Vol 2 Chapter 42

On a sunny day, there was a sudden burst of lightning and thunder, and the commotion was so loud that half the city’s people were blindsided. It came and ended quickly, and it flashed for less than half a second. It was hard to see how lethal it was, and it only knocked down an unlucky bird that flew over Tibes. The adjutant who had been sitting crookedly against the city wall just now stood up suddenly, suspicious of a lightning-type supernatural being in the team hunting illegally.

There are many supernatural beings gathered in the Tibes line of defense, so there is naturally a set of strict rules to prevent fighters with supernatural powers from fighting or accidentally injuring friendly troops when they are not fighting. Not good, a group of naked soldiers who were dragged into the river while taking a bath next to him chased and beat him half the city. David put up the canopy with his hands, squinted his eyes and calculated the distance from the bird struck by lightning to the garrison position, and clicked his tongue at the ridiculously large number. He wondered, when did such a strong man exist in the army? Could it be that he just had a breakthrough and couldn’t help showing off?

The ascetic monk suddenly raised his head and quickly climbed up the watchtower. The adjutant, who had been paying half his attention to her, hurried over and hugged her waist.

“What’s the matter, Miss Ascetic?” He tried his best to squeeze the girl down, his mouth kept moving, “Don’t worry! How long have they been up here? Your Excellency, the Favored One, has never climbed such a tall building. There is nothing you can do if you watch carefully for a long time. You are not going to spoil her fun by climbing up at this time. Not to mention that there are only two sentries in general, and the load-bearing limit of the watchtower is designed according to two people. Once you go up, what if the watchtower collapses? Do? I have heard that ascetic monks are used to meditating in deep mountains and old forests, such as on the top of a high mountain or under a waterfall… If Your Excellency, the God-Fated One, inherits this fine tradition and is inspired by the Lord on the observation deck and starts to meditate, you suddenly go up, It’s a small thing to scare her out, but it’s a big deal to displease God! You should let go…”

When the ascetic lady was grabbed by the waist, she hugged the iron railing that was climbing up, and her whole body was rigidly locked. The adjutant’s mouth was worn out but he didn’t respond. He pulled but didn’t dare to force it. He let her go a little bit and the other party climbed up again. He could only freeze there with her, feeling like he was pulling a cat up a chimney, and there was nothing he could do.

After a while, the strength in his hand suddenly loosened, and David hurriedly lifted the opponent down. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the chimney, ah no, two more people climbed out of the watchtower. There are still those two people, but one of them goes up vertically and comes out horizontally. The general held the favored man with his eyes closed tightly, with complicated emotions on his face.

“My lord general?” David asked cautiously, asking what happened with his eyes. He was quite uneasy, worried that his adults would commit crimes in the daytime if they didn’t make sense. The general was about to explain with an embarrassing face, when he cast his sharp eyes on the ascetic.

The petite ascetic stared at her fixedly, and his standing posture changed subtly. After noticing the general’s gaze, she stopped her movements, but at that moment just now, what emanated from her was indeed a killing intent.

Jane sneered, like a provoked lion. She raised her hand subconsciously, and the favored man on her arm rolled down, extinguishing most of her fighting spirit. The general looked at the same adjutant who was suspicious, and argued, “She passed out by herself!”

Time back to a few minutes ago.

“At least let that ascetic monk get out!” Jane tried her best to dissuade, “Don’t be fooled by that appearance! She was sent to ‘follow’ you, it will definitely not be as simple as it seems!”

“I’m not simple either!” the petite and cute humanoid Pikachu protested.

The general wiped his face and reprimanded An Xu with the eyes of a mischievous child, but An Xu didn’t accept this at all. Jane’s expression became serious, and she said, “Let’s be honest, I’m happy to let you gain experience in the border army, but I will never send the spies of the Holy See to the barracks. If you insist on letting that ascetic monk follow you, I won’t let you act together.”

“Then let’s act separately.” An Xu said bluntly.

Jane was stunned, completely unexpected that there would be such a result after a conversation.

The look of being splashed with cold water made An Xu feel a little sorry, and explained in a rare way: “I don’t hate you, and I don’t mean to offend. But, are there any healers in the border army?”

“There is one.” Jane replied, “Most of the healers are in monasteries and noble homes. My father managed to recruit someone willing to live on the border…”

“One for the whole line of defense, so it’s impossible to follow me closely, is it?”

Jane showed a embarrassed expression, struggled a bit, and finally shook her head. “The wounded soldiers in the entire defense line rely on that one healer,” she said with a frown. “Sorry, it’s impossible to let him follow you all day. But if you can leave the defense line before winter, go to Urburg Get married and have him help you most of the time before you leave.”

“What I want is not ‘most of the time’.” An Xu spread his hands, “I want all the time, and the frontier army can’t help me, so I can only rely on Lydia, at least I know her well.”

Familiar with it for a few days, she added in her heart. And the current bound milk is quite cute, I will cry if the monastery replaces me with an old man and an old lady.

“You…you haven’t experienced even one beast horde on the defense line!” Jane waved her hands and said angrily, trying to break her whims, “You can come next year! How could you face the big beast horde at the beginning?”

“I’m strong.” An Xu replied.

“You may be very strong, but when your personal strength is in the tide of beasts, it’s like a wave in the waves.” Jane looked helplessly at the noble lady who was trapped at home and in the seminary, and pointed to a slow-moving animal behind her. The bird that flew to them said, “Look at that wood sparrow, the most common and most numerous bird in Tibes, a farmer can shoot it down when it gets close. Tens of thousands of strange beasts, the wind sparrows are almost invisible to the naked eye when they are flying at full strength. One second they were in that position, and the next second they are next to your neck! Can you kill them all by yourself at such a distance? ?”

