TOV28
Colin woke up.
He looked around for a while and found that he was still in the original camp.
I don't know how many days I have been in a coma. I can only tell from the surrounding light that it was at night.
In addition to him, there is one person in the tent - Vera.
She quietly lay on the edge of the bed, seeming to be asleep.
Colin looked at Vera's white hair with a hint of warmth in his heart.
It is undeniable that his previous actions were indeed a deliberate show based on his immortality.
But it seems, a little bit of fun...
Looking back now, when he was injured for the first time, he was able to control the injury.
But the second time, when he blocked spear aimed at Vera, he couldn't help it.
The severe pain and severe wounds made it impossible for Colin to stop the bleeding in time.
In addition, he later saw some unsuitable images for children...
In short, Colin felt that this accident should have been caused by excessive blood loss.
It seems that if you are injured in the future, you must stop the bleeding as soon as possible.
Colin secretly warned himself.
Then, he thought about it again that he seemed to wake up once.
Moreover, there was a priest pouring holy water into his mouth...
However, the holy water didn't seem to cause any harm to him but instead helped him recover from his injuries.
Wrong.
It's not just about recovering from injuries.
Colin carefully experienced the changes in his body again.
He found that his body was warming slightly, just like the situation after drinking knight Carter's blood!
Could it be said that holy water can also help him improve?
This is interesting.
According to the ecstasy in his heart, Colin determined to wait a few more days to see if his strength really improved.
If the holy water really has the same effect as the blood of the knight.
Either that, the setting of the vampires in this world is a bit weird.
Either...
There is a problem with the holy water of the Glorious Church.
Also, the silver python that he dreamed of in a coma before.
It seems more than just an inexplicable dream.
He always felt that the blood of that giant python was a bit too real.
Really, not like a dream...
Colin was lying on the bed, wildly thinking.
He just woke up from a coma, and he couldn't sleep either.
So he opened his eyes and waited till dawn.
"Good morning, Miss Vera."
"Ah, Colin, you are awake!"
Colin looked at the undisguised surprise in Vera's eyes, and felt a little guilty - isn't it bad to deceive an innocent girl like this?
But soon, Colin got rid of the idea.
After all, although he was planning to pretend to be dead before, he almost really died.
Therefore, Vera's goodwill can indeed be regarded as an exchange for his life.
According to the rhythm of the romance TV series, Vera should almost confess her love to him now.
"How long have I been in a coma?"
"Three days!"
"So long?"
"Yes. Thanks to Archbishop Revan's holy water."
Colin secretly wrote down Revan’s name, and at the same time inquired: "Then I must thank him! I wonder why Archbishop Revan appeared here?"
"He came here with my uncle, Marquis Garcia. By the way, my uncle brought the Black Cavalry to support, so we are safe!"
"Marquis Garcia is here too! Then we are indeed safe."
"Yes. You must be hungry? I'll find you something to eat."
Vera said, got up, and walked out of the tent.
Seeing the girl's graceful figure, Colin suddenly felt that this injury was not a loss.
"Meow~"
Xiao Bai also found that his "human slave" was awake, and excitedly leaned forward to lick Colin a few times, then found a comfortable position on the bed and continued to sleep.
Colin touched the kitten's soft hair and began to search for information about Marquis Garcia in his mind.
Then he discovered that his predecessor was unexpectedly an admirer of the Marquis of Garcia.
Well, in the north Marquis Garcia is the idol of young people his age.
However, Colin also found some interesting things from his memory.
For example, although the Marquis of Garcia is the first person in the Northern Army, the Black Cavalry in his hand is also an invincible division.
However, three years ago he had retreated from the front line against the trolls.
Although it was Marquis Garcia who took the initiative to retreat from the front line, he also advertised that he himself wanted to take a vacation and let the soldiers of the Black Cavalry take a break.
However, in the eyes of discerning people, this "official rhetoric" is obviously not the truth of the matter.
There is only one reason why Marquis Garcia retreats from the front line - suspicion!
The suspicion from the Duke of the North.
Although there are things such as meritorious deeds in this world, the truth is the same.
There is no difference in people's hearts.
The prestige of the Marquis of Garcia and the strength of the Black Cavalry have made the Duke of the North feel uneasy.
Even if Marquis Garcia is the younger brother of the Duke of the North,
But, in the face of power,
Let alone brothers,
Even father and son are unreliable.
A terrifying force such as the Black Cavalry can prevent the trolls from setting foot on the northern border, or it can sweep the northern territory and change the owner of Winter City.
Therefore, Marquis Garcia was transferred from the front line.
The Black Cavalry's sharp blade was also forced into its sheath.
It was Marquis Charles, the eldest son of the Duke of the North, who replaced him on the front line.
The Duke of the North clearly hopes that his son can take over this burden and grind out a powerful army for the North on the front line.
A direct army that truly belongs to the Saint Hilde family.
In order to balance the influence of Marquis Garcia.
Unfortunately, Marquis Charles wasn't able to complete this task.
He has been on the front line for three years, but after all, he still couldn't hold it.
The trolls came in.
Therefore, the Marquis of Garcia had to be used again.
But Colin was a little worried.
If the Marquis of Garcia lived up to expectations this time and once again defeated the invading trolls like he had repeated it countless times, then how would the Duke of St. Hilde reward meritorious officials?
The title is impossible to be promoted again.
When the Marquis goes up, it is the Duke.
In the north, there can only be one Duke.
As for the territory.
The size of the territory of Marquis Garcia now far exceeds the standard of a general Marquis.
Moreover, more territories mean more taxes and population, which also means greater military potential.
Although the Black Cavalry is powerful, it costs a lot to support it, so its scale has never exceeded 50,000.
But if you give it more nutrients and indulge it to continue to expand...
I am afraid it will be more difficult to deal with.
Thinking of this, Colin suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Vera's adoptive father.
Let the Black Cavalry come to the rescue, indicating that the situation on the front line is really critical, but it is inevitable that there is a bit of drinking poison to quench thirst.
Of course, if Colin knew that this time the Marquis of Garcia had sent troops privately, and he had not received the Duke's order, I am afraid he would be even more worried.
