"Kill Lord David!" Hu Bin said such words with a smile.

"What?" Everyone who heard this couldn't help but shout, and David's face suddenly became very ugly, and he subconsciously drew his weapon and stood up.

Seeing Hebrew's incredulous expression, Hu Bin's smile became even brighter: "Since you can't do it, then let me do it myself." ”

A fireball flew towards David in an instant, and the wild wolf and Lord Daier next to him hurriedly dodged to both sides, while David, who had become vigilant, overturned the table and blocked Hu Bin's sudden attack.

The flames shattered the wooden table, and two cold rays of light pierced through the shards towards David. David looked at the two throwing knives in his chest with some surprise, and then quickly fled to the door of the bar.

"Collect some interest first!" Hu Bin's cold voice came from behind David, and David ran faster after hearing it.

"Stop, Reed, what are you doing?" Hebrew drew his weapon and shouted loudly, but he didn't dare to stop Hu Bin, who knows if the elf who now looks like a madman will give him a knife.

"Of course it's a killing!" As soon as Hu Bin's voice fell, the person drifted towards David like a gust of wind.

As David rushed out of the bar, he suddenly felt a chill in the back of his neck, instinctively rolled forward, and when he turned around, he saw a throwing knife stuck in the opposite door, trembling.

"Damn it!" David knew that he couldn't escape the pursuit of the other party, and the other party was obviously good at medium and long-range throwing knives. He simply turned back to face the elf, rather than being slowly killed by the throwing knife. It's better to give it a go.

"Oh, finally stop running!" Hu Bin walked out of the bar with leisurely steps and stood still in front of David. And they were soon surrounded by a crowd of numbered people who wanted to see the excitement.

"You ......" David was about to say something, when he suddenly saw a throwing knife shooting at him. He narrowly tilted his head, dodging the throwing knife, and then stood, slowly looking down at his chest.

A few strands of hair that had been cut by the throwing knife slowly floated down, and finally landed on a gorgeous longsword, the tip of which pierced David's chest. And that position is right in front of the heart.

"Let me greet you, the numbered ones who have fallen in the North!" Hu Bin put his hand on David's shoulder, whispered in his ear, and then pressed his hand. Caused the sword to penetrate deeper into David's chest and through his back.

"They are waiting for you in hell!"

Hu Bin pulled out the holy sword, shook it, and then withdrew it from the mark on the back of his hand, while David widened his glasses and slowly knelt down, and finally stopped breathing with convulsions.

Hu Bin took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood from the flying knife. Then he put it back into the cowhide pouch around his waist. There was a warm smile on his face, but the onlookers felt a chill.

"You owe me an explanation!" Hebrew shouted as he pushed away the tower shield that stood in his way.

"Hebrew, Lord Reed has not been obliterated!" Dale stepped out from behind Hebrew and reminded him softly.

Hu Bin threw a blood-stained handkerchief on David's face, covering his still round eyes, while several nearby soldiers stepped forward and separated two people to carry the body up without saying a word.

"Sir, we have completed the task commanded by Lord Gandalf. Farewell! A squad leader-like guard stepped forward and saluted, then led the group out of the place.

It was a bit cold for a while. Heber looked at Hu Bin, then at Lord Dai'er beside him, and tried to say, "Could it be that David is ......, how is this possible?" ”

After receiving the reward for killing the numbered person of the opposing faction, Hu Bin said with satisfaction: "The facts have proved everything!" Hebrew lords, perhaps now we can talk about alliances. ”

……

The Consulate on the top floor of Baicheng, this is the third time Hu Bin has come to this solemn place, but the purpose of his coming here this time is not to be brought in by others, but to ask for the regent in a dignified manner.

"What a surprise, Reed, why did you come back to me at this time?" The regent asked with some surprise, this elf who had come to Gondor as his son's friend, had become an indispensable flag in his heart after helping him achieve his goal several times, which was why the regent immediately received Hu Bin after hearing that he was visiting alone late at night.

"My lord, I just killed a spy in the city!" Hu Bin knew that this matter could not escape the eyes of the regent, but he still had to inform him.

"Gandalf once mentioned this to me, he is a member of the alliance of lords, if it weren't for the approaching war, I really want to investigate this matter thoroughly, but Reed, the current situation does not allow me to do this, it will cause some lords to misunderstand." The regent waved his hand to indicate that he already knew about it, and revealed some of the follow-up processing to Hu Bin.

"My lord, I was about to talk about this, it was about the Alliance of Lords." Hu Bin hurriedly said after seeing that the regent had the intention of sending off guests.

