Bloodline Lord of War - Chapter 204
Chapter 204 My sword!
Robin didn’t expect to meet Baron Joseph here, so it was a bit of a surprise.
Joseph was about a few meters away from Robin, riding a war horse. At this time, he looked very vicissitudes, and he didn’t have the high-spirited appearance of the past at all.
His face is full of stubble, and his hair seems to have not been washed for a long time, sticking to his forehead in strands; the silver armor on his body is damaged in many places, and the white cloak behind him is also dirty. Behind his horse’s rump came a column of soldiers, the first carrying the banner of their great wooden keep. Robin glanced roughly, there were about a hundred people.
Almost all the soldiers of these giant wooden castles were wounded, and all of them looked downcast. Some soldiers didn’t even have weapons in their hands. One can imagine how embarrassed they were when they fled.
Moreover, Robin remembered that when the coalition army went out, Joseph had at least five or six hundred troops under his command, but now there are only more than a hundred people left, and the battle loss ratio is nearly five to one.
“Robin, I thought you were dead in battle, but I didn’t expect you to come here alive.” Joseph sat on the horseback and spoke coldly to Robin. It’s this time, and he still remembers the past A feud with Robin.
Robin twitched the corner of his mouth, showing a sneer, and immediately choked back: “Joseph, don’t worry, I will definitely live longer than you.”
Joseph wanted to say something weird, but then, he suddenly saw a big sword on Robin’s back, and why did this big sword look so familiar?
He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and then showed a surprised expression. It was his “Kamikaze Great Sword”.
“Robin, why are you carrying my sword?” Joseph asked loudly in astonishment.
“Your sword?” Robin was taken aback for a moment before realizing it immediately. Baron Lauren did say before that the magic sword he picked up on the battlefield belonged to Baron Joseph.
“I picked this up on the battlefield.”
Joseph was overjoyed. This magic sword is very precious. He spent a lot of money to ask a famous blacksmith in the capital to forge it. The wind attribute magic crystal inlaid on the hilt alone is worth hundreds of gold coins.
When retreating before, he only cared about running for his life, and he also abandoned this great sword on the battlefield, for which he still felt distressed for a long time. Unexpectedly, it was lost and recovered today.
Joseph hurriedly rode his horse through the crowd and came to Robin. Then, he got off his horse and happily said to Robin: “This is my sword, my kamikaze sword. Baron Robin, thank you for helping me retrieve the sword.”
At this moment, Joseph immediately felt that Robin was more pleasing to the eye, and he was about to reach out to grab the hilt behind Robin. However, Robin took a step back, dodging his outstretched hand.
Robin looked at Joseph with a surprised face, with a playful smile on his face: “Hey, wait a minute, what you said is yours is yours? How do you prove that this sword is yours?”
Robin was able to use the magic great sword smoothly, and he had no intention of returning the sword to Joseph at all. Robin’s logic is simple, he doesn’t care who the sword originally belonged to, he picked it up on the battlefield, and that is his trophy.
Joseph looked stunned, and quickly said: “Of course this is my sword. The name of the sword is Kamikaze Great Sword. My soldiers have seen me use this sword. They can testify to me.”
“You said it was your sword. If you call it, will it agree?” Robin smirked, making it clear that he didn’t intend to hand over the sword.
Joseph also understood, his face darkened instantly, and he asked coldly, “Robin, what do you mean?”
“The meaning is very simple. This is my sword. I picked it up on the battlefield, so it’s mine. What kind of **** kamikaze sword? Don’t name my sword randomly, please?” Said high-spiritedly.
Joseph suddenly became furious. There was still a cross sword hanging on his waist. He pulled out half of the cross sword with a swipe, revealing the sharp blade, and threatened viciously: “Robin! Do you want to die on me?” under his sword?”
Robin put away his smiling face and looked at Joseph with cold eyes. Joseph only had a second-tier bloodline, so not only did his threat not have any effect, but it seemed ridiculous to Robin.
“Want to fight? Okay, I’ll accompany you anytime.”
After Robin finished speaking, Simon and Luke, who had been standing behind him all the time, immediately took a step forward, one left and one right blocked Robin’s body, and glared at Joseph with unfriendly expressions.
Simon clenched his fists with both hands, making a loud “click”. There were two short knives pinned to the back of Luke’s waist, and he put his hands on the hilts of the short knives, making a gesture of being ready to draw them at any time.
