Mercenaries and Adventurers Chapter 269

Kiel was a little confused, so he slowly leaned over on his horse.

Although the speed of the horse did not increase, the armored blood lick was much heavier than before. The slightly soft ground was directly pressed by the horse's hoof, and a deep hoof print could be stepped on.

Moreover, the armor on the body will also make unavoidable friction noises with the movement of the body-even if the craftsmen have used various methods to remove these friction noises.

Therefore, at a distance, including the woodcarving craftsman sitting not far from the gate of the clearing, the guards in the town at the gate of the clearing, and Kiel's armed people, they all discovered the Kiel knight riding an armored horse.

The woodcarving craftsman was extremely panicked when he saw the person coming, and hurriedly sat up from the ground and waved his hands in salute. The things he had been tinkering with in his hands were also scattered on the ground, and he couldn't care less.

However, the surveillance guards arranged by Dorne Town just looked at the knight's horse curiously, and then whispered about the new armor of the Kiel knight's horse at the moment, chatting while preparing for dinner. The armed people guarding the gate of the open space were extremely excited. The few people watching the gate immediately called out to their resting companions to come out to see the new armor of the knight's war horse.

After all, this is directly related to the vital interests of each of them. It is very simple, the more powerful the Kiel knights leading their people, the safer everyone will be in the future journey.

None of them wanted to experience the tragic bandit attack that night before.

Kiel also waved to the armed people under his command, but when he passed the woodcarving craftsman, he turned his face and said a word to the craftsman: "You came quite early, do you want to sit with me? "

Keir was just being polite, he didn't want many people to know about it, but it was too conspicuous for this guy to sit on the side of the road outside the town.

And after getting closer, Kiel saw that the woodcarving craftsman was sitting on the side of the road with his head bowed and busy, but he didn't let go of this time. He still held several half-finished woodcarvings in his rough hands. Make some extra money.

"My lord, my lord knight, no need, no need. Little man, little man is still here, just wait, just wait."

It seems that he was intimidated by the majestic armor of the horse at the moment, or he didn't expect that the young man he met in the Chamber of Commerce yesterday, although he called himself a knight, was really a knight?

Keir rolled his eyes, he wanted the other party to come over in the middle of the night, he just didn't want to attract attention, but he didn't expect this guy to come over early, and he just sat on the side of the road and carved wood carvings like this. Hey, hey, something happened near the town later, didn't everyone think of me the first time?

But he had no choice but to say to this person: "In this case, move your position and stay away from my gate a little."

"But, it's far away. I won't be able to see anything after it gets dark. These wood carvings haven't been finished yet..."

Looking at the semi-finished woodcarving tightly held in the opponent's hand, Keir was speechless. He waved his hand in disgust and stopped talking to this person.

Craftsman Kak watched the knight ride away. He struggled for a while, but he tidied up. He picked up the scattered wood carvings and chipped wood chips on the ground, dragged the heavy bag, and moved a certain distance towards the direction of the town.

"Master Kiel, what is this? What is this?"

"Haha, it must be armor, right? Wow, your horse is really powerful!"

Kiel rode proudly on the horse, and signaled the blood licking grass to slow down, and let everyone take a good look at the newly acquired horse armor.

People gathered around, some banging on the metal armor, some curious about the protection of the multi-layer protective cloth, and some people lowered their heads, wanting to see what the inside of the horse's armor looks like.

Bloodlicker snorted impatiently, shook his head, and slowly moved his hooves in the crowd watching with frustration. It's a little hungry, and these nasty humans keep blocking it from eating.

snort.

Sensing the impatience of the war horses, Kiel greeted everyone: "Call the people who are responsible for taking care of the horses and livestock. I have to teach them how to put on and take off the armor of these war horses as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will need to fight later, and I will have to give them a lesson." Wearing a war horse alone, that's not acceptable!"

So someone immediately went over to call someone.

"Remember to ask them to bring some food for the horses!"

