It all happened so quickly that it was only after Locke fell that there was a burst of exclamations on the training ground, which was clearly beyond everyone's expectations.

They had no idea what was going on, how Victor, who had always had the upper hand, was suddenly stabbed to death.

"This ...... How is this possible......"

The death of Victor had a huge impact on Ridan, and if it weren't for the help of his entourage, he might have fallen to the ground.

What he cared about now was not the honor of the family, but his own situation after Victor's death, and the ridicule of his future siblings.

Li Dan was extremely remorseful, it was obviously just a duel, why did he still kill someone?

Of course, no matter how poor the Dis family is, it is also an earl family, and they don't care too much about the life or death of a fifth-level swordsman, but Lidan cares, this is one of his few strengths.

At this time, Allen, who was standing on the other side of Field, seemed to have suddenly reacted, and hurriedly ran forward to check Locke's condition, and his face was a little embarrassed.

Alan immediately asked Cobb to pick up Locke, and then he hurried to Field,

"Baron Field, my guard is seriously injured, can you find a room for him to rest first?"

"Of course!"

Field waved over to the butler and instructed him to take Alan and his party to the guest room.

"There's a doctor in Golden Spike Castle, do you want me to let him take a look at your knight?"

"Thank you for your generosity, but no,"

Alan shook his head, "Dinah is also a doctor, she can take care of it." ”

"Since Miss Dinah is here, then I am relieved. ”

"Thank you again, Baron Field, for I will take the knight to rest first. ”

After the two barons nodded to each other, Alan pulled Dinah away in a hurry.

"Interesting. ”

Seeing Allen's departing figure, Ost also hurriedly followed, and Field instructed the servants to clean up the training ground, and by the way, comforted Ridan, who had not yet recovered.

......

"Your Excellency, these rooms are for you and your guards. ”

"Thank you for your hard work. ”

Alan nodded, and asked Cobb to carry Locke into the room and put him on the bed, while Dinah took care of it a little helplessly.

"You're kind to you, Lord Baron, then you can rest first, and I'll be waiting at the top of the stairs below this floor, and you can tell me anything at any time. ”

"Well, good. ”

With Alan's permission, the servant respectfully bowed and left, while Cobb consciously closed the door and guarded the door.

"I never said I was a physician myself, Alan, why would you refuse Baron Field's kindness?"

Looking at Locke lying on the bed, Dinah's face was full of anxiety, "What now?"

"Shhh

Alan smiled slightly, walked to the side of the bed and patted Locke on the shoulder, "Okay, Uncle Locke, it's time to wake up." ”

Dinah rolled her eyes helplessly, "Alan, don't be kidding......"

Before she could finish speaking, Locke suddenly straightened up, almost screaming in fright.

"Young master, this acting is too difficult, it's even more difficult than a real fight. ”

Locke couldn't help but complain when he came together, if this was a real fight, he would be able to kill that Victor with a few swords after advancing to level six, but this scene almost didn't play him to death.

"Uncle Locke, are you taking the risk yourself?"

Alan smiled bitterly: "I originally thought that you would be injured a little more, pretend to be seriously injured and desperately break out, just cut off Victor's hands and feet, but you came to such a thrilling move, even I sweated for you!"

"Maybe a little proud lately, haha......"

In fact, Locke himself didn't realize that as the runes in his body continued to grow in the fierce battle, and his confidence became stronger and stronger, he instinctively chose the way to take risks.

"Alan, why did you let Uncle Locke show weakness......"

After listening to the conversation between the two, Dinah already understood, but she was still a little puzzled.

Instead of answering Dinah's question, Alan asked rhetorically, "You said that you could say anything before, does it still count now?"

"Of course!"

"Then you don't care about anything, anyway, this time you are in the same boat with me...... After conspiring together, I will not only teach you to fish, but I will also teach you to fish!"

“...... What do you mean?"

“......”

Alan habitually said the words of his hometown, and then quickly explained: "Help you improve your strength and teach you to draw a magic array." ”

"Good!" Dinah was overjoyed and resolutely agreed.

For the granddaughter of the Iron Princess, everything on the continent Dinah has always wanted, and everything is under her control, except for the power of magic.

And now, she finally got her wish!

"Well, then hurry up and help take off Locke's armor and hang it on the shelf. ”

"Uh-huh. ”

Dinah didn't ask why now, and Alan did whatever she told her to do.

Just as the three of them were busy removing the half-body armor, Cobb's rough voice suddenly sounded.

"Young Master, Mr. Oster...... The young lady is here. ”

Oster, who was dressed in women's clothes in front of him, made Cobb scratch his head involuntarily, and his thinking was suddenly a little confused.

Alan in the room answered and then walked out, looked her up and down carefully, and pulled her into the empty room next to her.

Originally, he wanted to say a few sarcastic sentences first, but he didn't think of a suitable idea for a while.

Could it be that Oss is a sissy? This seems to be a compliment to her now......

"Why did you let Locke pretend to be seriously injured?"

Before Alan could think of the topic of sarcasm, Oster was the first to ask, "What do you want to do?"

Locke had captured Hannah before, so Oster naturally knew his true strength, so he didn't plan to hide it from her at all, and he needed her help.

Alan walked up to Orster's side, leaned down against her ear, and said one thing after another, making Orster's eyes shine brighter and brighter.

"You're really ...... How bold!"

Alan spread his hands, "No way, you didn't force it?"

"If you tell me everything so frankly, aren't you afraid that I won't agree?"

"It's okay, if you don't agree, I'll kill you right here, and then take someone to leave Golden Spike Fort immediately. ”

Alan seemed to have known that Oster would ask such a question, and replied without thinking: "Then your death may become the fuse of the war, and I will do my best to end the war before the Imperial Investigation Team comes down." ”

“...... You're being honest. ”

Ignoring the threat in Oster's conversation, he continued, "What if I pretend to say yes and then tell Field?"

"From now on, I won't let you out of my sight, as long as you have any abnormal movements, I promise you will die first. ”

Alan shook his head, "Okay, stop asking these stupid questions, you're a smart person, how can you do stupid things?"

"Well, I won't ask. ”

Oster pouted, "Can you tell me when you had this plan?"

"After you're convinced that you're a woman, and you've made a promise to me. ”

Alan thought about it for a moment and added, "Actually, it's not a plan, it's mainly a step-by-step plan." ”

In the aristocracy, unless a woman is strong enough to influence the fate of a family, she will eventually be reduced to a tool.

And Olster asked Alan to help her at a critical time, he must have wanted to change the fate of this tool, and the best way to change his fate is to hold power in his own hands.

However, at that time, Alan had no other plans except for one thought, and it was not until Miriam came to tell him that Field had asked Olster to continue plotting against Rocky Valley, and that Olster was placed under house arrest.

"By the way, the Peters family wants Rocky Valley so much, what is in it?"

"Field discovered a salt mine there. ”

"Salt mines?"

Hearing Oster's answer, Alan was a little disappointed, he thought it was some kind of gold mine.

Alan really didn't know much about these things, but he felt that since a merchant family wanted this salt mine so much, it must be profitable.

"Is that the usual kind of salt?"

"Allen, don't look down on this salt mine, salt is very valuable in non-salt-producing areas like the western and northern provinces!"

Oster thought back for a moment and added, "And the last time Field said that he leaked his mouth, I vaguely heard that the salt mine in this Troubled Stone Valley was still asked by an adult!"

"It's an adult......

Alan frowned as he thought about Oster's words, and suddenly felt that things were not so simple......
