Chapter 127 Night talk

After the Knight of Wellington finished speaking, the Duke of Angmar, who had always been strong since waking up, was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lowered slightly, and after a slow exhale, he asked in a slightly hoarse voice: "So he's dead."

In the years of fighting side by side, the Duke of Angmar has actually asked similar words no less than ten times, and the object of the question has changed a lot-those knights who fought together passed away one by one, and every time someone died , the Duke of Angmar said such words lightly...

But this time was different after all, because it was his only son, Francis Luciferon, who died.

No matter how used to death, the old Duke's mood was complicated and indescribably sad when faced with such news. He stretched out his hand and gently pinched the bridge of his nose, his wrinkled face trembled slightly—— When he raised his eyes, he could vaguely see the appearance of Titus and Wellington when they were young, but when his vision became clear, he could see the traces of time on these two once young knights.

Everything is changing.

In the same way, he also thought of the figure of the little boy who used to be full of smiles and liked to ask questions—but the doubts in his heart also followed: What happened to him in the past few years when he fell ill? What kind of path will lead to this irreversible result?

Angmar, whose face seemed to have aged a few years in an instant, sighed suddenly, but other than that, there was no extra emotion expressed.

Titus on the side stopped talking and laughing, while the Knight of Wellington got up and sat aside. After the maid consciously left, he began to talk about everything he saw...

This process was not long, but the Duke of Angmar asked for an hour. When he heard the news that Sally chopped Francis into a meat paste, the Duke who had always received all the information calmly was shaken. Shaking her head, she said softly, "She won't do that..."

"Maybe it's related to someone else."

Wellington thought for a while, then continued softly: "I want to say, that scout captain..."

*****

Time passed slowly, and when it was nearly midnight, Akasha finally woke up in a cheap hotel room in the Cambay area.

Her eyelids moved, and the severe pain from her right arm made her gradually regain consciousness from the coma.

Hearing voices vaguely, Akasha's hearing returned to normal first, and she wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids were still heavy and she couldn't lift her body, and her body was in excruciating pain—it took a long time before she realized To himself lying on a soft bed.

Her chest was tight and her throat was dry, but none of these feelings could compare to the bursts of sharp pain from her arms... The pain doesn't matter, what frightened Akasha the most was that she could feel a pair of hands moving back and forth on her arms Touching, there are still some conversation sounds coming from my ears intermittently.

"...you need to find a better splint when you break a bone, you know that?"

There is a voice that seems very casual, and it sounds like it should be the leader, with an "I say you listen" tone.

"I remember a doctor said, but I only have a general understanding of bone problems. Hers is more complicated, so I'm not sure."

The tone of the young man who answered was somewhat cautious.

"Rug, what do you think?"

"Me? I think it's fine to just straighten it and bandage it..."

This voice is hoarse, probably over thirty years old.

"If your fracture is like this, I'll just straighten and bandage you casually, and you won't be able to hold a sword for the rest of your life."

There were three people in total, talking here as if they were using themselves as teaching materials. Akasha felt like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and felt very embarrassed.

But my mind is muddled, I haven't remembered why I am here, I want to move, but I can't use the strength at all...

"She was lucky, the bone didn't break through the skin, or it would be troublesome if it got infected."

"What is an infection?"

"You don't understand even after I said it. Anyway, you have to remember that if you have a wound on your body in the future, wash it off first."

Akasha listened in a daze, and gradually recalled why she was injured: the secret passage, the wound on her back...

Could it be that he was caught by them from the secret passage?

She couldn't think of any other possibility in her mind, she immediately thought that these people belonged to the "Rose Cross", but the words she heard later made her stunned——

"I also said that I will send it to the monastery today, but I just went there to pretend to be a **** at night, and it is not suitable to go there now. It will be no problem if we send it tomorrow. Those magic sticks should use magic to give it to her. For treatment, just make sure the wound is clean."

The man who was talking stretched out his hand to wipe his back with a towel while talking, and Akasha immediately felt extremely ashamed and indignant—it's over...his back must have been seen by him...

"Okay, now put the splint on, Soderol help me grab her hand - yes, Ruger, put the splint on - crooked...too crooked, right here - ok, bandage ...Where's the bandage? Grandma's, Soderol, that behind your ass—"

Akasha couldn't hear what was said later, because the severe pain from her arm had made her faint again.

***

When she woke up again, Akasha felt as if her body was buried in the soil and could not move.

Eyelids fluttered slightly, and she finally opened a slit when she was lying on the bed: what she saw was a simple bedside table under the dim candlelight, and there was a large spider web in the corner, it could be seen that few people cleaned it here .

There is a strong smell of blood in the nostrils, but it is also mixed with a faint smell of herbs. The head is cushioned by a pillow, and a stale smell rushes towards the face. I think this place should be a cheap hotel...

Consciousness recovered bit by bit, and the scenes of the assassination flashed before his eyes, and finally stayed in the secret passage.

