The next day, the sky was bright, and the Wilson Castle was lively. A team of light armored knights, with more than sixty people, was waiting at the gate.
"Be careful, don't stop halfway and go directly to your father's territory."
Mei Xue carefully told Mei Lin that she had learned that Mei Lin was going to the territory last night. At that time, the housekeeper had arranged everything. Even if Mei Xue wanted to stop, she was too late.
Merlin nodded, and then stepped into the carriage. This time, the journey was long and it took almost a day. In order to make Meilin available to familiar people, it was still Moss.
"Moss, let's go."
With the order of Merlin, Merlin slowly left the Wilson Castle under the guard of many knights.
The carriage quickly drove out of Heishui City. For the first time, Merlin came outside Heishui City and saw the world outside the city, so he did not meditate, but opened the curtain, and looked around the scenery outside the city.
The road outside the city is very bumpy. It is not as good as the inner city. It is inlaid with flat stones. The road outside the city is at best just some mud mixed with some gravel and randomly laid on the ground. In one place, even if Moss's skill in driving a carriage is even more proficient, it will not make the carriage stable.
Fortunately, Mei Lin's body has become very strong after the mysterious posture on the relief, so Merlin can still withstand this bump.
Merlin's carriage is in the middle of the Cavaliers team. When Merlin lifts the curtain, he can see a knight next to him. He is about 16 or 7 years old. That was caused by holding the sword for many years.
"What's your name?"
Merlin asked the young knight.
The young knight hurriedly and respectfully replied: "Master Merlin, my name is Yaggs."
"Yugs, how many years have you been in the Wilson Castle?"
"Master Meilin, I was selected by Baron three years ago, and after two years of hard training, I was finally promoted to become a knight."
There was a hint of gratitude and pride on Yaggs's face, and Merlin also knew that a noble knight was already a glorious thing in the eyes of civilians.
Become a knight of the nobility. In the noble territory, the whole family can get some tax exemptions or reductions. Therefore, to become a knight around the noble, but the dream of countless civilian children.
Jaggs can become a knight at the age of sixteen or seventeen. In addition to hard training, he should also have a high talent.
"Are you fire-family?"
Merlin continued to ask, because he could sense that some of the surrounding fire elements were continuously entering Yaggs' side.
"Yes, Master Merlin, I have the name of fire, but if I hadn't met Lord Baron, I would have starved to death. Lord Baron once said that a knight must be loyal, righteous, brave, and dedicated. Become his knight under the Lord Baron. This is also my first mission. This time, Master Merlin, rest assured that even if I encounter a thief, I will definitely protect your safety. "
Yags 'tone was solemn and sincere, and Merlin could feel that this was the real thought in Yags' heart.
Looking at the sincerity of Yaggs's face, Merlin nodded slightly, then lowered the curtain and retracted his head back into the carriage.
"protect me?"
Merlin shook his head, his physical fitness is basically comparable to the peak of the first-level elemental swordsman, and he is also a mysterious and powerful caster. What kind of protection is needed?
However, this also reflects the approach of Old Wilson from the side. His knights are all very loyal to Old Wilson.
This also caused Merlin's vigilance. Old Wilson's methods were extraordinary and very savvy. If he saw Old Wilson in the territory, he could not speak more, and he must be careful to avoid revealing flaws.
After seeing the scenery outside the city, Meilin lost interest after only watching for a while, so she lay sideways in the carriage and began to meditate on her mental strength.
"Master Meilin, has arrived in the territory."
Do not know how long, Merlin woke up from meditation.
"Are you here?"
Merlin opened the curtains and found that it was dusk, and it was getting dark. At the end of a rugged path, there is a huge castle, exactly the castle in Old Wilson's Territory.
The castle looks very old. The pointed dome, the bricks on the walls have been blackened, and a section of the wall can be seen that it has been renovated.
Merlin jumped off the carriage and walked forward. Several knights were guarding around Merlin. Even if they had reached the territory, they did not relax their vigilance.
"Stop, who are you?"
Just near the castle, four guards stopped the road.
A knight next to Merlin hurried forward and said, "This is Master Merlin. It is important to come to the bar to find the Baron Lord."
"Master Merlin?"
The guards were a little suspicious. They had not seen Merlin, but they also heard that Baron Wilson had a son named Merlin.
"Master Meilin, please wait a moment, and we will ask Pula to come and confirm."
The guard did not release Merlin into the castle, but sent someone to look for Pula's leader in the castle.
Merlin frowned. It wasn't because she was stopped and dissatisfied, but because the guards in the castle were a little too cautious. Could something have happened to the castle to make the castle's vigilance so strict?
"Ask in detail when Pula comes."
Merlin was aware that maybe something happened to the castle during this time, but everything had to wait until Pula came.
After waiting for a while, Pula's figure finally appeared. He walked over quickly and yelled out loudly, "Get out of the way, he is Master Merlin. You can see clearly now, and keep in mind that Merlin Master, come, don't stop! "
Leader Pula reprimanded the guard fiercely, and then brought Merlin into the castle.
As he walked, Merlin also asked, "Uncle Pula, has anything happened in the territory? Why is the guard so strict?"
Pula hesitated, and then said in a low voice: "It was not a while ago that a large number of thieves were found around the territory. For security reasons, the entire territory entered a wartime state and the security was very strict."
Mei Lin was a little surprised. He didn't encounter any thieves along the way. He thought that the territory was not invaded by thieves, but he did not expect the situation to be so severe.