At the same time, behind the two of them, a group of iron guards and half-elves also took out their weapons one after another, like a pack of hungry wolves, staring fiercely at Joseph and the army behind him.
Compared with Robin’s gazing at a tiger, only a few personal guards behind Joseph looked ready to fight, while the rest of the soldiers either showed fear, or lowered their heads like turtles. A little morale.
The soldiers of these giant wooden castles have been frightened by the blood army. Now they just want to cross this **** raging river as soon as possible and save their lives. As for Lord Joseph’s beloved sword, what does that have to do with me?
At this time, the confrontation between Robin and Joseph also attracted the attention of others, and all the surrounding coalition soldiers looked over, including some nobles. But no one came up to fight, everyone had a mentality of watching the excitement, and hung up on things that had nothing to do with themselves.
“Baron Joseph, I advise you not to do stupid things. I can eat you up in just a quarter of an hour.” Robin said coldly.
Crossing the river is the most important thing right now, so he doesn’t want to cause trouble, and even if he wins Joseph, it won’t do him any good. However, if Joseph really didn’t open his eyes and insisted on making gestures with him, then Robin didn’t mind destroying them on the spot.
At this time, Pastor Feynman stepped forward. He squeezed into the middle of the two groups, pretending to be a peacemaker, and dissuaded him: “Baron Robin, Baron Joseph, you all calm down. In the current situation, we can no longer start internal strife. gone.”
Joseph couldn’t help being a little surprised when he saw Feynman walking out of Robin’s team, but immediately afterwards, he seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and wanted Pastor Feynman to give him justice. In his opinion, Feynman People who are members of the Holy Light Church will naturally maintain justice.
“Mr. Feynman, please testify to me that the sword Robin is carrying is indeed mine, and you have seen it before.”
But Joseph did not expect that Pastor Feynman pretended to be confused.
“Have I seen it before?” Pastor Feynman showed a embarrassed expression, thought for a while, and said to Joseph. “I’m sorry, Baron Joseph, I’m getting old and my memory is not as good as before. I really can’t remember it.”
Joseph blushed instantly, and he could see that this Feynman and Robin were in the same group.
“Mr. Feynman, how can you talk nonsense with your eyes open? When we had a meeting together in Earl Goode’s military tent, you clearly saw me carrying this great sword.”
As soon as he said this, Pastor Feynman was also annoyed.
There were allied soldiers around. In front of so many people, Joseph publicly accused Feynman of lying, which was equivalent to giving Feynman a slap in the face. Feynman not only had to take care of his own face, but he also had to take care of the face of the Holy Light Church.
If Joseph said this, then Feynman would have no room for maneuver. In order not to damage his face and to prevent the majesty of the Church of the Holy Light from being dusted, he could only bite him to death. He has never seen this magic sword before. .
Feynman’s face darkened, he frowned, and said in a bad tone: “Please pay attention to your words, Baron Joseph, I have already said it, I can’t remember it.”
At this time, the soldiers of the coalition army who were watching the excitement around them also whispered to each other. Originally, everyone’s opinions on Robin and Joseph’s disagreement were half and half. But after Pastor Feynman spoke, public opinion immediately began to tilt towards Robin.
As the pastor of the Church of the Holy Light, Feynman has a higher prestige in the minds of these ordinary soldiers than the two barons Robin and Joseph, and his words are more likely to be believed by the soldiers.
Joseph did not continue to argue with Feynman, because he could not prove that Feynman was lying. Moreover, he didn’t want to publicly tear himself apart with Pastor Feynman, who was, after all, a clergy member of the Church of the Holy Light. Therefore, he could only vent his anger on Robin.
He stared at Robin, his eyes seemed to kill. However, after all, he didn’t dare to fight directly, because he knew in his heart that if a fight really broke out, it would be impossible for Robin’s opponent to rely on the remnants of his men who were defeated. Moreover, the blood army may come over at any time, so he just wants to cross the river now.
“Robin, for the sake of Pastor Feynman, I will let you go today. But don’t be too happy, just wait for me, this matter will never end, and I will not let you go.” Joe Cerf retracted the cross sword angrily.
Robin sneered disdainfully: “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Joseph got on his horse, and he sat on the horse, staring at Robin like a knife, thinking angrily in his heart: Robin, just laugh, sooner or later, I will make you cry in front of me.
