The ideal hometown of glory Nine of Five
Nine-5 Showdown
On the path leading to the residence of Lord Agvilo, more than a dozen strange knights appeared. Each of them was covered with a black cloak. Even his face could not show traces under the hat, which made his whole body exude a strong mysterious atmosphere. When passing by the farmland, the leading knight pulled the reins, and the mount roared loudly and stopped. The leaders working in the farmland stopped their work in surprise and stared at these mysterious visitors, all showing surprise and uneasiness.
"Excuse me! We have something to ask everyone!"
The leading knight took off his hat and showed a tough face:
"Where can I find a pub in this territory? We have been busy for a long time and want to sit down and relax!"
The knight's voice seemed to be too loud, which made the people even more overwhelmed. After a moment of silence, an old man came forward:
"Knights, where do you come from? What's the point of going to such a poor territory as Agvilo?
"It's inconvenient to tell you, old man, this is for your benefit. Anyway, please answer my question just now. We have been busy these days and haven't sat down to drink a sip of water, and we have to wear these hot clothes all the time. Such a summer is really unbearable..."
The old man stared into the eyes of the knight in front of him, and then turned his eyes to his messy red hair, and the expression on his face became more cautious. After a moment, he reluctantly stretched out his finger in one direction:
"Although Yagvelo is a poor territory, there are still pubs, and you can find them there. If you don't mind the poor wine and dishes in the countryside, please don't be polite..."
"Oh! Thank you, old man! It's really hard for you to work in the farmland in such weather! Everyone! Let's go to the pub to recover our strength first, and then visit that guy!"
The knights answered loudly and ran behind the red-haired knight in the direction pointed by the old man. The people gathered around one after another:
"Is it okay to do this? These guys don't look like good people. Maybe they are here to find Lord Roed's trouble!"
"It seems that the person who came to Agvilo for no reason is not good. Shall we inform the lord to send a guard there?"
The old man shook his head with a cautious look:
"They are not ordinary people. They all seem to have extraordinary strength. Maybe it is not enough to rely on the escort alone. We should not disturb Lord loyd with these things. Let's discuss with Miss Lena first to see what feasible she can come up with, and then decide on the next action. Let's take action now! If this hard-won territory is destroyed, I'm afraid we will be sorry to Lord Lawitz..."
The knights followed the old man's instructions and found the only place in the territory that could be called a pub. After exhaling with relief, they took off their cloak together.
These knights are actually college students who have changed into casual clothes, that is, all the members of the swordsman group, and the previous leader who disturbed the old man is of course the most rude Keke.
"Really! Why do you have to come out in this suit? It's just a stinky sweat! When you get to your partner, you must take a good shower to relieve the fatigue of your whole body!"
"Don't complain about Kik! We have no other way to run all the way to this place except dressed like this! To be honest, this territory is really too poor. It's so hard to find a pub, and it's a place that no one comes to visit in broad daylight! It's really a little aggrieved that loyd was appointed as the lord here!"
Gerard found a seat while holding an unevent for his companions, and the other students also sat in every corner. Kick greeted the waiter loudly. Perhaps because he saw such a scene for the first time, the waiter was scared for a while. It was not until Kick slapped the table again and ran to the kitchen while apologizing. Kik held his forehead and sighed loudly:
"After all, it's a rural territory, even the waiter lacks enthusiasm... There is no interest in drinking..."
"Is it really okay for you to do this, Kick? We are not old enough to be allowed to drink! Isn't it a little inappropriate?"
"Stupid! Who can see our age when drinking here? What's more, do people who dare not drink have the face to call themselves men? Think of us here to celebrate becoming a real man and have a drink as an exception! Otherwise, it may fall behind loyd!"
"What does it mean to fall behind loyd?"
"Idiot! Of course, loyd may have become a real man with Xilu! Don't you think so?"
"Is such a thing possible? Neither loyd nor Xilu seem to be such a frivolous person!"
"Maybe! People can't make simple judgments just from their appearance. Maybe the two of them have been unable to restrain their enthusiasm for a long time! In the college, you have to avoid everyone's eyes, so you have to restrain them. When you get to the territory, you don't care about those details!"
"What you said... Although it's still a little strange, you seem to have a point! Then let's make a joke on loyd and see how he will react..."
"But you really go too far, Kick! Those leaders on the road and the waiter just now were scared by you, weren't they? In this way, we may be regarded as suspicious and cause unnecessary trouble. It's better to restrain ourselves a little! After all, we came to our friend's territory as a guest, not out for a risk..."
