Death Knight - v2 Chapter 5
The warm water drips gently and outlines the beautiful curve of the girl. Catoli felt that every inch of her skin was unfolding at the moment, and she was breathing the moist air comfortably.
“It’s even more comfortable than in the holy city …” The girl sighed with satisfaction, closed her eyes and soaked in the bathtub safely. The scene just now appeared again.
“Even if the home is destroyed, as long as we are still standing here, we can rebuild it.” The village chief responded when Catoli was worried and looked at the village that was almost completely destroyed. In the eyes of the villagers, there is still an irreversible fear, but at the same time, the girl did feel the indomitable confidence and tenacity.
It is because of this spirit that this small village at the junction of forces will not be annexed? It’s great to get their approval. Mom, thank you for teaching me excellent swordsmanship. Looking at the chain mail and dagger placed in the corner, the girl’s mouth raised.
The fierce battle that continued into the middle of the night brought everyone’s endurance to its limit. As soon as the mage returned to the room, he fell on the bed, Josephine and Rennes were injured, and they were sleeping in their own rooms at the moment-villagers They are responsible for vigilance and aftercare, and they have nothing to worry about just after the fierce battle.
However, Catoli’s consciousness was still sober.
Maybe it was the hot shower that washed away the shackles of fatigue, or maybe the bright image of the fighting just occupied the mind. The girl didn’t feel a little sleepy. She opened the floor curtain on one side and opened the window to blow the cold night. wind. The outside scene jumped into the emerald pupil at a glance-the thick smoke was lingering in the air, the broken walls and stumps of various places pieced together the fragmented picture of the village, and the villagers heard anxious shouts from time to time.
By the way, there are probably many people buried under the rubble? And how can this situation be restarted? They didn’t even have a place to live … the girl wrapped her arms around her subconsciously, but then she realized that the silent moon was not alone.
Next to the window next door, the blonde demon hunter was staring at the end of the street—the stream of light that surrounds the Temple of Spirits had already dispersed, but the naughty feathers were still dancing in the air, looking far away, It’s like a twinkling starlight.
“Can’t sleep?” The crisp voice turned the death knight back, but when the girl caught his eyes, he froze.
Compared with wearing a jersey, Catoli was as if she had changed her personality. The soft neckline of the cotton shirt lifted the slender and elegant neck of the girl, and the light breeze brought a light fragrance, and some wet short hair clung to her rosy cheeks, with a contrast of dark and bright silk. Now, the girl’s delicate skin seemed fairer.
In an instant, the dim moonlight made the figure that appeared in Roland’s mind overlap with the emerald eyes in front of him.
“What’s wrong?” Catolie had a strange reaction.
“Ah? No, nothing …” Realizing his rudeness, Roland immediately turned his eyes away. “I feel like there is no sleepiness, so I’m going to blow hair, what about you?”
“Me too, maybe it’s really too exciting … After all, fighting the devil, this is the first time.” Cattolic replied with a guilty conscience, “It was not hurt, but was slightly burnt a bit, thank you for coming And me.”
“It’s not necessary to be so grateful.” Roland smiled back. “It’s not me who plays the main role.”
“Do you mean that temple of spirits?”
“Well … there is a place where the spiritual world overlaps with this world,” Roland explained. “Thanks to the magical power in that, otherwise we might not get such a result.”
“The girl who built this temple of the spirit … she’s called Jiu Yuan, isn’t she?” Cattoli’s voice was wrapped in complex emotions.
This is the master of the other half of my blood … not only will he use powerful magic, but he will also take care of everyone. What kind of girl would she be? The fascination of the villagers when they mentioned the word Jiu Yuan occupied Cattoli’s thoughts. Must be a gentle and beautiful woman? And there are those who protect her and those she wants to protect … but in the end everything is shattered …
Shattered by Wyndham Oland.
The father is guilty. The girl told herself arduously that this sentence had been repeated countless times in her mind, but the pain and oppression she evoked every time had never been reduced in the slightest.
The blood of the killer and the victim is mixed in my body, and my existence is contradictory and unreliable. Catoli tightened her lips subconsciously. Probably only when fighting, can I feel my value …
However, the death knight did not notice the waves in the opponent’s eyes, because when he heard the name, his whole body shivered uncontrollably.
The dead will soon be forgotten, right? When the village chief and blacksmith Bill approached Roland, the death knight was afraid he would be recognized. But in fact, even though the men in front of them also use huge weapons, and also have dazzling blond hair and beautiful looks, they still have no idea to associate themselves with the young man 17 years ago. In the end, the trace of expectation hidden under the cautious mood was so quietly broken.