Then, he set off again with his soldiers, followed the crowd of large troops, and continued to walk towards the entrance of the river crossing channel.
Looking at the back of Joseph leaving, Simon spit on the ground: “Bah, what a coward.”
Luke let go of the handle holding the knife, turned to Simon and said, “Okay, it’s best not to fight, we still have to cross the river.”
After Joseph left, Pastor Feynman finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and complained to Robin: “Baron Robin, this is not the time for internal strife, the blood army is still on our **** behind.”
Robin spread his hands innocently: “Joseph came to find fault first, I just dealt with it passively, Pastor Feynman, you know me, I have always been honest and responsible.”
Feynman rolled his eyes at Robin: “You? Be honest and do your duty. If the Holy Light God hears your words, the Lord God will cut off your tongue.”
Robin didn’t take it seriously, and said with a smile: “Master Shengguang will understand my difficulties.”
“Oh.” Feynman sighed helplessly, leaned in front of Robin, and whispered. “Robin, for you, I lied in front of the Holy Light God today.”
Pastor Feynman was able to speak to himself, and Robin was very grateful in his heart. During this journey together day and night, he also gained friendship with Pastor Feynman.
“Hey, thank you, Mr. Pastor, don’t worry, Shengguang is reasonable, and he will forgive you.” Robin grinned, showing a row of neat white teeth.
“Stop being silly, let’s go.”
Feynman turned around while speaking, then he clenched his fists, closed his eyes and prayed: “The great Holy Light God, please forgive Baron Robin for blaspheming you, he is also your child, but he is a little out of his mind That’s all.”
Robin heard clearly behind him, and shrugged speechlessly.
Then, the Raging Waves Legion continued to move towards the river bank. Like other troops, they were wrapped in the endless crowd, and could only move forward bit by bit like snails crawling.
For the quick-tempered Simon, this was simply killing him. After walking for a while, he couldn’t stand it anymore. He grabbed his head with both hands and wailed: “Walking at this speed, when will it take?” Can we cross the river?”
He couldn’t wait any longer, so he began to push forward arrogantly, “Get out of the way, get out of the way, let me get out of the way!”
Relying on his own size, Simon did squeeze a few people away, but soon he couldn’t squeeze anymore. It wasn’t that the people in front didn’t want to give way, but the people in front were also crowded, and there was no room for them to make way. Let.
Robin walked behind Simon, pulled out a grass from nowhere, and held it in his mouth. He was quite calm and said: “Take your time, we will always be in line. Look, the people behind you must be more anxious than us.”
Simon looked back. Originally, because they came late, the Raging Waves Legion was at the end of the river crossing team, but at some point, a large group of coalition soldiers appeared behind the Raging Waves Legion, blocking their way back. .
“My God, when did so many people appear in the back?” Iron Bear Warrior shouted in surprise.
Robin laughed: “See, shut your mouth and walk slowly.”
There are too many people crossing the river. Nearly tens of thousands of people are crowded on the river bank, all relying on a long and narrow river crossing channel to cross the Nutao River, which is very inefficient.
Robin and the others lined up from morning to evening. Seeing that it was getting dark, they hadn’t touched the bank of the Raging River.
But at this moment, Robin suddenly heard a loud noise behind him. He looked back curiously, and saw a group of human cavalry rushing out from the southern high ground.
There are more than 20 cavalry in this team. It seems that they have just experienced a fierce battle. Almost everyone is wounded, and the wounds have not healed. Some cavalry wounds are still bleeding out. They All the way down from the high ground, during which a cavalryman was too seriously injured and fell off his horse.
The knight at the head is a man in his thirties. Robin recognizes him. His name is Xielu, a baron under Earl Goode, and his strength has reached the second level of blood, and he is deeply trusted by Earl Goode.
Robin was wondering, when he heard a coalition soldier beside him saying in panic: “Didn’t Baron Xielu lead his troops to stop the blood army? The Earl asked him to stop it for a day and a night, why are you back now?”
Another soldier spoke up: “I remember, when he left, he took a thousand cavalry with him!”
After hearing this, Robin had a bad premonition in his heart. Judging from this posture, Baron Xielu probably failed in blocking.
In other words, the blood army should arrive soon!
