The Amber Sword

Act 98 Rosalind Knight

The featureless early morning in the Rosalin area arrived when the first ray of sunlight hit the Qiusangze River. Although the undulating mounds in the distance were still shrouded in a thin layer of morning mist, behind the mist the forest The clear chirping of birds was heard, so peaceful and peaceful that it was hard to believe that a battle of life and death had occurred here just one night ago.

If it weren't for the broken carriages of the caravan and the remains of the aberrations exposed to the cold morning wind, they would still be scattered around the camp.

But there were far fewer strange corpses around the camp than at night. Brando asked Naxin's scavengers to bury the extra corpses in the nearby woodland, leaving only seven or eight that were relatively complete. .

After all, the death of more than a hundred aberrations here is too eye-catching, and Rosalin's knights would have no way to explain it if they found them. Na Xin only thought of this later. He originally wanted to use this incident as a talking point, but then he issued a silence order and strictly ordered his subordinates not to tell anyone about what happened that night.

He lacks trust in the villains and desperadoes under his command, but they are definitely very smart when it comes to their own wealth and life.

The guys who escaped the night before were gradually recovered one after another. Some of their bodies were found on the beach of the Qiusangze River. In fact, they were not far from the camp. They were killed by strange monsters before they ran a few hundred meters away. Caught up and tore into pieces.

There were a few who escaped by chance, but they probably would not dare to return to Rosalind City in a short time. After all, the scavengers always had only one way to deal with such guys who abandoned their companions, and that was to chop off their hands and feet and throw them into the wilderness. middle.

These traitors will be wanted, and they will either spend the rest of their lives incognito and leave the industry forever, or simply head to the Swift Plains to seek opportunities to get ahead in that chaotic area.

Of course, more people disappear from people's sight forever after choosing to take this road.

Brando watched Naxin and his men busy digging holes in the forest. Then the monster's body was transported over in a carriage, thrown into the pit, and covered with soil. Then use grass blades and shrubs as camouflage. Everything was done to perfection, as if they were doing this all the time. But as for what was buried, it was hard to say - anyway, it was definitely not the corpse of an aberrant creature.

In fact, in Brando's opinion, there is no need to be so troublesome. He just has the mentality that if he can save one thing, it will be one thing. If he is really discovered by the knights of Rosalin, it will not be a big deal, even if he is the lord of Rosalin. What can we do to him?

Of course he could see that Na Xin and his gang of men were trying to please him, but that was fine. Sometimes it was better to make them feel awe than to be grateful. Especially for these outlaws.

At seven or eight o'clock, the sun began to become brighter and dispersed the fog, but the caravan still showed no sign of departure, because Nasin and his men were still arguing about how to go to Rosalin - the carriage was too damaged. There was too much, not enough to transport all the black crystals, and since the attack the previous night, no one wanted to stay in the wilderness, but they were reluctant to throw away the extra black crystals.

This dilemma put these scavengers in trouble. They first approached Mr. Liu hoping to borrow a carriage from him, but the latter rejected them without hesitation.

So the matter had to be let go. After all, these desperadoes did not dare to bargain with a swordsman in the realm of heaven and man.

Brando can help these people easily.

After all, he has the suspended celestial sphere sent to him by Tata, which is a higher-level space equipment than the dimensional hole. Not to mention several tons of black crystals, it is easy to load the entire fleet into it. But he didn't speak. Because he is very clear about the virtues of these smugglers. Whether they are in Eruin or on the border between Madala and Jiufeng, no one of them is full of misdeeds and notorious.

How could a normal person do this?

Although they saved his life, it was considered even if he also saved their lives. And the life debt these guys carried alone was probably enough to make them die ten thousand times without being undeserved.

It's just that Brando doesn't want to go on a killing spree because of this. He thinks that he is not a judge, even if the Silver Queen disagrees with his ideas. That was because she had plotted against him and the people around him, so he had to fight back.

Perhaps these people deserve death. But it's not his turn to arbitrate yet.

But at least don't expect him to take the initiative to help, let alone use the things Miss Tata gave to these people. Brando thought it was a kind of blasphemy to the former.

He glanced at these guys who were arguing with each other and began to feel impatient. He originally expected these local snakes to take him into Rosalin City, but now he had to find a more direct way. He found Mr. Liu and Huang Huo and expressed to them that he was in a hurry. This time, Mr. Liu made no excuses. They told him that they had actually wanted to leave for a long time and were just waiting for him to make a decision.

