Gawain was a little surprised at the moment, but since he had discovered some clues before, he didn't have too many surprises.
He just looked at the blond elf male in the distance who was wary of him, and some memories related to him emerged in his mind - they came from Gawain· Cecil's memory, he clearly knew the origin of this elf, and also knew how this elf accepted human employment as a freedom fighter, and once became Gawain Cecil's subordinate in the mixed army. , although these memories are not his own, after nearly a year of integration and adaptation, he has been able to skillfully place himself in it when extracting Gawain Cecil's memories.
Even the relatives and friends of Gawain Cecil would not see the sense of disobedience in his reaction, let alone the elf named Solderin.
But even so, Solderin still had no intention of putting down his weapon. He clenched the short bow in his hand, and his eyes quickly swept over the surrounding Cecil combat soldiers. He could feel It seemed that these people were just ordinary people without much magic power in their bodies. However, the equipment on these people had strange, automatic magic reactions. He had never seen this type of soldiers, whether they were human or elves. There is no corresponding branch in the army, but he guessed that the missing unit was wiped out by these soldiers.
The reaction of the elf ranger was as expected by Gawain, who laughed: "Although it is embarrassing to meet again in this situation, I am still very happy to see what happened seven hundred years ago. An acquaintance appeared in front of him - Solderin, take your people and put down their weapons, there is no need for us to make things end badly." Solderin frowned, he knew Gao. With Vin Cecil's strength, if the one on the opposite side is really genuine, then even without those strange soldiers around, the team he leads would not be able to leave here. However, there is also a knowledge of surrender. He was silent for a moment, Weiwei relaxed the bowstring in his hand to an extent that was almost imperceptible to the naked eye: "Will you let these soldiers go?"
"They are Typhon soldiers. I know the changes of this era, so there is no way I can Let them go," Gawain noticed the changes in Solderin's bowstring, and said calmly, "Under normal circumstances, I would get rid of them all without leaving any hidden dangers, but since you are here, as long as you If you are willing to cooperate, I can guarantee that they will live."
Gawain could be sure that after he finished speaking, the muscles of the Typhon soldiers who clenched their weapons relaxed to varying degrees - no one wanted to die. The same is true even for these soldiers who are extremely loyal to the Typhon Empire. They are not stupid. They naturally know that there is no point in rebelling under such circumstances. Use Solderin's favor to give them a step to surrender. It's a perfect fit - and a step up for Söderling.
The elf ranger exhaled, although he knew that if it was Gawain Cecil in his memory,, the other party could understand what he meant, but he didn't really relax until then. But before putting away his weapon, he couldn't help but question one last time: "I still can't believe you are real - you How to prove that you are the real Gawain Cecil?"
Before Gawain could speak, Hetty, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but asked, "How can you question the identity of your ancestor again and again? !"
Gawain raised his hand to let Hetty calm down, and then looked at Solderin with a half-smile: "Are you sure you want me to identify myself?"
Solderin looked at Gawain quietly, his expression unchanged.
"Okay, this is what you mean," Gawain spread his hands, "I know the real reason why you 'never exert your power to more than 70%', and I also know that this reason is to let you The original reason for leaving the Silver Empire and traveling around the continent was that you once went to see the great wizard Baldiga for this reason, and the area that the great wizard was good at was..."
"Okay you. Needless to say," Solderin released his bowstring and waved his hand to order the soldiers behind him to disarm, "I believe you are the real Gawain Cecil - I am willing to do whatever you want, and I also believe you will keep your promise, Ensure the safety of these soldiers I brought."
The Typhon soldiers disarmed one by one. This feeling of surrendering without fighting really made these elites extremely angry, especially. The three knights were even more angry, but their reason forced them to accept this fact - this was the best result.
The resurrected Gawain Cecil turned out to be real, and he was standing a hundred meters away from them. In this situation, they were even grateful that their commander was They were old acquaintances of the enemy, which at least saved their lives.
On the opposite side, Gawain couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief - after knowing the existence of Solderin, he hoped to solve the problem without bloodshed. He knew the strength of this elf ranger, a high-level As a level ranger, even if his own talent cannot break through to legend, his combat power is quite terrifying. Gawain's current strength may still be able to deal with Solderin, but he may not have enough power to protect others in battle. Once If the Cecil Combat Corps fights this elite Typhon, damage will be inevitable.
The unavoidable casualties on the battlefield are one thing, but the avoidable casualties are another.
The prisoners had their weapons confiscated and their hands tied one by one. Extraordinary beings such as mages and knights also added an extra layer of ropes made of magic threads just in case, but Solderin avoided it. In order to receive this kind of treatment - ordinary ropes and shackles cannot control a high-level ranger anyway. It is safer to have Gawain in the team to hold the battle in person than any other means.
Before being taken away, Solderin took one last curious look at the still busy open-air excavation site. In the end, he still failed to understand what was being excavated in this place.
On the way back to Cecil Territory, Amber (stroked the whole way)Solderin had been looking at Solderin curiously. This reckless-looking half-elf made the high-level ranger uncomfortable. Solderin couldn't help but frown: "Is there any problem?"
Amber carefully glanced at Gawain and Hetty not far away, then lowered her voice and muttered to Solderin: "I'm just curious, are you a friend of Old Zongzi back then?"
