Wearing black silk for a foreign woman

"WAAAAAGH~" Facing George's chopped blow, Lind simply ignored the opponent's attack and planned to block it with his thigh. At the cost of his leg, he chopped off George's head and exchanged his injury for his life.

In the end, Lind's legs were fine, and George's head was fine too, because at the last moment, George reacted, immediately changed his moves, and blocked Lind's chop.

George was confused and doubtful that his special move had failed. He got ready for another fight.

"You are very good." George said seriously. "If you were not a beastman, I would have spared your life."

"But unfortunately, you...ah!" Just as George was speaking, the sail suddenly swept over and swept George directly out of the deck from behind.

Chapter 379 Flexible Faith

It happened so suddenly that the Holy Grail Knight George was swept away, and everyone on the deck had no time to react and just stood there in a daze.

The attention of everyone on the deck was attracted by the fight between Lind and George, so much so that everyone present forgot that they were now on a ship, not on land, and the situation was different from before.

The whole ship suddenly turned, and all the unprepared people were staggered by the violent shaking of the ship. Many of them fell down. But the one who moved the farthest was George, who was knocked away by the mast that suddenly swept across.

"Ahhhhhh~" the knight's shouts spread from near to far, vividly demonstrating what the Doppler effect is. After a while, the knight's shouts stopped, replaced by a "bang" as he fell into the water.

The knight fell into the water.

Linde was also shaken by the violent shaking. He struggled to stand up, trying to keep his balance and walked to the fence. Not far away, George suddenly emerged from the sea.

"You despicable beastman!" George floated on the sea and shouted angrily at Lind. "I shouldn't have believed that you would fight honestly! You cheated! Even if you have the blood of a strong man, you are still a dirty beastman!"

Linde blinked in confusion. What just happened had nothing to do with him!

On the other side, Ranna controlled the rudder and stabilized the boat again. The sail that had been thrown out swung back again, attracting everyone's attention.

Without saying anything, Lind immediately understood who did it.

"No need to thank me. I just did what a subject should do." Ran Na saluted Lin De.

"Well done." Linde thanked Ranna, then turned to look at George on the sea.

George was hit hard by that blow just now. A piece of wood that thick would have been enough to hurt even a Holy Grail Knight.

He tried to swim to catch up, but the injured George couldn't do it at all, and the wind direction was not right. In the end, George could only float on the sea in anger, waving his fist at Lind angrily.

"Remember this! Lind Hunter! Our duel is not over yet!" George shouted angrily at Lind. "Next time we meet, I will not show mercy! I will use all my strength to kill you instantly! I swear to the Lady of the Lake!"

"Lady of the Lake? Just swear to your false god, you will never have the chance to take my life again." Linde responded with a smile.

"You miserable bastard!" Hearing the insult to the God he believed in, George flew into a rage and tried to swim over desperately. However, after just a few flaps, George felt a sharp pain in his back and almost sank.

In the end, George could only glare at Lind angrily and watch the ship sail away.

"Huh~" Lind didn't breathe a sigh of relief until George disappeared from his sight. "The Holy Grail Knight is worthy of his reputation."

"I'm very sorry, Your Highness, the Son of God, for putting you in danger." Fenrir stepped forward and said with self-blame and guilt.

As a subordinate, Fenrir felt ashamed for not stopping the enemy and forcing his lord, to whom he swore allegiance, to face the enemy. Even though he was not a knight, Fenrir felt ashamed of this.

In addition to Fenrir, Judy had the same expression. Whether the boss could fight or not and letting the boss fight in person were two different concepts.

"It's okay. According to Ranna's plan, a head-on confrontation with the Holy Grail Knight was not part of our plan. It's not your fault." Lind comforted the wolf and the rabbit. "But seeing the strength of a strong man is also a valuable experience."

Since the incident has already happened, we should think about how to learn from it. In Lind's opinion, it is not a bad thing to let his beastmen see the top combat power of this world with their own eyes.

The Holy Grail Knights are recognized as the most powerful combat unit in the entire human world. It is not a bad thing to let the beastmen under his command see the top combat power of mankind and broaden their horizons.

After all, Lind was sure that he couldn't live on this 4T island for the rest of his life, and the beastmen under his command would sooner or later go out with him.

After comforting the two beastmen who were a little depressed because they had not completed the mission, Linde checked on Tek. Tek was seriously injured, with a sword in his side. Linde immediately treated him.

Fortunately, after checking, Lind was surprised to find that Tyk had no internal injuries. While marveling at Tyk's luck, he cleaned the wound and stopped the bleeding.

A Holy Grail Knight came right up to him and fought him face to face, but none of his men died and only one was injured, which was a pretty good record. After dealing with Tek, Lind walked to the helm, where Ranna was.