“Are all the fast beasts called Haifeng so-and-so?” An Xu said, “It sounds very cool, but it turns out to be a bad street.”

Jane really wanted to pry the opponent’s head open to see what the **** was inside.

An Xu didn’t mind Jane’s expression of going crazy, she turned around, pointed to the same thing as Jane and asked, “Is there no one in the Tibes defense line who can kill birds at this distance?”

“It’s not impossible, but there are very few people who can do it.” Jane said, “What’s more, they come in a group…”

An Xu maintained the posture of pointing one finger into the distance, raised his thumb, and closed his eyes. That posture is a bit like a child imagining that she is holding a bow and arrow, and the imaginary arrow is aimed at the prey. She raises her finger upwards, as if shooting something, and voices herself: “Whew!”

Crash!

The bird that was slowly flying from the forest to Tibes was gone, the general subconsciously covered his eyes, and there was still a flash of light on his retina. One step earlier than the sound arrived, all the windows exploded blank, and the blue sky, white clouds, green forests and black soil were swallowed up in an instant—it was just an illusion. Jane opened her eyes and kept blinking. The world was no different from the last second, except that there was a small black spot on the white ground between the city wall and the forest.

The cinder-like wreckage no longer looks like what it used to be.

“So, I’m very strong.” The divinely favored person said slowly, “I can expand the range of the thunder just now many times, at least it can be used… Oh, I haven’t tried it, and I don’t know how much it can be used. time.”

Jane swallowed, staring at the perpetrator beside her. She suddenly understood that she had to win over Anna. Sullivan’s reasons may not be limited to the family power she can inherit. Does Eve know this? Jane couldn’t help but feel that even Eve, who knew everything in her heart, would not accurately predict the power of the God’s Favored One.

Sixteen years old is far from the peak of supernatural powers. How far will a person with such power at this age grow in the future?

“I’m very strong, and it’s just a burden to bring a large army.” The god-favored man murmured, the content of the words annoyed the general, but he couldn’t completely refute, “I just need to take Lydia, don’t stop me from doing this alone.” Book…”

Jane didn’t understand the last half of the sentence, but her attention soon stopped on what the other party said. The favored person spoke softer and softer, she leaned against the wall of the watchtower and slid down little by little. She managed to open her eyes and said, “I feel like I’m going to faint.”

Then she simply fell down.

If it weren’t for the general’s quick eyesight and quick hands, the favored man might have fallen headlong into the passageway up, fell all the way to the bottom, and died together with the ascetic monk who was blocking the opening, and this story would have died prematurely. Jane grabbed the fallen girl and was dumbfounded, witnessing with her own eyes how delicate a frail and sickly girl in legends can be.

In the end, isn’t this an excuse for the conspiracy of the Holy See?

Jane hugged the favored one sadly, and after thinking about it, she sent her back to the room herself. The ascetic who followed behind said nothing, looking at her vigilantly, which made her panic. simple. Stuart has been upright all his life. She has grown up so much, no one has ever looked at her with the eyes that judge her to be a bad person, let alone someone from the Holy See! She was seen as wanting to grab her sleeves and hit someone, thinking of Miss Sullivan who was still lying there – let’s compare her heart, Jane’s younger sister was also very delicate when she was a child, if someone provoked her to exhaust her energy and become ill, Jane would not care about the other party’s intentions Unintentionally, she had to beat him until her parents couldn’t recognize her—so she swallowed her breath, snorted coldly, and strode away.

David stayed behind and explained to the ascetics how to find them in case of need, and how they were welcome to ask for help. Jane has already walked into her room angrily, had a few drinks to calm down, and wrote a letter to Eve. Eve couldn’t get away for the time being, and repeatedly asked to contact her at any time, telling her immediately if anything happened. So last night’s letter had just been mailed, and Jane already felt the need to send another one.

She wrote what happened today, in the usual style, from the cheese cake she ate in the morning to the deliciousness of the gods (“I really miss the cook at home, but the border meat is very delicious. Come and taste it when you have time!”), what he said when he went up to the city wall, and how he wittily went up to the watchtower alone with the god-favored man (“Successfully blocked the ascetic monk, I don’t know what that guy was thinking, People in the Holy See are not good people.”), and finally wrote what happened on the watchtower.

After writing this, the general, who was flying like a pen, got stuck. She bit her quill, thinking about how to alleviate Eve’s anger. After all, not long ago, Jane just patted her chest and promised to complete the task. “I didn’t do unnecessary things at all,” she wrote dawdly, “I mentioned it as you said, Anna. After hearing it, Sullivan also said that he didn’t like the Holy See and liked our side, but she might A bit of a deadhead, refusing to let the ascetic leave, to spend the winter on the defensive line.”

“She doesn’t want to go back and marry you! This silly girl is really ignorant. It’s all because she hasn’t seen you. Any alpha will like you when she sees you!” After being filled with righteous indignation, Jane felt the need to speak well for Miss Sullivan. After all, she is not annoying, and she can be regarded as a fair choice for sister-in-law, “But there is no way, if someone is sent to a place full of people from the Holy See, think about it, it will definitely become useless.” Knowledgeable wooden head, I heard that they locked up Omega! Besides, she is really not in good health, she is very powerful, but she collapses after using her powers. Can we get a healer? Maybe there is a healer She can turn around.”

Jane babbled and wrote a passage, convinced herself, and became calm. “I hope you are in good health this year. When the weather is cold, wear more clothes. Don’t catch a cold. Don’t worry about me. I will give you 10,000 kisses. Kiss my old dad too, and I hope he didn’t die drunk in the room. ’ she concluded, as usual, ‘Love your sister, Jane.’

The general was full of tenderness in his heart, he hummed a song and sealed the letter, unaware that he had written the information transmission letter into a sticky letter home.
