The chaotic crowd limited the pursuit of Avery and the others.

By the time dozens of Muni City Guard knights arrived, the remaining four thugs had already disappeared into the intricate alleys of the city.

On the South Gate Street, there were only a few charred carriages, scattered flour, corpses, shocking pools of blood, shoes and other miscellaneous items lost in the chaos, telling the fierceness of the battle just now.

The medical officers who arrived with the team quickly threw themselves into the work of treating wounded civilians and soldiers. The wounded were carried under the eaves of the street and discharged for several tens of meters. Cries of pain, moans, and weeping.

Groups of Muni City Guard soldiers who arrived one after another blocked the entire street with murderous violence, and the knights of the brigade were sprinkled into the city like beans to launch a search. The four gates were ordered to be under martial law at that time, and all entry and exit were strictly checked, and a full five times as many guards were dispatched.

For the Principality of Loulian, this is definitely a provocation and insult of an extremely bad nature.

During this period of time, various forces gathered in Lulian, and the undercurrent was already turbulent. It was only because of the jealousy of the Grand Duke Adolf that it was somewhat restrained.

If this matter is not investigated and allowed to go unpunished, then it is difficult to guarantee that some people will think that Lulian is weak and can be bullied. At that time, Lulian has made countless sacrifices, and the peace and tranquility that he has just gained will be destroyed again.

This is something that every Lulian does not want to see.

At this moment, on South Gate Street, groups of heavily armed soldiers formed two rows of human walls to separate the crowd. In the central clearing, the bodies of several attackers were placed. Karn, the personal guard of Fano and Archduke Adolf, who was present at the scene, was listening to Avery and Todd's reports with a stern expression.

"So, the wagon is loaded. Just food?" Karn, with his gray beard, said with a frown, as he gazed at the charred wagons and the goods of flour, smoked fish, and cured meats on the ground that were messed up with dirt, footprints, and blood, "How much is it worth?"

"Food is scarce right now. These goods were bought from the southern port of Gaolong, and if you count the cost of the journey and the cost of hiring mercenaries, it costs about 50,000 gold lulangs. A clerk in charge of statistics replied.

"But that's not the point," Fano said to Karn, "the point is that the grain is dwarf. ”

"Oh?" Karn's gaze, as if he understood something as he swept over the dwarves who were being questioned. He nodded with a calm face.

"According to Todd, the convoy was attacked on the road. And the attackers were military men posing as bandits. Fano sneered, "It seems that these guests of ours are preparing to drive the dwarves out of the road and force them to comply." ”

"Tens of thousands of gold and lang of food, I'm afraid it's not enough to kill a dwarf," Karn said slowly, looking at Fano.

"This is the report we have received in recent days. This is not the only case like this. Merely. It was the first time that he dared to openly do something in Muni City. Fano handed Karn a parchment roll.

Karn unfolded it, not only angry: "These bastards are simply lawless!"

"This kind of thing," Fano sighed, "if it were normal, we would have just turned our faces." But. Now that the demons are invading, from the standpoint of human beings, even the Grand Duke is also a rat taboo. After all, when the demons come and the blood flows, no one will care about these things. ”

Karn was silent. Turning his head to look at the few dwarves not far away who were dejected to respond to the clerk's questioning, he said, "I will report this matter to the Grand Duke." I don't care what these people want to do, but they have violated our bottom line by openly killing people in the city of Muni. ”

He snorted coldly: "It's time to sober them up." Don't think that in Lulian, they can do whatever they want!"

"Of course!" Fano also looked at the captured magician and the seriously injured knight of glory coldly, "Since they dare to provoke Lulian's legal order, they must be mentally prepared to pay the price. If I don't give them some power, they will still think that my Muni City Guard is just a decoration!"

"That's it," Karn nodded, turning his head to look at Todd, and smiled approvingly, "Good job at Todd Dragon. It seems that the fjord battle has also been experienced. ”

"I just did my part," Todd looked ashamed, "and besides, when I arrived in Muni City, I had people destroy the convoy, and the battle just now didn't make any difference." It's all up to Mistress Avery and Mr. Leo ......"

"Leo. Karn and Fano chewed on the name and turned their gaze to the young mercenary not far away.

"Is he really just a knight of justice?" Karn asked, confused.

"There is absolutely nothing wrong with the four battle rings," Avery began, "at the level of the pinnacle of the fair five-star." However, the real combat effectiveness can only be described as unfathomable. Ordinary knights of glory are no match for him!"

"Oh?" Karn and Fano looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise.

