Soul of Burning Steel

Chapter 55 Firefly's Worries

Seeing this scene, the soldier stopped, turned around, put down the head of the giant beast in his hand, and walked up to meet Keely and the others.

The one old, one injured and one unconscious in front of him are all his father's most capable subordinates, and they can be regarded as Joshua's elders—of course they are his subordinates now, but the truth cannot be said that way. Anyone he knows, he must go to greet him.

However, the moment the two sides encountered each other, the soldier frowned. He stopped, looked at the blue-haired half-elf suspiciously, and then turned to the white-haired mage and asked, "Mr. Lawrence, is this ……who is it?"

"ah?"

He was stunned for a moment. Facing this situation, Keeley, who was walking in front, hadn't reacted yet.

He had seen Joshua when he was a child, and taught him how to use weapons under the old earl's instructions. Although the two sides hadn't seen each other for many years, because he could imagine what the young man would look like when he grew up, he didn't think the face in front of him was strange. , but the half-elf warrior never expected that Joshua didn't seem to remember himself at all, and immediately felt a great hurt in his heart.

"Don't be stupid, your helmet fell off."

Feng sighed from his side: "He has never seen your face at all, it's normal not to know you."

Hearing the word helmet, Joshua immediately understood: "Mr. Keeley!"

After finishing speaking, the soldier's complexion suddenly became weird—not to mention, the blue-haired half-elf in front of him has an extremely handsome face. , and more importantly, this guy seemed to be a little smaller than him, and he had nothing to do with the stern and majestic tall warrior in his impression!

Even if Joshua's face is tough, he is still a young man in his early twenties, and the other party is of the same generation as his father, at least forty or fifty years old, and he looks younger than him... No wonder he usually Covering the face with a masked helmet, the magic pattern is second. The knights of the knights saw that their immediate boss was still so young and handsome after so many years. The double blow of age and appearance, the morale must have been low.

Feng didn't think there was anything strange, he saluted Joshua respectfully, and then said in a slightly hoarse voice: "My lord, this is not a place to talk, if possible, please wait in the fortress conference room After a while, after Kiri and I have sent Zorgen to the doctor, we will immediately go to report the situation of the Kuroshio."

"No need to be so formal, Mr. Lawrence."

After waving his hand, Joshua sighed: "It was my fault this time. I haven't contacted you for several days, but I still haven't realized it. I thought it was the reason why everything was safe..."

"This is a problem of communication being blocked. No one would have thought that the Kuroshio would start so quickly. It wasn't the young master... Your fault, my lord. What's more, there were not many casualties until the end. That is, the city wall collapsed and we had to rebuild Fix it again."

After receiving the words, Keeley, who came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "Now that the tide of magic has receded, and before the next golden monster appears, they probably won't dare to come out. We have enough time to fix it. To be honest, I believe Compared with the past, the loss this time is not too big."

Turning his eyes slightly, he saw the shiny silver egg-shaped object held by the warrior in his hand. The half-elf couldn't help but ask one more question out of instinctive curiosity: "This is it?"

"This is what I found in the body of the giant beast."

Joshua didn't take it seriously, he explained a little bit: "The giant mammoth eats grass and lives on a daily basis. Although it is not docile, it never actively attacks other creatures, and as the top of the ecological layer, if it weren't for it, the giant beast would never It may appear in the beast tide."

Feng, who was on the side, stared at the silver egg, but gradually frowned.

A familiar breath came, and he seemed to have sensed it somewhere.

But now is not the time to talk about this, the white-haired mage thought so, so he said: "Zorgen's injury is very serious, if he doesn't stabilize it, maybe his strength will go backward..."

"This kind of thing doesn't need to be explained to me, go ahead."

"Then see you later in the conference room, Lord Lord."

——Outside the city, south of Black Forest Fortress.

The silver-haired girl was riding a black war horse, galloping across the white snow field, the horse's hooves splashed snow and dust, leaving marks one by one.

After a while, the war horse stopped running. Now, in front of Yingying's eyes, is the tall city wall of the Black Forest Fortress facing the snow field. The huge gray-white rock is almost the same color as the surrounding environment. At first glance, it is completely impossible to find its trace.

The reason why they ran back and forth in the snowfield for the past two days was precisely because the dense fog interfered with the communication. Joshua and she couldn't find the specific range where the fortress was located at all, so they could only head towards the mountain range that they could see visually, and then along the I circled around the foot of the mountain——fortunately, I finally found it, and it was not in vain to run so hard.

Arriving at the gate of the fortress, the magical girl was a little surprised to find that the soldiers guarding the city looked calm, as if not long ago, the shrill siren from the communication circle had never sounded, and everyone on the city wall He also looked curiously at this very young silver-haired girl riding a war horse, and guessed her origin.

Yingying didn't think too much about it, she simply dismounted, led Hei, and showed the name tag to prove her identity to the city guards on the city wall. The light flashed, and her name and origin were projected in midair. This kind of nameplate with magical fluctuations cannot be counterfeited, so a small door on the side of the huge city gate was opened immediately.

"The lord should be in the memory room next to the central tower of the fortress."

When passing through the passage, the soldier who already knew her identity was told such information. Although she could sense where her contractor was, the silver-haired girl thanked the soldier politely, and then walked out of the passage .

What appeared in front of her was a street full of people coming and going.

Most of the civilians and uninjured soldiers were moving construction materials back and forth and distributing supplies, while many wounded soldiers were standing in front of various medical rooms waiting, some even treated their wounds on the street, while a few silver soldiers The damage received by the archer and the archer is relatively small. At this time, they have already started running around to maintain order.

But none of the mages wearing robes showed up. Yingying keenly noticed that there was a figure in a gray robe at the other end of the street. Very uncomfortable.

This is normal. In the face of war and endless monsters, the noble profession of mage has no way to give full play to its advantages. The strong pertinence is useless in the face of the Kuroshio whose monster attributes are counted in hundreds. Except for some special advanced war mages, this is basically the case. After casting a lot of spells, after they end their mentally tense state, they will suffer from mental backlash for a period of time and have a headache.

But no matter what, the city can be called well-organized, and it is completely impossible to see that an extremely dangerous defensive battle was carried out before.

Firefly conceived many scenes.

The worst of them was that when she arrived, the fortress had already been breached, the city was burning in flames, black smoke columns were everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt meat. The best thing is that with the help of the master, the city wall was not broken by monsters. Many soldiers and civilians resisted the enemy's invasion on the city wall, and the battle was in full swing.

In short, she never even thought about such a peaceful scene!

How long is it? It's not even two hours. Could it be that the Kuroshio is over so soon? ! Warcraft are softies, retreating so fast?

After asking a city guard on the side of the road, Ying got the information she wanted smoothly.

"What, it was really solved so quickly..."

Sighing leisurely, the silver-haired girl couldn't help but feel happy for her master's victory and strength, but she was also a little unhappy: "It's a pity that this honor is not due to my credit...it is clearly a weapon, but it has no chance to be used. ,well……"

This feeling is really hard to explain.

Yingying naturally knew that this kind of thinking in her heart was wrong. How to use the tool is the master's business. As a prop, if she doesn't need it, then she should hide in the sheath and wait quietly. She just wants to come out. It is an immature performance, and even hinders the owner's judgment.

Although she knew the truth and understood its correctness, she was still a little scared.

Don't say anything about eunuchs, are you posting this kind of book review to hurt me...

It's fattening and talking about eunuchs, which is very sad.
