The withdrawal of the cavalry gave Klose a respite and recuperation.

The uninjured soldiers took the hemostats and bandages from Klose's hands and helped their companions bandage their wounds.

And the results obtained after Kraze's name made Klose's face a dark cloud.

In this battle, which is not big or small in the Ryan Continent, Klose's side lost a total of three escort soldiers and fifteen wounded, two of whom were seriously injured, including the soldier with a broken arm who Klose personally treated.

The casualties of the other side are unknown, but it can be guessed that they must be much more serious than their side.

Because just what Klose saw, at least four people were pierced into a sieve by spears....

Klose watched the other soldiers digging graves for the fallen soldiers, and felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

Because just the other day, he had drunk with all the soldiers in the team.

In Klose's heart, the one who has drunk is his friend!

And now, these friends have been turned into corpses before they reach the fiefdom....

The dwarf Hu Boru walked up to Klose and pouted slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry my friend, I didn't help much in this fight. But... As the underdog, you guys are really good enough. ”

Klose subconsciously shook his head, and in his mind, he still replayed the moment when the soldiers were killed.

"Hey dear..."

Suddenly, a pair of gentle arms embraced Klose into a piece of softness.

Klose breathed in the faint smell of flowers and herbs in his nose, and his mind gradually calmed down.

"It shouldn't be... They shouldn't just die..."

Klose buried his face in the elf's chest, and suddenly tears broke down.

"My dear... You've done well enough..."

Night Breeze grabbed Klose's head, his right hand caressing the latter's short soft brown hair, and spoke softly.

Gradually, Klose, in the elf's arms, calmed down.

He slowly raised his head, looked at Night Wind and said with some apologies: "I'm sorry dear, I soiled your clothes." ”

The night breeze was slightly stunned, because he saw a bright light in the eyes of the young man in front of him!

It was a light of determination and courage, usually only occasionally visible in the eyes of the most devout paladins!

First the king is domineering, and then there is a bright light!

This young man in front of him.... If you polish and exercise a little, your future achievements are limitless!

His whole life .... It is not destined to be ordinary.

-------------------------------------

It was early summer in the Ryan Continent at the moment, and although the sun at noon was indeed a little difficult, it was still very cool in the morning and evening.

Klose's squad chose to rest at noon and rush in the morning and afternoon.

After passing through a river, a mountain, and a swamp, we are finally about to come to the legendary out-of-print fiefdom --- "Eagle Stream Canyon".

Klose found that the closer he got to his fiefdom, the fewer people or animals he could encounter.

Until this moment, after they stepped into the Eagle Stream Canyon, it seemed that there were no more creatures around.

Klose was still lying on Meloyd's back, his head resting on the lap of the Dark Elf Nightwind, and the little maid Lisa was still pounding his legs.

Judging from the demeanor of the young master, it seems that he has come out of the shadow of the battle a few days ago.

"Uh... Is it finally my fiefdom? That's too far, right? I think it's necessary to build a highway. ”

Klose stretched, slipped off the spider's back, and looked at the vast forest not far away, and his heart fluttered.

That's right, this forest is the entrance to the abyss of the Demon Forest, which is where the Eagle Stream Canyon is located.

In fact, if it weren't for being too close to the Demon Forest Abyss, and it was a buffer zone for the crossfire of several countries, the shape and area of this fiefdom could really be called good.

First of all, Eagle Stream Canyon is backed by the Solo Sea and is surrounded by hills and jungles on three sides, with only a flat plain in the center.

This kind of fiefdom shape that is easy to defend and difficult to attack should be the favorite and "house type" of "big families" like Klose.

In addition, under the abyss in the forest, there are abundant deposits of various minerals.

According to Meloyd, there seems to be a sizable Mithril vein down there.

That's a high-end deposit that crafts high-quality armor and supports enchantments.

If this vein appears elsewhere on the mainland, it is not impossible to cause war between the two countries.

It's just that this demon forest is desolate.... But it was the first problem that Klose needed to face, and that was the harassment of Warcraft.

The dwarves were slow and had not been able to catch up with the large forces until now.

There are only a dozen people who can be used by Klose now, which is simply not enough to see.

"My captain... My fiefdom... Don't even have a place to live? ”

Klose looked around, and finally turned his attention to Krett for help.

"Young Master, Eagle Stream Canyon is here... There should be a castle and a village, let's look for it. ”

"Should? My captain, how long has it been since you've been here? ”

Crett groaned, "It's been more than ten years. ”

“....”

