"Boss, you're swearing too. Cobb laughed twice and touched his ass to the side.

"Fuck off. ”

Alan glared at Cobb in disgust, and then instructed Locke to find two live mouths to inquire about the situation.

Because the archers and mages in the team were too strong, the soldiers ended the battle before they could get close, so naturally there were no casualties, and Linda and Anne began to look at the enemy.

"Alan, this man is still alive. ”

Linda pointed to the charred Rold and asked, "Do you want to save him?"

Alan didn't answer the question, but leaned over to Lalde's side curiously.

The mage's body is weak, and without the effect of protection, let alone a fireball, even a hammer slamming into the chest will kill him, but he is still alive?

Alan looked carefully at Ralde, who was struggling to breathe, and found that he was holding a half-rolled piece of vellum paper in his hand, and immediately understood.

This guy must have ripped open a magic scroll at the last moment.

"Let's save him, Alan,"

Dinah stepped forward and whispered, "A mage should have enough wealth to pay for the treatment and ransom. ”

In fact, he also wanted to say that if he could get a mage's effect, it would also expand the strength of the Merlin family.

But the strength of this mage lying on the ground is too weak, and Eren himself is a mage, so he probably doesn't look down on this guy.

Now Dinah's subconscious thinks that if she wants to follow Allen, she also needs to talk about talent qualifications.

"Okay, then save it, and if he can't pay enough ransom, kill him again. ”

Although Alan said that he would treat the mage, he didn't let Linda do anything, but just asked Annie to help him treat his wounds.

In his words, every ounce of Linda's mana (Eren rejected the old shaman's claim of the power of the ancestors and classified Linda into the Merlin family's spellcasting team) had to be used on his own people.

Locke's movements were fast, and he had already interrogated all the captives while Alan and the others were discussing how to deal with the mage.

"Young Master, according to the squad leader's report, the Gemeng family's army has gone to Shelter Village!"

Allen's heart tightened, Shelter Village was the most populous village in Merlin's territory, although Gaia had already said that it was likely that the village had been evacuated, but he was still a little worried.

Before he even had time to ask for information about the mage on the ground, Alan shouted, "Khruf!"

"I'm here, my lord!"

"Have your men move this guy into the wagon, then send two teams to watch him closely, and knock him out when he wakes up. If he dares to resist, he will be killed directly!"

"Yes!"

"Kill the rest of the enemy, don't take prisoners!"

This order is not that Alan is venting his anger, but that the opponent's army has eight hundred, and he is going all out to deal with the enemy, and he has no extra energy to take prisoners.

Locke was not relentless, and after Allen gave the order, he had to deal with a few soldier prisoners, and at this time, the captain of the reconnaissance team came to report that two teams of soldiers were rushing here, and it seemed that they were not from the Merlin family.

"I guess I'm here to find this mage. ”

Alan glanced at the guy who was still on the ground, and thought to himself that the Gemeng family took this mage very seriously.

"Hurry up and take everyone away, deal with this place, let our people form a pocket formation, and put the two squads in!"

......

"Brother Lake, what do you say this mage is so delicate that Lord Viscount asks him to do?"

I haven't seen the mage for a long time, which makes the team leader complain.

If this mage hadn't had so much to do, they would have been resting in the village like the rest of the squad now.

"Alright Duweiler, don't go on, it's useless!"

It's not that Lake doesn't complain, it's that he's heard in the tavern that mages have a variety of methods, and he can't tell when what they say will fall into the mage's ears.

Offending a mage is not a wise choice.

Deweiler apparently listened to the eldest brother, and although he was a little reluctant, he kept his mouth shut.

In this way, after a short march forward, a carriage parked by the lake gradually appeared in everyone's field of vision.

After working hard for a long time and finally finding the target, Deweiler was overjoyed, "Brother Lake, is that the carriage of the old mage!"

Lake stopped and looked ahead, it was too far away to make it clear, but if it was, then the mage must be nearby.

"Keep walking, Brother Lake, what are we waiting for?"

Deweyler looked at Lake, who was standing still with a frown, and urged with some confusion.

Lake didn't know what he was waiting for, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Big Ryke?"

"Hmm. ”

In the face of Deweiler's urging, he could not afford to be any longer, so he ordered to move closer to the carriage by the lake, and after walking a short distance, he found that it was indeed the mage's carriage.

However, the closer he got forward, the more doubts became in Ryke's heart.

He suddenly found that the forest by the lake was not the same as he had remembered, and it was eerily quiet.

No, it's not just that.

Lake stopped, frowned, and took a deep breath, not feeling the peculiar smell of the forest at all, but ......

"It's the smell of blood! Retreat! It's an ambush!"

The soldiers reacted quickly, but not fast enough, and several arrows flew out of the forest, followed by figures scurrying, and countless enemies poured out!

At the same time, the carriage behind Lake suddenly made a strange noise, and a tall man with a long-handled giant hammer rushed out in an instant!

"Eat me with a hammer!"

The strong man is fierce, and at the same time it is not slow for Lake, and when he can't dodge, he can only block the long sword in his hand, but he only hears a dull sound, and Lake suddenly flies out upside down!

"Ryker!"

It all happened so quickly that by the time Deweyler could react, it was too late, and a moment later he had followed in Lake's footsteps and was knocked away with a hammer.

Surrounded by Rune Knights and Half-Elves, these two squads were no match at all, and it didn't take much time for them to become captives of Allen.

These people were very cooperative when they saw that there was no room for resistance, and Alan had a little appreciation for Lake's caution, so they didn't embarrass them.

On top of that, all of Allen's current focus is on the people of Shelter Village have withdrawn, and Estan has killed the dozen or so old men who don't want to leave.

"That viscount is not a nobleman at all!"

After listening to the soldier's confession, Dinah was full of disgust for Estan and said, "It's just a devil!"

"The devil is generally fond of deception, and he acts more like a demon. ”

Although there was a smile on Allen's face, there was coldness in his tone.

Knowing what Estan was doing, he stopped being anxious and told everyone to rest on the spot, and then he wrote a letter to Gaia.

"Send the letter back to Mussenburg and give it to Osman, and remember to tell her to hurry up. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Gaia put his hand on his chest and put the letter away, turning and running towards Fort Mussen.

Then Alan turned to the captives who were guarded by the soldiers, glanced at them, and spoke,

"Is any of you willing to work for me?"
