Chapter 255: A Hundred Mile Covenant

After drinking, Roger cleaned up the table and lay on the blanket and thought carefully.

Barclays didn't know many things, such as the terrifying red-clothed puppet master Yuan, who had no idea about this person.

He had never been to the Dark Abyss. He had no idea what creatures there were and what masters there were. He had to know all of these by himself.

His situation did not improve much. Although he briefly bid farewell to his life of escape, his enemies did not decrease. Behemoths like the Tuli family and the Holy See are still standing. It seems to be in turmoil, but there is no power to collapse them. The Burial Church and the Crusaders also show signs of revival.

In fact, he faced much more than these problems. Even if the Holy See and all his enemies disappeared, he could not return to his former life. The identity of a puppet master was destined to be unable to be accepted by this land, either becoming synonymous with fear, enslaving this continent, or hiding his identity as before, or entering the abyss of darkness and embarking on completely different paths.

Obviously, no matter that road, it was not easy for him.

He fell asleep in a daze while thinking.

It was sunny in the morning, and a graceful figure stood at the door of his camp, and a crisp sound came in from outside.

"Uncle, are you here?"

Since the tent is made of doors, the people outside the door can only call him by his name.

Roger opened his eyes and saw that after Kan Ding Cheng's trial, his sleep was very alert, and his slight movements would also alert him. He sat up and saw the figure at the door of the camp.

He got up and opened the door. The girl outside the door did not expect him to appear suddenly, and took a step back and patted her chest.

"Did you scare? Yalei?"

Roger looked at the girl who had completely changed her appearance at the door.

She changed out of silver armor and wore a black skirt. The skirt was tied behind her, and the silk mesh on her head was white, looking like a wealthy lady.

She smiled and said, "No, uncle, it's great to see you're fine."

The days spent with Roger in the life penalty area were the most strange experience of her life. She was born and died with him and witnessed his "death" with her own eyes. She watched him resurrection and accepted that terrible judgment. Every time she thought of him crying with the girl.

Roger smiled, trying to say something but didn't say it.

Facing this simple girl again, I could only look down on each other and speechlessly.

But Yalei didn't think so much, and smiled with her hands behind her back, "Uncle, I'll take you on a horse."

"horse riding?",

Roger took his hand before he could refuse her.

The two camp tents were only a hundred steps apart. In front of her camp were two foals, one red and one black. Yale led the black horse and handed him the reins.

"Where is your white foal?" Roger asked, touching the little red horse's hair.

He still remembers the little foal she had never been reluctant to ride.

Yale pointed to the east and smiled, "In the horse hut, Master will help me raise it. I will only become my mount when it grows a little longer. Let it live with dignity before that."

Roger couldn't help laughing, he stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse, and Yale walked side by side with him.

They didn't whip the foals, just let them wander around. Yale said: "When I was a child, my father always raised me as a boy and forced me to practice swordsmanship and riding. If I didn't practice well, I would get whipped. I was clumsy and beaten every time."

"This is how the family comes from up and down, so no one comforts me. Only the white foal will trot over and rub me after I was beaten and stay by my side. At that time, I thought it was so cute and swear that I would never ride it until it grew up."

Roger smiled and said, "A very interesting story."

"Uncle, this is not a story, it is true," Yale said: "When I tell this story, they all find it funny, but if there is only one horse in this world who will listen carefully to you and accompany you when you are sad, you will definitely treat it as a friend."

She said it seriously.

Roger did not laugh at her and nodded, "Although he did not have the same experience, he could understand it."

Yale smiled, took out a silver button from his pocket and handed it to him.

"Uncle, I'll give this to you."

Roger took the button and looked over and over. It was just a normal button and nothing special.

Yalei smiled and said, "Uncle, no matter what happens, don't throw it away."

“Is there anything special about it?”

Yalei smiled and said, "If the uncle doesn't know the meaning of this button, please ask Uncle Oga."

She waved her hand and left like the wind.

She might have a crush on herself. Although Roger is not narcissistic, he can only think so at this time. He put the buttons in his pocket and rode back to his tent. However, when he passed a certain white tent on the way, he happened to see Luo Jue walking out of the tent.

A man in brocade clothes personally sent him out of the tent. The man had a cold temperament all over his body, and he must be the famous hero Barbery.

Roger turned over and dismounted. He then led the horse to the camp after the man walked into the camp. He looked at the camp's soldiers with a lot more than yesterday.

"Roger",

Luo Jue looked at him with a soft look.

Roger said: "Have all the soldiers and horses of the Groot family been transferred back?"

"Two-thirds of the troops have been transferred back, and there are still three thousand cavalry, and five thousand infantry are displayed outside the Norman line of defense," Luo Jue said.

Then there was a silence. After a while, Roger said, "There is a question I wanted to ask you yesterday, but I was afraid of knowing the answer."

He lowered his head, clenched his palm silently and asked, "Lolita, can she still be resurrected? You have saved her once."

His voice trembled a little. He always wanted to ask this question but dared not ask, just because the person in front of him was already the only hope for Lolita's resurrection. He expected his answer to be yes, but he was even more afraid that he would tell him the answer that made him desperate.

Lolita has been away from him for so long, but he never dared to accept that answer.

Seeing his nervous look, Luo Jue knew what position Lolita occupies in his heart. He said softly: "I have never seen her body, but Roger, I believe that my father can find your precious things for you. Since it is what you cherish, even if you compete with the heavens, my father will help you take them back."

Roger looked up at him. This was the first time he heard his father's promise to him. The resentment and contradictions in his heart showed signs of melting under his promise.

Luo Jue touched his head and said, "Gods and demons have existed, and the secret of life has been in their hands. When the Groot family's promise of 100 miles will be completed, I will take you and Angel to the abyss of darkness. What you want will get the answer there." (To be continued...)
