Chapter 553: Gatekeeper

Ethan Lion was gone, angry and confused about the future.

Locke didn't choose to meet him in the end, he just stood motionless on the wall, watching Ethan Lion finally turn around and retreat back the way he came.

Alvin looked at Locke's calm face again and again, and after hesitating again and again, he still asked the doubts in his heart.

"High Lord, why don't you let Attorney General Esenlion in? He might really ......"

When Locke turned his head to look at Alvin, Alvin subconsciously lowered his head, but Locke's deep voice still reached his ears.

"Strictly speaking, it was he and the High Lord Mograini who raised me single-handedly, and without him and the High Lord Mograini taking care of me in the Crusaders, I would definitely not be able to get to where I am today. However, I was afraid that after I let him in, I would not be able to refuse his request. ”

Locke raised his hand and pointed to his head and said to Alvin, "I have a big disagreement with the Attorney General here, and it's irreconcilable. Once I let him in, I'll have a conflict with him sooner or later, and it's better not to see each other than that. ”

Alvin silently looked at Ethanlien and his guards who were drifting away in the distance, and asked in a low voice after half a minute, "Is Grand Commander Dassault Khan really a demon?" ”

Locke knew in his heart that the soldiers of the Second Legion and the Tirisfal Glade, including many of his own soldiers, as well as many high-ranking generals, did not believe that Grand Commander Dassault Khan was a demon.

They were more out of resentment at the screening of the undead led by Ethan Lien, and out of fear of demons, they slightly distanced themselves from the Crusaders and Dassault Khan.

In fact, they still think that the Crusaders outside the wall are still their brothers. In the absence of any real proof of Dassault Khan's identity, this is undoubtedly a dangerous idea.

This needs to be dealt with as quickly as possible, no matter what method is used. It only took the time when his demonic true body was revealed, and the haze that hovered over all the Crusaders would subside.

"Yes." Locke patted Alvin on the shoulder and said solemnly to him, "I vouch for my personality, he is a demon. I did not launch this mutiny-like operation because of any ambition I had. I just don't want our hope of Lordaeron's revival to be cut off. ”

"We at Lordaeron can't accept any defeat, and we have no room to retreat."

Locke's heavy words surprised Alvin, who was surprised that the High Lord had made a promise to him. But again, as a high-ranking officer in the Ministry of Security, Alvin knew that he should not ask these words.

Just as he was about to show his loyalty to Locke, Locke stopped him.

"I understand your thoughts, and in fact if I were you, I would have such doubts." Locke smiled faintly, "Don't think too much, prepare your special forces, when everything is really irreparable, you will have to take them to solve this problem." ”

Alvin gave Locke a solemn salute and strode away. It's just that his departure just makes room for someone else.

Calamir appeared behind Locke, silently waiting for Locke's orders.

"I originally wanted Amirda to stay here and hold on to this fortress, and you followed me to the monastery. But I suddenly felt that he was not suitable for this place, and he had complicated relationships with many of the people on the other side. Locke turned to look at Calamir, and he said apologetically, "This is our lifeblood, and we can't be sloppy." We don't have a suitable commander for the defense of the fort, and I don't think there's anyone better than you. ”

"So, it's up to you to hold on to this fortress."

Locke's decision surprised Karamir, and in the end he could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, and said reluctantly, "If the Great Lord needs you, of course Karamir will stay here until you need me again." ”

Locke stepped forward to straighten out his crooked robes, and he said with a smile, "I'll transfer them to the Silver Pines Forest from the Second Legion, and I'll keep them with the Third Wing if you need them." In the meantime, I'll put a new reorganized corps here at your disposal. ”

"So, I've become the commander of this fortress?" Instead of being happy about the promotion of his rank and position, Karamir instead frowned and asked, "I need to understand, what defense level do you want for this fortress lord?" Who are our enemies? Crusaders? ”

Locke pondered, and he turned to look at the fog in the distance. The sudden change in his status made him really unaccustomed to the crusaders as an enemy, no, it was not a question of whether he was used to it or not.

