"Thanks to you this time, Miss Lisanna." Kordak was held in Vera's arms and went to talk to Lisanna. Although the injuries on his body are almost healed now, Kordak is determined to take advantage of Vera, so he has been staying in Vera's arms for the past two days, letting Vera control the horse.
"No matter what, I disobeyed military orders and will definitely be punished when I go back." Lisanna shook her head.
"Hey, Alexander is not such a rigid person. Aren't you doing this all for him... us? I'll tell him later and he won't do anything cruel to you." Kordak said nonchalantly. .
"Thank you very much, Mr. Kordak." Lisanna did not refuse.
"Tch, I sound like you and His Highness are very familiar with each other." Vera muttered.
"We saved our lives, how can we not be familiar with it?" Kordak looked at Alexander who was exploring the road in the distance ahead, and then said arrogantly.
"Can we have some face?" Vera said disdainfully: "You haven't made any achievements since you met Saron. If it hadn't been for Xiao Lei, the three of us would have been reimbursed."
"Xiao Lei is my younger brother!" Kordak didn't blush at all. He said confidently: "The younger brother's credit is also the elder brother's credit!"
"Tch!" Vera curled her lips.
Lisanna lowered her head and looked at Regna who was slumped in her arms, and couldn't help but be curious: just this half-grown boy defeated a powerful enemy that even His Highness could not cope with, and saved the three of them
"He is the youngest among these people, right?" Lisanna had such an idea. She drove the horse carelessly and looked down at the handsome young man who was frowning in pain even in a coma.
"Well..." Regnar let out a slight groan, and then opened his eyes with difficulty.
"Are you awake?" Lisanna asked softly.
"Ah, it's okay, it's just that my body still hurts a bit, Ai..." Regnar replied casually, but mid-sentence he realized something was wrong. He just thought the person holding him was Irene, so he spoke very casually. But when he woke up, he suddenly realized that the person was not Irene. The two people had completely different auras!
Regnar was startled, and then turned around to see Lisanna looking at him with her clear and soft eyes. Her short pink hair looked particularly cute in the winter sunshine.
"You, you, you... Hello..." Regnar stammered.
"Hello, I am Lisanna, a member of the Golden Eagle Knights Guards." Lisanna smiled gently.
"My name is Regnar... I am a mercenary." Regnar said. Because he was being held by a strange and cute girl, his heart was beating very fast and his face turned red unconsciously.
But Lisanna seemed to have no sense of shyness at all. She had been living and fighting with the men of the Golden Eagle Knights in the past few years, and she no longer cared about these physical contacts. What's more, it's separated by such thick clothes
But Lisanna was careful and noticed something strange about Regnar. She asked, "Is your injury okay? You don't seem to be in a good condition right now."
"Ah, I..." Regnar hesitated. Although he was currently entangled with three women, the number of women Regnar had contact with was only four even if he brought Vera with him. Therefore, he was actually embarrassed for a moment.
"I'm fine..." Regnar said reluctantly, "But let me down..."
"Huh?" Lisanna was stunned: "Aren't you injured?"
"It shouldn't be too much of a problem..." Regnar said with difficulty. He had already caught a glimpse of Kordak and Vera with his peripheral vision, who were holding back their laughter. Hell, this scene was seen by the two gossips. If the news reaches Yi Ni or Annie, wouldn't they be skinned alive? !
"There is no danger now, so please don't be brave." Lisanna said seriously.
"..." Regnar had an expression on his face that said he couldn't live any longer.
"Hahahaha!" Kordak and Vera finally couldn't help laughing loudly: "Okay, okay, I promise I won't tell anyone when I go back, so don't worry!"
"Is this a trap you set for me, boss?" Regna asked with a dark face.
"How can this be said to be a trap?" Kordak looked aggrieved: "Boss, am I not rewarding you?"
"You, you, you..." Regnar held it in for a long time and could only say word by word: "Forget it! You! Cruel!"
"..." Lisanna looked at the two people arguing with some confusion.
Now that he had admitted defeat, Regnar became a bachelor instead. He moved his buttocks to get himself into a more comfortable position, and then asked: "Speaking of which, Miss Lisanna, why do you think I'm here?" Are you trying to be brave?"
