Old John took a sip of the oak cup, and the inferior mare's milk wine was so pungent and astringent that he choked and coughed repeatedly.

Wiping his mouth indiscriminately, Old John smiled dryly: "100,000 Ant-Man attacking the city! ”

"I don't have anything to say. Barrett gave Old John a faint look.

Old John smiled awkwardly, "I'm not trying to liven up the atmosphere." ”

No one paid any attention to Old John, just sullenly drinking. The atmosphere of war can put a lot of stress on most people, but not these battle-hardened veterans. Compared to ordinary farmers, the mercenaries would never believe that Ant-Man could take the town of Blackcastle, the thirty-meter-high walls are strong and heavy, more than 70,000 of the hundreds of thousands of people have been trained as militias, and the town is full of supplies, as well as farmland and water. As long as you don't go out to fight those Ant-Men, there is no possibility that Blackcastle will be lost.

What really bothered the veterans was that Captain Nelson wasn't there, Lady Lilia wasn't there, and Victor wasn't there. And Victor's lords have been divided into three groups, the war bear mercenaries and a small number of guards, the villagers of the brick kiln village led by Dean are a group, and the rest of the people are around the village chief of Morin.

"The hearts of the people are scattered!, the team is not easy to lead!" said the one-eyed dragon Gru.

Old John glanced at Gru, "What's the matter, Gru, are you going to stand up, head?"

"I've got the skills! I just can't get used to those guys eating inside and out! If it weren't for the fact that we'd fought to the death, they would still be able to sit here in peace?" Gru said hatefully.

Everyone was also depressed, they didn't expect that a few days after fleeing to Blackcastle Town, these people began to make their own little calculations, especially the villagers of the brick kiln village led by Dean, who were particularly courteous to Haig. A blind man can see that the York family intends to take in these people.

"It's not surprising that the foundation of adults is still too shallow. Especially since the adults and Lilia are not here, and Nelson's kid doesn't know where to go. However, this is also a good thing, when the insect plague passes, it is clear that those people are not trustworthy. Barrett said lightly.

Unlike the villagers, the War Bear mercenaries are more loyal to Victor, not only because Lilia is Victor's personal maid, but Victor has earned their respect and trust after persevering. For soldiers, the partners who are worthy of being entrusted with their backs are the most important, not to mention that Victor, as a lord, did not use them as cannon fodder, which moved the War Bear mercenaries.

Gru said, "I don't know, what's going on with the head。。。。。。?" ”

"Nonsense! Nelson's bastard doesn't know how to hide in that corner and have a good time, and this isn't the first time! Besides, even you shit has escaped, what accident can Nelson have!"

Linda's eyes widened with anger, but there was worry in her eyes that could not be concealed. Victor had already summoned Lilia through Black Feather, and he was still wandering around the territory. Lilia is also taken to Rose Manor by Nicole. Now, only Nelson's whereabouts are unknown. Although, in the past, when he was on a mission, Nelson broke away from the team more than once in order to divert the enemy, but when was that time when everyone didn't worry?

Barrett pondered for a moment and said, "We were able to run out thanks to the Dust Falcon to show the way, and Nelson also had two Dust Falcon with him, so with his strength, nothing will happen." ”

In the Ant Plague, the War Bear mercenaries miraculously withdrew, and only two members died in the beacon tower. The fact that they were able to escape this time was one thing, but the main thing was that the two Dust Falcon showed them the way. The militia and ordinary guards who retreated first had no such luck, and they lost almost half of their manpower. On the contrary, most of the women and children who did not have the ability to protect themselves escaped.

Linda smiled reluctantly, and now she had nothing else to do but wait. The House of York has sealed off the town of Blackcastle, and no one can leave without their permission.

A thin little girl squeezed in from Gru's side, her eyes fixed on the black beans on her plate.

Gru shouted, "Little girl, what are you squeezing? Go and play. ”

"One-eyed dragon, what are you shouting!" Linda said softly, pulling the little girl over to her mother's heart, "Are you hungry?" ”

The little girl nodded, grabbed a handful of black beans and stuffed them into her pocket, and rubbed her little face on Linda's cheek before bouncing away.

Seeing that Linda's face was a little complicated, Old John sighed: "Now, there are many such orphans, let's let the church take her away." ”

Linda glanced deeply at Old John, then at Barrett, and made a gesture covertly, and the mercenaries around him suddenly understood, and they all drank and chatted casually.

After a while, old John patted Barrett on the shoulder and shouted, "Old ghost, I'm going to pee and give me a hand." ”

"Go yourself!"

"Bastard, I'm a leg. ”

"I think you've drunk too much, so forget it, I'll take you for a ride. ”

The two old mercenaries staggered towards the place where no one was. Turning to a corner, they saw an old farmer with gray hair.

