Chapter 71: Like a duck to water

  Chapter 71 Like a duck to water

  Before dawn the next day, Xiuyin took the breakfast that Ianna had prepared last night and left Lexingburg early.

   A small town in the south of the Haider Dominion, Huangshui Town, is the first and most important stop of Huin's departure. That is where Hans's house lives.

   Xiu Yin looked through his memory and found that he knew very little about Hans. Fortunately, the four of them had been in contact with each other for a short time before. Now that he knew where Hans lived, it would be easy!

  According to the only knowledge, a few years ago, Hans' father was assigned from the Bone Knights to Huangshui Town as a guard because of his growing age, which is equivalent to the captain of the security in the town.

However, Hans' father, who had some obsession with knights, thought this incident was a humiliation to his knight's dignity. Since then, he has been suffering from alcoholism. Every time Hans mentions his father, he will unconsciously smile. Bring out a little sadness.

   After half a day's journey, we arrived at Huangshui Town located in the south of Haider Plain.

  The name contains "town", but after Xiuyin got off the carriage, he found that this place is no different from a village, with a population of just over 2,000, half less than Fort Lexington.

  However, due to its more southerly location, Huangshui Town looks even more desolate.

   Fortunately, the people living in this land have not given up hope. Although the clothes are not bright enough, most people are still working hard and struggling.

   Some townspeople saw someone getting off the carriage outside the town, wearing nice clothes, and they knew that this person's identity was extraordinary, so they looked here with a little more awe in their eyes.

  If you say that when you first arrived in another world, Xiu Yin was still very satisfied with the gazes looking at him, but now, Xiu Yin no longer thinks so.

  Looking at him like this, what Xiu Yin wanted to say was that this is the tragedy of being a nobleman.

   "Hello, may I ask, where is Klopp's house located in the town?" Huin asked a big man who was chopping firewood at the entrance of the town very softly. Klopp was Hans' surname.

   "Hey, my lord!" The big woodcutter saw a boy in front of him, but he was clearly dressed as a nobleman, and immediately said very politely, "Klopp, Klopp's house is on that corner!"

   "Yeah, thank you!"

Xiu Yin didn't put on airs of nobility, although according to his status he was indeed nobler than these people, but Xiu Yin who came from another highly civilized world was not interested in this set of things, and he never What kind of fun do others enjoy in calling themselves "Young Master" and "Young Master", but the person who directly calls him "Xiu Yin" makes Xiu Yin feel a little more close.

   Along the small road between towns that was even narrower than Lexingburg, Huin finally came to a house at the corner of the town.

   "Hans, Hans! I'm Huin!" Huin thought for a while, and decided to shout the most direct way, which would also give Hans enough surprises.

   Sure enough, not long after the voice fell, the door of the house was pushed open immediately, and Hans' tall figure appeared in the yard, "Xiu Yin, my God, it's you!"

  Hans happily brought Xiu Yin to his home. Xiu Yin looked around the interior of Hans' house. Compared to the baron's mansion where he lived, Hans's house was really unsightly.

   "Father, Huin from the Neumann family is here!" Hans said to his father who was dazed and a little drunk at the table.

  Hans had some embarrassment on his face, after all, this was the first time Xiu Yin came to his home.

   "Neumann? Which Neumann?" It was Hans' father who came back to his senses, but Neumann's name surprised him, as if he recalled something.

   "My father is Shuke Neumann." Huin added, looking at the age of Hans' father, he should be about the same age as his own father, Huin thought he should know his father.

"Shuker Neumann?" Hans' father was slightly pensive at first, but then shook his head immediately, "No, no, no, Neumann, and only Barack Neumann is the real hero !"

   "Father, you drank too much again!" Hearing his father talking nonsense again, Hans showed an embarrassed face to Xiu Yin, and then helped his father back inside Xiu Yin first.

  With the support of Hans, Huin could still faintly hear his father talking about Barack Neumann, and it seemed that the war was involved.

  When Hans sat back at the table again, Huin asked first, "Brother Hans, did your father participate in any war?"

  Hearing this sentence, Hans winked at Xiu Yin, but Xiu Yin ignored it and stopped talking about it.

"By the way, Hans, how about becoming an official knight?" Xiu Yin felt that with Hans' strength, it should be possible. At the beginning of the duel between him and Galio in the martial arts arena, Hans's soul power had already been reduced. Infinitely close to level 3.

   "The soul power has reached level 3, but I didn't expect to become an official knight. I need to complete many tasks in the Warrior Guild to achieve corresponding points!" Hans said with some frustration on his face.