What the villagers miss is just the vague legend.
And I will remember you, probably only me. Roland subconsciously put his hand on his chest, holding the ornament that exudes a long breath across his clothes. The blonde swordsman showed a helpless expression, and his revenge seven years ago did not bring him anything. Ironically, Windham has since occupied an indelible place in the depths of his memory.
The silence soon filled, and the two stopped talking, but with their own minds, they looked silently at the cold outline under the moonlight.
“She must be amazing.” After a short while, Catoli resumed the topic.
“Jiu Yuan is a gentle woman,” Roland replied affirmatively. “However, if there is only magic in battle without your sword, the result will be the same.”
“Are you trying to coax me?” The girl pursed her lips.
“How is it possible? The next time Blacksmith Bill tells stories to travelers, there will be a new theme.” The Demon Hunter smiled. “And I should also thank you. This record is a total of four flames. Demon, half of the abyss lord. If it were a person, probably nothing could be done? “
“So the other half is just mine?” Catoli’s voice finally briskly.
“What do you think of this allocation?” The other asked humorously.
“I agree.” A smile flashed in the girl’s emerald eyes, and then she suddenly realized, “Yes, we haven’t officially introduced each other yet!”
“My name is Kaos, and Demon Hunter Kaos,” Roland replied cautiously.
“My name is Catolie, Catolie Holland. Please enlighten me!” She reported her name seriously-although everyone has already decided to use a pseudonym in the task, but for those who have crossed the boundary of death together Comrade, the girl doesn’t want to do anything disrespectful.
But Catoli did not notice that the other side’s expression became stiff and unconscious.
“Is Catolly Holland … a really good name,” Roland replied, trying to conceal the unnaturalness in his tone. “It’s not too early, so unaccompanied, I’ll take a rest first.”
“Good night, Kaos.”
“Good night.” The death knight closed the window heavily.
“Cattorie Holland …” Roland murmured the name, leaning stiffly against the wall. The thick curtains covered the last moonlight, immersing the entire room in endless darkness.
Because she got the blood of a long time, so I have the familiar look and posture that makes me feel so familiar … The feeling of fighting side by side is just a phantom in my memory … I actually talk to the descendants of the enemy with laughter ~ !! Roland subconsciously dropped the ring on the middle finger, so the young man with blond hair became once again an undead with flames flowing in his eyes, and the breath of death wrapped around his body quickly and silently. The corners of the death knight’s mouth gradually twisted, eventually condensing into a cold smile with self-deprecating.
Everything makes sense. The demons did not reappear in this world because they felt the power in the blood of a long time. Catori is in order to find the world tree, so she will pass this place far away from the front line-Luvis must be very clear, only she can open the passage to the star capital.
If your goal is the same as mine … Roland silently drew out the frost, and those flaming eyes peered through the wall, staring at the girl’s crystal-like soul.
Catoli slept next door, less than five meters from where she stood. If you can use the power of death entanglement, you can easily make a large hole in the wooden wall. Before the other party responds, Frost will divide her into a bed. After experiencing such a fierce battle, the other three will not have much room to fight back. Even if they attack at the same time, Roland still has full confidence.
The ice-blue sword awns reflected the sharp light, cutting the surrounding darkness into countless pieces. The epee out of the sheath is like thirsty fangs, waiting for the owner to bury it in the enemy’s flesh.
But before Roland clenched the hilt, those emerald eyes appeared in front of him like illusion. It’s not the part that overlaps with the long distance, but it’s the one that belongs to Catoli alone-the firmness of facing the flames, the comfort after the end of the battle, and the sincerity when …
It was the eyes staring at his companion … Roland’s soul fire shook unnoticeably. Eventually, the death knight shook his head slightly and lowered the weapon in his hand, and the frost light gradually dimmed.
“Tonight, no matter what, we are still companions.” He whispered to the wall in front of him, putting the big sword in the sheath, “but … if there is another meeting next time …” The icy flames rekindled.
When Catori woke up from deep sleep, the sun was already high. The girl crawled up with sleepy eyes, she did not forget the thought of last night.
If Kaos’s travel direction is also Fahdot, the western country … there is nothing wrong with asking him to act with us. He should not reject my proposal. After all, a few more companions are always good. For some reason, Catoli is suddenly worried. She thought about how to persuade each other, and knocked on the door next door gently.
Not in the room … Did we go to breakfast? By the fifth pass, the girl stopped moving.
“The demon hunter has left.” The hotel owner who appeared at the entrance of the stairs interrupted her guess.
“Leave?” Catoli asked strangely.
