Chapter Seventy-Six: Farewell
After all, Knight Tiger is a civilized person from the Church of Light, not as strange as Agnes.
In the end, nothing extra happened.
He only conveyed his father's request to Duke and Agnes very calmly, and Duke and the two of them naturally did not embarrass him for such a trivial matter.
In the end, he was left alone with Baron Rhein for a short time, and Duke had no interest in eavesdropping on what was said between father and son.
As for the release of Baron Rhine, it is even more impossible, whether as a defeated or as a cultist, he could not be released so easily.
And his final fate may still be the Inquisition of the Church of Light, which is basically an unchangeable fact.
Duke felt a little embarrassed in the face of such a sensible Tiger, and he did not regret catching his father.
It's just that he still used dirty means to seize the title and territory that should have belonged to him, but he didn't expect this guy to be a good person, but the Connaughton region is very important to Duke's development plan, so he can only quietly apologize to him in his heart.
Tiger and his subordinates remained stationed outside the city, unrelated to Duke's belongings, and they were on good terms until the day Agnes was ready to leave.
Three days after Tiger's arrival, in the early morning of Tiger's arrival, Duke washed up early with excitement and excitement, and waited with Lenia and the guards at the north gate facing the Dark Mountains to wait for Agnes and his party.
With Simon and Tiger persuading her, Agnes finally got carried away and planned to start investigating the erosion in the Dark Mountains today.
Duke almost couldn't sleep with excitement when he received the news, thinking that he could finally send this plague god away, he was ready to come and send it off early in the morning, and gave it to His Holiness the Holy Maiden, hoping that she would not come back.
They didn't wait long before more than 20 shadows appeared in their field of vision.
The men, all on white mounts that resembled horses, were hurrying towards the north gate.
After listening to Lenia's explanation, Duke realized that these white mounts are a hybrid of magical beasts and horses specially bred by the church, with excellent speed and stamina, and also have very low magical power, which can deter ordinary horses.
These two dozen or so Warcraft horses alone can pay off all of Duke's assets, and it may not even be enough.
He couldn't help but feel a little envious, he didn't expect that Agnes, a crazy woman, was still a little rich woman.
"Hey, Lord Duke, you're here to give me a ride!"
Agnes, who was a little unhappy walking in front, recognized Duke standing at the gate of the city at a glance, and said with some joy for a while.
Probably because she was going to be a more important person from today, she changed out of the dark robe and hood she had been wearing since the first day of meeting, and replaced it with a high-ranking priest's robe with gold trim on the collar and cuffs.
She also wore a red and white crown dedicated to the saint on her head, and she lost her worldly atmosphere, and finally had the feeling of a saint who did not eat the fireworks of the world.
"Ha, isn't this an acquaintance, and besides, you are also for the peace of my territory, so it stands to reason that you want to give it away. Duke smiled and responded, and said duplicity, and greeted the crowd who had turned over and dismounted.
Agnes was extremely happy, took it out of her sleeve for a while, and then took out a thin notebook and handed it to Duke, who was smiling a little stiffly.
"Oh, this is the travelogue of the past three days, they forgot to give it to you because they were annoyed, you take a good look, and I will test you when I come back." ”
Duke instantly held a mouthful of old blood in his chest and couldn't spit it out, he didn't expect this unlucky saint to have this one, he shouldn't be too angry and ran over to see her off, and the relationship between the two was not close, so what to send.
But in the end, he still didn't say it, and after holding it for a long time, he could only say "yes" and deal with it.
On the other side, the old man Simon also took out a thin booklet and handed it to Lenia, probably a martial arts cheat or something like experience, and babbled some small words that Duke couldn't understand.
Lenia has not been idle these days, she asks Simon for advice whenever she has time, and her own talent and understanding are not bad, and her perseverance and will are also extremely firm, and Simon has deliberately regarded her as a mantle heir.
"Ahem, Your Highness, it's not too early, look at ......" Tiger, who had been standing next to him and had been silent, saw that it had dragged on for a long time, so he coughed lightly and interrupted everyone, reminding Agnes that today's trip was not easy.
Agnes, who was playing a demon but was interrupted, frowned a little dissatisfied: "Okay, okay, let's go now." ”
She turned and got on her horse, and the others followed her and hurried to get ready.
"Lord Duke, remember my command, goodbye!" she waved her hand in a dashing manner, and rushed out as soon as she grabbed the horse's belly, and old man Simon followed with a sigh.
Tiger smiled softly at Duke before leaving, and chased after the guards with the emblem banner representing the Church and the Holy Maiden.
Duke stood at the gate of the city and looked at the smoke and dust in the distance, and his heart was full of joy, and he only felt that his whole body was much more relaxed.
"Lord, it's time for us to go to the South Gate. ”
Lenia was a little melancholy, after all, she and Old Man Simon really got along quite well. However, she finally sorted out her emotions and reminded the lord.
It was not for nothing that Duke only brought Lenia over today, mainly because Vlavich and Joseph also had something to do, and there was another farewell waiting for them at the south gate soon.
However, the farewell on both sides was actually full of joy and harvest for Duke, not sad and sad.
At this time, the south gate was in full swing, in stark contrast to the deserted north gate.
Vlavich was holding a long manifest, one by one to the number of goods on the wagon and the corresponding people in charge of transportation.
On the other side, Joseph also tried his best to turn around his fat body, coordinating the operation of the entire caravan.
Although the whole scene seemed a bit rushed, it was actually carried out in an orderly manner under the transfer of the two.
And this time, the goods of the merchant are actually very simple, that is, Duke's long-planned cement business.
After being interrupted a few times by Agnes, the long-stalled plan finally kicked off at the same time as she left.
When Duke and Lenia arrived at the south gate, Vlavic had fully checked the number of goods and the number of people, and was standing aside waiting for the lord to arrive.
"How's it going, are you ready to go?" asked Duke, looking at a red-faced Josephchi.
"That's natural, I can't wait to go to Itas Market and make a lot of money from those profiteers!"
Joseph waved his right hand vigorously and said with some excitement.
Duke was amused to see the profiteer trying to make a fortune from other profiteers, but in the end the money went into his own pocket, so he was very supportive of Joseph's passion at this time.
Vlavic looked at his colleague who was a little embarrassed, and finally couldn't help but remind: "Please be careful, remember the plan we discussed before." ”
"Ha, don't worry, if you don't have anything else to tell you, we'll go?" said Joseph, softly agreeing, and then turned to ask Duke if he had any other arrangements.
Duke thought for a while, but once again told him to be careful, after all, it was related to the future development plan and his own small treasury, and Joseph was full of promises.
After finally confirming that the lord had no further instructions, he skillfully pulled the whip and slowly left the northern fortress with the convoy with a bang, heading for Ishtar, the largest commercial city in the north.
