Chapter 541 Familiar yet Strange Person
After walking along the dirt road for a while, Ethan found that the surrounding environment became more and more familiar. He looked around, then adjusted his direction slightly, and headed in a very familiar direction.
I didn't go far, and I found the camp that was very familiar but became a little strange.
"The Rogge camp still exists."
Originally, he thought that after eliminating Andariel and cleaning up the dark creatures entrenched in the monastery, the priests of the Sisters of the Blind Eye and Rogge would return to live in the monastery. This temporary camp should be abandoned and demolished. Yes, I didn't expect that the entire camp was not only preserved, but also expanded, remodeled and strengthened.
Ethan approached the camp, and saw that the wooden fence protecting the camp had been removed and replaced with a more solid low wall of mudstone structure, and there were rows of obstacles around the low wall, only the one leading to the main entrance. Obstacles - probably because there is no battle happening now, they will also be placed when necessary.
There was a Rogge looking into the distance at intervals on the low wall. Ethan found that the other party had seen him, but his eyes only stayed on him for a short time before moving away.
Obviously, these Rogge are not guarding against 'ordinary people' like him.
Ethan's footsteps were not fast, but he was already very close to Rogge's camp, no matter how slow he walked, he still came to the door.
"Hi, traveler, may I help you?"
The Rogge archer standing guard at the door is still a strong female man in red leather armor. The one in front of him is 1.8 meters tall, with the heel of the leather boots, standing there is about the same height as Ethan.
Coupled with the strong muscles that cannot be concealed by the leather armor, although she is a woman, she is not low in oppressiveness at all. When faced with questions from such a powerful warrior, ordinary people may not even be able to speak smoothly—even if this Rogge speaks The tone is quite kind.
"I want to ask, is the priest of Akara still alive?"
"Akara High Priest?"
"Yes, what?"
"Ah no, may I ask what you can do with the High Priest of Akara?"
The female Rogge looked up and down at Ethan in front of her. She was surprised that someone came here suddenly, claiming to see Akara... The high priest of Akara has a good reputation around here. Everyone knows that the high priest of Akara in the monastery.
"I got her help here a few years ago, and I came here again and wanted to come and visit."
Female Rogge suddenly realized that it would not be surprising if she saw it a few years ago.
A few years ago, the Akara priests did stay in the Rogge camp—at that time, all the nuns of the Blind Eye stayed here. After all, the monastery was occupied by Andariel and countless dark creatures.
"It turned out to be the case, but the senior priest of Akara is not in the camp now, but is retreating in the monastery."
This was not what Ethan expected. What he was curious about was another thing.
"I heard that the demons have been defeated, why is this camp still there?"
When it was mentioned that the demon had been defeated, the female Rogge seemed very excited. Now there are legends of those heroes everywhere, and fighters like Rogge worship those heroes who can defeat the demon even more.
I am also proud of the work I have done over the years.
"Although Diablo and Barr have been defeated, the dark creatures all over the place will not disappear immediately, so Lord Kasha suggests to keep this camp to clear the nearby dark creatures, and at the same time protect the past. Traveler."
Ethan nodded, he knew the general direction when he came here last time.
The monastery is located in the east, just in the position of a transportation hub, so when Andariel was entrenched in the monastery, it blocked the normal communication between the east and the west.
The Rogge camp was built by the priests who were defeated and fled, and the Rogges were at a certain distance from the monastery.
Now that the nuns have regained the monastery, this area can be settled with the monastery as the core, and a place a little further away also needs a stronghold, and the role of the Rogge camp is reflected.
"No wonder there are hardly any monsters on the road this time."
Hearing what Ethan said, Rogge seemed very happy, as if her years of hard work had finally been affirmed.
"That's what we've always hoped for."
"By the way, is Kasha here?"
"Master Kasha is currently in charge of the monastery... currently the Rogge camp is under the command of Milin."
Ethan nodded, then sighed helplessly.
When he was in the Rogge camp, he spent most of his time communicating with Akara, and occasionally had a few words with Kasha. The best relationship was actually the blacksmith Charsi.
But other than these few, he communicated more with Issandra and Zul, and he was not very familiar with the ordinary Rogge.
Just like the Mi Lin mentioned by the female Rogge, he didn't even know who it was, and he didn't even know if it was the Rogge he had seen before.
