Proof of the Sun King

Chapter 25: , Banquet in the Lord's Longhouse (Part 2)

"Cough, since the two are here, let's get to the point." Oliver motioned his guards Fake and Mather to move the food on the table to the side, and a circle of parchment was spread out on the table: "Lord Lord Rejected the request to send troops, but after hearing that we were friends with Mr. Lane, he gave us this."

"Map?" Boris, the head of the Blood Axe Mercenary Group, came, and so did the deputy head, Wilt, probably because Banda was seriously injured, and the deputy head was a little worried.

"Exactly." Through the light of candles and oil lamps, a group of people sat around listening to Oliver's introduction.

"We have twenty-three carriages and more than a hundred guards, and the druid 'Tree Planter' Eldrad of the Church of Nature will also travel with us, plus Mr. Lane and Teresa The two legendary powerhouses are sitting here, so the safety should be guaranteed."

Oliver spread out the map and put it on the round table. He pointed to the road between Kalzenhaven and Mjordenhaven. Ryan looked at it a little. There were two mountains on the road. The map showed the possible robbers. The Brin tribe and other monsters mainly marked the Beastmen tribe. The expected route of the caravans was not small because they had to avoid the Beastmen tribe.

"Let's continue. The rogues led by Bilger will explore the way in front of us. If there is a situation, they will return to the convoy and report to us as soon as possible." The little middle-aged man hidden in the cloak raised his hand. , Ryan nodded slightly.

"The mercenary group led by Boris and our **** team will walk on the outer layer of the convoy. If they encounter an enemy approaching, they will face the intruding enemy as soon as possible." Oliver added, the mercenary leader raised his head upon seeing this. took out his big axe: "Bring those **** over! I'll chop them up!"

"Ms. Teresa and Mr. Estelle will be in the middle of the convoy. Mr. Estelle will use his keen vision to monitor every move nearby, while using bows and arrows to protect us, please also ask Ms. Teresa Help us, and at the end of the convoy, a few wandering knights who are traveling with us will follow on horseback to provide us with protection."

"A very complete plan, a very detailed action plan." Ryan was more approving of this plan, he stretched out his finger and put a little bit in front of the team's sketch: "Then I will ride at the forefront, ready to deal with any... …”

"No, Mr. Ryan, you'd better stay with us! Isn't that safer?" Oliver added immediately, and Ryan rolled his eyes and nodded with a smile, "That's okay too."

"I'll talk next." The speaker was changed to Mats.

"On the first day, we are expected to be able to walk to the foot of Mount Hordaland..." As Mats' fingers slowly moved on the map, the time plan was slowly revealed in front of the Kingdom Knights: "The third Day 4 and day 4 are a difficult point, on day 3 we will go up to Mount Scarwell, there is an abandoned fort in the valley of this mountain, it is very likely that robbers or goblins are occupying it and want to be safe After passing here, we may need to launch a frontal attack on the fortress, or give a small gift to the owner in the fortress." Mats scratched his golden beard, which attracted a dissatisfied complaint from the half-elf ranger: "Small gifts? Blind concessions will only lead to greater greed."

"I think Estelle is right. We don't have any reason to back down to a group of rabble. If necessary, I will show my strength to ensure that we pass safely, so what about the fourth day? What's the difficulty?" Appeasement in favor of the half-elves will only lead to more serious consequences.

"On the fourth day, we will come to the second half of Scarville Mountain. This is a dense forest. Various sources indicate that there are terrifying Beastmen in it. We have tried our best to avoid Beastmen in the design of the route. , but who knows if he will run into them on a certain mountain road?" Oliver put his finger on a place marked with a black dot, and said heavily: "The chief of guard Lauritz told us that there have been several knights. It disappeared after going to slay the Beastmen, so we have to be very careful when we pass this place."

The sorceress frowned. There are indeed very powerful beings among the beastmen, and these beasts have thick skin and thick flesh, and don't take much magic damage. If there are really beastmen who can't be solved by a few knights, then Ryan can deal with them. What?

Up to now, I can only trust him.

