The night was getting deeper, but Grand Duke Julio did not feel sleepy at all, and Grena, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but be a little worried, "Grand Duke, you can sleep for a while, I will call you if there is something." "No need, even if you lie there at night, your mind is full of things, so how can you sleep?"www.biquge.info

Grena couldn't help but sneak a glance at the Grand Duke, and found that his face was full of exhaustion, so many days of hard work and planning will be divided into winners and losers on this night, which is indeed unbearable.

Pouring a glass of wine and putting it in front of the Grand Duke, Grena asked tentatively, "Grand Duke, do you want to prepare some supper for you?" ”

"No, I'll sit here for a while, and if you're tired, go and rest. Julio sat down a little tired, looked at the glass of wine but did not move.

"Then, then I'll go next door to rest, if you have any orders, just call me, there's a bell here, you just need to pull it if you have something." ”

"Okay, you go and rest. Julio silently did something, as if he didn't even bother to speak, Grena gently walked out to help him close the door, at this time the whole rose inn was full of tension, upstairs and downstairs all arranged manpower, ready to deal with the unexpected situation.

Grena walked into the small room next door, although the room is not big, but the layout is very warm, usually when there are special guests, this place will be open, but today she felt so uncomfortable lying on this bed, as if the bed would squeak as soon as she turned over, why didn't she usually notice?

The quiet night through the gap in the curtains, the not-so-bright starlight penetrated in, but it felt so dazzling, Grena couldn't help but turn over again, lying down for a long time but still couldn't sleep, she didn't know why she was so nervous, was it really tempted by the conditions of the big open? Or was it because this was an extraordinary night?

Finally at dawn, she couldn't help but get up quickly, let the people get ready and send it to the small living room in person as soon as possible, knocked on the door gently, and heard the slightly tired voice of the Grand Duke inside, "Come in." She then pushed open the door and walked in, but saw that the Grand Duke had not slept all night, but his spirit was better than last night.

"Such an exquisite breakfast, it looks like it's going to be a good day today. Julio casually picked up a piece of dim sum and put it in his mouth, savored it slowly, and said intoxicated for a long time, "Well, it tastes really good, I want to poach two of your cooks here after tasting this dim sum." ”

"It seems that you are in a particularly good mood today, is it true that the matter has been resolved?" Grena keenly sensed the change in Julio's mood.

"Maybe it's not completely resolved, but I think the crisis here should be resolved. Julio ate two snacks, drank another cup of hot milk tea, and then stretched, "Hey, I'm also a little sleepy, I'll go and rest for a while, remember to wake me up for lunch at noon, and then I'll take you to visit an elder." ”

Who the hell could it be? After arranging for the Grand Duke to rest, Grena couldn't help but think about this question repeatedly, is he going out? The nearest Nanjun is also more than a day's journey, so the person he visited should obviously be in the mercenary city, and can be called an elder by the Grand Duke, what should this person be?

After lunch, Julio changed into a new set of clothes and checked it carefully, and when he saw that there was nothing wrong, he asked Grena to accompany him to a small bookstore.

As soon as he entered the door, the young man Mike greeted him warmly, "Sir, ma'am, what do you two need?" ”

Julio waved his hand, "We're not here to read a book, we're here to visit your boss." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an old man's voice behind him say, "It's little Julio, you don't have to come to see me, the favor I owed to your grandfather back then has now been repaid, and we have nothing to do with it in the future, but as an elder, I still have to advise you, don't learn from your father, otherwise you will gain more than you lose, you are very smart, but don't use that bit of intelligence in conspiracy, you go." ”

Julio's face couldn't help turning white, and then quickly turned red, he still wanted to say something, but when he heard the old man's firm tone, he finally stopped his words and bowed deeply to the back door, "Then the junior will leave, I hope your old man has a happy time here, if there is any need, just send someone to bring me a letter, I will do my best." ”

"Hmm. After a soft hum, and then without a sound, Julio hurriedly took Grena out of the bookstore.

