When Baron Jon saw the reinforcements of the Earl of Meredith, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he didn't dare to play any lord tricks, but greeted the town very warmly: "Welcome to Maple Town. ”

Without these people, his territory would not have known what it would become, so these words were from the heart.

Henry and the others were surrounded into the town, not to mention the welcome in the middle of the road, but also to receive VIP treatment, which immediately increased the sense of pride and honor in the hearts of the soldiers, and even enhanced their sense of mission.

The laughter and laughter here stand in stark contrast to the clouds of the Chesterton family's domain.

More than a dozen kilometers away in the city of Chesterton, the fear brought by the devil hangs over everyone's heart.

Viscount Sinclair stood at the top of the castle with a red wine glass, looking at the billowing wolf smoke rising outside the city, he wanted to take a sip of wine to suppress his shock, but he could not because of the uncontrollable tremor of his right hand.

"Bang!" the delicate pure gin glass slammed against the marble, and the patterns on it suddenly twisted into strange shapes, and then jumped and popped away, making a crisp and pleasant crashing sound.

It was Viscount Sinclair's favorite goblet, but now it's discarded.

After a long silence, Viscount Sinclair asked in a hoarse voice, "Hasn't anyone come to support yet?"

The sergeant standing beside him took a deep breath and shook his head with a wry smile: "Lord Viscount, the surrounding lords are all too busy to take care of themselves, where is the extra manpower to help us." ”

The sergeant said this, as if remembering something, he opened his mouth, and finally swallowed back what he was about to say.

Viscount Sinclair noticed his desire to speak and stopped, and asked in a deep voice, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

When the sergeant heard the command, he sighed silently: "If anyone has the ability to support us, I'm afraid there is only the City of Plenty." ”

The sergeant's words seemed to touch the taboo of Viscount Sinclair, and his face suddenly turned red, and then he roared sharply: "No one is allowed to mention this name to me, and nothing about them is to be mentioned again." ”

Viscount Sinclair's reaction was obviously expected by the sergeant, and he hung his head helplessly and said no more.

At this moment, two soldiers in leather armor climbed up the stairs, and they said happily: "Lord Viscount, we have just received news that Baron Jensen is gathering the army of Aoba Town to rush over to support. ”

Viscount Sinclair was overjoyed when he heard this, he clasped the curtain with both hands, and said hatefully: "At a critical time, it is your own people who are the most effective." ”

However, as soon as the words fell, two soldiers hurriedly climbed up at the bottom of the stairs, they were covered in blood and looked embarrassed, and as soon as they climbed up, they cried out bitterly: "Lord Viscount, something is wrong. ”

Viscount Sinclair heard the three words that the big thing was not good, his heart trembled violently a few times, and he hurriedly reassured the two: "Don't worry, speak slowly." ”

The two soldiers said in a big voice: "Lord Viscount, we just received news that Aoba Town is surrounded by hundreds of middle and high level demons, and now they are holding on, hoping that Lord Viscount can send troops to help." ”

In an instant, Viscount Sinclair only felt that his blood was surging upward, and he was about to lift his Heavenly Spirit Cover.

His face turned red with anger and helplessness, and his eyes quickly became bloodshot.

He staggered to his desk, swept everything on the table to the floor, and then slumped into his chair with his forehead covered in exhaustion.

Just when Viscount Sinclair was exhausted, bad news kept coming.

"Lord Viscount, there are a large number of demons gathering in the direction of the south gate, and it looks like they are about to attack. "Lord Viscount, the demons in the direction of Ximen have begun to attack, and the mercenaries and guards have begun to engage them. ”

At this time, Sinclair's own performance was much calmer than just now, or rather pretending to be calm.

From his trembling voice, it was easy to tell how nervous he was: "Do they want to fight on both sides?

The soldier's throat and eyes were a little dry, and he replied with a shudder: "Many, countless, there are no less than a few thousand low-level demons, and there are hundreds of middle-level and high-level demons. ”

The soldier was terrified, and the sky was pitiful, he had just joined the army for two months, and he had not even received half a cent, so he was going to die miserably here?

He originally wanted to become a reserve soldier in the City of Plenty, but unfortunately the selection there was very strict, and he was not selected several times, so he had to come here to try his luck.

He regretted it very much now, if it weren't for his love of vanity, why should he be a farmer in a city of plenty?

However, there is absolutely no regret medicine to buy in the world, and since you have made a choice, you have to bear the price.

Although Viscount Sinclair was greedy and stingy, he was still a shrewd fellow, and he saw the cowardice of the soldiers, and immediately asked in a deep voice, "Are you afraid?"

The soldier shuddered, and he stumbled back, "No, no." ”

Viscount Sinclair smiled bitterly and patted the soldier's shoulder: "Don't feel ashamed, in fact, I'm also scared, there is no one in the city who is not afraid, but they are better at concealment." ”

With a stunned expression, he glanced at the decoration in the room and sighed, "I'm afraid in a few days, this place will be reduced to ashes." ”

Immediately after, his words changed, and his face became serious: "But even if I accompany the territory to turn into the residue of the flames, I will fight until the last moment, for the sake of my people, for the glory of the family, and for the dignity of the warrior." ”

Viscount Sinclair's words were awe-inspiring, and immediately the blood of several recruits in the room boiled.

The recruits straightened their backs and expressed their willingness to die for the Viscount.

Viscount Sinclair waved his hand: "I don't need you to die, I just need your loyalty, brave soldiers, to fight the demons." ”

The recruits gave a straight salute and turned to leave.

It was only at this time that Viscount Sinclair's body regained its old appearance, he looked at the sergeant beside him, and asked with a gloomy expression, "Is it possible to break through?"

The sergeant's face was slightly stiff, and then he sighed deeply, is this in line with his impression of Lord Viscount.

The sergeant nodded helplessly: "Now that the east gate and north gate are not blocked by demons, it is the best time to escape." ”

Viscount Sinclair immediately decided: "Then hurry up and pack up your things, organize my descendants, let's flee to the north of the kingdom, the king has completely abandoned this land, without the support of the southern army, we can't hold this land alone." ”

He kept looking for a suitable reason for his escape: "Damn the king, damn the Meredith family, if it weren't for them, how could we be in such a miserable situation." ”

Saying this, he hurriedly looked at the sergeant and instructed, "Remember to keep it as secret as possible, so as not to be discovered." ”
