Wearing the ranger-style leather armor on her body, Natalie's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated a few minutes. This was her first patrol and also her first mission—every ranger would have a similar mission, and Once such a task arises, then it is time to put aside the 'apprentice' title.
Although in the eyes of real rangers, it is just a change from a rookie to a novice. Only after completing a series of tasks can they be truly called rangers, but for those trainee rangers, the next thing, That is a long time later, and what they care about is the present.
Especially when a trainee ranger becomes the tail of the crane.
Natalie was born in a witcher family, she has a very good foundation, and considerable family skills - although it is not a secret skill, it is definitely much better than other rangers, but this kind of Natalie has become this The last of a class of Rangers to pass.
There is a reason for this, of course—
Damn, cold-blooded, heartless, ice witch from Winterwood...
When Natalie thought of her instructor, she instinctively cursed in her heart. If she didn't notice it at the beginning, then what happened afterwards was enough for her to understand that her instructor deliberately Fix her again.
'Natalie, standardize the movement, and add another hundred thrusts! '
'A hundred more times! '
'Double the training in the afternoon! '
…
Such voices that appear every day are simply nightmares for Natalie; after all, the most important assessment for Rangers is sparring, during the six to nine months of training. Whoever accumulates 100 victories first (not one-on-one. It's a melee of the whole team. The one who can stand at the end is the winner) will enter the next link, which is the task at this time .
Undoubtedly, Natalie, who endures three to five times the training volume of ordinary rangers every day, is so difficult to win in the melee at the end of the day—although she is working hard every day, but because she has 'Anyone who beats Natalie. You can get lunch, beat twice, and dinner will appear on the table! 'Under such conditions, almost every time a war starts, she is the first to fall.
In this regard, Natalie is quite resentful.
And when most of her apprentice rangers at the same time put aside the title of 'apprentice', just when she thought that her opponents had become fewer and could truly win, her instructor joined the melee, and. What's even more hateful is that every time she is knocked down. The opponent withdrew from the chaos.
This made the melee look more like a unilateral beating of her.
And precisely because of this reason, she was placed in the trainee ranger training camp for nine months, not one more day, nor one less day.
As for the penultimate apprentice ranger
Already at the end of the fifth month, she graduated with the penultimate trainee ranger. To put it simply, from the sixth month until the last day of the ninth month, Natalie was in Lanzhou. Natalie wanted to resist this, but every resistance was a more severe reprimand (corporal punishment).
After several times in a row, Natalie couldn't help thinking of fleeing, but every time she tried to escape, she failed. The furthest one was caught without leaving the range of 50 yards from her tent. It's not that her instructor is so powerful, it's just that she issued another order - "Whoever can catch the escaped Natalie can have extra meals for lunch and dinner, and those who accumulate three times can get a day off!" '
Such an order is quite attractive to the rangers, especially the latter-you know, an official ranger has only one holiday in a month; all rangers are the same, including The same is true for captain-level Rangers.
As for the so-called festival
That time was the busiest time for the rangers. Facing the countless tourists who had integrated into Shaker, whoever dared to ask for a vacation would definitely be pulled out of the tent by the stern female cavalry captain with a scabbard.
Therefore, Natalie suffered quite a lot in the subsequent training.
Those rangers who longed for a vacation would even rush towards her with bright eyes when she was training, and whenever she was knocked to the ground, her instructor would give that blow as promised. Give her Rangers a day off, and cut her dinner off.
'Don't tell me you're training, accidents can happen at any time, you can't deal with it, it's your mistake! '
Such words, when she wanted to explain, fell on her head and covered her face, making Natalie continue training hungry without tears.
However, no matter how hard the days are, there will always be an end. When I think of her cold-blooded instructor who left yesterday because of a mission, she cannot continue to train her, and there is no suitable instructor in the ranger camp for the time being, and the other captain: Kai , thought she was good enough to graduate.
At that moment, Natalie was on the verge of crying.
Hugging the captain who is always chattering, bouncing and jumping—Natalie admitted that she used a wooden sword to practice fiercely with the tied opponent with a wooden sword, but she never thought that the opponent was like this cute.
'Don't be too happy, Lancelot left because of the mission, that is to say, once the mission is over, she will still come back—think about it, according to that guy's behavior, if you don't do it during the mission What a great move, and will she bring you back for retraining? '
However, the other party's words immediately made the excited Natalie feel as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.
Because, Natalie is very sure that what Kai said is a fact, according to her perverted personality of the instructor, she will definitely do such a thing.
Therefore, last night, Natalie had already made up her mind—even in order not to go to that perverted instructor, she must work hard to complete various tasks during the mission. Let the other party have nothing to say!
And luckily. When she went to report for duty this morning. A task appeared—
"This is a thief named Jeter. Recently, it has been reported that they are very active in the city of Shaker, and many tourists are reporting them. However, these guys are very cunning and have not left any special clues. Well, it’s only a few days of detention. There’s no way to solve the problem fundamentally... So, we need people to get all the stolen goods!”
While talking, the patrol captain took out a few portraits.
"This is Jeter and his accomplices. You keep an eye on them. It's best to capture them in one fell swoop when they attack!"
