The message from the watchbird was not very clear, and Green could only know that the number of people in this group was between ten and twenty, and there were a few beasts, which were relatively large.

With this information, Green can easily tell that these people are not refugees.

But whether it was a caravan, a nobleman, or something else, Green had no way to tell, and at this point, Green called Hansen over.

"Lord Duke, do you have anything to do with me?"

Green looked to the north and said, "To the north of Orleans City, a team has appeared, you go and investigate." ”

Hansen was surprised, not by the sudden appearance of the team, but by the fact that Green was able to gain insight into the situation outside while staying at the Duke's Castle.

To the north of Orleans, it's not at all close to the Duke's Castle.

However, Hansen thought about the demolition of the old Grimm Castle and the construction of the new Grimm Castle, and Hansen felt that this was reasonable.

Being able to build such a huge castle in such a short period of time, since this is the case, it is understandable to be aware of the situation outside.

"Yes, Lord Duke. ”

Hansen made a brief preparation, and then left the Duke's Castle.

At present, there is only one exit from the Duke's Castle, which is the Green Boulevard, and the Green Boulevard connects to the Orleans district in addition to the Duke's Castle, so if Hansen wants to go out, he must first pass through the Green Boulevard, and then through the Orleans district.

After that, it's time to come to the central square.

After leaving the central square, Hansen headed north.

Hansen has two speculations about the team Green is talking about, on the one hand, the caravan and on the other hand, the refugees, after all, in this climate, only these two kinds of people can appear.

The latter is more likely than the former, because even a greedy merchant doesn't want to rush in this season.

Hansen pondered in his heart, if it was really refugees, what should he do, should he drive them away, or bring them into Orleans?

After thinking about it for a while, Hansen felt that the latter might be more suitable.

The previous batch of refugees were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and their value was almost equal to zero, but it was such a group of refugees, and Green still did not drive them out of Orleans.

Although Greene asked the refugees to sign a contract, and the terms of the contract seemed somewhat less sympathetic, it was a very compassionate move in itself to be able to accept these refugees under such conditions.

Green's choice allowed those refugees to live.

Therefore, Hansen felt that it should be more appropriate to choose the latter than the former.

However, this is all based on the fact that the team that is approaching Orleans is indeed refugees, and if these people are not refugees, Hansen does not have to think about it so much.

Hansen retracted his thoughts and began to investigate carefully.

It wasn't long before Hansen found some traces.

Hansen is a knight, a full-fledged knight, and a leader among full-fledged knights, and has performed a lot of tracking and anti-tracking missions, exploratory missions, which are not difficult for Hansen.

Hansen followed the trail.

Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared in front of Hansen.

Before Hansen could react, the next moment, another figure appeared behind Hansen, and at the same time, two beasts similar to wolves blocked Hansen's left and right.

"Orcs?"

Hansen recognized these men at a glance.

As a knight of Andrew's Kingdom, Hansen knows the most about alien races is half-orcs, this race that came out of nowhere, once it appeared, it occupied a corner of the continent.

When the fish people were driven out of the continent and could only hide in the deep sea, the orcs took on the identity of the most evil race.

For humans, half-orcs are the number one enemy.

Compared to elves, dwarves, and goblins, although those races also have some shortcomings to a greater or lesser extent, elves are too arrogant, dwarves are too hot, goblins are too cunning, and the relationship with humans is not so harmonious.

But the orcs showed brutality.

Orcs are not only enemies of humans, but also dwarves, goblins, and elves.

It's just that similar to the fish-men, the half-orcs live in a harsh environment, but in the north of the continent, the climate is cold, the land is barren, and the half-orcs have not been attacked by other races.

But under the resistance of other races, the orcs never got out of the barren land.

But orcs also want to survive, so robbing their neighbors has become a thing that orcs must do, whether they are elves, dwarves, goblins, or humans.

The kingdom of Andrei is close to the Orc Empire, and almost every year the Orcs come to raid it.

Hansen had been in contact with orcs before, and had fought a few times.

The impression left by the orcs on Hansen was that they were a group of brutal reckless men with little intelligence, but they were very strong and could hardly be fatally wounded by ordinary weapons.

Hansen had previously faced an orc, the squad leader among the orcs, and in terms of strength, the orc squad leader completely crushed Hansen, but the final victory was won by Hansen.

Hansen used a few stratagems.

But this time the half-orcs seem to be a little different, these half-orcs deliberately leave traces and set traps, and their IQ seems to be much higher than that of ordinary half-orcs.

But more than that, Hansen blames himself for his carelessness and carelessness.

In the past, even if he found a trace, Hansen would not rush to catch up, but would observe the surrounding situation in advance, but this time, Hansen did not do that.

The main thing is that Hansen feels that there should be no danger in the vicinity of Orleans.

And, Green's strength has made Hansen's vigilance lower - Hansen's job is to protect Green, but Green doesn't need Hansen's protection.

In addition, the traps made by these half-orcs are indeed very good, and they don't seem to be made by half-orcs at all.

Hansen tried to resist.

But the next moment, two wolf-shaped beasts immediately entangled, and at the same time, two half-orcs also flanked each other, and Hansen only had time to resist before he was completely suppressed.

The orc fetched a rope and tied Hansen firmly.

"Take him to the captain. ”

An orc led Hansen to a hidden place, and Hansen looked for a chance to escape, but unfortunately, the wolf-like beast next to him kept staring at Hansen, not giving Hansen the slightest chance.

Hansen's heart sank to the bottom.

Half-orcs are a very brutal race, in terms of treating captives, they are different from other races, other races, may collect a certain ransom, release the captives, but half-orcs, but half-orcs, but only kill the captives.

This meant that Hansen fell into the hands of the orcs, and there was almost no chance of survival.

Hansen regretted it.