"All right! I know! But this is my temper, and I can't change it! Otherwise, I'm not Uncle Kick... By the way, why didn't the waiter come back as soon as he went?"
"I'm probably scared away by you? Looking at your loud voice just now, everyone will be shocked by you, right? Then a little girl may have been scared to run home..."
"Is there such a thing? Why didn't I notice it at all?"
"Have you ever seen a poisonous snake poisoned by itself?"
"Do you mean I'm a poisonous snake?"
"It seems more appropriate to call a python for a man as big as you?"
"That's probably the case...hahahaha..."
It seems that he has long been used to jokes with his companions. Kick doesn't care about everyone's mockery. This general personality makes everyone's good impression of him completely replace the previous fear and disgust with him. In fact, his original personality is not so bad, but it is constantly triggered by his straightforward personality. All kinds of conflicts make people retreat from it, but once you make friends, you will find that this guy is not only rude but also a guy worth dating and trusting...
Sure enough, friendship is such an incredible thing. Even if there is any conflict with the people in front of you, it is difficult to hide the past. The identity between Xilu and Kik is caused by hostility, and the respect derived from fate by Loyde and Ferret quietly proves its existence.
After laughing happily for a while, they still didn't see the waiter. Not only that, even the owner of the pub seemed to disappear... He found that something was not right, and Gerald stood up uneasily:
"Should we leave here immediately? Do you think the atmosphere here is very strange?
"It seems so... Is this pub too quiet? We seem to be surrounded by someone... Didn't the waiter report us to the territory's guards as suspects?
"In a word, do you want to leave here first? In case the guard really comes, we have to explain..."
"So that's it! Everyone leave immediately!"
Kick slapped the table vigorously, and everyone stood up and was ready to rush out of the pub. As soon as they opened the door, they were shocked by the scene in front of him:
There are about 100 guards waiting in a neat phalanx. Looking at the situation, you will know that they are by no means ordinary soldiers, but a strictly trained regular army. Gerrard suddenly panicked:
"It's not a big deal! You really got into trouble, Kik! These people are not good!"
"Of course I can see it! And they are all good soldiers, and with the number of about 100, we have no room for resistance at all! However, I don't know why I suddenly want to have a good competition with them..."
"Hey! You are not crazy, are you? How dare you want to take these 100 people as opponents?
"There should be a possibility of a draw if we play together, right?"
"Does this guy still want to involve us?"
"We are not a group! The swordsman group can't be laughed at at the critical moment!"
Gerard wanted to say something more, but Keke had pulled out his sword and made a look of resistance. After confirming that the opponent was ready to resist arrest, the soldiers roared loudly and then the weapons in their hands lit up.
The long guns and shields in the front row, the swords in the middle row, the bows and crossbows in the back row... The 100-person army is completely a complete formation of a regular army, with both close combat and long-range attacks, and no flaws can be found that can be effectively used. Even Kick showed a dilemma:
"Your General Lafits really seems to be an ordinary person. He can actually train the soldiers in the territory to this extent, and his partner is really good at taking over such an army. Except for the number of people, he can meet the level of the Royal Guard! It seems that the possibility that we want to repel them is also very slim!"
"So I said don't think about that stupid thing! After all, we are not here to make trouble. If there is any harm caused by unnecessary disputes, we can't explain it to loyd!"
"That's right... Then let's challenge it a little bit! I'm not the kind of guy who retreats when he meets a strong enemy! I don't know why I suddenly felt full of fighting spirit!"
"Didn't you hear what I said clearly? Why do you just like to go your own way!"
"What does it matter! Think of it as a gift for your partner! I'm going! Don't be idle!"
"Sorry, we won't do such a stupid thing with you!"
"What nonsense! Aren't we friends of a group? How can you have the heart to watch your friends go up and die? What's more, as long as I do it, you will be attacked indiscriminately because of my colleagues, so let's be realistic!"
"What's the matter with this behavior of forced buying and selling!"
Desp>Despite Gerrard's loud protesters, Kik roared and rushed up to the soldiers. Seeing that he could no longer pull back the singing and advancing bear, Gerard shouted with regret:
"I'm really sorry, loyd! I have tried my best to stop this stupid bear! Everyone! Follow the staff! Prepare magic, but don't hurt each other's lives!"