Seeing Linde walking by, Ranna raised her chin proudly and looked at Linde with some complacency.

"Well done, ma'am." Lind praised. "How did you do that just now?"

"Um... please don't call me Madam, sir. I'm not married yet." Ran Na corrected the question of before and after marriage. "When a ship is sailing, the sails will change due to different wind directions, especially when the sails are not fixed."

"While you were fighting, my lord, I was also observing the wind direction. When the wind direction was right, I suddenly turned the rudder, and then the wind would blow the sails to move together." Ran Na explained with some pride.

Linde understood Ranna's explanation. To put it simply, she used the wind. The more Linde saw this capable girl who not only knew how to fight but also knew how to steer a boat and was pretty, the more he liked her.

Just don't be another Efit.

"Do you believe in God?" Lind asked casually.

"I believe in the Mother Earth." Ranna said with a smile.

"Ah?" Linde was stunned. He vaguely remembered that Ranna mentioned that she believed in the goddess of mercy, Leisaya. How did she become the Mother Goddess of the Earth?

"When did you convert?" Lind asked.

"When I meet you." Ran Na said without blushing or beating her heart.

It is very common for subjects, vassals, or others to convert to a different faith because of the lord's different faith. Although there is no hard and fast requirement, it is obviously more likely to be promoted if you have the same faith as the lord.

Ranna's behavior was obviously intended to please Lind.

Lind raised his eyebrows at Ranna's straightforward conversion, but said nothing. Anyway, he was not a serious believer, so he could change it. As long as the Mother Earth Goddess had no objection, it was fine. I didn't care.

Then, as the beastmen suffered from seasickness and vomiting, the robbed grain ship sailed towards the agreed rendezvous point.

Chapter 380 Sense of Ritual

Linde's tactic of launching a surprise attack on the city of Vickro was proposed by Ranna, and the target was the grain ships in the city.

Now it was already autumn, and winter was not far away. Even if the land was cultivated, it could not produce food. In order to ensure that Guiyang IX's search for the Holy Grail could proceed smoothly, his father also spent a lot of money, not only sending people, but also transporting enough supplies to support the first winter.

After the ship docked, it was reasonable to transport the supplies on board, at least the grain should be transported down. If it was piled on the ship all the time, it would get moldy and spoil. But Jiyang IX did not do so. In order to prevent the serfs from stealing the grain, he chose to pile the grain on the ship, which gave Linde and his party an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Judging from the results, Lind and his team's plan was very successful. Not only did they successfully drive away one of the grain ships, but the remaining ships were also liberated by Lind.

The anchors and cables were cut, and the remaining three ships were free to drift with the current. Where the three ships would drift to was not of any concern to Lind. The important thing was that Jiyang IX had lost all the ships and the supplies on them.

The ship was filled with food that Guiyang IX brought from Batoran. Lind, who played the role of a food-stealing pirate, was in a very happy mood.

If the beastman next to him wasn't vomiting.

"Vomit it, vomit it, don't hold it in, you'll get used to it after a while." Beside the mast, the beastmen were lined up in an orderly manner, spitting out the half-digested food in their digestive tracts towards the sea. Lind stood beside Fenrir, patting the wolf queen's smooth back.

"I'm so sorry... Son of God... Your Highness... I..." In between vomiting, Fenrir wanted to thank Lind, but before he could finish his words, Fenrir couldn't hold it back anymore, and vomit gushed out of his nostrils.

Linde quickly pressed Fenrir's head back, and with a "wow" sound, Fenrir vomited again.

"It feels so bad... I feel like I'm going to die..." On the other side of Linde, the little rabbit Judy was vomiting and felt dizzy and weak all over. She slid down the guardrail like a piece of rag.

"You'll get used to it after vomiting." Linde comforted the little rabbit with a wry smile.

These beastmen who have always lived on land suddenly boarded a boat, and because there was no one to coordinate the sails, the sailing was not stable. It was swaying all over, so it was not surprising that the beastmen would get seasick.

It is not surprising to vomit when seasick for the first time, and it is also good to exercise. After all, they may follow Lind to leave Aiwozhen Island and set foot on other lands in the future.

On the upper deck, Ranna was controlling the rudder, and she wanted to laugh at the embarrassment of the beastmen, but she held it back. Although she was not well-educated, she still understood that it was very rude to laugh at others' ugliness.

Coincidentally, Linde and Ranna made eye contact.

"Captain Ranna, how long will it take us to get there?" Lind called to Ranna.

"No one is cooperating with the sails, and in order to avoid being discovered by the knights on the shore, I have to sail deep into the sea for a while." Ranna replied. "But we should reach the rendezvous point before dark."