Hearing the name of the Beastmen, both the mercenaries and the guards stopped their actions and expressions, and many of them showed fear and withdrawal on their faces. The Beastmen continued to wreak havoc on the entire continent, with their illustrious names. It is constantly circulated that, except for the knight kingdom of Brittany, because of the efforts and sacrifices of several generations of knight kings, the beastmen have been cleaned up in the country, but the beastmen still exist in those ancient jungles.

The Empire and Britania have to clear these beastman tribes on a regular basis every year, otherwise they will be flooded in two years, but even the most powerful Imperial troops rarely dare to enter the depths of the jungle. Exhausted raids and harassment and weak supply lines often cause the army to collapse without a fight and then disappear.

The blood axe mercenary group that fought a **** battle with the Beastmen tribe in the Mein Forest just a few days ago, Boris felt lingering fears when he thought of that battle.

This was the biggest difficulty on the road. All the people around the round table fell into silence. The flickering candles swayed continuously. The general line was set during the negotiation. Finally, Oliver broke the silence: "Mr. Ryan, We may stay for another day, with a large number of people stagnating in this town, we will try to find more partners, including those wandering knights who are willing to travel with us to improve our success rate."

"Those people are not worthy of full trust, Oliver, I hope you can identify who can be with and who can't." Ryan frowned, looking at the noisy environment in the longhouse, the glass collided with the glass, the foam of beer in the air It spreads in the middle of the night, there is a carnival between people, and the exiled knight named Ike is bragging to a group of soldiers: "Guys, have you heard of Bagman beer? Woo woo woo ~ I think When I think about it, I'm already drunk~"

The aliases of exiled knights include rogue knights, rogue knights, etc. While these people seek to become regulars, there is also no shortage of robbery and even road robbery. They are often a threat to local security.

"I understand!" Oliver was naturally full of words. The businessman naturally had his own abacus, and Ryan didn't say much. From some perspectives, he really needed Oliver to organize a caravan. The sorceress's body hasn't recovered yet. , at this time, it is not a good choice for two people to set off rashly.

After making a general plan, Ryan relaxed a little, and he also participated in the banquet to the fullest, letting go of his body and mind and eating and drinking until he felt that someone was pulling the back of his shirt.

Um? Teresa?

"Want to go?" Ryan noticed that Teresa's face was a little impatient, so the man led her away from the round table: "Are you tired? Why don't you go first?"

"How long will this banquet last?" The sorceress really felt a little tired.

"It is estimated that it will be until tomorrow morning... Do you want me to take you out?" This kind of country banquet can last until the next morning. In this era, there is a serious lack of entertainment after nightfall. Only the great nobles have the money to use magic lamps to illuminate them. Things like oil lamps can't have any decent effect, so when it's dark, you can only roll the sheets or something, then in this case, the banquet provides a carnival environment, so this kind of banquet basically has to be carnival. Early morning or even dawn.

"Why don't you come with me? Or do you want to find a woman to solve your ugly desire?" The sorceress stood in front of Ryan with contempt on her face.

Ryan's old face turned red. He did go to hook up with a widow and set a secret code just now. He didn't expect his actions to be seen by the sorceress: "Uh, if you must."

"Then let's go!" The sorceress unceremoniously stretched out her hand and pulled the man's collar, and the man had to complain to the lord: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Hahahaha! Go, don't accompany us old people!" Villard laughed, the beer foam on his beard was flying everywhere, and then he said to the courtier beside him indifferently: "I heard that Jialan's Women like to find a witcher after a banquet...why is this woman changing her appetite today?"

"Hahahaha! She might be better at this! After all, Mr. Lane must be better than those witchers who are soaked in blood all day long, what a handsome young man!" Some officers coaxed.

"Maybe it's just a good relationship between these two people."

In the speculation of everyone, Ryan and Teresa left the longhouse together. At this time, it was very late. The night sky was full of stars, and the cold was like a real cold air breathing into the lungs. Ryan couldn't help but stunned , The wine was also half awake, he lowered his head and gasped: "Why did you pull me out suddenly?"

"I hate their gazes. Men's gazes are always on me, and there are... many places on my body." The sorceress stomped her feet, her slender high heels stepped on the mud, leaving a mark: "It really makes me feel Disgusting, especially that exiled knight named Ike, who keeps his eyes on my leg!"

