Chapter 25: Sleepy

As night fell, bonfires lit up in the bend of the rushing river.

After a fierce battle, mankind finally won the final victory.

This is a tragic victory.

The original team of more than 1,000 people suffered most of the casualties, and everyone who survived was injured.

However, after this battle.

The momentum of this group of miscellaneous soldiers has undergone a qualitative change, as if after the blood baptism, there are signs of a transition to the regular army.

There is a strong smell of blood in the camp, and various mutilated bodies have not had time to clean up.

But the rest of the people who lived after the disaster did not care, while enjoying the rare hot food, they brag about their heroic performance during the day.

Saer did not participate in the lively conversation of his companions, but picked up a bunch of grilled herring and walked towards the tent in the middle of the camp.

His left foot seemed to be injured, and it was very difficult to walk with a limping.

However, such a small injury is no longer a problem in this camp.

A knight with a bandage on his upper body was guarding outside the tent.

Thar knew that this was a knight of the Anglia family, and it seemed to be called Raymond.

The knight is holding a long sword, with his head half-down, his eyes closed, as if repenting and praying.

Saar passed by him, and he did not respond, like a sculpture.

"Ms. Vera, would you like something to eat?"

"no need."

Vera didn't turn her head, but she refused softly.

Saar raised his head quietly, but only saw Vera's back and her long white hair.

"You have to take care of your body, you have to eat something..."

Thrall was still persuading, but Vera still didn't respond, just staring blankly at the man in front of him who seemed to fall asleep.

That man is naturally Colin.

However, Colin is not pretending to be dead to gain sympathy right now.

but he really fell asleep.

After all, the previous injury was too serious, and he lost too much blood. Of course, maybe it was stimulated by the last scene of unsuitable children...

In short, Colin fell completely into a deep sleep.

If it weren't for him to breathe, I'm afraid everyone would think he was dead.

Such a terrible injury, no one thinks that Colin can survive.

In fact, in the eyes of everyone, it is a miracle that he can persist until now.

Only Vera was unwilling to give up, she still helped Colin bandage the wound, and took care of her every step of the way.

It seemed that Colin's lips were a little chapped, Vera quickly dipped some water with a scarf and gently wiped it on Colin's mouth.

Seeing this scene, Thrall was full of jealousy, and he even wished that Vera was taking care of him in bed now.

"Miss Vera, let me take care of Knight Colin, you go take a rest."

"No need." Vera rejected Thrall's kindness again, and waved at the same time to signal the mercenary to leave.

Saar had to bury his disappointment deeply in his heart and withdrew from the tent.

"Meow~"

Xiaobai didn't know where he got out from, leaned close to Colin, and gently licked his cheek, as if he wanted to wake up his "human slave".

Vera put down her scarf and stared at Colin's bloodless face for a long time.

After that, she folded her hands and shook her chest together, actually making a prayer posture.

"The omnipotent shining lord, please have mercy on this brave and fearless knight!"

This is Vera's first prayer in her life.

Perhaps, this is also the first mage to pray to the Lord of Radiance.

"If I can be fortunate to witness your grace and kindness, then, throughout my life, I will always serve you!"

This female mage who takes arcane truth as her lifelong pursuit, is now willing to offer her faith to the gods for a man!

I don’t know if the Lord of Radiance has heard the prayer of this mage?

Are you willing to accept such a heresy conversion?

There is no beam of light falling from the sky.

There is no angel that suddenly appeared either.

Colin didn't wake up miraculously.

As if nothing happened...

Only the Bliss Knight who had just walked outside the tent suddenly stopped. He seemed to realize that he might have heard something that shouldn't be heard.

After a long time, when there was no more sound from the tent, Bliss took another step and walked in.

This knight is also a severely wounded man now.

His entire right arm was severed, his body was covered with bandages, and blood was still oozing on it.

However, he still has that calm and indifferent expression, as if he doesn't care about his injury.

"Miss, the casualty statistics have been preliminary completed. In this battle, we lost 428 soldiers and more than 350 people were seriously injured. The rest were basically minor injuries..."

Vera has no idea about such casualty statistics, and just listens quietly.

However, for a veteran of the battlefield like Bliss Knight, this battle is definitely a miracle.

You must know that such a ratio of battle damage, even in the most elite regular army, is enough to cause the army to collapse.

However, these miscellaneous soldiers from Hewan Camp fought tenaciously to the end and won.

Maybe there is Vera’s credit here, after all, her identity has enough appeal.

But Bliss knew that there was more of it, but it was Colin's last stand strategy at work.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Colin on the bed with admiration and regret, and continued to ask:

"Miss, what shall we do next?"

Upon hearing this question, Vera was a little at a loss: "What about your opinion?"

"There were two wolf cavalry units that chased us to the running river. Although we have just defeated one of them, UU reading , we have not been completely out of danger.

Because the other wolf cavalry, although confused by our arrangement, has already crossed the river north, but it must be found out soon and turned back.

However, the big victory we just won will definitely make the other party hesitate, can't figure out our specific strength, and dare not chase us easily.

Therefore, my opinion is to continue to guard the river bend, and then send a messenger to the nearby city to request reinforcements.

As long as our reinforcements arrive before the troll gathers more chasers, we will be safe. "

Vera was a little silent.

She heard the uncertainty in the words of Knight Bliss, but she couldn't come up with a better idea.

At this time, she naturally turned her gaze to the sleeping Colin.

If he can wake up, there must be a better way...

"Okay, just do what you said."

"Yes!"

Out of the camp, Bliss walked with his head down.

He is considering which directions to send envoys for help, and how can he not be intercepted by the troll chasing troops halfway...

"Da Da Da..."

A sound of horseshoes interrupted Bliss's thoughts. He raised his head and saw two cavalrymen running towards the camp.

He quickly recognized that one of them was the cavalry he had sent out to guard the surrounding area, but he did not recognize the other.

However, he recognized the armor on the opponent!

This kind of pure black standard armor, the entire Glory Empire has only one army equipment—

Black Cavalry!

Bliss was ecstatic in his heart, and couldn't help but look back to the direction of the camp where Vera was. A thought flashed in his mind:

Did the Lord of Radiance really answer the lady's prayer?
