Chapter 179 I'm back
After a fierce battle, the knights were warmly welcomed when they returned. The caravan bosses took out food and wine to entertain the two knight teams.
"How did you get, Lord Caris?" Russell asked with a smile.
"Two Ice Soul Orbs!" Knight Commander Caris grinned, "My luck is much better than Lord Stephen."
Russell smiled and said, "Congratulations!"
In fact, he felt a little sour in his heart. When there were three snow demons in front of him, he chose the most majestic one and let Xiao Menglong devour it, but he only got one Ice Soul Orb. Unexpectedly, the most frustrated short snow demon got two Ice Soul Orbs.
Blood loss!
However, this was also the result of Caris's bloody battle. Russell did not have a trace of greed, but sincerely congratulated him.
"Thank you!" Knight Commander Caris replied. He was not yet a lord and needed Ice Soul Orbs as a military achievement.
Then he said, "The caravan has prepared supper. Sir Russell, come and have a drink."
"No, they are entertaining the knights fighting the snow demon. I watched the whole process and didn't contribute a bit of effort." Russell declined.
He went to sleep in the tent.
But before going to bed, he couldn't help muttering, "In fact, I am the guardian who contributed the most. I teamed up with Xiao Menglong and killed one or two hundred green skins and one blue skin... Forget it, keep a low profile."
The way of survival of the fluorescent mushroom family is to be low-key.
Russell didn't inherit this in appearance, but in action, he is definitely better than his master.
...
On October 15, the sun was shining brightly.
The warmth of the sun could not be felt on the snowy plains, but when you step into the cave from the snowy plains, pass through the cave and step onto the soil of the Youguang River Valley.
The warmth of the sun can be clearly felt from every pore - this is the hottest summer season of the year.
"It must be more than 20 degrees."
Russell took off his dark gold ceramic armor and put on a set of light clothes. Before he rode into the Gale Manor, he felt hot sweat on his head.
Someone had already reported his arrival to the lord of Gale Manor, Russell's uncle, Rosen Fluorescent Mushroom.
So soon, Uncle Rosen brought his family to greet Russell at the gate of the small castle.
Grandmother Ingrid, who lived in Gale Manor, also stood with Uncle Rosen's family, smiling at Russell's arrival.
"Grandmother!"
"Little Will-O-Willow, you are finally willing to come back!" Old Lady Ingrid gently hugged Russell, "I heard from your father that you, Little Will-O-Willow, went to Sancha River Mouth and made the old earl take out all the family assets."
"It's the kindness of grandpa." Russell smiled.
Then he hugged Uncle Rosen and Aunt Clara in turn, and then looked at the two children, one tall and one short.
The tall one is Rosen's eldest son, that is, Russell's eldest cousin Royal, and the short one is Rosen's youngest son, Royal.
"I brought gifts for you." Russell waved, "Ram, give the gifts to Royal and Royal."
Then he introduced: "This is Knight Commander Caris, he escorted me all the way back."
After giving the gifts and introducing, Russell did not plan to stay at Gale Manor, because he had to rush to Fluorescent Castle for lunch.
"Sir Caris, let's go to Fluorescent Castle together."
"No, Sir Russell, the knights and I will rest at Gale Manor and return to Sanchahekou." Knight Commander Caris declined.
Uncle Rosen also said: "I will entertain Sir Caris. We have been friends for more than ten years. Russell, you can go to Fluorescent Castle without worry."
Seeing this, Russell did not force it.
After saying goodbye to his grandmother and uncle's family, he took Ram and two coachmen to Fluorescent Castle alone.
Before noon, he successfully arrived at the place where he grew up.
"Master Russell, welcome home!" The guard at the castle arch bowed and let Russell go after seeing him.
Then Russell met his parents and sister Lola in front of the castle gate.
"I'm glad you're back safely." Mrs. Meryl finally put down her heart after seeing Russell.
"Where's your elder brother?"
"Your elder brother left for the Red Castle to work for the Grand Duke."
"I see." After hugging his mother, Russell looked at Baron Roman with a smile, "Father, I'm back."
"Fortunately, I didn't linger in Sanchahekou." Baron Roman joked casually, "I was really worried that you would stay in Sanchahekou, become a vassal of your grandfather, and harm the territory with this kid Mel."
"How could that be." Russell smiled.
Then he rubbed Lola's hair again, which was considered to be a greeting to his sister.
Lola was so angry that she yelled, "Russell, you are so annoying. Don't mess up my hair again. I am already angry!"
"What if I give you a gift?"
Lola calmed down immediately: "What gift is it?"
"Open it and see for yourself." Russell signaled his valet to give the gift to Lola. It was not a valuable thing, just a set of hand-sewn rag dolls.
Although it was not valuable, girls of this age did not value money.
As expected, after opening the gift and seeing the beautiful rag dolls, Lola smiled brightly, and her ordinary face became much more lively.
A moment later.
In the restaurant, the family was happily eating lunch.
Russell ate the food without any manners. The trip to the snowfield these days made his mouth ache.
Seeing that her son was eating well, Mrs. Meryl became more and more happy, but she still couldn't help but ask: "You have been living at grandpa's house during this period. Didn't you learn bad things from Mel? You can tell me everything." I."
"Mother, if you can't trust Cousin Mel, you have to trust me." Russell raised his head, "I didn't do anything!"
"real?"
"Absolutely true."
"Okay, mother believes in you." Mrs. Meryl smiled.
Baron Roman asked: "Then what have you and Mel done this month? Don't tell me that you just traveled around...Although Mel has a good temper, his style is not better than your elder brother. Where to go."
It must be said that Baron Roman knew Roland and Mel very well.
Russell said casually: "Cousin Mel introduced me to many famous ladies. Although they are very enthusiastic, I don't want to be kidnapped by marriage so soon, so I keep a certain distance from them."
"Hmm." Baron Roman was noncommittal.
Mrs. Meryl said matter-of-factly: "You can't even look down on Malena. You are indeed setting your sights too high. I observed you carefully at your grandpa's birthday party. Indeed, there is no famous lady who is better than Malena."
Seeing that his mother brought up old things again and asked him to pursue Malena, Russell quickly changed the subject: "Father, mother, I got a big opportunity at the mouth of the Sancha River this time, and my strength has improved by leaps and bounds!"
"Oh, what kind of opportunity is it?" Baron Roman was intrigued by Russell.
Mrs. Meryl also put aside Malena and looked at Russell with concern. No mother does not value the strength of her son.
"A mouthful of original dragon breath." Russell smiled.
As soon as these words came out, Baron Roman and his wife were both surprised: "What?"
"A breath of original dragon's breath, a breath of original dragon's breath given to me by His Excellency Medicalun." In fact, Russell had this opportunity long before Baron Roman and his wife left Bluebird Castle, but Russell did not report it to his parents.
Save the surprise for today.
