Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 337 Is it really scary?
The soldiers of the city defense army are solving their breakfast.

Most of them are in their 30s and 35s. None of them are particularly young or very old. The oldest one is only [-] years old. They can bear hardships and stand hard work. They train six days a week from [-]:[-] a.m. to [-]:[-] p.m. The age of extra training.

And the suffering of hunger for more than a year has made this group of soldiers even more remarkable in terms of suffering. At this time, they are sitting casually on the grass, dividing the radish pies in groups, laughing and admiring all the time. , as if tasting some delicacies.

Cyril and Elena had already finished their breakfast and were wandering among the soldiers.The girl was very curious. She didn't know why these soldiers moved away immediately after their eyes touched her, and even lowered their voices. Some people made booing sounds, which looked like monkeys in heat.

It's strange.

But Elena didn't care about it, she and Cyril were talking in a low voice.

"My lord, why did we come to find this magic crystal first? In comparison, there should be more important things for us to do, right?" She counted on her fingers, "We need to help Cecilia Miss is opening up fields and needs to recruit people... Ah, the two mercenary regiments, and Mr. Leonardo, should be able to be recruited under her command, right? In addition to the construction of the city defense, there is also the need to communicate with the three cities... ..."

She counted and finished breaking off all ten fingers, and suddenly realized that the surrounding was too quiet, and turned her head to look, only to find that the half-elf boy was staring at her finished fingers without looking sideways.

Elena's face turned red for some reason, she immediately shook her hands, hid them behind her back, and said in a low voice:

"Why didn't your lord answer? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

"Ah, no, no." Cyril touched his chin with great interest—even though there was no beard there, "I was just wondering if Elena was not satisfied with her current position as a guard and wanted to be promoted to ... the manager?"

"No, no, no!" Alina shook her hand hastily, "You said these things, I just wrote them down."

Cyril didn't tease her, and continued: "Although there are many things, you have to do them one by one. The stone slab that Miss Cecilia found is repelling the magic power of you and me, so it needs a sufficient amount of infinite Only attribute magic power can be opened, and only magic crystal can provide that magic power."

"Siliki's underground is not as simple as we thought. In retrospect, the corpses carried on the vines that came out of the ground may be enough to prove it. If the things under the stone slabs exceed our expectations, I am afraid that today's farmland You have to change places."

Cyril explained, and watched Elina nodding her head hard, as if she wanted to write down everything in detail, and couldn't help poking her cheek: "You're not a mage, how can you remember so much."

"But my grandfather said that I also have the potential to open the element pool, which means that I also have the opportunity to become a mage, if not when I was a child..."

As Alina was talking, she suddenly lowered her head and stopped talking.

Cyril was stunned for a moment, and then recalled the girl's not-so-happy family background - the descendants of heroes and heroes embarked on the road of fulfilling the mission for their ancestors alone, and the noble children of this age should still be in the academy, let alone her Money is still preoccupied, and it seems that Gentry has never seen it.

He was thinking about how to relieve the embarrassment, just as Rhodes stood up and walked over, he said, "My lord, we can leave at any time."

"Then let's go, finish work early, and return to Siliki early." Cyril said repeatedly as if hugging the savior.

The entire team of soldiers was extremely efficient, and they lined up in an instant, and with a wave of Cyril's hand, they left Diodeluo Town.

Cyril looked back, but saw that Burton Hawthorne seemed to be clearing the table at the entrance of the tavern, but his eyes kept drifting to them at the entrance of the town.

What is he thinking?Do you want to see our regiment wiped out at the hands of the petrified giant lizard?
Thinking of this, Cyril couldn't help but whistled.

Although the infantry was mixed, the speed of the march was not slow at all.When they set off early in the morning, the fog along the river had not dissipated, and the hazy scene, combined with the fierce name of Lake Atsus, added a sense of quiet horror.

Walker, a soldier from Dietero Town on the road, exaggeratedly told stories to his companions, so that Cyril couldn't help leaning over to listen:
"Do you know, old Bolton said that the monsters in the Forbidden Lake are extremely terrifying, they are densely packed in groups, they will pour into the Diodelo River during the flood season, and occasionally harass the town, making old Bo They didn't dare to go out. The next day, when they went outside, all the radishes in the field turned into stones!"

"Those monsters can turn things into stone? Isn't that Medusa?" Someone shouted, "Medusa is not in groups, I know that!"

"Mages also have the spell to turn people into petrifactions. Who says it must be Medusa...but opponents who can petrify must be very difficult to deal with."

"And they are also very capable in hand-to-hand combat! It is said that they are so huge that they can eat a horse in one meal!"

Cyril heard what they said more and more outrageous, and thought to himself that this old gentleman buried mine here to shake the morale of the army, and then when the petrified giant lizard showed its skills and really petrified something, it would definitely scare the city defense army to pieces .

Unfortunately……

He glanced at the road that was gradually becoming muddy, and was about to give an order, but he heard Valk say:
"My lord, let's go back and call Baron O'Connor and Mr. Lecturer..."

"Oh?" Cyril narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes swept over Valk, causing the latter to shudder all over, and hurriedly trembled and said:

"Ah, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that everyone has no idea about this kind of thing..."

"Yeah, they all said that the thing is so powerful, if we..."

Seeing that the city defense army was getting more and more flustered, Cyril knew that Bolton Hawthorne's plan was indeed working - the unknown would become an indescribable fear under the exaggeration, not to mention the "Forbidden Lake" was famous for its viciousness. Let their fears continue to ferment, and it is estimated that tentacle monsters may appear at the bottom of the lake.

He lifted the rein lightly, and the horse stopped immediately.Immediately afterwards, he jumped off his horse, glanced at the stopped soldiers, and then drew out his long sword.

"My lord?" Elena whispered, but Cyril didn't say a word, just turned around and walked straight into the fog in the mud ahead.

"My lord!" Rhodes shouted loudly, but the figure of the boy disappeared quickly.He gritted his teeth anxiously, and glanced back at the soldiers behind him: it was this group of people who were timid before fighting, which made the lord feel dissatisfied with this, and took the risk alone.

He waved his hand, and was about to direct everyone to follow into the mud, but saw Cyril's figure reappeared, but the pace was much slower, the long sword was hanging by his side, and something seemed to be hanging on the sword——

Cyril stopped at a distance of more than ten meters from the crowd, and then exerted force with the long sword in his hand. A black shadow more than one meter long was thrown forward with his long sword, and fell heavily in front of the crowd. splash.

The long sword returned to its sheath with a sound of "Cang". He folded his arms and said leisurely:

"If you haven't really faced it, how do you know if it's really terrifying and invincible?"

"This is the first lesson I gave to you who are the Siliki City Defense Force."
