holy flame

To go to the Bright Shield Fortress, Samuel had to span almost two-thirds of the continent. Of course, this was a straight-line distance, and he had to make detours when encountering cliffs, deep pools, lakes, and dense forests and swamps.Even if he has become a paladin now, it doesn't mean that he is really omnipotent.

Along the way, Samuel still followed his past habits, never entering the city unless he needed supplies, and just hurried on his way.However, countless onlookers were still attracted along the way—although the Holy Court was busy arranging the land of the gods, Talan, the birth of the youngest paladin in the history of such a continent is worth notifying the Holy Court to all countries.

A large part of these onlookers hope to become Samuel's followers, and are even willing to become his followers.

Followers and entourages do similar things, but one needs to fill in a "deed of sale", which means a servant.The other is a voluntary pledge of allegiance by one person to another.However, the owner is responsible for the equipment of the followers from head to toe. Although the followers will be rewarded if they make meritorious deeds, the followers don't care about their equipment.In contrast, the latter has more freedom, and it sounds good.Although the former is equivalent to selling one's body, it is easier to become a close subject of the master, and the benefits obtained in daily life are also greater.It can be said that the two have advantages and disadvantages for each other, but generally people with some status or status will choose to become followers unless there are special reasons.

For example, in Samuel's team, on the surface, Julian, Eric, and Bane are followers, Frank and Allen are followers, Ryan is a companion on business, and Zoe...is a servant.

These uninvited people are either some capable and well-known adventurers themselves, or they are from the decline of nobles, have received orthodox knight education, and they are willing to become followers, so they can understand how much the title of paladin is in the hearts of the public. Huge appeal too.

And most of these people understand that the paladins are going to fight the orc battlefields in the north, so except for a few young people who have been poisoned by knight novels and like to daydream, most of them still have real materials.

But Samuel still sent everyone away, and now all his spare time is used to adapt to the training of the new force-he also understands what it means to go to the north to fight, and as a paladin He must be the main force at that time, and he doesn't want to die on the battlefield.But these people rushed more and more, helpless Samuel finally bought a lot of necessities in a certain Dacheng, and then led the people into the jungle!

In Wasteland Town, Samuel camped outside the town with a group of tired companions.They were unlucky enough to meet a group of forest demon wolves in the dense forest. Even if there were only a dozen of them, the speed, strength and physical strength of the monsters were several times higher than ordinary beasts, as well as their unique magical attack power, which was enough for Samuel Er and his party are in a hurry.After all, Samuel, the main attacking and defending force on the human side, is just a rookie paladin. As a result, although they killed the magic wolf, everyone was lucky. Fortunately, there was a silver-robed priest present, so there was no tragedy occur.

However, Samuel, who walked straight through the dense forest, did save a lot of time. They could rest in the wilderness town for a few days before going back on the road.

As always, they camped outside the town, and this time it was Ryan and Eric's turn to enter the town to purchase.After the others set up the camp, assigned the order of guards and the order of cooking, they went to rest.

Samuel was assigned to cook tonight. He dug some loaches and went fishing by the river not far away with a simple homemade fishing rod.Julian joined in halfway, also carrying a broken fishing rod, and sat beside Samuel.

Although Samuel had already figured out that Julian did not empathize with another person before this, and after pursuing him for so long, Samuel also somewhat affirmed his sincerity, but whether he agreed or not, Samuel Er is still hesitating, because now he himself is a little confused about his own thoughts...

The sun shines through the leaves, sleep reflects the sparkling waves, and Julian whispers in his ears. At this moment, Samuel rarely feels relaxed and comfortable, and his eyelids start to fight up and down unconsciously. Leaning on the tree trunk, Samuel slowly fell asleep.

"Samuel? Samuel?"

"Sorry I fell asleep, did the fish run away?"

"Wonderful sleep, actually I want to continue watching, but you have something to do."

Samuel had a headache, couldn't it be another attack from his accident physique?It turns out that Samuel's hunch was right.

Wasteland Town is the last place of supply for the Thorn Hills, and the north of the Thorn Hills is the human kingdom Kallen and the famous entrance of the Dwarf Kingdom, the Blackstone Mountains. Of course, if you go further north, you will find the Bright Shield Fortress.For businessmen, whether they are doing business with the Kingdom of Karlen or the Kingdom of Dwarves, they can get huge benefits, and they can get huge benefits.Therefore, this is a golden trade route, but this trade route attracts not only merchants of all sizes, but also bandits of all sizes.

The Thorn Hills are the best hiding place for bandits and the most frequent robbery place for merchants.After so many years, the merchants have reached a tacit understanding with various bandits, and basically they can be safe and sound after paying a toll.But a few months ago, a new group of bandits appeared here. Not only did they want to rob all the goods, but after the robbery was successful, they would kill all members of the caravan regardless of morality.

Afterwards, the merchants actively searched for various ways to exterminate this gang of bandits, or reached an agreement with them. The local bandit group in Thorn Hills also wanted to find this gang of stinky fish that disregarded the rules, but in the end, no matter whether it was the official government of the surrounding countries who went to exterminate the bandits The military forces, or other bandit groups, were completely annihilated. As for the negotiating envoys sent by the merchants, the other party also accepted the gifts and killed the envoys.

So as of today, the trade route has been cut off for two months.However, the well-informed merchants obviously also heard that a paladin had just been born and rushed to the northern fortress, so they probably thought that the person who solved the problem had come...

"Samuel, these merchants want to follow our team." Ryan was discovered by the merchants as soon as he entered the town, and as a result, his procurement task was completed very simply - just take out the manifest and wait for the other party Just deliver it to your door, it’s free and comes with a lot of gifts~
