Horn stood outside the main hall, and the handover ceremony was being carried out in an orderly manner in the palace square. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info A large number of icemen put on the armor of the Guards, and took the spears, short swords, daggers, and shields in their hands, and when the masks were fastened, it was difficult to tell from the thin cracks of the steel that those soldiers were from the icefields.

"Lord Allen, the people have arrived, and they are waiting for you. One of the guards stood behind him and whispered.

Horn nodded, turned and walked into the main hall.

After the occupation of Karta, the Fifth Council of the Southern Expedition was held in the side room, and Horn did not understand why his father loved this narrow side room, which could only accommodate twenty people at most, and the long tables and chairs were a little old, and there was no decoration except for the paintings on the walls and the curtains used to block the light.

When Horn entered, he found that the side hall was packed, and the attendees were already sitting in their chairs: Kenny was the first, still wearing the dark blue velvet tunic with a silver wolf head necklace around his neck; Mila was now without the company of Duke Jaime, but her momentum was undiminished, a white tunic studded with fine emeralds and a rolled velvet cape, and her hair was coiled in a bun with a sickle crown pressed on it; Kane and Camille's attire remained the same, with armor and white-washed robes that had not been changed for many years; Duke Dark's beard had been trimmed and looked much younger; and Mike had always been very economical in his clothes。 Aiden stands behind Kenny, and on the other side is Linde, the new Captain of the Guard. In addition, there are some of Karta's former courtiers, as well as dozens of dukes from all over the world who have just sworn allegiance to Kenny, supported their own troops, and traveled from afar.

"Alan, there's news from the scout sent to Black. When Horn walked over to the table, Mike told him.

Hearing this, Horn didn't choose the old position at the end of the long table, but pulled open the empty chair next to Mike for the first time and collapsed with a big grin. "What, do you have any new news to share with me?"

"This morning, the scouts sent to Black came back to report that there were less than 20,000 defenders there, and just now, another scout who had infiltrated Black City inquired that the remaining Peace Army was guarding Robin City, and that the commander was not a foreigner. Mike smiled as if he were reporting great news.

"Praise the god of the icefields, she has blessed us!" Camille continued.

"Hey, Iceborn, your ancient god doesn't work here, we should praise the Namu God!" Kane, who was sitting across the long table, sneered, "Come, read with me: Praise the Namu, praise the Namu God!"

"Man, I don't think you're surprised at all?" Mike frowned, "Why, didn't you get the news a long time ago and didn't tell everyone?"

Horn looked at the painting on the wall behind Kane across the long table and shook his head slightly. "No, I just feel like there's fraud in this, more than that. He paused, then turned his gaze to Mike, "To be honest, I don't think even the battle of Karta is a little bit wrong, it's like...... An elaborate scam. If that's the case, we're all in the pit. ”

"Kenny, the people are here, let's start talking about the Assassins?" Mira leaned over to ask her man amid a cacophony of discussions.

"No hurry," Kenny said, "to deal with the war first." Mike, Mike!" Mike turned his head blankly. "Don't just tell Allen the news, tell everyone the news from the scouts, and let everyone hear the good news!"

The topless Eagle stood up, straightened the expression on his face, and retold the news he had just told Horn. “...... The most elite scouts of the Alliance Army were on this mission, and the news came out of the mouths of the Peace Army, so there is no need to question the authenticity of the news. He nodded to Kenny, who raised his hand and pressed down.

"Alright, guys, let's talk about it. After Mike sat down, Kenny whispered.

"You see, Lord Kenny, I'm not lying, Black's garrison is indeed less than thirty thousand. A middle-aged nobleman with a somewhat rusty face opened his mouth first. It seemed that he was the Duke from Deraman City that his father had said a few days ago.

A young man dressed in a fine costume smiled flatteringly. "Lord Kenny, I have a thousand knights, five hundred infantry, and two thousand mercenaries, all of whom are located in Black territory, and are only half a day's journey from the main city. ”

"My lord, to tell you the truth, I'm Davon Matus from Robin City, and I guess you should have an impression of me. A middle-aged nobleman stood up, "I wanted to surrender to you long after the Holy War, when Bill William issued a new slave ordinance, but I never had the chance. Over the years, I have stockpiled enough armor and weapons for 5,000 soldiers, and now I want to dedicate them all to you to equip our great Alliance Army!"

"Lord Kenny, I'm from—"

Kenny tapped the armrest of his chair twice, and Aiden, who was standing nearby, immediately interrupted the fourth's speech: "Sorry, my lords, I'm Lord Kenny's personal soldier Aiden, and the presiding officer of this meeting, please stop talking about your strength, dedication, and loyalty, war will tell." Also, Lord Kenny is not a snarky person, your loyalty is evident, and after the victory of the Southern Expedition, the Lord has promised to retain your territory, titles, and taxing rights, please refrain from any further talk outside of the march into Black City. ”

"Is there any information about Ryan's movements?" Kane's statement seemed a bit blunt and blunt.

"Nope. Mike shook his head.

"It was as if he had disappeared out of thin air, and I couldn't even find the birds. Camille said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Redwin Chogory from north of Shote City, and I have news from Rian. An old nobleman whispered, "After getting the news that Lord Kenny has survived and captured the city of Shotoku...... Sorry, we all thought you were dead. He nodded at Kenny in apology, then continued, "I was going to go to Shotoku City to swear allegiance to you, but by the time I arrived, you had already marched into Karta. Later, I wanted to come to Karta to help you, but just before I set out, the villages in the fiefdom were suddenly caught in flames, and several villages were burned down, and I led people there, and from the mouth of the lucky escapees, I heard the news about Ryan, who said: Ryan had come to the village with the alien, but it was after the fire fell, and they left shortly after. He paused, "So, I suspect that Ryan may be in the territory of Shotoku." ”

They're going to look for the dragon, Horn thought to himself. "Duke Redwing, please tell me a precise time. ”

The old nobleman thought for a moment. "I heard that it only took you one night to capture Karta, and so did the city of Shotoku, if the news is true, about the night you captured Karta, or a day or two after that. ”
