After leaving the study, Freya didn't stop and took the two guards to the place where the maid was resting, and told Eli about the secrecy of the matter.

Under the slight threat, Avery was so frightened that he only dared to nod his head and assure that he knew very well about the baron's servants under the horror of the castle, and even a simple theft would be executed, not to mention such a major matter of military secrets.

It wasn't until the taken Ellie disappeared from sight that Freya returned to her bedroom.

took off the tattered skirt used for camouflage, washed up and changed into casual clothes, and Freya sat at the desk in a refreshing body.

Although the cross sword in her hand has not yet reached the scrapped Cheng Dù, she still went to the arsenal to replace it with a new one, which has high requirements for weapons.

Touching his chest, the trace of heat did not subside after the battle, but had a tendency to faintly break through, and a faint qi sense penetrated his chest through his limbs and even all over his body.

Vaguely, Freya felt that her body was undergoing a wonderful change, as if the heat was slowly stimulating all the elements of her body, among which agility was particularly prominent, just a simple movement could now bring the sound of the wind, which was a natural reaction that she had not yet adapted to her own changes.

"This battle actually forced out your potential?" Feeling the change in herself, Freya was happy in her eyes.

But if you think about it carefully, this is also an inevitable result, she was originally close to the door, even if she didn't think of this battle, she would break through in the next few days, this time it was just to accelerate the catalyst.

Once you break through the knight level, your body will increase dramatically, so that you will reach a new level of transcendence from the ordinary.

If the current Freya faces that group of soldiers, she can kill all of them lightly just by suppressing her body, this is the difference between knight-level and ordinary warriors, the simple number has no effect on the strong people of this level, and only people with equal strength can fight with them.

Gently waving her new cross sword, the silver sword light flashed in her hand, and the chair not far away suddenly lost a corner, and flashed again, and a small insect flying by the window immediately fell, and it was she who cut off one of her wings.

Seeing that she had struck at random, Freya nodded with satisfaction.

It was now dark, and the dark castle was lit with torches on the main road.

Just as Freya was immersed in her breakthrough, a large group of guards on horses sped out of the castle gate, apparently because of something important.

And in one of the windows below Freya's bedroom, a large black bird suddenly flew out of it, extremely fast.

Vaguely, she saw a rolled parchment and a round object wrapped in cloth tied to the bird's leg.

"Looks like the news has been sent." Freya narrowed her eyes slightly, and didn't retract her gaze until the bird merged with the night. "Next, it's up to my father to decide..."

After all, if there is a war, the Green Territory will undoubtedly become a battlefield between the two armies, and this is undoubtedly the biggest blow to the Green family, which has been in business for many years.

Now, if Freya is allowed to sit in the position of a baron, then it would be the best outcome for anyone to send troops first while the other party is still hiding.

Because of the blockage of the forest, Saladin will definitely not send many people, even with the support of Berta, it is impossible to make a big wave, they are at most an advance force, used to take the lead in the cannon fodder.

But for this kind of decision, it is not for the baron to say, the next thing to look at is the people sent by the empire.

The disappearance of Freya for a day and Eli's house arrest did not make a difference in the castle, except for Mary and her brother Eric to ask once, and Freya used a make-up excuse to pass it.

After returning to the castle, Freya spent more than ten days summarizing and refining her swordsmanship, adapting to her current body and stimulating her sense of qi.

In order to try to adapt to their own knight-level strength.

On the night of the iron ore area, the soldiers led by Howard officially launched a surprise attack on Berta, but only received symbolic resistance, and Berta and his family members seemed to be cowering in the territory and did not dare to go out again, quietly not knowing what was brewing.

Fifteen days later......

Dressed in a goose-yellow dress, Freya sat quietly on a high platform in the castle, holding a thick book in her hand and looking at it carefully.

This is a popular novel that seems to be this world, written by an unsigned bard, the content is very mixed but feels very real, most of it is written about the things and things that the author has seen in various places, the most attractive of which is the story about the legend of the wizard, which makes Freya find it interesting.