"Oh? Did they make some kind of basket, and should I really not dare to kill them? The regent's face suddenly became very cold, the orcs could attack at any time, he was already overwhelmed by busy things, and it was already rare to spare time to meet Hu Bin, if Hu Bin said some bad news at this time, the lord alliance might really be destroyed.

"My lord, in fact I have heard many rumors against you from the Union of Lords, saying that you are wantonly withholding their well-deserved rewards and adding a large amount of unreasonable taxes to exploit them." Hu Bin calmly told this, as if he didn't care about the regent's increasingly ugly face.

"It's nonsense, is it true that greed has made them lose all the shame of the nobility!" After listening to Hu Bin's words, the regent slammed the cup on the table to the ground. "Nonsense, don't we offer a reward that fills their mouths? Taxation? They don't pay taxes to White City for a long time, and if it weren't for the imminent attack by the orcs, I would have sent troops to exterminate their despicable moths! The Regent's roar startled even the two guards.

"It's none of your business, let's get out." The regent calmed himself down a bit and dispersed the guards. The two guards glanced at Hu Bin and then saluted and exited the door.

"With all due respect, my lord, there is a big difference between what I have found and what you have said." Hu Bin still said with an unchanged face. And at this time, the guard walked in again.

"What's the matter? Don't you see I'm meeting a guest? The Lord Regent said with some displeasure.

"Your Majesty, Your Excellency Master Gandalf asks to see you!" The guard said immediately.

"Let him in!" The regent sat back in his seat and glanced at Hu Bin opposite, and after seeing that he had no objection, he rubbed his brow and let Gandalf in.

"Oh, I thought someone was here so late, but I didn't expect it to be you. Reed! Gandalf walked into the living room with vigorous steps, and then was somewhat surprised to find that Hu Bin was also inside.

"Gandalf, you've come just in time. Reid seems to have gotten some important news, and maybe you should listen to it too. The regent said with some weariness.

"Oh, hopefully that's good news." Gandalf looked back at Hu Bin.

"Sorry, this might be bad news. In fact, I secretly investigated the situation within the Union of Lords. Found something very interesting. "Hu Bin's words piqued the interest of the regent and Gandalf." The formation of the Union of Lords was the result of the unity of some of the lords who were oppressed by the White City, and I have investigated it deeply, and I know from the soldiers who collected the taxes that they had indeed received orders to collect some strange taxes from those lords. ”

"There is such a thing, I have never given such an order, but if they are not satisfied, they can completely reflect to me, why directly resist Baicheng's order by such drastic means as resisting taxes?" The Regent's anger was aroused a little again. It seems to be remembering some things not long ago.

"The lords of the Lords' Alliance have written to His Majesty the Regent countless times, but they have never heard back. They are still burdened with heavy taxes, and your tax collector even came to the tavern not long ago to certify to them in front of me. ”

"It can't be! I have already ordered all the lords who led troops to support the White City, and the taxes of their territories have been exempted for the duration of the war! "The regent also noticed that something was wrong.

"Reed, is what you're telling the truth?" Gandalf asked suddenly.

"It's true, not only that, but I also learned from the Hebrew lord that the mission rewards of the previously killed lords of Lee and Belikov were not even worth the cost of their march, and their request for an increase in remuneration was rebuked and reprimanded by the White City side, and until now all of them have not been paid." The information Hu Bin received from the Hebrews, although it may have been exaggerated, could not have been unfounded.

The regent was a little silent, he knew that Reed was a pawn he had sent out to deal with the Lords' Alliance, and he was the least likely to speak for those people, but if half of what Reed said before was true, then the problem on the part of White City would be big.

"Why don't you summon the Hebrew and other lords, I also want to see if this group of lords is really as greedy as I heard before." Gandalf duly suggested that in fact, after Hu Bin found out that there was a misunderstanding between the two parties, he immediately reported it to Gandalf, and the old mage cooperated with Hu Bin to perform such a play in front of the regent, so that the Hebrews and his party could solve the problem themselves.

"Come, summon the Hebrew lord to me!" The regent considered it and summoned the Hebrews.

"Then I'll take my leave!" Hu Bin knew that he had fulfilled his responsibilities, and that it was up to the Hebrews to do the next.

"Don't rush to go, Reed, there may be a lot of great shows waiting for us in the future!" Gandalf stopped Hu Bin, who wanted to leave, and Hu Bin, although a little puzzled, patiently sat with Gandalf and waited for the Hebrew to arrive.

Ten minutes later, one of the guards hurried to the consulium and reported to the regent: "Your Majesty, the Hebrew lord has refused your summons. ”

"How is this possible?" Before the regent could react to the news, Hu Bin suddenly exclaimed.

"This is really strange, the Hebrews were still asking me for help just now, and they should be waiting outside the gate on the sixth floor to meet the Lord Regent!" Gandalf suddenly looked at the guard with interest.