“Yes, I left the village in the early morning,” the boss smiled helplessly. “I persuaded him for a long time but it was useless. The fighting last night was so fierce, but he refused to rest at all. My body … “
But before his words were finished, the girl rushed to the boss: “Which direction is he going? Is there anything urgent? Is there a message for me?”
“None of these …” It took him a long time to reflect.
“How is this … Anyway, please borrow a horse first, and I will return it as soon as possible!” The girl ran down the stairs before the hotel owner answered.
Did n’t you have a good chat yesterday … Why did you leave without a word? It’s like … it’s like running away from me. The emerald eyes passed the lost shadow, and the girl murmured subconsciously: “Obviously … we can walk together …”
“Where has Catolli gone?” Rain was a little strange. Although the injuries caused by the fighting last night have not been completely eliminated, for the mission of this team, that situation will not be a reason to stop and rest. At this moment, Josephine and Xiuyin both came to his room. The Ranger had removed the bandages on his head and was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, while the mage focused his attention on a spreading sheepskin. Paper maps and a few simple pieces of luggage have been sorted out, but-their captain is absent.
“According to the hotel’s owner and villagers, Catoli went to the blond hunter.” The mage shrugged.
“What a joke, it’s too dangerous to go out alone!” The Paladin immediately picked up the long sword that was set aside. “It’s only been one night. There may still be demons left outside the village, and she will be in danger. Yes … I’ll look for it now! “
“How to find it? Do you want the three of us to do a carpet search? Besides, she also rode away the only horse here.” Xiu Yin’s cross-examination made the other person speechless.
“Don’t worry, I believe she will be able to respond when necessary, after all, Catoli is the first place for Paladin evaluation,” Josephine, who remained silent, finally opened his eyes.
“but……”
“In fact, we are also worried about her, but in this case, there is no need to mess up because of their own guesses.” The Ranger patted the other’s shoulder, “I believe the decision of the companion.”
“Okay, I see.” The Paladin finally gave up, but the clenched fist didn’t let go.
In order to disturb a plan of action for a stranger who has only one face to face, and even went out to find him, did you want to let the other party join the team? Even if he is very handsome and superb in swordsmanship, there is absolutely no reason for it ~! Recalling the Paladin assessment, although he and Catoli had studied together for five years, the other party’s attitude was still extremely cautious, and Ren couldn’t help feeling very unfair.
When the Paladin was unhappy, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and Catoli, looking tired, came in: “I’m back.”
“Where did you go just now? You know, it’s dangerous outside, maybe there are demons … why don’t you act with us?” Ren asked with his head covered.
“There are no demons outside, and sooner or later we have to leave this village, just when I’m going to scout?” Cattoli felt that the other party was too fussed. “Besides, I just made a circle around, don’t you think Does the paladin’s first place even have this ability? “
“Even if that’s the case, there’s no reason to be so eager to chase the strange swordsman, right?” Ren answered angrily.
“Kaos was my lifesaver,” the girl added, “and as the leader of this mission, I hope he can be part of the team and fight with us.”
“This mission is related to the fate of the entire alliance ~! How can you hire any guy from an unknown source ~!” The Paladin retorted loudly.
“You are too forgetful, Rennes? If not for his help, maybe we were all gone last night! What do you think Kaos is not pleasing to the eye?” Catoli’s volume also increased accordingly.
“I said … two …” The ranger and mage on the side interjected in unison.
“In short, is it important to invite the demon hunter named Kaos to join the team, isn’t it important now?” Josephine smiled and started the round. “After all, the other party has left, even if you want to invite There is no chance. We still focus on the future journey, what do you think of Catoli? “
“And there is good news. The thanks from the villagers are very useful.” Xiu Yin shook the map in his hand. “This magic map detailed all the elements around the border city of Taklama, so even if I did n’t go, After that, the transfer square can now be used directly. It is estimated that this will save us three weeks ~! As soon as I am ready, I can transfer immediately. “
“So okay, I’ll sort out my stuff first,” Cattoli nodded to the mage. “As for the other things … let’s talk about it later.” The girl gave Rain a glance, and then left without looking back. Up the room.
Is the mental agitation that boys and girls can never eliminate … Seeing Ren, sitting on the bed, also swollen, Josephine sighed. If I could have known him then, I would probably not miss that person, right?
The western country Fahdot has a long history of more than five hundred years. Before the birth of the Luvis Alliance, this country occupies itself with the most powerful force in Lorendan. At that time, God was just a name that appeared in the calendar for the Fahdodoans—because Renas was far away from the sea, the mysterious Canados continent. But two hundred and thirty-five years ago, everything changed. The colorful aurora depicting the magnificent outline of the sky not only brought a new era for people, but also brought a completely different power to the Fahdods. Around—Louvis and her followers came to Lorendan.