She knew that there were many intelligent races in this world besides humans, but she knew nothing about supernatural powers, and those aliens were just creatures like humans.

No one had actually seen wizards, at least not anywhere she knew, and some were just rumors.

The backwardness of civilization also has great limitations on the source and transmission of information, she can only look for clues through some books, it is said that in the countries north of the country there is often a kind of human called mysterious, most of them have inhuman powers, but the description of that group of special people is very vague, just literally so that she can't judge.

And this world is many, much bigger than the earth, the living space and origin of human beings is only a small part of it, in some unknown places or mountains or seas, there will always be some strange things, and some are legends in human books, and some are common in ordinary times.

As for wizards, Freya still came to see them with curiosity and interest.

Gently closing the book, Freya stood up from the high platform, and the wind in the distance was blowing her hair, and it was very comfortable.

In the distance, you can still hear the 'rumbling' sound

Squinting her eyes slightly, her eyesight seemed to have strengthened when she officially entered the knight level, and in her line of sight, a row of thick smoke and dust blew up from the road leading to the castle in the distance, and vaguely rows of troops on war horses were spreading over, mighty.

Looking at the length of the line, the number of people is no less than two thousand.

The leader was a black-haired man without a helmet, about thirty years old, not very handsome but very heroic, his hair was blown up by the wind, and his well-proportioned figure looked heroic under the golden armor, and he seemed to be the leader of this team.

At the entrance to the castle, the baron, Howard, who had returned, and others lined up to greet the troops from the empire with solemn courtesy.

At the front of the army carried two large flags with an axe and a cross sword painted on them, and underneath the two weapons was a blood-colored thorn flower, which Freya knew was the symbol of the Byronic Empire.

"The Emperor * team is finally here!"

Freya narrowed her eyes slightly, the arrival of the army meant the beginning of something, and it was a good thing to know if it was good or bad.

The people in the territory must have also seen the arrival of the army, and the blockade of military secrets will definitely be released on the same day, as for how they think and how to make decisions, it is no longer up to the baron to influence.

Soon the army arrived at the entrance of the castle, and the black-haired man at the head skillfully turned over and dismounted, and walked directly forward and smiled and gave a bear hug to the baron and Howard, who seemed to be familiar people.

After a few words of conversation at the gate of the castle, the baron pointed to her standing on a high platform in the castle.

The black-haired man smiled and looked in the direction the baron pointed, and was stunned when he saw Freya standing on the high platform with a book in one hand, and then he smiled and opened his mouth and waved his hand, which was considered to be a greeting.

It was too far away, and her voice was indistinct, as if it meant something like 'hello', but Freya nodded with the same smile.

"It seems to be an old acquaintance of my father." Guessing in her heart, she jumped off the high platform and walked towards the barons.

The army of 2,000 people is not going to the castle together, they will have a selected camping site, which may not be too far from the location of the castle, after all, once the war starts, Grimm Castle will directly become the base and logistics point of the emperor's team.

Soon Freya arrived at the gate of the castle and stood with the baron, the army in front of them had already left, leaving only the black-haired man and two seemingly tough soldiers.

"This is Count Philip," the baron smiled, taking her hand and introducing the man's identity, "this is my third daughter, Freya. ”

'Earl? Freya glanced at the black-haired man, who was obviously less than forty years old, but she didn't expect it to be an earl...

"I've seen Lord Count Philip," she didn't think much of it, she lifted her long skirt and bent her knees slightly.

"What count is not count, you are too polite teacher." Philip directly hugged Freya, who was saluting, and said with a smile, "If you hadn't saved me in the first place, I might have been buried in the wilderness by now, if you and Brother Bailey followed me back to the imperial capital at that time, how could it be confined to such a small place in the countryside." ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect that so many years have passed, and you still remember this incident." The baron smiled, "Back then, I was used to seeing the intrigue in the army, so I didn't want to go to the imperial capital with you, and this is the root of my Green family, how can I leave here." ”

"I think the same thing as Andre, and I don't want to live a life of scheming all the time." Howard said.

"Alas," Philip sighed.
