lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Knight's Journey!
Three days before the new year, someone Locke unexpectedly came to him.
"Princess Angelina, is that you?" Locke asked incredulously as he looked at the gorgeously dressed, radiant and beautiful woman with long blonde hair. Originally, he would not add the word ‘princess’ in his words, but as a low-level attendant, he could now feel a sense of oppression around him, so he quickly added.
Angelina's expression didn't change much at first, "You get back first! I have something to say with Knight Rock." Angelina tilted her head and said to the surrounding.
It was obviously empty all around, but there was a burst of footsteps. As it gradually moved away, the pressure Locke felt also faded.
After there was no movement, Angelina's face loosened, her eyes looked at Locke, and a strange atmosphere emerged from the two of them.
This is Locke’s camp, where Locke and Angelina sit by the bed and chat. The tents distributed to squadron leaders like Locke are very simple. Although they are independent camps, they have no extra furniture except for a bed and a table. The two can only sit by the bed and make do.
Fortunately, Angelina and Locke have done things more intimately. This kind of behavior of sitting on the bed with the opposite sex, Angelina has nothing else but a flush on her face.
"Why did you come to me?" Locke curiously asked, that a princess like Angelina was strictly protected in every move. He originally thought that seeing Angelina again, it was estimated that the war would be over. Time.
"I haven't seen you for so long, can't you come to see it?" Angelina gave Locke a roll of eyes. Angelina, who is only 16 years old, is now the season for the girl to cherish spring. Now he has not seen Locke for half a month. Angelina was a little uncomfortable.
Angelina's playful answer made Locke feel a little warm, and the sense of distance between the two of them due to a long time of not seeing each other and the disparity in status has also dissipated a lot.
"What's going on?" Locke raised his brows outside. He was referring to the group of people who were guarding outside, although they couldn't see where they were hiding.
Speaking of this, Angelina let out a depressed sigh, "This is the guard sent by the father to find me." Although Locke has never heard of the name of the'secret guard', literally, no It's hard to guess who this group is.
These dark guards were also unlucky. They were sent out two months ago to track Angelina’s whereabouts, but they tracked down to the border of Charlo and did not catch up with the princess. Angelina was then protected. When they entered the Morphy Forest, they completely lost Angelina's trace. The vast Murphy Forest erased all possible traces.
It wasn't until Angelina was attacked by blood red and met Locke's camp that Angelina's traces were transmitted back.
What Locke didn’t know was that during the days when he and Angelina lived in the Bering Mountains, on the other side of the cliff not far from where they fell, there were three guards searching for their corpses. .
After Angelina was safely taken back by Locke, the group of secret guards was arranged by Prince Kensell by Angelina to protect Angelina's safety.
Later Locke and Angelina talked about the short stories of the parents, mostly Locke was talking and Angelina was listening. Angelina seemed to be very interested in the trivial things that happened in Locke's usual life.
Angelina also talked a lot about what happened to her recently, what kind of banquet between the nobles, Locke was not interested in it, Angelina seemed to know this too, and they talked about other things, such as high-level recent The movements of her, the orders issued by her brother Prince Kensell, etc., there are some things that are related to her daughter's home.
Locke listened to these with gusto. The decisions of the high-level were closely related to the lives of their low-level soldiers. Locke listened very carefully to a lot of information that Angelina said.
"I am still one of the leaders of Faustin's magician army~" Angelina said to Locke as if offering a treasure.
Locke was still digesting Angelina’s last sentence. Prince Kensell decided to start with the city of Otis as soon as the new year was over. At first, he didn't hear clearly. After the reaction came, Locke looked at Angelina in surprise.
Angelina seems to be very proud of Locke’s expression, pouting proudly, "I will cover you in the future!"
Locke has always been curious about magicians, of course, some have a lot of awe. Locke was impressed by the magic that was scattered all over the battlefield.
Angelina is now one of the leaders of the magician army, her military rank is close to the level of the regiment commander, and it is nothing wrong with Locke. Even this may be one of the thickest thighs of Faustin's military high-level.
Angelina, who had dozens of magicians under her hand, had an aura of beating Fang Qiu, but then she dropped her face again, thinking that it seemed that she was not directing others, but that they were protecting her. At least two intermediate magic apprentices were protecting her by her side.
Angelina also found out that Locke had already advanced to a low-level attendant at this time. She didn't care, but took it for granted. Angelina doesn't have much time to stay here. A princess who spends too much time in an ordinary non-commissioned officer's camp will cause a lot of gossip, especially among the nobles, where all kinds of dirty things continue.
