Chapter 55: Baron Victor

The whole army came to a complete halt at the fork in the road, and the patrol that had been just a faΓ§ade was being carried out, and the sentinels began to stand guard in groups of two, and the scouts scattered to reconnoiter the surroundings. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

They were safe, but were quickly arrested. The wound on the back of the demon wolf Nakalya was still bloodied before the nervous soldiers drove them into the cage, and the four were taken to the commander of this army with their weapons. These more than 1,000 soldiers were originally going to march to the designated place before dark, but it was not a small accident to encounter another army with unknown origin in the empire, and according to the rules, it was necessary to find out the situation and draw conclusions, and then report it to the superiors.

The commander wore a velvet tunic decorated with golden tassels, a short black coat in mink. He sat with his back straightened behind the makeshift table and chairs, looking at them like a prisoner.

"Hello everyone, I am Baron Victor, you may call me General Victor, or Your Excellency the Baron. He tapped his fingers on the table and introduced himself slowly and arrogantly, "Now, I want you to explain who you are, who is chasing you, and the ins and outs of the whole thing...... Well, let's start with this delirious little girl, I suspect that you are involved in human trafficking and have abused her. ”

"Dieter Javel, a serious merchant, my caravan is in Shadow Town, and I am preparing to leave the country for business. Dieter said, "This is my nephew, Rorick Hart, my subordinate Sylna, and the monster hunter I hire......"

"Needless to say, I know. The commander glanced at Ryan with an unkind face, "You damn monster killer, how can you be seen in any shit?"

"I'm sorry, Baron. Ryan shrugged, apparently knowing the other as well: "I also don't want to be disgusted by you in front of Your Excellency, but it doesn't seem to be very successful." ”

The commander didn't care much about Ryan, and there was some friction between the two, but it wasn't a grudge. He also knows that he is a duty hunter who strictly abides by the rules of the trade: "Then Mr. Dieter, let me explain this delirious girl." ”

"We caught the orc we were chasing and were about to return, when the girl suddenly appeared and fell in front of us. ”

"Please explain what it looks like to 'appear out of nowhere'. Baron Victor looked impatient and coldly interrupted Dieter's narration: "Or are you too lazy to make up a story to fool me?"

"Suddenly appearing is suddenly appearing, a light ...... And then she appeared......" Rhodes muttered, "it must have been some kind of spatial magic, she teleported to us, and the black-armored monsters who were chasing us came through the portal......"

"Enough! don't use your magic to scare people. The commander angrily interrupted Rhodes again: "Don't think that this is a backcountry, so all the people are hillbillies. I'm not a mage, but there is a mage working under me, I have some concept of magic, I still have a number of how rare and difficult space magic is to teleport from a distance, do you want to say this girl, and a bunch of people over there, all of them? Then they form an army, can't they instantly reach every place in the world to carry out surprise attacks?"

But that's the way it is, Rod looked at the commander with a disapprehensive expression, and did not back down.

The baron was a little puzzled, he didn't know where this fair-skinned and handsome young man had the courage to look at himself in such eyes. If something falls into his hands, he dares to be arrogant, either a fool or a hard backstage, but the social status of the military in Midland is extremely high, and he doesn't have to buy it in the general backstage.

However, no matter what kind of situation the boy is in front of him, he can't get along with him.

"Look how the girl is. Victor commanded to the soldiers standing aside.

Only then did everyone look at the girl who had "appeared out of thin air", because she was in a bad state, she was the only one in the improvised marching tent who had a seat except for the commander, and she was leaning back in her chair at the moment, and she didn't seem to be fully conscious.

Rhodes took advantage of the chaos to save her, and ran for several miles on her shoulder, but it was only then that he carefully observed the person she saved: the figure of the mysterious girl was somewhat similar to Silna's, both lean and slender, but taller. She wore a white shirt with a leather corset, tight leather pants, and knee-length boots...... For the first time, Rhodes discovered that girls could look so good in boots.

Victor carefully removed the moss, leaves, and sand from the girl's face and mouth from the fall, and then removed the sea that had hung from her fall. She had applied eyeshadow, but it had been painted, and the area around her eye sockets was blackened, and it looked like war paints painted on the face of a barbarian. A horrific scar caught Rod's eyes, starting from the bottom of the girl's left eye, running through the temporal region to the base of the left ear, red and red, visible at a glance.

Rod's first thought was: No wonder the commander just said that he suspected that she had been abused. And then there is: this scar is not only not ugly, but handsome!

"Don't touch me!" the girl suddenly screamed, raising her arm and striking Victor's hand, who didn't have time to withdraw his hand to dodge.

"It's pretty energetic. The officer smiled, "Then it's time to wake up and explain what's going on here." ”

But the girl only shouted, and then remained silent in a daze.

The baron frowned, stood up straight and took a breath: "Settle her down first and wait for her to wake up, and then bring these people down to take care of it, and I will interrogate them when I have time." ”

Ryan looked at Rod, although he had only known each other for a few hours, he could see that the boy should be not small, but he didn't know if he could settle the matter?

Rhodes stared at the commander angrily, hesitating to report his father's name to the other party...... But he doesn't like the feeling that everything depends on Lao Tzu to settle everything, the big deal is to be locked up for a day.

Dieter was a little helpless, his identity should not be known to ordinary soldiers, but if Rhodes was really imprisoned like a prisoner, he would not dare to let the duke's son suffer this......

There was a commotion outside the tent, and a tall man opened the curtain and walked in.

"Grom, you're alright!" Rod shouted happily, although the Great Swordsman was covered in blood, it didn't look like it was his own, so he knew there was no need to worry about him.

The man nodded at the boy and did not speak.

A soldier followed behind Grom in a panic: "Sir...... This man said that he was with several people here, and he had to come in, and he also said that he was a nobleman. ”

"Aristocrats, which family, proof?"

Grom tossed his coat of arms to him, and the commander took it, and his attitude immediately changed: "Uh...... It's Sir Grom, and you're with these guys?"

Grom Arrien, I have never heard of this surname, and the knight can only be barely considered a nobleman. But Victor felt as if he had heard the name, and thought for a moment that his top boss, the Duke of Forster, the commander of the national army, had a knight with the same name and surname as the man in front of him, and he was about the same age...... I have been in the army for many years, and I have been so-so, and I have long wanted to find an opportunity to climb up, and I deliberately took the time to understand the background and relationship of the army bosses, and this time it finally came in handy!
