In Lear's memory, Hopkins was a family of marquises, and the reason why this family was called cannibals was because after killing their opponents, they used to lift their opponents' skulls and eat their opponents' brains. The title of brain-eater is too terrifying, it is a secret statement, so the Hopkins family is called "cannibals".

The reason why this perverted family stands tall is because there was a Juggernaut among the "Cannibals", and the nobles with the bloodline of the Juggernaut are specially protected by the Empire.

No one knows how powerful the cannibal family is, but the forces that tried to challenge the cannibals are all falling apart. Every nobleman knew that it was better to provoke the Emperor than to provoke a cannibal.

Lear recalls the scene just now, and the things that had been thought strange before suddenly become clear—why the leader of the pursuers stalled for time, why he anxiously looked back before the battle, and everything was explained. Even if the pursuer does not send a magician, he should send a swordsman.

Catherine was disheartened in the face of the betrayal of her own people, but when a powerful foreign enemy appeared, she immediately regained her true character as a regimental commander, and she had a natural desire to protect her own people.

"Dear 'cannibal', I heard that your family has a ransom policy, and we will pay 10,000 gold carats to buy it...... Buy back our brains. For the sake of the Supreme Golden Carat, please forgive us, Venerable Brain Eater. Catherine remembered what her father had told her.

Pratt smiled and said, "I didn't expect such a beautiful lady to respect us braineaters so much." The first time I saw you, I wanted you to be one of the braineaters – sorry, though. I delayed the mission to chase the blue-eyed snow fox, and now that I meet you, I can't delay it any longer, and most importantly, I'm out hunting, and among you, only your brain can let me enter. ”

Catherine's body trembled, and she asked sharply, "It can't be all snow fox's blood on your body, you found our camp for the wounded?"

Pratt stuck out his tongue and licked his lower lip and said, "Your wisdom makes the brain more fragrant, and I can't wait." ”

Lear knew that there was no way to do this, and said to the five traitors, "Take up your sword, if you return to Dieter City, you will still be mercenaries of the firelight, and you will stay as you want to go." 'Cannibal' Hopkins never leaves a mouth alive, you can't escape from the hands of a swordsman, we can only find a way out if we cooperate to kill him!"

"If you don't want to die, pick up your sword!, don't forget that you're a mercenary!" Catherine exclaimed.

"I don't want to die!" a mercenary with a broken left arm turned around and ran, and the other four immediately scattered like lost dogs.

Catherine may spare them, but the cannibals will not, they don't have the courage to fight, they can only flee.

Catherine took a long breath and said, "Susan, Lear, you run first, I can at least hold him off for a while." ”

Lear killed one after another, his heart was full of negative emotions, and he said pessimistically, "It's useless, if it is useful to escape, we will not be caught up by him." I've heard of the blue-eyed snow fox, it's a very fast running magical beast, and it can even use wind magic to accelerate, it can't escape, what can we do! The most important thing is that I can't watch my inheritance knight die!"

Pratt gave Lear a surprised look.

Susan was slowly retreating, trying to escape, but when she heard Lear's words, her body trembled and stopped.

Lear stared at the blood-stained swordsman on the opposite side and said, "I swear, as long as I escape this fate, Catherine, I will rebuild the Flame Mercenary Regiment, even expand to the medium-sized mercenary group, and make up for the old leader's regrets." Susan, don't you want gold carats, and I'll give you a shop in Port Lear at lair, and you'll earn at least fifty thousand gold carats!"

"Really, the old lady is struggling! Anyone who dares to rob me of 50,000 gold carats must die!" Susan pointed at Pratt, full of fighting spirit.

Pratt looked at Lear again, and finally couldn't help but ask, "May I ask which family you are from?, if you are also an ally of the Juggernaut bloodline, or an ally of the cannibals, I will let you go." ”

Lear's heart sank, thinking that it was all death anyway, so he said, "Charlie Lear, the bloodline of the Dolphin and the Earl of Sails, the only heir to Port Lear." ”

Pratt exclaimed: "Impossible, you have obviously been ...... No wonder I look a little familiar with you, I've seen your portrait, and you're not dead. As long as I bring you back, the descendant of that down-and-out 'Fire Sword Saint' will never have the face to pretend in front of the great cannibal again, and the family will definitely reward me." ”

"I'm grass!" Lear couldn't help but curse, it seems that the cannibal family is also involved in the operation against the Lear family.

When it came to life and death, Catherine was calmer than anyone else, she pointed at Pratt and said, "You are twenty-seven or eighteen years old at most, you should only be a junior swordsman, and I am also a junior swordsman! I know it will be difficult to defeat you, but I swear that I will exchange one life for half your life! I also know that cannibals especially like to eat their kind, and if you are seriously injured or even crippled, your people will avenge me!"

Prett's face changed slightly, Catherine was telling the truth, the Hopkins family are all crazy and perverted, they only have interests in their eyes, there is no family affection at all, even people dare to eat, what else is not daring?

"You are cowardly, Mr. Great Cannibal. Lear scoffed.

Pratt was annoyed, bared his teeth, and said, "A little slut who was promoted to junior swordsman three days ago still wants to hurt me, and I will let you know the cruelty of cannibals!" With that, a cyan glow appeared from his sword and rushed towards Catherine.

Lear suddenly remembered a legend, and immediately sneered: "I am a big man when you are a big man, it turns out that you are just a mongrel! The pure blood of the cannibal is the fighting spirit of water, and you are actually the fighting spirit of the wind, you are not a pure cannibal at all, at most you are just a dog of the cannibal!"

"You are not allowed to insult my noble blood!" said Pratt, furious, and turned to attack Lear.

Lear wouldn't fight such a formidable opponent and immediately hid behind Catherine.

The long sword in Catherine's hand glowed reddish, forming a fighting aura of fire and meeting Pret.

The two of them immediately fought together, Catherine had never had experience in fighting with swordsmen, and did not dare to use combo techniques or unfamiliar sword skills indiscriminately, but only repeatedly used basic swordsmanship.

Thanks to having a good father, Catherine's basic skills are extremely solid, and this advantage is even more pronounced after becoming a junior swordsman.

On the other hand, Pratt made a strong attack and was impetuous-although he had rested for a while, the pursuit of the blue-eyed snow fox really consumed a lot of his fighting energy, and he had to fight quickly. The reason why he was able to catch up with the blue-eyed snow fox was that in addition to his own mastery of the wind fighting spirit, it was mainly due to his magic boots, otherwise he would not be able to catch the rare blue-eyed snow fox if he was tired.