Anyway, I was saved...

Thinking this way in her heart, Akasha didn't feel much rejoicing, because she soon realized a crisis she was about to face: these strangers who rescued her seemed to be handing herself over to the monastery... and one Thinking of the bishop who directly ordered the arrest and even attack on her, some complicated emotions arose in her heart.

regret? Not so, after all, I got rid of the "Viper Cross"; anger? Very angry, Rubens' attack made Akasha's anger feel like burning his heart—but when he thought of revenge, his heart was immediately enveloped by a sense of powerlessness.

The status of "Supreme Bishop" is simply a mountain to Akasha, and now he has nothing to ask for, and he has no power or strength. Even if he finds him, he will probably be shot to death every minute.

A little unwilling in her heart, but she finally recognized the reality - no matter what, finding a stable place to live is the first priority.

Akasha tried to move her fingers, and was pleasantly surprised to find that due to the immobilization of the splint, her fingers could move slightly now—this meant that she could almost cast a weak healing spell!

But just when she was about to cast a spell, the door was gently pushed open...

"It's almost a busy day, Luge, ask a few people to install those stones, and we will rely on them for dinner later."

"Captain, is this thing so valuable?"

"It's not something you worry about. I'll think about making money—go back to sleep first, and don't forget to arrange a vigil."

It's those three people again!

Akasha remembered how she was treated before she fell into a coma, and couldn't help but feel a little hot: I really don't know if he took the opportunity to do something else...

She still has no way of confirming what happened to her. In short, her body is wrapped in bandages like a mummy, and the side effects of excessive blood loss are still continuing. Continuing--it sounds like the Ruger guy went back to rest, while the Soderol guy stayed here with Captain.

"The team is in good condition, and it can be seen that they are not lazy during training."

"Everything is going according to plan. By the way, on the twelfth, a group of thieves came to Nolan Village, and we solved it. It is estimated that no one will dare to rob food there in a few years."

"Is anyone hurt?"

"Small injuries are almost healed now, but there are still some losses in this battle today. Although there are no serious injuries, it will take a while to heal."

"This is unavoidable..." The captain sighed, and then heaved a sigh of relief: "Anyway, this matter is finally over, and we can take a breather."

There was silence for a while, and Akasha silently prayed in her heart to let them leave quickly, but then found that they seemed to be talking more and more vigorously.

"Captain Roddy, to be honest, I have always had a problem..."

After hearing this, Akasha knew that the captain's name was "Rody".

"kindness?"

"Since we arrived in Nolan Village, thinking about the things we have done now... I feel incredible. I have always wanted to ask, what is the belief that supports you to do so many things?"

"Faith?" Rody was also a little bored after the war and relaxed. He felt that it didn't matter to talk about ideals with Suo Deluoer at this time.

"state?"

"Yes, it's the state." Roddy thought for a while, and continued: "For example: what is the state of the farmer?"

Soderol was a little confused, but he didn't interrupt him.

"Planting the land every day, thinking about the harvest every day, basically don't know anything else - such a 'state' is numb and ignorant, because farmers basically don't know the knowledge that they can't touch. What they have to do , nothing more than farming and paying rent.”

After a pause, Rody's words not only attracted Soderol, but also made Akasha frown and listen.

"His state may be like this all his life, but if one day, he starts to learn continuously, accumulates a lot of knowledge, and knows a lot of new things, what will happen?"

Soderol frowned and thought for a while, and replied: "Maybe I will use this knowledge somewhere, such as becoming a nobleman instead of farming?"

"Yes, his state at this time is like a germinated seed, and he has a direction of growth—because his state wants to go up." Roddy paused, as if he was organizing his words. After a long time, He said: "In fact, people are like this. The more you see and understand, the more complicated your own state will be, and the more things you want to do will become more..."

"I took you to kill the bastards in the Beastman Kingdom, and slaughtered the witch doctor who was their pillar. What made me do this? In fact, my state at that time was essentially...frightened."

"Afraid of them?"

"No, I'm actually not afraid to face them, what I'm afraid of is all the impact these guys may have on the kingdom's land in the future-those are the things that scare me, and this state of fear sustains me Lead you out of that grassland."

After Luo Di said these words, Soderol frowned and fell into deep thought. On the other side, Akasha lying on the bed was completely speechless by these words, and even opened her eyes involuntarily. small mouth...

They actually went to the orc kingdom to kill a... happy?

PS: It may be a chapter these days, because I suddenly found that some content in the manuscript is complicated and needs to be deleted, and I am deciding which one to use for the next big plot. Today, this one has been changed for a long time. There was originally a scene where Rody used spirits to disinfect Akasha, but later I thought it might be unreliable. I checked it and found that alcohol with a concentration of less than 70% has no anti-virus effect at all. So it was temporarily deleted. The update will not be interrupted, but it may not be possible to update twice in the past few days, so I would like to say hello to everyone.
