Today, the Tosso family went out to visit friends, and Chris had to take Rachel with him, but fortunately the castle was spacious enough, and Rachel walked around with the maid alone, and the morning passed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brother, when will His Royal Highness the Prince come back?" Rachel came to the Executive Hall and saw that Chris was still on business. Most people knew about the prince taking people out to find Diana, and it had been two days and had not returned.

"It should be soon. Chris calculated that the prince's plan was to find it in three days, plus the time to return, and wait for two more days at most.

"They were gone, and the castle seemed empty. Rachel remembers the last time she came to the party, and it was a lively night, with everyone talking and laughing in the garden.

"They'll come back safely, and then it'll be lively again. Chris said with a smile, the last time the archers went into the mountains to catch wild beasts, there were no accidents, and this time it was no problem.

"Mr. Chris, a gang of robbers has broken into the town, and it looks like they're here to rob them. The guards hurried in, and the men rode straight to the castle, surely with bad intentions.

"Are you sure they're robbers?" Chris was a little suspicious, according to the information he received, the robbers had never come north to Ravenwood, how could they suddenly appear today?

"Just look at how they're dressed. "The guards are in a hurry, the robbers are no joke.

"Hurry up and send someone over to protect the castle. "Chris has been through a lot of things these days, and he has been able to maintain enough sanity to deal with it at this time. It's just that the prince has already left with a large number of people, and the patrols left at this time don't know if they can cope with the past.

"Rachel, you stay here and don't go out. "Chris hid her in the Executive Hall, in case he could put her in danger.

Outside the castle, Chris saw eight men on horseback, and in the middle was a big fat man, whose head was at first glance.

"You're the lord of Ravenwood?" the big fat man looked Chris up and down, and sure enough, he was a nobleman from a poor place, a little different from the ones he had seen before.

"Who are you?" Chris, who did not dare to reveal the news of the prince's departure, and now that the patrol had not yet arrived, in case they robbed the castle, no one could stop them.

"I'm Duru, but you've heard of me as a bandit. The big fat man Duru said proudly that in the southern territory, they were a nightmare for the merchants in the past, as soon as they appeared, the merchants could only leave their goods and flee.

"Then you're here to rob?" Chris couldn't help but get nervous, the other party revealed his identity, and he would never come to gossip. In order to open up a land route, the prince must have a battle with them in the future, could it be that they heard the rumor and came to take revenge now?

"Haha, how can you say it so vulgarly, it's just for you to help the big guy. Duru showed a lewd smile, his purpose was not to rob, otherwise he would be able to grab something with such a few people.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Chris had a bad premonition.

"It's not a loss, it's the lord, it's refreshing. "Durrou is very satisfied, and it is comfortable to talk to cheerful people.

"I heard that you have found a vein in Ravenwood, this is an inexhaustible wealth, your town is so big, and there are so many ores, shouldn't we be able to get rid of it? "Durou's meaning is clear, he wants a piece of the pie.

"That's right, the town didn't find ore in the first place, why didn't you see you stain us with the loot?" Chris thought it was ridiculous, this gang of robbers was really shameless, not only robbing the merchants of the past, but also daring to come to the town today to make such a request, where did they come from to dare to do this.

"So, are you unwilling?" the expression on Duru's face slowly stiffened, and his eyes revealed a fierce light.

Before coming to Ravenwood, they had investigated the situation here, and found that the military strength was very weak before they dared to do so, and they suppressed it before it developed, and there might be an inexhaustible mountain of gold in the future.

"Whether I want it or not is not up to me, and he will make up his mind when the prince returns, but I advise you to die of this heart. "Chris saw that the patrol was rushing this way, and now the strength of the two sides is about the same, so he doesn't have to be afraid of what they will do.

"After talking about it for so long, you are not even a lord. Du Lu gritted his teeth, this is really faceless, he has been fooled by a person with no status for so long, this breath is really unbearable.

"If the prince is here, you can still ride on a horse and show off your might?" Chris couldn't get used to the faces of these people, and now that the town was understaffed, he gave them this opportunity, and he thought he was afraid of them.

"Mr. Chris, is everything alright?" the patrol rushed outside the castle, and everyone drew their swords and prepared for a big fight.

"So far, it's fine. Chris stared at Duru and said that as long as they made a move, the patrol would not let them succeed.

"Well, we'll be back in three days, but I'd like to see your sincerity then, or I'll ......," Durroux said halfway through.

"Or else?" Chris did not accept the provocation, the prince had long had the idea of suppressing the bandits, and if it weren't for the lack of cavalry, it would have been almost time to go to war.

"Look at it. Durrou laughed and rode back into the town.

"What are they going to do?" the patrol was walking on foot, unable to catch up with them.

Chris was in a hurry, and the situation was not good.

The robbers broke into the town's dwellings, taking advantage of the mobility of the horses, to wreak havoc there.

The townsfolk walked on the road and did not have time to dodge, and were directly knocked to the ground by horses, and some people who could not stand it stepped forward to stop them, but were slashed by robbers, and the blood immediately stained the entire placket of their clothes.

"Go and save someone. Chris hurried up with the men, and without bothering to chase the robbers, he hurriedly ordered someone to stop the bleeding of the wounded, and they would be saved as long as Miss Riley returned.

"Did you see that?" said Duruhaha, pleased with his masterpiece.

"You'll regret it. Chris couldn't wait to grab his sword and fight him.

"No, no, no, I don't regret it, I want to see your sincerity, and now it seems that you don't have that plan yet. With a wave of his hand, the robbers made a new move and began to throw fire at the house.

"Stop. Chris looked at the slowly rising flames, and found that his shouts were so weak, and he had no deterrent power in front of the robbers.

"Haha, think about it. Seeing that it was almost over, Duru ordered someone to get on his horse and leave the town, and when he passed by, he suddenly turned and deliberately rushed in front of Chris, causing Chris to be kicked to the ground by the horse's hooves, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out.

"Brother, brother. Rachel, who had been obediently hiding to the side, couldn't help but run over.

"Convey my words well. Duru led the people and began to walk out.

"You, you are so hateful. Rachel stared at Duru, a strange feeling lingering in her heart.

Seeing this, Chris endured the pain and got up to hold Rachel in his arms, now that so many people were present, if her ability was revealed, the prince should be worried about more than just robbers.

Watching the billowing smoke rush into the sky, Chris's heart sank, and a mouthful of blood flowed out again.
