On the periphery of these teams, Spia, who has a bit of a maverick feel. Leaning on his shoulders on a carriage that was also covered in iron, Rodtrim looked at the teams around him and said to himself, "It seems that we are not the only ones who are prepared. ”

"It also depends on who is the most prepared, I believe that if those thieves do come to attack, there will not be many people who can work together to fight the enemy."

One of the mercenaries standing beside him shook his head and said...... This mercenary is not tall, he looks extremely capable, and like Rodtrim, his beard has also been trimmed, but the same beard on Rodtrim's face is very consistent with his playboy temperament, and on this small mercenary, it looks a little obscene.

"Then it depends on the strength of each person."

Spia. Rodtrim shrugged his shoulders disapprehantly, "By the way, I asked you to check the bottom of that little magician, how are you doing with this?" ”

"Boss, the little magician is also a magician, how can it be so easy to check?"

The little man looked like he was rushing to the sky, "She is not only a magician, but also a nobleman, and she has a team of guards under her command that is definitely stronger than ours, and I don't know why she wants us to protect ......"

After listening to the little man's report, Spia. Rodtrim frowned slightly, but then began to stretch again, and he didn't know whether to be relieved or self-deprecating: "That's great, it seems that people do use us as guides, and there are so many mercenary groups here, even if those thieves dare to do it." I'm afraid we'll lose a lot of money, not to mention that we have a genuine magician in our team. ”

"Boss, that's an official magician, she can't be a fake, right?" The little man was a little uneasy.

"Humph! I don't know. ”

Spia. Rodtrim glanced at him contemptuously: "There are those who pretend to be samurai, and those who dare to pretend to be magicians?" I'm just wondering which family this guy is from, and what is going on in the Cordillera Plateau? ”

In his mind, Hathaway had already defined Hathaway as a second generation of nobles, riding in the family carriage and taking the family's escort to a desolate place like the Cordillera Plateau to begin her adventure.

"Childish!" This is the evaluation of the mercenary leader after thinking about it for a long time.

Hathaway's convoy was ready to go at dawn. When the convoy departs. It was already past seven o'clock in the morning, and Hathaway was a little strange...... This morning, whether it is the lobby of the hotel or the streets and alleys, it is particularly cold. There aren't many pedestrians. Especially those who come from out of town. It seems to have disappeared out of thin air.

"My lord, I inquired, and most of them are gathered at the gate of the city. Get ready to enter the Cordillera Plateau in groups. "Petro. Hughes reported outside the car window.

"Well, Petro, if you encounter thieves on the road, you can take refuge in Cecia's carriage. In addition, Mr. Berger should also take care of him so as not to put him in danger. Hathaway commanded.

The car dealership that cooperated with the Grand Wizard of Field had already started production and was beginning to make a profit, and Hathaway had also ordered a carriage for her maids, although the defense was not as complete as her own, but it was no problem for the protection of some long-range weapons. As for Bolger...... When this guy came to Hathaway's side, he was quite low-key and restrained for a while. However, Hathaway clearly underestimated the man. Although Berg's combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning, his destructive power is indeed good. I don't know how this guy found out about Cecia. Hughes was dealing with the information, and he was guilty of being too contemptuous, and even turned around to Cecia. Hughes inquired for news.

Although Cecia. Hughes had some dishes, but he had already mastered all the common sense that he should have mastered, and when Berger first tried it, he was surprised that the other party seemed to have mastered something. So she steadied Berg and reported back to Hathaway.

Hathaway was very harsh in her criticism of Cecia. Hughes, and then carried out the remedy while putting Berg under strict surveillance...... Originally, Hathaway wanted to use it as a counter-enemy, but she didn't know how much this person knew, and it was a bit too risky, after thinking about it again, Hathaway decided to remove this hidden danger before arriving in Mandy Gaza, if there were really thieves attacking, it would undoubtedly be a good opportunity.

The convoy had not been around the city gate in a short time, and Hathaway looked out of the car window, and suddenly saw that the playboy leader in fancy dress was about to be greeted by people, when he suddenly heard the rumbling sound of horses' hooves from the street in the distance. She turned her head in surprise to see a group of cavalry dressed in Imperial Army armor galloping towards her.

