    The military conflict between North Sunderland and Louren?o that lasted for several months finally came to an end under the order of the Holy See of Titan.  Because Rex's intelligence was conveyed in time, Lorenzo's Crossblade Legion on the front line had enough room and time to retreat, instead of retreating hastily as in history, and ultimately gave North Sunderland's  The army has an opportunity.  This military conflict, which involved a lot of manpower and material resources and will eventually go down in history, ended in a tie between the two sides. There was no winner or loser.  Some people have benefited from this, and some have paid a price, but the most injured are the ordinary people in the two kingdoms on the Iron Shoe Plain who have been affected by the war.  Wives and children are separated, families are destroyed, but no one cares about the life and death of this group of people at the bottom anymore.  One month after the military conflict ended, and on the 32nd day after leaving Sandshield City, Erwin and Susan finally passed through the huge river valley of Lorenzo and entered the hinterland of this powerful kingdom.  , although the scarcity of vegetation and the plain terrain make this country look a bit desolate everywhere, it is at least much better than the border.  Although the military conflict that occurred on the Iron Shoe Plain had a wide-ranging impact, the war only spread on the border. In the hinterland of the kingdom, except for the increase in refugees from the border, the smell of urgency and gunpowder smoke was no longer felt at all.  The cities we passed were also full of vitality and prosperity.  Erwin and Susan still have a long way to go. They need to pass through the territory of Lorenzo, enter the highway leading from the royal capital to the border, and then pass through two not-so-large countries before they can return to the south.  Because the journey was too long, the two of them had no need to rush. They walked slowly and leisurely along the way, while enjoying the exotic customs of the northern continent. This was a very rare enjoyment for the two of them.  It's just that this kind of tourist mentality sometimes makes the two of them encounter things like tonight. Because they didn't hire a guide, and they didn't carefully consider the itinerary and time, they sometimes missed the bustling cities along the way.  You can choose to stay overnight in more remote towns or villages.  When the two came to this small town called Massawa, the sky had darkened, and the setting sun left a bright red streak in the distant sky. In contrast, stars began to appear in the sky.  Massawa is located on a sloping hillside, outside a valley called Grove Valley. It is not large in scale, but there is still a small market in it. Fortunately, there are taverns and hotels in the market, which makes E  Irvine and Susan didn't have to spend the night in a villager's home.  After asking a farmer about the road, Erwin and Susan quickly arrived at the market. Needless to say, the dirty and messy environment was a mess. Some people coming and going also looked at the riders with strange eyes.  The two people wearing tall horses did not stay long.  This is not an overly remote Sand Shield City. Although Massawa is a small rural town, it is on the edge of a road where the main traffic is. There are not many caravans of travelers passing here every month, like Erwin and Susan.  It is also very common among young people.  The only places with lights on in the market were the tavern and the hotel, but the two were close to each other. When Erwin and Susan got off their horses and walked into the hotel, they naturally felt  It also attracted the attention of people in the nearby pub.  "Hey, did you see that girl just now is very good, her face, that figure, wow." In the tavern, among a group of people who were drinking, a man glanced at Susan who was walking into the hotel next to him, and suddenly looked like  He shouted to the people around him as if he had found something precious.  "She's from out of town. You can't find such a woman in Massawa." Another man also saw it. He touched his chin and asked the people around him: "Do you want to invite her over for a drink?  Maybe something interesting will happen. " Others started to cheer, but this group of people were just talking and didn't dare to actually go to the hotel to invite people out.  Naturally, Erwin and Susan didn't know that anyone was talking about them. After entering the hotel, a middle-aged man immediately ran out to entertain them.  But what left the two of them speechless was that there was only one room left in the hotel.  This is not a prosperous place, because there is a large city not far away. Many motorcades and travelers will try their best to get there before dark, so there is only this one in Massawa.  The hotel is over.  There are a total of five rooms in the hotel, two of which have been turned into storage rooms because they have been unoccupied all year round. The other two have already had guests, so only one is left. ?????????????????? One by one, Erwin and Susan have not experienced living in the same room, so after using the food sent by the hotel, the two of them returned to the room generously, intending to rest.  But soon the two of them discovered somethingLove is not that simple. Although I have had the experience of living in the same room, it has not always been like this. The two of them had slept separately a few months ago, and now they have to sleep together again. The feeling will naturally change.  There are very obvious changes.  