"I thought you had sent them back."

"I did send them back."

"Delivered to your doorstep?"

"Sent out of the block."

"What's the use of that? And you didn't notice them following along the way? ”

"Come on, didn't you notice it too?"

Dinen bared his teeth at him.

The intimidated Albert paused, and turned to face the three dazed-looking teenagers.

"You promised me you'd be home, Tyran." He said gently, completely unaware that he was still having an unnutritious argument with his partner a few seconds ago, "So why are you back now?" ”

Tyran Fording, the brown-haired and blue-eyed lad folded his hands together, a resolute look on his face uneasy.

"I apologize to you for that, Mr. Albert." "But I thought I should come back and say thank you to your partner, I want him to know how much I appreciate what he did for my father in court." ”

Dineen snorted, "I don't need ......"

"And we're worried about you, too." Renault quickly added, "Originally, we had planned to pick you up if Mr. Albert was really left behind." ”

Dinein: "......"

- Why is there always someone with the surname Mograini who robs people with him!

Albert quietly moved a step, blocking the teenagers' view of Dinein, and at the same time reached behind his back and grabbed his partner's wrist to stop him from hurting someone. Although Dinen should not be able to worry about children, it is always possible to go wrong just in case.

"Then you see, I'm not lost." He said, "Thank you for your concern, Renault, are you willing to go home now?" ”

"Well, Mr. Albert...... "It was Darion who spoke this time, and the little golden retriever came out from behind his brother, boldly grabbed the paladin's sleeve, and looked up at him, "Actually, we heard what you just said, Uncle Tirio is in danger, isn't he?" ”

Darien and Albert got close very quickly. Maybe it's because of the nature of the little animal to seek advantage and avoid harm, or because he senses that the young paladin won't scold or blame him, and won't force him to play a prank like his older brother. He liked the elder who was not much different in age - but even so, he didn't hesitate to ask for help.

Regardless of kinship, he lends a helping hand to those in need as if he were a blood brother, and he will try his best to avoid bothering others when he is in trouble. That's how paladins and priests think.

Albert hesitated, unsure how much they had heard, but replied frankly, "Yes...... But we're figuring it out. ”

He didn't feel the murderous gaze coming from behind him, so he glanced back with some surprise. Dineh didn't mean to object, just leaned against the wall with a cold face and thought.

Darien turned to look at Tyran.

"Thank you for your willingness to do this, Mr. Albert." Tyran bowed deeply to the two of them, "Now I finally understand what my father wants to do. ”

"And what are you going to do?" Dineen spoke up, this was the first time he had spoken directly to the three teenagers, "Stop him?" ”

Tyran shook his head.

"If my father were to risk his life to save an orc's life, I believe this is something that must be done. I can't stop him. ”

"But at the very least, I want to find him, talk to him, and find out why he did it. And, perhaps, my father will need my help. ”

"Wait, Tyran, if you go too, what about Aunt Calandra?"

Tyran's face showed a hint of struggle.

"So that's what I want to ask you both to do - bring the news back." He turned and said slowly to the Mograine brothers, "I know it's irresponsible to her, but I hope that Mother will finally understand the need for me to do so and forgive me." ”

"But I think she's going to go crazy......" Renault muttered. Albert and Dineen exchanged a look.

"His father's son." Dinen nodded.

"I told you he's a good guy." Albert said with a little pride.

Naturally, they couldn't have really gotten things this far. But just as Dineen was about to speak, Darien suddenly raised his head.

"Nope." He said.

"I know it's embarrassing, Darien......" Tyran tried to convince him. But the little golden retriever shook his head resolutely.

"I'm going with you to Uncle Tirio." He said stubbornly.

Renault blinked, revealing a look of sudden realization: "I'll go too!" ”

He gave a triumphant look to Tyran, who looked incredulous, "You don't think you can really leave us both behind, do you?" I promised my father to take care of you! ”

"I promised your father the same." Tyran said with a straight face. The Mograini brothers flinched, it was clear that the son of Tirio had established his leadership in the small group.

It's not strong yet, though.

"Your and my oaths are of equal validity." Renault was quick to point this out, "You can't let our credibility be trampled on just to fulfill your oath. ”

Tyranny froze. Dining, who felt this déjà vu, raised his arm and pushed Albert, and whispered, "The honor of you people is really a good excuse. ”

Albert laughed briefly, but then remembered who the man was with Tyran. His smile froze on his lips for a moment, then faded coldly.

Tyran continued to try to argue with Renault, but the power of his words came from sincerity and fairness rather than astute arguments, and he was defeated after two or three sentences.

"Won't you stop them?"

"One and three, there is no difference in essence." Dineh craned his arm and replied lightly, "It's all trouble." ”

In this case, Albert took a step forward, leaned over to the three boys, and said, "All right, boys, don't talk as if you will go back if you do this, we are still here." ”

"Waste time on disputes, it's better to think of solutions." Dinen added, "I don't think you'll be able to find Tirio before dawn." ”

"We can go and wait next to the execution ground." Renault suggested.

