Chapter 289 Ross's injustice stems from Ash's past
Chapter 289 Rose’s injustice stems from Ash’s past
After finishing all this, Ash decided to continue sleeping, and now sleep became his only pleasure.
But communications from Lothric forced Ash to deal with the matter.
White light flashed, and a list appeared in front of Ash. This was the list of Lothrik knights who were about to participate in the war. They were all the elites of the Fire Sect.
But Ash still found a special name among them, Thaddeus E. Ross.
Rose, Ash's old superior, actually appears in the battle list of the Lothric Knights? This shows that Rose has not only been recognized by the Lothric Knights, but has also achieved a vital position among them.
This kind of thing has to be said to have attracted Ash's interest.
——————
Back in time, ever since the night of the green-fat duel, when Ash handed Rose the symbol of the Lothric Knight Sword, Rose had pushed everything to Sheffield and his own staff.
That night, according to the time given by Ash, Rose took his luggage and the Lothrik Knight Sword and walked out of his house.
The knight's sword in Rose's hand was seen emitting a faint white light, flashing like a beacon. The Lothrik Dragoon, who could teleport over long distances, followed the guidance and came to Rose's side.
Everyone looked at Rose wearing a field military uniform and carrying a backpack, but the Lothric knight didn't have a good attitude when he saw Rose.
After the three of them examined Ross, the leading gun and shield knight said: "Put down your backpack, you don't need these items at your destination..."
The knight's business-oriented attitude did not surprise Ross. After all, the most annoying thing in the military system is the connections. This unique existence often breaks the original discipline.
Ross didn't object, he just threw down his luggage and waited for arrangements with his knight's sword. Ross was also a soldier, so he still understood the meaning of discipline.
Seeing Rose throw away his luggage, three Lothrik knights surrounded Rose. The sword and shield knights directly grabbed Rose's arm to prevent him from moving at will.
As the Lothric knight's flag gun was waved, the four people were enveloped in white-gold light, a ball of white light flashed, and the four people disappeared in place.
The feeling of crossing time and space, for Ross, he just saw the white light flashing, and then appeared on another land, without any weightlessness or other strange feelings.
Ross observed the environment here. When he looked up, he saw another continent overlapping his head. In his example, Ross could even see large creatures crawling on the opposite continent.
Just as Ross was observing the surrounding environment, a Losric knight came here, but the cloak behind him was blue.
"Okay, leave him to me and I'll train him..."
"Okay, Knight Commander!"
The knights who received Rose saluted the knight commander and then left. The knight commander walked around Rose and observed him, making a sound of admiration.
Ross just stood at attention, without any words or unnecessary movements. He knew that if the related households could not abide by the rules in remote areas, they would be ostracized.
The knight commander looked at Rose and asked: "Ash sent you here, do you have anything to ask? Or do you need something?"
Ross seemed to have returned to his youth when he first joined the army. After saluting the knight commander, he said: "I don't need anything. I came here to receive training. There is one question - where is this place."
The knight commander did not expect Ross to be so disciplined, and the scarlet eyes vaguely visible from his helmet became gentle.
The Knight Commander said: "This is the center of the earth, the sky you see is the crust, and this is the new camp of the Lothrik Legion. We need to capture some animals that can help us here..."
Ross was a little stunned. He originally thought it would be in some other dimension, but he didn't expect it to be in the center of the earth.
The knight commander noticed Rose's surprise, patted him on the shoulder in a friendly manner and said: "Let's go, let's go to the camp first..."
The knight commander took the lead, and Ross could only follow him closely. According to Ross's opinion, the camp should be established in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The foothills in the opposite direction were the best choice, but the knight commander led him into A dense forest.
The road in the forest was not an easy journey for the elderly Ross, but the knight commander leading the way kept moving at a constant speed without any pause.
Ross, who couldn't help but gasp, saw that there were not even any footprints of the knight commander left on the grass, as if the armor was nothing to him.
Looking at the muddy road behind him, Ross caught up with him in one breath.
Passing through the woodland, we came to a lake. This was the camp of the Lothric Legion. The surrounding trees were used to build a simple defense against horses, but the horses were a little too big.
The knight commander did not take Ross directly into the camp. When he came to the lake, the knight commander took out a giant longbow. The design of the recurve bow was just that metal was fixed on the bow arm to enhance its strength.
[Dragoon Bow: A long bow that serves the dragon knight who longs for the ancient king. The ancient king requires that the dragoon as a guard must have considerable strength. If you only have the strength of an ordinary person, you cannot draw this bow. Only those with strength can Only then can they have the power to kill. Dragoons usually cooperate with their flying dragon partners and use powerful arrows that are enough to hunt ancient dragons. However, flying dragons cannot withstand the passage of time, but the dragon cavalry's equipment has been retained.】
After the knight commander put the giant arrow that could be called a siege spear on the bowstring, he turned to look at Ross and asked: "Where is the most dangerous place here?"
