"There are acquaintances, Kaas—"

The man in the black knight training uniform looked at the bonfires in the dark forest under the rolling hills from a distance. The gray wolf mercenary group seemed to be sleeping in a wide cradle. The direction of the camp was silent. Only the wind from the west dived into the night, allowing the forest to respond to the rustling sound.

It seems to be Haitao.

It was like a monster screaming far away in the forest, and the howling sound spread far away.

The tall monster dragged the flesh and blood corpse of a female sentry out of the woods with huge bone claws—if Brando would have recognized it here, this huntress from the mountain people had seen him once in the afternoon. However, it turned into a lifeless corpse at this moment, the monster's empty chest made a creaking sound, and the orange flames in its eyes flashed, and he was a little dissatisfied with the black knight's understatement. "It's not your turn to teach me, little one."

The monster's voice was squeaky dry, reminiscent of clockwork that had fallen into disrepair.

It straightened up and threw the corpse down. The dead mercenary fell into a bush like a puppet, and the crackling of the branches stretched thirty-four feet away. But here is too far away from the camp of the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group, it is difficult for this sound to reach that far distance—especially in the windy night.

The black knight still frowned and glanced at his companion—

He saw a group of ghostly pale, gleaming translucent spiders squeaking straight down from the tree canopy...

'Pata' made a soft sound.

Brando was taken aback, watching the card that fell out of his pocket and lay flat on the ground under the lamp. The surface of the card had turned gray-it was the Wind Spirit Spider, and it had entered the cemetery. But he didn't feel heartache for the first time, but picked up the card, was stunned, and immediately raised his head to extinguish the oil lamp. The surroundings became pitch black, and the farthest light outside the tent was also a hundred feet away.

So fast.

He felt a little caught off guard.

In the evening, the gray wolf mercenary group chose this camp in a sheltered mountain col. Brando suggested to the'Maned Wolf Macaro' that it is better for the two of them to be a little farther apart to avoid mutual suspicion. Although Macaro and Buga were slightly surprised, they readily agreed. Brando didn't trust them, so how could they rest assured that the young men belonged to this group, so the two conceited parties reached a consensus very unanimously.

But Macaro would never expect that Brando wanted to use this reason to escape in the middle of the night.

The young man got out of the tent, his skin shrank slightly because of the cold air. Although the mountains of Chablis were immersed in the heat and high temperature throughout the long day, the temperature dropped sharply in the canyon at night, and travelers were not prepared. If you are in a tent or sleeping bag, you will catch the cold as well. Then he glanced around, and several shadowy figures in the distance could not escape his perception-although Brando has not been professionally trained, the perception of 3.7 energy levels is equivalent to those talents for ordinary people. , A person who can hear the sound of the tip of a needle falling a hundred meters away in the silent night.

He thought to himself that it seemed that Macaro was only suspicious of them and didn't harbor any malice against them.

After confirming that there were no other people closer, he cautiously got out. The young man is now fully armed, wearing nail armor, carrying all the necessary weapons and tools, dragging a backpack with one hand, and containing the necessary water and food. Then he approached a tent not far away and patted the cloth. After about a few seconds, a curious voice came from inside:

"Brando?"

"Romain, why are you here!" Brando had a black line, and he repeatedly confirmed that this was indeed Antitina's tent.

"A surprise!" The merchant lady chuckled softly in the tent, a little triumphant.

"Surprise you for your size."

Brando turned her head back angrily, and saw Antitina come out of Roman’s tent while pulling her hair. Her face was apologetic, but Brando knew that if Roman had something wrong, she would not care about it. Other people’s ideas. He sighed and apologized to the noble lady: "Thank you..."

Antitina was taken aback.

A faint smile appeared on the face of the noble daughter. She glanced at the tent behind Brando, and she said: "I can see, Lord Lord, you really like Miss Romance." She spoke with her mouth. .

Brando nodded.

He has the temperament of the merchant lady, not only because he feels kind to such a girl with unfettered temperament, this kindness may come from Brando's soul. On the other hand, Miss Roman is the first close person he met in this world, and he has a special affection for her.

Besides, this merchant lady is smart and free, and few people would dislike her.