"Where's Charsi?"
If the female Rogge just believed that Ethan knew the priest of Akara before, she basically believed it now-the blacksmith in the Rogge camp at that time was Charsi, and only those who have actually been to the Rogge camp know this. .
Blacksmiths are not as concerned as camp commanders and senior priests. If there are no masterpieces handed down from generation to generation, no one will care about a blacksmith.
So when Ethan mentioned Chasi, the female Rogge's tense muscles relaxed a little—although she had been talking to Ethan kindly, she did not let go of the vigilance she should have, which proves that She is an experienced and excellent fighter.
It wasn't until Ethan proved that she was indeed an 'acquaintance' that she let her guard down a little bit.
"Charsi has already left here, as for where he went...Maybe Master Kaxia knows."
"That's right."
Ethan looked very disappointed. Although the Rogge camp in front of him was still in a place he was familiar with, it had become a completely strange place.
Thinking of this, he didn't have the intention to wander around in the camp, thanked this female Rogge, and then prepared to head east to the monastery to see Akara.
"It's getting late, why don't you rest in the camp for a night before going on your way?"
Female Rogge kindly reminded Ethan.
"Although we have tried our best to clean up the dark creatures in this area countless times, but whenever night falls, there will always be guys who come out of nowhere, so it is better not to go outside at night .”
Ethan returned Rogge with a grateful smile: "Thank you, but I still have some ability to protect myself."
Seeing that the other party insisted on going on the road, the female Rogge stopped talking.
Those who can travel alone have some fighting ability, otherwise there is no way to live too long. Ordinary people who really don't have the ability to fight will never travel alone. Either go on the road in groups, or travel with a passing caravan, even if you pay some money for this, it is acceptable, so as to ensure your own safety.
After all, in this world, there is no threat of dark creatures, nor does it mean that there are no other dangers in the wilderness - such as wild beasts and road robbers, which can take the lives of ordinary people.
Therefore, those who have no ability will definitely not wander outside alone.
Ethan being able to appear here alone is enough to prove many things.
"Good luck with your journey."
Seeing the young man slowly disappearing from sight, the female Rogge returned to her post and continued her boring and unremarkable work—but she hoped that this kind of calm and boring could last forever.
Ethan, who had left the Rogge camp, looked back, and there was no sign of the camp in sight. Of course, he wouldn't just walk to the monastery. Although the distance between the Rogge camp and the monastery was not too far, But it's definitely not close.
When he was sure that he could no longer see himself, Ethan was just about to cast teleportation magic, when he suddenly realized that he didn't know the exact location of the monastery at all, if he used teleportation magic without knowing the coordinates, it would be easy to 'stuck' himself in the wall.
Although he wouldn't be stuck inside and couldn't get out, he was afraid of embarrassment. So Ethan decided to be honest...fly over.
Since his teleportation magic has become more and more arbitrary, he has rarely used his flying ability to travel, even now he no longer relies on external objects, and can fly at high speed by himself.
So the long-lost sense of speed and lightning made him a little carried away, and he almost flew over his head by accident, and finally turned around after a big circle, so he ran to Lu Gaoyin without a breath.
Looking at the monastery below, Ethan still found a hidden corner, then turned back to the main road, and walked towards the main entrance of the monastery like an ordinary traveler.
This time he didn't deal with the guard, because he accidentally met Kasha who was patrolling various posts.
"Kashya!"
"You are……"
Ethan has changed a lot, and Kasha has no way of recognizing that the tall and handsome young man in front of him is the thin boy back then.
"I'm Ethan, the one who accidentally appeared in Rogge's camp a few years ago due to a teleportation..."
When mentioning the name, Kasha still didn't have much impression, but when Ethan mentioned the 'reason' for his appearance in Rogge's camp, Kasha immediately thought of that young and thin boy.
"I remembered, you are that young mage apprentice."
There was a clear image in my mind, and then Kaxia looked at Ethan in front of him again, and suddenly laughed: "Yes, it seems that you have grown very well these years, and finally look like a warrior!"
While talking, Kaxia stretched out her hand and patted Ethan's shoulder heavily. She admired the elasticity of the muscles under the loose clothes, so she couldn't help touching it twice.