This made Brando a little flattered, but he also knew that such respect came from the awe of the powerful strength he showed last night.

Although the Yufeng clan is not yet asking for anything from him, without any conflict of interest, anyone can understand the difference between making friends with a strong person and offending a strong person.

But just as the three were about to leave, Brando unexpectedly discovered that humans appeared on the other side of the Qiusangze River. They were a group of knights wearing shining silver armor and riding wingless dragons. There was a swallow-tail flag with the crown emblem. Based on some information Nasin told him about Rosalin, he judged at a glance that these knights should be Lord Rosalin's men.

Brando couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that there were actually Rosalin's knights patrolling here. When these knights saw Brando, Naxin and others, they couldn't help showing expressions of surprise.

Brando saw these people tightening the reins and slowing down the two-legged wingless dragon. They seemed to be discussing something with each other, and then one person came out of the crowd and came to the Qiusangze River, rushing across the river. They shouted:

"Martha, which way are you on?"

"What way?" Brando was about to turn around and ask Na Xin, but saw that the scavengers had stopped arguing when Knight Rosalin appeared. Na Xin walked out from among them, saying apologetically After glancing at him, she probably realized that her previous behavior might have been a bit rude and had made this 'adult' a little unhappy.

However, greed can always blind people's hearts, and for desperadoes like them, there is nothing they can do about it.

He walked past Brando and looked at the knights on the other side of the river, as if trying to figure out who they were. However, it was obviously a bit difficult to do this through the full-body armor and the almost airtight metal mask. In the end, he could only tentatively answer: "I am Na Xin, Pan Linde's Na Xin, the gentleman opposite. "

"Naxin, 'Camel', it turns out to be you. Oh my God, we thought you could never come back." Before the leading knight could answer, a group of subordinates behind him started making noises, and some even opened their visors. , revealing unshaven, weathered faces.

However, Brando noticed that the eyes of these people were shining brightly, and most of them were scanning the caravan carriage, like some greedy reptiles patrolling their treasures.

Na Xin's eyes were not bad, and he couldn't help but cursed secretly when he saw this, knowing that he was probably going to bleed heavily this time. Although within Rosalin's territory, the army and the smugglers mostly maintained some kind of private tacit understanding, as long as After crossing the Qiusangze River, soldiers would not seize the smugglers' goods and confiscate them. After all, the lord of Rosalin also understood that the prosperity of his territory was inseparable from these scavengers.

But this time there are some differences. First of all, the business on the black road has been completely cut off. Probably these knights are not afraid of doing anything to kill the chicken to retrieve the eggs. Anyway, from now on, there will be neither chickens nor eggs.

The second key point is that his carriage was quite broken and he had to turn to these knights for help, which gave them an excuse to blackmail him.

When the strange monster attacked, Simin wished that these Rosalin knights would appear in front of him immediately, but at this time, he even cried out that it was unlucky and just hoped that the other party had not appeared. He glanced at Brando and Mr. Liu, I couldn't help but regret a little. If I hadn't offended these adults earlier, I might still be able to rely on them to say a few words now.

I just regret that I am too obsessed with money.

But at this time, the knights on the other side of the river noticed Brando and his party - because it was really difficult not to notice that although Rosalin was close to Jiufeng, she was not Jiufeng, at least what Brando saw. The equipment and style of the knights are not much different from the knights he saw in Eruin and Cruz. The decorations on the clothes and the decorative styles of the weapons and armor may be somewhat different, but generally they are more Western-style knights.

But these knights themselves are not white people with obvious characteristics like the Cruzes and Faenzans. In fact, they are relatively short, with thick brown hair, and darker skin pigments. Compared with people like Naxin More like, there is a big difference from Brando at first glance.

So they saw Mr. Liu and Huang Huo in the crowd at a glance, who were dressed in costumes that had a strong Jiu Feng aura, not to mention that their black hair and black eyes were eye-catching anywhere except Jiu Feng. Secondly, Brando, the 'foreigner', is even rarer than the Jiufeng people. After all, there will still be businessmen and swordsmen from Jiufeng in Rosalin who communicate and settle there, but the Cruz people and the Eruin people have been there for thousands of years. rare.
