Not only Lothar, but Leon and Elsa, who split up from Cheese, also encountered the native nezumi who frantically flooded the town. Luckily, however, the Bear Hunters and the Kingdom Knights, who were the forces of frontal resistance, attracted most of the attention of the rats. This gave the two the possibility of crossing the war zone. A one-handed sword was retrieved from the corpse of some hapless bear hunter nearby, Leon's previous armor and weapons were confiscated before the trial, and the lack of a weapon to fit was also a big problem for the knight chief and the proprietress as well.

"No, I can't get through here!" he threw the short sword in his hand, and the one-handed sword turned in a perfect circle in the air before hitting the head of a proto-nezumi. Beside the rat man who was brutally shot in the head were three other rat men who tried to attack the two of them. Only now they're corpses lying on the remote streets of Turbulence. In this narrow passage, unguarded by human soldiers, the Blood Lion could see multiple nezumi moving along the shadows between the buildings. It would be an impossible task to traverse this narrow passage without alerting them.

"Then what should we do? The avenue is full of bear hunters and knights, and it is impossible for them to escort us to the quarantine area!" Elsa was also very anxious at this time. Although she is still worried about the safety of Cheese, it does not mean that she is indifferent to the lives and deaths of her comrades in the quarantine. However, the current situation is that although the number of nezumi decreases the farther away from the frontal battlefield after the observation of the two, these nezumi have at least maintained the habit of moving in groups of three or five, which makes it very dangerous for Leon to rashly fight these nezumi when there are only two of them.

The knight chief frowned and thought for a moment, he walked over to the corpse of the nezumi and pulled out the sword stuck in the corpse's head, and said.

"The safest way now is to leave the town's confines from the west side of Turbulge Town and then take a detour to the quarantine zone. ”

"But without these buildings, wouldn't we have nowhere to run if we ran into the nezumi?" the proprietress questioned the Captain's idea.

"No way, although we really can't hide our tracks outside the town, but on the other hand, the same goes for the rat people. If we had to make our way through the town, we wouldn't just face enemies on the ground. Leon looked up and signaled that the roof could also be an ambush for the nezumi, which he hadn't seen before, but judging by the nezumi's climbing body, it was very likely.

"Damn, why are these nezumi like crazy, if only they were as sane as the sober ones we met in Vale. She scolded in a low voice, which also showed that in the current situation, Elsa knew that what the knight chief said was the only feasible way. Since the current goal is to leave with their companions who may still be in quarantine, they must arrive safely in quarantine.

Seeing that the proprietress agreed, Leon discerned the general direction from the perspective of the sun, and then led Elsa carefully through the seemingly safe roads towards the west of Turbidity Town. But as they made their way, they would occasionally encounter nezumi roaming the streets, and judging from the shadows flying overhead, there were probably far more ratmen than they had seen.

"Strange. Taking advantage of the nezumi not looking, the two of them skillfully crossed a not-so-wide street under the protection of the bunker, and Leon whispered as they ducked into the shadows of the alley once more.

"What's wrong?" asked the proprietress .

"The nezumi seem to be consciously moving through Turbidity. The knight replied in a deep voice. Indeed, as Leon said, the proto-nezumi they encountered on the road did not blindly seek out living people to attack like other compatriots, but instead seemed to be deliberately avoiding humans, carefully passing through the unguarded town of Turbidity while the battle was raging on the frontal battlefield.

Elsa grew up with the Frost Guards, and the old warriors talked about various battles and tactics in the tavern in addition to bragging, so although the proprietress was not interested in these military strategies, she still had some military foundation, and now listening to Leon's words, she quickly realized what these nezumi were doing.

"You're saying they're deliberately attacking the army with all their might outside the town, but they're actually protecting the ratmen from the blockade?"

"I'm afraid so. No, I'll have to go back and warn Lothar, he probably hasn't noticed that yet. Elsa's words were exactly what Leon was worried about, although the Knight Captain had just been framed by his own subordinates, but it was only a factional struggle within the Knights, as a knight, Leon felt that he had an obligation and had to go to the Count of Black Mountain, and some nezumi took advantage of the battle to escape from his blockade. And these nezumi will undoubtedly bring the plague virus beyond the county of Salon. It won't be a regional plague. If this dangerous plague is allowed to spread, the entire kingdom of the blue lion will be plunged into a terrible catastrophe.

"But will the Count of Montenegro believe you, and though he has helped us, he is still presiding over our trial. Of course, the proprietress could not understand the idea of the knight chief, and in her opinion, although Lothar's behavior somewhat prevented him from standing on the opposite side of his group, it was probably impossible for Leon's words alone to make the Count of Montenegro believe unreservedly, and it would also make Leon fall into the hands of Gregory again.

"I have to go no matter what. I can't let this dangerous plague spread. You see, we're dealing with an infected person in just one county, once the plague spreads throughout the kingdom...... I can't imagine what it would be. "Imagine if the entire kingdom of the lion were to fall victim to the plague, the chief knight found it difficult for him to put into words the horror. But fortunately, his expression and tone have infected the boss lady, and Elsa also knows that if the plague is not sealed in the county, Longji Mountain will be attacked by these rat people sooner or later, and in this battle, the human race has no capital to divide.

"Well, I'll go to the quarantine and get our people out of the quarantine the way you pointed out earlier. And Lord Leon, it's up to you to convince the Count of Montenegro to get these fish back from the net. Elsa stroked her chest with one hand, this was the first time she had made a formal courtesy to the chief knight, although her knightly etiquette was nondescript, and she was not a knight herself, but the meaning of the proprietress had been well conveyed.

"I see, leave it to me. But you, I promised the cheese to protect you from here, you must leave safely, or I am afraid I will not be able to explain to him. The chief knight admonished.

"Don't worry, we Northlanders are different from those noble ladies, and we can't stop this girl with these mice. Squeezing out a confident smile, the proprietress is still confident in her skills.

Without further ado, Leon nodded and walked away. Seeing the knight captain leave, Elsa knew that the rest of the way was up to her. As she herself said, as a woman from the Northlands, she was fundamentally different from the women of the kingdom who could only take care of the house. Adjusting her breathing, the proprietress glanced back in the direction Cheese had left as she left the alley.

"You're going to have to come back alive. ”
