After dark, Ensada was in a kind of oppressive tranquility, the whole city was still under strict control, and at the moment of eight o'clock, it would only take more than an hour to enter the time of curfew-

A few pedestrians and carriages hurried through the streets, and in almost every section of the city, you could see groups of soldiers in military uniforms patrolling, their sharp spears held by the soldiers' arms in front of their shoulders, and the sound of their neat and uniform steps falling to the ground, which suddenly brought an extremely strong sense of slaughter.

This is Ensada on the eve of the war, many people have left the city, many people have come to the city, the shops on both sides of the streets have become deserted, and in some inns and taverns, the lights have become brighter, and the smell of ale has become stronger—

Ale is a good thing, it can make people forget pain and sorrow, it can also anesthetize people's nerves, make sleepless insomniacs sleep in a thick drunkenness, and in some cases, it can even turn a coward into a brave warrior.

The sound of horses' hooves.

The streets along the Penta Colin were now dark, the distant lights blurred the scene, the branches of the trees swaying in the evening breeze, the mottled shadows swaying back and forth, and the group seemed to have fallen into a state of preoccupation after leaving the Rose Hall of the theater, silent with each other, no longer talking and laughing.

Stewart, on horseback, looked up.

In the blue night, Gou Yue was shrouded in dark clouds, the bright starlight in the sky seemed to have lost its original brilliance, everything seemed to be in a fog that could not be seen clearly, he had been a mercenary for a long time, but for what was about to happen in the city, he had found that his heart was at a loss-

His eldest brother, Pyrot, was on par with him, and Mr. Scholar, who had always been fond of nagging, fell into a rare silence at the moment, his eyes were level with the front, but in front of him, there was only an endless dim night.

"Stewart, what are you thinking?"

In the middle of the night, when the team of cyclists left the Ensakorin Theater and saw the vast city lord's mansion from a distance, Mr. Scholar finally turned his head sideways, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly asked Stewart—

His question seemed aimless on the surface, but as soon as it came out, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the team.

The three wolf trio Scott, Oliver and Levine, the silent "Redbeard" Red, and Radia who wrapped herself tightly in the mage's robes, all of them, at this moment, all set their eyes on Stewart's body-

They nominally belong to the same mercenary group, and Stuart is the deputy head of this mercenary group.

At this time, Gross was not by their side - more experienced and determined Stewart had the trust of the whole team than anyone else.

"Hurry to the City Lord's Mansion, no matter what happens, we must pick up Gross."

He replied calmly—

Although he thought about it a lot, he never forgot that Gross was his friend. Gross infiltrated the city lord's palace in Ensada as a Talon officer, so all he needed to do was go to that heavily guarded place to answer-

If his enemies were local nobles, then he would not hesitate to draw his sword against them.

Stewart didn't know what was going to happen in the next moment, he smelled a faint scent of hyacinths, and not far in front of them, a column of soldiers patrolling with spears appeared—

The captain of the soldier at the head of the army was holding a wind lantern in his hand, and he couldn't help but look at these figures on horseback, and the queue of patrolling soldiers stopped, and the captain of the soldier arrogantly beckoned to Stewart.

"Stop! Who are you? ”

The captain of the soldiers shouted—

These people rode tall horses, and their outfits were also standard mercenary attire, and at the current time of daily control and curfew on the eve of the war, such a group of strange foreign mercenaries came to the vicinity of the city lord's mansion in Ensada at night, obviously with bad intentions-

If they wish to serve the Earl, they can visit them during the day.

The captain of the soldiers, who was standing on the side of the horse, glanced at Stewart and the rest of the group, his expression was originally extremely serious, but when he saw Miss Mage in the back row of the line, his eyes immediately lit up-

Night patrol is not H2
