Morning Glory Town, Viscount's Mansion.

Dressed in black and white maid costumes, lions, cat girls, fox girls, and rabbit girls walk around and light animal fat lamps with flints.

The sprawling marble mansion is lit with a dim light that shines through the variegated glass, the windows reveal psychedelic colors, and illuminate the surrounding green gardens, giving the aristocratic mansion a classical beauty in the dark.

"Lord Viscount."

The chief butler lowered his head, and the lion's tail behind him hung down, and he had something to say.

"What's the matter?" Viscount Morning Glory lowered the small silver cup at his lips and stared at the open glass window with faintly pale golden eyes.

The beautiful fox girl next to her took the silver cup with both hands, she was wearing a black and white maid dress, with a beautiful green hair, convex and backward, and the fox tail behind her shook gently, which was very tempting.

However, the great steward of the lion clan did not look at her, and the viscount did not look at the maid, who silently lowered her head and left the room with a cup and plate in her hand.

When the maid closed the door, the chief butler said softly, "Lord Viscount, there are many orcs in the town today who trick our people into going to the Great Iron Village. ”

"Oh?"

Viscount Morning Glory raised his brows slightly, he remembered that the temple had sent five hundred wounded soldiers south to investigate the mystery of the mine ship in Datie Village, and the five hundred wounded soldiers had not returned so far.

The temple is planning to send some scouts to investigate, the number of scouts is not large, the number of scouts is not much, the elite Templars are sent, they are scout veterans, about five people, with the purpose of not disturbing the other party first, mainly to reconnoiter on the periphery, it is best to catch some outgoing orcs from the big iron village to investigate.

Unexpectedly, a few days after the disaster, Datie Village jumped out impatiently and openly robbed the population.

"Aren't they afraid of death, since they are so presumptuous, it is better to destroy it."

"I'm afraid it's a little difficult, now the Moonlight Valley Fortress is the territory of the Minotaurs, and now there are goblins in the forests all over the east, they have strong reproductive ability, and it is possible to generate medium-sized beast tides to threaten villages and towns, and the kingdom's troops can't draw manpower."

"Huh?" The Viscount glared, angry.

He only had a few hundred private soldiers, and without state support, he was afraid that he would be bleeding profusely.

"Do you want to let them be presumptuous in my territory?"

Fine sweat appeared on the forehead of the chief butler, "Lord Viscount, the king means to let you take care of yourself, Datie Village is your mining village, no matter how noisy it is, it is not important for state affairs."

In addition, the Silver Earl said that he could set aside five hundred lion soldiers to support your territory, but he asked you to attack with all your troops, and he also wanted a three-year discount from the mine......"

The kingdom has little interest in the small mining village, and the soldiers sent last time have not returned, which makes the kingdom very angry, but the five hundred lion soldiers have been lost, and it is definitely not possible to send only a few hundred lion soldiers again, at least two thousand lion soldiers.

The war on the eastern frontier was tight, and the king looked down on that poor and remote little village, and if it weren't for the interests of the southern mines, he might not even look at it.

The viscount gradually sorted out this relationship, the Great Iron Village side is a civil war, and the Moonlight Valley Fortress is a national war, and it can be seen at a glance who is heavy and who is light.

Besides, the beast tide is heading south, and the weak Datie Village may have been leveled by the beast tide, so they can arrange new slaves to mine.

If Datie Village hadn't been flooded, and there were basically remnants, Morning Glory Town would have been able to deal with it.

It is not incomprehensible that the Silver Earl took the opportunity to make a fortune.

"Damn ......," Viscount gritted his teeth.

"Shall we promise the Silver Earl?" The big butler worried.

In the Lionheart Kingdom, there are five titles, namely the Duke and the Prince, the Earl is greater than the Viscount of Morning Glory, and there are three or four thousand private soldiers in his territory.

"No, wait a moment and wait for the Templars to investigate the cause of their companion's death before we act." Viscount Morning Glory blew his beard and forcibly held back the killing intent in his heart.

If it weren't for this damn beast tide, how dare Datie Village be presumptuous.

No, because of the beast tide, Datie Village should be swallowed up by now, but the disappearance of five hundred wounded soldiers shows that the armed forces of Datie Village have reached a certain scale, otherwise they wouldn't have sent even a carrier pigeon.

Unbeknownst to the Viscount, however, that when the sailboat exploded that day, a scout had indeed sent a letter to the little carrier pigeon.

He didn't know that the little carrier pigeon flew for a while, got into the woods and flew back to Datie Village, passed the letter to the village chief Allen, and received more than forty grains of rice in his hands.

If the viscount knew that that precious information was only worth forty grains of rice, he would definitely not be so calm.

……

On the outskirts of Datie Village, five golden-eyed lion soldiers wore light armor and leather boots, hunched forward through the forest, finding a tree to mark the standard every time they took a step forward.

They didn't squeeze together, each separated by at least ten meters.

If they are attacked at this distance, the other lion soldiers will instantly abandon their companions and turn away, just to pass on the information.

"This forest is normal, there is no fierce fighting."

"It's so strange, are the five hundred lion soldiers swallowed up by the devil?"

"Let's go and investigate the channel between the canal and the river of the Great Iron Village, I know that Charles and Joseph are not reckless people, if they were, they will definitely park the boat outside first, and will not stop at the mouth of the river on the west bank of the Great Iron Village." The Scout brushed aside the leaves.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the intersection of the Grand Canal and the small river in Datie Village.

"Goo!"

They were about to go to see the river, but the sound of pigeons sounded in the woods, and the five lion soldiers nervously looked around nervously, but they did not see any orcs or wild beasts.

"It's okay, keep looking."

The five scouts walked to the river, which was not very clear, but blue.

"There are no anomalies."

This river comes from the 100,000 mountains, and it is a very wide and deep channel, and they can't see through the bottom of the water at a glance, and they don't know what's inside.

He sneaked into the water and touched it, but he didn't find anything, so he turned back to the woods, ready to investigate the mouth of the river on the west bank.

It was also at this time that five black shadows fell silently from the sky.

……

Alan was working in his office when he suddenly learned from Natasha that the five Templar Scouts sent by the Templars had been subdued by the Assassins, and asked Alan what to do.

"Lord Allen, they represent the Temple, and they said that if they are not released, the Temple will level the Great Iron Village in the future."

"Oh, so what did you come up with?" Alan was amused, the kingdom was now confronting the Minotaur outside Moonlight Valley, and there was no room for it.

"They came to investigate five hundred wounded soldiers."

"In this case, why don't you send it to mining." Alan thought that the mining output of Da Tie Village had not been high enough.

"But how do we control them, they are the same awakened ones at the peak, their pupils are all golden, and their power is infinite, if it weren't for the assassins who locked their power points with special lock joint techniques, they would have broken free from the shackles a long time ago."

"Well, then let's continue to interrogate, and set out all the awakening methods of their temple, I have been thinking about how to develop the native talents of other orc races recently."
