Lord Helanza

Surdak walked out of the Knight regiment in Helanza and saw that the young nobleman was still waiting on the bench across the street, so he led the horse and walked over and extended the hand to the young nobleman , Said very politely: "Surdak! Thank you for your help!"

"Carl Casement. You can call me Karl." The young nobleman introduced himself quite formally, and then tried again. Ask Surdak: "Will you settle in Helanza city from now on?"

"There is no such plan for the time being." Surdak smiled faintly to Karl and said.

Two people walked out along the narrow alley. The stone walls on both sides of the alley were full of mottled marks, and some purple moss grew in some dark places. It seems that this place is indeed remote enough. Fortunately, Carl was very familiar with this area, and he walked back into the circular garden after only a round.

Seeing that he is so familiar with this place, Surdak hesitated for a while, thinking that his way home has not yet settled, so he asked:

"Karl, you know Where is Wall Village? I was brought out by the elders in the village five years ago. I think I probably can't find my way home."

"I don't know!" Carl. Casement said very bastardly.

"..."

I haven't waited for Surdak to react.

Carl’s conversation turned, and he looked at Surdak with a smile, and said: "But I know who of us knows these villages best, the tax officer in charge of the area outside the city, I have a little friendship with them. We were drinking together last night, I can take you to find them to find out."

When he squinted, those eyes looked like the kind of feminine ones. Peach blossom eyes.

When he looks at the other person, he always feels that he is smiling.

"Many thanks." Surdak saluted Carl again.

Carl. Casement waved his hand indifferently, with a hint of slyness hidden in his smile, and said to Surdak, "You are welcome, since you are our Knight, we will have more places to deal with in the future! There may be many places where you are needed. Help."

Surdak immediately tapped his chest with his hands, and said to Carl: "As long as there is a need for me, just give me orders."

The chat was very speculative on the road, and Carl led the way, re-circled back to the main street, and then walked up the street.

Obviously Karl is the local tyrant of Helanza City. When passing by the main street, the vendors along the street will take the initiative to stand up straight from the stalls, moved towards Karl and salute him.

This mountain city is not too big. Two people crossed the main street to the door of Helanza City Hall. The guard at the door also saluted Carl Casement.

Carl asked the guard at the entrance of the city hall very well: "Is the tax officer Bird coming?"

"Master Carl, the tax officer Bird morning I have come and haven't left yet." The guard at the gate of the city hall replied.

Carl nodded, asked Surdak to hand the horse to the guard at the door, and then led him into the city hall of Helanza.

The city hall of Helanza City looks a little shabby. From the outside, it looks just a 2-Layer small building. The exterior walls of the building are only painted with some white paint, and the pointed roof is a bit Gothic. , Walked into the lobby on the first floor of the city hall, there were only a few clerks working in the lobby, and the lobby looked cold and cheerless, and no one was doing any business here.

Seeing Surdak walk in, every clerk looked eager and expectant, but when they saw Carl who was with them, they showed disappointment.

Carl smiled hehe and waved to the clerks, and then took Surdak directly to the second floor.

Tax Officer Bird is a middle age person with a beer belly. When the two pushed the door and walked in, the Lord Bird was standing by the window and looking down. Surdak followed Bird’s Looking towards the street, she happened to see a plump noble lady coming out of the shop at the street, twisting her fat ass like a big white goose, and boarding the carriage.

Master Bird's'tsk tsk' smacked his lips and looked at the lady with envy, but he didn't notice the two people walking into the room.

When he turned around, he was surprised when he found two people standing in the room.

His face flushed, probably because someone had peeped into his secret, he stared at Karl with some disbelief, probably complaining that he broke in without knocking.

However, Carl didn’t care about this. He turned to Surdak and said, “Besides this guy Byrd, he is pretty reliable in doing other things, but I’m right. You have reservations about your aesthetics, Bird!"

"Carl, why do you come to me in time?" The tax official sat at the desk, a little embarrassed, and asked pretendingly. road.

Carl is also welcome, and directly talked about Surdak's troubles.

"Wal village? Of course I know that taxation there has always been my responsibility. Are you Knight who walked out of that village?" The tax officer Bird looked at Surdak seriously, probably thinking From the face of Surdak, he can tell which child he is.

Unfortunately, after watching for a long time, I didn’t tell the difference. In the end, he could only give up. Then he thought of a frustrating thing and began to complain in the office:

"This means that there is one less place where I collect taxes. In the past two years, it seems that a lot of new Knights have popped up in Helanza!"

"A lot of deaths..." Carl added casually.

Tax Officer Byrd sighed and cursed "Damn war of planes."

Then the Tax Officer Byrd asked Surdak curiously: "Then Surdak Knight, do you follow? Which adult?"

Obviously he is very familiar with the nobles in Helanza, otherwise it is impossible to ask such a question.

"Master Mond Goss." Surdak quickly got up from his chair and answered.

The Tax Officer Byrd quickly motioned to Surdak to sit down and poured him a cup of lemon tea. While adding sugar to Surdak’s cup, he asked:

"I heard that Lord Earl was here The Warsaw plane was defeated, and the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment was almost lost."

The news of the defeat of the Mo Yun Mountain Range battle at Surdak didn't expect to reach Helanza so quickly, he said seriously:

"There are not many companions who survived the battle of Mo Yun Mountain Range. I was probably the only one in the sixth platoon. I happened to be out on a mission that day and didn't fight on the front line, so I survived... "

Surdak was indeed out at the time, but not on a mission.

It’s just that Bajiale Swordsman fills in Surdak’s retirement resume: Surdak was ordered to escort Baron Sidney’s Fiancee Hathaway and members of the high level Swordsman Academy back to Handanal, so they missed the game. The failed battle.

The tax officer Bird did not question Surdak's explanation, nodded, with a sad expression on his face.

In the past four years of Surdak's military service, many things have been written on the resume. These files will always remain on the military headquarters. These are well documented.

Carl also sat in the chair next to him, curl one's lip said: "Last week I received the sad news that two cousins ​​were killed in battle, and now I dare not look at my aunt's distressed face... "

The tax officer Byrd said angrily: "The damn war on the plane, I don't know how long it will take to end."

Carl Casement is probably in the city. After staying here for too long, he said to Surdak, "Would you like me to accompany you to the village of Wall? It would be boring to stay in the city anyway."

At this time, Tax Officer Byrd But he waved his hand to Carl, then patted his beer belly, and said: "Carl, there is nothing to go to that village. I just want to collect taxes for the next season. Let me accompany Surdak Knight. ."