As early as when they saw the array of soldiers on the opposite side, everyone was trembling with fear and said that they had no desire to compete with them. What's more, their original purpose was not to destroy the territory... However, for some reason, Kitk insisted on fighting with the other party and found a "this is The inexplicable reason of "a gift for the partner" dragged them all into the water...
But what's the point of complaining about these now? The fierce bear has rushed up and wants to sit idly by and ignore the obviously irresponsible behavior... In short, ask for loyd's forgiveness like Gerald, while launching a support attack as much as possible!
In response to the actions of the students, the captain in the queue issued a drinking order:
The first array! Go ahead!"
The gunmen flattened their guns, protected their bodies with shields, and formed a tight iron-walled formation to launch a counterattack against the students.
Because the whole body was covered by the tall shield, the students couldn't find the direction to break into. Seeing that the attack did not work, they could only retreat awkwardly. As soon as the students in charge of magic support in the back row sang the spell, they heard the captain of the other party issue a second shout:
The third queue! Get ready!"
The crossbowmen picked up their weapons and aimed their cold arrows at the students who were ready to wave their magic wands. The posture seemed to be a warning:
We can defeat you before you wave the magic wand!
Naturally, the magic wand can't swing it casually. If the front line loses support, it can only retreat again and again, but Kick's figure can't be found in it...
"Strange! Where did the big stupid bear hide? Where are the people! Why is it missing!"
Gerald anxiously looked for Kick, but did not find any trace in the retreating crowd. Surprised, he suddenly heard Kick's roar behind the opponent's array, and then the soldiers with crossbows fell down one after another.
"When did that guy run to the enemy's rear!"
It's probably taking advantage of the clash between the gunmen and the students, right? The students in the following column can use magic without hesitation... Gerrard is ready to seize this opportunity to launch a second round of attack to rescue his companions who were forced to go by gunmen, while the soldiers with long swords surrounded Kik under the order of the captain's "second assault".
So the originally improved battle situation turned sharply again, and the adjusted crossbowmen quickly gathered the team and once again aimed their arrows at the students who were ready to use magic.
It's really an impenetrable combat style! They seem to be trained to block the magicians desperately when their opponents have magicians, and their safety is completely handed over to their companions. In this way, the spearmen can still move forward steadily without hindrance...
Sure enough, compared with these well-trained regulars, we are completely ignorant laymen! Want to fight against them or something was a joke from the beginning!
After judging the irreparable conclusion, the completely desperate Gerrard threw the magic wand in his hand at his feet:
"Surrender! We surrender! Don't fight anymore!"
Kick on the other side has also been controlled by the soldiers as a signal, and the students also threw down their weapons one after another. After the captain confirmed that the students had completely lost consciousness of fighting, he shouted "end the battle", and the gunmen immediately escorted another commander, Gerard back to the array.
The whole battle lasted less than ten minutes, and ended miserably in the end of the complete defeat of the swordsmen's regiment.
"It's really embarrassing, big stupid bear!"
In the living room of the lord's official residence, Xilu laughed at Kick and others mercilessly, and even Lulu couldn't help smiling. All the swordsmen were very embarrassed:
"In fact, we don't think of this senseless conflict at all, but Kick doesn't know why he has to share the situation with the soldiers! I have persuaded them well!"
Gerard blamed Kik without complaint, and Ferdinand patted him on the shoulder helplessly:
"Think about your own problems before accusing others, Gerard. This is completely the dereliction of duty of your acting captain. You can't blame others. Moreover, Kik made the right choice in the battle, but you didn't seize the opportunity to turn the situation around in time, which made the swordsmen' regiment defeated, which was caused by your improper command.
"Isn't it too much to put all the responsibility on me?"
"How could it be! The cause of this matter is indeed Kick, but once there is a conflict with the soldiers, you, the acting captain, should be responsible for the team members to the end! This is the responsibility of a commander, right? So you really have to reflect on yourself this time, Mr. Gerrard!"
"Hmm! Has he become invincible because he was rewarded by the Queen for his achievements?
"That's not the case, Gerard, I'm not complacent at all about the so-called achievements, but give you advice as a deputy captain, because we are friends and comrades-in-arms. If you have a conflict with others this time, I don't think it can be solved by injuries. Anyway, you have to calculate such consequences and be responsible for the team members! After all, we don't want to hurt each other. Don't you think so?
Gerard sat aside speechlessly, and Ferdinand punched Kick's chest hard:
"Your temper is still as smelly and hard as your muscles! Knowing that there is no need to fight, why do you have to make such a boring **? If everyone is injured, you will take full responsibility!"
