Chapter 60: A Pair of Old Friends

The goblins outside the Tiger Tooth Pass did not attack, but they were closer to the level.

Kerry, the squadron leader of the Linfeng squadron, had already pulled the bowstring and gently lowered it again. The fiery arrow was also thrown into a nearby brazier.

"My lord, wouldn't it be possible to disperse the goblins by hanging that female assassin there!, she couldn't communicate with the goblins at such a distance!" Kerry finally asked the question in his heart.

The reason why the female assassin was hung there was an order from Yunlang. At first, Mansha didn't quite understand it, but now she roughly understood Yunlang's intentions.

"Hehe, as the lord said, letting her disperse the goblin is just one of the options, if you can succeed, it is naturally better, if you can't succeed, we still have backup, there is nothing to be afraid of! Hanging her there now at least plays a role in delaying the goblin attack, these alone are already very valuable!" she paused, calculated the time, and said to herself: "If Wren Hart, the garrison of the Thorn Vine Pass, gets the news and responds immediately, it should be almost here!"

After thinking about it, Kerry said his opinion: "My lord, Lord Wren Hart of Thorn Vine Pass, you have a very good personal relationship, even if the garrison officer of the other checkpoints can't come to him, he will definitely come! As long as he can bring two complete squadrons to assist us in guarding Huya Pass, it will undoubtedly be much easier!"

Mansha nodded approvingly, and said with emotion: "The lord has already ordered, if those garrison officers do not lead the crowd to come, it is very likely to provoke the lord's dissatisfaction. With the temper of the lord, he will never talk about it...... Let's hope they'll be more attentive!"

While the two were talking, a guard hurriedly reported that the garrison officer of Thorn Vine Pass, Wren Hart, had arrived.

Mansha couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard the news, and after telling Kerry to keep a close eye on the movements of the goblins outside the gate, she immediately walked down the city wall and went to greet Wren Hete who had just arrived.

Led by the guard, Mansha made her way to meet her old friend.

Wren is in his thirties, with a Chinese face, a beard, and a face carved like an axe and a knife, calm and resolute. He was wearing a full suit of silver-white armor, carrying a two-handed sword on his back, and a long blood-red cloak, which kept swaying in the wind and making a hunting sound.

After Mansha saw him from a distance, she hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "Old friend, we meet again!"

Wren seemed a little anxious, walking around in front of his mount. The beads of sweat on his face had been strung together and kept slipping down, and his beautiful beard was also sticking together, a little messy.

It wasn't until he heard Mansha's voice that he came back to his senses, hurriedly handed over the reins of the mount to the guards on the side, walked a few steps, rushed to Mansha, wiped his sweat casually, and asked with a solemn face: "New lord, really...... It's right inside Huyaguan?"

Mansha also hurriedly put away her smile and replied with a serious face: "Old friend, how can I be joking about such a big matter! You and I both understand that if you fake such news, you will go to the gallows!"

"It's good that you know!" Wren breathed a sigh of relief, but then continued to ask with puzzlement: "It stands to reason that Lord Lord should go to the Forgotten Canyon and go straight to Shining Gold Town, which is safer, why did he choose to go to the very dangerous Twilight Forest?"

"How can I know everything about the lord!" Mansha spread her hands, looking a little helpless.

Wren took his taste and patted his head vigorously. He suddenly remembered something, leaned closer again, and asked in a low voice, "Can the identity of the lord be confirmed?"

Speaking of this, Mansha immediately smiled bitterly and replied truthfully: "It stands to reason that after I saw the appointment letter and tokens of the lord, I should be sure of his identity. But I was ...... As soon as his head twitched, he asked him to open the letter of appointment and prove his identity......"

Before Mansha could finish speaking, Wren had already exclaimed, "The God of Light is above, and you are really ...... That's all that makes it a serious offense to him! You're not a little girl anymore, why are you still so impulsive!"

"Don't worry, wait until I'm done!" Mansha sighed: "The lord made an exception to open the appointment letter and proved his identity...... In the end, it was only a slight punishment for me!"

"Whew...... You, he's the future lord, and he wants to target you, a little garrison, and that's not a matter of a few words?In my opinion, you've been in this place for too long, and your head is a little rusty!...... you're in a worse situation in the future" Ryan looked like he hated iron and steel, full of worry.

