Chapter 161: Enemy Attack
Ethan didn't know the Knight Commander Anlock, but the other party flattered him so much when they met for the first time, which made him feel something was wrong.
However, he didn't express his opinion at that time, but just responded casually.
After getting on the carriage and walking away, he asked Sophia for the reason.
Only after asking did he know that the youngest son of the Knight Commander wanted to work under him.
When Ethan learned about this situation, his first reaction was that it was abnormal.
A Knight Commander's son has a bright future, why would he work under him?
Only after asking did he know that the youngest son of the Knight Commander almost died in a horse riding accident when he was a child.
Although he was rescued, he suffered a comminuted fracture of his right foot and became disabled for life.
This cut off his knight's path.
He was also depressed because of this, and he had been hiding in the room and refused to see anyone.
The Knight Commander wanted his son to cheer up again, and when he learned that Ethan was short of people, he found Ethan.
After hearing this, Ethan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Sophia, can I refuse? You should know my predicament. I can't even take care of my own men now, so I can't accept more people."
"Of course! This is your freedom."
Sophia knew that Ethan just didn't want a cripple, but she didn't say it out loud. Instead, she smiled and said, "But, Ethan, you have to be careful.
Be quick when you agree to others, and be tactful when you refuse others!"
"I understand!"
While the two were talking, Sophia found a comfortable position and leaned back in the chair.
Then she closed her eyes and said, "Ethan, you can refuse the Knight Commander's son. But I hope you don't refuse another person."
"Who is it?" Ethan wanted to push Sophia away, but when he saw her dark circles, he hesitated, and finally his hand stopped in mid-air.
"You also know Papalia, who was in charge of the coffee business before. He is the son of Klotz's financial officer."
When Ethan heard Papalia, a figure immediately appeared in his mind: "Little Leo?"
"What does Little Leo mean?"
"Oh... this! Little Leo is... um..., he looks a lot like my... um... friend! Yes, friend. I call him Little Leo!
Isn't he in charge of the coffee business? Why introduce him to me again?"
Sophia couldn't help but curl up her lips when she heard Ethan's vague explanation of Little Leo: "He suddenly didn't want to I can't force him to do it! I don't know the reason either.
However, these are irrelevant. The important thing is that his father came to me last night and hoped that I could help, and I agreed! "
Ethan was stunned: "The person in charge of the coffee business doesn't do it, but comes to help me?
This person is a little bit mentally ill!"
"Who knows? Maybe in the eyes of Financial Officer Klotz, you have a better future.
Okay, Ethan, I don't want to talk anymore, lend me your chest! I want to sleep for a while. "
Sophia snuggled in Ethan's arms, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Perhaps she was too tired, Sophia fell asleep in an instant.
Everything came too suddenly, and Ethan was a little at a loss.
I wanted to push Sophia away, but I was reluctant.
After a psychological struggle, he finally gave up.
When Anna, Sophia's personal maid in the same car, saw this scene, she turned her face away and silently pulled the curtain of the car window.
Ethan was shocked when he saw Anna's behavior.
"Anna, what are you doing?"
Anna said in a low voice without turning her head: "Miss is a light sleeper. If it's too bright, I'm afraid she won't sleep well."
After that, Anna stopped the carriage, then silently opened the door, got off, and closed the door.
Ethan was stunned by Anna's smooth operation.
Damn! What does this mean?
Empty carriage.
A beauty in my arms, but no one around!
According to the theory of beasts, at this time, if I don't do something, it seems a bit sorry for this atmosphere!
After a fierce struggle in his heart, Ethan didn't dare to do it in the end, and could only sigh helplessly.
Worried that Sophia would be cold, he took off his coat and covered her.
Perhaps the movement was too big, which startled Sophia. Sophia moved her body and leaned her head on Ethan's shoulder.
At this time, their faces will be close together.
As long as Ethan lowered his head, he could kiss Sophia's cheek.
Ethan's hands trembled immediately, and he struggled again in his heart.
At this moment, there was a slight sound of breaking through the air, and Ethan frowned. He exerted a little force and threw Sophia away from him.
Then, the whole person exploded from the carriage like a cannonball.
Not long after jumping out of the carriage, the person still in mid-air suddenly drew out the Sword of Oath and swung a heavy slash at the air.
At this time, a green stream of light in the distance, as if by appointment, collided accurately with this heavy slash.
"Boom!"
The two hit each other like a bomb detonated, causing a shock wave, shaking people and horses.
Ethan had nothing to rely on in mid-air, and was shaken back dozens of meters. Fortunately, he blocked it in time, and the damage of the Sword of Oath was absorbed, so he was not injured.
"Afulian!"
As soon as he landed, Ethan gritted his teeth and roared.
Then he looked up at the sky and saw a black dot circling in the sky.
"Don't let it run away!" Ethan pointed at the black spot in the sky and shouted.
Before he finished speaking, a blue lightning flashed in the shadow and headed straight for a black spot in the sky.
Until then, Sophia, who was thrown into the carriage, woke up, her face full of confusion, and shouted to Ethan: "What happened?"
Ethan did not reply, but immediately strengthened today's [Unique Vision] to [Perception].
Suddenly, the area within a thousand meters was under control.
Using the rule perception, he searched for Afulian's trace.
But even with such a large-scale and detailed search, nothing was found. Obviously, the other party was not within the perception range.
Ethan sighed helplessly and walked slowly towards the carriage.
While helping Sophia up, he slowly said: "The female elf is here, it seems that she has noticed something."
Sophia frowned: "So, is it your confidentiality that is not done well?"
"My apostles walk in the plane every time they explore, and it is impossible to be discovered.
I haven't talked about this with anyone.
Besides, the target of the arrow just now was you!" Ethan replied slowly.
Upon hearing this, Sophia raised her chin and looked coldly at Anna, her personal maid beside her.
