Chapter 10: 010 Mirror Lake 1

“Are you willing to be mercenaries for the rest of your lives?

“Are you willing to live a life where you are constantly on the brink of death?

“Are you willing to fight for money in place of honor?

“Right now, there is an opportunity in front of you!

“An opportunity to change your fate!

“An opportunity to make a name for yourself!

“A chance for you to get rid of your status as commoners, become nobles, and even be awarded a fief!

“So, take your swords and follow me, Marquis Charles, the St. Hilde family, and defeat the trolls!”

Looking at the mercenaries who were excited by the speech, Colin suddenly smiled and said to Oliver beside him,

“You don’t say. His son is really quite the speaker. I was almost incited by him.”

“He’s just a despicable person.” Oliver’s expression was extremely ugly. The current situation put him somewhat at a loss. ” What should we do? Do we really have to go to Mirror Lake?”

“Do we still have a choice? That kid even dared to kill his biological father.”

“But…” Oliver was very unwilling.

However, he also knew that he had no other choice.

Without the escort of the Firefox mercenary group, he wouldn’t be able to bring these goods safely to Fallen Eagle City.

However, if he really followed them to Mirror Lake, then there was a high chance that these goods would be seized as military supplies… in this aspect, he didn’t need to overestimate the conscience of the army.

Especially during the war.

Also, according to his speculation, the Marquis’ army was probably defeated.

If that was true, it would be more dangerous to go to Mirror Lake.

Compared to Oliver, who was hesitating, Colin changed his mind and wanted to go to Mirror Lake.

Baron Angele went to Mirror Lake alongside Marquis Charles. If the Marquis’ army was defeated, Colin would be able to find his father there.

Since his father was right there, there was no need for him to go to Fallen Eagle City and seek help from his sister.

As for the danger of the battlefield…

Colin could pretend to be dead.

Besides, no one could pretend to be dead like him.

Sal had the situation under control. He appointed the leader of the team and told them to pack up and leave.

The cavalry of the Saint Hilde family had already left. They were probably continuing to search for other unlucky people in the surroundings, leaving behind only horse manure and Saru’s lonely corpse.

Colin suddenly stepped forward.

“Where are you going?” Oliver shouted from behind. He was currently extremely on edge. He felt that Colin was the only person in the entire camp who could make him feel at ease.

“To bury Mr. Saru,” Colin said without turning his head.

“You…” Oliver’s eyes widened. He could not understand why Colin wanted to collect Saru’s body.

Are you that close to Saru?

Aren’t you afraid of angering Sal?

After some contemplation, Oliver chose to not follow.

Therefore, Colin walked to Saru’s body alone and began to dig a hole.

Ever since he advanced, Colin found that his strength had greatly increased. Moreover, he could already control the holy light energy to move around in his body, thus accelerating the recovery and a small increase in his strength.

Taking the opportunity to dig a hole, Colin happened to experiment and adapt to his new strength.

Soon, a hole about a meter deep was dug.

Colin saw Sal’s expressionless face when he climbed out of the hole.

“Shall we lift him together?” Colin pointed at Saru’s body and suggested.

Sal stood still and said coldly, “Collecting the body of such a traitor will damage your reputation, Knight Kahn.”

“Haha, don’t worry. I’m just a wandering knight who has lost his territory. I don’t have any reputation left.” Colin dragged Saru’s body into the hole after seeing that Sal was not willing to help.

‘What does the reputation of Kahn Surdo have to do with me?’ He pondered.

With a loud slam, the body fell into the pit and the dust was blown into the air.

“Knight Kahn, you’ll be heading to Mirror Lake camp, right?” Sal’s voice came from outside the pit.

“Of course. It’s my responsibility as a knight. Also, this is the best chance to restore the honor of the Surdo family,” Colin replied in a serious tone.

“Very good! We will set off in half an hour. I look forward to continuing to travel with you.”

“Okay, I’ll be right there.”

