Roddy didn't expect to be in the limelight in front of these two old foxes, and it was a pure coincidence that such a thing happened at this time. But now it seems that he unexpectedly won the favor of the two...

But these old guys really don't talk well, and Roddy also knows that he can't ask for more, so he can only laugh and say nonsense like "It's okay, it's all a misunderstanding".

And this luncheon naturally could not continue now, and Rubens also understood this, and immediately said a few words to the Duke about the disposal of the undead, and then politely greeted Roddy, turned his head and hurried back to the abbey. The appearance of the undead in the Duke's palace was also a big event for Rubens - such an act of the Tasman Kingdom was definitely a sign of something unknown to the people, and he had to let the "Temple" know such important information as soon as possible.

Roddy, who stayed in the dining room, immediately asked the duke to thoroughly check everyone in the duke's mansion again, and use the ring in his hand to screen for the existence of other undead.

The Duke of Angmar agreed to this request without any hesitation, and immediately asked people to gather all the members in the Duke's Palace--such a toss, the Duke's Palace immediately became lively, and nearly a hundred people, such as servants, coachmen, butlers, forest guards, and so on, began to be arranged in an orderly manner towards the mansion...

But in such a situation, Sally, who ran out early, is still in a state of "not knowing anything"...

In the garden at the back of the mansion, Sally was tugging at the leaves in her hands, saying things like "bastard", "wood", "idiot"...

Sixteen years old is too young after all, although Sally's growth in the past few months is extremely obvious, but if you look carefully, her "growth" is only reflected in dealing with ordinary things after all, and in terms of feelings, she is still a blank slate, and she can't be as easy as those old guys who have been tempered by the years.

"Saying this in front of so many people, you already figured out how to get rid of me..."

In slightly cooler weather, it's not a good idea to wear a long dress with your collarbones exposed. Sally pouted and complained a few words before feeling a little cold - but she didn't leave the back garden, but stood here stubbornly, although she knew that there was a saying that "anger is to punish yourself for the mistakes of others", but she really would rather suffer this kind of sin than go back to face Roddy...

What a disappointment!

Sally suddenly discovers that this seems to be the only time Roddy has "taken the initiative" to express his feelings for herself - but it turns out... But he hopes that he will go as far as possible, and for as long as possible.

Does Roddy really hate herself?

She recalls that on the way to escape, Roddy had mentioned a woman he couldn't forget, and Sally didn't know anything about "that woman" except that she knew that the other party had red hair.

Do you want to compete for status with a woman who can't even see a shadow? It's unknown whether that woman is alive or not! Seeing that Roddy looks sad every time he mentions her, I'm afraid that something has happened or she has been saddened, right?

Sally shook her head, she shivered from the cold because of the cold, and then her little hand hugged her shoulder, looking pitiful.

All she could think about was the appearance of all kinds of "imaginary enemies"... But after thinking about it for a few seconds, she stomped her foot fiercely and snorted - it has always been a group of knights who threw gloves at each other for a woman to fight for their heads, how could the daughter of a dignified duke have to rack her brains to chase a scout captain?

"Didn't you know that stupid person came out to me?"

Sally pursed her lips angrily, and finally decided to go back to the bedroom, but as soon as she had walked a few steps, she saw a large group of servants rushing over outside the back garden, and the sound of conversation reached her ears through the cold wind.

"It looks like an undead!"

"The lord said he would check everyone's identity—"

"How do you check? Like last time?"

"I don't know, anyway, I heard it has something to do with that scout captain..."

A large group of hulala walked over, and Sally raised her eyebrows, feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere. The words "undead" and "scout captain" aroused irrepressible curiosity in her heart, and she walked along the path, and when she met a maid from the mansion along the way, she stopped her and asked, "What happened?"

"Miss Sally—I don't know, the Duke just ordered us all to come over, but I heard what kind of inspection is going to be done. ”

There were many servants in the huge mansion, and what had just happened in the short past few minutes had not yet reached the point where everyone knew about it, so this maid was as confused as Sally at this time.

"Well... It's okay, then you can go first. ”

Sally smiled, but because of the cold, she tightened her arm on her shoulder again, and the confusion between her eyebrows became a little heavier, and she took a few more steps, just in time to see the Wellington Knight who was coming back from outside-the latter had a serious face, and there was still some unrestrained evil aura on his body, but when he saw Sally, this aura disappeared immediately.

"Uncle Wellington. ”

Sally greeted politely, not knowing that the knight in front of her had just pressed the undead Mel in the room and tied it up with a hammer, and she saw that the other party's originally clean dress had a little fuchsia stain, and suddenly asked, "This is... Bloodstains?"

