Chapter 50: Decision

"Grand Knight? What do you mean? ”

She looked at the guard's expression, and she could hear some of it in his words.

"Because... Lord Pei Lie will soon return to the City Lord's Mansion for your sake. ”

"Pei Lie?" Hearing the name, Freya frowned slightly.

It was the second time she had heard the name, the first time in the mouth of the Sea Clan.

Judging by their expressions, it seems that this person named Pei Lie is still a very important figure in Dazier City, and he also has something entangled with the Sea Clan.

According to the mouth of this guard, it seems that Pei Lie's strength has reached the level of a great knight. And the big knight, not long ago, with the blessing of that earring, she personally experienced that kind of Cheng dΓΉ's power, even with the current knight's peak strength, I am afraid that it will be instantaneous.

Weighing the pros and cons a little, it is not difficult to see from her brief contact with Moffett that this city lord is not an unreasonable person, so she is safe for the time being, and there is no need to take any risks.

"And," she touched her ear, the cold touch of the earrings running across her fingertips.

"If you really need to do something, with my current strength, even if I can stop it, I must have the consciousness of being injured or killed!"

After thinking about it, she turned and went back to her room, deciding to wait for the opportunity to act.

The two guards standing by the door were relieved to see Freya go back without saying a word.

You know, it was just a brief conversation just now, and the pressure given to them by the girl in front of them was no less than a fierce battle.

And the killing intent and momentum that were inadvertently revealed made both of them see that the strength of the girl in front of them was absolutely terrifying.

'If it weren't for Lord Pei Lie, maybe we would have fallen!' ’

The two guards glanced at each other, and both could see the fear in their eyes.

While Freya waited quietly in the room.

In an office-like room.

Moffett sat in a high-backed chair, frowning at the bulletin in his hand, the fingers of his right hand tapping on the table in front of him from time to time.

'Click'

The door opened, and a cold-eyed man in black leather armor walked in, holding a black tube in his hand, and handed it to Moffett.

"My lord, this is the latest movement of the Sea Clan hawks, please take a look!"

Moffett took the tube, pulled the seal from it, and with a slight knock, a curly white piece of paper fell out.

Carefully pick it up and open it.

As he read it carefully, there was a look of surprise in his eyes.

"The Sea Clan actually evacuated the island of Kent, which has been occupied? What's going on? Could it be that they have relinquished jurisdiction over the straits surrounding Dazier City? ”

The information may have been too shocking, so that he unconsciously said what was in his heart.

After a long time, he read the information in his hand several times, and then raised his head and questioned the black-armored man.

"Is this news accurate?"

"This is news brought by the fish hunting team under Lord Pei Lie! Ninety percent authenticity! The man replied earnestly.

Moffett held the paper in his hand with some solemnity, remembered the aggressive girl before, and said slowly, "It seems that Auf's death has a great impact on the strength of the Sea Clan hawks!." ”

After a moment's pause, he asked. "By the way, Pei Lie is almost here now!"

"My lord guesses it's going to be soon..."

The man was barely halfway through his sentence when the sound of heavy metal grinding against him came with a 'click, click'.

A strong man in all-black armor with a strong smell of blood on his body walked straight in.

The man's whole body, including his head, was shrouded in armor, his indifferent eyes were projected through the slits in the helmet's face as if they were substance, and he had no weapons on his body, but his gestures carried explosive power, as if he could enter the battle at any moment.

The whole person was standing there, and his momentum made the face of the person wearing black leather armor on the side a little pale.

The eyes hidden in the helmet swept over the two men in the room.

He took off his black helmet to reveal a handsome face that was somewhat similar to Moffett, but he looked at Moffett with a smile on his face.

"Are you talking about me?"

The person next to "Master Pei Lie" hurriedly saluted with a pale face.

And when Moffett saw the man, he was only slightly stunned, and then put down the secret report in his hand and smiled.

"You're here? How's it going, have you found out? The crowd..."

"Well, I found it." Pei Lie nodded strangely in his eyes, and then he glanced at the person standing aside.

Under Pei Lie's gaze, the man consciously saluted and walked out of the room directly and closed the door.

