The change in Henry's expression was not an exaggeration, but Carujie still captured the subtle changes in her pupils. The old knight may have been full of honor when he was young, but now, he has become much more sophisticated.

"Maybe I did, but I don't remember much. Ha, I see so many different kinds of people every day, and there are many noble ladies with necklaces. Obviously, this one didn't impress me too much. Henry snorted slearly.

Originally, in his eyes, John and Sophia, the two children, would at most ask Mittal about his "heroic deeds", and then prepare to join the gang together. You know, joining a mercenary organization, picking up a sword and riding a horse yourself is a fatal temptation for adventurous teenagers. But he never expected that the two little ones would pull out the necklaces.

At the same time, Henry kept turning his gaze to Carujie, as if to question if she had told Mittal the details. Kalujie only shook her head slightly: "Mr. Henry, don't look at me. I'm a woman, and I don't know much about Mittal. ”

"You've been part of the Mittal Mercenary Regiment, haven't you?"

Sophia's tone made Henry slightly unhappy, and it didn't sound like she was worshipping some battle-hardened knight, but interrogating a prisoner who had committed the most heinous crimes. But the good cultivation still made him nod.

"Little girl, I did work for many mercenary organizations and noble lords, Mittal...... I did do that for a while. But not too long. ”

"If it's not too long, you shouldn't be in a position to understand the value of this necklace."

"I didn't say I understood the meaning of this necklace, maybe she was just a woman who lost it while 'doing business'......"

"I can understand your desire to conceal some unworthy secret, sir." John patted Sophia on the shoulder, then changed a smile, "We just want to find the owner of this necklace...... Or some other relative of his. Although we asked a lot of people to learn that this necklace may be related to the Mittal mercenary group, now that half of the mercenary market on the Hungarian border is called Mittal, I think it should not be a big mistake to consult an experienced knight. ”

……

"I'm more interested in how you got this necklace."

After a long silence, Henry finally spoke: "Children, I have to say that this necklace may be older than you, and the story behind it may be more complicated. You're right to say that, in my capacity, I'm not qualified to touch such a heavy secret. Even though I have shed countless blood for Mittal ...... What's more, I have left the Mittal Mercenary Group, and I can't guarantee what has changed between them in recent years. ”

"You should at least know what kind of person qualifies to wear this necklace."

"Hoo ......"

Henry took down a large glass of wine, and waved his hand to the tavern maid: "Another big glass...... A large glass of aged Mel Gibson. ”

This vintage whisky from Scotland should be a must-have drink before revealing your secrets.

"Speak, please."

"This necklace is not a status symbol in Mittal...... When Mittal hadn't collapsed to the point where he was in front of him a few decades ago, as long as he had this necklace, he could mobilize a mercenary brigade of more than 300 people. You should know what kind of strength three hundred well-trained mercenaries are. Moreover, there is no upper limit. In other words, with the permission of other necklace owners, Mittal may even be out of the nest because of this necklace. Henry smiled sarcastically, "Does that sound child's play?" But in fact, the Mittal mercenary group has acquiesced to this rule for a long time. Because there are only three necklaces in total. ”

"There are only three?" John scrutinized the worthless pendant in his hand.

"It is said that it is, because no one has ever seen the appearance of a fourth necklace. It's just that something happened later...... Henry smiled wryly, "and then ...... Kindness...... At that time, there must have been some internal problems in Mittal. At that time, the three necklaces belonged to Mittal's supreme commander, Ikaz Mittal, her sister Lannessa Mittal, and a declining nobleman who claimed to be from Milan. ”

"The power to dispatch the army is in the hands of a woman?"

"None of us can overcome the woman you speak of, my little one. Lanetha Mittal, when she puts on her viscous and rides her warhorse, his brother retreats. Henry seemed to have witnessed that period of glory, so there was a glint in his eyes, "There are not so many rules in the mercenary team, everyone submits to the strong, it's as simple as that." Lanetha is supposed to be Mittal's most famous warrior for hundreds of years, and you shouldn't treat her like an ordinary farmer. ”

"And what about later?" Sophia asked.

"Later...... Ha...... Later......"

Henry swallowed a sip of his drink, but Mel Gibson was clearly not as easy to deal with as a regular beer. The old knight's face flushed at once.

"There was a time when Mittal was at its peak and many brave guys joined us...... It wasn't until General Lannessa Mittal led her entourage to the Upper Rhine to complete a mercenary that they were besieged. The valiant General Lanetha led Mittal out of the siege, but was lost on the way back. Henry's tone became a little quicker, "Along with General Lannessa, there are some of the most elite warriors in Mittal. Later, the Milanese nobleman rebelled and tried to wrest control of the entire mercenary team from Ikez. At that time, Mittal was extremely divided into two factions, and after years of self-depletion, the whole of Mittal eventually fell apart. The Duke of Milan was seriously injured and had gone to hell, but some of the ambitious little commanders within Mittal had gone out on their own. Without the constraints of treaties and necklaces, some of them apparently quickly forgot about Mittal's dogma, and although they all called themselves Mittal, they were extremely free and loose. It also proves how I made the right decision to leave Mittal in the first place. ”

"I'm glad you're willing to say so much to two little ones who don't seem to know anything about the world."

"Even if you are well disguised, your conversation and manners are not like that of a child. I've seen Ms. Carlujie's methods, so ......"

With the stimulation of alcohol, Henry started to fight again, but John and Sophia both knew that there would only be a bigger conspiracy behind this.