"You are just a level 14 assassin. You can repel enemies that even His Highness cannot defeat. Of course, your strength is part of this, but I think you must also be brave. So I guess you often try to be brave." Lisa Na answered rationally.
After hearing this, Regnar was stunned for a long time, and then murmured: "She really looks like her!"
"Huh?" Lisanna was stunned.
"You are very similar to a friend of mine, her name is Irene." Regnar explained.
"Is this the person you mentioned when you woke up just now? Did you just think of me as her?" Lisanna said with a smile.
"!!!????" Regnar was horrified. This Lisanna could see through his thoughts very easily, but just now she couldn't understand the reason why she was blushing and uncomfortable. I really don't know whether to call her sensitive or slow.
Just then, Alexander ran back. He said anxiously: "There seems to be a temporary defense line arranged by the Stoke people in front..."
"Number, quality." Kordak asked with a serious face. Now the second prince of the empire is like his scout.
"There are about thirty people of unknown strength. They are blocking the entrance to the valley. It seems difficult for us to avoid them." Alexander didn't mind Kordak's tone either.
"..." Kordak frowned, then looked at Regner: "Xiao Lei..."
"I know, leave it to me!" Regnar struggled to get off the horse.
"Are you okay?" Vera hesitated.
"Don't worry, sister Vera, you still don't know what I'm capable of? Isn't it just investigation?" Regnar smiled. Although he was in a coma for a long time, his body unexpectedly improved a lot because of Alexander's sacred fighting energy treatment. . So now, fighting isn't an option, but doing things like stealth investigation is still ok.
"Are you trying to be brave again?" Lisanna couldn't help thinking as she looked at Regna.
"Then it's up to you." Kordak nodded.
"Wait, I'll go with you." Vera also jumped off the horse: "I know how to sneak a little bit. You can observe closely when you get there. I'm far away. I can support you in case of emergencies."
"Okay." Regnar nodded, and then left with Vera.
Half an hour later, Regna and Vera returned safely. But it was obvious that the activities just now made Regnar's face pale again.
"There are thirty people in total, one sixteenth-level high-level warrior, four mid-level warriors, one fourteenth-level warrior, one thirteenth-level warrior, and two twelve-level warriors. The rest are all elite infantrymen of sixty-seventh level, so they can be considered as It's heavily guarded." Regnar explained: "I gave it a try, and they were very tightly defended. It would be difficult for me to get through by myself. Don't even think about it, boss. If we don't capture this sentry post, we'll probably return. Not going.
"Take a detour?" Kordak turned and asked.
"I think the result is the same. Although there are four roads that can lead directly to the valley, there is no reason for the Stoke people to block only this road and abandon the blockade of several other roads." Alexander shook his head: "Moreover, We can't delay any longer. If we delay searching for another day, our dry food will be obviously insufficient, and we won't be able to fight without enough food."
"What are you going to do?" Vera turned to ask Kordak.
"..." Kordak pondered for a moment, then turned to ask Alexander: "How is your recovery going, Your Highness?"
"It's about 60 to 70% complete," Alexander said.
"So fast?!" Kordak was shocked. He didn't have much medical supplies, he just drank a bottle of healing potion and basked in the sun for two days. Alexander could actually recover from such a serious injury. This speed was simply incredible. Outrageous.
"I can be the main combat force." Alexander moved his shoulders and then said.
"Very good." Kordak pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Regnar again: "Thank you for the hard work this time."
"Thank you for your hard work, please give me something to eat. I haven't eaten for two days. It's really uncomfortable to be on an empty stomach!" Regnar said with a wry smile.
"Here you go." Lisanna took the initiative to take out a piece of bread from the bag hanging on the horse.
"Thank you!" Regnar devoured it.
"Can you fight soon?" Lisanna asked.
"It should be okay, at least I won't let you take care of me." Regnar smiled.
"Okay." Lisanna nodded.
Several people found a secluded place to rest for two hours, and then they headed towards the sentry post. This should be their last hurdle before returning to Costa Fortress.