Slowly coming to the center of the camp, there were more people watching. Many people came to watch curiously with their wooden bowls just as they were eating.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people, Kiel taught the people in charge of the horses how to remove the entire set of horse armor and how to put it on in order. After teaching it twice, Keir stopped doing it himself, but stood aside to check and let those few people do the work.

Bloodlicker, on the other hand, stood there obediently. Its bit was loosened, and it didn't care what the human beings who repeatedly put on and off the armor on it were getting nervous. Mixed beans.

A wooden bucket filled with water was also placed next to it. When the Bloodlicker felt thirsty, it could directly stick the entire horse's head in and gulp down the water.

Of course, the priest and Bloodfang also came to watch the fun. After watching for a while, Bloodfang pulled Keir aside and asked someone to bring a thin and stupid guy over.

"Oh, isn't this the capable bandit? Didn't he die at the hands of the girls?"

Kiel gave a smirk. He had forgotten that there was such a person in the team. Before, a girl in the team asked Kiel to supervise this person, and Kiel felt that this person might not live for a few days. , I didn't expect to be alive at this time.

Xueyasite was quite speechless when he heard Keir's question: "Not only is he alive, but he almost caused trouble when he sold the captured robbers yesterday."

So, Xueyaster told him what he hadn't had the opportunity to tell Kiel before.

After hearing this, Keir rubbed his chin with his hand, looked at the stupid guy muttering something in his mouth and said, "Perhaps, there is a story behind this person, and his origin is probably not simple."

"You mean? Keep him? Or find someone to cure his stupidity?"

Kiel snorted when he heard Xueyaster's words: "It's a good idea to sneak attack and kill my subordinate, and then serve as a thug for a well-known bandit gang. Even if this person does not directly participate in the robbery operation, he is indirectly It's part of the evil deeds of the bandits. It's his life not to be beaten to death by the girls of his dead companions, and he still wants me to spend money to cure his madness, don't even think about it.”

Keir approached Will, who was standing blankly holding his long sword, and circled him a few times: "Why are you still letting him hold a weapon? Are you afraid that he will kill people when he is crazy? Although this person's fighting skills are average, But the ordinary people in his ranks are no match for him."

Bloodyaster has been in charge of many things in the team that Kiel has no time to manage, so he said helplessly: "This guy, he cares more about his sword than the guy under his crotch, don't move his precious As far as the long sword is concerned, he is quite honest. But Keel, let's deal with this person. He has caused some troubles in the team. Last night, I heard that some women in the team had already fought for him. There were quarrels and fights."

Kiel almost choked. He focused on the skinny guy, um, he was a little handsome, even because of his skinny face, he seemed to be more handsome than when they fought each other before?

"Is that an exaggeration? Although most of the people in the team are farmers in the village, I think everyone is pretty good. They have strong legs, feet, arms, and are good at work. They are also very strong. And this guy, Apart from having a good face, I guess other things are not very good?"

Blood Fangste shrugged: "Girls just think it looks good, ha, why don't we sell him to the red house in the town? I went to play two days ago, no, when I was inquiring about the news, I saw him There are some guys out there who face rich businesswomen."

Keel tapped Bloody Gist a few times with his fingers: "Who would brag about his love story to me before?"

"That's a business story, not a love story. Ahem, what do you think of my proposal?"

Blood Yaster looked embarrassed, but quickly exposed the matter by relying on the shameless thick skin he had learned from years of business travel.

Keir didn't reply directly to his companion, but grabbed the handle of the long sword Will was holding in his arms.

When holding it, the thin guy reacted slightly, but not much, and still muttered some names in his mouth. Keir's sensitive ears heard every name this guy said clearly, and after a little guessing, he guessed from the name and related position that the guy said that this guy seemed to have studied in a place similar to a school.

And it is a place where martial arts are taught together.

This is interesting, it seems that that place has a deep relationship with this stupid guy, and it still makes him unforgettable even when he is insane.

Considering that the other party's age is not much older than Kiel's body, most of the other party's youth and part of his youth are obviously related to that place like a school.

