush out of the compound, you still have a chance to ......"

Chen Daolin turned around, glanced at Ade, and sighed faintly: "Outside the courtyard is a wilderness plain. Race horses against a group of Imperial professional cavalry on the plains?"

Ade's face flushed, and he was a little unwilling, and said in a low voice: "So...... We're going to hold on to this house! With Montoya as the backbone, we're going to be able to guard the gate! This house is built very strongly. It's all made of bluestone, and when I think it was built in the first place, it was built with military use in mind!!"

"In the absence of foreign aid. Stick to the ground?" Chen Daolin glanced at Ade: "The other party doesn't need to attack, just cut off the water source, and in less than two days, we will have to obediently get out and kneel and lick." I really have some doubts about what kind of education you received in church. ”

Seeing that Ade seemed to want to say something, Chen Daolin couldn't help but sigh: "I said, you are a priest, don't think about fighting and killing all day long, practice your light healing technique well, and being an excellent nurse is a promising career." Speaking of this, he tilted his head and gestured to Montoya: "What about you, Montoya, you are the expert, what do you think?"

Montoya looked indifferent, frowned and looked at Chen Daolin before shaking his head: "Darling, you already have an idea, why do you have to ask me?"

After hesitating for a moment, Montoya glanced at Ade, who looked aggrieved, couldn't help sighing, and whispered to Chen Daolin: "That...... After all, he is young, if you think he is not thoughtful, you can teach slowly, and you don't need to, you don't need to be like this...... So ......"

Chen Daolin smiled, patted Ade's shoulder, and said softly: "Okay, Ade, you obediently go to the corner to draw circles and play." ”

With that, he straightened his clothes, left the window, and strode towards the door of the hall.

The baron's face was a little pale, but he still gritted his teeth and followed, catching up with a few steps behind Chen Daolin, he smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "That...... Master Darling, you ...... in a moment You're not going to burn down my ancestral home, are you?"

Chen Daolin laughed and glanced at the baron: "Don't worry, you can't fight." ”

......

Ade's face turned red, standing at the window staring out, he had already nervously taken off his longbow, and also felt a sharp arrow to put on the bowstring, and glanced at Montoya dissatisfied: "Your Excellency...... Why are you so submissive to this Darling? I think this guy is very unreliable! He is obviously wanted by the emperor! Now we are all blocked here by the officials and soldiers, but ...... What can we do? Besides, you and I have special identities, and we are members of the church! What should we do if we really openly fight with the officials and soldiers and involve the church? Now that the situation is special and we are experiencing a great change, the temple must not have a head-on conflict with the officials at this time! If something happens to you and me here, we will be sinners of the temple!"

Montoya sighed, glanced at Ade with some disappointment, and frowned, "Okay, you can say a few words." ”

Ade wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and although he was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to stop talking, just staring nervously out of the window, but he was quietly looking for the best angle and position to release his arrows in case of a fight.

Outside the hall, Chen Daolin and Baron Pierre were already standing on the steps, and the sabers in the hands of a group of cavalrymen in front of them seemed to be transparent in Chen Daolin's eyes, and he just looked at the officer who led the team with a smile.

Intuitively, Chen Daolin noticed that there was something unusual in the officer's eyes.

This guy seems to be very strong-looking, and his beard is also very powerful, but his eyes are constantly flickering. After making eye contact with Chen Daolin a few times, a strange smile appeared on the corner of the officer's mouth.

The baron had already spoken first. He seemed to recognize this officer leading the team, and with a strong smile on his face, he took two steps and laughed loudly: "Your Excellency Martin, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you bring so many people to my house today?"

The officer casually held his helmet on his horse, pressed it, saluted, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, we have received a report that a gang of thieves has come to a nearby town. And we received another report from the townspeople that there had been a regrettable robbery in your courtyard, but by the time my men arrived at the courtyard, your courtyard had been burned down, and we only found some nameless corpses, and it happened that your younger brother, Master Quinn, was a guest in the garrison barracks, and he followed us all the way, and he was worried about your safety, which is not ......."

The mage had slowly jumped off his horse. Step by step, he walked to the bottom of the steps, and stared at the baron carefully several times: "Brother, are you okay?"

The baron forced his composure and nodded: "Yiqiē is fine!"