When these portraits appeared, Natalie imprinted them in her mind, and after confirming that there would be no mistakes, she hurriedly ran to the outside of the post; therefore, she did not see the patrol in the post at all. The rangers including the captain smiled shrewdly.
Of course. Even if she saw it, Natalie wouldn't care.
after all. Now, her mind is full of doing her best and staying away from that demon instructor.
"Is it really okay for such a simple little girl?"
After Natalie left, a ranger in the outpost asked.
"Simple? It's just a muscle. In terms of skill, the sum of us is no match for her!" The patrol captain glanced at his subordinates angrily. I've seen it... tsk, even if it's me, I can only admire it!"
"Actually, I think we should admire Captain Lancelot even more! To be able to find a successor like Natalie..."
"Silence!"
Before the ranger finished speaking, he was glared at by the patrol captain. The former also realized that he had said something wrong, and immediately stuck out his tongue, not daring to say anything.
Although some things can be guessed by everyone, they cannot be said.
"We can't talk nonsense about Captain Lancelot until the new fate appears, you know?"
The patrol captain asked solemnly.
"Yes, Captain!"
The five rangers replied at the same time.
The patrol captain nodded in satisfaction, but then, the patrol captain frowned—for the female captains in the ranger camp, although he felt a little awkward as a male, this did not prevent him from The recognition of the strength and ability of these female captains.
Even, several times of martial arts competitions showed the extraordinaryness of these female captains.
However, recently there has been news that these female captains are leaving the ranger camp.
I don't know where this kind of news came from, but it spread very fast, and almost any captain with a little ability in the ranger camp would know about it.
Everyone has mixed feelings about this.
However, one thing is certain, that is doubts!
They were all wondering why those female captains left.
Although many people have rumored that it is because of the inequality between men and women after the competition between men and women, anyone who has really understood the composition of the ranger camp at this moment will not believe such rumors.
Just kidding, including the oldest group of captains, they all really supported the female captains headed by Captain Elsie. Whoever dares to come out and criticize is just asking for trouble.
However, the departure of these female captains is also a fact.
Therefore, most of the rangers are wondering.
"Check your equipment and get on your horse!"
Taking a deep breath, the patrol captain threw aside his doubts and shouted loudly—although he was full of doubts in his heart, he did not forget his patrol mission; Different, what they need to do is to maintain the safety of the entire Shaker.
This is inseparable from people.
…
This is the guy!
Natalie stood in a shadow on the corner of the street, staring closely at a few people not far away—she didn’t ride a horse, and even wore a cloak over the leather armor; riding a horse in Shaker was too conspicuous It's not suitable for stalking at all, and coupled with the leather armor of the newly promoted ranger, it almost tells the identity of the visitor.
So every new Ranger knows how to cover himself.
What's more, it was Natalie who came from a witcher family.
In fact, she is no worse than some veterans, and some details have been carefully concealed, and such carefulness. Naturally, it brought quite good luck. Just walked through three streets. Natalie found her target—after comparing it with the portrait in her mind, she immediately confirmed it was correct.
However, Natalie did not rush forward in a hurry.
She didn't forget what the patrol captain said before, 'everybody gets the stolen goods'.
And after that, during the six-hour wait, Natalie hid motionless like an old hunter. Knowing the habits of her prey—the other party is very cunning, this is already known information, and after comparison, Natalie thinks so.
From the selection of the target, the opponent has already performed vividly.
First of all, Natalie saw a few obviously very rich people walking in front of them, but Jeter and the others didn't look the same - no doubt, they understood that if they really attacked such rich people, In the end, they will be the ones who get into trouble.
Secondly. Some people who seem to be down and out, but obviously have extraordinary skills. They won't make a move either—in the face of temptation, they were able to examine their own abilities and make a move. Natalie expressed her appreciation for this group of thieves.
Of course, what should be caught is still to be caught!
No matter how appreciative she is, she will not be able to return to the subordinates of that demon instructor!
Time passed by every minute and every second. When the sun was setting, two figures appeared in Natalie's vision—a man and a woman dressed casually, but some trinkets were delicate enough. Obviously, they were a couple. Brothers and sisters from a well-to-do family... a husband and wife are right.
When Natalie saw the man pityfully sweeping the dust off the lady's shoulders, she immediately changed her view of the relationship between the two.
And the lady's slightly confused smile made Natalie understand that the opportunity she had been waiting for for a long time had appeared.
The family is well-off, but it is not a wealthy family, and there are no bodyguards around, and it seems that there is no danger in itself. Is there anything easier to attack than this kind of existence
If she were Jeter, she would not let go of such a goal.
In fact, just as Natalie guessed, Jeter brought his subordinates in front of the man and the woman; however, something that was beyond Natalie's expectation was that it should look good A man and a woman who cheated... No, it should be that man, who has a rather tough side.
Faced with such a tough side, Natalie expressed her appreciation, and at the same time, quickened her pace - Jeter is definitely not a kind person, although a thief is not a robber, but sometimes, she doesn't mind making a cameo , especially when it looks weak and deceitful to the target, but it's just hard on the lips.
