After the previous fierce battle, there were only eight warriors left. Ten of them were sacrificed in the battle and the remaining two were killed by Dean because they failed to assassinate Dean.
Now one of them was sent back to report the news. Only seven warriors were left. Including Reid and Dean, there were nine of them.
"Master, have you practiced archery before?" Reid curiously asked Dean as the others were dealing with the corpses in the canyon.
Dean checked his bow to see if there were any signs of loosening: "I have practiced for more than a year."
"Only for more than a year?" Reid's eyes widened as he was surprised: "Your archery is so powerful after practicing for such a short time? I've seen archers in the army who have practiced for four or five years. They wouldn't be as accurate as you. "
"Indeed." Another archer said: "If it wasn't for master's help then we would have been wiped out by the giant wolf cavalry. Especially that female barbarian, she is too strong!"
Dean indifferently said: "The intensity of practice is different. Time is useless. Moreover many things depend on talent."
Reid was dumbfounded: "That's true."
The young archer's face turned red. If someone else had said such words, he would have refuted a few words. But after seeing Dean's archery skills, he couldn't help but be convinced. Among the six skills of the knight, there was absolutely no problem in archery. In terms of horsemanship, he was also fully qualified. He could be called a real knight!
Dean turned to look at the female barbarian who was tied to the ground. He looked at Reid and others: "Do barbarians speak the language of beasts? Do any of them understand human language? "
Reid was surprised: "Master, why do you say that?"
"I'm just asking."
"Oh, I heard that the royal family of barbarians seems to know some strange language. It's the exclusive language of their royal family. The rest of the barbarians don't have the conditions to learn it. They only know some primitive beast language which is relatively simple." Reid said.
Dean was startled. Royal family? Was this woman royalty among the barbarians?
Ivette noticed that the boy who captured her was looking at her. She felt that the latter seemed to be talking about her. She was a little angry, but more worried. She didn't expect to meet such a powerful person inside the wall in this remote place. At this moment, she only hoped that her mount could send a message back to the fortress so that the chief would send someone to rescue her.
Dean saw the anger and hatred in the eyes of the female barbarian. He thought of something and asked Reid: "Where is her mount?"
Reid was startled as he turned to look at the canyon. His face changed as he quickly got up and ran into the canyon. After a moment he returned. His face was extremely ugly as he looked at Dean: "The beast ran away."
Dean was surprised. Did he run away? Logically speaking, this savage should have a very close relationship with his mount. Why would he run away? Could it be that after this female savage was captured by him, she used a method that he did not know to send away his mount?
He frowned as he looked at Reid: "Let everyone collect the corpses and pile up the barrier. If the beast runs back to send a message then we'll have to face a long battle."
Reid was also aware of this point. He nodded and ran into the canyon. He relied on his one arm to help the others to clean up the corpses.
Dean adjusted the bowstring and put it back on his back. He got up and came in front of the female barbarian. He squatted down and looked at the contour of her face. He found that it was quite similar to the Europeans of the old era. The ancestors of these barbarians were probably the survivors of the area. It also proved that some of the people survived the devastating disaster.
However, how could there be such a situation if the survivors lived inside the giant wall?
Some of the people who inherited the global lingua franca from three hundred years ago were expelled from the giant wall. A group of people who communicated in a new language were living inside the wall. If the barbarians outside the giant wall were a part of the survivors who were expelled from the giant wall, then the people inside the wall as the winners didn't need to change their language and use a new language.
Dean frowned as he couldn't figure it out. Perhaps the answer could only be found in the history books of the barbarians. He hoped that they had preserved this thing.
"Despicable people inside the wall!" Ivette spat out a mouthful of saliva as she saw Dean's face.
Dean indifferently glanced at the saliva on Dean's face. He raised his hand and gently wiped it. He pinched her jaw and opened her mouth. Then he opened his mouth and spat a mouthful of saliva into her mouth. At the same time he pinched her throat. She swallowed the saliva. He let go of his hand and quietly looked at her: "Do you still want to vomit?"
Ivette looked at Dean. She couldn't believe her eyes. The despicable person inside the wall spat in her mouth? She had a disgusting feeling like she had swallowed horse dung. Her face changed. She desperately coughed and spat out the saliva in her mouth. She looked at Dean and roared, "I'm going to kill you, you bastard! Fuck!"
Reid and others heard the words of the female barbarian. They looked back and saw Dean squatting in front of the female barbarian. The latter didn't pose any danger to Dean. They turned their heads and continued to do their own things.
"F * ck?" Dean heard her cursing in English, but his face was indifferent. He lowered his voice and said in English: "If you want to live, then be honest with me. If you provoke me, although I won't kill you, but I guarantee that you will lose some organs that you care about."
Ivette was startled as if she was struck by lightning.
She almost suspected that there was a problem with her ears. The despicable person inside the wall … spoke in the king's language? Did he understand the king's language?
Her eyes widened as she looked at Dean. The young barbarian who was tied to the ground was also confused. Although he didn't understand what Dean was saying, but he was familiar with the wording of the language. It was the great king's language.
"You, you …" Ivette's mouth was slightly open. Her brain couldn't recover.
There was a trace of sadness in Dean's eyes as he saw her shocked expression. He could speak English but he didn't learn it from the super chip. After all, time was limited. It was impossible for him to learn the old language. The reason why he knew English was because he had been abroad when he was a child. To be precise, he was born in the American Empire.
In China at that time, people who had a little money and conditions liked to go abroad to give birth to children. Compared to the domestic medical conditions, they trusted the foreign hospitals more. This was a kind of 'disease'. His family was no exception. His parents were researchers. Although they weren't rich but they had no problem to go abroad to give birth. That's why he was born in a hospital in the United States. He lived in the United States until the age of five before returning to his motherland. He learned English from an early age.
"As long as you cooperate with me I can save your life." Dean continued to speak in English.
Ivette gradually recovered but still looked at the boy in shock. She couldn't believe that the royal language was mastered by the people inside the wall. Even the members of the royal family were extremely difficult to learn this language. Especially in her opinion, it was even more difficult than hunting a few ferocious beasts. But a boy who was a few years younger than her was able to speak so fluently. It was incredible.
"Who are you?" Ivette couldn't help but ask.
Dean frowned: "It doesn't matter who I am. The question is whether you want to live or not."
"Of course." Ivette replied without hesitation.
"Then we will cooperate." Dean stared at her.