Colin squatted in the pit and wiped his sweat. After the footsteps from above gradually faded away, he quietly took out his dagger and water bag.

“Chi!”

“Gulp… gulp…”

When the people of the Firefox mercenary group saw the military camp by Mirror Lake in the distance, the sky had already completely darkened.

The sentries on patrol at the periphery had already noticed this group of people. After seeing the emergency recruitment order in Sal’s hand, they gave them directions to the gathering place.

Oliver followed the group and walked forward, looking as if he had nothing left to live for.

As Colin walked, he drank the “water” in his water bag. He did not seem to be in a good mood either.

This was because he realized that the blood of the tier 2 warrior, Saru, was actually unable to help him increase his strength.

The effect of drinking it was actually exactly the same as the deer blood and that useless thief. It could only restore his stamina.

As for the effect of the blood, Colin felt that there were two possibilities.

One possibility was that the previous advancement was just a coincidence, and not because of Knight Carter’s blood.

This was clearly the worst-case scenario, which meant that the blood did not have any effect on his strength.

There was another possibility.

That was, not all the fresh blood of high-level professionals had an effect. Perhaps, only the fresh blood of high-level knights could help Colin increase his strength.

Therefore, he still needed to conduct further experiments.

Thinking of this, Colin suddenly had a headache.

After all, compared to the warriors on the street, this number of knights was rare, and most of them had noble statuses. Their fresh blood was not easy to get.

After entering the military camp, Colin found that this place occupied a huge area, and he could not see the end of it at a glance.

The camp was crowded with people, and he did not know how many people had gathered there.

However, Colin could see that the people gathered in this camp were obviously not regular soldiers. They should be temporary recruits like the Firefox mercenary group.

Their weapons and equipment were not uniform. Some of them even had farming tools like hoes, which made people wonder if they were farmers who had been urgently recruited from the fields.

It seemed that the people gathered here were nothing more than cannon fodder.

After settling down in the camp, Oliver came over again. “Knight Kahn, have you seen the situation in the eastern camp?”

“That should be the official camp of the St. Hilde family.”

The camp by the Mirror Lake was divided into two parts. Unlike the messy camp on the west side where Colin and the others were, the camp on the east side was obviously well-organized and heavily guarded.

“That’s right! I tried to take a few steps over there, but before I got close, I was blocked by the patrolling soldiers.”

This was not strange.

The regular army’s camp definitely would not allow people to casually enter.

Colin looked at the eager Oliver and immediately understood what he meant. “You want to go to the eastern camp?”

“Yes.” Oliver nodded repeatedly. “You have also seen the situation on our side. Once we start fighting, we will definitely be used as cannon fodder!

“Therefore, we had better think of a way to sneak into the main army’s camp in the east. That would be safer. Alas, I can’t get in there, but you’re different. If you tell them you’re part of the Surdo family, you can get in.”

Colin hesitated.

He knew that the fake Kahn Surdo could fool the Firefox mercenary group and Oliver, but if he went to meet the real nobles in this world, he would be exposed.

Of course, he could also use his real identity to go there. It would be easier for him to find his father, Baron Angele, if he was in the camp.

However, if Baron Angele was not here…

“Knight Kahn, please inform the Marquis that I am willing to give all the goods I brought to the Saint Hilde family for free!”

Colin looked at the fat merchant in front of him in surprise. He admired the merchant’s decisiveness. “You are so generous.”

“What can I do if I’m not willing…” Oliver forced a bitter smile and encouraged him again, “Of course, I won’t forget the help you’ve given me. If I survive this time, I, as well as the Tulip Chamber of Commerce, will definitely thank you greatly!”

Looking at Oliver’s solemn and enthusiastic gaze, Colin could only nod and say, “Alright, I’ll give it a try.”

After leaving the tent, Colin headed east.

Just as he was hesitating whether or not he should reveal his true identity, a voice suddenly sounded:

“Young Master Colin, is that really you?”
