Home of the Brave

"I'm back?" Miranda raised her head and greeted when she noticed the man coming. "How's the scouting?"

"Tsk, it's a pity that the old guy was almost able to see Flaus..." Dai Yang shrugged, and said that he had taken a cold shot at Bloom, and concluded: "I see those guys. Morale is almost at the end, and the harassment continues like this, and the collapse of the team is only the matter of these two days."

"...It's not all your ghost idea." The witch gave him a sideways look, cut off a piece of the roasted lamb hind leg with a knife, put it in a basin and handed it over. "Eat, don't complain about the bad taste."

"Huhu, the lady who cooks the dishes herself is too late to be grateful for her husband, how can she complain?" Dai Yang smiled and took the barbecue, and started gnawing on the spot.

The grilled meat made by the maiden is still slightly salty, but it is much better than the burnt appearance of the previous few times. Dai Yang ate the roast leg of lamb contentedly, feeling a bit dry, and when he was about to say, "I want a little wine," the female knight from a distance walked over. Seeing Dai Yang beckoning to her, the female knight ran over with a whisper, sat next to the black-haired youth, and passed the cowhide water bottle in her hand with joy.

"This is... wine?" Dai Yang took the kettle and opened the stopper, and suddenly smelled a strong aroma of wine.

"Well, they want to compare swords with me. They said that if I can beat them together, I will lose this pot of wine to me." The female knight leaned against the man, kicking her legs and said.

"Together with you? How many people?" Dai Yang frowned upon hearing this.

"Six people." The female knight touched her cheek and looked embarrassed. "Well, because I was a little nervous and didn't have a good sense of measure for a while, it might be a bit heavier when I counterattack...Ah, but I use a scabbard, so I should rest for a night." Maybe it's for fear of my lover's misunderstanding, Xia Luwei's explanation sounded a little flustered, but Dai Yang smiled bitterly and speechlessly, and couldn't help but look at the adventurers who were limping away not far away with sympathetic eyes.

Judging from their equipment, they should be quite capable experienced adventurers, so that the six team members can even take down the abyss monsters, but they ended up in a disastrous defeat against the female knight. In addition, Xia Luwei seemed to have room for mercy in the battle...Thinking about it this way, Dai Yang couldn't be sure how strong her daughter-in-law was right now.

"...Well, it's interesting." Dai Yang patted his **** to stand up, moved his hands and feet, and suggested to the female knight: "Baby, do you want to sign with me?"

"Huh?" Xia Luwei was stunned, then revealed a surprised expression. "is it okay?"

"It's almost time to eat, what's there to say?" The witch over there just cut the mutton into pieces, frowned and looked at the interested two people, and made comments. "Besides, you don't have a sword?"

"It's okay, just move it a little bit, just as a pre-dinner exercise. When it comes to swords, I happen to have one too." Dai Yang said as he walked to the carriage and pulled out a handful wrapped in linen from under the straw. The long knife is coming--maybe it doesn't need to be explained, this long knife is the demon knife left behind by the jealous demon. Ever since he was shot by Gunganer on the stone tower, the demon sword seemed to be in a dormant state, and the original fierceness was no longer, so Dai Yang dared to take it out like this.

"Yang, this sword seems...very unusual?" As a female knight of the fighting school, she showed great interest in the crescent-shaped demon sword in Dai Yang's hand.

"Ah, this is what I picked up from the Valley of the Raven King..." Dai Yang was about to explain, but the witch over there suddenly let out an exclamation when she saw the appearance of the demon sword.

"That's... the demon sword of confounding!" Miranda fell off the dinner plate and rushed over, grabbing the demon knife from Dai Yang's hand and looking at it carefully, and asked eagerly: "Yang, why is this demon knife in your hand? superior?"

"I picked it in the Valley of the Crow King..." Dai Yang replied.

"Don't be kidding, I'm asking you seriously!" The witch obviously couldn't accept this answer.

"No kidding! I really picked it up on the top of the Crow King Valley Stone Tower..." Dai Yang smiled bitterly, sealed the Ji Yao into purgatory, and reiterated the matter of picking up the demon sword and the sky spear to fight. "Probably at that time I was hit hard by Gungnir, and the evil spirit on his body was shaken away. It was just a sharper ordinary scimitar... Well, anyway, I put it away and watched. See if it can be sold on the black market."

"No!" The witch gave the man a fierce look, and held the demon knife tightly to her side. "This mysterious sword is a secret treasure collected by the Stormwind Temple. It was stolen by the jealous demon. I came to investigate this matter...you dare to sell it!"

"Uh..." Dai Yang scratched his cheek, trying to come up with a compromise plan. "Well, can't I sell it to the Temple of Stormwind cheaper?"

"No!" The Miko responded angrily.

"Don't I help the temple to recover the secret treasure, don't even have a reward?" Dai Yang asked bitterly.

