"Sudor?" Saru stroked his beard, and suddenly a figure flashed in his mind, "Who is Viscount Sudor of Ice Rock City?"
"He is my father." Colin didn't change his expression and he recognized his new father.
Since discovering that the head of the Firefox Mercenary Group in front of him is not easy to fool, Colin has understood that if you lie, you must pay attention to skill, instead of being like the old mercenary who was found for 20 copper coins. It's not reliable.
Kahn Sudor is a real person.
Of course, Colin didn't know this guy at all, he only learned the name and his recent experience from a recent letter from his sister Caitlin.
The reason why Colin chose to impersonate this person is precisely because of his recent tragic experience, which can make him appear as a knight in a place like the Bearded Tavern.
"I heard that Ice Rock City was breached by trolls three months ago?" Saru naturally thought of the news he had heard before.
"Yes." Colin nodded a little disappointedly. At the same time, unwillingness, hatred, anger... and so on appeared in his eyes. The acting skills that broke out at this moment made him a little surprised.
Saru seemed to have been deceived, and sighed: "I heard that your father would rather die than retreat, and died with the city... indeed he was a respectable knight!"
"Thank you." Colin seemed to be holding back tears, and asked with red eyes, "Do you know my father?"
"Oh, no. I just admired Viscount Sudor for a long time."
Colin breathed a sigh of relief.
A real viscount, a mercenary leader, these two people are not in the same world at all, if they can know each other, then Colin feels that he is really unlucky.
"So, Mr. Saru, can I follow your mercenary group to Fallen Eagle City?"
The reason why Colin wanted to go to Fallen Eagle City was that his sister Caitlin Angele was there.
Under the current crisis-ridden situation, only blood relatives can make him trust.
And because his father was still fighting on the front line, Colin could only seek help from his biological sister.
"Of course." Saru finally believed in the identity that Colin had fabricated.
Moreover, he even thought that he had guessed the reason why Colin wanted to go to Fallen Eagle City: "I remember that the wife of Lord Uman of Fallen Eagle City is the sister of Viscount Sudor, so, are you going to defect to your uncle this time? "
"Yes."
In fact, Colin learned from his sister’s letter that the real Kahn Sudor had already arrived in Fallen Eagle City and became a knight under Earl Uman. He is currently discussing with the Earl how to retake the fief of the Sudor family.
But apparently, Saru did not know this news.
He no longer doubted the identity that Colin had fabricated.
A downturned knight who had lost his fief, his family was in a desperate situation and he wanted to go to Fallen Eagle City to ask his uncle for help.
This is reasonable.
"Tomorrow at eight o'clock in the morning, the caravan that hired us will gather in front of the Bearded Tavern."
"Okay, I will show up on time."
"Haha, then now, dear knight Kahn, let me buy you a drink!"
"My pleasure."
——————————
The second day.
The weather was gloomy and the gray fog made the road in the wild more difficult and more dangerous.
This is actually the reason why Colin is looking for a caravan to go with him. Otherwise, relying on his strength of knight apprentice, if he travels alone, he might have been killed by the band of thieves or beasts in the wild.
I don't know if it is because of the large number of people in this team, or because of the reputation of the Firefox Mercenary Group. In short, there were no accidents on the first day of the travel.
In the evening, the experienced leader Saru found a camping place backed by a small hill and not far from the water source.
Colin set up a fire, boiled some water, and then softened the hard bread and stuffed it into his stomach.
Anyway, he can't taste it now, so it doesn't matter whether the food is good or bad.
The kitten ran away early, and it was probably hunting on its own.
Sure enough, after a while, he saw it came back with a mouse in its mouth.
At this time, Colin had already taken out the sheepskin roll he was carrying with him, and added another sentence on it:
[Human blood can help advance. ]
Yes, Colin found himself advanced, from a knight apprentice to a first-tier knight.
You know, the level from apprenticeship to formal entry has taken Colin three full years!
And the reason for the sudden advancement, Colin now very much suspects that it was the blood of the assassin he had taken the night before.
After drinking the blood that night, Colin noticed that his body started to become slightly hot, but because of the critical situation at the time, he didn't care too much.
The fever continued for the next two days and did not cease until noon today.
Later, he found himself advanced.
Because drinking deer blood did not cause such a fever, Colin guessed that it was caused by human blood.
Of course, he has another guess.
The assassin Carter who was counter-killed by Colin was the first-tier knight, so perhaps only the blood of a professional will help him advance.
In short, this guess has yet to be further verified.
"Is this Elvish?"
Colin turned his head and saw a fat middle-aged man standing behind him, staring at the text on the parchment scroll and guessing pretentiously.
"Yes," Colin said casually while putting away the sheepskin roll.
He recognized that this fat man was the owner of the caravan named Oliver.
"I think that the knight Kahn is very knowledgeable that he is even proficient in Elvish language!" Oliver immediately offered flattery, and then sat next to Colin quite familiarly.
"It's just a little bit." Colin frowned slightly, he didn't like a businessman like Oliver.
In his opinion, these profit-seeking businessmen are too purposeful in doing things, and now it must be a plan to take the initiative to please themselves.
"Is this your pet?" Oliver looked at the kitten who was fighting against the dead mouse and began to say something.
"Yes, it is."
"You really have fun in life!" Oliver smiled like a chrysanthemum, "Does it have a name?"
Colin was stunned. He didn't seem to name this "moving blood bag", but then he thought it on the spot: "It's called Xiao Bai."
"Xiao Bai?" Oliver looked at the pure blue shorthair cat near the fire. The smile on his face was obviously choked, and then immediately returned to normal. "What a good name!"
"Mr. Oliver." Colin also smiled, "You are so hypocritical."
"Thank you very much for your compliment!" Oliver didn't care at all, his face was amazing.
The two chatted immediately, and after getting a little bit acquainted, Oliver suddenly lowered his voice and said:
"Knight Kahn, if you want to regain the fief of the Sudor family, I may be able to provide you with some help!"
Colin, who was originally drowsy, suddenly trembled, turned his head, and looked at the fat businessman beside him.
"Do you know what are you talking about?"
