"主啊,这是为什么?"
贝尔德擦干了骑士长剑的血,放进剑鞘里,困惑地问道.
"这其中的领导很多,我暂时无法向你解释清楚.兵来阻挡,水来掩护,遇到一切困难,就用我们手中的长剑劈成碎片就行了.
贝尔德见维林不愿详细阐述,不再询问,回到车队中,重新组织团队,准备离开.
维林眼神深邃地看着暴尸荒野中的强盗尸体,不停地思考.
在接下来的几天里,Velin 没有遇到土匪.也许这些鬣狗知道了团队很强大,不想无缘无故地遭受损失,所以他们选择了放弃.
穿过荒野后,他们终于到达了他们的第二个目的地——布莱恩男爵的岭岭.
布莱恩男爵甚至在 Waring 踏上山脊之前就知道他们的踪迹.
作为刚开始职业生涯六年的 Brian,正处于事业的上升期,对周围的环境非常敏感.
毕竟,一个 200 多人的团队,在灰光荒野的边界上,显得非常显眼.
走在队伍前面的维林,看着远处扬起的尘土,将自己的战斗能量凝聚在眼中.他发现小队正在接近他们,便命令贝尔德等人准备战斗.
"前面是 Velin 表哥."一个粗暴的声音传来,让他稍微降低了警惕,驱车向前迎面.
那人衣着宽松,腰间挂着一把骑士剑,周围围着几名骑士和三十多名骑士侍从.
"表姐,好久不见,我非常想你,你最近怎么样."Velin 开车向前走,看着 Brian 的脸,就像他六年前离开温莎城堡时一样.
"欢迎,Willin."布莱恩下马,张开双臂,狠狠地拥抱了威林,表现出极大的热情.
"表姐,我需要喋喋不休几天,希望你不要嫌弃."
"如果它在那里,那正好阿里克正在参观我的城堡,那时我们可以好好聊一聊."
当 Velin 听说他的第三个访客在 Brian 的城堡里时,他欣喜若狂:"Orlando,从第二节车厢里拿第二个木箱来.
Orlando, who was standing behind Velin and leading the horse, came to the second carriage, holding a heavy box in front of the two of them.
Velin stepped forward and opened the wooden box, revealing the armor of the Excellent Knight inside.
Baron Brian looked at the glittering armor, his eyes popping out.
"Cousin, how is this gift?"
"How is this good, then I will be disrespectful." Baron Brian walked forward and stroked his Excellent Knight armor as if he was comforting his woman.
Hearing his contradictory words, it was still the familiar person, and there was not much change.
Perhaps in front of an outsider, Baron Brian felt that he had lost his temper, coughed a few times to cover up the awkward atmosphere, and then asked someone to carry the box away and said, "Verin, let's go, I'll take you to my castle, and I'll hold a banquet for you tonight."
"Haha, cousin Brian, I'm looking forward to it."
Baron Brian led the way, leading Velin and his party to his castle.
After a journey of more than ten kilometers, the group arrived at a small but practical war fortress.
The walls of the castle are covered with barbs to prevent creatures from climbing into the castle.
In addition, there were more crossbows and ballista on the city walls than imagined. In the open space not far from the castle, thousands of young adults were trained by a few knights to perform simple stabs.
Looking at the costumes on them, they should be civilians from Ridge Territory.
Baron Brian followed Velin's gaze and explained with a smile, "Velin, the border area is not peaceful, these are all preparations for the surprise attack of monsters."
"Cousin, I have achieved a lot in the past six years."
"Of course, it doesn't matter who I am. I am Brian, destined to become the sixth earl of the Aix family."
Hearing Velin's affirmation, Brian was very ostentatious and said loudly.
Suddenly, Brian seemed to have remembered something, and asked without hesitation, "Willin, didn't you say you wanted to stay in Eagle Leader when you were young? How did you come out to be a pioneering knight?"
"It's a long story, let's not say it, just think I suddenly got enlightened."
"That's right, as a man of the Aix family, you must become a pioneer knight and fight for your own territory, which is worthy of your ancestors..."
"Okay, cousin, we'll talk about this later. Take me in to visit your castle first. I can't wait to get to know your fortress."
Entering the hall, he saw an elegant-looking man hiding on a chair and drinking tea quietly.
"Velin, this is Alik, it's... uh..." Baron Brian touched the back of his head, and couldn't remember how to get Velin to address him for a while.
Velin, who had done his homework, rolled his eyes at Brian, went forward to hug the strange man, and said affectionately, "Cousin Alik, nice to meet you."
"I'm very happy to see you too, my brother." Alik was suddenly hugged and stunned for a moment, then reacted and responded to Verin with the same attitude.
Baron Brian smiled awkwardly on the side. He had always been confused about the various relationships in the family, and often mistook his relatives.
"Master, the banquet has been arranged, please move to the living room." A gray-bearded butler came to the hall and reported respectfully to Brian.
"Velin, Alik, the dinner is ready. Let's go to the banquet first and chat while eating. By the way, let Velin talk about what happened in the family over the past 30 years."Baron Brian greeted the two and headed to his living room.
During the dinner, Velin and Alik had a great conversation. The topics covered all aspects, including the kingdom's politics, geography, neighboring countries, and other topics.
Looking at the harmonious relationship between the two, Brian was very happy.
His cousin and his brother got along so well, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart.
But what he didn't know was that although Verin and Alik had nothing to say, they were both on guard against each other, and they did a lot of work on the surface.
As time passed, the dinner ended, and Velin dragged his tired body to the room arranged by Brian.
Lying in bed, Velin closed his eyes and reflected on the conversation at the dinner party, combined with the information he received from Baron Alcott, thinking that the place in the Gray Mist Wasteland would be the best initial direction.
He only had one request, to ensure safety first, and then talk about other things.
Brian and Alik unanimously recommended that Velin go to the northwest of the Gray Mist Wilderness to open up, which was contrary to the direction recommended by Baron Alcott.
Due to the news obtained by the guidance of fate, the direction recommended by Baron Alcott is not advisable, and only the northwest direction of the Gray Mang Wilderness is left.
So, doesn't this amount to no choice?
If he didn't consider the risk, the southwest direction of the Gray Mist Wilderness was a good choice.
"It doesn't matter, safety comes first, choose the northwest direction, and rely on fate to guide me. After my strength is strong, the entire Gray Glow Wilderness will be mine. Do you still need to choose?"
After making up his mind, Velin began to fall asleep.
