Chapter 11 11: Patton
Although there were many injuries on her body, Anji still slept soundly without being disturbed that night.
When she woke up again, she found a small picnic basket beside the bed, containing a loaf of wheat bread with some jam on it, which made her feel warm.
After finishing the breakfast, Anji took out the silver tag and took a look at it.
Under the weak candlelight, a vague blond figure was reflected on the smooth surface of the sign, and a dark area could be vaguely seen on the figure's forehead.
She touched her forehead, and the skin there had hardened and scabbed.
"Sigh...80% of it will leave scars."
Although she didn't care much about her appearance, having such a big scar on her face made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Before walking out of the room, Anji changed out of the petticoat that had a big hole in her body and was still stained with blood, and put on the gray-blue petticoat that was placed at the end of the bed. She thanked Jie Xier again in her heart and walked out of the door.
.
This medieval castle is dark and gloomy, without any windows, and the only means of lighting are the candles in the recesses on the wall.
But the strange thing is that the bodies of those candles are actually black, and the surroundings are also extremely clean, with no wax slipping off, as if every candle is brand new.
She slowly stretched her hand closer to the candle and stopped a few centimeters away from the flame, but she still couldn't feel any warmth.
"Forget it, a candle that can illuminate is a good candle."
After all, in this world, evil things are everywhere.
After thinking about it like this, Anji no longer hesitated and walked down the corridor.
This place is more like a tower than a castle. There is only a long spiral stone staircase for walking, and a door will appear at regular intervals. Behind the door should be a room where servants live.
The advantage is that at least you don’t have to worry about getting lost.
Although there were many rooms, she didn't meet anyone as she walked along. Only her own faint footsteps echoed in the seemingly endless corridor.
"Are all medieval castles so depressing..."
Anji emboldened herself by talking to herself in this way, and at the same time accelerated her pace. As she ran faster and faster, the surrounding environment became brighter and brighter, and she also heard the metal sound coming from outside.
Crash sound.
When she finally ran out of the building, she was surprised to see a large number of soldiers in chainmail gathering not far away, shouting excitedly.
"Captain, come on, don't lose to the deputy commander!"
"Barton, you kid is not good enough. Hurry up and admit defeat!"
When the soldiers were cheering, Anji reluctantly squeezed in between them, and brilliant sparks flashed before his eyes.
About five meters ahead, I saw two people fighting fiercely. One was a young boy with an immature face, and the other was a burly middle-aged man.
The young man's facial features were similar to Jessir's, even the location of his freckles was exactly the same, but his hair was bright golden, making it obvious that he was Jessir's younger brother, Barton.
At this time, Barton had an excited smile on his face and held the sword in both hands. It seemed bulky, but he was able to dodge the opponent's attack just right every time. There seemed to be flames burning in his emerald eyes.
The person fighting him was a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His skin color was darker. In this crisp autumn weather, he only wore a short-sleeved cloth shirt, revealing a pair of strong arms. A huge iron hammer was on his
Waves of wind emitted from the wave, which made people tremble with fear.
Although this man also had a faint smile on his face, he was not as excited as Patton and gave people a sense of simplicity and calmness. Judging from the shouts of the surrounding soldiers, this man should be their regimental commander.
At this time, the battle has entered a fierce stage.
The leader's right arm swelled up visibly, he shouted loudly, raised the hammer in his hand high, and hit Barton hard with a terrifying momentum.
The hammer flashed a silver light in the sun, and with a loud "bang" sound, sand and soil flew instantly on the field.
But Barton used his dexterous and soft body to roll to the side and barely escaped the blow.
The captain, whose attack failed, did not pull out the weapon embedded in the soil. Instead, he put his weight on the hammer and twisted his body into a strange angle.
At that moment, Anji seemed to see a fleeting black mist coming out of the leader's body.
But when she rubbed her eyes, the black mist disappeared again.
The next second, she saw Barton being kicked out by the captain and hitting a tree trunk with a thud. He grinned in pain and covered his abdomen in pain. The sword in his hand was also there.
He fell to the ground as he flew out.
Seeing that the winner was decided, the crowd burst into deafening cheers, which made Anji cover his ears.
The soldiers happily stepped forward and surrounded the big man.
Anji, on the other hand, silently bypassed the crowd, picked up the sword that fell on the ground, and then walked towards the young man who was knocked away under the tree.
"Hiss--it hurts, it hurts..."
Barton clutched his stomach and wailed. There was some mud on his originally fair face, which must have been accidentally applied while dodging.
At this time, he no longer had the high-spirited look of a young man. He leaned against the tree with a gray face, his brows furrowed, and he closed his left eye tightly in pain and narrowed the other eye slightly.
After hesitating for a while, Anji squatted down and handed the sword to him.
"Hello, I'm Angie. Lord Slade asked me to find you."
As if he didn't expect someone to come to him at such an inappropriate time, Barton was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and took the sword.
But at this moment, his smile suddenly froze, his green eyes widened, and he suddenly exclaimed:
"Ah! I remember you! The girl who knocked her head!"
???
"Clam?"
When Anji heard this title, he was stunned for a second and then asked him angrily.
"What do you mean a girl who knocked her head off!"
Barton did not flinch because Angie was angry, but instead smiled and pointed at his forehead.
That's exactly where Angie's wound was.
Misstep.
Originally Anji thought that Jessiel's brother would be as easy to get along with as she was, but now it seems that is not the case at all.
Maybe it's because all the attention that the younger brother lacks is given to the older sister.
She resisted the urge to fight to the death with Barton, tried her best to put on a kind smile, took out the silver medal in her pocket, and waved it in front of Barton.
"Sir Slade gave me this apprentice knight certificate and asked me to come to you."
The blond boy showed a shocked expression again. He looked Anji up and down, and with a mean smile, he said:
"Hey! This is big news! There is going to be a female knight in our castle?"
The smile on Anji's face became brighter and brighter, and she secretly clenched her fists: "So, what should I do?"
"Oh, that's easy."
Barton stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and said with a smile: "Be my subordinate first! I will personally guide you!"
"By the way, your purple neck looks quite impressive! Is it some kind of special physique?"
"Barton." Seeing that the other party was getting more and more angry, Anji finally couldn't help it anymore, "Have I ever told you that if you don't know how to speak, you don't have to speak?"
He thought for a rare moment, remained silent for less than two seconds, and then smiled playfully again.
"Ah, it seemed like they were coming! But then they stopped saying that because they couldn't beat me!"
"...Okay."
Endure the calm for a while and take a step back to open up the sky.
