The white-haired old knight walked up to Zhou Qingfeng and stared at the sharp dagger with a sullen face. He took the initiative to extend his hand and said: "Young man. I am the Knight of Naser from the Principality of Os, and behind me are my subordinates."
The bonfire in the camp was crackling, and the goblins were hiding in the distance and whispering. The tall and thin bandit leader had nothing to do with himself, but he was still observing. Even the ugly man in the cage was staring.
The old knight's hand stopped between the two of them. The cavalry behind him all had straight faces, as if they were angry. Zhou Qingfeng glanced at the opponent's hand, slowly released the hilt of the sword and shook it. He thought of himself
When the ugly old man called out his name, he responded: "I am Victor Hugo."
The old knight smiled, seemingly satisfied with Zhou Qingfeng's calmness, "Sir Hugo, I'm glad to meet you in such a remote wilderness. Do you mind if I ask a few questions? As long as the information you provide is valuable, I will pay
Generously rewarded.”
Remuneration? This hit Uncle Zhou's weakness. He is tired and hungry now, and he has no money in his pocket. It would be good if he could earn some food and drink by answering questions.
"go ahead."
"Can I see the sword in your hand?" the old knight asked. There were more than a dozen knights surrounding them, with cold faces. Each of them looked much stronger than the ugly old man's group.
Zhou Qingfeng died countless times and asked himself that he was still not capable of dealing with so many opponents at once. He lamented that he had to pay tuition to read the file again, so he generously handed out the sword and wanted to see the follow-up plot.
The dagger fell into the hands of the old knight. He gently touched the exquisite patterns on the hilt and scabbard and sighed. He had already confirmed the origin of the sword. When he pulled out the sword, it revealed a cold light, which triggered a small burst of light.
Marvel.
The young cavalry shouted happily: "It's Princess Inisa's sword. We finally found her."
The goblins on the periphery were shouting "Oke Oke", but with a flash of sword light, the dwarfs all stood on tiptoes and stretched out their necks, staring silently. The tall and thin bandit leader's eyes were shining, but he remained silent.
On the contrary, the one who was imprisoned in the cage shouted angrily, "This sword is really good."
The old knight sheathed the dagger and breathed a sigh of relief. He asked his subordinate for a money bag, shook it slightly and made a jingling sound, and said: "Young man, can you tell me where you got this sword?"
"
The money bag was directly put into Zhou Qingfeng's hand. He weighed it, pondered for a while and then asked: "Before I answer, can you tell me the origin of this sword? Why are you interested in it?"
Zhou Qingfeng is still confused about his situation and the current world. Although he escaped from the ugly old man's gang of villains and escaped from the clutches of the angry dragon, he knew too little about the situation after time travel.
Already.
The old knight looked gloomy and whispered: "I am from the Principality of Os, and this sword is the sword of Princess Inisa of the Principality. A year ago, she was called Aratis by a girl at her eighteenth birthday party.
The red dragon was snatched away.
According to the oath it made when it left, we must find it within a year and pay a ransom in exchange for the princess, otherwise the princess will become its wife. In order to find it, we have tried our best, and now there is no one year left.
A few days.
If the princess cannot be found, I, as her guardian knight, will have no choice but to commit suicide. So please tell me, where did you get this sword? Have you seen Her Royal Highness? Is she okay?"
The old knight's eyes were focused and his tone was sincere. The camp was quiet, and everyone was staring at Zhou Qingfeng. He scratched his head, not knowing how to answer?
It was the ugly man in the cage again who rushed to ask, "Is this Princess Inisa von August Friedrich of the Principality of Oss? I heard that she was blessed by an angel when she was born, and even the God of Love is jealous.
Her looks and intelligence."
Zhou Qingfeng was distressed and couldn't help but glance at the ugly man who was locked in a cage and could only sit and curl up his legs, with his waist and head bent and tightened. He complained in his heart: "Brother, you are like this
Are you still interested in listening to gossip?"
The old knight still stared at Zhou Qingfeng and continued to say in a deep voice: "Young man, please help me. As long as I can find the princess, I am willing to pay you another reward."
The banging sound in the money bag was loud, and the subsequent reward was definitely more attractive. The goblins were screaming at Zhou Qingfeng in front of 'Oke Oke'. The ugly man was speechless, but the tall and thin bandit leader really turned his head and stared at Zhou Qingfeng.
The one escorted by the old knight
A carriage.
"Well, I have to admit that I have indeed seen your princess. She was trapped in a cave by a dragon, wearing a tattered pink dress, and she was in good spirits. Is this dagger given to me by her?
I came out to ask for help."
What Zhou Qingfeng said was half true and half false, and the second half was just nonsense. The old knight had been listening gently. But when he heard the two nonsense words, a brooch-like accessory on his collar lit up with a faint red light. But he
He remained calm and continued to smile.
"Sir Hugo, can you take me to that dragon's lair? It's the cave you mentioned."
"Well, I'm afraid that dragon won't be too happy to see me again. This will affect your negotiations with it."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can lead the way." The old knight insisted. He didn't ask about Zhou Qingfeng's origins, nor did he ask how Zhou Qingfeng appeared outside the Dragon's Nest Cave. He emphasized the follow-up rewards again and hoped to set off overnight.
Zhou Qingfeng could understand the anxiety of the old knight, but it was pity that he walked aimlessly in the forest for a long time. When he turned back, he didn't know the road. It was even more difficult to travel at night, especially in the dark.
"Sorry, I couldn't tell the direction when I escaped from that broken cave. It's impossible for me to go back at night. Let's try again after dawn tomorrow." Zhou Qingfeng said that there was nothing he could do.
The old knight looked at the accessory on his collar that was emitting green light. Thinking again about what Zhou Qingfeng said made sense, he could only nod in agreement. He then asked about the surrounding environment of the Dragon Nest, and Zhou Qingfeng's description was
"The knife-like peaks jut into the sky, and violent winds roar between the peaks. Under the peak is a steep cliff, and beyond the cliff are endless woods. I started from the cliff and spent half a day walking through the woods.
Come to camp before nightfall."
Zhou Qingfeng described the general situation, and the old knight quickly found a sheepskin map that looked like an abstract painting to find the specific location.
The goblins were whispering, and it sounded like the scream of "Oke Oke". The ugly man in the cage muttered something, but no one heard it clearly. As for the tall and thin bandit leader, he disappeared at some point.
.
The old knight finally brought Zhou Qingfeng into the group and sent two subordinates to take care of him. They gave him food and drink without having to do any work, but they also watched him and refused to let him leave. He quietly added a new save file for himself, and at the same time hoped that he would
Don't die so easily.
In the dead of night, Zhou Qingfeng was sleeping soundly while lying next to the fire pit. However, there was a sudden noise around him, and he woke up suddenly. When he opened his eyes, everyone in the cavalry team got up, looking wary.
The prison car that the goblins drove was still there, but the goblins were gone. The ugly man in the cage was still huddled inside. He snorted and sneered a few times, stared at Zhou Qingfeng and said: "Those goblins went to greet their companions, they must be
