Before Overwell started speaking, he took out a necklace from his arms. It was a very common brass necklace. There was a beautiful crystal pendant hanging on the polished chain, with a line of small words written on it: Freya.
He showed the necklace to the girl and said, "She carries this necklace with her, and her name should come from it. But it is actually her mother's name, Her Royal Highness."
"Her mother?" The girl held the necklace with her slender hands, her expression unchanged.
"It was Everton's wife who died in the riot seventeen years ago."
"Then this girl should be Everton's only descendant, right?"
"Exactly."
"Since Mr. Fulwell is here, then this little girl must have successfully escaped, can you say so?" the girl asked.
"You can say that, but the process is a bit bizarre." The middle-aged man nodded indifferently, but his eyebrows slightly raised, as if he remembered something interesting.
"Oh?" The princess was slightly surprised.
"Actually, it's mainly about that young man."
"So it's back to him?"
"No, it's just that the young man has always played a wonderful role in the whole process. It sounds like a light sentence to say this, but in fact the entire escape journey is full of unpredictability - there were several times when the situation was so critical that even I
They were all a bit unable to intervene, and many people could not even imagine that situation, but they still let him move back forcefully——"
When Overwell mentioned this, he couldn't help but sneer: "To put it bluntly, compared to some incompetent people, this young man is probably the only one who made Madara eat a turtle once in this battle.
.”
"Oh?" The girl's light silver-grey eyes lit up slightly.
"Especially because he also got something good in the process," the middle-aged man said, unable to help showing a look of reminiscence: "But what it is, I have to wait and see."
"Now that I'm talking about it, I'm even more interested in hearing about what kind of person this young man is, even Lord Overwell is full of praise. It's just that time is running out, so please start."
Overwell nodded, took a step back, and continued to tell what happened that night...
Freya heard Su whistling to her on the street corner. It was clear and sweet, and it sounded like the voice of a nightingale, but it was a warning. She quickly turned around and found that four or five strangers were surrounding her on the street.
When I came up, I knew that my previous actions were a bit too big and aroused the hostility of the other party.
Without thinking, she pushed away Roman's distant relative and rushed into the house. When the people behind her saw it, they immediately quickened their pace to catch up, but Freya had already rushed into the bedroom, closed the door, and then fell over.
The cabinet is blocking the aisle.
A banging sound was heard immediately, and Freya felt as if her heartbeat was about to rush out of her chest. She looked at the window on the side - gritted her teeth, protected her head with both hands, and jumped out from there with a 'swish' sound.
Eruin jumped out of the wooden lattice window that most ordinary civilians were still using at this time of year. Even though he was protected by the wind, he still hit Freya's arm, causing a faint pain in her forehead. She hit several people from the ground.
I climbed up and found that I had reached the alley behind the street. I raised my head and glanced left and right, just in time to see Su stumbling into the alley from the other end.
However, the girl's face turned pale, as if she had seen a ghost.
"Su!" Freya stood up and shouted halfway, but half of the words were stuck in her throat.
She raised her head and looked at the dots of blue light that were all over the sky moving towards the center of the sky. At first, the girl didn't realize what it was, and was still stunned for a while. Then she suddenly realized that it was an arrow.
.
The arrow that ignited the fire of the soul was the masterpiece of Madara's skeleton archers. The experience of that night in Butchi suddenly came to her mind. Freya shouted to be careful, and rushed over to protect Su from her body.
Down.
The arrows rained down immediately, and countless arrows crackled on the tiles of the nearby houses. The thin layer of tiles could not stop Madara's specially made conical heavy arrows, and soon there was a sound inside the house.
There was a scream. Freya felt Su hugging her on the ground and shivering. In fact, she herself was not much better, her face was pale, and she felt that her heartbeat was about to stop.
Several arrows hit the blue wind feathers surrounding her body, and bounced outwards. Freya didn't know that the defense of the half-body armor after the stroke in the game was the terrifying wind feathers with 3 points of all-round protection, and the half-body armor
It has 2 points itself - but in fact, the defense of the full body armor is only 3 points.
Therefore, she always thought that she might die in the next second, so she closed her eyes tightly in fear, but her body remained motionless to protect the girl below.
For about a minute, two waves of arrows rained forward and backward, and the crackling sounds around them finally became thinner. Only then did Su and Freya tremble and open their eyes together. They glanced at each other, and each saw lingering fear in their eyes.
"Skeleton...skeleton...skeleton, outside." Su said with some difficulty in breathing.
Freya was startled for a moment, and then she felt a chill in her heart. She understood that Madara's army had entered the city. She never doubted that Brando would lie to her, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Now she understood why he would always be like that.
Deliberately ask for time.
The future Valkyrie immediately got up when she thought of this, grabbed Su's hand and pulled him up: "Su, let's go!"
"Where to go?" Su asked, somewhat at a loss.
"Run! Get out of here! Let's leave this place together!" Freya's heart was in chaos. Only at this moment did she truly understand how much pressure Brando was under. She thought about it again and again, but she could only think of taking one step at a time.
