Lord Highlander

   Chapter 404 403. Decision

There is a public bathroom in the dormitory of the Knight Academy, but only the teachers and students of the Knight Academy can enter it. Natasha followed the girls next door, Linna and Nedra, to take a bath in the public bathroom of the academy, while he stayed in the dormitory room. Put the torch with the bronze handle on the table, find a clean rag and carefully clean the dust and stains on the torch.

Until the pattern on the torch clearly emerged, Suldak found that the surface of the torch bought in the lighting magic store was actually engraved with complicated magic patterns. Like the shining saber, it did not have a gemstone base. When he put his hand on the On the handle of the torch, the heavy torch conveyed a metal and cold texture, and the moiré marks on it made the torch not so slippery to hold.

Suldak carefully injected the sacred aura in his body into the torch. The torch itself has a faint suction, and it actively guides the sacred aura to flow slowly along the specific magic lines on the torch. Where the sacred aura flows, The dark lines hidden on the torch will emit a stream of holy light, just like the sun breaking through the dark clouds in the sky, forming beams of light on the ground.

  The top of this copper torch is designed like the female wall on the top of the watchtower. When the holy light is completely ignited, the light on the four walls of the torch gradually disappears, replaced by a sacred flame on the top of the torch.

The magic note kept sending signals to him in Suldak's magic pocket, and then Suldak took the magic note out of the magic pocket, placed it on the table and flipped to the last page, Celia. Magician Cooper held the railing with both hands, looked curiously at the torch in Suldak's hand, her eyes gradually brightened, pointed to the torch in Suldak's hand and said, "Where did you buy it?" The torch of holy light? It is said that this thing is a weapon blessed by the Statue of Liberty, and it is only a special weapon for the battle priests in the temple. Others pick up this torch and it is no different from ordinary iron!"

   "Wait... I seem to have guessed it, maybe as long as you have the power of the holy light, you can light the holy torch!" Celia Cooper said excitedly.

   "This torch is called the sacred torch?" Suldak asked suspiciously.

Celia Cooper stared at the torch with gritted teeth and some gloating, and said to Suldak: "That's right, back then the battle priests in the temple held sacred torches and flails and hunted black people all over the world. Magician, I really have a deep memory of this weapon!"

  Suldak danced in the room twice casually. Apart from feeling slightly heavier, the sacred flame on the top of the torch danced with the torch, and it didn't feel any power.

   "The holy light on this torch restrains all undead creatures!" Celia Cooper said while staring at the holy light torch.

"So that's how it is!" Suldak said, while stopping releasing the sacred breath, the torch in his hand was slowly extinguished, and said with a sad expression: "If you had this weapon when you participated in the winter hunting, Maybe Llewellyn won't die!"

   "Maybe the one who died will be you!" Celia Cooper said to Suldak unceremoniously.

Suldak understood what Celia Cooper meant. In such a battle, he might be easily targeted by the necromancer. If it wasn't for a sneak attack, he really didn't have much confidence in defeating the necromancer who commanded a large number of undead .

   Seeing the holy light on the torch in Suldak's hand slowly go out, Celia Cooper breathed a sigh of relief.

  …

The moonlight outside the window left dim light grids on the floor. Beatrice and Hathaway sat opposite each other on the floor-to-ceiling window sill. Holding a glass of golden cider, Beatrice had long hair hanging loose. She had just taken a shower, and the blush on her face hadn't faded. She looked up at the bright moonlight in the night sky, her eyes seemed a little blurred.

  The lights in the city of Bena were extinguished one by one, leaving only the criss-crossing street lights to outline the outline of the entire city.

   "Do you think what Cole Norton said is true?" Beatrice asked Hathaway softly after taking a sip of the golden cider.

  Hathaway lowered her head and pondered for a while, before saying: "He has no reason to lie about this matter, it is of no benefit to him, he can't be so boring."

   "Then are you going to Hailansa City?" Beatrice's eyes became bright, staring at Hathaway and asked.

  Hathaway's heart moved slightly, but she asked stiffly, "Why?"

   Beatrice replied as a matter of course: "Of course I went to him."

She suddenly stood up from the window sill, and said excitedly to Hathaway: "Speaking of which, what I saw that day should be correct. I always thought it was my hallucination, but I can be sure now that what I saw that day It must be him."

   "Hey, what are you talking about?" Hathaway was confused by what her best friend said, her light green eyes stared at Beatrice's fair face.

Beatrice seemed to be lost in memory, standing under the moonlight like water, and said: "I mean in the summer, we were still preparing for the graduation ceremony in the Swordsman Academy, and I seemed to see Sulda Ke Knight was standing outside the academy. He saw me, and of course you, but he left without meeting us for some reason. I saw his back when he turned around. At that time, I couldn’t be sure that it must be him. Now Looking back, he must have come to the Swordsman Academy to visit us."