At this point, there were only two people left in the room.

Perhaps in front of others, Pei Lie is a strong, ruthless and powerful knight.

But at this time, in the face of Moffett, he put his helmet on the table with a relaxed expression, and then found a chair to sit down, this attitude, it is obvious that the relationship between the two is extremely close.

"I found out, they seem to have fled from the war-torn Byron country, and it seems that their strength was not ordinary people, in addition to that girl, there are two other knight-level masters, one of them still has the peak strength, in Dazier City, according to the people of Chabrol, it seems that it is only a temporary foothold, and the destination is the port of the dragon."

Listening to Pei Lie's message, Moffett frowned slightly.

"The Kingdom of Byron? So, did they really strayed into this incident? ”

"Well, it seems like that's the case, what are you going to do?" Pei Lie wondered about the next decision of the man in front of him.

Knowing that this was a misunderstanding, Moffett's expression became obviously a little relaxed.

"Since it was a mistake, then I had to apologize and let it go."

"Huh? Let go? Pei Lie frowned slightly, and then he said with a very strange expression. How can it be! I'm very interested in that girl who can kill the peak of the knight level with a single sword! ”

It seemed that Pei Lie's words stimulated him, and Moffett's originally relaxed expression immediately became a little nervous again.

"What did you say!?"

Pei Lie, who was sitting on the chair, seemed to see something funny, and said in a somewhat mocking tone.

"Hehe, don't pretend, although that girl's background is a little complicated, but with your strength, it's not unacceptable? And judging by their situation, it seems that they are also defecting, so it is better to..."

"......" looked at Pei Lie in front of him a little speechlessly, it was hard for Moffett to imagine that this man with the strength of a great knight in front of him would be so gossipy.

Directly ignoring Moffett's gaze, Pei Lie continued.

"We've lived together since we were kids, and I don't know your mind after all these years? Don't you like that tough girl? ”

"Uhhh Okay, I admit that I have a good impression of her, but our current situation is not suitable for talking about this, although the Sea Clan side is temporarily timid, they are not saying that they have given up directly, they will definitely come again, if something happens at that time, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life. ”

Perhaps it was Moffett's words that touched some of his thoughts, and he looked out of the window behind Moffett in a trance, and said with some emotion.

"yes... Dazier City is a seemingly peaceful city..."

This feeling was fleeting, and he settled down and said to Moffett with some seriousness.

"Are you really going to give up on her? After all, after so many years... This isn't the decisive Moffett I know. ”

"......" Listening to Pei Lie's serious tone, Moffett frowned slightly.

For a long time, he seemed to have made a final decision in his heart. "Well, I'll give up now, but if possible, after the Sea Clan's affairs are completely settled, I'll go to the Dragon Harbor alone to find her, if I'm still alive at that time..."

Moffett's answer caused Pei Lie to stand up from his chair and look at him with surprise.

"Go to Dragon Harbor...... What about the city of Dazier? ”

Looking at Pei Lie's eyes, Moffett smiled and patted him on the shoulder, although there was a smile on his face, his tone was thick and tired.

"You know, since my father died, I've been the city lord for fifteen years, and my heart is already tired, so, my brother, after I leave, I'll trouble you..."

Moffett's tired look made Pei Lie's surprised eyes slowly soften, he knew that Moffett had done to Dazier City over the years, and the one he had undertaken, if he had been allowed to do it, he might have been exhausted by now.

But with his mind, he can only use his own force to help him secretly, and try to share some of the pressure as much as possible.

And for such a decision, after thinking about it carefully, he slowly understood something.

"I may not admit it then." The deep voice was followed by some reluctant compromise.

Despite this, Moffett gave a grateful look in his eyes.

Pei Lie, who was uncomfortable with him, waved his hand. "Okay, let's not talk about it, since you've decided, then I'll go back directly, there are still many things to deal with over there."

Moffett, who knew what Pei Lie said, nodded in understanding.

"Well, go ahead!"

Without staying too long, Pei Lie picked up the helmet on the table and turned around to leave.

Watching the strong back of the pitch-black armor walk out of the room, Moffett exhaled deeply and showed a sincere smile that he had not seen in a long time.