According to Guò Avery and Todd's previous report, they learned that if this attack had not been for this young man, I am afraid that the gang would have escaped long ago.

Of the twelve murderers, he killed five, seriously wounded a knight of glory, and captured a magician alive. It can be said that this gang of murderers was completely planted in his hands alone.

What is surprising is that in terms of the level of fighting spirit, he is just a fair knight.

Killing people by leapfrogging, it's not like you've never seen it. But like this Leo, it is really rare to almost crush the Glory Knight with four more battle rings.

This is enough to show that he is far superior to ordinary fair knights in terms of combat skills, body footwork and combat experience. Even more than Cheng dù, it is enough to ignore the gap in vindictiveness.

"If I'm not mistaken, this Mr. Leo is probably also a genius kid from a wealthy family," Fano sighed, "Since the invasion of the demons, the younger generation of strong men has emerged one after another, which is really a blessing for me. We don't necessarily lose this battle. ”

Speaking of demons, everyone was silent for a while.

Todd asked, "Sir, the demon army that went south is now."

"Anxia County in the central province of Cannotti of the Pompeii Empire has been conquered," Karn said, "The defenders were about to collapse at the first touch, and they almost couldn't wait to let go of the demons' passage south. ”

Fano nodded, confirming Karn's statement, and said, "Your Majesty has ordered the transfer of troops to the north, once the demon clan crosses the border of Saint Solan, they will be attacked head-on. The southern part of the continent is humanity's last line of defense. In any case, this demon army can't be allowed to drive straight in. ”

"Hmph!" Avery couldn't help but snort, "Unfortunately, there are always some people who don't understand this truth. Seeing that my Solan Empire is far away, I always feel that they have suffered a loss, and we have taken advantage of it, and we can't wait to bring all the demons over. When the Philip Empire invaded, who stood by and even planned to take advantage of the fire to rob?"

"There's no point in saying this now," Karn shook his head, "The Demon Race is the mortal enemy of all human beings, and His Majesty also takes the overall situation into account, hoping to unite the three empires and fight the enemy together." This war is related to the life and death of mankind, and if we continue to fight among themselves, I am afraid that it will not be far from extinction. ”

After speaking, Karn shook his horse's head: "Alright, I'll go back and report to the Grand Duke first." The identities of these people, you carefully investigate and find out, no matter who they are, they want them to give us an explanation for Lulian. Hmph, in this land, it's not their turn to be so presumptuous!"

He looked at a few dwarves, thought for a moment, and said, "General Fano, this convoy was attacked in Muni City after all. I build yì, and we will compensate for the loss. Their situation is difficult, and the Grand Duke actually can't bear it. We can't help anything else, so we can only make up for it in this way. ”

Fano nodded, "I understand." ”

Karn rode away, and Fano waved his hand to close the group. Groups of soldiers lined up in order, carrying prisoners, marched to the barracks at the south gate.

Avery and Todd walked next to Roy in unison.

"Officially," Avery smiled and bowed to Roy, "My name is Avery and the deputy head of the Knights of the Mooney City Guard. ”

"I have long admired your great name, General Avery and it is my honor to know you. Roy smiled back, "Leo. ”

"What a long time to admire the name," Avery sighed with a wry smile, waved his hand, and laughed at himself, "If it wasn't for your help just now, I, the newly appointed deputy head of the regiment, would have lost my face." was scattered on his own territory, and so many of his subordinates were killed and wounded, and he couldn't even catch a single person. ”

"Who are these people?" Roy said curiously, "Dare to be so arrogant in Muni City!"

Avery smiled wryly and shook his head.

"And," Roy asked, curiously, "why did they attack a convoy carrying grain, which is so scarce now, what good is it for them to burn it?" ”

I don't know if it's because I'm grateful to Roy for his help or something else, but Avery feels very affectionate about this young mercenary. Hearing the question, he looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "Leo, I'm afraid you're coming to Muni City for the first time, right?"

"yes. Roy nodded, adding in his heart, "It's the first time in the last two months." ”

"It wouldn't be surprising if you had been here," Avery sighed, "do you know why these dwarves have traveled thousands of miles south to buy food?"

Roy shook his head. Although he had a vague guess in his mind, and had learned a little detail from the dwarves, he needed Avery to confirm it.

"Because in the city of Muni, no one will sell them grain. Avery said, "It's not just dwarves. And the barbarians, the elves, the dwarfs, these alien races, all of them. ”

"Why?" Roy looked surprised...... (To be continued......)
