It didn't take long for the half-elf captain to hand the report to Horn, and after reading it, he handed it to Ou Siman who was cross-legged next to him.

"I won't look at it, Uncle Horn, and I'm sure the oil of more than a thousand gold coins must have sent the viscount a surprise. ”

She bought a total of 2,000 gold coins of fire oil this time, basically looted the entire Gray Wing City, and gave most of it to the Gemeng family as a meeting gift, and the other half stayed in Musenburg to defend the city.

"Well, the vanguard of the Gemeng family and a hundred-man brigade were basically buried in the flames.

Of course, the most important thing is that the morale of the army has been cut by most of it. ”

Horn smiled and put the report aside, this time thanks to Othman's idea, otherwise he might have stuck to Fort Musensham according to his temperament.

"Let's dine first. ”

"Hmm. ”

Osman answered, letting Horn and Fanny go ahead.

Although she is now a baron and usually behaves more casually in Fort Mussen, she still respects her elders to Horn.

At the dining table, Ou Siman quickly cut the steak on the plate into small pieces and put it in her mouth, she was indeed hungry after waiting for so long.

After swallowing what was in her mouth, she wiped her mouth.

"Uncle Horn, if you want me to say, you should have taken my advice and poisoned it from the beginning. ”

As soon as these words came out, Hannah, who was sitting next to her, was speechless, and she, the baron, was really reluctant to poison her.

Horn smiled, he understood what Ou Siman meant, poisoning can indeed cause more damage, if Alan was there, he should have made such a decision, but he also had his own considerations in mind.

"If you poison the well water, the water source in that village may be polluted, and it may not be really uninhabitable. ”

If the house burns down, it can be rebuilt, but if the water source is polluted, it is difficult to control it.

"The location of the village in the Silver Pine Hills is a key junction, and Alan had planned to move the village out and set up a sentry post there, but it didn't really matter if it was pollution or not. ”

"It's been so long in that village, it's not so easy to relocate, so you still have to come little by little. ”

Maybe because he is middle-aged, Horn still thinks it's better not to be too radical and change slowly.

Of course, Alan is now a baron, and it is up to him to decide what to do in the end.

"Well, it's true that there are a lot of people who don't want to leave where they live. ”

Ou Siman also understood Horn's thoughts, after all, the Merlin family had come over this way for so many years, under the management of traditional conservative lords.

"What are we going to do next?"

Although Fanny didn't like Ou Siman very much, she had to admit that this girl was very active, if it wasn't for Ou Siman to arrange the plan, Fanny would have wanted to go back to the family to borrow the army.

"It's hard to keep the half-elf archers harassing, but this time it's going to be divided into three teams, as long as the army of the Gemon family doesn't rest. ”

Horn nodded thoughtfully, which would slow down their march considerably.

Ou Siman took a sip of sour juice, suddenly thought of something, and said without having time to wipe his mouth: "The other five rune knights are here, right?"

"Yes, they are all waiting for orders in Fort Mussen. ”

Ou Siman nodded, turned his head to look at Hannah who was cutting the steak,

"Work hard at night, take those five rune knights, and select thirty of the strongest guards to be ready to meet the archers at any time.

Estan reckoned that he was so angry that he might do something. Remember, those thirty guards can be sacrificed at the critical moment, but the Half-Elf Archer and Rune Knight must be brought back!"

This is not racism, but because the latter two are elites in the hands of Allen, and Ou Siman must not let them lose in his own hands.

"Yes, I'll do it now. ”

Hannah didn't care about table manners, and turned away after giving a brief salute to Horn and Fanny.

Horn stared at Ou Siman, this kid's mind was really too heavy, if it weren't for Alan telling Horn before he left that she could fully believe it, he really wouldn't dare to keep Ou Siman.

But he thought about it, and with such a person by Allen's side, he would be able to relax.

"Eh, Uncle Horn, do I have dirt on my face?"

Seeing that Horn had been staring at him, Ou Siman hurriedly wiped his face.

"No, no, come, try this mushroom soup. ”

Horn laughed as he pondered which of the girls around him would Ellen choose......

......

"Yawn!"

At night, Alan, who was teaching Dinah how to draw a magic array by the campfire, suddenly sneezed.

Got a cold?

Alan immediately shook his head, although the mage's physique is not good, but he has really never heard of a cold, and there is no such disease in this world.

"What's wrong?"

Dinah looked at him suspiciously, Alan had sneezed several times today, "Did you get poisoned in the forest?"

Alan denied it with a smile, the poisoning couldn't be just himself, "Maybe someone misses me?"

"Huh?"

"Nothing, let's move on. ”

Naturally, Dinah didn't know about some of the customs of the other world, and Alan also passed by, after all, Khruf was still squatting outside the cave waiting for this great power rune.

Two hours later, the night was already late, and Dinah had finally completed the Great Power Rune, her success rate was now one in seven, and as long as Eren was there, she wouldn't make any more mistakes at the last crucial point.

However, for the sake of greater efficiency and control, Alan will still let Dinah continue to make high-level semi-finished products, so that the two of them can draw with all their strength, and if there are enough materials, they can complete six white runes in a day.

If Eren can make up for the shortcomings of magic, the number will increase.

Alan walked out of the cave, and Khruf was still waiting in good spirits, without the slightest fatigue.

"Your Excellency!"

Seeing Eren come out, the gnoll leader immediately stood up, full of anticipation.

"You're running out of paralyzing poison, and you're probably going to have to endure some pain. Why don't you wait until you go back......"

They were now at the same location as they were in the former Hot Wind Forest, and they would be back in the Merlin family in a few days.

"No, my lord, I'm not afraid of pain!" replied Khruf in a hurry.

"You're quieter, everyone else is asleep!"

Alan whispered, then waved his hand at him and motioned for him to enter the cave.

About twenty minutes later, Khruf had another Great Power Rune on his body.

"After returning to the territory, you must bathe frequently, preferably once a week, otherwise the runes will not have a chance with the gnolls!"

Alan frowned as he removed the nasal congestion, the point is, even if the nose can be blocked, the eyes can't be blocked!

"Yes, sir!"

Khruf didn't understand why the runes had anything to do with bathing, but he had to abide by what Eren said.

Feeling the power in his body, Khruf said goodbye to Alan and Dinah Shili, and then ran out of the cave in excitement.

Dinah removed the nasal congestion and asked softly: "Alan, can I not participate in the rune loading process in the future......"

"How's that going to work?!"

As soon as these words came out, Alan suddenly realized that he was excited, and quickly changed his words,

"Well, you can take care of the radius elves and all the other women first, they love to be clean, and I don't have to make them undress every time I load runes. ”

Eren decided that he must stabilize Dinah, otherwise he would not be able to free himself from loading runes for the rest of his life.