The group followed Captain Kret's original memories and walked around the forest, and they really found a small village.

"Are there really people living here? What do they live on?! ”

Klose looked at the small village of only a few dozen families not far away, wondering how they had survived in the monster-infested Demon Forest.

"Young master, wait a minute, I'll go find someone to ask."

Captain Krett grabbed his horse's belly and ran first to the small village.

"My dear, this village... It seems to be blessed by some kind of formation. ”

"Oh?"

Klose couldn't help but wonder when he heard the words of the night wind, could it be that there were masters in such a small village?

After waiting for a long time, Klose saw that the captain of his guard was leading two men out of the village.

One is a white-bearded old man in a white robe who has been washed to the point of old hair.

The other was a young man with black hair wearing simple protective gear.

The two of them were very excited when they saw Klose's expression, and the white-bearded old man actually knelt directly on one knee and raised his hands reverently.

"Oh my Highness! Welcome to Eagle Horn Village, our whole village is looking forward to it day and night, just waiting for someone to rule us! It seems that the Empire has not forgotten us! Thank the gods! ”

Klose was afraid that Meloyd would scare the villagers, so he switched to ponies as he approached the village, leaving Meloyd at the edge of the forest.

"Old man, please get up! Haven't I come, and the Empire will not forget its people. ”

Stepping forward to help the white-bearded old man, Klose couldn't help but add in his heart: "If it's not a last resort, I'm afraid no one wants to take over this fiefdom?" ”

The white-bearded old man held Klose's hand tightly with both hands, his eyes were full of tears, and he said excitedly: "Your Highness, my name is Carnegie Quincy, and I am the head of this village and the head of the eastern outpost of the empire!" I've been here for thirty years... Finally waiting for you, Your Highness! ”

"Don't worry, Village Chief Quincy, we won't let the villagers suffer anymore when we come!"

Klose couldn't help but comfort the old man, but in his heart he respected the old man.

Thirty years in such a dangerous place where birds don't poop? How much courage and perseverance does it take?

The old man calmed down his excitement for a while, and then he pulled the young man next to him and introduced to Klose: "Your Highness, this is my grandson, Parker Quincy, he is now in charge of the security chief, and he also leads the young people in the village to monitor the border movements of other countries. ”

Klose was stunned for a moment, then looked at the young man about his own age.

Although this young man looks ordinary, he stands there with a straight back, and his eyes are free of impurities, and he looks like a good seedling at first glance.

"Yes! The lad is very energetic! It seems that the village chief of Quincy has taught well! ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the village chief of Quincy finally remembered that he couldn't let his Royal Highness the prince stand outside the entrance of the village all the time.

"Your Highness, there is a castle at the back of the village, which has not been inhabited for many years, and I will take you there."

Klose thanked him and led the men behind Quincy to his own castle.

As they passed through the village of Eagle Point, Klose saw many children running around curiously.

Perhaps they had never seen a prince before, and the children did not know the awe they needed to show when facing royalty.

Klose didn't care, he took candy out of the supermarket and threw it to the curious children.

The women were horrified to bring back their children, and some did not forget to slap them twice on the buttocks.

It seems that these children will be urgently educated by the adults in the family when they go back today.

As Klose and his party made their way through the village to the castle, raindrops began to fall in the sky.

"Oh? It's raining? This must be the good fortune that His Highness has brought us! It's been almost 100 days since we've had rain here! ”

Village Chief Quincy looked at Tian with a look of surprise, and his steps under his feet were much lighter.

"Your Highness, this is your castle! Eagle Castle! ”

Chief Quincy pointed to a castle in front of him and proudly introduced it to Klose.

But Klose wanted to scold his mother....

This is my castle?! What's going on with all four sides of the wind? What's going on with this leaky ceiling? And what's going on with these rats and babbling??

Yes, the castle is like a candle in a storm, and it seems that it is in danger of collapsing at any moment...

Quincy saw that his Highness's face was not very good, and hurriedly explained: "Your Highness doesn't know, this castle has been standing here for I don't know how many years before we came. Although it looks a little dilapidated, the main body of the castle is still very strong, and when the rain stops, I will call someone to rest for His Highness! ”

"Oh? Or is it an ancient castle? ”

Hearing that this castle has a long history, the unhappiness in Klose's heart was immediately swept away.

He walked over to the wall and reached out to touch the rough wall, wanting to feel the breath of history.

But the moment Klose touched the walls of the castle, something magical happened!