Solderin was stunned by this incomprehensible coinage: "What does old rice dumpling mean?"
"It's Gawain," Amber said carelessly, "He told me, The ghoul dug out from the coffin is Lao Zongzi - but he clearly taught me this, but he still won't let me say that about him..."
Before Amber finished speaking, he felt his head Someone knocked on the bed quickly, and Gawain's voice came from the side: "Do you think I can't hear you if you lower your voice?"
"Old Zongzi, how come you don't make any sound when you walk... oh mom It hurts!”
Solderin stared at Gawain beating Amber on the head, and suddenly felt like he was seeing the Gawain Cecil he had just met in the wasteland of Gondor— -At that time, Gawain Cecil was also careless and without grace. He could quickly get along with anyone in the team-whether they were humans or alien mercenaries. Although Gao Wen at that time was Wen doesn't have the habit of knocking other people's heads, but this free and easy look does resemble him.
Only in the second half of my memory, after Ansu established the country and Gawain Cecil became the Duke of the South, this freedom and ease gradually disappeared. Heavy responsibilities and some kind of pressure made this person in the North The legendary knight who rose on the road became more and more serious and unsmiling. In Solderin's last few memories of Gawain Cecil, he could not remember him looking so relaxed and cheerful.
After lying in a coffin for seven hundred years, my mentality returned to twenty-five? Or has he experienced life and death and seen through something?
Solderling believes it is the latter.
A person who has become a legend, created great achievements, and experienced a cycle of life and death does not need to pretend to be serious.
His guess accidentally hit the truth. Gawain’s free and easy mentality did come from the life and death and incredible experiences he experienced, but the years he experienced far exceeded The imagination of the elf ranger...
After returning to the territory, Gawain handed all the prisoners directly to the knight Philip who was waiting in the military camp. He decided to temporarily imprison these people, beat them and send them away. Go to the mines for mining or send them to the North Bank construction site for infrastructure construction - after next spring, you can also let them go to the North Bank to open up wasteland. Anyway, there is work everywhere in the territory now, and the territory has developed to this day, and I am not afraid of what these people will cause. Trouble comes.
The mercenary mage caught before was sent to the Machinery Manufacturing Institute after being "educated" to work as an assistant to Nicholas Dan - Mr. Dan's Forbidden Demon Realm vs. Intermediate Level The following mages are simply invincible. That mercenary mage is very honest now., and also received the excellent production bonus for the first month.
As for Solderin, he was taken directly to the Lord's Mansion by Gawain.
To get information, we still have to start with this "old acquaintance."
Solderin walked into Gawain's "castle". The moment he entered the hall, a warm breath hit his face. The cold wind in the cold winter outside was completely isolated. This "castle" that didn't look very tall and grand was so warm inside that even Solderin felt incredible.
The environment here made him feel very comfortable.
Silver elves are a species that live in the tropical areas of the southern part of the continent. Although the entire Silver Empire will not fall into the scorching heat due to the influence of high mountains and magic whirlpools, they are still generally more adapted to warm living environments. Although Solderin has been traveling in the north of the continent for many years and has adapted to the relatively cold climate here, he would still be happy if there was a warmer environment.
What surprised him was that he did not see a heating device such as a fireplace in the hall.
"Here is heated with a 'warm duct'," Gawain noticed Solderin looking for a fireplace in the hall and explained casually, "a heating method I invented. In the house There is a copper heater deep in the mansion, and the fire runes heat it, and then the heat is sent to each room through the heat pipes and brick channels around the heater. The walls here are interlayered, and the roof is also insulated. "It's much more comfortable to live in than a cold castle. Recently, I'm planning to improve this thing so that it can heat the entire neighborhood." Solderin listened carefully and looked at it in surprise. Gawain: "When did you understand these things?"
"I have some special experiences." Gawain smiled slightly and led Solderin towards the study. "Seven hundred years No, I think we have a lot to talk about."
Solderin followed with a smile: "That's true."
After arranging Amber to guard the door, he went into the study. Only Gawain and Solderin were left. It could be seen that the Elf Ranger, who seemed indifferent and distant, felt a little relaxed when there were no other people around.
Gawain sat down behind the desk and motioned to Solderin to find a seat next to him. Then he looked at this "friend from seven hundred years ago" curiously: "How did you get here?" Typhon?"
"Just traveling around," Solderin replied casually, "I am just a free ranger, and I will naturally find a new employer after my employment period in one country expires."
This is obviously not the whole reason, but Gawain did not look into it in detail, but smiled: "Speaking of which, seeing that you are still traveling, hasn't that problem been solved yet?"
"I almost gave up," Solderin sighed helplessly, "Just thinking about it, even the potion prepared by Master Baldiga doesn't work, and probably no one in this world can help me. ”
“Actually, you’re doing quite well.Yes, no one can see your true strength - you also have a very majestic-sounding name, 'Blonde Solderin', which sounds like you are taking the path of a public lover..."
Solderin glanced at Gawain: "Would you like it instead? "
Gawain suddenly touched his hairline subconsciously: "Forget it, my hairline has finally stabilized recently..."
Solderin With a sigh, I suddenly felt that meeting an old friend again after seven hundred years was not a very pleasant thing.
"It's very hot in my house, why don't you take off your wig?" "
"No! ”