"Ste, have you ever heard of a place called [Polya Swordsman Academy]?"

With a little effort, Keir pulled Will's long sword out of the scabbard. As the weapon was pulled out, the stupid and thin guy trembled as if frightened.

"I have never heard of it. Although I have been a caravan guard for many years, I have never been out of the kingdom. Our country is actually very big. Compared with the surrounding countries, I heard some priests say that it is five or six times larger than those small kingdoms. Times. Of course, not including the empire to the east."

He shrugged, and then complained in a low voice, complaining about the nobles in the southern provinces, they couldn't even beat a small kingdom adjacent to the south. You must know that the small kingdom in the south is not as large or as powerful as a kingdom in the southern province.

"Maybe, it wasn't the old businessman in our country who was rescued by you, he might have heard of this name."

Keir nodded. He drew out the long sword that Will held in his chest while observing the reaction of this stupid person.

If he just held the handle of the long sword, Will would react, but not much. And when he pulled out the long sword, this guy began to tremble all over. At this moment, Kiel pulled out half of the long sword, and this crazy guy finally made a move.

The thin young man growled wildly for a while, then grabbed the scabbard with one hand, and suddenly grabbed his own hilt with the other, trying to compete with Kiel for control of the long sword.

But Kiel was unmoved. The young man beat and pulled the handle of the long sword indiscriminately, but he couldn't break Kiel's right hand at all.

Probably realizing that what he did could not keep his long sword, this stupid guy roared like a wild dog, opened his mouth and bit Kiel's throat.

"Be careful! He's going to bite!"

Xueyasite exclaimed, and before he stepped forward to help, he was frozen in place by a burst of coldness emanating from Kiel.

Not only him, but even the crazy young man who was facing Kiel stiffly kept opening his mouth to bite, forcibly stopping all his movements.

It was a soul-stirring killing intent, as well as an uncomfortable feeling that made people chill all over, as if a cold metal weapon was stuck to the throat, and the life could be taken away in the next moment. At the same time, Bloodyaster even felt that there were many vague wailing and moaning sounds in his ears, which reminded him of that night a few days ago.

On Kiel's side, he closed his eyes and looked at the guy who wanted to bite him coldly. He just released his killing intent and the intention to attack, and nailed this stupid guy in place.

After that, his hands kept moving, and he finally snatched his long sword from the stupid Will.

This is a well-made long sword made of steel. Its flexibility and sharpness are superior to ordinary weapons, but it may have been out of maintenance for a while. Clean up blood stains, thus slightly corroded rusty red spots.

With the light of the campsite nearby, Kiel noticed this time that there was a deliberately destroyed engraved pattern on the weight at the end of the sword hilt.

He thought about it, probably it was the ornamentation used by this guy's original family. It is a pity that it has been deliberately destroyed, and it is impossible to identify it.

After checking, Kiel put the long sword back into the scabbard, and then put away his killing intent and attacking thoughts, and made the guy in front of him 'alive'.

But like a frightened wild animal, this stupid young man squatted on the ground wailing, but he didn't dare to raise his head again.

The madness that was about to rush forward and bite Kiel with all his might before was gone.

Xueyasite shuddered, and then patted his face vigorously, then said to Kiel with a wry smile: "Take it easy, Kiel, you scared me just now."

"Oh yeah, sorry, sorry."

After Keir apologized, he looked at the guy squatting on the ground trembling with his long sword, hesitated and said: "Please call the old businessman in the team over and see if he can identify the origin of this guy Knowing the origin of this person, let's discuss how to deal with this person. I am a little interested in that college."

Keir was thinking about whether he needed to find a place rich in knowledge, and have a comprehensive and systematic understanding of the situation in this different world.

At least, he should have a comprehensive understanding of the specific conditions of human society, right? You can't just rely on the operas of the folk theater troupe, and the poetry and legends of the bards in the tavern to acquire knowledge, right?

These things are full of exaggerated descriptions, and there are obvious or ironic, or teasing political metaphors in them. It is impossible and impossible to correctly and objectively understand the history and actual conditions of various places.