Under the guidance of the goddess Louvis, Draenor, the country where the world tree is located, is developing at an unimaginable speed, and twisted into a powerful and powerful force with the surrounding five countries in the form of integration of politics and religion. Weiss Alliance. It was not until then that Fahdohd found himself far behind-when the magnificent and huge magic circle rose up across the Alliance and became a nightmare for transferring squares and siege spells. However, Fahdot could not even build the tower itself-the giant of the evening sun suddenly became the object of people’s ridicule, the gnome in the eyes of the alliance. For more than a hundred years, no matter how hard the previous Kings of Fahdot tried, the only thing they could do was to prevent the country from being annexed.
But now, a turning point has finally appeared. As long as you can grasp it, the re-emergence of Fahdot will be just around the corner ~! The man in black shuddered at the thought of this. Although he did not like to tell him about the turning master, so far, information from all over the world has proved that the master’s claims are not false.
“Master Austin, that’s them.” A voice from one side interrupted his thoughts. The subordinates carefully opened the thick curtains on one side, so the bustling gate area of Taklama City immediately appeared through Austen’s eyes through the window glass on the third floor.
The man quickly saw the goal-Catoli, wearing a traveler’s suit, and his party.
“The dark-haired girl who walked in front was Catoli Orland, the daughter of the late King Elazea. Behind her was Ryan Brent, both of them paladins. The latter was Josephine, the ‘son of the forest’ formerly responsible for the western defense of the Alliance, and the young man who spoke to him was Shuin Weiner, High Master. “The other side said in a clear and fluent tone,” In the Alliance territory We were fortunate to have an opportunity to evaluate, and the results were not optimistic. According to the observations of World War I in Boredin, they had a very strong power … strong enough to fight the death knight … “
“Isn’t that great?” Austin interrupted his comments with a smile. “The strength indicates that they have an important task so that our work will not fail. However, except for the personal information of these four people, , I really want to know what this secret mission means to the alliance. “
“Sorry, Lord Austin, I’ll do my best.” The subordinate lowered his head.
“Come on, I’m waiting for your good news.” The man nodded, turning his gaze again to those uninvited guests from the Luvis Alliance.
Faced with the power of God, Fahdot’s intelligence power was almost useless. The Holy Circle of the Holy Capital has the power to screen out lies, and the spies have nowhere to hide. And they had been placed in the hands of the village of Belial before, and there is still no reply to them-maybe they have been destined by the Paladins and have been wiped out.
However, no matter how difficult it is, I will definitely tear off your camouflage and get the kind of power that Luvis wants. Austin’s eyes flashed a cold light: “Enjoy it first, but soon you will be my prey. If it can really rejuvenate the motherland, I must get such a thing no matter what it costs ~ ! “
“Now that we are in Fakhdod, I think you all should know that this country has maintained a Cold War relationship with the Alliance,” Josephine said seriously to the other three people in the hotel room, “If the purpose of our actions is known, the consequences will be unimaginable. So from now on, we must never reveal our identity, but of course do not deliberately cover up, because it will only cause doubts of others.”
“Because the alliance is now fighting with the undead, will Fahdot’s talent be so arrogant?” Ren snorted, and he has seen nothing pleasing to the eye since that quarrel. There is nothing to be afraid of. “
“It’s always good to have less trouble, not to mention … the power of the gods … this kind of thing will definitely attract the desperate.” The ranger shook his head.
“When are we going to leave?” Cattoli interjected suddenly, but her gaze remained on the street outside the window.
“Leave? Didn’t you just find a hotel? Besides, it’s getting dark from walking to the temple of the traveler ~!” Xiu Yin, who was silent, protested immediately.
“Because it looks like we’re being followed.” The girl’s mouth smiled coldly. “Too long, the alliance seems to underestimate Fahdow’s intelligence.” She said she closed the curtains, not yet The lighted room immediately fell into darkness, and the noise from the street settled down instantly. The entire room was suddenly drowned by silence, only the sound of heartbeat echoing in the air.
“Already … tracked?” Xiu Yin swallowed.
“Trust me to identify the enemy’s feelings, and repair the cause. There are three people watching this from different directions, and I don’t think there are other targets in the hotel worth doing so.” Catoli’s voice remained calm, “but for now It’s better to stay still, after all, we don’t know who the other party is. “
“It will be clear after dark.” Josephine replied softly, revealing the predator’s unique focus in his eyes, “I will go to one of them and ask about it.” Ranger Speaking, he clenched the long sword stuck in his waist.
