Transcendent Noble

Chapter 23



Several strong short tailed deer were drinking water leisurely by the river. When they heard a sudden movement behind them, these alert animals quickly ran away.

One of the bold short tailed deer ran a distance and stopped to look back. It saw a slim human walking towards the place where they had just drunk water. Shaking his head, the curious short tailed deer ran after his companion.

Lilia\'s shooting is the best among bear mercenaries, but she\'s not here to hunt short tailed deer today.

"Here it is." Lilia found a stake nailed to the beach. Along the rope tied to the stake, she lifted an oval cage from the river. The heavy weight of the cage made Lilia smile.

This is a cage made of branches. The cage has a big belly and a small mouth. There is a barbed mouth inside. Yes, this is a shrimp cage.

"I don\'t know. How can adults know such a strange shrimp fishing method, but it really works!" Carrying the shrimp cage full of harvest, Lilia murmured softly, and the upturned corners of her mouth showed the girl\'s mood at this time.

"Hey! Lilia, what are you talking about to yourself? Are you thinking about Lord Victor again?"

A teasing voice came from behind. Lilia was ashamed, stamped her feet, turned around and said, "sister Linda! What are you talking about!"

A woman in leather armor with a long sword hanging from her waist is dragging the same shrimp cage to Lilia. She is Linda, a maid of the War Bear mercenary regiment.

Linda is 28 years old. She looks like a mercenary in her 30s. Her skin is a little rough, but her convex and upturned body and correct facial features make her have the charm of a mature woman. Compared with her combat skills, Linda is better at tailoring, cooking and first aid. She is regarded as the logistics personnel of the War Bear mercenary regiment. Sometimes, she is also responsible for the intelligence collection of the mercenary regiment.

Linda is also Nelson\'s partner, so Lilia is very close to her. The girl Huaichun\'s mind can\'t hide from her.

"Is your shrimp cage full?" Seeing Lilia a little embarrassed, Linda timely changed the subject.

"Well, you see, they are all half a foot long green shrimps." The girl proudly raised the heavy shrimp cage to Linda.

"I\'m full, too." Linda sighed: "Lord Victor is different from other nobles I\'ve met. The shrimp cage he designed is really easy to use, and I\'ve never heard of the cooking methods he taught me. You know? If we don\'t work as mercenaries in the future, we can open a bar or hotel with the cooking skills we learned from adults, and we can make a lot of money!"

Speaking of this, the maid soldier\'s eyes were shining, as if there were countless kinshores shining.

"Why don\'t you be a mercenary? Sister Linda, we are the adult\'s family guard now! It\'s the guard! Okay?" Lilia tooted her mouth in some displeasure.

"Well, well, we\'re family guards now." Linda sighed and said, "let\'s go quickly. The adult said he would teach me to make iron shrimp today. I think it must be very delicious."

"Of course."

When they walked towards the camp with a smile, a woman\'s painful groan came from the nearby trees.

Linda and Lilia looked at each other, tacitly put down their shrimp cage, pulled out their weapons, and touched the trees one by one.

When they got close to the trees, they heard the sobs made by the woman after she was gagged and the laughter of several men. They immediately understood what happened in the trees.

"Who? Get out!" Linda cut off a branch with her long sword and shouted to the trees. Lilia also pointed her hunting bow to the sound in the trees.

There was a flustered sound in the trees. After a while, a thief headed man poked his head out of the trees.

"It\'s sister Linda and Lilia. Come out, big guys." The wretched man smiled flatteringly at Linda.

After a while, several men in leather jackets emerged from the trees, all of whom were militia recruited by Nelson among the people.

"What are you doing?!" Linda snapped and asked. The long sword in her hand was not relaxed at all. The flashing cold light of the blade made several men flinch back.

"No, nothing. Big guys just spend money and have some fun." The wretched man smiled and said that the sparse yellow teeth in his mouth made Linda feel very sick.

Hearing the answer from her companions, several nervous militia relaxed. Linda\'s face flashed green and assumed an attacking posture, and Lilia also pulled the hunting bow full.

"Call out the people inside!" Linda\'s cold voice made the men cold.

After a while, a tall and strong man came out of the trees with a woman in ragged clothes.

His name was Logan. He was a small captain of the militia and was in charge of three militia. The good thing was interrupted, which made the rude guy very unhappy. He pushed the woman in his hand to the ground in front of Linda and spit on the ground with disdain.

"Can\'t we spend money for fun? Bitch, tell sister Linda what\'s going on!" Logan scolded the woman on the ground.

"Yes. We spent a lot of money." Logan\'s tough attitude made his men confident.

"I, I took their money." The woman on the ground pulled her clothes, tried to cover her purple body, and muttered in a low voice.

With a sigh in her heart, Lilia loosened the full hunting bow.

She knew that the woman was a farmer\'s wife and two children, but she couldn\'t manage such a thing.

"Can we go now, sister Linda?" Logan said jokingly.

Looking at the woman trembling and weeping silently on the ground, Linda\'s eyes were red, which reminded her of her sister.

When Linda was young, her parents died one after another. It was her sister who supported her by tailoring.

The helpless sisters were coveted by the hooligans in the town. Finally one day, several hooligans broke into their home. After some threats and beatings, her sister was killed.

Some unseen neighbors reported to the sheriff, but after these villains presented a filial piety to the sheriff, the matter ended.

At that time, Linda, who was already sensible, fled home overnight. With the help of her kind neighbors, she was taken in by a circus. After several twists and turns, Linda finally joined the War Bear mercenary regiment, where she learned how to protect herself and others with a sword.

Linda wanted revenge, but when she went back, she found that the town had been razed to the ground by the Sassanians.

But she did not forget her sister\'s humiliating and frightened eyes, just like this woman.

Nor did she forget her sister\'s scarred body, just like this woman.

She did not forget the ugly faces of those hooligans, just like Logan!

"Go to hell!"

The long sword was flying, just as she thought countless times.

The birds in the woods were startled into the air by the sudden revenge and flew away with a loud cry.

Linda stood there, letting the blood on the sword drip down.
