A Gray's nose was filled with the smell of leather and metal, the smell of the armor of the knights in the hall, and of course the smell of alcohol from the knights, and when he looked around at his family knights, most of them held their chests up and showed their most spiritual side to their loyal lords

Robert Knight, one of the first knights to be canonized by Gray, could have received a knighthood according to his current position, but Gray did not give him this title.

Gray doesn't like this knight, it's not that he doesn't have ability, on the contrary, his ability is obvious to all, but Gray doesn't like his tactful attitude, he lacks a soldier's killing spirit, however, his character is quite good in the Covinder area in peacetime, but it's wartime.

"Have all our troops arrived?" asked Gray, who was naturally the highest military governor in the Cowin area, Knight Robert.

"Yes, my lord, including the two thousand troops of the Seku Command, they rushed over as fast as they could after receiving your warrant!" "Knight Robert's knightly armor was polished by his squire, and he was a little bald in middle age, with a little brown hair with a little gray hair.

"How much more time will it take for the defensive line in the Covinde area to be set up?" Gray asked again.

Robert Knight was nervous when he heard this, he raised his eyes to look at Gray, and when he saw the impatient look on Gray's face, he subconsciously wanted to explain, "My lord, because the Covinde area is mostly plain, this requires..."

"Knight, I'm asking you how long it will take to complete the defensive line, not asking you the specifics!" Gray said in a stern tone, "Tell me if our defensive line can hold if the orcs arrive in a day's time!"

"The town of Three Forks is on a major transportation route, if you want to defend here, you must guard the intersection that extends in all directions, this is not only a matter of troops, Lord Viscount, this..."

"Viscount Cage!" Keyes interrupted Robert Knight abruptly, and his voice was so loud that everyone in the hall turned their eyes to him.

Ignoring the others, Keith looked directly at Gray, "Stop these useless conversations, Viscount Cage! You know the situation in the Covinder area! What are you hesitating about? or what are you afraid of? What is it that keeps you from making a decision? Is the sword at your waist just an ornament?"

Keith clearly sensed Gray's hesitation, he had also received a letter from Sir Gowen, and the old knight knew very well how difficult the choice Gray was now facing, so he told Keith to be sure to speak at the critical time.

When Keith read Sir Goblin's letter, he said to his chief of guard, Sir Sven, "Sir Goblion is a hundred times more cunning than the smartest jerboa!"

Viscount Case had no reason to refuse, and it was best for him to persuade him to do so. But Sir Gowen would not have known that the mad viscount would say such a thing in front of many of the knights of Gray's family.

However, Keith was such a man, although he spit on honor, he guarded it in another way, just as his brother could have killed his brother himself a few years ago because he was going to surrender to the Earl of Lockton.

Gray's face became ugly because of Viscount Keys's questioning, but it was not because the other party's words were not good, but because the other party said what he thought appropriately.

Yes, he was afraid, in fear of the situation after failure. He didn't want to lose everything he had now, and he was furious that Keith had torn down his hypocritical mask, and his anger made the steel sword in his hand tremble.

But Gray, as the person concerned, does not know where his anger comes from, and he thinks that it is Case's unreasonableness that makes him angry.

Ignoring Gray's anger, Keith only looked at Gray quietly.

Keith's words caused a brief silence among the knights in the hall, who had no idea that Keith would suddenly jump out and question their allegiance lord loudly.

"Shut up, you damn 'brother killer'!

As the commander of Harrrens' Legion, Knight Hanks was the first to speak, staring at Keith with a pair of bloodthirsty eyes, and he walked towards the other as he spoke, the wooden floor creaking with his military boots.

Sir Sven nervously held Keith behind him, and with a wry smile on his face, he suddenly couldn't understand who he was loyal to.

"Hanks!" Gray called out to Knight Hanks, who rose from his seat, his heavy breathing indicating that he was now trying to suppress his anger.

Gray was now like a liar who had been exposed to lies, he could only hide his true thoughts with anger, and now he looked at the indifferent smile on Keith's face, and he swore that he really wanted to tear that face apart, because it reminded him of the embarrassment he had when he faced Baroness Laglay as a child.

However, Gray found that he had nothing to do with Keys, and killed him? Surely not, the Corvind region needed the Donna family to maintain their rule and punish him? Then Gray was like an angry loser, which would make him the laughing stock of his own knights!

At this critical moment, there was a sound of an argument outside the gate.

Gray didn't want to pay attention to it, but his voice became louder and louder, which made Gray, who was already in an irritable mood, suddenly have a place to vent, and he shouted angrily: "Anyone can do it, go and shut them up, or I will let them know how great the cost of disturbing this meeting is!"

"Viscount Cage, it's me, Erfe, Erfe vonde!" a sharp, familiar voice came into Gray's ears.

A goblin figure came to Gray's mind, and he glanced at Keith, who was already recuperating with his eyes closed, and shouted to the door, "For the goddess's sake, let Lord Erfei in, it's too noisy!"

The door opened, and a small but richly dressed goblin walked in, and as he went, he saluted the knights in the room, and when he saw Gray at the front, he hurriedly said, "Dear Viscount Cage, I have brought bad news, I hope you will not be frightened when you hear it." ”

"Even if it's a ninefold hell, I can face it calmly!" Gray responded.

"It's not that serious!" Erfei said seriously, "My deputy told me that the orcs are sending more troops to the south, and we don't know the specifics, because their secrecy this time is a little better than last time!"

As if the goblin wanted to whisper this information to Gray, he deliberately lowered his voice, but he didn't know that his voice was actually very loud, and the knights present could already hear it clearly.

"Is your information accurate?" Gray's face changed, and his body subconsciously leaned forward.

"Of course, I think it won't be long before you get the news!" Erfe made an exaggerated expression, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be scared?"

"That's because your intelligence is more terrifying than the Nine Hells!"
