"You, Viscount William! you've just killed an earl!" said Governor Locks, with difficulty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"I know. ”

William nodded, a calm expression. It's as if what I just killed was just an insignificant ant.

"That's an earl! Count!" reminded the Governor of Locks again, trying to find a very different expression on William's face.

However, to the disappointment of Governor Locks, William's face remained unusually calm and unremorseful.

"Lord Governor Locks, don't worry about me. There was an outbreak of ghouls in the province of Kuwait, and the Count of Willis brought some old and sick people to fool him, and I killed him, although it was wrong, but I took advantage of it. ”

William said lightly, "In addition, when I return to the imperial capital, I will personally report this matter to His Majesty and take responsibility with all my might." As for the verdict, there is no need for Governor Locks to worry about it. It's getting late, so Governor Locks should rest early. ”

Governor Locks asked with some hesitation, "Count Willis's relatives..."

"Send someone directly to send the body over. They are coming for my trouble, and I welcome them at any time. ”

Governor Locks was speechless for a moment.

It was destined to be a sleepless night.

The Governor lay in bed, tossing and turning, and his mind was full of thoughts about the death of Count Willis tonight.

Those frightened aristocratic lords worked hard all night, ordering troops, not only drawing out the guards in the fiefdom towns, but also bringing some private soldiers.

This time, they did things quickly, returning one night, and at noon the next day, they rushed back, bringing with them a total of more than 2,000 troops.

Now, the Governor of Locks has been supplemented by this powerful group of reinforcements, and the number of troops has increased dramatically, from more than 1,700 to nearly 4,000 now.

More than 4,000 physically strong soldiers with more or less military training had a good chance of winning against the more than 2,000 ghouls already surrounded in the mountains.

What's more, ghouls are unintelligent and don't know much about tactics at all. The only terrible thing is probably to rely on the numerical superiority and rush to the top.

But the Governor of Rocks, on his part, was not prepared to give the ghouls such a chance.

In the evening, in the deliberation of the multitude...... Under the discussion between the governor of Locks and William, and the noble lords observed, a plan to encircle and suppress the ghouls soon took shape.

The first step of the plan is to divide the war zone and break it into pieces.

On the side of the governor of Locks, a team of 100 people was sent to hunt the ghouls scattered on the outskirts of the mountains from the outside in, causing the number of ghouls to drop sharply.

The second step of the plan is to build on the first step, gather a large army to rush back and forth, and completely disperse the ghouls.

In the third and final step of the plan, Governor Locks' side was once again broken into pieces, and in the form of a team of 100 people, the scattered ghouls who were left alone were wiped out.

After this battle plan was formed, that night, after the Governor of Locks re-knitted the soldiers, he finally gave the order to go out in full!

That night, the soldiers who had divided into small groups began to hunt down the ghouls on the outskirts of the mountains, armed with torches like fire dragons.

The soldiers were all in detachments, fighting on their own.

Under the bright moonlight, Governor Locks, riding a tall horse, wearing snow-bright armor, a blade at his waist, and a spear in his hand, led more than 300 soldiers behind him to charge a small village occupied by ghouls on the outskirts of the mountains.

The ghouls, who wandered aimlessly in the fields and small villages, heard the sound, and their sensitive noses asked for the breath of the living, as if they had found an attack at once, and they all came to kill.

There aren't many ghouls in this small village. Evenly distributed, one ghoul has to deal with two well-trained soldiers armed with spears and sharp weapons.

William didn't make a move either.

He stood on the top of a hill and looked out at the scene below where the Governor of Locks was fighting the ghouls, his brow furrowed, as if he was contemplating something.

"These ghouls, as rumored, only attack their enemies with their teeth and claws. It's so stupid that you don't even use weapons. ”

Behind William, Master Rhine looked at it for a while and said with a smile.

William shook his head and said, "I always feel that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. ”

Master Rhine didn't know why, and when he saw William, he didn't look interested in saying more, so he didn't ask any more.

Below, the fighting in the hamlet broke out quickly and ended quickly.

Governor Locks is a man who once fought in the defense of the Empire's borders. He is now middle-aged and has become the governor of the province appointed by the empire, but his martial arts have not fallen behind.

He alone has more than a dozen ghouls, and he doesn't need the help of soldiers.

In the end, after the soldiers had hunted down the remaining 100 or so ghouls in the hamlet, the battle came to an end on Governor Locks' side.

The dozen or so ghouls didn't even touch Governor Locks' kick, and they were killed in pieces and shattered all over the ground.

Ghouls are not handled properly after death and are prone to plague outbreaks. People infected with the plague will turn into new ghouls.

When the soldiers came, they had already received the relevant orders and how to deal with them.

At this moment, there was no need for Governor Locks to speak, and immediately a soldier set a fire, turning the entire small village into a sea of fire.

Governor Locks was in a hot sweat. He dismounted his horse, did not take off his heavy armor, and walked directly to William's side.

"Your Excellency, good craftsmanship. William said a compliment or two.

Governor Locks laughed, "Where." Once upon a time, my father invited a vindictive teacher to come to his home and teach me how to learn vindictiveness. But I had no talent, and the teacher was disappointed, passed on a set of killing moves for combat, and left. ”

William laughed when he heard this.

It's just a mountainous outskirts, and there are a lot of lone ghouls, and the soldiers will hunt them without causing any casualties.

After Governor Locks and his party had exterminated the ghouls in a small village here, they rested for a while and then got up and rushed to the next battlefield.

At this time, William proposed to resign.

When Governor Locks heard this, he was stunned.

Because the place where William was going after his resignation was not to garrison the soldiers at the defensive line of various mountain routes, but to continue to go deeper, to a small town called 'Law' in the hinterland of ghouls.

The town of Law, with a population of more than 700 aborigines, is the largest place in the mountainous area.

If the town of Rouse has fallen, the more than 700 people in the town will become more than 700 ghouls, turning the town into a tiger's den in Longtan.

If Rouse hadn't fallen and was still struggling to support himself, it meant that he could save a lot of survivors.

In all fairness, William was not a benevolent man who intended to save the world. Even on the contrary, at some point, William was extraordinarily cold-blooded in his bones, and the life and death of the orc race were ignored by him.

He also went to the small town of Rouse, and there was also a purpose for him. He was going to ask the survivors something that might be useful to him. (To be continued.) )
