Late at night.

Blackwood Town, Mayor's Garden.

Uncle Tim, covered in blood, silently tended to his wounds. On the other side, Chen Yin was interrogating the mayor:

"Do you know where they went, Lord?"

"I heard that I went to fight the gray orcs, somewhere on the edge of the orc plateau." The arrow on the town's thigh had been pulled out, and he answered Chen Yin's question very happily. Although I don't know if what he said is true or not, Chen Yin also has his own judgment.

"Oh? Are you sure? Don't insult my IQ. The location of Blackwood Town itself is on the edge of the Orc Plateau, so if the Lords really want to take on the Grey Orcs, why not choose to be here? After all, there are still many townspeople here who can do logistical work, and there are ready-made high walls, and if you dig a trench with a high wall, wouldn't it be better than a field with nothing? If it goes any further, the entire farmland will be burned. Hold on like this for a while, and when the supply of the gray orcs ......"

Chen Yin held an iron-tipped arrow in the position of holding chopsticks, and the tip of the arrow slid back and forth on the mayor's neck and chest, like a picky eater.

"I'm ......" Mayor seemed to have some rebuttal, but he was too frightened by Chen Yin to speak.

"Say whatever you want, I'm not an unreasonable person."

"Yes...... That's right, the gray orcs don't need supplies...... And unless it's a stone fortified city like the national capital, it's hard to stop the orcs from attacking the city......"

"Oh?" Chen Yin was stunned for a moment, "The gray orcs don't need supplies?" How so? ”

"The supply of the gray orcs mainly depends on raiding, and when they can't loot, they use the milk of the mdo beast instead." Uncle Tim chimed in.

"Looting? Didn't your lord take away all your grain? How many days will you be able to sustain with the little food and milk you have left? ”

“…… We, all of us, are food ......," the mayor feared.

After hearing this, Chen Yin remembered that he seemed to have heard of the gray orcs eating people.

“…… Since the beginning of the Third Millennium War, the Grey Orcs have found a way to deal with the Fortified Clear. They began to supplement the consumption of the army with our civilians, prisoners as food. Uncle Tim explained to Chen Yin in a timely manner.

At first, Chen Yin unconsciously characterized the war between humans and gray orcs as similar to the war between nomads and farming peoples. Thought that the gray orcs were only relying on raiding to supplement their lack of output. What he didn't expect, however, was that the war had grown to such an extent in this world!

Feed on the opposing side's civilians and captives......

On the other hand, it is believed that there will never be any man-eating beasts left as captives on the human side.

This is no longer a conflict, but an all-out war of life and death.

"Why didn't the lord organize your evacuation!?" Chen Yin grabbed the town mayor's collar, "Knowing that the gray orcs will use civilians as food, why don't you organize an evacuation in advance while the orcs haven't arrived yet?" Why? How many people will die here once the orcs call? ”

"I don't know...... I don't really know ......."

Chen Yin was silent.

Just when there was silence here, Aunt Ji Ya poked her head out of the dungeon and looked around as if there was no one around, and then cautiously walked towards Chen Yin and them.

"Gianna isn't in the dungeon, is she?" Chen Yin's voice sounded in the darkness.

"Yes, I've searched all my cells and I haven't seen her." Aunt Jiya replied.

Chen Yin thought for a while and asked the mayor on the ground: "I'll ask you two questions at the end, and if you answer them all, I'll let you go." ”

"You ask, you ask, I'll tell you everything I know!"

"Do you know where Gianna is?"

"She ......," the mayor recalled, "I remember the last time I saw her, it was the lord's guards who took her away, and then I don't know where she went." ”

"That's not an answer." Chen Yin played with the arrows in his hand.

"Wait! Let me think again...... Ah, I thought! The lord took a van with him when he left, but the van was never opened, and it was unknown who was inside...... I guess Gianna should be in the car. ”

"Hmm." Chen Yin nodded.

That's right.

Since Lancelot had guessed that he would come to save people, he would definitely not put her here and wait for Chen Yin to save her, and it would be more in line with his habit to take her away.

"One last question. Lancelot...... Why go with the lord? ”

This is the question that Chen Yin has been buried in his heart since he heard the news that Lancelot is still traveling with Rod. Lord Rhodes' main focus now must be on resisting the Grey Orcs, and Lancelot naturally still wants to hunt down the witch. It stands to reason that these two people should go their separate ways......

Could it be?

"Witch! It's because of the witch! I know that. The mayor's mouth was almost to the root of his ears, and after answering this question, his life was saved, and he couldn't wait to answer, "I heard that the witch appeared on the edge of the orc plateau, and clashed with a small group of gray orcs, and then went somewhere along the border between the orc plateau and the grassland. ”

This news should be true, corroborating with the information received from the bloody hand before. The witch went to the same direction as the fallen lord, and it was understandable that Lancelot followed him.

"Let's go."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you......" The mayor dragged a stump of his leg and fled.

After watching the mayor run away, Chen Yin suddenly asked, "Aunt Jiya, what did you say about the poisonous rose?" ”

As he spoke, he told Ji Ya about the abnormality on the poisonous rose before. Of course, when it comes to the true visual effect, Chen Yin did not say anything.

She ...... It seems that the sea of souls is broken. Aunt Ji Ya sighed, "She doesn't know where she got the method of squeezing the soul sea to quickly restore the soul crystal, and the strength of the soul sea has a limit, and it will naturally shatter under excessive pressing." ”

Saying that, Aunt Ji Ya looked at Chen Yin with some curiosity.

It's just a small 1-star ring holder, how did he force a professional who is 3 levels higher than him to shatter the soul sea? Although the rank is not equivalent to strength, it is directly proportional to the recovery speed of the soul crystal. The higher the level of the soul sea, the more soul crystals it contains, and the faster the recovery speed will naturally be.

And the result like this can only mean one thing, that is, Chen Yin's soul sea is much higher than that of the poisonous rose!

Tier 6 Soul Sea? Rank 7 Soul Sea?

Still is......

Higher?

……

Ten minutes later, Tim Tree held a torch.

The firelight illuminated a clearing.

In the middle of the clearing, Chen Yin filled the pit with the last handful of loess compact, and then inserted a wooden board removed from the table in front of the pit, on which a few lines of Chinese characters were engraved:

Tomb of the Loyal Dog

Lord Chen Yinliu

Clapped his hands and stood up and looked at the two uncles and aunts.

"Let's go, pick up little Susan."