It was almost noon, Angelina left. The threatening feeling that had been shrouded around Locke then dissipated. Locke knew that this was the person who protected her and left. Fortunately, the two of them were just talking and chatting in the camp, and did not do anything unusual. Of course, eavesdropping is impossible. Angelina is a princess anyway, and those who protect her dare not commit crimes.
If they still eavesdropped, Locke would be miserable. During this period, Angelina spoke to Locke very intimately, and anyone with a discerning eye could see what the relationship was between them.
Looking at Angelina going away, Locke also took away the thoughts of practicing, and there was not enough time. Locke felt a little dazed to think of Angelina's departure and asking him to change a pair of armor and saber.
His current armor is the half-length armor bestowed by the Baron. It is much stronger and more gorgeous than the standard armor of the squadron leader he had before. The pale silver half-length armor makes Locke fall in love with it and wear it every day. On the body, it is not too tired. According to Locke's idea, wearing it as exercise.
As for the saber, I asked the businessman Henry for no money. From Locke's experience, this long sword is also good, not about the same as his last one, and its hardness and sharpness are both superior.
If you want to replace it, in addition to spending money to buy it from the Baron’s caravan, you will only need to use military merit to replace it.
Unfortunately, Locke only has two hundred gold scrolls in his hand. This thing can only be exchanged for money in the king's capital. Locke in the baron's caravan inquired about it, but he didn't accept this thing, because the authenticity can't be verified, and Locke has nothing to do. The only cash available now is Xia Qian earning two thousand silver delle, because the amount is relatively large, and it is kept by the merchant Henry.
Henry is also a chief steward in the baron caravan anyway, and he won't pit his money. When to extract it is a matter of one sentence.
But Locke does not plan to spend this money. The money can be taken back to improve the lives of himself, his parents and sister in the future. Two thousand Yindeler, say more, say too little, mainly depends on how they spend, according to Locke's understanding of his parents and sisters, most of them are saved for his wife.
Then only military merit is left. Speaking of which, Locke hasn’t checked his military merit since returning to the camp. The last time Prince Kensell and the Marquis of Mammon met him, they encouraged him. There has been no substantial reward so far, and the two big figures shouldn't forget his credit, it can only be converted into military credit for him.
Military functions can be exchanged for money, for equipment, for potions, and for military ranks. In Faustin’s barracks, as long as you have military merit, you can change anything.
In the first two years as a soldier, Locke knew nothing. I exchanged the military merits gained each time into money and sent it back to my family. Afterwards, I experienced a lot and gained insights, so I didn’t do this kind of stupid thing about buying cassines and returning pearls. Military merits are much harder than money. The promotion of second-class soldier last year or the promotion of squadron captain this year is not unrelated to Locke's significant military merits.
The soldiers at the bottom can only rely on their own continuous accumulation of military merits in order to gain progress. In the history of Faustan Kingdom, many rookie nobles have one thing in common with their ancestors, that is, they have been soldiers.
Locke suddenly looked forward to how much military merit he has now.
While it’s still early, Locke went to the quarters camp. The armors and weapons that were placed around the quarters camp that once made him jealous, now that he looks jealous, but feels lighter. After all, he is not short of money, and his military merit is certainly not low. It is not difficult to want this.
Walking to the supervisor's office here, a man wearing a black hat greeted him. He was the supervisor here. It is said that he was a relative of the Baron Kedozi's family and his confidant.
The man obviously knew Locke too, and he smiled and said hello, "Captain Locke, what can I do for you here?" He was very enthusiastic.
"I want to find out how much my military merits are." Locke said directly.
The man showed a surprised expression at first. Seeing Locke did not respond, he explained, "Don’t you know what Locke’s squadron leader? The squadron leader’s first-level military merit records are all in the corps logistics office. We only record second-class soldiers. And below."
Looking at Locke still looking confused, the man continued, "The squadron leader level is already the highest level of combat power in our battalion. Weapons and armor in the quarters battalion, each squadron leader has a corresponding The quota can be used, and if it is damaged after the battle, it can be replaced for free."
Locke patted his brain, he suddenly remembered why he asked Henry for ordinary weapons and armor, Henry looked at him very strange, the leader of the sentiment squadron can be a white-collar worker in the baron's military supply camp!
The weapons and armors of the military camp are of course much stronger than those in other places. This is also York’s negligence. He even forgot to introduce this to Locke. Perhaps he thought Locke knew this. So I didn't say it.
Since he didn't ask about his military merits, Locke immediately turned around and went to the Ministry of War. He just took a look at the armor and weapons of the quarters camp, and it was not much better than what Henry found for him, so he didn't change it. From this perspective, Henry treated Locke at least as a solid businessman. These weapons and armors he found for Locke for free, discounted them to about 150 silver delle. He has been in the army for four years, and the sum of his salary is that amount.
