Section XIII
Sign up, rejoice first!
-------------------
It was a cold night in early spring, the air was covered with a layer of frost, Gray had been staying at the top of the mountain, and Thor had no intention of leaving. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Time passed little by little, until the sky was a little white, and there was still no movement, and Thor's frown never let go from the beginning, "Isn't that like that?" or did our plans be exposed?" he muttered to himself.
Erfei also walked to the top of the mountain at this time, "Your Excellency Thor, if the other party is smart enough, they must fight quickly, and this is the best time to launch a sneak attack, am I right? Gray Knight, obviously the show has just begun!"
It wasn't until Erfei opened his mouth to speak that Gray and Thor realized that there was an extra figure behind them, not because they were not alert enough, but because they had put all their minds on the camp in the distance, and because it had been too long, they were a little tired physically and mentally.
"Look!" Erfe's eyes were good, and Gray and Thor followed his gaze.
Gray looked at it, but was taken aback, "How can it be... Goblin!" He wanted to talk about the goblins, but when he saw Erfei beside him, he immediately changed his words, and he glanced at Erfei and Thor next to him, but they were not surprised at all, as if they already knew.
"Aren't these goblins intellectually retarded, like beasts, and how do they know how to sneak attack?" asked Gray.
Thor's eyes were a little cold, "This question, you'll know after a while!"
The camp over there was a little far from the top of the mountain, and with the fog of the early spring morning, Gray could only see a rough idea, a large group of goblins had taken the camp very easily, and had not even encountered any resistance, and the militia in charge of the sentry must have been dozing off at this time.
The battle came suddenly and ended quickly. After the battle, the goblins seemed to have regained their nature, they were crazy in the camp, the corpses of those militia were pulled and chopped by them, Gray couldn't stand it, but Gray forced himself not to turn his head.
In the blink of an eye, the goblins had made a mess of the entire camp, but strangely enough, they hadn't touched the wagons at all. It wasn't until after the large group of goblins left, leaving behind a small group of goblins, that they began to rummage over the wagon, as if looking for the treasure above.
The goods on the wagons were taken to the area around the camp and thrown on the ground at will, and they were deliberately creating the scene! Anyone who saw them behave like that would think.
Erfei chuckled, "Seems to be very clever, and he did this to make us think that the goblins lost it while they were looting the goods." ”
Thor's eyes were very good, and he could clearly see things ten miles away, "He is indeed very smart, he took most of the gold nuggets, but Jingtie only took some at random." ”
The value of these gold nuggets is not small, you must know that the most popular currency on the continent now is only silver coins, and gold coins are only used when the amount is huge! The gold nuggets here can cover the taxes of the Earldom of Herion for at least nearly ten years.
The goblins over there have already withdrawn a lot, and only a few are left who are unwilling to leave, Thor retracted his gaze, "Gray, you can go back to Herien City first, remember! You left the team because you didn't agree with Mark the Affairs Officer, don't tell anyone the truth about this matter, including Sir Dale, you know?"
Gray was stunned when he heard Thor's words, he didn't intend to tell anyone, but Thor mentioned his uncle Sir Dale again, is there something wrong with him? Gray nodded, "Don't worry, Lord Thor!"

Gray led the nine cavalry all the way, and when he left, Gray did not see Mark, he did not know what happened to the officer, he had no way to evaluate the right and wrong of the other party, although he betrayed the fifty or so militiamen who respected him for his knightly title.
Because, if it were Gray himself, he would do the same.
By the time he entered the city of Herion, the magic time clock on the clock tower had reached 9 o'clock in the morning, and the people of the city had just eaten breakfast and were busy for the new day, Gray asked the cavalry to return to his barracks, and he himself went straight to the barracks of the castle knights' guards.
The captain of the guard, Ganard Jarre, was already working in the office, and Gray knew that the captain of the guard usually didn't have anything important, and he only came to see it in the afternoon and then left, and it was usually his adjutant Taylor Rayland who worked here.
Garnard was a little surprised by Gray's arrival, and he was actually stunned when he was always expressionless, and blurted out: "Gray Knight, why are you here?"
Gray was also stunned, and the adjutant Tairo next to him was even more surprised by his chief's reaction, and Ganard immediately sensed his gaffe, and immediately returned to a rigid and serious expression, "I mean, didn't you send them to scout those goblins?"
This Ganard is actually called the goblin of the Red Rain Forest Goblin, Gray took out the parchment from his bosom and handed it to the adjutant Tairo next to him, "The task has been completed, their gathering points, I have marked them on the map, but a cavalryman died!"
Gray won't mention the performance of those cavalry in the reconnaissance mission, not because Gray is fighting for merit, but because no one cares, but if a cavalryman dies, he has to report.
Ganard frowned, "Their relatives will receive a good pension!" he said casually, as if he didn't care about the lost cavalry, and then he habitually tapped his fingertips lightly on his desk, thinking about the problem, Gray could only wait quietly for now.
In just a minute or two, Garnard glanced at Gray and flipped through the documents on his desk, "Well, let's do this first, you have also worked hard, you will have a day off today, and you must report to the guard on time tomorrow, since we have already been scouted, we may attack at any time!"
Gray immediately bowed and retreated!
Out of the castle guards, Gray decided to go to Sir Dale's house first, Sir Dale liked to live in the city of the Prime Minister's residence, although his manor outside the city was larger than here, and the decoration was more luxurious than this, but he liked his official residence, probably because it was the closest to the castle.
Of course, Gray also has his own estate, which is the most basic treatment of a knight, but it is only small.
The servants of Sir Dale's family knew Gray, and he easily entered the home of the Prime Minister in the Heron Domain, where Sir Dale usually took care of his official business in the study of the Prime Minister's residence.
"Knock," Gray knocked softly.
"Come in!" the voice was soft, and a little tired.