  Shu Yin didn't realize it was strange, and so did his mage guild, not to mention the most popular knight in the mainland right now.

The Warrior Guild originally did not have a class like "Knight". The original knight was the lowest nobleman. However, due to the need for rewards after some wars, "Knight" was later used as an honorary title to reward warriors with military exploits. With the rise of the Warrior Guild, "knight" has become a title in the Warrior Guild again.

  As for the saying that level 3 soul power is an official knight, that is a traditional aristocratic saying. To get the rank of knight in the Warrior Guild, of course it is not just based on physical strength reaching level 3.

   "So I'm worried about this matter!" When Hans was talking, he suddenly realized that he hadn't poured a cup of hot water for Xiuyin, and hurriedly prepared another cup.

After pouring water for Xiuyin, Hans continued, "I took a brief look at the missions of the Warrior Guild, and found that they basically require a multi-person team to complete. I can't complete the missions alone, and There is no way my father would let me join the infantry regiment, let alone become a mercenary..."

   Hans was a little depressed, because on the road of a warrior, he walked unevenly. Looking at the wounded skin on his arms, Huin could guess how much Hans had suffered.

   "So, Hans, I'm here to find you!"

  Shu Yin felt that he was like God's help, and directly invited Hans to form a team with him first.

Hans was of course excited when he heard it. He had already seen how good Xiu Yin's mage power was, and he was also a noble young master. The condition is undoubtedly a big enough temptation for Hans.

   "But..." Hans looked in the direction of the back room. His father left and no one took care of him. His mother left early, and it was his father who brought him up all these years...

  Huin scratched his head, and then suddenly said loudly, "I swear by the glory of the Neumann family, Hans, if you come with me, you will never tarnish the name of the knight!"

  Shuyin’s sudden words made Hans a little puzzled, but at this moment, the father in the room suddenly shouted——

   "Except for Barak in the Neumann family, the rest are cowards!"

   "Father!" Hans hurried in to see his father, but found that his father had stood up and was standing there looking at him and Xiu Yin.

   "The little devil of the Neumann family who saved the Marquis, hehe..." Hans' father was full of alcohol, and he barely stood up while holding on to the door frame.

   "Father!" Hans felt that his father's words about Xiu Yin were a little too much.

  Xu Yin stood up, turned his right hand up—

   Whoo!

   There was no incantation, and there was no time to cast the spell. In an instant, a fireball burning with red flames floated in Xiu Yin's hand.

   This made Hans' father slightly startled, as if he had already sobered up part of the alcohol.

Huin stared into Hans' father's eyes, and said firmly, "Your Excellency Klopp, I am only sixteen years old this year, and the Neumann family is not as good as it used to be, but I believe that with my hands, I can still do something. what!"

  Hans' father's eyes suddenly became a little blurred, and he suddenly felt that the person in his memory seemed to be standing in front of him again, Barak Neumann...

The fireball in Xiu Yin's hand immediately radiated heat throughout the room. Hans' father witnessed it for a while and said, "I don't know if it's the luck or misfortune of the Neumann family. Hans, if you want to leave, you can leave now. Those who repeat themselves are not real knights!"

   After speaking, Hans' father retreated to the back room and went to sleep.

  After hearing what his father said, Hans didn't hesitate any longer. He had already packed his bags, untied the big sword from the wall and carried it behind his back, and walked out with Xiu Yin.

  When the house fell silent, Hans' father stood up slowly, looked at the figures of the two people who were walking away through the window, and murmured, "Two talents came out of the Neumann family at the same time..."

  The two got into the carriage waiting outside the town, and Hans asked in surprise, "Where are we going next?"

   "North, Huangshi Town!" Xiu Yin successfully wooed Hans, and he was in a particularly good mood, which meant that more than half of the plan in Xiu Yin's mind had been completed.

   "Desolate Stone Town?!" Hans was taken aback when he heard this, and then immediately realized, "Is it going to Leona?"

  Xiu Yin nodded, "Finally go to Desolate Bone City to find Charlotte, so we will have a team of four!"

Hans was also very happy. Although he had only known Xiu Yin and the others for less than a year, Hans felt that he could get along with them the first time they met, especially Xiu Yin and Leo. And Charlotte generously arranged for them to enjoy delicious food every time.

   It takes more than half a day to travel from Huangshui Town to Huangshi Town, and after passing Huangshi Town, it is very close to Huanggu City.

  In the carriage, Huin continued to ask Hans, "Your father mentioned the war before, do you know anything about it?"
