Chapter 18: Blank's Past

The forest at night was too quiet, the mountain breeze that had been blowing by had stopped at some point, and the sound of cicadas had disappeared, except for a few bird whimpering sounded in the empty air with the smell of blood, which seemed to be the last struggle of life, and seemed to be a cry for help before death.

Dark clouds obscured the moon and seemed to be in the final stages of brewing.

The whole land was shrouded in darkness, and the original fangs and claws of the woods were also soaked in a dead light, looking so depressing.

Lance, who was on the last night with Blank, wrapped his hands around the cold sword, and the cold blade was pressed against Lance's cheek, which made him tighten the wide cloak on his body and keep the cold of the night out.

In the battle with the wolves during the day, every time Lance killed a hungry wolf, he could clearly feel a faint warm current coming from the hilt of the sword into his body, this warm current seemed to strengthen his physique, making him feel unusually comfortable.

When Lance's father, Candita, gave him the "Sword of Sohana", he said that it was a legendary sword connected to Lance's life.

As for the specific origin of the sword, Candita did not explain, he only told Lance that everything needed to be uncovered by Lance himself.

"Sohana's sword, how many secrets are there in your body waiting for me to discover......?"

Lance thought to himself, could this have something to do with that dream?

He sighed softly and looked up at the already whitening sky......

Blanche, who was on duty with him all night, sighed slightly when he saw Lance and smiled.

Blank heard Lance sigh, turned his head and smiled, took off the wine bag he was carrying, unscrewed it and took a sip, then handed it to Lance again.

"Save some drink, I got it at a high price from old Bill, it's strong, and it's easy to get drunk when you're in a hurry. ”

Lance hesitated, then took a big sip.

"Ahem, cough, cough~"

This wine is indeed strong, and after entering the mouth, it burns from the mouth to the stomach, and when you take a sip of wine, it seems that the cold of the night has been dispelled.

"Thanks, what kind of wine is this? I've never drunk it before. ”

Lance asked with amusement.

"It's a distilled liquor that is abundant in the North, and unlike the fermented liquor we have been drinking, it is rarely available in the Southern Kingdom, and it is more expensive and difficult for ordinary people to obtain. ”

Blank took the wine bag that Lance had returned, took a small sip of nostalgia, and reluctantly screwed the lid and hung it back on his waist.

"In the past, when I was at the border, in order to protect against the cold weather there, my comrades-in-arms and I drank this wine to protect against the cold. By the way, Old Bill used to be a supplier of border supplies, I don't think I told you about it, did I?"

"Blank, can you tell me about your time at the border?" asked Lance, with interest.

After being silent for more than ten breaths, Blanc said slowly: "Before, I was a tower shield knife soldier belonging to the Tower Shield Knife Battalion of the Barrier Regiment of the Third Army on the border of the kingdom, and my main combat mission was to form the main combat strength against the Northern Orc Legion together with other battalion headquarters. ”

The Third Army Barrier Regiment on the border of the kingdom is the special regimental headquarters of the Third Army, which is a regimental combat unit composed of special arms with different functions.

The several special parts that make up the Barrier Regiment are the Heavy Armored Lancer Battalion, the Ranger Battalion, the Ranger Battalion, the Heavy Axe Battalion, the Tower Shield Spear Battalion, and the Tower Shield Knife Battalion.

The Barrier Regiment does not have conventional combat arms, and these six special battalions are often mixed according to the needs of the mission to form special operations formations to carry out special tasks.

Among them, the Tower Shield Knife Battalion, where Blank is located, has another special mission in addition to being mixed with the other five special battalions.

Once the Northern Kingdom sends out an elite Half-Orc Legion, then the Tower Shield Blade Battalion will become the main fighting force against the Half-Orc Legion.

However, if you want to join the Tower Shield Knife Battalion, you must have a strong enough physique and a spirit that is not afraid of death.

And the former Blank was such a strong and fierce warrior.

"In the battle, everyone is as fearless and crazy as the berserkers in the half-orc army, and when we pick up the shield, we are a solid barrier in front of our comrades, and if we lose the shield, we are madmen who don't want to die on the battlefield. ”

When Blank said this, his eyes were full of pride, and he pointed to his left chest, where he should have been wearing a military merit medal, and said, "I used to hang a lot of military merit badge signs here......

At this point, Blank suddenly sighed, as if he remembered something?

Lance asked with some curiosity, "Then why did you leave the border later?"

Blank took out the sac again and took a big sip, then handed the half-empty sac to Lance, and the whole person fell into a reminiscence.

"In a special operation I participated in, due to the failure of command and intelligence errors, all members of a mixed special company of our Barrier Regiment fell into the trap of the Northern Orcs, which was a mixed company of one hundred and twenty people, and in the end, I was the only one who survived, and after that I quit the Barrier Regiment. ”

Although Blank's tone of voice is very flat, Lance can still imagine the cruelty and heroism of that battle.

Lance, who took the sac, also took a big sip like Blank.

The strong distilled liquor made Lance choke and cough a few times again, and Blank smiled and said, "Haha...... I warned you that this wine is very strong. You look like one of those recruits who just learned to drink, haha......"

Lance also looked up and smiled at Blank.

Blanc glanced into the cave, approached Lance and whispered: "Reminder, you and Ike, don't provoke Della, although this woman doesn't talk much, but her strength is unfathomable, and several of our companions who have cooperated many times don't know what stage of martial arts monk she is, nor do they know what her purpose is, but she is a very reliable partner." ”

As early as a few days ago, Blank had noticed this good-looking blonde young man, whose eyes were always looking at the sexy female warrior.

It was normal for such a young man with strong blood to have some thoughts when he saw such a sexy stunner, but he didn't want this young man to suffer from Dra.

Lance's expression was slightly embarrassed, but he didn't expect that his and Ike's small movements would be discovered by Blank.

"Hahahaha, young man, understandable!"