Although Brando is only nineteen years old in this life, the one and two souls in his body determine that he is no longer the shy young man. He understands what he should pursue and what responsibility he should pay. He opened the corner of the tent door, and saw that the business lady behind was smiling and looking at him.

"Ready?" he asked.

Roman and Antitina both nodded.

Brando raised his head, as if following his movements, more than a dozen figures emerged from the dozens of tents around him. They didn’t need to talk to each other, they began to put away their tents quietly. Although these mercenaries were fully armed and their belts were covered with various metal weapons, there was a little noise during his actions. It will not be sent out either.

It was the first time Antitina met Brando’s "summoned from the card" men, but her bright eyes soon flashed a hint of wonder: a group of well-trained mercenaries, he is Where did you find these people

Lubis's mercenaries can leave a reputation in the long river of history, and naturally they will not be in vain. The type of creatures summoned by the destiny card symbolizes a collection of concepts. In other words, these twelve mercenaries are a group of'heroes' who can best reflect the advantages of Rubis mercenaries, with loyalty, honor, high morale, and discipline. Strict, and not afraid of death and pain like real creatures, they are probably the best soldiers that have ever appeared in this world.

Unfortunately, Brando believes that the number is still too small.

But even so, it was enough to make Antitina speechless. She quickly couldn't help but touched her cheek, then looked at Brando, suspecting that she was dreaming.

—It’s not that this noble daughter has never been in contact with mercenaries. The nobles will deal with these guys more or less because of their own properties. Of course, except for those scumbags and scum, most mercenaries have more or less contact with soldiers. .

But it's just that.

The best mercenary Antitina has ever seen is the gray wolf mercenary group that has been with her for the past few days. The team led by the "Maned Wolf" Macaro will naturally not be a general, but can be with Bran Comparing these twelve people with multiple hands, it is simply a difference between the clouds and the mud. The inherent indiscretion of mercenaries can no longer be seen in these people, they seem to have something that is hard to see in mercenaries—

The girl frowned, she couldn't confirm what it was for a while.

But then, with a flash of inspiration, she remembered the difference-pride and honor. She took a breath. Few mercenaries who rely on fighting to survive will always maintain a sacred sense of honor for their profession, which is more similar to the sense of honor of a knight. She couldn't help but glanced at Brando again, and felt that these people were not mercenaries at all, but the retainers brought out by the young man from the family.

The more she thought about it, the more certain she became.

The young nobleman broke away from the family to break out of his own world. This was like the plot described in the legend. So that when she first heard Brando say this, there was still a little yearning-after all, anyone has a spirit of yearning for romance and adventure in their hearts. Even Antitina, who has received the most orthodox education since childhood, is no exception.

Assisting a self-made young knight to finally lay a piece of the world, this kind of story is an irresistible temptation for a girl her age and receiving this level of education.

But now it seems that this lord is not entirely self-made—

She seemed to have discovered a little secret with a hint of surprise, of course she was not depressed by it. On the contrary, the noble daughter was relieved in her heart-she convinced herself that this at least showed that Brando was prepared, not the kind of blindly acting, and only wanted to imitate the antiquity, full of enthusiasm for the blue knight.

But Brando obviously didn't expect that his subordinate would have so many associations just because he saw a group of "card soldiers" under him. Of course, if he knew what Antitina was thinking at the moment, he would definitely find a way to come a few more times, so that he might gather a lot of loyal retainers without any effort.

But he has no intention of caring about these at the moment.

He soon found out that he was in a little trouble. The twelve Rubys mercenaries quickly cleaned up the camp here, but when they gathered together and were preparing to wait for the next order, Brando suddenly noticed that there were two figures from the gray wolf in the distance. The direction of the camp of the mercenary group came over. He frowned immediately, he had already seen one of the two people walking over—

It's a gray-haired young man Reddy.

Brando immediately wondered if the other party had noticed the movement here, but he immediately pressed this suspicion, because the two people were obviously not walking towards them. He calculated the opponent's route, but should be inserted between their camp and the gray wolf mercenary group camp, he was slightly startled-these two guys want to go outside the camp

Insider

Brando immediately thought of a possibility.