"Come with me around this mercenary city, although this is also the land of my principality, I rarely have the opportunity to come here. ”

Grena was careful to accompany her, but she did not dare to ask any questions, although she was full of curiosity about the identity of the old man, but this matter was obviously not supposed to be known to her, and Julioken brought herself here on this trip, apparently to let her act as her bodyguard.

Suddenly, the discussion of a group of mercenaries next to her attracted her attention, "Hey, have you heard? There was a fierce battle outside the city last night, and an old man blocked tens of thousands of troops by himself, killing thousands of people in seconds with just one move, and directly shaking that army back. ”

"How did I hear that the entire army was wiped out in a single move?" "No, no, most of them were wiped out, and some of the seriously injured ones ran quickly to escape. ”

This is an old mercenary and said with a smile, "Hehe, you juniors, look down on us old guys on weekdays with a little ability, my old man is here to tell you today, I don't know how many retired masters are hidden in this small mercenary city, any one of them was a powerful figure back then, you can pay more attention to the old man in the future." ”

As he spoke, the old mercenary stretched out his hand to a young mercenary's wine glass, but the man snatched it away, "Old fellow, don't try to steal my wine, how can I not see the smell of a hermit like you." The mercenaries next to him laughed.

These conversations made Grena know at least a few things, there was indeed an army planning to attack the Grand Duke last night, and the old man in the bookstore was probably the rumored hermit master, what was his identity?

Julio smiled when he heard this, and then said to Grena "Let's go, let's go back, even the mercenary city seems deserted when this war starts." ”

While walking Grena, she paid attention to Julio's footsteps, and found that his steps seemed to be extremely brisk at this time, and it seemed that a person's mood did have a great impact.

"It seems that news from your people will come soon, and now that the carpentry mill and mine are basically yours, how about this deal is still satisfactory?" Julio said to Grena as he walked.

"Of course, I am of course very satisfied with the harvest so quickly, but I also want to thank you for giving me this opportunity, and I hope that the Grand Duke will not forget our Rose Mercenary Group if there are such good things in the future.

"Haha, don't forget that we are friends, and no matter what happens in the future, I hope we can help each other as friends. The Grand Duke's words sounded meaningful, and Grena didn't know how to answer for a moment, so she had to smile and nod.

The next evening, the Governor of Lille was anxiously wandering around his room, and the eyes of several people beside him kept moving with his footsteps, until finally one of them could not help but shout to him, "Old Harry, I said you can't sit down, why are you like an ant on a hot pan?"

"Hey, I want to sit down too, but I 、、、、 in my heart, I always feel that something is going to happen, I'm afraid that something is wrong in what we planned, and if I don't get it right, I will have to face the army of the principality directly, and I will also have to bear the great crime of rebellion, do you think I can calm down?" the governor was still spinning around.

"But can you do anything about it by just going around? Haven't you sent back the news yet? Maybe they've taken the little fox by now, and are on their way back. ”

"Then there should be news, right? Before leaving, I had them prepare carrier pigeons, and even if it was noon today at the latest, there should be news back, but now, 、、、 hey, I shouldn't have listened to the agitation of a few of you in the first place, if something really happened, I am afraid that my life will be 、、、, if it really comes to that time, I don't ask for anything else, only ask you to cut my face, can help my son, our West family only has this one seedling, you must help me keep this bloodline." After saying this, the governor of Lille suddenly wanted to let go of the stone in his heart, and his spirit seemed to be less nervous.

"Old Harry, I said, why do you say something frustrating? How can we make a mistake if tens of thousands of people go to take him alone? Besides, hasn't the inside line already been said? Even his close guard bull is not by his side, are you afraid that he will put on his wings and fly?"

"Yes, yes, I was thinking about what was wrong just now, and when you said this, I remembered that the bull was the shadow of Julio's little fox, and he never left him, but now he suddenly lost his trace, can you say that there is no article in it?"

"Maybe the bull slipped away when he saw that the situation was not good?" "Fart, I know the bull too well, it's a good minion who would rather lose his life than leave, how can he escape?"