"I seem to have seen you, you are a villager of Group 4. Barrett squinted.

Balor nodded, "My name is Denver, Lord Barrett. I also have a name, and it's Barol. ”

"Barol, you, aren't you dead?" said old John as he looked at Barol in disbelief, he had seen Barol's body, and this man was not Baror's appearance.

"I'm not dead! You're seeing my double, and now I'm working for Lord Victor. Barol grinned, he was looking for Barrett, and he called Old John to prove his identity, because Old John knew who he was.

Barrett glanced at Old John, who whispered an explanation of Barroll's affairs.

"Who the hell are you, what did you want that little imp to call us for?" Barrett asked coldly.

"I'm now an agent under Lord Victor, and the only people who know my identity are Lord Victor, Lady Lilia, and Captain Nelson. Barol said calmly: "Don't you think it's strange that all of us who have withdrawn from Victor have been gathered together, and no one has been drafted into the militia to eat and drink all day long?"

Barrett and Old John looked at each other, "What do you mean?"

"The area assigned to us is not accessible to outsiders, and most of the people around us are the Yorks! Actually, we are all under surveillance! And Lady Lilia is under house arrest!"

The old mercenaries looked at each other in shock, and after being reminded by Balor, they found that the area where they were placed was surrounded by a city wall at the back, a police station on the left, a barracks on the right, and a road in front. The sheriff also specially told them that it was a time of war, and it was not allowed to run around, otherwise it would be dealt with by military law! This kind of request was originally normal, after all, the town of Blackburg is very crowded now, and it is easy to make trouble when you walk around at will, but now it seems that the Yorkie family is deliberately isolating them.

"Why did the Yorks do this, is Lilia in danger?" Barrett asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know!" Barol shook his head, "I don't care, I just want to inform Lord Victor about the situation here." I need your help!"

"Why should we believe you, and how can we help you?" old Johansen looked Barol up and down with cold eyes, like an old wolf devouring people.

"You don't need to believe me, I will definitely tell you the information I transmitted, and you decide for yourself whether you want to pass it on to Lord Victor!" Baror: "As for the method, I know you have the Dust Falcon trained by Lord Victor。。。。。。 ”

"The Dust Falcon can fly back to the hill camp, but Lord Victor is certainly not there. Your method won't work!" Barrett interrupted Barrol.

Get the Dust Falcon back to the hill camp, Barrett can do it. In fact, most War Bear mercenaries will give this command. Now, they can even let the Dust Falcon lead the way away from Ant-Man. But to make the Dust Falcon fly hundreds of kilometers and find Victor again, Barrett never thought about it.

Barol paused, and said to Barrett, "I noticed that when Lady Lilia went to the Rose Manor, she asked that Karn to do your bidding. You can go to him and try it. ”

"You know a lot of things!?"

Barrett frowned, Karn's identity was unknown even to him. Unexpectedly, this old secret agent who claimed to be Lord Victor's subordinates knew more about the secrets than him, which made Barrett a little unhappy.

Barol smiled, he was the first to know that Victor had dead soldiers under him, and he could tell that the Dust Falcon was trained, and if these dead soldiers couldn't get the word out, then he couldn't do anything, but no matter what, he had to try. Barol believes that if the Dust Falcon can communicate to Lilia, it will definitely be able to communicate to Lord Victor, but everyone doesn't know how to control the Dust Falcon.

"Lord Victor's affairs, we don't need to worry about it. All we have to do is do what we have to do, and when Lady Lilia returns, you can go to her and ask her for my identity, if she wishes to tell you. With that, Barol relayed the information that needed to be passed on to the two old mercenaries.

"That's all, you're not kidding us, are you!?"

Old John looked up and down with suspicion at Baror, the self-proclaimed secret agent, and the information they passed on was something that everyone knew. Shouldn't the news found by the spies be secrets?

For this kind of layman, Barol can only roll his eyes, the secret agent is supposed to pass on some accurate and ordinary information, as long as Lord Victor does not know, it is valuable information.

"Don't reveal my identity, trust me! I'm very useful to adults! Also, tell everyone to be in peace, as long as Victor-sama is around, Lady Lilia will be fine. ”

Watching Baror's back disappear behind the tent, Old John asked Barrett, "What shall we do? Shall we believe him?"

"The information is fine! Barol can be trusted once! He has already given his life to us. Barrett said in a deep voice.

Old John nodded in agreement. Even passing on a word is so careful, it can be predicted that as long as Barol's identity is revealed, he will inevitably be purged by the York family. Since Barol is willing to take such a big risk, he should be able to believe it once.