For example, like now, the two of them have known each other for a long time, and there are always many topics to talk about. But when Erwin sat on one side of the narrow single bed and looked at Susan sitting on the other side, he suddenly realized  I became very clumsy and didn't know what to say.  And Susan was also silent, not knowing what to say. The two of them accidentally touched their eyes, and then avoided her with a guilty conscience. Erwin looked embarrassed and nervous, and Susan  A blush slowly appeared on his cheeks, and he lowered his head slightly as if he was shy.  Time passed like this minute by minute, and there seemed to be an atmosphere of charm and ambiguity rising between the two of them.  Erwin couldn't stand it. He looked at the time and found that it was still very early. Although the sky had completely darkened, it was only around seven o'clock in the night. After all, it was winter and night came early.  He coughed, then turned to look at Susan and asked: "Well, it's still early, do you want to go to the pub for a drink? I'll treat you." Both of them put their money on Susan, and Erwin was momentarily  Although she was nervous, she said something like "I'm a treat." Susan stared at him for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing. Her delicate and beautiful smile was like a spring flower, which made Erwin fascinated.  "What are you looking at? Let's go." Seeing Erwin looking at her in ecstasy, Susan, although her face was red, was still very happy in her heart and couldn't help but give him a light kick.  The two of them left the hotel and came to the nearby tavern.  There is only one floor of the tavern. Although the area is not small, the layout is very ordinary. It is simple and messy inside and out. Even the environment of the tavern in Sand Shield City looks much better than here.  But there was no choice. Erwin and Susan could only find a quieter place to sit down. Under the enthusiastic recommendation of the bartender, they ordered their Massawa specialty ale and appetizers.  As for the group of guys who had been discussing Erwin and Erwin from the beginning, they became quiet after seeing them come in. They all stared at the two of them, and soon gathered together to whisper and point at them from time to time.  Click, and then let out a loud laugh, as if he was telling a joke.  This group of people acted so obviously, and of course they didn't want others to notice. Erwin glanced at this group of people after entering the door. There were eight young people, two of whom were older. From their strong bodies and body  Judging from their clothing, these people should be hunters from Massawa.  Seeing that these hunters were just ordinary people, Erwin ignored their thoughts. Even if they were made a joke, as long as it was not said directly in front of him, Erwin was not so narrow-minded as to make him angry.  As for Susan, she used to travel to many places as a mercenary. Because she is a girl and a rare beautiful girl, she has already been made many verbal jokes. From the beginning, she would be angry and embarrassed, but now she is calm and composed.  , there are almost no unnecessary conflicts with others because of these trivial matters. But just because Erwin and Susan don¡¯t mind, it doesn¡¯t mean that the group of hunters will give up. Under the influence of alcohol, these guys started to act more and more unscrupulously.  He was spouting some non-vegetarian jokes or jokes, and it was obvious that he was making fun of Susan and Erwin.  As the saying goes, drunkenness makes people cowardly. If these hunters met Erwin or Susan, they would not go so far. After all, although they are young, they can tell from every aspect that they are mercenaries or Susan.  Adventurers are not something these town hunters can offend.  But most of them were already a little drunk now. One of the hunters finally stood up with a wine glass in his hand, and then walked toward Erwin and Susan with frivolous steps.  "Both of you are from out of town, right?" The hunter stood in front of Erwin and Susan's table, spoke with a mouth that smelled of alcohol, glanced at Erwin, and then fell on  Susan's eyes were staring at her beautiful face unscrupulously.  Erwin tapped the table with his fingers, attracting the hunter's attention. He looked at him and smiled: "Yes, we are from out of town. Do you have anything to do?" "Can't I talk to you if I have nothing to do?  ?¡± This hunter had no interest in Erwin, so he replied in a rude tone, and then turned to look at Susan: ¡°This beautiful girl, my name is Bernie, and my friends and I want to invite you.  How about having a drink and getting to know each other? "As the hunter spoke, he put the wine glass in his hand to Susan's face, as if he wanted to feed her the half-drunk wine in the glass with his own hands.  Susan frowned, she could no longer remember that she hadShe hadn't encountered this kind of thing for a long time, but she still remembered the last time a guy dared to touch her while he was drunk. In the end, her limbs were broken and he was thrown into a pit.  But now there was no need for Susan to take action. As soon as the hunter put the wine glass towards Susan's face, Erwin reached out and grabbed his arm, and then slowly pulled it back.  "How about I buy you a drink?" Erwin still looked at the hunter with a smile.  The hunter was stunned for a moment and tried to pull away, but Erwin's hand was as motionless as steel. He felt anxious and immediately shouted: "Let go, don't touch me with your dirty hands." At the same time, the other hand was about to  Swing it at Erwin's face.  Erwin's eyes were a little cold, and he pinched the hunter's arm slightly. With the terrifying quality of his body now, an ordinary person's body was no harder than bread to him.  