Colin felt that he was not a charitable person.
But he didn't expect to meet someone.
However, this is not surprising.
Although Vera is superb, after all, she is still young.
And most of the time was spent studying arcane arts in the tower of Yevil, and there was no cruel experience in the world.
But what made Colin helpless was that the knight Bliss was actually very clear that they should abandon these rout soldiers, but no matter how Colin persuaded, the knight of the Saint Hilde family resolutely refused to defy Vera's will.
This made Colin feel a little bit confused and angry.
Who exactly is Vera?
From Colin's point of view, Bliss's strength is probably already a Tier 4 knight. A knight of this rank can definitely be regarded as a core combat power even in the Saint Hilde family, and his status is definitely not low.
Then why did he obediently obey this female mage, even at the cost of his own life?
Had it not been known that the Duke of St. Hilde had only three sons and no daughters, I am afraid Colin would have suspected that this Vera was the Duke’s daughter.
Although he was disappointed with the future of this team, Colin didn't panic.
After all, even if he was overtaken by wolf cavalry, he could pretend to be dead and slip away.
There must be no one in this world who can pretend to be dead like him...
Colin is very confident about this.
As for other people, they can only ask for their blessings.
There is nothing he can do.
For the next two days, everything was calm.
There are no trolls chasing, and they didn't see any thieves.
On the contrary, they encountered several waves of defeated soldiers who had escaped from the Mirror Lake battlefield.
Vera certainly accepted them without hesitation.
At this time, the cavalry squad, which was originally less than a hundred people, quickly expanded to more than one thousand people.
Although the number has increased, people with a little bit of military knowledge know that combat effectiveness has actually not much improved.
Marching and fighting are not always better with more people, especially when conducting "strategic maneuvers."
Obviously, Vera is such a woman with little military knowledge.
However, under Thrall's flickering praise, she has become more and more confident after seeing the increase in the number of the team and even has the absurd idea of continuing to gather the routs and fight the trolls to death.
However, in addition to these bad things, there is good news.
A recent wave of soldiers told them that after defeating the Marquis of Charles, the main force of the trolls chased them northward. Therefore, near Mirror Lake is now safe.
This message made everyone delighted and excited.
In this way, all this fugitive team had to face was the wolf cavalry unit that had chased them before.
Although the wolf cavalry had misjudged the direction of their breakthrough, but after so many days, they should have already reacted.
According to Colin's idea, the wisest thing to do now is to abandon those routs and continue north before the wolf cavalry catches up, looking for a hiding in the nearest human town.
Instead of continuing to receive routs like this, causing the marching speed to be dragged down, and finally being caught up by the wolf cavalry.
The development of the matter was as expected by Colin.
After another two days, the trace of the troll whistle riders was finally found behind the fleeing team.
"Master Colin, I am afraid that the previous wolf cavalry is about to catch up, or we should quickly leave the team and escape by ourselves!" The knight Raymond apparently realized that it was not good, and quietly found Colin and suggested.
Colin didn't panic now.
He even wanted to see the fate of these clever people who didn't listen to his advice.
Perhaps, there is still a chance to get the blood of knight Bliss and the female mage.
In this regard, Colin didn't felt guilty.
Because he didn't intentionally murder these two people for blood.
On the contrary, he had reminded them a long time ago, but if these people want to find their own deaths, then he has no choice but to "use waste" in accordance with the principle of not being wasteful.
But……
Colin glanced at Raymond beside him.
For this loyal knight, he didn't want him to die here.
"Run by yourself, I still want to..."
"Master! If you don't leave, I will never leave!"
Obviously, Raymond misunderstood Colin's meaning.
But Colin also has no way to explain, he can't tell the other party that he is very good at pretending to be dead, don't worry, right?
Just as Colin was thinking about how to flick Raymond away, a soldier ran over and said, "Master Colin, Master Bliss asked you to come over."
"Okay." Colin had to clear up his mood for a while and followed the soldiers to a tent in the middle of the camp.
In the tent, in addition to Vera and Bliss, the filial son Thrall was there.
These days, Thrall, with his excellent eloquence, clever mind, and flattering posture, has clearly become Vera's licking dog.
Colin had to admire his drilling methods.
But at the same time, he felt disgusted with this annoying guy.
"Knight Colin, you are here." Vera smiled and nodded to Colin. It seemed that there was no gap due to the previous dispute about receiving the defeated soldiers.
Bliss nodded.
Thrall bowed and saluted, with a warm smile on his face: "I didn't expect to see you again, dear Kahn..."
"Snapped!"
Colin flicked the whip in his hand and drew it directly, interrupting the second half of the filial son's words.
"Knight Colin, what are you doing?" Vera was taken aback by this incident and asked aloud.
Colin sneered, pointing at Thrall who had been knocked to the ground, and said angrily: "Mercenary boy, remember my name is - Colin Angele!"
Thrall was obviously stunned by Colin's whip.
At this time, he still didn't figure out how the former "Kahn Sudor" could become "Colin Angele", but the burning pain on his body still let him know what he should do now.
"Sorry, Lord Colin, I remembered it wrong."
As a commoner, Thrall had no right to question a nobleman, even if the nobleman had indeed lied.
"Huh! Punish you to lead the horse of knight Colin!" Vera, who felt that she had figured out the cause of the matter, snorted, she didn't want to blame Colin, and she even felt that the punishment of a whip was a little light.
In this rigorously hierarchical world, it is an exaggeration for a commoner to call the wrong name of the nobleman.
Colin looked angrily on the surface, but inside he laughed.
He had seen this big dutiful son not pleasing to eyes long ago, and now he just took the opportunity to retaliate.
Of course, it is also to prevent the other party from telling the story of his previous use of a pseudonym.
"Okay, knight Colin, this time we gathered to discuss with you our future direction, presumably you also know that the wolf cavalry behind us is catching up again."
Facing Vera's question, Colin didn't immediately answer, but ordered Thrall, who was still kneeling on the ground, "You, go out first!"
Thrall quietly clenched his fist but didn't dare to refute Colin, so he looked at Vera with a plea for help.
But obviously, he overestimated his place in Vera's heart.
"Thrall, you go out first."
"Yes."
Thrall had to get up and leave.
And at the same time, he deeply bent his head, not wanting the uncontrollable anger in his eyes to be discovered.
