"This is the Marquis de Wren, this is my father-in-law!?"

Now that he has killed Stannis, he doesn't believe that the beggar-like old man in front of him is the overlord of the famous guardian of the East, leading dozens of families.

But Lina nodded bitterly and said that Stannis was not mistaken, this was Marquis Frode.

Still, Stannis circled around the old man who looked like he was sitting on the ground with Parkinson's paralysis, and there was nothing other than his face that could connect him to the man who had been a guest at the banquet in high spirits half a year ago.

"That'...... Why the hell is this happening?"

Stannis is completely confused, even if he is attacked by the Kuroshio, but as the guardian and marquis of the Eastern Realm, he will not fall to such a point, not only has he become like this, but even there is only one servant left by his side, where has all his army gone?

Lina's eyes glistened with tears again, and she said with a desperate cry: "Your Majesty, don't you know yet?"

"What do you know?" said Stannis, confused.

"No, everything in the Flod family is gone! Baili City has been completely destroyed, and everyone has not been killed! Your Excellency and I are the only ones who can escape!" Lina roared as if she had lost her mind, her eyes full of fear, and Stannis could feel the impact of all her knowledge of Lina when the disaster broke out.

He took the woman who was about to go crazy into his arms and kept comforting, "It's okay, everything is fine with me." ”

Under the dual influence of his gentle voice and solid chest, Lina, who was frightened like a rabbit, finally quieted down a little, she wiped away her tears, and intermittently told everything that had happened in Baili City three days ago.

On the night of the disaster, Lina clearly remembered that there was nothing unusual before that night, because it was the midsummer festival in the middle of the year, so the civilians of the surrounding villages and towns gathered in the city early to prepare for the celebration. Due to the fact that it was an eventful time and so many people were crowded in the city, the Marquis of Froude also deliberately transferred the surrounding troops back to maintain order. But what happened next caught everyone off guard, first a sudden mega-earthquake tore the city apart and buried countless people alive in the rubble, and then something even more terrible happened, in those gaping cracks in the earth, black armies poured out like pus from wounds, and killed all the living people they met. Because of the earthquake, the scattered army in the city could not organize effective resistance at all, and could only wait to be killed, and Baili City instantly turned into a hell on earth, and the blood of the slaughtered did not even reach people's knees.

When the disaster suddenly broke out, the Froude family, who were preparing for the celebration in the mansion, immediately became the center of this disaster vortex, although under the prestige of the Marquis of Flode, the defenders of the mansion organized to resist, but this was only an extra hour, as the inside of the mansion also cracked and the black tide emerged from the inside, the mansion fortress was immediately broken, and the people here were slaughtered as much as outside, whether it was guests, servants or soldiers, the possessed monsters were killed every time. A small group of loyal soldiers gathered to protect Flot and the rest of the survivors and rushed out of the city, but in the end only the Marquis and Lina escaped, and they were in the current state of being penniless.

After listening to Lina explain the ins and outs of everything, Stannis now has only one biggest doubt, "Annie, where has my little Annie gone!"

Indeed, if only this Froud and Lina escaped from Baili City, it means that his fiancée Anister did not escape from that slaughterhouse!

Sure enough, as soon as she heard the name, Lina couldn't hide her inner emotions and cried again.

"I'm sorry I didn't protect Miss Anne, we were scattered when we escaped, and the last time someone saw her, only Damilian protected her!"

Stannis hurriedly gave her a hug to comfort her, this is indeed not Lina's fault, in that case, even if she wants to sacrifice for others, she can't do it, but Annie is still in Baili City, death is already the most merciful end for her, and the horrific torture and humiliation that Zoe of the Igo family suffered before her death is very likely to also befell her fiancée!

The anxious Stannis must not let such a tragedy happen again, even if Anne once tried to kill him secretly, but he felt that there must be some misunderstanding, in short, he must save her!

But the most important thing now is to settle the Marquis of Flode, he said to Lina with a pleasant face, "Since I am here, you don't have to worry about Anne's safety, I promise you that I will definitely rescue her, now the important thing is to settle the Marquis first, I will take you out of here, the most important thing now is to find a place to recuperate after so many things the Marquis has been through." ”

Lina wiped the tears from her face, she knew that it was useless to be anxious now, she helped Stannis to help the old man who had lost everything up, the originally strong Eastern Guardian seemed to have become gorgeous overnight and at the same time described as withered, Stannis held him in his arms and even felt that he was not much heavier than a skeleton.

And Flot also seems to close his heart, unresponsive to everything that happens in the outside world, he just keeps repeating the phrase, "Daughter, daughter, give my daughter back to me......"

When Stannis walked out of the abandoned house with the old man in his arms, Robert, who had been left behind, finally led the horse to arrive, and he was obviously surprised to see that the Marquis of Frode, who was holding in his hand in the hands of the Mighty East, was obviously surprised and speechless, but he didn't ask more and just silently took the old man and placed him on the horse, and Stannis also helped Lina to the horse and took it away, when they passed the town square again, they found that it had become orderly, and under the maintenance of the former ruffians, those refugees were honestly following the order to fetch water, Stannis was very satisfied, so that he did not have to divide his forces to take care of this place。

Soon, after leaving the crowded refugee town, Stannis mounted and led everyone back to the pass, where a large army had already gathered, and the troops originally used to attack the royal city of Garcia had arrived, but now the people were panicked, and everyone did not know what was really happening.

Stannis returned here without much explanation, and hurriedly asked Cortana to settle the marquis with a maid, and he didn't even rest and directly convened a meeting of all the lords with names and surnames, now not only to prevent this disaster, but he must not lose Anne again!
