Chapter 388: Another Princess

The night passed quickly, and the calm was impossibly calm, and the nervousness of the garrison officer seemed to turn into nervousness.

The scouts reported no anomalous information, and while Unas was still a little suspicious, there was no reason to stop the party from proceeding.

The members of the squad who were left behind by him last night also showed up one by one, and they did not encounter any more enemies, and they caught up with them smoothly.

Could it be that the two waves of dwarves encountered last night were just coincidences? Or the calm before the storm?

Unas glanced back worriedly, and Luisa and Gail, who had been disguised, were not far behind him.

Seeing him coming, the girl half-raised her little hand and shook slightly to greet him.

The cuteness of the appearance is heartwarming, and Unas feels that he needs to protect her well.

The canyon is hotter during the day than at night, and the red earth and rocks give the illusion of being in a furnace.

The refugees staggered across the scorching red soil, unable to move fast at all, and their goal of reaching the border in a week could be delayed by days.

Unas rode on the tall and mighty King Kong and opened the way at the front of the group.

As time passed, he gradually let his guard down, because he couldn't see even a single thief, and the almost unchanged scenery was tiring.

After a long day and a quiet pass, the team arrived at a black iron dwarf excavation site before nightfall, urged by Unas.

This is already the edge of Spark Territory, and the excavation site is naturally the property of Senna-Spark.

The soldiers and workers stationed here had already been informed that such a human contingent was about to pass through.

Not to mention enthusiasm or indifference, the dwarves at least prepared open space and clear water for the humans to camp on.

Unas's status in the Black Iron Kingdom belongs to the High Lords, and he is of the same class as Senna-Spark.

Therefore, the leaders of the excavation site had to be treated according to the courtesy, although they were not very willing to be close to a human being emotionally.

Ulas was invited into one of the cleanest and most tidy caves, with wine and food.

"If you have any other orders, please feel free to bring them up, and we will do our best to satisfy you."

"Nothing else, as long as you stay and drink with me."

The manager of the excavation site was a big red-bearded man with a sad face, "We still have to rush to work, and the adults will have to hurry tomorrow, so let's rest..."

"I've got good wine here," Unas said, taking out his treasure wine and spilling some of it, "it's a hundred times better than your light fruit wine!" ”

The strong aroma of wine suddenly filled the room, and several dwarves immediately lost their walk.

The captain of the guard sniffed sharply, "Could this be the golden brew of the Black Iron Bar?" ”

"That's right," Unas picked up a few cups and filled them one by one, "you don't have a drink of one and you're living in vain." ”

"A hundred years of gold brew! I've only smelled it at the gentlemen's banquets! One of the deputy foremen screamed and swallowed, wanting to drink but not daring to speak, just staring at the redbeard manager.

The steward was surrounded by the gaze of his subordinates, and helplessly said something that even he didn't believe, "Just a cup!" ”

The dwarves' addiction to alcohol would not be easily satisfied, and Unas took out a few more bottles of wine, which were quickly poured out.

The two of them became a little drunk and happy, and Unas suddenly became their best friend.

He took the opportunity to inquire about the news, "Is there any news in the canyon lately?" ”

"There is too much news, such as the Spark Lord's newly married wife, whose thick legs, majestic shoulders and thick black beard are so charming!"

"yes, I really want to sleep with her fat ass, it must be very cool!"

Unas imagined the scene for a moment, his stomach churning with alcohol, he almost vomited, and quickly changed the subject, "What about the Twilight cult and the rebels?" ”

"Those cultists have been recruiting people very well recently, and one of my distant cousins was arrested and spent a lot of ransom to get him back, but he has been brainwashed and shouts about the end of the world, the ancient gods and the like all day long, this life is over!"

"What are you? My aunt's family of five has been trapped, and there is no news yet! ”

Seeing that the scene was about to turn into the bitter lord assembly of the Twilight Sect, Unas hurriedly asked, "Are there many cultists around here?" ”

"We're okay here, Lord Senna-Spark strictly forbids religion, but it's different after leaving Spark Territory," the captain of the guard subconsciously lowered his voice even if he was drunk, "I heard that there are several newly attached lords who are still involved in the cult. ”

"Ahem!" There was also a trace of sober red-bearded stewards who quickly interrupted with a dry cough, "Hank, be careful, don't talk nonsense!" ”

"What nonsense, it was meant to be..."

"That's it! Don't disturb the rest of Lord Unas, you still have to work overtime at night! ”

Several dwarves suddenly wailed, and were helplessly pulled out by the chief steward.

"Rest early, adults, we're leaving."

Unas originally just wanted to find out some news casually, but the land snake was so alert that he couldn't ask anything, and he didn't want to force it, so he nodded and let the dwarf go.

However, what I didn't expect was that it didn't take long for the captain of the guard to sneak back again, and find a high-sounding reason - to personally guard the gate for the distinguished guests.

Unas, of course, knew what was on his mind, and once again took out a few bottles of good wine he had bought at the Black Iron Bar, and invited the dwarf in for three drinks.

