Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 39 Swallow it [Ask for a ticket! 】

Cyril hid all his panic under his calm eyes, as if he casually glanced at his shabby equipment.

Of course, in terms of its own quality, it is indeed very shabby.He didn't have a set of general equipment for the whole body, and the clothes were warm clothes. Except for the long sword and shield, which were passable, the rest could not even be compared with those stationed in remote places.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a trace of sadness in his eyes: If he hadn't been reincarnated in this unshitty northern border, would he have ended up so poor?

Transferring a rogue, going to fight, cheat, and sneak attack, isn't it much richer than in this place?

But the sadness he could not help revealing was captured by Ruize. Excellent wizards are all chasers of details—although the details they chase are sometimes strange, but it is true.

So Cyril saw Ruize wave his hand boldly:

"Of course, how could the Tower of the North Wind allow such a young and promising knight to dress so shabby? Brother Ivor, don't worry, even if I deduct a Gentry of next month's research funding, I will still give it to you." Go get a good set of armor!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up abruptly, strode towards the door, and said: "I'll get you a set of armor, you just lie here, don't move around."

With a vigorous and resolute appearance, he really deserves to be a six-ring mage of the atmospheric system.

As soon as Ruize walked out of the door, Caroline, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly jumped out of the bed, lay on the closed door and listened carefully, until the footsteps belonging to Ruize were too far away to be heard. Then he ran back da da da da, and pointed at his mouth towards Cyril.

"You have something stuck in your mouth?" Cyril interpreted the girl's strange sign language with a strange expression.He is still in a powerless state, so he can only let her lie down beside him, and then look at the girl's open mouth through the light, only to find that there is a piece of green light inside...

"You put that necklace in your mouth?!"

Cyril's eyes widened. Now is not the time to thank Caroline for using her physical body to protect the equipment she has worked so hard to get back. This thing is like a time bomb, and it will explode when it is placed there. Let out a cloud of fog of war full of poisonous gas, not to mention being directly held in the mouth by Caroline!

People will die!

He quickly stretched out his fingers to clamp the iron chain of the necklace in the girl's mouth, only to realize that Caroline's mouth was too small, and he couldn't stretch his fingers in it. He didn't know how she usually managed to eat so fast and Many.

But fortunately, as a top-notch wanderer, Cyril's skills are really good, he clamped the iron chain of the necklace in a few strokes, and then pulled it hard, and took out the necklace easily.

"It's dangerous." He breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to reprimand Caroline, but found that the girl opened her eyes wide, pointed to the necklace in his hand, and then pointed to her stomach.

Cyril looked down, the iron chain of the necklace was torn out by himself, but...

What about the pieces above!

"You swallowed it?!"

If it wasn't for the lack of strength in his hands, Cyril would definitely have jumped up at this moment, holding Caroline's feet and turning her upside down until he threw out the fragments that had been swallowed by her.

But now he can only stare at Caroline, and the girl opened her mouth slightly after a while, hiccupped lightly, and then said weakly:
"No, Mr. Adrian, it just slid down by itself, as if it was sucked in by the stomach, and I really just wanted to hold it."

Cyril felt the corners of his eyes twitch, fearing that the little girl in front of him would turn into a skeleton in the next second.

"Did you feel uncomfortable, such as uh...stomach pain? Weakness? Want to scream? Or something else, like wanting to become a dragon?"

The more he talked, the more confused he became. After all, he really didn't know what would happen if the fragments of the corrupted orb were taken by ordinary people. Morris was another matter. As a mage, he wanted to use the power of the necromantic system. causing the Orb of Corruption to consume him.

But then again, Caroline is not a "normal person".He recalled that in the battle to defend the capital of La Rochelle seven years later, Twilight Shadow seemed to have at least three pieces of legendary equipment...

Although the current Caroline has nothing to do with the future Twilight Shadow at all, but her talent lies in that only an epic-level corruption orb can't do anything to her... right?

He looked at the girl expectantly, but Caroline just rubbed her flat stomach and whispered:

"Mr. Adrian, I don't feel bad if I don't want to scream, but I'm a little hungry."

"A little hungry?"

It was only then that Cyril realized that the sky outside the window was completely dark, and the sky in the northern border was as clean as snow on an ice field. Standing by the window on a moonless sky, one could see the stars all over the sky.

"Are you hungry until now?"

"Sister Mia said she would bring food back." Caroline stretched out her small hand, touched Cyril's forehead, and retracted after confirming that the temperature was normal.

"Sister Mia ran over and said that something happened to Mr. Adrian, so she brought me here. When I saw the bald head wearing a hat, I put Mr. Adrian's necklace in my mouth."

"The bald head with the hat? You mean Ruize? He has hair." Cyril said in surprise.

"He didn't have it before." Caroline looked confident. "He put it on his head later."

Cyril couldn't help being silent. It seems that although the Magistrate is noble, he is extremely cold - Roderick is like this, and this Ruize is also middle-aged.

He sorted it out in his mind, and roughly sorted out the timeline.He fell, and Ruize, who was driven back, saw and rescued him, and then Ruize went to deal with the Tower of the North Wind after the war. Mia called for Caroline, and Caroline put the necklace in it before Ruize "twisted" herself. In the mouth, pretending to be an introverted girl...

But why did Caroline take the initiative to hide the fragments of the Corrupted Orb from Ruize?
"He is not a good person." The little girl said crisply, "I feel that he is not a good person, and he has a smell that I hate."

"But what about the necklace?"

"It wants me to swallow."

"It's all based on feeling?" Cyril was a little speechless, feeling that this kind of thing was completely unreasonable, and he couldn't explain it with common sense.

But for gifted people, it feels very reasonable and sufficient-because the choices they make will always lead to a result that is beneficial to their development.

Caroline in her previous life was brought back to the north of the Maitland Mountains by the undead, and she did not know what kind of pain she had experienced before she grew into the "Twilight Shadow"; in contrast, if Caroline still had to walk away from the undead in this life If it is the road of the department, then this start will be much smoother.

Of course, Cyril didn't want her to take such a path again. After all, although there is no right or wrong in power, most mages who practice necromancy will eventually fall to the side of the undead.

After all, he still didn't have the means to take out the fragments of the corrupted orb.

Now I can only hope that Caroline's weird talent can make the fragments of the Corrupted Orb docile in her stomach, and I can only hope so.

"Yeah." Caroline nodded, rubbed her belly again, and let out a long "goo"——

"I'm hungry." She blinked and said again.

Just as she finished speaking, she heard the door of the room being pushed open with a "creak", and a slim figure walked into the room.

With the help of the light, Cyril saw clearly that it was Mia who came with a dinner plate.

She cut the steaming steak without saying a word, forked a piece and handed it to Caroline, and when she came to Cyril, under the light, Cyril found that her face was streaked with tears.

"Mr. Wei, you just finished the battle, eat it while it's hot." The girl's voice was completely different from the gentle and watery voice in the past, with a hint of hoarseness, and there was an inadvertent voice change, like a crying voice.

"What happened? Miss Mia." Cyril asked softly and tentatively.

"Mr. Wei." She leaned against the bed, put the dinner plate on her lap, and passed the fork to Cyril's mouth, but the suppressed emotions could no longer be stretched, and she let out a sobbing sound:
"I was expelled from the academy."