"At that point, you won't be able to stop him from going to his death, and you won't be able to talk to him properly." Dinen looked at Tyran, "Is this what you want?" ”

Tyran shook his head.

"I wish we had a less fumbled moment, ......after all," he froze, as if he had just realized the consequences of such an action.

Dineen sighed softly.

"Maybe we can't find Tirio." He heuristically said, "But we can find the person he wants to save, can't we?" ”

"Are you saying you have a way to get them to release that orc?" Renault said in amazement.

"Of course not." Dinen said impatiently, "Move that part of your neck, the court has decided to execute him, so who dares to violate the verdict?" ”

"We." Albert said, and Dineh, who was demolished, glared at him.

"Wait, you mean-"

"Yes, Renault, that's what you think." Albert, who was already accustomed to this situation, nodded, "I'm afraid we only have one way, and that is to use violent means." ”

"Do we have to do this?" Darien worried, looking left and right at the same time. Tyran's face was expressionless, he was ready for anything from the moment he decided to assist his father. Renault hesitated for a few seconds, then showed an eager expression, apparently his rebellious brother had taken this as an unprecedented prank.

"Because we are powerless, powerless, and poor." Dineen scoffed. Albert's expression suddenly became very strange, but he covered his face with his hand in time.

Darien subconsciously shrank down beside Albert, obviously still a little afraid of Dinein. The young paladin noticed his movements, so he lowered his hand and rubbed his head, quickly and effectively calmed the little golden retriever, and then explained to him in his partner's disgusted eyes: "If we rescue that orc, tomorrow morning's execution will be canceled, and Tirio's danger will be gone, and we can find him slowly, or he will go straight home." It's worth the risk, isn't it? ”

Darien thought for a moment and nodded solemnly.

"So, let's think about what to do."

***

The prison in Stratholme is located next to the Inquisitioning Hall, on one side of the main square. This makes breaking in from the main entrance an impossible option. Dinen was confident that he would take down all the guards, but if there was a paladin among them, Albert would have a hard time dealing with his colleagues. Moreover, the movement of violent breakthroughs can easily attract more support, and the physical characteristics of the orcs are extremely conspicuous, and they are basically unable to successfully hide their tracks after the robbery.

"If we have a mage, we can use teleportation; Or there is a priest who can be controlled by minds; Or maybe there's a thief ......" Dineen recalled a similar situation he had experienced and his teammates at the time, and then raised his head and glared at the big and three small ones in front of him.

"-So, what's the use of a paladin?"

The expressions of all looked complicated.

Darien slipped up to Albert, grabbed the corner of his coat and motioned for him to bend down, then quietly bit his ear with him: "Won't he really beat you up, Mr. Albert?" ”

Albert lifted his forehead and sighed: "No, it won't ......"

"Then can we beat him up?" Renault also leaned over and asked in a whisper.

Albert was weak: "No, no......"

"-Mograini!"

Tyran gritted his teeth and pulled the two of them back, carrying one in one hand and throwing it in the corner of the wall, then turned around with a serious face.

"Will we be able to lure them out?" He asked, "If we create some chaos in the neighborhood, someone from them should be going to check it out, right?" ”

Dineen was pleased. Generally speaking, paladins are more upright in their thinking, especially those young people who have not experienced actual combat and are full of holy scriptures. Tyran's ability to quickly think of causing chaos and his willingness to accept such tactics was clearly influenced by his father. The older generation of paladins who have experienced the baptism of orc warfare are much more open-minded in their style of acting, and they are not stingy in exercising some schemes.

As for the two mogleni over there, he decided to ignore them.

"That's a good idea, but chaos within the city is often handled by the vigilantes, and prison guards are usually not reckless." Dinen patiently explained to him, "Think about it the other way, if we can force them to transfer the prisoners, we can attack on the road, and the garrison will be much smaller. ”

"So, how do you get them to transfer the prisoners?" Tyran thought positively, "We don't know the number of inmates in the prison, and it's not feasible to destroy the prison. Forged orders? ”

He glanced up at Albert, "What if we ask the Knights for a prisoner in the name that they want to interrogate the orc?" ”

Albert was startled by the offer. It's not that the idea is unexpected, it's just that in the name of the silver hand, even he, a full member, has to do a little psychological construction before he can decide.

Dineen gave him a "I said he was his father's son" look, and then commented, "One step away." ”

Tyran looked up at him in confusion.

"I know you don't like to mention this, but Tirio's release has caused tensions between the Church of Light and the general public." Seeing Tylan's face change, Dinen gently patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, "If the warden has a strong hatred for orcs, he may be suspicious and refuse to hand over that orc to us. ”

"I'm sorry, mate." He turned to Albert and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to have you cooperating with me again this time." ”
