Chapter 54: It's Really a Money Burning Thing!
Carey patted Pierre on the shoulder: "Don't worry, he'll always come back again." Roy is a lord who keeps his promises, and he will definitely do his best to help you. ”
Pierre nodded, picking up his frustration: "Let's go." ”
The group carefully walked through Giethoorn again.
After returning to the place where the horses were parked, Carey hesitated and said to his two men, "It is not appropriate for you two to escort Monsieur Pierre back to Yongguang and then take him to the front. ”
"Okay, sir......"
......
In Vane's manor, after Carey and his party left, two black tentacles suddenly protruded from the hollow eye holes of the idol.
The tentacles spread wildly along the surface of the idol, and within a few moments, the white idol was completely engulfed by darkness.
The dark red mysterious rune suddenly flickered violently around the idol.
And inside Van Manor, in an extremely inconspicuous dilapidated hut, a pair of dark red giant eyes suddenly opened, and something slowly stood up, directly breaking the roof of the dilapidated hut. That's a black giant!
After the black giant crashed into the house in a frenzy, he did not hesitate to run in the direction where the idol was. A lump of muddy stuff kept falling from him, falling to the ground with a corrosive sound of "snorting".
Bang!
Even the blue-gray stone walls could not stop him, and the originally delicate small manor suddenly began to collapse.
As if instructed to do so, he pulled out the masonry of the house, grabbed the idol with precision, and stuffed it directly into his body. Compared to the black giant, which is more than four meters tall, the idol looks very fragile.
As the idol fused, the black giant suddenly let out a shout.
He discerned the next direction and strode out of Giethoorn.
When the villagers heard the movement from the village chief's manor, they all ran out curiously to check it. But some of the villagers instantly lost their minds when they saw the giant. Hollow-eyed, they silently followed the giant and slowly left the village.
The rest of the villagers were overwhelmed by the scene and fled back to their houses screaming. Boldly peeking through the crack in the door, the black giant went straight through Giethoorn and headed towards the barren forest......
......
Cliff looked around the kneeling man, "Can your ability block any attack?"
"No, Lord Baron, I can only block attacks similar to my physical strength, or I won't be caught by you. The kneeling man replied.
"Oh, so I want you to work, and I'm going to have to treat you to a full meal again?"
"My lord, what a bargain it would be if a meal would allow me to play a small and insignificant role in exchange for a precious victory. ”
"Hmm...... What's your name?" asked Cliff with a nod of agreement, smiling.
"My lord, the villain's name is Fidin. Because I chanted a song in your territory and was accused of ramming you, ......," Fideon shrugged, "and I had the privilege of meeting you." ”
"Well, you're still a talented bard?" Cliff looked at the unkempt and ragged Ferdinh in front of him, with some surprise.
"If you're interested, I can sing along with it. Your prison lacks nothing but comfort, and I don't think you'll let me go back to that place again. ”
Smack——
One-eyed slapped him directly in the face, causing him to tilt his head and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Your life is not up to you now!
"Hehehe......" Fideon smiled, but no longer squeaked.
"Come, go and prepare a table of wine and feast, and let him be fed!" Cliff beckoned and ordered.
"My lord, I will charge him directly, I don't believe that he dares to play such a little clever, and I don't have to listen to his crazy words. ”
Cliff raised his hand to stop One-Eye's tugging at Fidin, and he looked at the sky: "It's getting dark, and there's no hurry...... Let the little cubs of Yongguang be proud for a while!"
"Their weapons can crush my cavalry from fifty meters away, are you confident that you can stop their attacks?" Cliff crouched down and patted Fidien on the cheek.
"Of course. If I can't stop it, I'm afraid this will be my last meal, and I want to live longer. Fidien spat on the ground again and replied vaguely.
"Daddy!"
At this moment, a childish voice came from behind Cliff.
Fidien saw the baron's cold face melt in an instant, and he smiled a somewhat exaggerated and ugly smile, and struggled to get back to his feet on his knees.
"Oh, my dear darling!" Cliff took two quick steps back, hugging his son as he ran.
"Baby, didn't I tell you not to come here? It's dangerous...... What if you run so fast and fall?!" Cliff pulled out a cotton handkerchief from under the leather armor on his chest and wiped the fine sweat from the child's forehead, and said distressed and reproachful.
"He's been clamoring to come over and see his heroic father, I can't stop him, sorry. Behind the little boy, a woman in a beige dress spoke. She had a soft face, a smiling brow, and a silver forehead encrusted with emeralds clinging to her long hair.
After she finished speaking, she saluted gracefully: "My lord, how is the situation?"
"Oh, my lady, they're just a bunch of little kids who don't even have their hair on them! ”
"Dad, when I grow up, I want to protect the people like you. The child, who was held in Cliff's arms, made several chopping motions in high spirits.
Cliff laughed for a while before he said happily, "Of course, my darling, you are my child!
With the child in his arms and Fidien in one eye, Cliff walked towards the interior of the castle.
......
By the time Carey returned to camp, he learned that there had been a head-on confrontation between the two sides.
In this battle, many recruits increased their confidence and realized the role of muskets in warfare.
They had been training for less than a month, and they weren't even worthy of shining the shoes of veterans in other city-states.
But here, too, they feel that they have a role to play.
It was getting dark, and Iter withdrew to the camp with his artillery. After the placement, one cannon was facing the rear, and the other was facing Fort White Eagle.
Inside Roy's Tent,
"Are you saying that the water monsters in Ante Village are really related to White Eagle Castle?"
"Mr. Carlisle has told me that his apprentice, Dan, is the unlucky man who was cursed to be a water monster, and that his butler is called Vain, and I don't think I'm wrong. ”
"It seems that after stealing Elisian's property and wife, he fled to Fort White Eagle, and made a deal with Baron Cliff to become the mayor of Giethoorn. ”
Roy said to himself.
Carey thought of Elisian, who was handsome out of the sky, but was still green-faced, and hesitated and said, "But I didn't see Elisian's wife there......"
"Don't worry, once you know your whereabouts, it's only a matter of time before you find someone...... The firearms you've made are getting more and more terrifying. Iter reported that if a cannon exploded in a densely populated position, dozens of people would be killed or wounded. ”
"I understand what you mean, ahem, a cost of about fifty gold coins, you ......"
"When I didn't say it!"
Roy let out a sigh as he thought of It's sidekicks excitedly reporting to him that three shells had been fired each...... Looks like they need to be reminded.
What a money-burning thing!