He can't do anything offensive or war against the Crusaders! At least for this time, after all, they still wore the armor and robes of the Crusaders!

Perhaps, what needs to be done now is to distinguish between them first.

"If there are scattered crusaders who want to join us through this gate, let them in." After a long silence, Locke seriously instructed Karamir, "I will arrange some people to receive them here, and they will be reorganized and observed by the monastery to a certain extent." ”

"If there's a massive army trying to pass through here, tell them it's not allowed. If they attack you, they are your enemies. I approve that you can use any method to get rid of them! In addition, there was no limit to the number of times civilians and caravans could enter and exit, but messengers and postmen had to be carefully screened. ”

After much hesitation, Locke added, "If possible, drive the attacking Crusaders and try not to hurt them." ”

"After all, they are also our brothers, we just have different ideas, but we are not enemies of life and death."

"I'm sorry, my words are a little scattered," Locke sighed, looking up at a stern-looking Calamir, "actually, I'm a little confused too. I wasn't ready to break with them. But they have made us enemies......"

"I have nothing to fear, High Lord!" After saying this, the seriousness on Calamir's face disappeared, and he said with a smile, "I have proven myself in the battle of the Second Army against the gallons. ”

"I trust you," Locke turned and patted Karamir on the shoulder with a smile, "I'm going to cut off their logistics from today." They will have a hard time in the future. ”

"Guard this gate, the future..."

Locke smiled and patted Karamir on the shoulder again, and this sentence made Karamir's eyes light up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl.

※※※

Sally Whitemane, the most favored cleric of the Light, the Grand Inquisitor of the Crusaders, the head of the Abbey of Tirisfard, and the direct leader of all the priests of Tirisfard.

The woman, who held many great titles, was now busy like a girl in the bedroom of the monastery.

The closet door next to the door was opened at random, and there was nothing inside. On the silk goose down quilt bed directly opposite the wardrobe, long dresses with various patterns were thrown on the bed at will, one in the east and one in the west.

And the author of all this was sitting next to the bedside table, she opened the drawer on the bedside table, and took out bottles of colorful perfumes from inside, and hurriedly searched for it, opening it from time to time to smell whether it met her requirements.

"Well, the scent of roses. Not good, not good, Locke doesn't like this, he's allergic to this. ”

"Well, this! The smell of the forest? Not good, no, I'm not a druid. ”

Sally flipped through her collection with gusto, not wearing her formidable red prosecutor's uniform. Instead, she wore only a light blue off-the-shoulder bandeau evening gown, constantly churning her things around without anyone existing.

However, what she didn't know was that it wasn't an exaggeration to make Locke crazy now.

Her long, flowing straight hair was draped over her bare shoulders, and her double-eyelid eyes shone with a wave that made men go crazy. The melon seed painted a layer of light makeup on her face, the eyeshadow just right, the watery red lips are sexy and charming, the bandeau evening dress exposes most of her pair of crisp breasts, and the light blue dress makes her originally white skin appear more white and delicate, especially the contraction of the waist of the evening dress, which tightly shrinks and modifies her waist, which looks perfect!

Under the backdrop of this dress, although she has a little fat around the waist, she is still as perfect as the goddess Venus.

Although the fireplace in the room was constantly burning, it did not dispel the cold air that was constantly seeping in from outside.

You must know that in this cold winter season, there is a thick layer of ice under the eaves outside. They won't be thawed until March next year!

"Or? This one? Sally hesitated to pick up the yellow perfume bottle on the table, and she shook it slightly, and the liquid in the bottle began to shake slowly.

When the bottle was opened, a citrus-flavored aroma quickly wafted through the room.

"Well, make do, right?" Sally hesitated and looked at the bottle in her hand, "This is still purchased on Valentine's Day this year, I don't know if Locke likes the smell of this perfume." ”

Speaking of Locke, a sweet smile appeared on Sally's face.

He's coming back!

This time, he should stay in the monastery and not leave, right?

Thinking back to that day on the edge of the cliff behind the convent, Sally couldn't help but bite her red lips, and her face subconsciously turned red.

"That's really...... Unforgettable..."