He pinched lightly like this, and the hunter immediately screamed, and stopped trying to punch Erwin in the face. His slightly deformed hand could no longer hold the wine glass.  Erwin caught the dropped wine glass with one hand, and then poured it directly into the hunter's mouth that opened wide due to the scream.  At the same time, the wine glass came out of his hand and hit the hunter on the face, knocking him backwards and falling on his back.  Seeing this scene, a group of hunters over there who were about to watch the show were immediately stunned. The hunter named Bernie covered his face and fell to the ground. He kept screaming and screamed, which immediately woke them up. They all jumped out of their seats.  He stood up and rushed towards Erwin in a menacing manner.  Seeing this scene, Erwin let out a breath, looked at Susan and said, "I wouldn't have come if I had known it." "It's too late for you to regret it now." Susan suddenly smiled slyly, "I've left it all to you.  " "This is the first battle since the establishment of our Divine Fire Mercenary Group. Can you please be serious?" Erwin said speechlessly, although the group of hunters in front of him cannot be called an opponent at all.  While he was talking, the first hunter at the front had already raised his fist and struck Erwin.  "Forget it, just think of it as a warm-up after dinner." Two minutes later, Erwin threw eight hunters who were beaten unconscious outside the tavern, but as compensation for the heavy blow, Erwin was very  Generously paying for their drinks, the bartender hiding behind the counter looked at Erwin as if he were looking at some strange creature.  "I'm in a good mood, and I'm actually in the mood to fight." Just as Erwin waved his hands and was about to return to his seat, a very familiar voice suddenly came from the door of the tavern.  Erwin immediately turned around in surprise and saw the iconic black cloak and gray armor. Rex's stern face was still as cold as a snowy night, but there was a faint joy of reunion in the corners of his eyes.  A few minutes later, the three of them changed positions again. Erwin and Susan sat together, while Rex sat opposite them.  "Why did you come here?" Erwin couldn't help but ask, and he was actually a little happy about meeting Rex again.  After coming to the world of Elend, apart from Susan, Rex could be said to be his first acquaintance with whom he had a fairly good relationship. Their personalities were also compatible, and there was a faint tendency to develop into a friendship.  But while he was happy, Erwin also had a headache. If Rex still had the idea of ??letting Erwin help, then he might continue to be disappointed. After all, Rex came to Lorenzo with the intention of investigating.  Although Erwin had decided to cause trouble for the Yan cultists, he did so slowly and secretly when there were conditions and opportunities, rather than being as high-profile as Rex.  Sooner or later, he will be targeted by the final believers.  "Of course I came after that group of people. I'm not like you, so leisurely as if traveling." That group of people naturally refers to the people of the Final Cult, Rex said while taking a sip from the bartender who brought it to him.  The spicy liquid flowed from the throat into the abdomen, and the rising warmth dispelled the chill from traveling all night.  Two months ago in Sand Shield City, although many soldiers in the city defense army and the betrayal of Boruf deeply hurt them, Rex was not without gains, at least not every one of the followers of the Final Cult.  Not afraid of death at all.  As a result, Rex obtained some intelligence and information about the Final Cult. After dealing with the matters in Sand Shield City, he began to enter the kingdom of Lorenzo and began to investigate the Final Cult. However, he did not expect that it would be like this.  By chance, I met Erwin here.  "Are you having a problem? Why do you look so ugly?" Although Erwin asked this casually, he still had a lot of curiosity in his heart. Rex is a very confident and even a little arrogant person.  , there seems to be a way to deal with whatever happens.He felt confident, although in Susan's eyes, Erwin felt the same way, but he would never admit it.  But Rex, who was so confident, now looked very pale, his lips were bloodless, there was unconcealable fatigue between his brows, and his eyes showed confusion from time to time.  That¡¯s why Erwin was curious about what kind of problems or blows Rex encountered that led him to look like this.  But when he heard what Erwin said, Rex was suddenly shocked, and then he raised his head and looked at Erwin with disbelief: "I, I look very bad now?" "Of course, you  How long has it been since you looked in the mirror?" Erwin frowned. There was something wrong with Rex's appearance. The curiosity in his heart immediately turned into confusion and worry. He couldn't help but ask, "What problem have you encountered?  ?" Rex didn't seem to hear Erwin's words, but turned to look at Susan sitting next to Erwin, as if he was also seeking her opinion.  Susan pursed her lips and looked at Rex a few times, then nodded: "Your face is as bad as a zombie." Rex seemed to be caught in some chaos, staring at the table with wrinkled eyes.  His brows were beating and his lips were pursed tightly.  Seeing his appearance, Erwin and Susan looked at each other, and both saw the confusion in each other's eyes. Susan opened her mouth to say something to Rex, but Erwin reached out to stop him.  She said: "Interrupt him first." After a long while, Rex looked up at Erwin and Susan, and said something that shocked the two of them.
