Chapter 196: Escort

Since being kidnapped by Chen Jian and brought back to Harmondale Castle, Mrak was thrown into the dungeon by Chen Jian, honorably becoming the first guest of the newly built Harmondale Castle dungeon.

Due to all kinds of emergencies, Jian Chen didn't do anything to this earl who had caused him to be in trouble now - not that Jian Chen didn't want to, but he really didn't have time.

However, the Earl also suffered a lot in the prison, and the soldiers guarding the dungeon did not have a good impression of him at all after knowing that he had fought against the lord several times and planned to assassinate the lord's Lord.

But what made Mlak feel strange was that Jian Chen didn't give himself to the Krigan Demon, which seemed to him to be a rather incredible thing, no matter how he said it, he was also an important general of the Erathia Empire, and he knew a lot of important information, so there was no reason for the other party to ignore it like this.

Moreover, it was also surprising that Chen Jian dared to stay in Hammondale after being exposed by himself, and in his thoughts, Chen Jian should either immediately raise an army to rebel and try to meet the army of the Crimean Demon to seize Harmonydale, or he should immediately flee in panic and return to his Crimean Demon Master to take refuge.

From the occasional words of the soldiers guarding the dungeon, Mlak deduced that Jian Chen was still staying in Hammondal, and that he had aggressively expanded his army and actively prepared for war, but had not made contact with the Cregans.

What's even more strange is that one of the soldiers once mentioned that Chen Jian was intercepted and killed by the Kerrigan demon on his way back from Fort Werning that day.

What the hell is going on?

Moreover, the imperial army did not come to crusade against Chen Jian for a long time, and the rescue of himself also made Mlak puzzled.

Even if Her Majesty the Empress had already given such an order, there was no reason to sit idly by and watch her own failures, and let Jian Chen come to Hammondal.

Since Mrak had already been knocked unconscious by Sima when the Elemental Clan appeared, Mrak didn't know anything about the Elemental Clan.

Unbeknownst to him, Catherine had indeed planned to crusade against Jian Chen, but had to stop the operation due to the sudden appearance of the Elementals in Hammondale.

Puzzled, Mlak began to think about the whole thing, and then suddenly Mlak realized that something seemed to be wrong.

The letter and the magic teleportation array were a little too easy, why was the Cregan Courier dying when he was discovered?

Could he have fallen into someone's trap, and could Jian Chen have nothing to do with the Kerrigan people at all?

Could it be that he blamed Jian Chen? Is Jian Chen actually loyal to the empire?

But this inference was quickly overturned by Mrak himself, who firmly believed that even if he fell into the trap of others, his actions were correct.

Chen Jian, even if he didn't collude with the Krrigans, must have some other conspiracy, and he couldn't be loyal to the empire.

There are too many things that show that this Chen Jian is secretly doing something that is not good for the empire, and Mrakjue himself uses this opportunity to get rid of him, which is beneficial and harmless for the empire.

It's a pity that he still underestimated Chen Jian, and even let Chen Jian be anti-guest, every time he thought of this, Mlak couldn't help but be angry and burned the top agent to read the full text.

Losing at the hands of Chen Jian was simply the biggest shame in his life.

He secretly swore that as long as he was lucky not to die this time, he would definitely use Chen Jian's blood to wash away this shame.

On this day, Mlak was lifted out of the dungeon and brought to Jian Chen.

"Earl Mrak, are you still in the habit of living in Hammondale Castle these days?"

As soon as they met, Chen Jian greeted Mlak in a mocking tone, which caused laughter from everyone behind Chen Jian.

Mlak snorted coldly, raised his head and said, "Jian Chen, you don't need to be sarcastic about me like this, it will fall into your hands, and if you want to kill it, you have to listen to it!" I'd like to see how long you can be so arrogant! ”

Chen Jian smiled disappreciatively and said, "Count Mrak, as a famous general of the Empire, you have fallen into such a clumsy trap of the Kerrigans, and slandered me so much in front of the Empress, and tried to plot against me in Werningburg, but you still missed my hand, could it be that you still think that I am a spy of the Kerrigan people today?" ”

Hearing this, Mrak's face turned a little red, but his mouth was angry: "Even if you are not a spy of the Kregans, you must have other plans!" You treacherous villain, don't be coy in front of me! As long as I don't die, one day, I will expose your true colors! ”

Seeing that Mlak was so tough, Jian Chen was also a little annoyed: "It turns out that the famous imperial generals are nothing more than that, okay, when you reach the hands of the elemental clan, I don't think you will be so arrogant!" ”

As he spoke, Jian Chen turned his head to the captain of the big-eared monster guard behind him and said, "Orison, you are responsible for escorting this guy to His Excellency Edmund's castle!" Be careful on the road! Don't go wrong! ”

"Elemental family? Who are they? Jian Chen's words made Mlak a little stunned, "Who is Edmund?" ”

Jian Chen sneered and said, "You'll know then, Lord Earl, I wish you a happy journey!" ”

After saying that, Jian Chen ignored Mlak and waved his hand for the soldiers to take him down.

