Chapter 433 The Market with the Army

On the periphery of the emperor's coalition forces, traders from Milan gathered spontaneously, forming a large market.

It is the so-called military market.

These markets are responsible for purchasing trophies obtained by soldiers on the battlefield, such as scrap metal, circuit boards, drone remains, and even synthetic human prostheses. Since soldiers had no idea of ​​their technical value, traders could buy them in bulk at low prices.

On the other hand, it was natural to use various drinks, entertainment and small items in exchange for the bounty the soldiers received for their military exploits.

Ask followed the three girls as they walked through the market. The vendors had set up countless small tents here, and the stalls and goods were placed directly at the entrance of the tents, concisely and clearly.

The girls looked at this and that, going back and forth between the stalls. Medea even found a beautiful silver bracelet. She put it on her hand and looked at it from left to right. It was clear that she liked it very much.

"Do you want to buy it?" Seeing her unwillingness to leave, Ask asked.

"No," Medea said simply, returning the bracelet to the stall.

"I thought you liked it," Ask said.

"I like it very much." Medea raised her eyebrows, "But guess, why does the market next to the military camp sell such small items that only women like?"

"I understand." Asik looked at the largest tent in the market, where women smeared with thick makeup were soliciting customers at the door.

Anyone who knows about the Oriole's Nest knows what kind of place it is inside. These small items on the outside were bought by the soldiers to please the women inside. No wonder Medea disliked them.

"Do you want to go in and have a look?" Seeing Asik's eyes staring over there, Medea rolled her eyes and asked with a smile.

"Yeah." Asik really wanted to go in and take a look. Not for doing anything, just out of curiosity.

After all, in order to pass the review for harmony in the original game world, there was a so-called "invisible wall" at the entrance to the Orioles' Nest. Many players even kept changing their postures and positions beside the wall, just to capture the indescribable scene (if any) inside the tent when the curtain was lifted.

You can never imagine how bored players can get.

Therefore, out of the habit of old players, Asik was also very curious about what was inside... However, Medea quickly pinched the flesh of his waist and turned it hard.

Ask turned his head expressionlessly. This amount of damage, to his current body, is not even scratching.

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to!" Medea threatened him viciously.

"Of course you know, don't you know how to read minds?" Ask frowned and said, "Then why are you still pinching me?"

"Ahem." Medea said, "Actually, I didn't read your mind just now. I thought... you just wanted to go in and have some fun."

"Since I don't read minds, how do you know I don't want to go in and have some fun?" Ask asked.

Medea:………………

"What topic are you talking about?" Nora, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and asked.

"Asker said he wanted to visit the Orioles' Nest." Medea immediately responded.

"I don't believe it," Nora said.

"Why don't you believe it? He just said it himself." Medea continued to provoke.

"Because I read his mind just now." Nora smiled as if she had everything under control.

Medea:………………

Wait, how could I not even compare to Nora in my mind? !

For the first time, she had strong doubts about her own wisdom, and Nora held Asik's arm with a victorious smile.

"Look, there are flowers for sale over there, leader! Let's go and have a look!"

As we all know, Nora is a girl who likes flowers very much, so when she saw a stall selling flowers, she immediately ran over with Asik.

Medea was still standing there a little lost, and she only heard Sheila's faint voice from behind:

"Aren't you going to chase me?"

Chase? Medea reacted suddenly.

No, I fell into a trap! It’s the ability to implant thoughts!

"Let's go!" She grabbed Silla's arm and said quickly, "Quick, light body technique!"

——————————

Ask and Nora came to the flower stall and saw a blonde girl with a perfect figure and long legs bending down and picking a bouquet of white flowers.

"Eleanor?" Nora said in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Didn’t you go to Weisbach’s family meeting?

"Nora?" Eleanor opened her mouth and looked at Asik, who was holding her arms, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just shook her head.

"Nothing. The family meeting is over and I'm going out for a walk." She paid the stall owner and smiled reluctantly at Aske, "I won't disturb you anymore."

Eleanor left in a hurry. Nora stared at her back and whispered to Asik:

"There's something fishy."

"Don't you know what's going on?" Ask asked her back.

"Actually, I didn't read her mind just now." Nora explained.

Then why do you always read my mind? Ask was completely speechless.

Nora showed an apologetic smile like "Can this be the same?" and then pointed in the direction Eleanor left: "Shall we follow and have a look?"

"Yes." As soon as Asik responded, his other arm was also hugged.

"Have you encountered anything interesting?" Medea leaned over with a smile.

"We want to buy flowers." Nora's eyes fell on the position where she held Asker's arm.

"Did you pick any good flowers?" Medea put a fake smile on her face and hugged her arms tighter.

"No, they are all unsightly old ladies." Nora also grinned.

"Do you two want to have a fight?" Sheila was holding a box of melon from behind, piercing it with a toothpick while eating it.

The two girls were stunned for a moment, and Asik took the opportunity to pull out his arms and skillfully changed the subject:

"I think there was something wrong with Eleanor just now. There was something wrong with her expression."

"Did you just meet Eleanor?" Medea was indeed fooled and her curiosity was aroused. "What does it mean that the expression is wrong? She has a boyfriend? She doesn't want us to know?"

"No!" Nora thought to herself, "I just saw her buying flowers and leaving, and her expression seemed a little sad."

"So it's lovelorn?" Medea guessed, becoming interested, "Let's follow him and take a look!"

So the group of people quickly searched for Eleanor's traces. Within minutes, she was found on the edge of the market.

There is a small hill to the north of the market, and many tombstones have been erected hastily.

The imperial soldiers who died in the recent war naturally could not bring their bodies back to the empire and could only be buried nearby on this hill. Those with tombstones and crosses are knights, but more are the resting places of ordinary soldiers, with only a shallow layer of tombs.

Eleanor came to one of the tombstones, placed the bouquet in her hand on the ground in front of the grave, stared at the words on the tombstone, and remained silent for a long time.

"Come out." She suddenly tilted her head and said.

Everyone walked out in disbelief.

"How did you find out?" Sheila asked.

"Will." Eleanor said simply. The high-level ability from the will sequence allows her to turn her will into mist and put it around her, thus playing the role of surveillance and investigation.

"Ellie, this is..." Nora pointed to the tombstone with a bouquet of flowers on it, but hesitated to speak.

"Remember Uncle John?" whispered Eleanor. "This is his grave."

Knight Commander John? Asik realized that he was the garrison knight captain of Mingxing City. He had also sparred with Hilda before. It was said that he had watched Eleanor grow up.

Did he also die in the recent war?

Everyone had some impressions of Knight Commander John, but they didn't remember him deeply. However, seeing Eleanor's sad expression, she was silent for a while.
