When Margaret, whose eyes were red and swollen, silently followed Moriarty and walked slowly, all the wolf cavalry of Longinus, including the old werewolf, were amazed. Because they have long been familiar with the female werewolf's outstanding, spicy, and unyielding personality. If it weren't for what he had seen with his own eyes now, no wolf rider would have believed that Margaret would one day be so obedient, obedient, and somewhat pitiful to follow her "great enemy" with a hint of cowardice in her red eyes.

"What the hell did this human do to Miss Margaret?"

For a moment, the same question rang out in the heads of every wolf cavalryman. Even the sophisticated and calm Clausewitz couldn't help but have a hint of gossip at this moment.

However, compared to the stunned eyes of the people in Wolfgang, the reaction of the people of Doro was much calmer. For a day and a night, the human warriors had already seen the miracles of Moriati's creation of zào too many times. Even now, with the submission of the proud and bold female werewolf commander, it is indeed not a big deal.

"I have already made a decision with Miss Margaret. From now on, Clausewitz will succeed her as acting commander of the Longinus squadron. Margaret herself, in her personal capacity, became my follower for the time being until the minor dispute between the Caravan of Doro and Wolfgang was resolved. Coming to the old werewolf and Grant and the others, Moriarty glanced at everyone and said slowly.

"Become your follower?" Hearing Moriarty's words, the old werewolf was stunned again, and then turned to look at the female werewolf: "Is that so, Miss Margaret?" ”

"Yes." Margaret nodded slightly, peeked at Moriarty's side face again, and said, "Because of my mistake, Longinus suffered unnecessary losses, so I am no longer suitable to be the commander of the squadron." And becoming a temporary follower of Mr. Moriarty was also voluntary. Because in the gladiatorial fight just now, I lost. ”

"Margaret, you don't have to—" The old werewolf immediately spoke to dissuade, but was interrupted.

"I'm sorry, old Crow." The werewolf shook her head at Clausewitz, then bowed deeply.

"This—" The old werewolf was momentarily confused by Margaret's actions, and immediately turned to look angrily at Moriarty on the other side.

"Be able to reflect on your words and actions from time to time, and try to make up for every mistake you have made. It's a quality that a good commander must have, isn't it? Ignoring the old werewolf's angry gaze, Moriarty smiled slightly, but nodded to the werewolf.

"You!"

At this moment, Clausewitz was really a little crying and laughing. It was impossible to accuse the mage of saying something wrong, and he was delighted by Margaret's sudden change. Even when he was working out the plan for the Fourth Punic War for Duke Eugen at the Milon Staff, the old werewolf had never been so entangled.

But in the end, Clausewitz accepted the "result of the discussion" between Moriarty and Margaret, and agreed to temporarily take over the position of commander of Longinus's squadron. As for the female werewolf as a temporary follower of the mage, it was also strictly defined by the old werewolf within a minimum range, that is, once the Longinus squadron regained its freedom, Margaret would automatically resume the status of the military commander, and the name and responsibility of her mage follower would also end at the same time. And Moriarty has no objection to this.

Now that the Doro caravan and the Wolfgang Langinus squadron had agreed on the most critical matter of surrender, the tension on the southern shore of Sandos eased. Although most of the wolf cavalry remained extremely unhappy with the fact that they had been captured, Margaret and Clausewitz's orders were strictly enforced. Moreover, this time, the Doro caravan, or Moriarty, also relied on its strength to force the wolf riders to surrender openly, without using the unsavory villain tricks. So even if they are unconvinced, the arrogant werewolves don't bother to talk nonsense. …,

About half an hour later, Franklin, who had received the signal from Huber's knight, led five or six of his men, who had feigned to flee with him, and returned to the shore of Sandos on horseback. And when he saw a squadron of wolfwolf cavalry standing peacefully with the men of his caravan, the steward could not even believe his eyes. Although he had learned from Huber that Moriarty had successfully forced the enemy down, he still felt like he was in a dream when he faced it.

Then, as the respective plenipotentiaries of Doro and Longinus, Franklin and Clausewitz went aside to secretly discuss how to resolve the current dispute. As for the other humans and wolf riders, they remain in place, waiting for a final "reconciliation" to be reached.

"Mr. Moriarty, I have a question for you." At this moment, the werewolf suddenly stepped up to the mage and asked softly. However, his eyes were still a little lowered, and he didn't seem to dare to look directly into the other party's eyes.

