"The lord of the Twilight Lords is the Earl of Kent, and this man has been at odds with the mountain city of Rykerd before. The military of the Twilight Territory is not comparable to that of the Mountain City, but Kent's territory is just sandwiched between the Ark Harbor and the Mountain City. If the two join forces, it will be very disadvantageous to Fang Zhougang. Count Orban had asked us to help Ark Harbor resolve the Horn Situation, and he was still facing the threat of Daniel, and it was a terrible situation. ”
Between the Bloodthorn Mountains, Alan and Orlando each rode a war horse and walked side by side between the mountain roads. The trees on both sides are towering, and the dark red thorn bushes beside the road will always hook the passing horses, so the horses are tightly wrapped in protective gear on their four hooves, otherwise these high-headed horses will have to be blurred by their four hooves when they walk through the mountains. Yesterday, a group of outcast thieves who had fled from the Twilight Territory to the Bloody Thorn Mountains attacked the camp, and naturally they were touched by a nose of ashes. Today, Alan asked about Twilight Ridge, and Orlando told the truth.
"So, I was just the right time to come." Alan laughed.
Orlando nodded and said, "That's true, the difficulty of Oban at that time was that he did not lack financial resources, nor did he lack troops, but he lacked fierce men who could charge into battle. Your arrival immediately made up for this shortcoming. Especially after you killed Daniel's Duruff, who was the most powerful in combat, your importance became even more obvious. As for the later, Daniel was defeated, and the mountain city was recently cleaned up by you, and the situation of the horns of the Ark Harbor has long been solved. ”
Since the Marquis of Iron Spear has a personal relationship with Julian, he naturally knows what Alan did in the mountain city, and Alan doesn't think it's unusual to be told by Orlando. What's more, Huo Yi himself is hidden as the strongest person in the south, if he doesn't even know about his activities in the mountain city, it would be too much to say.
Alan thought for a moment and said, "Then it's the turn of the Earl of Kent to have a headache, now that Iron Spear Ridge and Ark Harbor are married, the life of the Black Twilight Collar sandwiched between you will not be easy." ”
"I guess we had a series of plans to deal with the Twilight Collar before, and then we ran aground and used them. Later, I heard that the Earl of Kent seemed to be a bit self-defeating, and after losing Rycd as an ally, the Earl of Kent did not want to forge ahead. In the past six months, the tax revenue of the territory has suddenly risen, forcing the people to survive, and a large number of merchants have poured out of the territory, the largest of which has been absorbed by our Iron Spear Territory, and the others have scattered into Ark Harbor and your territory. Orlando said with a smile: "Now the Black Twilight Collar can be described as a miasma, and the local Imperial Inspectorate can't stand it, and has already reported to the Northern Capital." It seems that it won't be long before the Twilight Empire is interfering with it, and it's not surprising that a lord will be changed. ”
The Empire rarely interferes in the affairs of lieges everywhere, let alone changes lieges. The empire is still martial, and it can turn a blind eye to the local lords' competition for territory, but it does not let the lords raise the territorial taxes at will. In the words of the first emperor of the empire: "To make a fortune in the territory?" Okay, go for yourself. As for the soft eggs who only exploit their own people, get out of here! ”
So if the Dusk Lords are in this situation, and the lord ignores the warnings and recommendations of the Local Overseer, then the Empire will interfere.
If the Earl of Kent were to the point of Imperial interference, it would undoubtedly be the biggest joke of a century in the South. Orlando was laughing, too, but he couldn't laugh when he laughed. There was a commotion at the front of the line, followed by a few more roars. Orlando frowned, and stepped forward to check on the horse's belly. Alan gestured to Regers to stay and watch the carriage while he rode away after Orlando.
A violent qi suddenly surged from the front of the team, this momentum was fierce and violent, and there was a bit of burnt smell in the air, obviously the other party's source power was biased towards the fire genus. When Orlando and Allen arrived, they saw seven or eight soldiers lying on the ground, black and smoking, like charred corpses charred by the flames. Orlando snorted, and looked ahead again, where two Gunners were shooting at each other.
The opponent's body was lit up like a mist of fire, and he couldn't see his face for a while. I saw my hands poking out of the firelight and holding two shots respectively. A stream of heat went up the gun, and the spear turned red inch by inch, and the two iron gunmen snorted and let go of their hands and retreated, their palms burning. The man in the firelight laughed, and his voice was old. The two reddish war spears in their hands turned their heads upside down and threw them at the iron guards.
Orlando's eyes lit up, and his hand swiped the blue thunder spear next to the horse, and the spear turned into a blue rainbow and shot away, with a spear on the left side in the middle. As soon as he pressed his horse's head, the man jumped out and struck the spear on his right with his fist, knocking it away. After landing on the ground, he stretched out his hand and copied it, and the invisible force field rolled up Bi Lei and bounced back into his hand. Orlando has a shot in hand, and the gas engine continues to climb and accumulate. As Bi Lei pointed at the firelight, the momentum continued to surge towards the man.
