Chapter 50: The True Lies

"The businessmen are only looking for profit, and as long as we promise them a few businesses in Borivia, it doesn't matter to them. The Countess said unappediently.

Madame's analysis makes perfect sense. Suddenly, Merlin's voice came from outside the door.

The tent curtain was thrown open, and a light and shadow flew in, and it fell to the ground with a 'pop', and shattered, and suddenly a puff of smoke rose up, and the four people in the tent immediately went limp, and fell to the ground involuntarily, except for the countess, who was slightly better—she was slumped in the chair.

The curtain opened from the outside, and Merlin appeared in the doorway, and as soon as she raised her hand, a small whirlwind wrapped up the smoke and sent it out of the tent.

"You...... What do you want to do?" asked the Countess with a dark face, her eyes flashing with panic that could not be concealed.

Although the potion used by Merlin can paralyze people's whole body, it does not affect thinking and speech...... The countess knew that despite Merlin's young age, the sorcerer's heart and nature could not be measured by common sense, but she had killed the official wizard who had just been promoted by the Feller family, and the hatred between the two sides could not be resolved at all.

"Do what you want to do. Merlin smiled faintly.

Her eyes wandered around the tent, and she walked over to the makeshift bed, and leaned down to drag out a very delicate mahogany box from under the bed, which was also branded with the coat of arms of the Feller family.

Merlin opened it and looked at it, and it contained a lot of gold and silver coins, as well as some jewelry and clothing.

"Huh, what is this?" Merlin found a wooden box under her clothes, she thought it was some precious jewelry, but when she opened it, it was a very delicate mask, the texture was very soft, and it also exuded a faint energy smell.

"This is a magic magic weapon, 'True Lies', made from the skin of a succubus, which can change its appearance at will, hide its own aura, and can also simulate the aura of the imitator. Lord Merlin, please spare our mother and son, this witch weapon is yours!" pleaded the countess.

"You don't need to say it, it's mine too, so why exchange it?" Merlin sneered, put the mask back in the box, and turned and walked out of the tent.

"My lord, what's going on?"

Outside the tent, Krupp and Mobick stood there with a few guards looking uneasy, and they were puzzled when they saw Merlin come out of the countess's tent.

"Countess Feller's attempt to collude with the robbers was taken down by me and handed over to you to deal with, and if only one of these people escapes, the consequences will be unimaginable. Merlin said with a cold face, and returned to her tent.

What the?

The Countess colluded with the robbers?

Don't make a big joke, okay?

Krupp and Mobick looked at each other, and the latter motioned for one of the guards to come over and check...... After a while, the guard stumbled back and reported, "Captain, all dead......

'Phew!'

Mobick spat at him, "Can you speak?"

The guard gasped for a moment, and didn't bother to wipe his face, and said, "Captain, the countess and her son were both enchanted with drugs, and several of the guards were also killed. ”

"What?"

Both Krupp and Mobick were shocked and rushed into the countess's tent......

Merlin half-leaned on the bed, flipping through a book on the country and geography, she seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, and flipped through it with relish, as if she did not hear the commotion outside...... After a while, a rush of footsteps stopped outside the tent, and Krupp's voice was heard: "My lord, have you rested?"

"Come in. Merlin sat up straight, put down her book, and said.

Krupp and Mobick walked in, the latter still smelling of blood, only to see Merlin with a flattering smile on their faces.

"My lord, everything outside is taken care of. Krupp said.

"How?" asked Merlin lightly.

"The Countess of Phil colluded with the robbers, and her son and men were accomplices, and the crowd in the caravan was so angry that they were put to death with a sword. Mobick replied.

"My lord, considering the reputation of the Feller family, this matter will not be announced to the public, and it is right that they were attacked and killed by robbers. In addition, considering the loss of the caravan, the goods they carried were divided equally. ”

Krupp took out a deerskin bag: "Here are a few pieces of jewelry that are quite good to collect, and I will pick them out separately and present them to adults." ”

"I have a heart. Merlin was not polite, and put away the buckskin pocket.

The three of them were tacit, and after Krupp and Mobick left, the corners of Merlin's mouth curved slightly, and she casually extinguished the candle.

When they set off the next day, the people in the caravan were all in high spirits, after all, they had made a windfall, only the women were still a little nervous, but not long after they got on the road, the nervous look on their faces gradually disappeared.

......

The distant green hills were shrouded in a vast white mist, and the narrow roads were lined with broad-leaved plants, perhaps because of the abundant rainfall, which grew quite luxuriantly, and the leaves of these plants grew much wider than those found elsewhere.

Because the vegetation was quite dense and the various plants were luxuriant, the plants were close together, and as the mighty wind blew, the plants crowded and rubbed against each other, making a rustling sound that was almost like the waves caused by the trees.

Merlin, who sat quietly on the carriage, looked through the open window beside her and looked out of the carriage, surrounded by leaves falling from the trees due to a heavy rain that had just fallen. As the carriage galloped, muddy water splashed on the ground. Whenever a fresh breeze blows, a drizzle of rain rises in the woods.

After the rain, there is a fragrant smell floating in the woods, which seems to be the fragrance of countless flowers mixed and stirred by the rain, and emitted into the air with the steaming water vapor.

Despite the muddy road, the coachman was very skillful, and as the carriage speeded, the caravan soon made its way up an avenue, and the number of vehicles on the road gradually increased, but all the carriages were almost all the same, and all the carriages were covered with fallen leaves of various colors and shapes, and the side walls of the carriages, as well as the windows, were covered with splashed mud. The wagons that go out during the rainy season are all extremely awkward.
