"It's the adults who are back!"
"My lord is back! Open the city gate quickly!"
When Nalant and others returned to the castle, it was already dawn.
The moment the guards on the castle saw Nalant, they all screamed in surprise.
Seeing that the castle was safe and sound, Nalant finally felt relieved.
Although Dark Creature besides Wheat Leaf Village was not as dangerous as the group they encountered, because Vivian only had extraordinary combat power, Nalant was still a little worried when he returned.
"Sir! Thank you for your hard work! Welcome back to the castle!" As the city gate opened, Nalant entered the castle first. Thomas had already been waiting here with his servants.
When he stopped his horse, the servants immediately brought him hot water and towels.
"Well, where is Vivian?" He rubbed his face with a towel, and his fatigue immediately dissipated a lot. Nalant then looked around. He needed to ask about Vivian Wheat Leaf Village's battle situation.
"Sir... Wuwu... You are finally back!" However, before Thomas could reply, a figure quickly flashed over and threw himself into Nalant's arms.
"Sherry, what's wrong?"
"Sir, there are so many Dark Creatures from Wheat Leaf Village tonight, it's so scary! And sister Vivian is even injured!" Sherry choked with sobs, obviously the wave of Dark Creatures tonight frightened her.
"Injured!" Nalant was shocked, and at this time, Vivian happened to come out of the inner castle. Seeing this, Nalant felt a little relieved.
"Sir, you are back!" Wei Wei'an's arm was wrapped in a large circle of white cloth, and blood could still be seen on it.
"Vivian, what happened to your arm?"
"Sir, I was just scratched by Hellhound, no bones were hurt! It doesn't matter!"
It turns out that although there are barbarians in the battle outside Wheat Leaf Village tonight, the battle is still extremely fierce.
Especially Headless Knight and Hellhound brought a lot of threats to everyone.
Headless Knight was better, because with the big guy Raymond around, and trenches dug around the arrow tower, they couldn't break through the defense.
The problem lies with Hellhound. Other Dark Creature cannot pass through a trench more than two meters wide, but Hellhound can.
After several Hellhound crossed the trench, they climbed directly onto the arrow tower to attack Longbowman.
Vivian was one of the targets of the attack. Because the distance was too close, his arm was hit by Hellhound's claws.
Fortunately, Vivian reacted quickly. After being clawed, he immediately shot an arrow at Hellhound's head, thus resolving the crisis.
Nalant felt distressed after hearing this, and also had lingering fears.
If Vivian were in danger, it would be too late for him to regret it.
After leaving the matters in the courtyard to Thomas and saying hello to Boris, Nalant took Vivian to the hall and asked Wheat Leaf Village about the results of tonight's battle.
Through Vivian's report, Nalant learned that Wheat Leaf Village's results tonight were no worse than theirs.
Thanks to the horse trap arranged by Nalant in advance, Wheat Leaf Village's Headless Knight also failed to take advantage of the war horse and fell off the horse early.
Because of the existence of barbarians, although the number of Skeleton Soldier was large and the battle was fierce, the losses were not large.
Therefore, apart from the thrilling scene brought about by Hellhound, this battle was simply uneventful compared to what Nalant and the others experienced.
The final battle damage situation is that no one was killed or seriously injured. Including Vivian, Wheat Leaf Village only had more than 20 lightly wounded people.
Of course, the reason why the loss was so small was that the bravery of Raymond also played a crucial role.
With the big shield and brand-new giant ax built for him by Nalant, Raymond is simply a god in the battle, entering and exiting three times in the Dark Creature group.
After several Headless Knight lost their horses, they were all killed by him alone with the help of a huge shield.
In addition, it also benefits from the physical advantages of the barbarians themselves.
Most of the injured barbarians tonight were shot by skeleton archers. However, because the barbarians are strong and muscular, it doesn't matter at all as long as the arrows don't hit their vital points.
After Nalant heard this, he immediately remembered the barbarian who was shot by Vivian outside Misfortune Village last time. After being shot with an arrow, the guy just staggered, and then continued to charge towards him with his weapon raised like a normal person.
While being captured, that guy miraculously survived without having to worry about any wound infection. This was much stronger than ordinary people.
"Hmm! Nalant, what is this and why is it so delicious?" Nalant Castle was in the vestibule at noon the next day.
The vestibule was very lively at this time, with long tables placed there, and the long tables were surrounded by guards who were shiny with food.
Boris and Nalant were sitting at a table alone. After eating a delicacy they had never seen before, they immediately opened their eyes and asked Nalant.
"This is called grilled oyster. It is my Storm Territory specialty. Boris. How do you feel?"
"Grilled oysters? This is so delicious! Nalant, how on earth did you do it, and why are all your Storm Territory delicacies so delicious and unique!" Boris was full of jealousy, asking, without pausing at all, reaching out to the table again to pick up the next oyster.
"This... I actually read a cooking book before and learned it from it!" Nalant replied seriously.
"Cooking books? Nalant You are still reading this!" Boris exclaimed, "However, it seems that reading more books is indeed very useful, such as the book "Nicholas Sun Wu's Battle Methods". I will definitely look for it after I go back this time to take a good look."
"Ahem... then I wish Boris you can get what you want!" Nalant coughed twice, paused before continuing, "Boris, are you sure you don't want to play with Storm Territory for two more days?"
"No, Nalant, it's already the fourth day since I left Black Rock Territory, and most of the guards in the territory have been brought here by me. Now you have nothing else to do here. I will set off to return after the celebration banquet is over!"
"Okay, then next time Boris you come back Storm Territory, you are always welcome to my castle as a guest!" Nalant did not force it.
"Haha, just because of these delicious grilled oysters and the fragrant Cream Cake, I will definitely come here often?" Boris said with a smile, "By the way, Nalant, have you received the invitation to Miss Stella's birthday party?"
"Well, I've received it!"
"Then let's go to Tulip City together! Nalant Since you have participated in this competition, you should be more careful about the gifts. I heard that the other second sons are actively preparing for this time and want to perform well!"
"But, to be honest, among the several knights competing, I am most optimistic about you Nalant!"
After this experience, Boris really regarded Nalant as an ally, and no longer only wanted to benefit from Nalant in the past.
Therefore, he also very much looks forward to Nalant winning the competition.
Everyone else thought Nalant was the second son of a waste, but Boris now understands that whoever treats Nalant as a waste is a fool.
Next, Nalant and Boris chatted while eating and drinking, and agreed to go to Tulip City together at the end of this month. When they were almost done eating, Boris took his guards and said goodbye to Nalant, and set off back to Black Rock Territory.