The guard looked up blankly and said, "Your Excellency, the messenger did say that the lord refused. ”

"Enough. Bring the Hebrew lords here, this time for yourself. The regent was furious and yelled at the guard. He had already vaguely guessed something. This matter has already related to his prestige, so he has to pay attention to it.

"I'm sorry, Gandalf, but the next thing is Gondor's internal affairs, and I hope you can avoid it." The regent said in a deep voice, and anyone could see that the regent had moved to kill.

"Then we're going to leave, Reed. Let's go! Gandalf stood up and straightened his white robe, then pulled Hu Bin out of the hall.

At the gate of the Consulate, Hu Bin saw Hebrew, Daer, and Wolf who were personally escorted to the Consulate by the guards. Under their gaze, Hu Bin gave a smile that reassured them, and watched them be ushered into the hall.

"Didn't you notice it a long time ago, Gandalf!" Hu Bin asked, following behind Gandalf.

"Ahh There was once a lord named Ben who had reported something to me. I thought it was interesting, so I dug deeper. Gandalf turned his head and said with a sly wink.

"Then why are you still letting me ......" Hu Bin was interrupted by Gandalf with a finger before he could finish speaking.

"Stubborn illness requires cruel medicine, Reed, sometimes sacrifice is inevitable." Gandalf glanced meaningfully at Hu Bin and continued to stride forward, but Hu Bin stood still and savored the words.

……

"Reed, big news, there were a lot of high-ranking Aboriginal people arrested by the regent last night. They were to be publicly executed this morning in the plaza on the first floor. ”

Ta Dun's shouting woke up the sleeping Hu Bin, who had drunk a lot of alcohol since returning to the bar last night. In the end, I don't know when I fell asleep on the table. Gandalf's words last night touched him deeply, he didn't know if Gandalf's sacrifice included him, he thought about it all night and didn't figure it out.

"I didn't expect that after having the physique of the numbered person, I would still dream, it seems that I really drank a lot of alcohol last night." Hu Bin's mind flashed through the dream of last night, and he dreamed of the last blow that Gandalf had given himself in that battle against the Fire Demon. Perhaps Gandalf's sacrifice really included himself, but Gandalf himself was not the same.

In the Aocheng fortress in the distance, the horn of the orcs had already sounded, and the black-pressed half-orc soldiers stood in one phalanx after another in the roar of the commander, and a large number of siege weapons were placed on the positions in the rear, they couldn't wait to capture the unsightly city not far away.

The orcs' movements should have been closely watched by the soldiers, but now, the soldiers in the White City were drawn to another matter.

"Today, I apologize to a group of valiant Gondor warriors who have suffered injustices and grievances that have kept me from staying out of the matter." The Lord Regent stood on a high platform in the middle of the square and spoke in a deep tone.

"The invasion of the Orcs has put our country at great risk, which has brought us together like never before, and has also caused us to ignore our own problems." Beneath the high platform knelt a dozen men, their limbs bound and their mouths gagged with ropes and cloths, and they could only look at the regent with frightened eyes, and their mouths continued to whine.

"Boromir, reveal the identities and crimes of these moths for me." The Lord Regent said after giving a speech and glancing at the people below.

"Yes, Father!" Boromir pulled out a list and then shouted: "Kampamir, status, tax collector, crime, add entries to collect war taxes." Sri Lanka, identity, herald, crime, lying about the decree. ...... "The crimes are all over the place. "All of the above crimes are true, and the charges are ......," Boromir said, interrupted by the regent's outstretched hand.

"One more article, treason is convicted, and the capital punishment is imposed, and we have no time to waste on them." As soon as the Lord Regent's words fell, the criminals became agitated, but they were pressed to the ground by the guards.

"Warriors of Gondor, you are here today for three reasons. First, you are here to surround your hometown and your loved ones. Second, you are here for honor, because your dignity is being trampled on. Third, you are here because you are true warriors! The Lord Regent hissed his last words, and at that moment, one of the criminals below had his head cut off, causing a burst of exclamation from those around him.

"You were farmers, artisans, hunters, and even artists. But today, you are all soldiers. Today, you will die, you will die at the hands of the orcs, you will die in the shadow of the demon lord Sauron. Today, you will be cowardly, and if someone says that he is not afraid, it is a lie. The Regent's voice suddenly became very low, and the prisoner was executed again, but everyone only glanced at it and fell into their own thoughts.

"Everyone dies after all, but some people's deaths are selfless." At this, the regent glanced at the Hebrew group standing beside him, and then continued: "Some people are timid, but this does not prevent them from fighting like warriors. A true warrior is a man who can fight even if he is timid! (To be continued......)