He hesitated for a moment and added, "There was indeed a group of bandits rushing in to rob in the courtyard last night. But fortunately, there is a friend here who took care of those bandits, so it's over. I don't think it would be necessary to work for the local garrison to do this, as for the bodies of the dead bandits. Or bury it, or ask Lord Martin to bring it back and carefully screen it, maybe there are some fugitives or something. It's just time to claim the bounty. Ah, yes, Master Martin, I can give you a written proof. ”

Quinn stood in front of the baron, but he silently took off his hat.

Chen Daolin noticed that the magician who took off his hat was far younger than he imagined from his appearance, he looked like he was in his thirties at most, his skin was pale, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of the baron, but his hair was gray, especially the eyes, which were more white and less black, and looked a little weird.

These eyes were already firmly fixed on him, and as soon as Chen Daolin's heart moved, he heard this Quinn say coldly in a hoarse voice: "I know you." ”

"Oh?" Chen Daolin smiled.

"Hmm. Quinn nodded solemnly, his eyes cold: "I saw you once from afar in the imperial capital. You probably don't know that when you started that new course at the Academy of Magic, I used to sit in on it, but there were so many people that you probably wouldn't notice me. ”

Hearing these two words of dialogue outside the courtyard, Ade, who was hiding in the hall, had already had his heart beating faster, and he had quietly pulled the bowstring, and the arrow was aimed at that Quinn!

(It's over, it's recognized!Damn, it looks like it's going to start in a while!)

"Oh, is it? Chen Daolin actually nodded with a big grin: "During that time, many people went to audit, and there were too many people sitting in the audience, and I couldn't recognize everyone." ”

Saying that, he actually took the initiative to take a few steps, just walked down the steps unguarded, and actually walked in front of the cavalry officer named Martin, his body was already exposed to the attack range of the saber, Chen Daolin just spread his hands, looked up at the Martin, and said with a smile: "This gentleman, those people in the other courtyard were all killed by me, and they have nothing to do with the baron." But...... All the guests at last night's banquet can testify that those guys were the bandits who broke in and tried to rob, and they were armed with sharp weapons and took many guests hostage. According to the imperial decree, armed trespass into a nobleman's house and rob it, as the master, he has the right to resist by any means, including killing the intruder, this is the power given to the nobles by the laws of the empire, am I right?"

Martin bowed his head: "You're right, that's what the Imperial Law is written, so...... We have no intention of pursuing the deaths of those people. ”

Chen Daolin smiled, he actually smiled very friendly: "Look, I am also a friend of Lord Baron, I just accompanied Lord Baron back home, you rushed here, I am deeply pleased that the local garrison responded so quickly! A soldier like you who abides by his duties is really a model for the imperial team, I see that you are running all the way, and you should not have eaten breakfast at this time, right? Since everyone has come here, I think that in the name of Lord Baron Pierre's hospitality, I should not be stingy in entertaining guests." ”

As he spoke, he looked back at Baron Pierre: "I say, Lord Baron, at this time, as a personable nobleman. Should we invite such a loyal officer of the Empire, Mr. Martin, to have a hearty meal?"

When he turned his head, he seemed to unconsciously expose the back of his head to Martin, especially the snow-white neck under the back of the person's head, which was the most fatal thing to cut down by the saber.

At this moment, even Martin himself was in a trance, he subconsciously touched the saber in his hand, but for some reason, the knife in his hand did not dare to really swing out.

Baron Pierre had already coughed vigorously, and quickly said, "You...... You are right! Your Excellency, please dismount and come to my house to rest. Hurry so early in the morning. It's not a pleasant thing, I have some good honey and some good snacks here. ”

......

"Huh, what the hell is this Darling trying to do? Is this going to trick this officer into the house and then close the door and catch turtles in the dog urn......?" But this officer is not so stupid, is he! Rashly running into the house of the other party with bad intentions? This trick is too obvious! Only fools will be fooled!"

But before Ade could finish speaking, the Martin suddenly laughed, and he actually let go of the saber in his hand, turned over and jumped off the horse neatly, stomped his feet hard, and stretched his waist. "Well, thank you for your hospitality!" We have been on the road all night, and we are sleepy, so we have a good rest at your place. ”

As he spoke, he actually gave an order directly. All the cavalry dismounted, and then handed over the command to one of his deputies, and asked everyone to lead the horses to the side stables of the courtyard to drink water and replenish nourishment to rest, and he walked up the steps with such a big grin. Without any hesitation, he walked into the hall.

Ade was already stunned, and the moment Martin walked into the hall, the bow and arrow in Ade's hand were still subconsciously pointing at the other party. Fortunately, Montoya, who was beside him, reacted quickly, slapped the bow and arrow in his hand and took it behind him.