"Reward? Will my **** reward you with a thunder?" Miranda glared at him bitterly. "This demon knife was originally stolen from the temple by Jimon, but now that Jimon is imprisoned in purgatory is worthy of the crime, and you actually plan to save her... Based on this, Albers can let God's punishment come. On your head!"

"Hello, how can that work?" Dai Yang smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders. "If Albers kills me, won't his witches have to be widows?"

"Who...who wants to be a widow for you, idiot!" Miranda scolded the man, seeming to remember the question left last time, and emphasized it again. "Besides, I absolutely disagree! No one has ever been able to live out of purgatory, and you want to go to purgatory to save people or something. It's just death!"

"Well, I... I think so too." The female knight expressed her opinion without worry.

"...Okay, okay, I'll consider it carefully." Seeing the two daughters-in-law expressed their opposition, Dai Yang also had to make concessions. "Speaking of which, there are still things to do before going to Purgatory? The notice has just come down. The scheduled total attack time is early tomorrow morning. Take a good rest tonight and keep your spirits up, eldest daughters."

For the imperial soldiers suffering from the harassment of adventurers, last night can be said to be a happy time like heaven. There was neither a sudden cold arrow nor a sudden popping sound. Without any disturbance, all the soldiers enjoyed a peaceful sleep that made them grateful. In addition, the high priest handed down an oracle yesterday, saying that the imperial reinforcements will arrive today, and the morale of the entire team has risen for a while, and has survived the crisis of collapse.

Of course, Bloom's so-called "oracle" is actually a dangerous poison that only lasts for one day, like a powerful stimulant. If you know the calculations in the heart of this big Sim, no one can guarantee that these soldiers will not turn to the adventurers on the spot. It's just that the abandoned children who don't know their own destiny are still looking forward to a hopeful future.

"... I said, why haven't reinforcements come yet?"

On the temporary guard tower next to the camp, a young sentry in charge of vigilance frequently raised his head and looked towards the sky, as if he couldn't wait to ask.

"Puzzle, the sun has just risen." Another slightly older sentry next to him gave him a glance. "The high priest said it was today, but it's still long today. Maybe it's night or maybe... Watch me carefully before the reinforcements arrive. I can count on this for a while if I can go back alive."

"Yes...Yes." The young sentry saluted, looked at the calm appearance of the surrounding grassland, swallowed his saliva, and asked hesitantly: "Senior, those adventurers have not harassed since last night. , Inside... there is no conspiracy, right?"

"Who knows?" The older sentry shrugged and gave an irresponsible answer. "It may be that we know that our reinforcements are coming, so we retreat. It may also be that we are accumulating strength and are preparing to launch another wave of onslaught."

"Are...are you going to attack again?" The young sentry held his spear tightly, seeming to remember the scene of the last night attack. "No, but that's okay! We have the asylum of Flaus and the Sky Spear Saint Warrior. It's just a day, how can we keep it!"

"Hey, speaking of the Sky Spear Saint Warrior, haven't you seen it?" The older sentry didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly showed an ambiguous expression. "Although I have heard that the ladies of the Winged Race have a good figure, when I see it with my own eyes, they are still different from ordinary ladies!"

"Yes...Is that so?" the young sentry asked curiously.

"Of course! The **** are tall and the buttocks are upturned. It's better to have the white thighs dangling under the short skirts. I don't know how many people have been hooked... His grandma's! If you have the opportunity to go That kind of stuff, even if I die here, it's worth it!" The older sentry spoke with his five fingers and made wretched movements, while the young sentry heard a little panic.

"Senior, that... is the holy warrior of Gangnir. Isn't this kind of thinking a goddamn?"

"Holy warrior shit! As long as you take off the armor, isn't it a woman with holes and holes?" The older sentry snorted heavily. "Don't say so far, boy, look at our high priest. He hides in the holy warrior's camp all day without any problems. Guess what he will do?"

"What...what are you doing?" The young sentry suddenly felt a bit dry.

"Who knows? Maybe at the moment when we are working so hard to watch, the high priest is still trying to spread the power of God in the cave of Lord Saint Warrior..."

The elder sentinel was active with poisonous tongues, and gave out fully blasphemous lines. I don't know whether these words caused him to be punished by God, but just before his words, a sharp arrow suddenly shot through his throat, cutting off the remaining dirty words forever.

A second later, the second arrow passed through the young sentry's nose, and the latter shivered and woke up, and looked tremblingly in the direction of the arrow.

I saw the sky full of gray smoke on the distant grassland, thousands of adventurers clinging to the grassland, like a raging frenzy rushing here. The dazzling blade reflected the brilliance of the rising sun, curled into pieces and struck the scalp with murderous aura. The young sentry only felt that his hair was standing upright, turned his head and blew the alarm horn desperately, but even the sound was drowned in the shocking screams behind him.