  Hathaway slightly raised her delicate eyebrows, looked at her girlfriend and asked, "Why haven't you ever mentioned this to me?"

   Beatrice reached into her long fluffy hair and scratched her head, and said with a silly smile, "I thought it was a hallucination?"

   After finishing speaking, she lifted up her nightgown, ran to the bed, dragged out the suitcase under the bed, opened the suitcase, and said, "I have to prepare, let me think about what I need to bring for the trip!"

   "Are you really going to Hailansa City to find him?" Hathaway's eyes widened, and she felt her heart beating very hard.

  Beatrice winked at her best friend and said, "Of course, and it's not just me, it's us... If you don't go, don't regret it in the future!"

  …

  Suldak gently moved away the thighs and arms that were pressing on his body, quietly got up and walked to the terrace.

Breathing the fresh air in the morning, Suldak began to swing the craftsman's sword in his hand, silently recording the numbers in his heart, and later he would swing the shield to do five thousand parry movements, which must be done every day Thanks to the snow, he and Natasha finally had a little private space.

Every morning, he still has to take culture classes in the academy, and in the afternoon, he is more free. Not every afternoon has classes. After the assistant teacher Pablo helped him adjust the schedule, life in the Knight Academy became very easy, and he could occasionally go to The sword hall competes with Darcy Christie in swordsmanship.

Suldak pushed open the door of the sword gym. Miss Jean at the front desk looked up at Suldak, pointed to the practice room inside, and indicated that Darcy Christie was also there. Suldak was in the hall of the sword gym. According to the weight of the weapon on the weapon rack, I selected a slightly heavier wooden sword, and walked into the practice room where Darcy Christie was with the wooden sword.

Darcy Christie is the swordsmanship instructor in the sword hall. Although the swordsmanship course of the Knight Academy is not included in the main subjects, there are still many apprentice knights who are willing to take the time to improve their swordsmanship level. There are three swordsmanship instructors in the sword hall. The daily class schedule is not very tight, and most of the time will be free.

Suldak walked into the practice room with a wooden sword in his hand. Dacie Christie was slashing at the training dummy with all his strength. The wooden sword made crackling sounds like popping beans on the training dummy. After entering, Darcy Christie stopped, and the two of them had almost no communication, and started fighting directly.

Darcy Christie knew that Suldak didn't use his full strength, and his sword style became faster and weirder. In the practice room, he forced Suldak into danger. The big crisis can be dealt with calmly. In the end, Miss Daxi managed to break through Suldak's defense with a sword, and the wooden sword touched Suldak's shoulder.

Miss Daxi wore a linen shirt under her tight leather armor and was almost drenched in sweat. She sat down looking at the wall of the practice room with some exhaustion. At this time, Ms. Jean at the front desk will bring two cups of hot tea in due course, and occasionally two exquisite biscuits.

  Dacy Christie wiped the sweat off her face with a towel, and asked Suldak: "I haven't congratulated you on getting the knight status in advance, have you registered with the Knight Order?"

   "Hmm!" Suldak took a sip of hot tea.

  Miss Daxi had a slightly upward arc hanging from the corner of her mouth, and asked, "Have you figured out where to lead the knight?"

  Suldak said truthfully: "I am going to lead the knight near Wall Village!"

In fact, regarding the choice of the knight leader recently, he was hesitant in his heart between Pustule Mountain and Wall Village, but he recently sold a series of sulfur mines, which made Suldak feel deeply. Farms are easier to accumulate wealth.

   "Aren't you going to share a piece of Baron Grenfell's red pine forest?" Miss Darcy asked.

Karl has always been envious of the red pine forest, but unfortunately the Casement family's status in Hailansa City is not high, so they were not able to get a share of the red pine forest. At that time, Karl was quite regretful and did not want to arrive Miss Qian was also asking Suldak if he wanted to share a piece of red pine forest.

   "No, I don't want to open a logging camp!" Suldak refused very simply.

   "There is also a large piece of land near Hoyle Manor, which is very suitable for building a farm!" Miss Darcy was not surprised, and then recommended another piece of rich land.

Of course, those recommended by Miss Darcy are all under the control of the Christie family. After Miss Hoyle inherited the title, the Hoyle family's third-class earl was downgraded to first-class viscount due to her lack of merit. I am afraid that part of the land will also be ceded, so Miss Hoyle has the priority to transfer the land.

Seeing that Suldak was unmoved, Miss Daxi wanted to recommend the land near the Funak Manor, but seeing that Suldak was not eager, she immediately thought of something, so she asked in surprise: "...you have already Decided?"

   "I grew up in Wall Village, so I am more used to the environment there," Suldak said.

  Miss Daxi had nothing to say about Suldak's stubbornness for a while, and the practice room fell into silence.

In fact, Karl also persuaded Suldak about the same thing, but Karl did not have such good land resources, so he just suggested that he choose an oak forest, at least in autumn, he could sell a batch of acorns, but Suldak resolutely refused up.
