Chapter 677 The promised reunion

Although walking in the jungle greatly slowed down the pace, it was finally safe along the way.,: .

Three days later, Yoko and his group unexpectedly encountered a team of gray fort soldiers searching along the way, a unique brown-colored leather uniform and the metal long tube behind him, which made him recognize the other party's origin at a glance.

After following the army back to Yongye City and meeting with Duke Kant, he understood what happened. His Majesty Roland, who received Hill's report, directly sent two secret letters, one instructed the First Army detachment originally stationed in Gou Valley Town to be divided into four teams, entering the morning light from four intersections of the "intersection" between the two countries to receive the retreating foreign diplomatic personnel. The other informed the Duke of Northland to enter combat readiness, in other words, that is, to start raising food, cotton, carriage and other materials required for combat. Once the main force arrives in Northland, it can directly start the battle.

Fortunately, the messenger group was safe and sound.

When he said this, the Duke even let out a long sigh, and he was flattered by Yoko.

But what moved him the most was his old friend's reaction to this matter.

Although he knew that the four "female" witches in the team accounted for a large proportion, he still mentioned the name of Ambassador Yoko in the secret letter and ranked him in the position. This treatment alone made him feel that the fright and tossing he suffered along the way was worth it.

Yoko wrote a long letter about what happened during the evacuation and handed it to the Duke, hoping that His Majesty would lift the war readiness of the North after receiving this letter - now he finally knew that Hill was not wrong, and His Majesty's attitude towards this matter was not just casual.

In addition, he was also surprised by the response of the First Army. The time when the flight messenger sent the letter back and forth means that the day he received the order, the troops originally used to guard against the remnants of the church and evil beasts started their operations. It was not that he had seen aristocrats mobilize troops to fight. Just summoning knights, mercenaries and free people would have to "spend" half a month, not to mention group-based tasks. As long as the team disperses and fewer supervisors, the mercenaries who received the advance payment will probably run away in one night.

This is probably the reason why my old friend was able to enter the capital in one day.

Yoko now understood a little that His Majesty's army was different from what he had seen before - not only weapons, but also far superior to those noble vassals in all aspects.

At the same time, as an ambassador, he was not alone. The entire kingdom was not only his backing, but also his sharp blade. When he thought of this, he felt his chest and mouth swelling violently, as if a ball of flame was burning.

Now the only one who made Yoko feel uneasy was No. 76.

According to the prior agreement, those who arrived first would hang a four-color flag in a conspicuous place of the residence. Duke Kant sent someone to search for Yongye City, but he did not see a similar sign. Now they have moved into the mansion arranged by the duke and simply erected a flagpole directly at the door, so that the bright four-color canvas can be fluttered in the wind. As long as they enter the inner city, they can see this sign at a glance.

In fact, he was not the only one who was worried about the other party. Through the window, Yoko often saw Anne and Amy standing under the flagpole, obviously wanting to see the return of the 76th safely as soon as possible. As we got along, Anne's attitude towards him was also changing little by little, at least she would not stare at him with a vigilant look like before.

Hill's men had looked for him more than once, hoping that he could set off for the Western Front as soon as possible. The magician even told him directly that as a tempter, the chance of No. 76 surviving was minimal. If the knights did not come after them, she should have arrived at the border village in one day and then arrived at Eternal Night City faster than their group. Now the meeting place they agreed to have not moved, and the result was basically destined.

Yoko also understood this truth, but he still wanted to wait a few more days, not for anything else, just for the words she said when she parted.

"When the wind is over, I will go and meet you again--it's right in the border city of Gray Castle, remember to wait for me there."

During the days after separation, he finally understood where that strange feeling came from.

Although No. 76 was a nominal slave, he had never treated her as a slave, whether in "black money" or in the Kingdom of Dawn.

Yoko had decided that if she could come back alive, he would give her freedom.

Unfortunately, this enlightenment came too late.

Three more days passed, and just when he was about to leave the north the next day, things suddenly turned around - a carriage was parked by the flagpole. The coachman seemed quite anxious and wanted to ask the guard at the door to say something, but hesitated not to come forward. When Yoko witnessed all this from the window, he had not had time to go out, Anne and Amy had already appeared next to the carriage.

I'm back on the 76th!

The news soon reached every member of the messenger group. Even Duke Kant rushed over curiously, wanting to meet this "servant" and "female" who was brave enough to sacrifice.

But her situation is not good.

When Yoko saw No. 76, she was covered in scars, her right hand and left foot broke and she could hardly move.

"Sir..." No. 76 blinked his eyes and put on a smile with difficulty, "I've been waiting for a long time."

In an instant, he felt his whole body relax.

"Just come back."

The group then continued to stay in Yongye City for a week, and did not set off for Gougu Town until the injury of No. 76 stabilized, and left the north.

During this period, Yoko also asked clearly what happened to the two of them after they parted.

She was caught up by the Knights of Glow City before the sun set. In order to delay time as much as possible, she untied all the horses' reins, drove them to run in the opposite direction, blocked Jia's knights, and at the same time she changed one by herself to escape to the mountains beside the road. However, before she could run far, she was blocked by a mountain stream.

Thinking that she was caught was only dead, she rode her horse down a suspended wall that was more than ten feet deep. Fortunately, there were branches and vines on both sides of the rock wall, so she did not fall to pieces. However, during the rolling down, she kowtowed and bleeding, and her hands and feet were also broken by the protruding rocks. When she fell to the stream, she was already confused.

Perhaps she had not found a suitable way down the mountain, or thought she was dead, the knight did not continue to pursue her. It was already late at night when she woke up, and she was waking up with the cold stream water, and occasionally she could stop one or two tiny fish and shrimps.

Two days later, it was only after seventy-six that the villagers who caught fish nearby were caught, saving their lives.

Although the hero can transfer the illness, he cannot heal the wound. He can only send her to the Western Region to see if the "female" witch there can be any way to restore her health.

No matter what, she finally came back alive!

Yokoxin stood at the bow of the boat with satisfaction, standing in the wind, the sailboat raised its sails and headed towards Wudong City.