Bullying the weak and fearing the hard will also exist on Lorant, and it can even be found everywhere.
Sure enough, just as Natalie expected, facing the 'seemingly tough' target, Jeter tore off his gentle disguise and took out a knife.
It's not a very long knife, slightly longer than a fruit knife, but shorter than a dagger, and with the thin blade, its use is self-evident.
"live… "
Seeing that Jeter took out the knife, Natalie shouted loudly; however, she just yelled out the word 'stop', and she swallowed the next word involuntarily—that expression on her face Confused lady, although she still has that expression, what happened to the 'hand cannon' that appeared in her hand
That's right, it's the 'hand cannon'!
Natalie, who came from a family of demon hunters and had been training in the ranger camp for nearly a year, would definitely not mistake that special individual heavy fire weapon—although it was only similar to a grenade gun, it was more powerful than an ordinary grenade gun. It is easier to use and has an extremely low failure rate, so it is deeply loved by some demon hunters.
Wait, witcher...
The words that flashed in her heart caused Natalie to feel a strange feeling in her heart when she saw the other party before, and now she finally understood where this strange feeling came from: she met the same kind.
Perhaps the other party's face is confused, but walking, habits, and even standing position are unique to demon hunters.
"You think if you take an iron bucket, I will..."
Jeter, a self-proclaimed excellent thief, didn't know the weapon "hand cannon". The thief was still holding on, but before he could finish his words, a strong hand pinched his throat and lifted him into the air.
"etc!"
"Carter..."
The former was Natalie's cry, and she knew very well that once the demon hunter made a move. The thief in front of him is definitely not immune; and the latter is Dodo Mam.
Shout out to the former. The inanimate king wouldn't care at all. However, the latter...
"What's the matter, Dodo?"
The lifeless king turned his head and looked at the confused witcher with a smile.
"This is Shake, don't kill people, we still have to see mom..."
Dodo Mam tugged on the sleeve of the inanimate king's coat.
"OK!"
The inanimate king would not refuse the request of the witcher in front of him as before, and threw Jeter to the ground as soon as he loosened his fingers, and then. Pulled by the sleeves of the cheerful Dodo Mama, he continued to walk forward.
As for the thief and the rushing female ranger
For the former, it promised Doduo. Is Mu naturally not going to make a move, and even the latter will help it deal with the former, as for the latter itself
The inanimate king is not annoying.
Therefore, when Dodo Mama skipped forward and smiled at the other party to express his gratitude, the inanimate king also nodded at the other party.
Then, the two figures quickly disappeared into the crowd.
For such a situation, Natalie was not surprised, and was even used to it; after all, in her impression. When facing strangers, my father and brothers are like this. It can be said that this can be regarded as the tradition of demon hunters towards strangers!
Turning her head, Natalie looked at Jeter who was still in shock—
"Boy, you are really lucky! After picking for a day, you actually found two demon hunters to attack—and, your luck is really good, if it wasn't for the lady named... Well, it seems that the lady named Duo Duo spoke to you If you beg for mercy, the other one will definitely break your neck without mercy!"
Natalie teased while patting the other's stiff cheek.
"Tsk tsk, my first mission has been completed like this—it seems that my luck is also good, I hope my luck will be as good as this... But, why is the name Doduo so familiar? It seems that I heard it somewhere Pass… "
Natalie was puzzled, but the movements of her hands were not slow. The handcuffs skillfully handcuffed the thieves together, and then she kicked the leader Jeter, "Hey, don't try to run away. Or break your legs, you know?"
Instinctively, Natalie said the words that Lancelot often said to her.
…
While Natalie was escorting a few thieves to the prison, the lifeless king and Dodo Mam still passed through the city of Shaker and walked towards the six towers of the central castle of the parish— Her mother had written back and would be there waiting for her.
"Are you really all right?"
Doduo. Mam looked at the inanimate king beside him. In the palms that both sides had been holding together, the one that belonged to Doduo showed a trace of sweat. As long as she doesn't know anything, at least, when faced with unfair treatment, she knows how to pick up her hand cannon.
In the same way, she also understands the meaning of the six towers of the central castle that Alcatel entered with her.
If she didn't know about it before, but she didn't know about Dart, Quasi and others changing into bat vampires from time to time, then she wasn't born into a witcher family at all.
"Of course! Remember, what I told you?" The inanimate king replied with a smile, and it said slowly: "Where do you want to go, Alcatel will accompany you there! Even God, can't stop... "
"Um!"
Duo Duo Mu nodded slightly, and then suddenly thought of something, she blinked and asked, "Carter, have you seen God?"
"I've seen it!"
The inanimate king replied thus.
"What is God like?"
Immediately, Duoduo Mamu became excited, and she kept asking.
"It's almost like a kitten or a puppy!"
The inanimate king answered.
"Really? So can we have one?"
Duoduo Maam obviously did not doubt the words of the inanimate king.
"If Duoduo wants it, I will catch one!"
The Inanimate King replied with a smile.
Following the question and answer, the backs of the inanimate king and Dodo Maim were stretched in the setting sun, and they were getting closer and closer to the six towers of the central castle.