Martin seemed to deliberately not see Ade and Montoya in the hall, and his eyes widened before he smiled and said, "Lord Baron's mansion, I haven't been here for a few days, and the last time I visited, I came with Lord Garrison. ”

The baron and Chen Daolin also walked in, followed by the Quinn, who looked indifferent, just staring at Chen Daolin's back, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Soon servants came up, set up tables and chairs in the hall, and brought some food and water.

Martin glanced at the baron and seemed to be slightly apologetic: "I'm sorry, I was ordered to lead the army out of the camp, and I can't remove my armor, and I ask the baron not to be surprised." ”

After saying that, he actually took off his saber directly, put it horizontally on the table, and casually picked up the towel sent by the servant, wiped his face, and washed his hands.

Chen Daolin sat down opposite this Martin with a smile, and then actually waved to Ade and Montoya, and beckoned the two to his side.

Martin casually took two sips of water, raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Daolin, and suddenly said, "If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency should be the Darling Chen Master from the imperial capital, right?"

As soon as he heard this, Ade immediately became nervous, his hand had been retracted into his sleeve, he held a dagger tightly, and his eyes were fixed on Martin's saber on the table.

(Don't admit it, don't admit it!Don't admit it!)

Chen Daolin laughed, grabbed a piece of dim sum, took a bite hard, and said with a smile: "What you said is good, I am Darling Chen." Well...... The new Emperor Xiluo heard that he had a very heavy reward for arresting me. ”

(Actually, you just admit it so casually?!)

Ade's eyes darkened, and he only thought that this was the end! There was a large group of heavily armed cavalry outside!!

Fighting, whether it is your own side killing the official army, or your own side being killed by the official army, is a huge trouble for the church......

"Oh, sure enough, it's Your Excellency. Martin actually laughed, looked at Chen Daolin, then put down the water glass in his hand, and sighed with emotion: "I was still a little suspicious, sure enough, you are just thinking about it, if it weren't for a famous figure like you, who would be able to extinguish more than twenty armed mercenaries so lightly." Master Darling's skills are truly admirable!"

As an emperor, shouldn't you immediately jump up and draw your sword at this time, shouting such an impassioned slogan as serving the country and capturing the traitor!??)

"It's just a bunch of clowns, and one of the leaders has some old grudges with me when I was in the imperial capital. When it happened, I dealt with it. It's just that it has affected the Baron and lost a courtyard, but I will definitely make compensation for this matter, and I will never let the Baron suffer losses. ”

When Martin heard this, his expression became more and more emotional, and his tone became very sincere: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being a famous genius magician, and your Excellency is so generous, which really makes me admire! If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't drink alcohol in military affairs, I would have toasted you well, even though I was only a small officer. ”

Are you an official of the Empire! You are an official of the Empire! You are an official and soldier who eats military salaries and carries the banner of thorn flowers, and your soul is faint!!Is it because I am having auditory hallucinations? Or is it the wrong posture that I just listened to them?!) Ade is about to collapse.

Baron Pierre on the side also seemed a little sluggish, and he was stunned for a while before opening his mouth: "That...... Lord Martin, aren't you here for, not for Venerable Darling......"

When Martin heard this, he actually glanced at Chen Daolin, and the two actually laughed at the same time with a tacit understanding.

Then Martin looked at Chen Daolin with a deliberate smile: "Master Darling, what do you think? Aren't you afraid that I will come with an army to hunt you down?"

Chen Daolin shook his head: "Mr. Martin." You're also a smart person, so I don't think you need to say such ridiculous things. ”

At this time, Ade suddenly wanted to rush up and choke Martin's neck fiercely and ask this soul a few words.

But Chen Daolin's next few words made Ade completely speechless.

"Actually, it's not complicated...... Your Excellency Martin, since you have led the team, you have been to that annex. I must have seen those corpses. More than twenty heavily armed mercenaries have been transformed into corpses, well, their leader is still a mid-rank samurai, I think. You came to this town, it must have been Anthony who sent someone to the barracks to report the news, right? Anthony's strength is not weak, plus him. More than twenty mercenaries have been turned into corpses. This reason is very simple, since I have the ability to kill more than 20 mercenaries, including a mid-level strength samurai, then Lord Martin, you are only with fifty cavalry. More than twenty mercenaries and a mid-ranking samurai can't keep me, could it be that a man as smart as Lord Martin would think that he could take me down with fifty cavalry? And you saw when you saw me just now, I killed Anthony's men, but I didn't lose a single hair myself. With such a comparison of strength, I think that unless the brain is broken, I will see this situation, and I will rush forward to die regardless of it. ”

Chen Daolin said this deliberately, but stared at Martin deeply with his eyes: "Lord Martin looks very smart, not like the kind of person with a bad brain. It is necessary to make meritorious contributions to please the peak, but there is no need to fight with your life, after all, even if you are promoted and make a fortune, you must have your life to enjoy it, right? ”

Ade: (Okay, you're all smart people, I'm the one with a bad brain...... ）

Martin's expression moved, but his face became solemn: "Master Darling...... Are you so sure? Aren't you afraid that I'm the kind of person who is brainless? You only rely on this judgment to make an unguarded posture against me?