"Captain Hank, does the Lord Steward know you're back with me?"

"He doesn't need to know, hiccup, I lied to him that I went out on patrol, hahaha, that fool!"

The dwarf was completely drunk and spoke ill of his superiors without holding back his mouth.

Unas toasted while pulling back and forth to obtain information, and after a meal of wine, the red-faced dwarves almost regarded him as his own brother, and the affairs of the eight generations of his ancestors were clearly explained.

Unas picked up a very interesting message from the dwarves' nonsense:

Recently, several rebel armies that have been wandering in the canyon have gone against the norm and have neither fought nor robbed, and have unanimously carried out a large-scale search and arrest of bandits in various places, thus making public order much better in most areas.

Unas wondered if the refugee team did not encounter any harassment on the way, it turned out that someone had cleared the road for them in advance.

But the question arises, are these dwarven armies who are unwilling to surrender to Lundahn so kind?

You know, although they are all rebels, they have long been divided into several separate warlords, and no one can command anyone, what drives them to work together?

There must be a common goal.

The most obvious target in the canyon now is the human contingent escorted by Unas.

An inexplicable sense of crisis sounded the alarm, but he couldn't understand even if he wanted to break his brain, what was the value of these more than 2,000 almost impoverished human refugees, who were worthy of such a stirring up by the other party?

If it is to rob human beings as slaves, there is no need to purge the bandits.

Something must have gone wrong.

Before he knew it, the sky had turned white, and Unas thought about it for a night, but he didn't come up with a reason.

He immediately gathered his subordinates, who had just gotten out of bed, and voiced his concerns.

After some discussion, no useful conclusions were reached.

However, everyone was full of confidence, and felt that with the 800 Stormwind City army, they would definitely be able to repel those lost dogs.

It's just that everyone didn't notice the panic in the eyes of the two brothers with red eyebrows and stone eyebrows.

After the meeting was dismissed, the dwarven brothers hurried back to their small group - Unas had promised to send some copperbearded civilians home, so there were also a hundred copperbearded dwarves among the refugees.

The dwarf couldn't hide something in his heart, he was uncomfortable in the meeting just now, and now the heavy mood of the two brothers was immediately expressed on his face, and he didn't dare to breathe and whispered to each other.

"How did the news leak out? There was such a big movement. ”

"Just ask her?"

"It's too abrupt to look for her now, wait for the evening."

"Do you want to tell the garrison the truth..."

"You're crazy, since you've done it, you're going to do it to the end, if he knows about it now, he'll definitely send her back immediately, is this what you want to see?"

"But sooner or later it will be exposed."

"As long as we hold on to the border, it will be a victory, and someone over there will definitely come to meet us."

"Hey!" Shi Mei glanced back at an elderly female dwarf not far away, and sighed heavily.

The march had been quiet and uneventful throughout the day, and as soon as it was dark, the dwarven brothers could not wait to find an excuse to pull the old woman into the tent.

"Two fools, I said, you are not allowed to have any contact with me on the way!"

The old woman's voice was harsh and stern, apparently disguised by a younger woman.

"Your Highness, the situation is urgent, please understand."

The dwarven brothers lowered their heads, not daring to breathe, they had all seen the temper of this princess, and it was not inferior to the female tyrannosaurus.

"Say something!"

"The rebels in the canyon..."

"What rebels?! That's the warriors who are still loyal to the Thorrisen Empire, you have to figure out where you stand, Lundahn and his minions are the rebels! ”

"Yes, yes, but how could they act together at this time, it's too much of a coincidence, isn't it..."

"Even if you still have some brains, of course I secretly notified them to come and meet me."

"But, but you promised that we would secretly send you back to Ironforge without anyone else knowing."

"Humph! So you two are fools, what's the use of me going back alone? My father may even put me under house arrest, but it's not the same with the Black Iron Army in his hands, at least he has the power to protect himself. ”

The two brothers were speechless, the matter had come to this point, and the other party's untrustworthiness made them feel helpless.

"You say those traitors... The Black Iron Army is just here to greet you, they won't be bad for our refugee team, will they? ”

"Our team? Haha," the old woman smirked contemptuously, "Listen, Lord Redeyebrow, your cousin thinks of himself as a human!" ”

"I mean Silver Dawn," Stonebrow blushed, "they took in the remnants of the homeless dwarves, and the Unas knights saved my life and many dwarves from demons, we can't be ungrateful!" ”

"So you're going to be loyal to that human and betray the Copperbeard Family?!"

"I didn't think so..."

"Then obediently obey my orders! I am the heir of the Copperbeard family, your future queen! To betray me is tantamount to treason! ”

The old woman made a strong threat, and her eyes swept over the two of them with a look that did not allow anyone to question, and the two Shimei brothers could only bow their heads.

"Hmph, those humans were originally slaves captured by us, all of them are the property of the Thoresen Empire, I want to take them back reasonably and legally, and you are not allowed to have any objections!"
