The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 219

Holding the pin in his hand, William said to himself: "It turns out that this little thing betrayed our whereabouts. It's really an unexpected 'surprise'! I just don't know if there is any secret in it that hasn't been revealed. what."

Under the old oak tree filled with drizzle, "Firebird" Ruth spoke about her own history in a weak tone. According to Ruth herself, "Firethorn" and "Skylark" Al were harp players more than ten years ago. The best couple of the league's younger generation when they were ordered to join a powerful team to secretly escort a baby.

The team set out from the Sea of ​​Falling Stars and went through the Great Desert of Ennook to the Sword Coast region on the west coast of Faerun.They experienced monsters, evil mages, sand bandits, robbers, storms... and a series of tests of natural disasters and man-made disasters along the way. Most of the team members fell down on the long journey because of this, and there are many powerful fighters and spellcasters among them.But when the adventurous journey was approaching the end, an accident happened that surprised Al and others. The priests of the Temple of Goodness, who had been regarded as their partners in the past, led a group of people to besiege them.

Ruth calmly recounted the course of the battle, about the appearance, personality and preferences of each of the comrades who died in the battle, and about their talents that are worthy of pride: ". Laxie is a bad poet, although he always thinks I should focus on creating a magnificent epic, but we have always trusted his archery, because he always kills the enemy one step faster than our swordsmen. Of course, this often makes Manumo very unhappy, That big fool from the Badlands prefers to kill a foe with an axe than a dead body that can't move."

In a word, after a fierce battle, all the members died bravely, except for Skylark, only Al miraculously broke out of the encirclement under the cover of his companions, while the baby who was the protected mysteriously disappeared.

"...I was caught by them myself! They tortured me, tortured me, seduced me, and used spells to confuse me, trying to find the whereabouts of that baby, but... Hehe, I survived in the end. And ended up here Married and had a baby." Ruth smiled brightly, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

After a slight pause, Ruth said again: "In fact, I have always known the whereabouts of Al. Although he took the baby to Silvermoon City in the Northland to live in seclusion, the contact between us has always been maintained. .until...until he was discovered by Alustriel."

William quietly listened to the female ranger tell the story of the past, with a calm face as if listening to a bland storytelling.Of course, if Ruth's story is really boring, you can tell by looking at the eyes of the girls who are listening next to her.Who would have thought that a cook hidden in a small country shop would have such a dangerous past,

Two young warriors who once had a bright future were separated and kept their identities silently for more than ten years. One painstakingly raised the baby until the end of his life, while the other married and had children in this countryside (By the way, Lu Ruth's child, Jimmy, is only eight years old).

William had long guessed that Arabel's trip would involve a lot of things. Previously, he had always thought that he had encountered the so-called "Returning the Country of the Distressed Princess" or the otherworldly version of "The Orphan of Zhao".But judging from the situation along the way, it doesn't look like it. I really don't know what kind of existence this little girl Miluna is.

"Then what happened after that? What happened after that?" The one who spoke was Misha'er, who was listening happily. This little girl loves this type of adventure story to death, and she scratches her head every day, hoping to have A "soul-stirring" adventure, of course, all of this is indispensable to William, a sullen guy who is used to it.

Ruth seemed satisfied with the effect of her story. She smiled and said, "Then? Of course it is the way it is now."

Mi Sha'er curled her lips and said, "What! A story with a beginning and an end is the most annoying thing. Besides, what happened to that child in the end, can it just end like this?"

"Of course it's not over!" At this time, Ruth's eyes turned to Miluna who was leaning against Misha'er. The little girl was uneasy and uncomfortable, and an inexplicable expression appeared on the face of the female ranger. , then glanced at Misha'er again, "Mr. William is indeed a smart man, he actually knows to find another similar child as a substitute." Indeed, no matter how you look at it, Misha'er is more temperamental than Miluna ( more lively and energetic).

"Fart!" William was immediately enraged by the female ranger's words (I just don't know if it's real anger or fake anger), "This is my own sister, where did you find some messy substitute! Bastard! Who told you this Yes, or did you guess it yourself?"

William's normally calm face suddenly shot out an astonishing killing intent, which made Ruth's face turn pale, and the female ranger couldn't help but be shocked: Damn it!Where did that bastard Skylark find that murderous man? He is simply a giant dragon in human form. No!I'm afraid it's even scarier than a giant dragon!No wonder that bastard gave the child to him for protection so reassuringly.

But Ruth is not an ordinary character after all, she quickly managed to calm herself down, and said with a dry voice and wry smile: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just talking nonsense, just joking for a while. Just pretend that I never said anything. gone."

William snorted coldly and said: "Remember! Some things are not allowed to be said indiscriminately. Our brothers and sisters only helped to escort this child out of morality. If someone really dares to play tricks secretly, my knife is not a vegetarian!" The above said so forcefully, William felt really uneasy in his heart. Based on his understanding of the temperament of the girls in the north, it is really possible for them to do this kind of trick of stealing and changing posts to fish in troubled waters.

At the end, William added another sentence with a murderous look: "If Misha'er really has an accident, hehe—even if the king of heaven comes, I will not even think about living! I will kill all the bastards involved."

Ruth smiled wryly, she never thought that her unintentional words would actually anger the guy in front of her, but she only found out by chance a few days ago that although the man in front of him looked young, his skills were astonishingly fierce , It is said that great things have been done along the way.

Ruth said: "Mr. William, we are in danger now, it is best to leave this place and go to Xikangbu as soon as possible."

"Didn't you see it's raining? Wait until the rain stops before leaving. The two little girls can't bear the wind and rain."

Ruth stopped talking and said anxiously: "You don't understand. I encountered an inexplicable and terrifying thing half a day ago. I believe it should be aimed at you. Although I have temporarily thrown it away, the danger will come sooner or later. of."