“...... Of course it's fake!" Chen Daolin sneered: "This is just an inference, if I only rely on this inference, I dare to be so lax, and I deserve to be killed." I'm really reassuring about you, it's because of it!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed at a metal brooch pinned to Martin's chest, near his heart!

"Coincidentally, I happen to know this thing. So, I don't think Mr. Martin, even if he knew who I was, would not have done anything bad to me. ”

Martin's face changed at this time, his eyes became stern, and he stared at Chen Daolin for a long time before he exhaled: "You...... Do you recognize this brooch?"

"Yes. Chen Daolin's expression also appeared a little gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "My friend...... Carman, Luo Puppy and they used to have such badges pinned to their chests. ”

......

A seemingly simple badge, the texture is only worthless copper, if the cost is concerned, it will not exceed a few copper plates. But it is clear that this simple badge. Pinned to Martin's chest, but polished, it was obvious that the owner cherished this badge very much on weekdays.

The shape of the badge is a storm vortex of cirrus clouds. This badge, Chen Daolin happens to be very familiar!

This is a special sign that once served in the elite cavalry regiment directly under the main battle of the Roland Empire, the Storm Legion!

Including Carman, Luo Puppies, and even Goth, they all served in the 1st Cavalry Regiment of the Stormwind Legion! This is also the most elite cavalry regiment in the Stormwind Legion! This badge is also an important identity symbol of the Cavalry Regiment!

This Martin is wearing such a thing. It means that he once served in the Storm Legion, and he was once a member of the most elite cavalry regiment!!

Those who can enter this cavalry regiment are all descendants and elites of the Storm Legion, old men who have been deeply branded as the Storm Legion!

Chen Daolin once heard Kaman and Luo Xiaogou inadvertently mention that anyone who wears this badge can be regarded as having the brand of the Storm Legion in their bones, and no matter where they go, they are all members of this cavalry regiment! I will be proud of myself as a cavalry regiment of the Storm Legion for the rest of my life!

......

"You're from that cavalry regiment of the Stormwind Army. Chen Daolin pointed to Martin's chest badge and said lightly: "Since I recognize this thing and know your origin, if you still want to lead troops to arrest me." If I go and ask the Emperor of Hilo for a reward, then it will not only be me blind, but Goth, Kaman. Luo puppies, they are all blind! No matter what, I still want to believe them. I believe that the person who wears this kind of badge will not do anything to arrest me and ask for a reward from Shiloh after knowing what happened in the imperial capital and after learning about their death!"

Bite!

Martin's hand shook suddenly, and the cup in his hand immediately fell to the ground.

The officer's face immediately became very gloomy, he suddenly stood up, bowed deeply to Chen Daolin, and said in a deep voice: "Master Darling, please forgive me for the temptation just now!"

A hint of sharpness gradually appeared in his eyes: "I don't know the affairs of the imperial capital very completely. But Lord Goth died a miserable death! Lord Carman, Rodriguez IV died a tragic death! I know the news! Although I have retired from the Stormwind Legion for many years, I am now just stuck in this small garrison and waiting to die! But I, Martin, was also a member of the Stormwind Army! In the imperial capital, my comrades in the Stormwind Army did not know how many people died in battle! I heard that that night, the square of the palace was stained red with the blood of my Stormwind comrades!

Chen Daolin's eyes were also slightly red, and he said in a low voice: "Goth died unjustly...... Kaman and Dog Luo died a heroic death! All I can say is that I'm too cowardly to have the courage to sacrifice their lives. I...... Escaping from the imperial capital, I just want to be alive and then ...... Only by staying alive can I have a chance to get some justice for them!"

After hearing this, Martin let out a long breath, he pressed the table hard, and said in a deep voice: "When I hear your words, I will understand in my heart! Master Darling, I am not here to arrest you, in fact...... The garrison has been informed of your whereabouts, and the garrison has sent three teams out, and the other two have been led to other roads by my ideas. I came here all night to find you as much as I could, and then ......"