There was a sudden thunder out of thin air on the side of the road, crackling and crackling, and many blood-red vitex bushes were frequently exploded, and wood powder flew in all directions.
Alan didn't jump out of the limelight like Orlando, he honestly rolled over and dismounted. Looking at the Red King hanging from the side of the horse, after thinking about it, he took it down and carried it in his hand. Walking to Orlando's side with the Red King, Alan narrowed his eyes and whispered, "It's a big weather." ”
In the light of the fire was an old man, at least in his sixties. A bare head, but with a red beard. Not only was his beard red, but even his eyebrows were purple. This old man is tall, and although he is old, he does not give people the feeling of old age at all. In particular, he still has a long knife that touches the ground behind his back, and two long and short fires are randomly inserted in his waist. The gun looks like a robber who specializes in robbery in the mountains of this area.
It's just that Allen believes that there is absolutely no fierce man as tough as an old man in this bandit in the Blood Thorn Mountain. This person's aura of flames is vast and powerful, not to mention that there is also a twenty-five or six-level person. No matter where this level is lost, he will not be unknown, not to mention that he dares to intercept this team, showing his prestige that he is not afraid of the iron spear.
Alan looked at Orlando next to him, who smiled helplessly and said, "Old acquaintance." This old guy's name is Gable, and he used to be the leader of one of the largest thieves in Iron Lance Ridge, the 'Fire Demon', and he himself was nicknamed the Fire Demon because his source power was biased towards the fire system. This old fellow was openly provoked by my father when he succeeded him as Lord of the Iron Spear, and then he was surrounded and suppressed by my father, who was light-blooded and strong, with his army, and the fire demon was seriously injured in that encirclement. But the old guy took advantage of the chaos to run, this run is that there is no news for ten years, and I thought that he changed his face and hid to avoid trouble, but I didn't think that when I was just born, this old thing ran back to seek revenge. ”
The old man over there who was covered in flames saw Orlando, squinted his eyes and exclaimed, "Huo Yi's cub, this time without the protection of your old man's spear, I see where you kid can hide." Don't think I don't know, when you set off, Huo Yi was hanging far behind, trying to lure me in. Lao Tzu is not so stupid, just hide and not see your father and son. Now old Huo Yi is probably waiting for you to go back in Iron Gun Ridge, and I wonder what a happy scene it will be if he waits for your corpse to return. ”
Orlando didn't laugh angrily: "You can still laugh at the old guy, you bastard has wanted my life every now and then since I was born, but I still live well in the past twenty years." It's you, because you were still tied with my father back then, and now you still haven't grown at all, I think your days are all living to dogs, right? ”
Alan laughed in his heart, this son of the iron gun didn't know how many catties there were under his hands, but this mouth was poisonous enough and damaged. No, some fire demon over there was already so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him, and he just screamed and killed.
After Orlando finished speaking, he whispered to Allen: "This must be the most tasteless strong man I have ever seen, he didn't dare to challenge his father, he only dared to attack me, and threatened to let me die before my father, so that my father could taste the pain of losing his son." It's a shame to get into trouble with such a mad dog, but this guy is crazy and cunning. He was right, I came to Ark Harbor this time to expect that Gaibo would come to find trouble, and when I set off from the Iron Spear Collar, my father hung behind him and waited for Gaibo to take the bait. I didn't expect him to be fooled, so it's not surprising that he will show me on this return trip. ”
Alan said casually: "In that case, Marquis Huo Yi still hasn't sent you a few expert guards, or is it that your Grand Duke of Orlando has the ability to take down this fire demon?" ”
Orlando grinned and said, "The old man wanted to do this, but I said no. I don't need to say the reason, I know that I am escorted by Lord Allen, so I don't need any expert guards to follow me and get in the way. ”
Alan rolled his eyes directly, thinking that the scoundrel next to him had reached a certain level.
Orlando seemed to have Allen's talisman on his side, and shouted confidently: "Gable, just because you still want to intercept the road?" You don't have that qualifications yet, don't think that if my father is not there, no one will be able to stop you. Why don't you make a bet with me and see who's going to die here today? ”
The old man finally replied, but another pleasant voice sounded: "Of course a Gable does not have this qualification, but with my words, I'm afraid it's barely enough, right?" Boy Orlando wants to bet? Yes, I'm afraid you can't afford to pay that gamble. ”
The old man, known as the fire demon, snorted and turned sideways. I saw a figure walking behind him, a man in a black coat. Not to mention his handsome appearance, as soon as he appeared, a vague smell of blood floated on the mountain road, and the murderous intent was permeated.
Orlando narrowed his eyes and said with a wry smile: "Those who should have come have come, and those who shouldn't have come have come, and I won't believe that these two people just collided together." ”
Alan looked at the man who appeared behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Who is this, your enemy?" ”
Orlando looked at Alan in surprise and said, "You don't even know who he is?" Lord Allen, you slaughtered someone's son, I thought my father had sent him back, but I didn't expect him to appear here. ”
Speaking of which, Alan knew who the other party was after realizing it.
Bloody Earl Eric!
A man who shouldn't have come out here.