"Jian Chen! You make it clear to me! What is the Elemental Family? Stuck by two soldiers, Mlak struggled desperately and yelled, "Where are you going to get me!" You vile and shameless fellow! ”

But to his disappointment, Jian Chen did not answer his question.

Soon after, Mlak was tied up, then mounted on a horse, and escorted out of Hammondale Castle by a small troop of boar cavalry.

And the leader of the team was none other than the captain of the Big-Eared Monster Guard under Jian Chen, Orison, who had followed Jian Chen to Fort Werning many times, so Mrak was quite impressed with him.

"Orison, where exactly do you want to take me?" Mrak yelled at the big-eared monster, but in exchange for a punch from the big-eared monster in the face.

"Shut up, you bastard, I've put up with you for a long time! Soldier, shut his mouth! I don't want to hear him on the road again! ”

At Orison's orders, one of the soldiers gagged Mlak with a rag, despite his struggles.

Although Mlak was angry, he had no choice but to stare at Orison with resentful eyes, but Orison grinned at him and threw him the back of his head with a helmet on it.

After walking on the road for a while, Mrak's eyes suddenly widened.

The weather was very nice today, with clear skies and a wide view, and the mountains around Hammondale were glowing white in the sun with the enduring snow that had not melted for years.

The scenery in the distance is also clearly discerning, and Mlak can even see the latest chapter of the genius of the reborn woman in the taiga at the foot of the mountain in the distance.

What shocked Mlak was a strange and huge castle that appeared in his field of vision.

The castle is well-shaped and strangely shaped, and Mlak, although well-informed, has never seen a castle of this style.

And Mrak remembers very well that just a few days ago, the location of this castle was a barren clearing.

Where did this castle come from? Mrak could barely believe what he was seeing, and he tried to rub his eyes with his hands, but found that his hands couldn't move at all.

His unusual reaction caused the two Hammondale soldiers standing next to him to laugh dumbly.

"York, this guy seems to have been scared by the Elemental Clan's castle!" One of the human soldiers with small eyes laughed at the other big-eared monster soldier.

The big-eared monster soldier who was called York by his companions also glanced at Mlak happily, and said: "Don't say it, I was shocked when I saw this castle for the first time, I really don't know how those elemental people did it, this speed is a little too terrifying, such a big castle, it was completed in just a few days!" Our Castle of Harmondale had so many dwarves to help it, but it took so long to complete it. By the way, Bart, why did we send this guy to that elemental castle? Is it because of our alliance with the elementals? ”

The human soldier named Bart glared at York, and said softly: "Be quiet, it must be another scolding when Lord Orison hears it, but when it comes to talking about this, you really asked me the right person!" ”

As he spoke, Bart secretly glanced at Orison, who was walking in front, pointed at Mrak, and lowered his voice to York: "You know this guy, the big man in the Imperial Army!" I've heard from Lord Orison that the reason why the Lord is handing this guy over to the Elementals is because the Elementals want to get more information about the Imperial Army from him, and as you know, the Elementals are planning a military operation against the Imperial Army with the Lord! It's a pity that the Elemental Clan left too quickly yesterday, and the lord forgot that he had captured such an important person and threw him in prison, so we had to make a trip! ”

"I see!" York suddenly realized, and then a little indignant: "The empire and that confused empress are really inexplicable, and it is inexplicable to suspect that the lord is a spy of the Krigans!" Now, in order to protect ourselves, we have to form an alliance with these elemental clans of unknown origin! ”

Bart sighed and said, "If you want me to see, the lord can't help it, you can't just wait for death, right?" You can also see the situation that day, the elemental army is pressing the realm, and they don't agree to their requests, but I'm afraid that everyone will be finished, and the lord is also a last resort to protect everyone! ”

As he spoke, Bart approached Mrak and punched the Earl in the face, who was engrossed in eavesdropping on his conversation with his companions: "I heard that this guy caused the trouble, that is, he falsely accused the lord of being a spy of the Krigans!" We're at this point now! ”

Mlak was so punched that he almost fell off his horse.

At this time, Orison glanced back and saw Mrak's embarrassed appearance, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Bart, what are you doing? ”

"Lord Orison, this guy is not honest, let me teach him a lesson!" Bart smirked.

Orison snorted and said, "Don't go too far, if this guy can't speak when he arrives at the Elemental Castle, you're dead!" ”

At this moment, a wild boar heavy cavalry who was walking in the front let out a cheer: "Lord Orisian, there is a small lake in front, shall we go to the lake and rest?" The weather is too hot, and the steel armor on my body is hot! We can go to the lake and wash and get rid of the heat! Horses can also drink some water! ”

Orisen hesitated for a moment, then looked up at the sun in the sky, and finally nodded: "Okay, let's go and rest, but that guy should be careful, if he escapes, the lord will not spare us!" ”

"Lord Orison, let your heart go! This guy can't escape, we're tied very strongly! ”