"And then what?"

"Then please get out of here immediately!" Martin gritted his teeth: "I'm not here to arrest you, but there is someone else in the garrison camp! That person is very powerful, and he has a group of elite men, and his strength is extraordinary! That person is very terrifying, my guard has a respectful attitude towards him, and even those men he brought are well-equipped, and all of them are very strong!! After learning about you, our team is only responsible for tracking down the news, and I have been ordered to send someone back to report you as soon as I find you, and then ......"

Chen Daolin's heart moved, and his eyes flickered: "You said that there is still a group of people in the barracks......? What does it look like? What's your name?"

"A middle-aged man...... looks good, and speaks softly, but the eyes are always a little intimidating...... He...... Well, I've heard the Commander of the Garrison call him 'Master Gule'. ”

Syllable!!

Chen Daolin suddenly slapped his palm on the table, stood up suddenly, and his eyes were instantly filled with murderous aura!!

"Ancient ...... Fun!!"

Just when Chen Daolin struggled to burst out of the name between his teeth......

Suddenly, I heard a "boom" outside!

Suddenly there was a loud noise in the courtyard!!

Montoya was the most responsive. He had already rushed to the window, and saw that the face of the Holy Knight was gloomy and ugly, and he quickly said: "Someone has broken in!

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a gentle and pleasant man's voice suddenly sounding outside.

"Your Excellency Darling, the reunion of the deceased is the rarest thing, it is rare to see an old friend like you in such a poor country, I think you are a person, I must not hide in the house and be embarrassed to come out to meet people!"

The voice came in, and it seemed to be far away, but it fell on everyone's ears. So clear!

Just this skill is enough to make people frightened!

Chen Daolin's face changed instantly, his eyes had narrowed into a line, and his eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent: "Hmph...... Ancient music!"

As he spoke, he walked briskly behind Montoya and glanced out the window.

I saw that in the courtyard, there were more than 20 horsemen who were already standing under the steps of the mansion, all black war horses, and all the people on the horses were all black light armor. The face is covered with visor, led by a middle-aged knight, dressed in a slightly different attire, wearing silver knight's armor. Holding a long sword in his hand, the iron face was put away, revealing a handsome and fair face, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth. Looking at the hall of the house, the gentle smile is like an old friend reunited.

Chen Daolin looked at this person. In an instant, I felt the hot blood rushing to my head, and then I took a few deep breaths before forcibly calming myself down.

He snorted, stood in the hall, and groaned for a while, before he puffed up his breath and shouted: "Gu Le, do you guys still have the face to come out to meet people! Hmph! Your nose is very effective, and you are very quick to chase here! It seems that you, a loyal dog, really work hard for your master Shiloh!"

The voice of this sentence was sent out by Chen Daolin with his spiritual power, and then he heard Xiluo's happy laughter outside: "Hahahaha! Master Darling, I haven't seen you for a long time, you still like to talk so cheaply! ”

"Hmph, I'm just curious, you're chasing fast!" Chen Daolin said, tilting his head at Montoya and losing his eyes. Montoya had already understood, and quickly took off the short spear behind his back and held it in his hand, Chen Daolin took out a half-length shield from the storage ring and stuffed it into the holy knight.

Suddenly turned his head, looking at that Ade, but he seemed to be stunned and did not react, Chen Daolin frowned: "Are you stupid? You were shouting and shouting to kill just now, you won't move now? Don't you know how to use a bow and arrow? Go to the second floor and find a window! Hmph, your brain is not good, but you will always release cold arrows!"

Ade woke up from a dream, and quickly rushed towards the stairs with a nervous face.

I heard Gu Le's smug laughter outside: "Hahaha! It was not easy to find you! Fortunately, there was a messenger from Anthony to report the news, and I happened to be in the military camp in this place." But I owe it to the officer named Martin to catch up with you so quickly!"

When Chen Daolin heard this, he glanced back at Martin, but Martin shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I will never betray you!"

Chen Daolin smiled: "I can trust the man from the Storm Legion......! I'm afraid this time it's going to hurt you. ”

Sure enough, I heard Gu Le laughing outside: "That Martin wears the old badge of the Storm Legion on his chest, others don't know him, where can I not recognize it?" Hehe, I paid attention, and sure enough, I found that he deliberately lured the other two passers-by away when he left the barracks...... Sure enough, I've found a big fish here!" (To be continued)