"My eyes are always on your legs. Beautiful things are always something that people want to appreciate, right?" Ryan complained that the outside environment was dark, and he could only feel the position of the sorceress with his psychic powers. .

"...I know you like stockings, do you remember the banquet when we met for the second time?"

"Remember... remember." The man had some bad premonition in his heart.

"At that time, my mother and I sat next to me, and then halfway through the banquet, my mother went outside to discuss things with His Majesty Harald..."

"I was wrong, I was wrong! Dear Teresa, please don't mention this, okay?!" Ryan was immediately ashamed, and he didn't care whether the sorceress could see it or not, he quickly folded his hands and begged for mercy.

"Humph! Then you know what you should do." The sorceress's face was also a little red, but no one could see the other in the dark environment, and the two of them just walked in a vague direction.

"Then what should I do?" Ryan looked very embarrassed. He was still a young man at the time. Although his actual mental age was almost fifty years old, his mental age was not as simple as adding up. The ghosts have done something indecent, and now the sorceress has the handle.

"By the way, I saw Wilt, the deputy head of the blood axe, looking for what you said worriedly before, and his expression became a lot easier after that." Ryan immediately changed the subject, but he really wanted to know what happened: "He What did I tell you?"

"Wilt asked me if he would go through the same hard battle as before, and if so, he will consider canceling the employment relationship between us." The sorceress's face did not seem to take it seriously.

"Then how did you answer him?" Ryan thought to himself, this mission is really too dangerous, and no mercenary group leader would take on such a mission that might destroy the group.

"I told him no. Belt has already gone to sea, so there shouldn't be another battle like that next, right?"

"If it's really what you think..." Ryan frowned. The sorceress was right, but he vaguely felt that things would not be so simple.

"Lane."

"Um?"

"Be my partner, okay?"

"Emmm... do you really want a partner instead of a bet... (whispering)?"

"Ryan!!!"

Calzenhaven's night was not quiet.

The ocean is even more turbulent.

There is only a short strait between the Nord Kingdom and the northern wasteland. The ocean in this is called the Chaos Sea. In the war between humans and the northern barbarians for hundreds of years or more, there are countless buried under the Chaos Sea. 's corpse.

The sea from the western mouth of the Nord Kingdom is called the Dark Sea. This sea area is famous for being plundered by the dark elf fleet. Whenever the dark elf pirate ship with black sails and black flags appears on the sea level, It is the nightmare of all merchant ships.

In the dark night, a fast ship was galloping along the route.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Don't worry about pirates and sea monsters! Hurry up!" On the bow stood a middle-aged man, wearing a tall hat with a high collar, his voice was very low and hoarse.

"We're at full speed with full sail, sir!" a sailor responded with dissatisfaction, and the employer didn't seem to want to sleep~www.wuxiahere.com~ He was standing on the bow all the time, urging They speed up.

Sailors feel they have had enough! Many of them work more than sixteen hours a day.

"Okay, shut up, this mission is over, and you will benefit!" The first mate on the ship fiercely pushed away the sailors who wanted to go up to the theory: "After this voyage, everyone will have turkey to eat! "

The sailors then dispersed.

The middle-aged man watched the sailors return to their posts, the scimitar at his waist slowly sheathed.

He couldn't wait to offer his blood and glory to his new master,

It's just that the first officer seemed to have noticed something and tried his best to prevent other sailors from approaching him, which made him give up the idea of ​​killing two sailors.

Ah~ what a powerful force.

After unreservedly telling his terrible master about the weaknesses of the northern fortresses, he was rewarded handsomely, and the shackles of the realm that had not been broken through for many years were easily shattered by the master's power.

Although his body changed more and more, his skin became more and more red, sharp horns grew on his head, countless gray blood vessels covered his skin, and wildly proliferating nails appeared all over his body.

But he enjoyed it.

Everything he saw had a faint color of blood. It was the color of blood. The Blood God never asked the origin of blood. He only asked his followers to enjoy blood and slaughter, and compete for the strongest position.

Belt swore that he was ready.

"Then, give the chops that are still chasing me a little color to taste!"

The ferocious scarlet eyes of the Fallen Hunter radiated red light.

He has already contacted a terrifying existence.