At this moment, suddenly a person ran in in a panic outside, "Lord Governor, it's a big 、、、deal、、、、 there's news from Mercenary City, I 、、、 we 、、、 we failed." ”

"What the hell is going on?" Governor Lille's face turned white suddenly, and beads of sweat rolled down his fat face, and the person who came kicked directly on the threshold because he was too nervous couldn't help but fly in horizontally, but saw Governor Lille's hand like lightning, grabbed the note in his hand, and let him fall to the ground hard.

After reading the contents of the note, the Governor of Lille's face turned completely pale, his body shook, and he actually sat down on the ground, so frightened that several people hurriedly hugged him, "What the hell is wrong?"

"We're done. The Governor of Lille handed over the note weakly, and several people couldn't help but be shocked when they saw it, "What can we do about this? Why don't we start our troops here, if it doesn't work in the dark, we can simply come to the light, now Julio's army is probably reinforcing the front line, and there is no strength to defend ,、、、"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a sudden chaos outside the door, and suddenly several people's nerves became tense, "Lord Governor,、、、 ah!"

The door was kicked open, and a group of people broke in, and when old Harry saw the people who were the leader, his face suddenly turned to ashes, and the other people were all pale.

Old Harry suddenly laughed miserably, "Loren, it turned out to be you, in fact, I should have guessed that it was yours a long time ago, the lesson, this is the lesson, I don't know how greedy the human heart is, but I know that I buried our West family because of my greed, hahahahaha." The laughter was full of misery, which made people feel creepy.

"It's good that you know, this is the price you paid for betraying the principality, and someone will take care of these distinguished guests for me. At the sound of an order, a group of soldiers suddenly broke in, and they couldn't help but say that they were going to take people.

These people obviously refused to be arrested, and couldn't help but shout, "Loren, I think you dare! Don't look at you as a red man in Julio's eyes, we are the people of the Grand Duke of Charlotte, and we are here as guests, and if you dare to be disrespectful to us, you are openly making enemies of the Grand Duke of Charlotte." ”

"Oh, it's a harsh voice. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream, and the man who had been yelling just now had turned into a corpse, and blood was gushing down his severed throat.

Suddenly the room was filled with blood, Loren looked at a few people, and then ordered, "This old Harry will leave me behind, and the rest will leave me a living Archduke Charlotte's person, and you can watch and deal with the rest, but I don't want to see living people come out of here again." ”

Saying that, Luo Lun turned around and walked out, and the messengers of the Grand Duke of Charlotte immediately went crazy when they heard this, and roared, "Luo Ren, even if we die, I will take you to pay for your life." ”

As he spoke, he flew up, so that those warriors couldn't resist for a while, and they were about to rush to Luo Lun's approach, but suddenly saw his fingers connected, and then those people flew out like a rag bag, and Luo Lun had already begun to carefully wipe the almost perfect nails, and looked at the few corpses lying on the ground with contempt, and said coldly, "I can't help myself." ”

This is the end of the once-illustrious West family, hundreds of people from the upper and lower tribes want to rush out to flee for their lives, ushered in the merciless slaughter of the warriors, and the huge courtyard is full of corpses and blood spurted out.

Luo Lun looked at all this coldly, and finally ordered the warrior beside him, "Check it carefully again, and make sure that no one from the West family is left." ”

"My lord, what about these corpses?" a soldier asked, pointing to the messy courtyard, and Luo Lun couldn't help but fan his nose with his hand, "I hate blood, no matter how you clean such a yard, it will smell of blood, burn it." ”

After a while, the huge courtyard was lit with a raging fire, this fire may take a few days to extinguish, but no one dared to put out the fire, let alone go in to pick up the finances inside, and now those who have a little relationship with the West family are afraid to avoid it, who dares to stir up this troubled waters?

Loren pressed old Harry and a messenger from the Duke of Charlotte, still walking on the road, when suddenly he rode a fast horse to report, "Report to your lordship, there has been news from Lord Bull, the soldiers of the three barracks in Lille County have all surrendered, only one barracks has fiercely resisted, and Lord Bull has ordered the killing of 10,000 people." ”

"Okay, needless to say, as long as he controls the barracks, let him go on a big bus by himself when the time comes, we go to the front now, and I'll meet that Ryan West, and that little cub of the West family.
