Chapter 145 Chapter 145 The Brave Queen

"I don't use it because it's not good. I can now tell you what I said before, it... changes you. If you can't give in to it, let it live with you every moment, and you can't even ignore it. When it is, at least don't seek it, don't become..." "Burrich?" We both jumped up.It turned out that Fox Mitt came out quietly from the darkness and was standing on the other side of the campfire at the moment.How many conversations did she get into? "What's the matter? Is there a problem?" Crouching in the dark, she raised her red-gloved hands to the campfire for warmth, and sighed. "I don't know how I should ask this question? Do you guys know she's pregnant?"

Burrich and I looked at each other. "Who?" he asked calmly. "I have two small children myself, and her bodyguards are mostly women. She throws up every morning, lives on raspberry tea, and gets nauseous when she sees salted fish. She shouldn't have stayed here like this Day." Fox Mitten nodded towards the tent. O Queen of Valor. Shut up. "She didn't ask our opinion," Burrich said carefully. "The situation here is under control, there is no reason not to send her back to Buckkeep." Fox Glove said calmly. "I can't imagine 'sending her' anywhere," Burrich said. "I think it's up to her to decide."

"You can advise her." Fox Mitt suggested further. "You can too," Burrich replied. "You are the captain of the guards, so this should be your concern." "I don't keep watch at her door every night." Fox Glove objected. "Perhaps you should," Burrich said, and softened the mood with a "now you know." Fox Mitt stared at the campfire. "Perhaps I should. So now the question is, who will accompany her back to Buckkeep?" "Of course, all her personal bodyguards. The queen should be escorted by these people, and there must be no one less."

Suddenly there was a cry in the darkness, and I jumped to my feet. "Get on your feet!" Burrich suddenly grabbed me tightly, "Wait for instructions first, don't act rashly before you figure out what's going on!" After a while, the queen's guard whistle came to our campfire, and stood before the fox gloves to report. "There were troops attacking the beach under the South Tower in two directions, trying to break through the siege, and some people passed through..." An arrow shot through her, and we never heard what she was trying to tell us next.There was a sudden attack on us from the Outer Islands, more numerous than I had imagined, and they were all congregating towards the Queen's tent. "Go save the queen!" I yelled, slightly pleased that my cries reached the back of the line.Three guards rushed out of the tent to meet it at the flimsy parapet, while Burrich and I stood in front of the tent.I reached out to raise my sword, and out of the corner of my eye I saw Burrich's silhouette glow red with fire.At this time, the queen suddenly appeared at the door of the tent.

"Leave me alone!" she scolded us. "Go where there is a fight." "Here is the battle, my queen," Burrich muttered as he lunged forward to block an enemy who was too close, and cut off an arm. I remember those words well, and I remember Burrich's big step.This is the only memory I have of that night, followed by bouts of swords and swords and constant shouting and bloodshed.The soldiers and robbers around me fought each other desperately, and waves of emotions hit my heart.Before this, someone had set fire outside the tent, and the towering flames lit up the battle scene, which looked like the scene of a stage play.I still remember seeing Kettricken tying her robes with rope, fighting barefoot on the frozen ground with her bare calves, her ridiculously long mountain sword in both hands, gracefully dancing the deadly dance of battle. , this scene would have distracted me at any other moment.

Outer Islanders keep showing up.I'm sure I heard Verity yell for orders at some point, but couldn't understand what he was saying.Nighteyes also appeared from time to time, always fighting on the edge of the fire, and saw a ball of hair with teeth that was lying on the ground suddenly jump up, rush out and bite off the robber's heel, and then put the weight on the robber The robbers who had been charging into the battle tripped over their bodies.Burrich and the Fox Mitt fought back to back when our side was in dire straits, and I thought I was in the circle defending the queen, at least I thought so, until I realized she was already beside me It's time to fight.

At some point I dropped my sword and grabbed the ax of a dead robber, only to retrieve it from the cold ground the next day, covered in mud and blood.I did not hesitate to cast aside Verity's gift for a more brutal and effective weapon during the fight, because only the present is in the fight.When the battle situation finally turned around, I chased and killed the scattered and fleeing enemies without thinking, and shuttled through the burned ruins of Jieyiwan Village under the night sky. Nighteyes and I do hunt together seamlessly here.Me and my last enemy went hand-to-hand, killing each other with axes, while Nighteyes snarled and slammed the sword of one of the smaller robbers, taking out his foe seconds before I could finish him off. enemy.

This last carnage was a wild and brutal joy to me.I don't know where Nighteyes stopped killing and where I continued, but I remember we were victorious and we were both alive.Afterwards, we looked for water together, and then we used the buckets of the public well to fetch several buckets of water to drink. I also washed the blood on my hands and face, and then we leaned against the well made of bricks, watching the sun rise from the mist. Diffuse flats rise.Nighteyes leaned against me warmly, and we didn't think about anything at the time. I think I dozed off for a while at that point, then woke up as it quickly left me.I looked up to see what was frightening it, only to find a terrified Jieyiwan girl staring at me.Her hairline gleamed with the morning light, and she carried a bucket in her hand.I stood up and smiled at her, and raised my ax to say hello, but she ran away like a frightened rabbit, and fled into the ruins.I stretched and walked back to the queen's tent through the dissipating mist, reminded of last night's hunt with Nighteyes.These memories are too fresh, full of blood and darkness, and I push them deep into my heart.Could this be what the Burrich alert meant?

Even in broad daylight like this, it's hard to understand what's going on.The queen's tent had long since been burned, and the soil around the charred wreckage had been trampled into a ball of mud. This was the place where the fighting was most intense, and where the number of robbers killed in battle was the largest.Some of the bodies were dragged aside and piled up, while others lay where they were.I averted my eyes from them. It was one thing to kill an enemy out of fear and anger, but it was quite another to reflect on the fruits of my kill in the gray and cold morning light.

It is understandable that the outer islanders try to break through our siege.They may also have a chance to close in on their ships and recover a ship or two.However, their attack on the queen's tent is incredible. Why not take advantage of the situation and return to the beach after completing the mission on the ground? "Perhaps," Burrich said through clenched teeth as I went over his more swollen leg wound, "they didn't want to run away at all. It's the way of the Out Islanders, determined to fight to the death and then wreak as much havoc as possible, That's why I thought of coming here to kill our queen."