After quickly searching the surroundings, Ross only saw a lush giant tree on the opposite side of the lake, and then he couldn't find any creatures. The only thing that was dangerous was the lake, and there might be some kind of creature hidden in it.
Seeing Rose staring at the lake, the knight commander let out a contemptuous 'cut' sound.
The knight drew his bow, pointed at the giant tree across the lake, and said, "Don't believe what you see with your eyes here."
After saying that, the knight commander released the bow string, and the big arrow broke through the sound barrier directly on the spot and flew towards the opposite side.
Even with the supersonic attack, it took several seconds to cross the kilometers-wide lake, allowing Ross to clearly see how the target was killed.
I saw the big arrow hitting the giant tree, and a shock wave visible to the naked eye was generated, and then the entire tree exploded.
The branches and leaves on the original tree were destroyed in the explosion, and only a few lucky ones escaped death.
Only then did Ross discover that these creatures were flying creatures with natural biological camouflage. Their wings were blade-shaped, and the heads connected to their slender necks seemed to have stabbing spears protruding forward.
The knight commander retracted his bow and arrow and said: "This is a leaf pterosaur, a creature as annoying as a mosquito. Today is an exception. From now on, the mosquitoes around the camp will be left to you."
This show of force reminded Ross of his recent responsibilities. From a visual inspection, these creatures with a wingspan of nearly two meters should not be vegetarians.
Arriving at the camp, after the knight commander assigned the house to Ross, he gave him another task before he had time to rest.
The knight commander said: "There is not enough drinking water in the camp now. You go and fill the drinking water barrels in the camp. Today's mission is completed..."
Ross didn't waste any time. He saluted to the knight commander and found the so-called drinking water buckets according to the camp division he just noted down. Looking at these buckets that were more than two stories high, Ross sighed silently.
As a soldier, he can only obey orders. Fortunately, there are water pipes and manual pressure equipment, so he does not have to carry buckets to fill them again and again.
Everyone else in the camp was looking at this new guy, but no one communicated with him or came to help.
This unique unity and cohesion made Ross more determined to stay here.
There is a small puddle next to the large lake outside the camp. This is formed by the water from the lake seeping out and collecting. Because it is filtered by sand and gravel, it is usually cleaner than the water in the lake.
Now you just need to drain the water in the puddle and see if it can fill up again to determine whether it is living water.
Ross pulled the water pipe and stepped closer to the puddle. Just when it was about to jump in, an inexplicable warning from his nerves made him stop.
'Here, don't believe what your eyes see.'
The knight commander's words instantly awakened Ross. This was a trap!
After taking two hurried steps back, Ross looked back and found that a small group of Lothric knights were holding weapons and waiting to take action. As long as he was in danger, this small group had the ability to snatch Ross' life in the face of death.
"The newcomer did not step in. The Knight Commander's trick failed. There is no need to keep this food. Brothers, kill it!"
The first person to rush into the puddle was the gun and shield knight. He directly pressed his rectangular shield into it.
There is food caught in the trap, and Himida under the puddle is about to close its mouthparts and prepare to swallow the Gun Shield Knight.
However, Himida's predatory characteristics caused it to rush out of the ground directly, and before it could close its mouthparts, the Sword and Shield Knight who appeared out of nowhere chopped them off with the Lothric Knight Sword.
And the sword and shield knight appeared under the gun and shield knight, using his luan-shaped shield to provide support for the gun and shield knight.
I saw the Gun Shield Knight inserting the knight's spear into Ximida's head, and then using force to directly pick it out of the soil.
Shimida had just landed, and the wet ground flew everywhere. Before Ross could confirm Shimida's length, a man holding a knight's sword appeared on Shimida's head, and raised his weapon to directly hit it.
The head was chopped off.
This smooth luring of the enemy to kill made Rose sure that this was not the first time they had done this, and that this giant beast was specifically staying here to wait for him.
Rose's eyes were full of desire, and he felt more and more that this was a training that absolutely could not fail.
Regardless of the trouble in the camp, Ross filled all the buckets according to the knight commander's needs. When he dragged his exhausted body to his residence, he found that the knight commander was waiting for him here.
The knight commander said: "How are you? Can you adapt to this place? If not, I will send you away immediately..."
"No need, I will stay here forever..."
The concern shown by the knight commander at this moment made Ross understand that in the entire camp, only the one in front of him was targeting him.
What happened to him was entirely due to his anger, and he didn't know what Ash had done to him in the first place.
Now in this private environment, Ross was not afraid of being overheard by others, so he asked: "Can you tell me about the conflict between Ash and you..."
After hearing Rose's words, the red light under the knight commander's helmet became even brighter. And his hand couldn't help but touch the back of his waist.
The Knight Commander said: "I don't have much conflict with Ash. On the contrary, he is our superior now. It's just that he stabbed me on the high wall of Lothrik while I wasn't paying attention..."
