Chapter 370: Double Saints' Fu
The Cavalier supported Mrs. Smith, who was crying, and comforted her, "Love my Lord, Mrs. Smith, please don't be sad. Al may have stayed at a friend's house and forgot to tell you."
"No...No..." Mrs. Smith wiped her tears with her handkerchief and choked, "Al is a good boy. She won't spend the night without saying a word. Something must have happened to her."
Luo You walked up in confusion. When Mrs. Smith saw Luo You coming, she immediately walked up anxiously, grabbed Luo You's sleeve and asked, "Customer from afar, was Al with you last night?"
Luo You shook his head and said, "No."
"This is impossible! This city is so small, where can she go if she is not with you?" Mrs. Smith was also anxious and immediately pointed her finger at Luo You.
Soon, Luo You became the focus of people gathering around him.
As we all know, small towns are often closed and have poor population mobility, so neighbors are very familiar with each other and people from other places can notice anything at a glance.
Now someone suddenly disappeared. The first thing is to suspect is that the target will not be the person who lives in the city all year round. On the contrary, Luo You, a far-reaching guest, is the most suspicious! Not to mention that the boy is wrapped in a bandage and a cloak, looking like he is afraid that others will see his appearance. He will not be a wanted criminal who escaped here!
The head of the knight walked up with a calm face. The nearby knights instigated the horses without hesitation, surrounded Luo You in circles, and at the same time signaled the onlookers to retreat.
After a while, Luo You was surrounded by patrol knights. The knight was very talented and brave. He walked to Luo You and asked in a low voice: "Love my lord, this guest, we need you to cooperate with the investigation."
Luo You didn't do anything bad, and was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, but he didn't like being led by someone, so he replied calmly: "What if I say no?"
This sentence made the atmosphere around him tense. The knights on the horse quietly put their right hands on the grip of the sword. The head of the knight also silently pulled down the full-coverage helmet for combat and said deeply: "That may cause you a little harm, my friend."
Just as the atmosphere became more and more stiff and the sound of the sword slowly unsheathed, the sound of running horse hooves sounded in the distance.
The sound of horse hooves approached, and with the neighing of the war horses, a scout of the patrol cavalry came down from the horse, walked anxiously to the captain of the knight, and said, "The Lord is above, I saw the team of the 'Swearers' in the mountains outside the city, and Miss Al seemed to have been caught by them!"
Because he ran in a hurry, the scout said that he did not suppress the sound, and everyone around him heard it.
At this moment, bursts of exclamations rang around him. Mrs. Smith was stunned at first, then cried loudly, almost fainting: "No! Why is the abandoner... Al... My Al... Poor child..."
"What?" The Knight took off his helmet and said with a pale face, "Abandoners? Damn... These bastards actually started specifically in Double Holy Week!"
The scout continued to report: "It is a large team with a population of about one hundred. I also saw their flag, which should be Blackbeard Richard."
The head of the knight was shocked when he heard the name, glanced at the restless crowd, and said heavily: "We only have more than twenty patrol knights and more than thirty infantrymen, and cannot deal with this abandoner and need to ask for support."
"I'm afraid there is no time..." The scout took out a crossbow arrow, tied a letter to it, and handed it to the Knight.
As soon as the Knight Master opened the letter, a rub of platinum hair cut from Al's head fell out of it. The content of the letter was also very simple, and he asked the patrol knights in the city to go there, otherwise a small part of it would be taken from Al's body every hour. This time it was hair, and the next time it might be.
The head of the knight had a pale face. Facing Mrs. Smith who was almost crying and the many panicked nuns, as a knight, he really couldn't say anything, but if he went there rashly, he would not tell whether he would be ambushed. Even if he had a dignified duel, the patrol troops in the city had no hope of winning.
Nearby, more and more people heard the news, and even Britney came. When she heard that Al was kidnapped by the abandoner, she stood there like a zombie. When she saw the long platinum hair falling out of the envelope, her emotions burst out.
Britney hit Luo You's weakness, grabbed his collar and slapped his face, shouting heart-wrenchingly: "You beast! Bastard! You can't even protect a girl. What's the use of you! What's the use of you?"
Before Britney could slap her, she was directly hit by Luo You's face. Luo You only had heavy or heavier, not lighter. This punch directly hit her in a dizzy way and fell to the ground to struggle.
Before the scout could react, Luo You had already arrived beside him. His red eyes were shining with a faint fierceness like a wild beast, and he said in a low voice: "Take me over there."
Seeing that the scout was stunned and did not respond, Luo You lifted him up with one hand and threw him on the horse.
The Knight was a little shocked. One was shocked by Luo You's powerful arm strength. Although the scout did not wear heavy armor for charge, the total weight was about 200 kilograms and was thrown on the horse's back with one hand. The other was shocked by the boy's anxiety than them. It seemed that he attached great importance to this matter, or to Al.
The Knight Master hesitated for a while and finally chose the latter in safety and honor. He said to one of his men: "I heard that on Christmas Eve, a Knight of the Round Table was in Venice for the festival and went to ask for help! Everyone else, come with me with weapons!"
More than fifty soldiers from the patrol troops set out quickly. Because there were infantry, the knights riding on horses could not be disconnected from the large army, so they did not move quickly.
According to the direction detected by the scout, the troops crossed a mountainous area and came to the vast plain.
This small town is remote and has weak garrison power. It is usually attacked by thieves, but it is the first time it has been attacked by abstainers of this scale, let alone during the Double Holy Week.
Luo You walked with the large army at this time, looked at the Knight Commander sideways, and asked, "What is the abandoner?"
"The Lord is above, this name makes me sick." The Knight lifted the charge mask on his face, revealing his serious face, and said gloomyly, "As the name suggests, the abandoner is the one who has turned his oath and given up his faith at the same time."
"They used to be knights who served the Lord, and they were thrown into the arms of darkness because of some temptation and became enemies with the church." The head of the knight seemed to remember something heavy, and the words followed were almost gritted, "These people were keen on hunting and killing the people of the church. They had no principles, killing the elderly, killing children, and killing women, and their sins were extremely serious!"
"If I have the chance, I am willing to use my life and long sword to eradicate them and protect the people behind me from invasion!"
