Chapter 553 Gervis’s bragging!
One day later, outside the gate of an open valley, Gervis looked up at the steep mountain in front of him, and felt that the terrain of this world was somewhat unreasonable.
There are flat plains all around, but there are three towering peaks rising from the ground like thrones, as if they were specifically built to protect the valley.
"Who are you!"
Just when Gervis was marveling at the wonders of the Creator, dozens of humans on duty at the entrance in front of the valley discovered his figure. In the moonlight, they could vaguely see that Gervis was alone and not as strong as the orcs, so they asked Gervis loudly.
"My name is Harry! I'm the guard of Master Lachi from the Holy City of Heka! Can you let me in? Or help me notify Master Lachi, I'd be very grateful!"
Gervis did not say that he was a magician, because although his clothes had been changed, they were still the guard armor he picked up from the roadside.
If he were to say he was a magician while dressed like that, his superiors would think he had bad intentions.
Since encountering that small group of orcs yesterday, Gervis has secretly passed through at least three orc defense lines, leaving human and orc corpses everywhere along the way.
At this time, his appearance had changed back to Harry's. Gervis guessed that as long as nothing unexpected happened to Lach and the others, they must be in this valley.
Because judging from the distribution of the orcs, they have already surrounded all humans.
"People from the Holy City of Heka? Wait a minute!"
Apparently, the name of the Holy City of Heka is still quite useful. After hearing what Gervis said, the duty officer said something and went to report.
Gervis waited outside the valley for about ten minutes. After more than ten minutes, he finally saw several people holding deep-sea pearls walking to the gate of the valley.
"Harry?"
The first voice Gervis heard was Lach's, and there was a hint of surprise in Lach's words.
"Master Lachi, it's me! I escaped after stopping the orcs!"
"It's really you! Great! Harry, wait a moment, I'll ask them to open the door now!"
Lach confirmed Gervis's identity and immediately asked the guard to open the door to let Gervis in.
…
"Master Harry! So glad to see you back!"
"Haha! Harry, it's great to have you back. Thanks to you, we were able to escape the orcs' pursuit that time!"
When Gervis entered from the half-open valley gate, Laci, Adela and others stood behind the door waiting.
When several people saw Gervis, they looked at him carefully and expressed their congratulations.
Laci and Adela were so happy that their joy was beyond words. It was obvious that the two of them were the ones who cared most about Gervis' safe return.
"Oh, right! Harry, how did you do it? You haven't come back for so many days, I thought you..."
After congratulating Gervis, Lach led Gervis into the passage at the entrance of the valley, asking curious questions as they walked.
"It was thanks to the blessing of the God of Glory that I only lasted about five minutes after you left that day before my magic power was exhausted. Then I was ready to use the forbidden spell scroll that Miss Adela gave me to die together with the orcs."
"But at this moment, a knight wearing silver armor suddenly appeared from the west of the ruins. He was extremely powerful, and he was not afraid of hundreds of orcs at all!"
"This titled knight fought with the orcs for more than ten minutes, and finally killed the orc shaman, which frightened the orc warriors and made them flee. That's how I was lucky enough to survive."
Gervis had already thought of his speech, and immediately began to speak according to the words he had prepared in advance.
Anyway, there were only orcs and themselves there at that time, and it was impossible for Adela and the others to go to the orcs to verify.
As for whether Lachi and the others would believe it, that was not within the scope of consideration.
It was easier to believe that an unexpected strong man appeared than that a small apprentice magician like himself could defeat the orcs.
As long as I don't meet the birdman as Harry next time, there shouldn't be any problem.
"Grevith, what's the name of that title knight? What family is he from?"
Lachi asked curiously.
"Master Lachi, I also asked about it at that time, but that person never told me from beginning to end. He just said something incomprehensible: The Crimson Moon appears, and the Orc Cataclysm will occur!"
There's no tax on bragging anyway, and this brag is based on his real identity, so Gervis simply raised his own status.
"The Crimson Moon appears, and the Orc Cataclysm occurs!"
Although Laci also found it puzzled, after all, there was no such thing as the Scarlet Moon in the Holy Continent.
But after repeating it silently several times, Laci discovered that this sentence was really full of lofty meaning.
Not only Laci, but Adela was also wondering who the Silver Knight was.
The magician's tower is restricted to those above the golden knight level, but the titled knight in silver armor can take the head of the shaman among hundreds of orcs.
This is really hard to believe, not to mention that he left such a puzzling sentence, which makes the title knight even more mysterious.
Seeing that Laci and the others had fallen silent and were thinking seriously, Gervis suppressed his smile and continued walking.
Just at this moment, Gervis suddenly remembered something, so he turned his gaze to Adela and said to her with an apologetic look.
"Miss Adela, I have something to apologize to you for!"
"What's the matter, Master Harry?"
Adela, who was thinking, was stunned when she heard Gervis's solemn words. Her expression was a little confused. She didn't understand why Gervis wanted to apologize to her.
"It's like this. Although the forbidden scroll you gave me that day was not opened, the titled knight came to my side after driving away the orcs. When he saw the scroll in my hand, he directly asked for it, saying that it was a reward for saving my life."
"Although I am very reluctant, after all, this scroll has not been used yet, and it should be returned to you, Miss Adela, but that Knight in Silver Armor saved me, and he is very powerful, so I can't get the Forbidden Spell Scroll back."
Gervis's face was filled with guilt, and he did not look like a triumphant hero at all.
"Oh! The Forbidden Spell Scroll! Master Harry, don't take it to heart. Although the Forbidden Spell Scroll is precious, it is worth exchanging it for the lives of our group of people!"
Adela instantly remembered her forbidden spell scroll and a sweet smile immediately appeared on her face. She didn't mind at all that Gervis had lost the scroll.
"But……"
"Harry! Adela said it's okay, so it's okay! You didn't do it on purpose, don't think too much about it!"
"Come on, we'll soon reach the valley. I'll treat you to a good meal. You must have not had enough rest on the way here!"
Lachi quickly patted Gervis, who was about to say something else, and interrupted him.
When Lachi saw the new armor on Gervis, he knew that Gervis must have suffered a lot along the way.
Laci could also guess the origin of the armor. It must have been picked up from the corpses on the roadside. They also saw many human corpses when they came.
When Laci interrupted him, Gervis knew it was almost time.
The play had reached this point, and if it were to be performed any further it would be a bit exaggerated, so he immediately walked down the stairs and nodded silently in approval.
At this time, they finally arrived inside the valley and walked out of the entrance passage which was hundreds of meters long but only tens of meters wide.
As the scenery ahead suddenly became clear, when Gervis's eyes fell into the valley, he was instantly shocked by the scene in front of him.
Please allow me to correct the typos later! I will continue writing first!
My computer broke down today, so all the words I had typed and the chapters I had published were scrapped.
It will be troublesome to check previous settings or characters in the future... It's so depressing!
