Chapter 51: The Monster's Worries
"I'm sure Roarke, Daddy saw them, really. Wormwood nodded vigorously.
"Got it. Roque replied, his gaze falling to Murdan, the word war directly in his mind.
"Your Excellency, why don't I take a trip?"
Murdan asked earnestly, and he saw the worry in Roque's eyes.
Roque's head shook a little helplessly, although the news brought by Wormwood was shocking enough, but his set plan must be carried out, Murdan could not leave, but he could change someone to collect clues.
"Murdan's story about wormwood, have you ever been exposed to similar incidents before?"
"My lord, does it matter if the demonic beasts are becoming more and more powerful?" asked Murdan, who pondered for a moment.
"When did you find out?"
"A few months ago, the first-level blood porcupines almost injured me, and I can swear they can't be that strong. Murdan voiced his concerns.
"The last time Vader spoke to me, he said that there was a war going on in the West Marsh Principality, and the source was the appearance of monsters, and the originally gentle and cute rabbit turned into a man-eating demon in the blink of an eye. Roque said earnestly, the worry in his eyes even more.
"What do you mean, my lord?" said Murdan, a look of horror as he did not dare to think further.
"The war in Gzworker is coming, and these monsters may be the fuse. Roque nodded deeply.
"If that's the case, then why didn't they send a notice to all of humanity, and besides, the five empires are too calm. "Murdan's is a little unacceptable.
"Maybe they've been on the move for a long time, silently looking for a solution, or they've been delayed by something else, no one knows, but I'm sure the wizards have been trying, after all, they hold the truth in their hands. ”
"As for the five empires, judging from what Yage told me last time, they are not indifferent, but they have discovered something, but they can't make it public until they are absolutely sure, otherwise the whole of Gzwalker will be in a panic, and that would be too bad. ”
Roque explained carefully, he didn't know if the town of Miral was the first stop for those monsters, or if the entire Peak Duchy had been affected, but either way it would be a terrible thing for him.
"My lord, I'm so ashamed that I didn't know that such a terrible thing had happened. Murdan was ashamed, and he couldn't be blamed for it, where was there time to pay attention to the changes around him during the time he was on the run.
"Don't mind, if Yag and Vader hadn't told me this, I'd still be in the dark. Roque sighed in relief, and then his eyes fell on Fili and Wormwood.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine, have breakfast. ”
Fili and Wormwood nodded, they only half understood Roque's conversation with Murdan, but they got to the point, which was that something terrible was about to happen.
"My lord, it seems that you have to prepare early, I think the Black Thorn Manor will not be able to stop those monsters, and maybe the town of Miral will be in danger. Murdan cautiously suggested that even with the presence of the mighty Randolph, the town had no fortifications at all.
"It's time to prepare, but I'm determined to get the treasures of the manor, and I hope time will be on my side. Roc understood Murdan's thoughts, compared to the town of Miral, Morpheus City was much safer, after all, there were lords there.
It is advantageous to go to the city early, if the disaster breaks out completely, I am afraid that the lord should have to control the refugees who enter the city, and the congested city is very unfavorable for his control, and it is easy to cause riots.
"My lord, I think Randolph should be made aware of this news so that Miral can be prepared. "Murdan's impression of this mayor is not very good, the two have completely different positions, but this matter is very important, and the other party has the right to know.
"Do you think he doesn't know, I'm afraid he's racking his brains all the time to think of a solution. Roque smiled, in fact, he had another guess in his mind.
Maybe Randolph knew about the monster much earlier than he did, and he hadn't taken any countermeasures until now, and there was only one result, that is, someone gave an order not to act rashly for the time being.
"Those who live in the high walls will never understand the gravity of the situation, because they are too lazy to go out and see. ”
The breakfast was rather uneasy, and instead of leaving immediately after arriving outside the manor, Roque called Yag and Vader aside.
"When I went to town, there was an important thing that needed to be done. Roque said the purpose directly.
"My lord, what do you need us to do?"
Yag and Vader were puzzled at the same time, and they could hear it, and the other party accentuated the two important words.
"There is a monster in a village belonging to the manor, and some poor people have been eaten, I want one of you to take a few swordsmen to investigate and tell me the results as soon as possible. ”
Yag and Vader understood in an instant, and they looked at each other, both seeing a solemn look in each other's eyes.
"Leave it to me, sir. Yag spoke.
Vader just wanted to speak, but he looked at the other person and finally chose to bow his head slightly.
"The safety of Vader Manor is up to you, Yag will take Wormwood's father with him in a moment, he knows where the village is, and you must keep him safe. Roque commanded.
"Yes, my lord!"
"Don't worry, sir!"
The Black Thorn Carriage has finally set off, and the people of the town are looking forward to it, the energy of the Consulate is very strong, and everyone regards today as a lucky day for the little girls, because they are about to receive the blessing of Lord Roque.
The nobles were a little hesitant, especially Gabriel, and from the enemy's point of view, Roque's approach seemed to have an ulterior purpose.
They are afraid that this will be a trap, and before they fall into it, they can think about how to deal with it, and if they have already fallen into it, then it will be too late.
Unknowingly, these nobles have come to a consensus that they need the first person to eat the apple, so they are all watching Gabriel.
"Someone. ”
"Sir, what do you command?"
"Arrange for those little girls to go to the Goblin Tavern for coffee. ”
"Yes. ”
It wasn't a difficult decision to make, but Gabriel had been tortured to the point of staying awake last night, and in the middle of the night, Randolph suddenly arrived, leaving nothing but a word.
"Roque released his kindness, I hope you will be generous, otherwise I will be very embarrassed, although rest assured, I can guarantee this. ”
It wasn't a threatening word, but it was enough to get Gabriel's attention, and Randolph's position in the small town of Miral was unshakable, and the nobles knew it very well.
The news soon reached the ears of the other nobles, and as for what they would do, it was not something for Gabriel to worry about.
At this time, in front of the door of the goblin tavern, the crowd was gathering, and they were discussing with each other with great interest, no one wanted to miss such a meaningful thing.
The little girls who arrived, their eyes were full of anticipation, and they had a sweet smile on their faces, and they were grateful to Roque.
As the carriage arrived, the crowd retreated, and as soon as Roque got out of the car, there was a warm applause around him, and he didn't know who started it first.
"Thank you, Lord Roque. ”
"Merciful and generous Lord Roque, I wish you all the best. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Roque, for inviting us to coffee. ”
Facing the enthusiastic civilians, Roque smiled and waved his hand, and then instructed the servants to carry the supplies on the cart.
"Good morning, Roque. Hera opened the door and walked out.
"Good morning Hera, I've been busy today. Roque said with a smile.
"It's my pleasure. ”
Everything went very smoothly, and after all the supplies were moved, the carriage was driven away by the servants, and it would have taken up too much space if it had been left in place.
Piev stood at the doorway with a maid, looked at the crowd, and then at the people who were approaching not far away, and the pride in his heart arose, and he was given the task of maintaining order today.