"Excuse me." Without any more cold words, Moriarty looked at Margaret with a smile and said.

"What if... Of course, I'm just assuming... If Old Crow hadn't stopped me before, would you really have killed us all in the Sandos with that horrible magic bolt? Margaret asked with a light bite of her lip.

"Yes." Moriarty's answer was crisp and unpretentious.

"But didn't you say 'don't dare'?" The werewolf immediately asked.

"'Don't dare' is out of awe, but it is not the same as fear or timidity." The corners of Moriarty's eyebrows were slightly raised, but there was a hint of gold and iron in his tone: "I don't want to be Wolfgang's enemy without need, but that doesn't mean I'm not willing to be your enemy." ”

"That's right." Margaret nodded, paused slightly, and then asked, "Then can you tell me what kind of magic you used to deceive us?" When I was looking out on the north shore before, I really thought that the Dora caravan had abandoned a cargo and fled south, so I ordered the squadron to force the pursuit, but unexpectedly fell into your ambush. ”

"That's a second-level spell 'Magic Camouflage'." Moriarty replied without concealment.

"Magical disguise?"

"Yes, the power of magic creates a set of realistic illusions that deceive the vision of others." Seeing the werewolf looking at her curiously, Moriarty explained briefly: "The one you saw all of Doro's abandoning the car and walking south was an illusion formed by this spell. “

"But if the magic camouflage is so magical, why do you set your wagon on fire? Is it just to make the illusion more realistic? Margaret seemed intrigued by this wonderful magic, and asked.

"There are considerations for this." Moriarty smiled, "But the main thing is to numb your sense of smell." ”

"I see." Hearing the word "smell", the female werewolf was immediately stunned. Thinking about it, if it weren't for the strong smell of burnt smoke emitted by the burning wooden cart, even if they were disguised by magic, the strong body odor and bloody aura of those human warriors lying in ambush on the riverbank could not be concealed, let alone the wolf cavalry with amazing sense of smell.

"Mr. Moriarty, are you really just a mage? And not a warrior or a professional field commander? After thinking about it, the female werewolf sighed.

"It's a secret."

To Margaret's question, Moriarty did not answer again, only smiled vaguely. And the werewolf didn't ask any more questions.

Finally, after about fifteen minutes of "tense and friendly" conversation, Franklin and Clausewitz finally reached a package agreement on "post-war reparations and reconciliation." …,

The details are as follows:

1. A complete ceasefire between the Doro caravan and the Wolfgang Langinus squadron with immediate effect;

2. The fait accompli of the squadron of Longinus's admission of its own defeat and surrender to the Doro caravan;

3. As the captive side, Longinus will pay a ransom to the Doro caravan in exchange for his own freedom;

4. Ransom standard: 130 krurod gold shield for each ordinary wolf cavalry (including the wolf), which is equivalent to about 100 bracada gold coins; Acting Squadron Commander Clausewitz 2,000 gold guilders; Margaret, as Moriarty's personal captive, was considered differently;

5. Longinus will send five wolf cavalry back to the Wolfgang headquarters to ask for ransom and report the situation, and the rest of the wolf cavalry will be the temporary servants of the Doro caravan until they are escorted to Fort Ford;

6. Clausewitz will do his best to persuade the Wolfgang leadership not to accept any more "business" against the Doro Chamber of Commerce for three years, and at the same time act as an intermediary to help reach an understanding between Doro and the Barbarian Totem; Of course, the costs and costs of this will be paid separately by the Doro Chamber of Commerce.

After listening to the content of this "peace agreement", Moriarty only nodded faintly to Franklin and did not say a word.

Realistically, such an agreement would be beneficial to both Doro and Longinus, or at least find a sound and viable way out of each other's predicament. Even if the huge actual losses of Doro's side cannot be recovered from the abuser, and even in order to calm the matter, he may even have to go to the pole to ask the barbaric totem for compensation in the future. But this is the case with the balance of power, and if the Dora Chamber of Commerce wants to keep its transportation lines in the Hurricane Wasteland in the future, it will have to do so. And this is the sorrow of the merchants.

"So, what are you going to do with me? How much ransom do you want to get? At this time, Margaret looked at the silent Moriarty and asked in a low voice.

"How many gold guilders do you think you're worth?" Hearing this, Moriarty asked with a smirk.

"This ......"

The werewolf didn't know how to answer at once, and it didn't seem appropriate to say more or less