The sudden arrival of the team made both the mercenaries and the merchants nervous, and the merchants could barely keep their composure, but the eyes of those mercenaries were a little wandering...... Although the empire allowed the existence of private armed forces, there were strict regulations on the size and use of weapons, and mercenaries often violated the prohibition by force, and none of these mercenary groups dared to guarantee that they were clean. And most importantly, the government says you are clean, and if you are not clean, you are clean; If the government says you're not clean, you're not clean. The team of heavily armed knights in front of him was definitely not here to invite guests and friends, and some of the weak-hearted people had begun to retreat behind the crowd, ready to gradually fade out of the field of vision of those knights.

At this time, the group of knights had come near, and the leading officer gave an order, and the knights rushed to the city gate and blocked the city gate, and the officer drove his horse to a halt in front of the people, and said loudly: "I know what you are going to do, but for the sake of the safety of the burial, I am ordered by the commander Marquis of Highgrass to seal the city gate and prohibit the passage of any team. ”

"In addition, all armed personnel entering the fortress must go to the fortress headquarters to register and be restricted from residence, otherwise they must leave the fortress within one day......"

For a moment, the originally noisy and noisy clearing became silent, no one spoke, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the knight. Most of the mercenaries gathered here are some experienced and experienced mercenaries, who are not only superior to those knights in numbers, but even most of them are stronger than these mercenaries. However, mercenaries are mercenaries, and unless they want to rebel, they will never dare to attack the regular army...... In fact, they didn't even dare to attack the nobles' private armies, unless they didn't care about being accused of 'treason'.

The charge of rebellion is not easy to bear, and no matter how powerful the mercenary group is, it cannot compete with the army of the entire Otiga Empire.

Just when the mercenaries were a little confused, Hathaway got out of the carriage...... She heard the officer's words very clearly, but she was also puzzled, wondering how the Marquis of Highgrass could give such a strange order. Normally, when she came to a city, she should have visited the city's famous people, nobles, and administrators, but on the one hand, she did not like this kind of aristocratic communication, and on the other hand, it was because the marquis was a confidant of the Grand Duke of Cassef. Hathaway knew that the Grand Duke was also coveting the Cordillera Plateau and secretly stumbling on her, so she was not in the mood to be in a weak mood.

Seeing that the officer had finished speaking, Hathaway asked the officer to be called to him...... The officer was a little depressed, and he couldn't be as blunt as he was with those mercenaries. Those mercenaries and merchants may not know Hathaway's identity, but he and his superiors know very well, but the other party did not come to visit, and they pretended not to know. In fact, some of their arrangements were actually made against her, but some things could not be said directly.

"Knight,"

Hathaway had a faint smile on her face, although these people in front of her were collectively called knights, but the only one in front of her who really had the title of knight was in front of her: "I am ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to go to the Cordillera Plateau immediately. Your Excellency's reasons for sealing the gates are not very strong, and I hope that you will convey my opinion to the Marquis. ”

"Lord Earl, Lord Marquis is also for their safety." The officer argued.

"I'm sure everybody understands that, but I believe they need freedom just as well. If you continue to seal the gates of the city on such unfounded grounds, I am sure that a letter of complaint about the Marquis will soon appear on the desk of His Royal Highness the Duke. Of course, you can warn everyone, and I'm sure they will make a rational choice. Hathaway tried to be as tactful as she could, but her tone was unmistakable.

The officer was slightly stunned, and for a moment did not know how to answer. After thinking about it, the Marquis's wishes were not so resolute in the first place, and they did this more as a gesture, in order to shirk their responsibilities in the future.

"I will still carry out the order and seal the city gates. However, if you decide to leave Gettysburg, don't be under any illusion that the gates will be open for you. The officer said in a deep voice...... However, this last sentence is addressed to the mercenaries and caravans.

Hathaway also looked at the merchants, and said loudly: "I think you have heard clearly, the Gettysburg fortress is going to be blocked by the military, which means that after we leave the city gate, we will no longer be protected by the military, I hope you can think carefully and make the right trade-off between money and life." ”

With that, she looked at Spia, who had come not far in front of her. Rodtrim: "Mr. Rodtrim, you have also understood the situation, and now you have decided to accept my employment?" ”

"Of course. We're a mercenary group that keeps our word, and we're ready to go. "Spia. Rodtrim said with a slight bow.

"Open the door!" The officer gave the order to the gate guards, and the gate slowly opened...... (To be continued......)