"Old friend, this lord is very different....... Besides, Lord Lord doesn't care about this matter anymore......" As Mansha spoke, she looked behind Wren with a puzzled expression, and couldn't help but change her words and asked, "My spy should tell you to bring two squadrons of guards to quickly reinforce here!"

Wren sighed lightly, followed the topic, and explained in a low voice: "Alas, Mansha, this is a big deal, how can I easily lead my subordinates out of the checkpoint!

"Could it be...... You're just coming by yourself?" Mansha was suddenly unhappy and pointed in the direction outside the level: "Now, more than a thousand goblins are gathered outside the level, and they may attack the level in a big way at any time. The lord has already ordered that the checkpoint must be guarded no matter what, and the people of Shining Gold Town must not be harassed by monsters anymore. I've already explained these things...... Why don't you trust me?"

Wren hurriedly reassured and explained: "Mansha, don't worry, we have been good friends since childhood, and we have been friends for more than 20 years, and I am still willing to believe you." But in order to minimize the trouble, I ordered the subordinates of the two squadrons to temporarily stop in the hidden place outside the Huya Pass, wait for the follow-up order, and come here at any time!"

"Then what are you waiting for, give the order!" Mansha urged, a little dissatisfied.

"This ...... I want to see the lord first, and after confirming this order thoroughly, I can recruit my subordinates with confidence!" Wren also turned his face and said very seriously: "We are friends, I can accompany you to make mistakes, and I can also accompany you to the gallows, but those subordinates of mine can't die because of this, otherwise I will have no shame to face them after death!"

Mansha thought about it seriously and nodded helplessly.

"Since you are so persistent, I will not persuade you more...... Perhaps, even if it were me, I would make the same choice as you!" Mansha's face softened slightly, but then she reminded seriously: "Wren, there are some things, I should remind you first, this lord has extremely powerful power, and can even directly kill a fourth-order dark archwizard....... Moreover, he also has extraordinary wisdom, which can penetrate almost all hypocrisy and go straight to the truth. In front of him, I advise you to be as respectful and humble as possible, and try not to contradict him. ”

"Mansha, it's the first time in so many years that I've heard you praise someone so highly, which really makes me curious! Don't worry, I will accept your suggestion with an open mind......." Speaking of this, he smiled faintly: "Actually, even if he doesn't have such a strong strength or such extraordinary wisdom, I will still respect him as much as possible....... After all, he's the new lord of Shining Gold Town!"

"Alright then, in order not to delay the rest of the business, I'll take you to meet the lord!" Mansha exhaled lightly, and quickly turned to move forward.

Wren hurried to follow, and as the two walked side by side, he remembered something and took the opportunity to say it again.

"Mansha, my fourth child, is about to be born!" he said with a smug voice.

"Congratulations! After holding the Tiger Tooth Pass and defeating the goblins, I will definitely visit Sister Lucy and offer my most sincere wishes!" Mansha was also overjoyed when she heard the news.

"Hehe, then I'll take the place of Lucy and our unborn child first, thank you for your blessings!" he paused, and then took the opportunity to add: "You know...... I'm reminding you that it's time for you to find a partner!"

Hearing this, Mansha stopped, smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I'm so old...... Maybe it's hopeless in this life!"

"What's hopeless? As long as you can nod your head, Lucy and I will definitely choose the best one for you, and it may not be easy to find a baron or above, but there are still excellent men like knights!" he seemed to be more concerned about this matter, and almost every time we got together, he would take the trouble to say it several times.

Mansa is used to it and has long known how to deal with him.

This time, she changed her way as a polite refusal: "Hehe, although I am old, my vision is not bad, if you want to marry me, at least you must be a viscount or above...... Otherwise, I'd rather be single all the time!"

When Ryan heard this, she was stunned at first, because she was not so resistant to marriage, which was undoubtedly good news.

But at the same time, he was also angry enough: "Mansha, didn't I say you...... Isn't the minimum viscount requirement too high? Don't you know that there are only three barons in our entire Shining Gold Town, and they are all old guys in their fifties and sixties....... Hey, hey, are you listening? Do you want to think about it a little bit more and lower your requirements?"

"That's my minimum standard...... It won't be lowered in this life!" Mansha didn't want to talk any more, and walked all the way, and soon arrived outside Yunlang's door.
