"It seems that this matter is non-negotiable. The dove put Zero down and reached out to touch his bloodied left shoulder. He passed by Lin Qiu without squinting, and he didn't seem to have the intention of drawing his sword: "Since you have made the corresponding enlightenment, take her away." ”

"What?" Lin Qiu didn't react a little.

He had thought that a fight was inevitable, and he was even prepared when the dove approached, drawing his sword at the slightest movement. However, it turned out that the other party was just passing by a few of them very usually, and the dove beckoned to his subordinates and said, "Let's go." ”

His reaction was naturally met with opposition from his subordinates:

"But Lord Dove, His Majesty's order is to bring Zero back!"

"And these people ......"

"Leave the order alone. The dove raised his hand and said, "Even if you are a police uncle, there will be a time to get off work." Little brother over there, you may not know what kind of big burden you have picked up, and now it seems that even if I persuade you to leave the east, you will not listen, I can only remind you that the next time we meet, your opponent will not be the only one. ”

The dove's subordinates glared at Lin Qiu in disdain, and then quickly followed the dove.

It wasn't until the dove and his men left that Angel whispered, "I remember that this road leads to the woods outside the east gate of the Iron City, let's take her away." ”

With Ophelia's help, Zero changed her clothes and said, "I'm going back to Morning Dew Valley." ”

She didn't ask or question, and her tone seemed to state a given fact. Dove's words make her heart uneasy, and the jailer will soon find out that she has been rescued, and as Dove says, the villagers of Morning Dew Valley will be the primary suspicion of Prince Dima, and his policy has always been to kill a thousand by mistake rather than spare one. Regardless of whether the dove informs Prince Dima of this, the villagers of Morning Dew Valley are bound to be destroyed.

That's why she just gnawed on the dove's shoulder, trying to express her uneasiness in this way.

Not only did they have to rush back to the village, but also before the soldiers of the royal capital set foot in the Valley of Morning Dew. But the villagers of Morning Dew Valley are all natives of the east, even if they can resolve a crisis, where can these old and weak women and children flee? The forests outside the east are full of dangers, and they are likely to be attacked by monsters along the way.

Zero's heart became even more irritable.

She was not grateful to Lin Qiu and the others, because in her opinion, her death in Steel City was the best ending of the whole thing, this was the price she paid for her failure in the imperial capital, and the villagers of Morning Dew Valley would not lose their lives for her failure.

"It's useless. ”

Ophelia pulled her up from the ground and whispered, "Even if you die, Prince Dima will not spare Morning Dew Valley, otherwise he will not let those villagers assassinate us." ”

Dima naturally didn't think that the villagers of Morning Dew Valley could really bother them, and this kind of trick of killing people with knives was at best an aftershow that he had come up with on the fly.

Zero was stunned suddenly, and his eyes were a little lost for a while: "But he obviously promised me......"

"Don't pin your hopes on the person who ordered you to kill you, your own village will be protected by your own hands!" Lin Qiu said after hearing the conversation between the two. And his words fiercely stimulated Zero's panicked heart at this moment, her attitude changed, her tone was full of anxiety, and she angrily accused Lin Qiu: "It's obviously all your fault! If you don't come to save me, the people in the village will be fine! What do you know about this country? This is not the imperial capital, no one can resist Prince Dima, not even the king! His army will definitely set foot in the Morning Dew Valley, and everything will be over...... You're to blame for that!"

"Then you stay. ”

Lin Qiu's words made everyone stunned, obviously a few minutes ago, he was almost fighting for the Zero and Dove, no one expected him to suddenly say such a thing. Zero didn't seem to be able to adapt to Lin Qiu's transformation either, his eyes widened, and he stared at him in disbelief.

"In terms of courage, you are not even as good as the village chief, at least he dares to pick up the weapon in his hand. ”

"Tyr!" Judith motioned with her eyes to Lin Qiu to say a few words.

"People who don't want to save themselves, no matter what we do, it's in vain. Lin Qiu looked directly at Zero, but the latter avoided his gaze: "If you are still afraid of Dima, then go back to the prison and wait for the day when we drag him down." ”

......

Morning Dew Valley.

The silence of the night was broken by the sound of horses' hooves from far and near, and the torches in the hands of the soldiers lit the path, and a man ran back to the village with a rolling belt, and finally stopped in front of the village chief. The village chief moved a chair and sat alone at the entrance of the village without saying a word, calmly watching the troops from far and near.

There is no doubt that this is Prince Dima's army, the elite unit of Steel City.

He ...... They sent three captains!They must have found out that Master Zero had been rescued!" the visitor reported.

Captain-level figures are second only to Prince Dima's guards in the inner city, except for personal guards, Dima did not set up a position similar to that of commander, he carried out the work of commander himself, and set up a number of captains, each commander of about 100 troops. These captains were carefully selected from countless soldiers, and many of them were officers who had followed Prince Dima in the northern and southern wars.

This means that in order to exterminate them, Prince Dima sent an army of up to 300 people.

As the village chief, he had never seen such a large number of troops in his life, but his expression was much soothed. Prince Dima is so excited, which means that Zero must have been rescued by Lin Qiu and others.

At this moment, another man slipped out of the room and reported: "The women are hiding in their respective cellars, and we have arranged the archers according to your request!"

The reporter's expression was indifferent.

The total number of villagers in Morning Dew Valley was less than a hundred, and excluding the old, weak, women and children, there were only more than forty people left who could join the battle, and most of these forty people were farmers, and they could not be compared with the elite troops in the steel city.

"Village Chief, you should also hide in the cellar, and the outside affairs will be left to us!" said the reporter.

When they entrusted Lin Qiu and others to rob the prison, they had the determination to die. If it hadn't been for Zero repelling the monsters that attacked the village, the villagers of Morning Dew Valley would have turned into the bellied of the monsters. Now, they are just repaying Zero's kindness to them.

This is a long-standing tradition in the Valley of Morning Dew.

Kindness is everyone's kindness, so even when facing an enemy who is several times stronger than them, they will not run away and beg for mercy.

"I can still fight. The village chief stood up from his chair.

The sound of horses' hooves grew louder and louder, and the revelry of the soldiers and the rattle of iron tools were heard along with it.

"The armies obeyed. ”

The captain at the front of the team raised the giant sword in his hand and shouted, "No one will be left!"