Seizing the boat was only the first step, and the next step was to drive the boat back. Linde had just been thinking about how to bring all the nearly one hundred serfs back in one go, as traveling by land would take too much time.

Now we have boats. Boats are much faster than people walking. A journey that would normally take fifteen days can now be reached in just a few days.

However, even with a ship, she couldn't go directly to Dundalk. She had to give the enemy an illusion and not let them find out the direction she was sailing in. Therefore, Ranna sailed deep into the sea at first, creating the illusion that she was sailing to the Old Continent.

"I understand." Linde nodded to Ranna, and then became idle.

Lind, feeling somewhat bored, looked at the beastmen on the deck whose faces turned pale from vomiting, and wondered if he could do something.

There is no Benadryl, no Diphenhydramine, and no Promethazine here. Lind has no particularly good way to deal with the beastmen's seasickness.

At this moment, Lind felt that the holy marks on his body were still slightly warm, especially the holy mark of Mother Earth on his chest.

Why not ask God for help?

(Mother Earth, can you hear me?)

(Of course I heard you. How did it go? Did you win?) Mother Earth replied almost instantly.

(Sort of.) Lind admitted.

(Next time, don't pray for me together with the cold sun.) Mother Earth said in a resentful tone. (Blessed together with him, I still have to endure his dazzling sunlight.)

(Sorry, it's urgent, I can't help it.) Linde apologized. (I want to ask you something, remember Fran and Sal, can't they use healing magic?)

(That’s right.)

(Can I use it? I have two dozen seasickness patients who need treatment.)

(You want to be my shaman!?) The Earth Mother's tone suddenly became excited.

(No, I just want to ask if I can use other magic.)

After communicating with the Mother Goddess of Earth for a while, Lind walked up to a group of embarrassed beastmen, took off his shirt, and revealed his muscular upper body.

Seeing the son of God's explosive upper body, especially the attractive abdominal muscles, Fenrir instinctively wanted to lick it, even though he was dizzy from vomiting. As for Judy, she subconsciously wanted to jump up and suck those two things.

The holy scar on Lind's chest shone a green light towards the beastmen.

Illuminated by this life-filled light, the complexion of all the beastmen improved significantly, and then... they continued to vomit.

Continue vomiting as long as you have the strength.

Linde was so upset that he put his shirt back on silently. It would be better not to get treatment.

(Don’t I need to sing and dance when I cast my magic?) Lind asked curiously.

(What do you mean by singing and dancing? That’s a ritual! A ritual!) The Mother Earth Goddess shouted angrily.

(Oh, so I don't need a ritual to use divine magic?)

(You are different from them.) Mother Earth explained. (Your magic is directly used by me through the holy marks on your body, but the magic of the shamans is not.)

(Oh? Why can't you just cast the spell through the shamans?)

(You have a lot of questions today, Linde.) Mother Earth didn't seem to want to dwell on this issue any further, and then went offline.

The Earth Mother was offline, but this also caused Lind to think. Since the Earth Mother could release divine spells directly through the holy scar on her chest, why couldn't other shamans do it and need to perform rituals?

Sense of ceremony? Linde gets angry when this word comes up...

Just as Lind was thinking, a familiar-looking pigeon landed on the railing.

Chapter 381: Reunion

After the grain ship sailed deep into the ocean for a while and was out of the enemy's sight, Ranna steered the rudder and began to move along the coastline, looking for other people with whom she had agreed to meet up.

According to the agreement, the serfs who were originally building a village in the east of Vikro would wait for the arrival of the ship near the coastline, take everyone on board, and head to the city of New Dundalk together.

The knights were indeed very fast, especially the Batoran knights, but Guiyang IX had to lead infantry and could not move at full speed. Therefore, Lind and his party had the advantage of speed and could reach their destination before Guiyang IX.

"It should be nearby, right?" After sailing for a while, Ranna had been observing the coastline and she felt that they should be there soon.

"I think so too." Lind nodded in agreement. "Everyone, keep your eyes open and look for our companions on the shore!"

Lind gave instructions to the beastmen, and the beastmen, who were in a very bad condition due to seasickness, could only force themselves to be alert and try to observe the traces on the coast.

Just as Lind and others were looking for other people, a pigeon suddenly landed on the railing.

"Pigeon?" Ranna was startled by the sudden appearance of the pigeon.

"This pigeon looks familiar." Linde squinted his eyes and observed the pigeon.

It was a bit unusual to see a pigeon appear on the sea and stay on the boat. Moreover, Lind thought the pigeon looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Ah!" After carefully observing the color of the other person's neck, Lind reacted. "You are the pigeon that Fran fucked!"

"What's wrong? Are you controlled by Fran again?" Linde asked with interest.
