Chapter 41: nightmare

"No, I will meet him personally. I did a good job this time. I control the team. Don't wait for me. Keep marching at a constant speed." Bull Eriksson didn't hit his adjutant this time. Except enough, it’s reassuring to do things for people. As for the suggestion to shoot the opponent, he didn’t think about it at all. The consequences of angering a great knight are very serious, and angering a great knight who might carry a disease. It is not a serious problem.
Following the bulls are the great knight Ajer and a dozen surviving knights. They are the only remaining slave hunters who can travel long distances. Everyone's expressions are not very good, including the great knight. Ajel himself.
　　 Things are impermanent, and Ajel chose the safest method at the beginning, but he didn't expect the whole team to fall into the abyss of immortality.
　　 The disease came silently, and it was so ferocious. When Ajer noticed something was wrong, all the uninjured soldiers showed bad symptoms.
　　 Not to mention those wounded who were seriously injured and too late to deal with them. One by one, they got goosebumps, their complexion was purple, their whole body ached, and they were talking nonsense, hot and cold.
　　 When it was cold, even if it was the scorching sun, it was still shivering with several layers of animal skins.
　　 When it's hot, the whole person turns into a stove, even in the second half of the night, I can't help jumping into the cold mountain stream and soaking.
　　 But it is not a last resort, no one dared to do this, because the few slave hunters who jumped into the mountain stream were the first to die, and their deaths were strange.
On the third day, large-scale deaths began. The first ones who died were those who were seriously injured. The injuries on their bodies alone would cost them half of their lives. Coupled with the toss of an unknown disease, it’s strange not to die. Up.
Both Benson and Bartley belong to this first wave. The disease does not matter whether you are noble or not, it depends on whether your body can hold it. The small physiques of these two young masters are naturally the first to withstand the toss. of.
　　As soon as Bartley died, the great knight Ajel had no reason to stay here. He wanted to leave, but was shocked to find that he was also recruited.
Ajel’s shock is not without reason. When his body is tempered to the level of a great knight, the internal structure of his body has undergone subtle changes. It is a bit exaggerated to say that the transformation to inhumans, but they are indeed insulated from ordinary diseases. The great knight who died in battle has never heard of the great knight who died of illness.
　　 Even if a great knight really died of illness, it would have been a great knight once, and had already fallen out of the great knight level because of his old age and physical decline.
　　 In fact, at the knight level, they have strong resistance to many diseases, but the knight level is more powerful.
　　 It is precisely because of this that Ajel has no fear and continues to perform his duties until Bartley swallows the last bite. Unexpectedly, this epidemic is so sturdy that even the great knight will not be spared.
　　 But the physique of the great knight is there after all. Although the symptoms of the disease are the same as those of ordinary soldiers, it is obviously much lighter and still able to move freely.
However, it is obviously impossible to walk out of the mountain alone. Who knows if the illness will suddenly worsen halfway through. At that time, it is really bad for the ground and the ground is not working. In desperation, I can only hope The letter of help, just when they were about to despair, the reinforcements led by Bull Eriksson arrived.
The Bull Eriksson’s decisiveness far exceeded their expectations. Before they came out to say hello, they had already fought. Even in the face of their companions, they were not half-hearted. If they had this decisiveness in the first place, they would not fall. Up to this point.
They can’t give up the only chance to escape from nature, they can only follow from a distance, hoping to find a chance to contact again and seek help, even if they know that the hope is slim, judging from the previously revealed means, the leader of the other party Not a soft-hearted master.
　　 The dozen or so knights around Ajel were in the same situation as him. They were all regular knights brought by Bartley. Although they did not reach the level of a great knight, they were absolutely strong in terms of system. Although they were recruited, they did not lie down.
"Stop!" Ajer voluntarily called to stop when the Bulls Eriksson was 30 or 40 meters away from them. "The disease we got this time is a bit strange. Even the great knight can be infected. We don't Please return to the team, as long as you are willing to let us follow your team, I, Ajer Clark, will remember your kindness, even if I die, my children and grandchildren will pay it back. Just go to things and never harm you."
"Although I want to help you very much, but I have to think about my brothers. The things you carry are too dangerous. A little carelessness can cost thousands of lives." Bull Eriksson said in silence for a while, "and Even if you follow us, you can't get out of the mountain. Now Bastille has changed hands."
　　 "The Bastille has changed hands? What do you mean?" Ajer was taken aback, but he couldn't react immediately.