Looking down at his body, Wellington didn't deny it, and nodded his head: "It's bloodstains, something happened to the restaurant just now." ”

"What's the matter?"

Sally stepped forward with the Wellington Knight as they prepared to return to the mansion, slightly lifting the corners of their skirts, their faces full of doubt, and they couldn't think of how they could get blood after a meal.

"That maid Mel is an undead, and Captain Roddy just now broke through her disguise and subdued her—oh, the second you walked out of the cafeteria. ”

Wellington usually looks like an emotionless robot, but in fact, his mind is much more active than Titus, and he can see that Sally is sad and weeping because of Roddy's words, and at this time, he naturally wants to try to improve Roddy's image - after all... Just make her happy.

Sure enough, Sally's originally depressed face suddenly rose up after hearing this, and asked with a pale face, "Death... Undead?Mel? She's not—"

"It's the one who has been standing behind you, I think... Captain Roddy was afraid that the undead would suddenly hurt you, so he deliberately said those words. ”

Her footsteps stopped instantly, and Sally looked around in a bit of a panic, suddenly looking a little at a loss. It's impossible to say that I'm not afraid, after all, anyone who knows that a maid who has been in the Duke's Palace for ten years and can see almost every day is an undead will not be calm, and Sally even remembers... Wearing this dress today, it seems that Mel helped tie the belt...

So, Roddy saved her life again?

The face of the guy he had just called a "bastard" came to mind, and she immediately asked a little anxiously, "That's-Captain Roddy... He's not hurt, is he?"

"No, Captain Roddy was decisive. ”

Wellington shook his head, seeing Sally so concerned, he couldn't help but feel that Roddy was really lucky, and chuckled: "The Overseer has left, and the Duke is chatting with him in the living room, will you go over now?"

"I-I'll go change my clothes and come, don't wait for me. ”

After hesitating for a moment, Sally found a casual reason and hurried away, until after changing out of the gorgeous long dress, her little heart was still pounding, and the original annoyance and resentment had turned into a sweet sense of happiness.

That guy was trying to me off on purpose...

finally understood that Roddy was doing this for his own good, and Sally's heart knot was basically untied. But she decided to apologize to the fellow face to face, for she couldn't shed so many tears in front of the Overseer and her father—but as she walked to the side of the parlor, she was silenced by the sound of voices coming from within.

"Speaking of which, to be able to think of a way to get Sally out of the way quietly in such a situation is really to praise you for your wit. ”

The Duke of Angmar's voice was very easygoing, even with a slight smile.

"I... Ahem, I actually had some misunderstanding with Miss Sally yesterday, so... She seems to have some prejudices against me today," Roddy's voice was a little helpless, "I don't know if it will work to provoke her on purpose, I didn't think about it that much at the time, I just think that even if she is in a hurry to come and beat me, it would be good to stay away from that guy..."

This fool ...

The corners of Sally's mouth curled slightly.

"That guy can't be killed, it's better to ask everything she can ask, I have a letter here, I found it after killing Alpha, but..."

Roddy then talks about the "undead", and at the mention of this, Sally remembers that it was this guy who woke up her father - so that two generations of the Roussiflon family were completely saved by him...

If it weren't for him, I'm afraid the family would have been in Francis' hands now, right?

"I already have a rough idea of the undead, but now I have a question..."Duke Angmar suddenly became slightly heavy after asking a lot of questions, "Francis and the orcs, what the hell is going on?"

When such a question was spoken, Sally, who was eavesdropping, felt her heart sink.

Roddy thought about it for a moment, in fact, he had many alternative answers to such a question in his mind, but remembering the words that Francis said in Cobb Forest, he felt that the seriousness of this matter had reached the point where he had to talk about it "openly and honestly":

"Actually... Before that, I took the scouts of Nolan Village on a trip to the Orc Kingdom. ”

When such words were spoken, even the faces of the two knights who had experienced a hundred battles changed, and the Duke of Angmar straightened his back with a solemn expression, but he did not ask whether it was true or false, but said in a low voice: "Kill... A lot of orcs?"

"Counting it, more than 400 people were killed, including more than 100 wolf cavalry and a witch doctor. Roddy was succinct and uninterested in revealing what he had done to the lord, "It's not about how many orcs we've killed, it's about the witch doctor - he was the one who got in touch with Francis and secretly sent a team of wolf cavalry to intercept Sally." ”

"You killed the witch doctor?

Duke Angmar's tone suddenly became a little excited, and although Roddy was a little surprised, he still replied seriously, "It's Rohar's hammer." ”

"It's them!?"