"Is it too late to think about it after that happens? However, I really didn't expect to lose so completely. It seems that the usual training is really not enough. As for why I did that... I just want to surprise my partner! Meeting gift! That's how it is said!"
"You guy... actually want to try the strength of the guard here, right?"
"I do have this idea... I want to see how far the partner can train the escort, but I didn't expect it to be unexpectedly strong. If I do it again, I will never do it again, partner!"
"That's the best, otherwise we don't know how to end it. After all, I'm the lord here first. It's impossible for me to easily ignore the person who started the riot, but we are also companions, which will make me very embarrassed, right?"
"What would you do if you really wanted to make a choice?"
"Of course, I will put you in prison."
The companions made a noise of dissatisfaction, and loyd shook his head quietly:
"Then I will also live in prison to have a good chat with you."
The noise turned into a laughter, and Xilu glanced at him with some dissatisfaction:
"What you lord have done is really affectionate and righteous!"
"What can we do? After all, we are friends who used to fight side by side... And I also owe everyone a favor!"
"Do you owe a favor?"
"Yes... No matter what I am now, I used to be just a civilian knight after all, right? But everyone has always treated me as a friend, which is a feeling that I will never forget, so I will not hesitate to make any sacrifices.
"loyd...you guy!"
Gerald jumped up and grabbed his shoulder:
"We are really ashamed to hear you say that... When you first appeared in the classroom, some of us laughed at and abused you mercilessly! So... on the contrary, we owe you a favor! Now that you are the lord of one side, we are still worried about whether you will have hatred in the past..."
"Loed is really not that stingy...but I'm not that kind!"
Xilu hummed softly and glanced at the swordsmen's group:
"You guys... Which of you have ever laughed at and abused loyd? Now I may consider forgiving you, otherwise..."
"Hey! Little girl, don't do such a terrible thing! We are all friends, aren't we? I remember that I had a good competition with you! Although I lost that time, that's right... It's not interesting to always remember these past events!"
"Who are you talking to, Big Stupid Bear? Who is the little girl? I'm the future lord's wife of Agvilo. Please call me Miss Xilu! Otherwise, I will knock you on the head rudely!"
Kick laughed rudely:
"That's really rude... Partner, can I beat her up?"
"It's not too late to talk about such a thing later. Since you have come to Agvelo thousands of miles away, let me treat you well. Although it's just a poor small territory, I hope you don't blame me for my rudeness. Anyway, you must have brought something important when you come here this time. News and gifts, right?
"Of course! As long as it is related to your partner, you will never forget it! First of all, the territorial funds you are most concerned about, right? A total of 5,000 gold coins have been given to you!"
Kick took out the gold coin exchange voucher signed with the Queen's Dream Flower Seal and the Ralinforth Cross seal from his arms and handed it to Lulu:
"It was delivered safely, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief... 5,000 gold coins is also a large amount, right?"
"For Yagvilo, it is a more important gift than anything else, and he doesn't have to worry about financial problems for at least a year. After returning to the royal city, you should thank the high priest.
"As for the war report you are concerned about... Ferdinand should have already talked about the situation of the northern front, right? At present, we are ready to take back Weiland!"
"Has the situation become so favorable to us?"
"At least now our warship size is not inferior to Sierras, so even if we can't win an overwhelming victory, we can at least completely stop their offensive. Another piece of news is that Prince Lyon on the Western front has led a large army to attack the Kingdom of Herland, and it is going very well!"
"It's amazing, isn't it! It's worthy of Mr. Lyon!"
Fednam sincerely praised, which caused Lulu and others to nod repeatedly, but only did not get the same response from loyd, but saw his uneasy look:
"Did Prince Lyon launch an attack on the Kingdom of Heland? Who gave this order?
"Is it probably the order of the royal family? Otherwise, it is impossible to mobilize him easily... You seem to be a little uneasy, partner? Don't worry, what he now leads is not the coalition forces of various territories, but the regular army of the Wang family, as well as the cooperation of a considerable number of Fenrill knights and warships! There will be no problem under the command of his Changsheng General..."
"No... that's what I'm worried about! Mr. Lyon may be facing a crisis... Why is this so?"
"Oh?"
The previous excitement was extinguished by a basin of ice water, and everyone showed surprise, and Xilu's face was even more indescribably pale and panicked. Loyd didn't mean to joke at all, and his face was as solemn as black iron and frightening.