"We had a plan to adjust the tiger away from the mountain. We only left the Bastille with our front feet, and there was a night attack on the back feet. They took it all at once. If we want to leave the Bastille now, we will cross the entire Andes Mountains from the north of Odin. The steppe out of the mountain is either to cross the roof of the world, Sanset, or to find a trail from the mountain, or you can ask the current ruler of Bastille to let you pass through the city." From beginning to end, the bull Eriksson took Wearing a helmet, he couldn't see his expression clearly, but his tone was definitely not kind.
"What do you mean?" Although the great knight Ajel is not very happy, after all, he came from a big family and has seen a lot of intrigues. He understood the words of the Bull Eriksson in seconds, and was shocked by the anger. The news that the Bastille was captured, I was angry that the other party even pointed the finger at him, suspecting that I played a disgraceful role in the middle, "If this is really the game I participated in, how can I still stay where I am? Are you here to catch? How can you be so embarrassed?"
"Sorry, I'm the one who made a mistake." The Bull Eriksson leaned slightly, apologizing, but still insisted on his own opinion, "Your Excellency, I have no prejudice against you personally, but for the safety of everyone. In consideration, we really can’t walk with you. I will leave enough food and clean drinking water for you in the front. I only ask you to wait until the middle of the day to hurry. Keep a sufficient distance between the two parties. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee my subordinates. Can you control your emotions, once there is bleeding, there is no room for relaxation."
Both Ajer and his knights fell silent, and when they changed their positions, they would make the same choice, even more cruel. In the plague, the population of the Ashan continent once caused them in just a few decades. Under the horror of a sharp drop of 20%, human nature is undoubtedly selfish and cold.
"I accept your suggestion." Ajel was unwilling to fight the other side to kill the net. After all, the other side left them a chance. Following the trail of the large forces, they always have a chance, and after leaving the camp, he I feel that my physical condition has recovered a lot. Of course, this may also be a psychological illusion caused by seeing hope.
"Your Excellency made the most correct choice, I thank you for my people." The Bull Eriksson bowed sincerely, and then no longer stayed. Only he knew that he was far from acting. Calm, blessed by the God of Truth, this is an unheard of disease that even a great knight can contract.
Originally, the shadow that Erickson thought the disease was in his heart had long since disappeared as he entered the rank of the Grand Knight. Now he found that he was wrong, a big mistake, that kind of desperate fear has been hidden in his heart, not right, Inscribed in his body, it was only protected by the armor of the great knight level that could defend against plagues.
When this layer of armor was stripped mercilessly, he was still the lonely wild ghost in the prairie, looking around, except for the dead or dead, human, cow, sheep, horse, even The jackal wild dog, whose vitality is stronger than the weeds, has no trace.
Between the world and the earth, it seemed that he was left alone. The strong, suffocating rancid smell lingered in the nose, heart and lungs, mind, and bone marrow. Eriksson suddenly discovered that only the one who had survived that year It was a body, his soul rotted along with his family members in the great plague that year.
　　Since then ~EbookFREE.me~ The Bull Eriksson has been in a daze. When he regained his consciousness, he had rejoined Old Bolton and was only a hundred miles away from Bastille.
Regarding the news that the Bull Eriksson brought back, Old Bolton felt a deep sense of powerlessness. This kind of thing cannot be controlled by manpower. There was no thought of cooperating with the other party. It was not dancing on the tip of a knife, but preparing to push oneself into the abyss of immortality.
　　 The second confrontation between the coalition forces led by Sean and the Bastille had already begun the day after Old Bolton got the news.
　　 Hundreds of miles east of the Bastille, the ancient Jacob River is their battlefield. The main force of this confrontation is the young army and Andis mountain hunters on Sean, and the marksman army on the Bastille side.
Arnold is one of them. He is an out-and-out Andis mountain citizen in his early thirties. He is already considered to be an advanced age among Andis mountain people, because at this age, he can already be a grandfather. And Arnold is one of them. According to Qu, he is already the father of five children, the grandfather of two children, and the grandfather of one child.
　　Like most Andis mountain people, they form a small village based on their relatives and neighbors, and they live a life of half ploughing and half hunting.
Although most of the time is more difficult, the whole family will even go hungry together during the famine, but the Andes mountain range is very large, and the deep mountains are also quite rich. As long as the whole family is more diligent, the life can always be passed on. Arnold's superb archery and unique hunting skills are also inseparable.