Let’s talk about it after seeing Brando.
"I want to go back, my father is still in the store."
"I will go with you."
Su nodded.
Bonoan Market is on the west side of Lidenburg, close to the Pine River, and the Copper Dragon Story Bar is on the north street between Bonoan Market and Travelers Bridge. The distance in between is not far. But when you wait until Fu
When Leya and Su arrived there, people were already gathering on the street and outside the bar because of the raging fire in the west gate direction——
Since that night, first there was a fire in the House of Nobles, and then the guards were frequently mobilized, which was full of unrest. Therefore, people were already whispering to each other, asking each other what happened.
Some of them thought that Madala's army had arrived at the city, and some thought that the nobles in the city were attacking, but they did not expect that the undead army had entered the city. Freya and Su separated from the crowd and found the boss of the 'Red Copper Dragon Story Club' and its guests
They had all run outside and were gesticulating in front of Ximen, which was in flames.
As soon as Su saw his father, he rushed towards her, like a baby swallow throwing herself into the forest. His daughter's behavior made the bar owner Leto slightly stunned. He patted the girl on the back to calm Su down for a while, but the latter
But he stood on tiptoes and said something in his ear. Leto's eyes darkened. He first looked at Freya, nodded to her to express his gratitude, and then faced the group of mercenaries beside him - Freya's attention
Most of these people were his guests before arriving.
Leto clapped his hands, causing those people to stop and look at him. Some even ridiculed: "What's the matter, old Leto, are you going to treat us to drinks because of these big fireworks?"
Everyone cheered loudly.
But the bar owner replied: "It's okay to invite you for a drink, but not today. Listen up, everyone, Madara has entered the city."
When he said Madara had entered the city for the first time, these people didn't understand it, and it took them a few seconds to react. Then Leto added it again, and then all the more than 30 people at the scene fell silent.
.
This is real?
This sentence is clearly written on everyone's faces now.
"Su told me, she wouldn't lie to me." Leto said frankly.
Freya frowned slightly. Most people would not discuss this news in public, because even she knew it might cause panic. But unless Leto has not considered this issue, or he has his own plans, in
The possibility of the future Valkyrie seeing the latter is probably much greater.
It took some time to digest the news, and then someone asked with some difficulty: "What should we do?"
It seemed that everyone present gave priority to such an issue, rather than turning around and leaving immediately after hearing the news, or shouting. Freya carefully watched the reactions of these people, and suddenly realized that there was a difference between this bar and its regulars.
The relationship between them may not be as simple as it seems.
"Kill out."
"Let's all fight out together," someone suggested.
"How to get out?" someone asked again.
Since Madara starts its attack from the west gate, in the eyes of ordinary people, the farthest east gate should be the safest place. But the mercenaries are people who came out of the battlefield, and most of them have some basic tactical literacy, Elu
Because sieges focus on three sides and one side, the key factor depends on whether it is a surprise attack or a siege.
Moreover, Madara's tactical purpose is also very important. Is the undead trying to kill people, seize the city, plunder, or have further targets?
This is also a major difficulty in the battle between the Light World and Madara, because it is difficult for the living to judge what the dead want to do and what kind of tactical intentions they have.
There were many different opinions for a while, but no one could come up with a method that could convince everyone. Freya waited anxiously for a while, raised the hand holding the sword again and again, and finally inserted a sentence rashly: "
I, I think I know someone who can take you out of the city—"
Her words made everyone present fall silent and turn their attention to her. Some people recognized her and even whistled: "Isn't this the little girl just now?"
Freya blushed in front of everyone. She didn't expect that she would say it like this. She couldn't help but think that she was making the decision for Brando - would Brando blame her? She suddenly
I found that I was very afraid of this, but I calmed down and thought about it - from Brando's perspective, he had been looking for help, so all he had to do was gather these people into a useful force.
But how can we bring these people together?
At the end of the day, the future Valkyrie was hesitant - could she do it? As a mere militia captain, she would find a way to command these experienced mercenaries who had gone through life and death on the battlefield.
But Freya calmed down quickly. The most she could do was give it a try. The girl thought so, grabbed her sword tightly, and held it nervously in front of her chest.
She looked a bit reserved like a girl. Others had no choice but to turn their attention to Leto, who introduced her: "This is the lady who saved my daughter before."
"Then Miss, how can we believe you?" Then someone asked later.
Here it comes. Freya took a breath: "Of course you can believe me. Do you know why those guards wanted to arrest me and my partners before?"
"Why?"
"Because we are Butch's militia, which was invaded by Madala two days ago. Our companions and I escaped from Madala's clutches just to report the news to Ridenburg, but the nobles
We were disappointed by the response—"
She paused for a moment: "I guess you don't expect those people to save you, right?"
"Of course, those maggots."
"Maggots. That's a good description. Cheers."
"Have a drink." The crowd responded one after another.
"You mean, you have a way to avoid Madara's attention?" Leto glanced at her and asked.
