Chapter 67: Chapter 65 New Level/New Skills_3
The soldier looked at the child beside his wife and laughed, cursing playfully. freēnovelkiss.com
"Your orders, Captain!" The child stood straight and saluted his father.
"Haha." The soldier couldn’t help but laugh, roughly ruffling his son’s hair.
Three Full Armor Knights passed by on horseback, smiling at the scene.
Kecha inexplicably sighed, "Alas, I wonder how many warriors will have to sacrifice here again."
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy.
Rein didn’t know how to respond, so he could only ask, "The frontline has already started to retreat, and most of the residents of the Count’s domain have fled early.
Only the residents of Riverbend Town are left; when can they be sent to a safe place?"
As Rein said this, he actually knew in his heart that they always needed some logistical personnel.
They also needed enough civilians to assist them in combat.
Especially Riverbend Town, which is a military stronghold, with soldiers in every household, even Knights.
Even some farmers have considerable experience and knowledge.
Aside from Lake City in the Count’s domain, this town is the Count’s most valued place.
The residents here are also most loyal to the Count.
This country—Safro, has been established for only about 100 years, a small country indeed.
The earliest residents of the entire country have only been here for two or three generations at most.
Moreover, most of the residents are later immigrants and refugees because of the scarce magic power making it safer here.
You simply can’t expect these civilians to have any patriotic feelings; they haven’t even formed any beneficial unified culture.
After the blood race chaos erupted, all the residents began to migrate without hesitation. They came here for safety in the first place, so naturally, they would leave when it was no longer safe.
Besides, the outbreak of blood race chaos made the whole country completely lose its governing ability.
It was a collective rebellion of the upper-middle levels of the entire country, undergoing inhumane transformations.
And the people of Riverbend Town in the Count’s domain are not loyal to the country but to the Count.
Also, they might be the only human group with combat power in this country.
Blake, riding on horseback, listened to the conversation of the two behind him.
"It should be soon; to the Count, the residents here are also very important.
In a few days, these residents will likely be sent to the downstream camps first.
There should be many residents already preparing."
Recalling the conversation with Jonel when he arrived at the town last night.
"Is that so, that’s good." Kecha couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
"Speaking of which, I don’t know how His Highness’s raft construction is going."
"I don’t know; it’s only been about 10 days since their operation began," Blake said with a slight hint of worry.
They were currently heading to the downstream camp to inform Kana of the current information.
They also hoped Kana could provide some advice for the subsequent actions.
After all, what Kana had worried about and foresaw had all become realities.
Blake thought like this and couldn’t help but recall what he had heard before, the words Kana had told them.
That almost prophetic ability.
Riding on horseback, as they approached noon, they finally reached the camp.
From afar, they heard the bold voice coming from among the warhorses.
"Haha! See that? A big tree like this, I only need three chops to fell it.
Understand? We’re still stronger; you’re just a bit taller!"
Following the voice, the three approached the camp’s edge.
They saw many workers by the woods, felling the trees.
And the voice seemed to come from among them.
At this time, a soldier atop the watchtower noticed Blake’s group.
Soon, two soldiers and a dwarf approached them.
"What’s up with that short old man?" Rein exclaimed, looking at the dwarf behind the two soldiers.
The dwarf was only slightly taller than half a human’s height, with a big beard and a thick-set appearance, giving the feeling of a dwarf-like old man with dwarfism.
Hearing Rein’s words, the two soldiers immediately changed their expressions to one of worry.
Sure enough, hearing Rein’s words, the dwarf rushed to Rein’s warhorse, jumping and cursing.
"Damn, damn humans! I’ve had enough of you. If it weren’t for Yata bringing us to protect this camp, I’d be jumping up furiously and smashing your knees now!
Damn long-legged people! How can the people of your country be so ignorant?
Enough, get off your horse! I want to practice with you to see what kind of knights you are.
Let me see how powerful you are, being so tall. Come on! Get off your horse!"
The furious dwarf was quickly dragged and pacified by the two soldiers.
They already knew how to deal with these straightforward dwarves.
But Rein was completely confused, his eyes revealing bewilderment.
Blake looked at the short, thick-set body, seeming to remember something, recalling some stories and images he had seen in books before.
He couldn’t help exclaiming, blurting out, "Are you the legendary dwarves?"
"Legendary? Damn, we live on Gray Mountain; we’re your neighbors!"
This dwarf rarely came to this side, but he often communicated with some people of the Cohen Kingdom, and he had never encountered this situation.
The people here looked at dwarves as if seeing legendary beings, really had enough.
Too ignorant.
After a long explanation by the two soldiers, Blake’s group finally understood the current situation.
Kecha couldn’t help but say, "As expected of His Highness."
First, there were the ratmen, then the dwarves.
"When will His Highness return? We have some urgent intelligence to notify him." Blake said beside him.
The two soldiers could only shake their heads helplessly; they couldn’t guarantee anything either.
Everyone looked at the dwarf.
The dwarf faced their gaze, though somewhat angry, only shook his head.
"I don’t know either; your Highness and Yata are dealing with some dwarf issues.
Don’t worry, we will protect the camp during this time."