Of course, excluding the unclear situation of the college, there are probably organizations and buildings that preserve and pass on knowledge in big cities. He heard Knight Lanisa occasionally say that Knight Lanisa was in the organ of the capital of the Northwest Province when she was young. When she was studying in Fort, she often went to some fee-paying public libraries to learn some interesting knowledge.

It's just that there seems to be restrictions on the social status and income of the visitors, not everyone can go in and read the preserved books.

Kiel boasted that although he did not have a formal knight nobility appointment, but by virtue of his relationship with Crow Knight, as well as his own strength and economic ability, he went to the capital of the southern province and read it in the public library that might exist there. Books, I guess.

It was time-consuming and unnecessary, but Keel knew that it was something that would be done anyway.

Can't avoid it.

If he wants to live in a small area like the vast majority of civilians, and live his whole life in a daze, he certainly doesn't need to know what the world looks like.

All you need is a piece of land that can support you and your family, a house that can shelter you from the wind and rain, and some friends from the same village, and a little familiarity with the priests of the church in the village, so you can live your life in peace with a high probability.

In the end, decades later, I truly experienced the death process that people in different worlds would experience.

If he is devout enough and contributes to the church and the gods, he may be lucky enough to ascend to the kingdom of God, or be sheltered by faith, pass through the underworld, and then join the cycle of the world again.

If he lives an ordinary life, there may be another twists and turns after death, such as wandering in the underworld for a long time, and finally forget everything about himself in a long time, turning into the dust of the soul sung in poetry, and being swayed by other people after death. Trampled by the dead.

Or, unlucky enough to be preyed upon by evil beasts in the underworld, the experience of my life just adds a chewing taste to those ferocious and ignorant beasts.

Immediately, thinking of this, Kiel shuddered, and slowly lowered his head to look at his palms.

Vaguely, in addition to his own life energy in the palm of his hand, he could also vaguely perceive the slight divine power of the **** of agriculture that he had seldom sensed before.

These few Saturn divine powers are not motionless, but spontaneously form a circulation system, flowing and passing under the skin of his palm.

Keel understood that these powers would eventually converge at a virtual power-seed in his belly. And it is also closely connected with the two blessing abilities on him now.

Although the divine powers of the two gods of Saturn are not interlinked, Kiel can clearly and conveniently use the blessings of the two gods of Saturn on his body. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

After a while, the old businessman was called by Xueyasite.

The old man's health has been getting worse recently. When he was rescued by Kiel from the bandit's lair, his movements were not inferior to the young man's. In the past few days, his steps have obviously slowed down a lot, and his waist is also a little bent.

"Your physical condition doesn't look good, Mr. Fentigar."

Facing the young knight's polite inquiry, the old businessman smiled slightly: "I have been doing business in the wild for too long in my life, and I am in good health now."

"Master Knight, you asked me to come because you have something to explain, right? Please leave it to me with confidence, as a repayment for your kindness in saving me."

Kiel pointed to the stupid young man squatting and trembling next to him: "It's nothing, I'm just curious about the identity of this captive as a bandit, and I want to know where this crazy guy came from?"

The old businessman nodded: "To be noticed by you like this, he must have an extraordinary background. Since people are stupid, this is easy to deal with, ha ha, after all, I am an old guy, a young man with clear thinking and strong, I can Not their opponents."

Kiel said to Xueyasite: "In this case, let this man be handed over to the old Mr. Fantigar to take care of him. The person who was in charge of him will be disbanded, and the girls in the province will quarrel. Besides, this man is crazy after all. There is still a weapon in my hand that cannot be separated from the body. In addition, from among the people under my command, I will send two well-equipped people to watch him specifically, so as not to let him hurt other people in the team."

Keir turned to look at the old businessman again: "Mr. Fentigar, if you find anything, or if this guy becomes conscious, please come to me directly."

"Okay, Lord Knight."

"Just call me Kiel, no honorifics."
