He half-knelt down excitedly, because it was so fast, that his knee even made a muffled sound on the carpeted floor, but he didn't feel the pain, because his attention was all on his ears, tasting the pleasure of the cake. Then he read out the lines that he had already recited a thousand times in his mind, and he felt his lips move and heard the words from it.

"I, Carter, hereby swear allegiance to Lord O-Anne Svanti, and swear to follow me to the death, and never leave my side!"

Then, the Duke completed the canonization ceremony for him and said a few words of encouragement, but this made Carter, who was gradually relieving himself, feel that the Duke was a little anxious today.

——...... Let's be in the midst of today's war......

So Carter couldn't help but cautiously ask his doubts, and then he learned a news that shocked him even more, which even disrupted his plans!

Damn it!

The inner city gate is closed, so what if the woman doesn't come in, or dies outside, do I want to say it now? The Duke is in such a hurry to settle the bill with me, obviously he is in a hurry now, he wants to hear some good news from me, what should I say? Carter responded haphazardly, and in his heart he hurried to rearrange his messy thoughts.

However, the Duke had lost his patience with his several casual and perfunctory remarks, and he asked Carter solemnly, "Then Baron Carter, what good news did you bring this time?"

He was going to reveal half of the story that was not fully made up to the other party first, but when he met those sharp eyes, Carter immediately changed his attention, and he felt that he could not die yet.

Touching a handful of sweat without a trace, Carter replied with his head down, "It's Woodland Rose, the woman named Nissa, I ...... I found her and made a pact with her. ”

After speaking, Carter hurriedly raised his head slightly, secretly observing the Duke's expression, and at this time, he could only say truthfully, he really didn't know that the werewolves would rush into the outer city, and the soldiers completely sealed the inner city gate. But even so, he believed that what he said was still valuable, only about part of the woman.

"Oh?" said the Duke, who was interested, and it seemed that no man was exempt from vulgarity to women, especially beautiful women, and especially women who were so miraculous, whether you were in a high position or as low as a dog, "what kind of agreement is it?"

The Duke didn't seem to care about the process, only the outcome, which was extremely detrimental to Carter, because the result now was that he didn't even know if the woman was dead. In this case, Carter didn't plan to talk about anything else, but first put the problem in front of him, if the Duke was in a good mood, maybe he just felt a little disappointed, and he would make up another story in exchange for the other party's help. Otherwise, if it's too late, it can only be that the higher the tone rises, the worse it falls.

Thinking of this, Carter subtracted the part of Al, and then arranged a little more to fill the vacancy, and talked to the Duke for a while, and then showed an extremely bitter smile at the other party, "Before I came to see you, I actually had a detailed plan, but these are in the past." ”

"Why?"

"As you said, the inner gates are closed, and I think there's a good chance she'll be locked out, maybe even dead. Carter sighed.

He had seen with his own eyes how the werewolves destroyed the camp of the Blackfish River, and if according to the information that the Duke had just told him, so many people were blocking the door, not to mention the werewolves, even those ignorant fools, and that woman was a great threat. He believed that as long as he saw her, no man could resist the demon in his heart.

Sure enough, after listening to Carter's speculation, the Duke was a little disappointed, but the Duke's words then made his heart rekindle.

"That woman will be fine, I have heard that she entered the valley when she was very young, and then rarely returned to town. The Duke poured an extra glass of wine as he spoke, and slowly walked towards Carter with a glass cup.

"In a place like the valley, there are not only fierce beasts, but also many gold diggers, and almost all the time full of danger, how can a person who can live well in such a place die so easily? If she is really trapped in the outer city, then I believe that even if those civilians die, she will not necessarily die. ”

Taking the glass of wine, which was full of gold from the inside out, Carter made a look of trepidation, in his opinion, wine is wine, and a glass is a cup, and aristocrats always like to complicate all simple things, of course, they want to be a simple aristocrat.

"Are you saying that if the people in the outer city don't die, she won't die?"

"Yes, whether it's inference or intuition, I think so. Would you believe that the stars in the sky fell?" the Duke toasted to Carter.

Carter carefully leaned over his cup, touched it lightly, resisted the urge to drink it all, took a sip like the other party, and replied tentatively, "Stars are always stars, always shining in the starry sky?"

"No, she's only going to fall for people like us. ”

The Duke seemed to smile, looked at Carter with a look of incomprehension, and continued, "I just received the news that the army gathered at the inner city gate has rushed towards the three outer city gates, I still know a little about the werewolves, they ran out of the woodland and rushed all the way to Luolong City, exhausted they are definitely not the opponent of the knights, I believe that soon, the news that the three entrances and exits have been controlled will come back." ”

Carter's number of troops at the inner city gate is clear, no matter how elite they are, no matter how lucky they are, their number is too small, and judging by what they know, it is not so easy for the feudal nobles in the hinterland to gather troops to catch up, and if there is no manpower, the fruits of victory will soon fall to the ground and rot.

"But—" He didn't understand why O-Anne looked like he was in control, and he wanted to ask, but was interrupted by the other man.

"You want to say I don't have manpower, do you, young man?"

The duke's words made Carter stunned, isn't this nonsense, if you have a trick, you can say it, what kind of awesome thing to pretend, but he can only nod and satisfy the other party's sense of achievement.

"Your agreement is in two days, isn't it?" After receiving Carter's reconfirmation, the Duke nodded and continued, "After controlling the outer city gate, it will be cleared, and the personnel for the settlement will come from those gold-swallowing beasts. ”

"Swallowing gold...... It's those mercenaries, right?"

"Well, we can't see the enemy as an invincible demon, but we can't think too highly of ourselves, after taking the city gate, let the mercenaries do the task of clearing it, use ......"
