Chapter 70: Madred

Squidward told everything he knew under Zhang Hao's questioning, the Red Duke is a vampire faction, but it is not the leader of this faction that it is loyal to, but the undead dark race of the other continent Tomb King, the Red Duke is like a bridgehead, not expanding or invading, that is, firmly guarding his own one-third of an acre of land, as long as the Tomb King needs, the Red Duke's territory is the first castle of the Tomb King. For countless years, Bretonnia wanted to make his land complete, but an artifact called the Millennium Pyramid firmly guarded the main city of the Red Duke, resisting Bretonnia's waves of attacks, and even the Fairy of the Lake was helpless. And the scarab beetle is summoned by this thousand-year-old pyramid, and Ulska Octopus has seen this creature fall into the sea with the corpse in the sea, and the scarab beetle can come and go freely even in the sea......

A few days later, Zhang Hao's ship successfully arrived at the port of Talabeheim, where Lilith and the chief of the Knights of the Sun, Orsaith, were already waiting.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, come and hug one!" Zhang Hao was very happy to see Lilith, and directly ignored Ossaith who was standing aside.

"Your Highness, don't make trouble, now you have to get down to business." Lilith didn't expect Zhang Hao to be so open, and picked herself up in front of Ossaith and many guards and spun around twice.

"Ahem, I've seen Your Highness, I wish Your Highness prosperity in martial arts!" Ossaith greeted Zhang Hao awkwardly.

"Ossaith! Are the Knights of the Sun ready? ”

"Your Highness, please instruct!" Ossaith straightened up and said loudly.

"Set out with me at once, and target the eastern border of Steele Province!"

"Your Highness? You don't take a break? The Castle Lord has already prepared a meal and is waiting for you at the Castle Lord's Mansion. Lilith was surprised to hear it, it was too hard.

"The military situation is important, I'll treat him to dinner next time I come, but now we're going to start in a hurry, Ossaith! In ten minutes, I'm going to see the first Knights of the Sun walk out of the gates! ”

"Follow your orders, Your Highness!" After smacking his heart with his right hand, Ossaith immediately rode towards the headquarters of the Knights of the Sun with his men.

"Lilith, are you coming?" Zhang Hao asked a little softly after seeing Ossaith leave.

"Will it be dangerous?" Lilith looked directly at Zhang Hao and asked.

"Both the Dawn God of War and Sigmar will bless you." Zhang Hao replied with an arrogant face.

"We have eight minutes left." Lilith grabbed Zhang Hao's hand and ran towards her own horse.

Teucer and Bini arrived in Ivey Province one step earlier because they were riding on the wool line, and the garrison on the border of Steele Province temporarily took over the newly formed legion.

Six mid-level light mages, six light mages, twenty steam tanks, and two full forty artillery pieces. Ten full troops, there are more than three full artillery units, which would have been unimaginable before, but now such a regiment is said to be a total of six, this news makes any imperial person feel extremely proud after hearing it, and the people's self-confidence comes from the strength of the country.

"Teucer, Lord Chrissy has sent a message that the thieves are traveling east from Steele Province day and night, and are expected to cross Steele Province to reach the border in about a week." When Bini walked to Teuker's temporary office, he found a map and began to annotate it according to the message Chrissy had given.

"What did Your Highness say?" Teucer asked as he walked over to Bini and watched him measure with a ruler in his hand.

"Stop him! Don't let His Highness return to his territory until he arrives! After receiving the news from Chrissy, Bini reported to Zhang Hao as soon as possible.

"You draw first, I'll go gather the army." Arrest people, no matter what method is used, and those who get there first.

Although the legion was newly formed, because it was stationed on the border of the vampires, there was not a single recruit, and the soldiers began to pack up as soon as they received the order, and it only took an hour for the legion in the garrison state to begin to advance towards their northeast.

"This is where I marked the places where the enemy might arrive, three places in all." Sitting on his horse, Binny handed the map he had just calculated to Teucer very seriously. "Although the three places are not far away, once we have the opportunity to take measures, we may not be able to find this thief again even if we enter the Silvania area."

"There's no way, it's just the same rules."

"Come on."

"Rock, scissors, paper!"

"Rock, scissors, paper!"

The two made their choice using the ruling given to them by Zhang Hao, with Teucer staying and Binny sitting on the yarn to work as a scout. It's not that you can't trust the witch hunter under Chrissy, but you can't trust the vampire, a vampire who dares to commit crimes in the imperial palace of today's strength is not an ordinary ghost, in order to improve the accuracy of the roundup, Bini had to set off first.

Madred Starborg, the Red Duke's most trusted and powerful officer, is a spell chant and melee expert, and at the moment he has two other officers riding their own skeletons and galloping through the avenues of the Human Empire.

He is one of the masterminds of this theft in the Empire, as the Red Duke's most relied on subordinate, this time not only did he personally dispatch, but also used a time bomb buried in the Empire in advance, the Screaming Banshee, and the only scarab that could be returned without being summoned. All of this was done to befriend Silvania's two heavily armed counts.

I don't know when it started, the power of the pyramid in the previous year was constantly decreasing, but the Tomb King, who had always been in contact, suddenly cut off all contact in less than a year, which made the Red Duke feel helpless, and even sent hundreds of teams to find another continent with this vast sea, but the result was always unacceptable.

Finally, when he learns that the army of Bretonnia is about to take another exam, the Red Duke has to prepare to ask for help from the two counts he once despised all along. The two counts agreed conditionally, one asked to kill Zhang Hao, the other asked for the silver seal in the treasure house, and the two asked the red duke to resolutely choose the latter after having a headache, because wanting to kill Zhang Hao, who lived in the academy, was tantamount to a long life, not to mention whether he could kill Zhang Hao, and whether his army could leave the territory of Bretonnia was a problem.

But he never expected that the elite troops of the empire, the witch hunters, would soon discover the whereabouts of the others. In order to evade and complete the deal with one of the vampire counts on time, Margred had to go all the way around the clock. But what he never understood was that no matter how closely the people who were chasing him behind him, he would not see any regular Imperial troops encircling him, and Margred didn't have time to think about it, the only thing he could do now was to run......
