Seeing this scene, the warrior stopped. He turned around, put down the head of the giant beast in his hand, and walked up to meet Kili and others.
The old man, the wounded man, and the comatose man in front of him are all his father's most capable subordinates, and they can also be regarded as Joshua's elders - of course they are his subordinates now, but the truth cannot be said like this. Faced with these, they have known each other since childhood. He must go over to greet the person.
However, the moment the two sides encountered each other, the warrior frowned. He stopped and looked at the green-haired half-elf with a puzzled expression. Then he turned to the white-haired mage and asked: "Mr. Lawrence, this … who is it?"
"ah?"
Stunned for a moment, Keely, who was walking in front, had not yet reacted to this situation.
He had met Joshua when he was a child and taught him how to use weapons under the instructions of the old earl. Although the two parties had not seen each other for many years, he did not feel that the face in front of him was unfamiliar because he could imagine what the young man would look like when he grew up. , but the half-elf warrior never expected that Joshua couldn't seem to remember him at all, and he immediately felt extremely hurt in his heart.
"Don't be stupid, your helmet fell off."
Feng's sighing voice came from beside him: "He has never seen your face at all. It's normal for him not to recognize you."
Hearing the word helmet, Joshua immediately understood: "Teacher Keely!"
After finishing speaking, the warrior's expression suddenly became strange - if nothing else, the green-haired half-elf in front of him had an extremely handsome face. Although the side of his face was covered with dense magic patterns, it did not reduce his charm at all. Of course, More importantly, this guy seemed to be a little smaller than him, and had nothing to do with the stern and majestic tall warrior in his impression!
Even though Joshua's face has strong lines, he is still a young man in his early twenties, while the other person is in his father's generation, at least forty or fifty years old, and looks younger than him... No wonder he usually uses The masked helmet covered the face, and the magic pattern was second to none. The senior men 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 of the group of knights must be very low.
Feng didn't think there was anything strange. He bowed respectfully to Joshua, and then said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Lord, this is not the place to talk. If you can, please wait in the fortress conference room." After a while, after Kili and I sent Zolgen to medical treatment, we immediately went to report on the situation of this black tide."
"There's no need to be so formal, Mr. Lawrence."
Waving his hand, Joshua sighed: "It's my fault this time. There was no contact for several days, but I still didn't react. I thought it was the reason why everything was safe..."
"This is a problem of communication being blocked. No one could have imagined that the black tide would start so quickly. It is not the young master... Your fault, Lord, not to mention that there were not many casualties until the end. That is to say, the city wall collapsed and needed to be rebuilt. Once again.”
After receiving the words, Kili shook his head and said: "Now that the demonic tide has receded, and before the next golden monster appears, they probably don't dare to come out. We have enough time to repair it. To be honest, I believe Compared with the past, the loss this time is not very big.”
Turning his eyes slightly, he saw the shiny silver egg-shaped object held by the warrior in his hand. His instinctive curiosity made the half-elf couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"
"This is what I found inside the giant beast."
Joshua didn't take it seriously. He explained briefly: "The mammoth giant beast usually eats grass for a living. Although it is not docile, it will never actively attack other creatures. And as the top of the ecological layer, if it weren't for it, the giant beast would never attack other creatures." May appear in the beast tide."
Feng on the side stared at the silver egg, his brows gradually wrinkled.
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: "Zolgen's injury is very serious. If he is not stabilized, his strength may decline..."
"You don't need to explain this kind of thing to me, just go ahead."
"Then see you in the conference room later, Lord."
—Outside the city, south of the Black Forest Fortress.
The silver-haired girl rode a black war horse and galloped through the white snowfield. The horse's hooves splashed snow dust, leaving marks one after another.
After a while, the war horse stopped running. Now, in front of Yingying's eyes, is the tall city wall on the side of the Black Forest Fortress facing the snowy field. The huge gray-white rock is almost the same color as the surrounding environment. At a glance, there is no trace of it at all.
The reason why they had been running back and forth in the snowfield in the past two days was because the heavy fog interfered with communications. Joshua and she could not find the specific range of the fortress at all, so they could only move towards the direction of the visually observed mountains, and then along the I walked around the foot of the mountain - luckily I found it in the end and it was not in vain.
Arriving at the gate of the fortress, the girl was surprised to find that the soldiers guarding the city had calm faces. It seemed that the shrill alarm sound coming from the communication array had never sounded not long ago, and the people on the city wall He also looked curiously at this young-looking silver-haired girl riding a war horse, and guessed her origins.
Yingying didn't think too much. She simply dismounted, held Hei in hand, and showed the name tag proving her identity to the city guards on the city wall. The light flashed, and her name and origin were projected in the air. This kind of brand 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."
While passing through the passage, she was told this information by a soldier who already knew her identity. Although she could sense the location of her contractor, the silver-haired girl politely thanked the soldier and walked out of the passage. .
What appeared in front of her was a street with people coming and going.
Most of the civilians and uninjured soldiers were carrying construction materials back and forth and distributing supplies, while many injured warriors were standing in front of the doors of various medical rooms waiting. Some even treated their wounds on the street, while a few silver warriors The archers suffered relatively little damage and were already running around to maintain order at this time.
But none of the mages in robes appeared. Yingying noticed sharply that there was a figure in gray robes at the other end of the street. The man covered his head and limped along the stone path. It seemed that 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 powerful pertinence is of no use in the face of the black tide whose monster attributes are calculated in hundreds. Except for some specially advanced war mages, this is basically the case. Casting a large number of spells will cause them to suffer from mental backlash for a period of time after ending the state of mental stress and have extremely headaches.
But no matter what, this city can be said to be in order, and there is no trace of an extremely dangerous city defense battle before.
Hotaru has conceived many scenes.
The worst of all was that when she arrived, the fortress had been breached, the city was burning in flames, black smoke pillars were rising, 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 breached by the monsters. Many soldiers and civilians resisted the enemy's invasion on the city wall, and the battle was in full swing.
In short, she had never even thought about such a peaceful scene!
How long has it been? It's not even two hours. Could it be that the Kuroshio is over so soon? ! Warcraft are all weaklings, why did they retreat so quickly
After asking a city guard on the roadside, Firefly got the information she wanted smoothly.
"What? It was actually 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 I don't have any credit for this honor... It's obviously a weapon, but I don't get the chance to be used. well… "
This feeling is really hard to explain.
Firefly naturally knew that this idea in her heart was wrong. How to use the tool was the owner's business. As a prop, if it was not needed, then she should hide in the sheath and wait quietly. She just wanted to appear. It is a sign of immaturity and may even hinder the owner's judgment.
Although she knew the truth and understood its correctness, she was still a little scared.
Stop talking about eunuchs. Are you posting this kind of book review to attack me
It's very sad to be fattened and talk about being a eunuch.
