Hearing Lori's screams, Rog, Antonio, and Catherine hurried to the bushes that made the sound, and when they separated from the bushes to look at them, they saw Lilith, who had turned into a little owl, with her little head shrunk with her back against the bushes, and a gray medium-sized owl was rubbing her head against her.

"Nasty, don't come here, you big stupid bird!" the little furball slapped the gray owl's head with his wings while dodging, but the gray owl rubbed against her without hesitation, and the intimate look made the three people present look at each other and laugh.

"Looks like the little villain has met his own Greybird Prince. Rogge smiled and took a puff on his cigar and said to the two.

"What a gray bird prince, it's a nasty big stupid bird!" the little furball retorted loudly when he heard his words, and the gray owl also raised his head at the same time and looked at the three people with a vigilant gaze, and subconsciously spread his wings to protect the little furball behind him.

"This prince is still very chivalrous, isn't he, Captain?" Rogge smiled and turned back to Antonio, and the knight leader smiled approvingly and said, "That's right, it's still a good match for Lilith!"

"Don't you guys there, it's annoying!" the little furball came out from under the gray owl's wings, flapped its wings and flew to Rog's shoulder, and shouted to them in annoyance.

The gray owl looked at the little furball with a puzzled gaze, and hovered above Rogge for a moment in the air, seeing that several humans had no intention of attacking the little furball, he hesitated for a moment and landed on Rogge's shoulder, and pressed his body tightly to the side of the little furball.

"Don't follow me, stay away from me!" The little furball pouted the little eagle in annoyance and glanced at it, and moved its little ass to the side, the gray owl persistently put its body up again, and the little furball raised its little paw and kicked it, and the gray owl did not move at all, tilting its head to look at her.

"What a big stupid bird!" the little furball pouted in disgust, and slipped from the back of Rog's neck to his other shoulder, and the gray owl fluttered its wings over Rogge's head and landed beside her.

"It's annoying, don't follow me!" the little furball cried out in distress, turned around and jumped into Rog's hat, the gray owl looked at the place where she disappeared with a blank face, and looked at it for a long time, not understanding where she had gone.

"Hey, brother," Rogge said with a hand that the grey owl stood on his hand, holding it up in front of him and laughing, "Do you like that little villain very much? Don't worry, you have to take your time, first you have to tell us your name!"

The gray owl looked at Rogge with round eyes, looking ignorant, and Rogge smiled when he saw this, and said, "Okay, I'll give you a name, just call ...... Gray!"

The gray owl tilted his head and thought for a while, as if he agreed with the name, squinted his eyes and cooed twice, Rogge smiled and touched its plush head and said, "Okay, Gray, you can follow us in the future, so that you have a chance to pester the little villain." ”

"Nasty bad wolf, why keep it, it's so annoying!" Little Furball protested yelling in Rogge's hat.

"That's a good question," said Rogge, smiling at Antonio and Catherine, smiling at Antonio and Catherine, "you're annoying too, why do I keep keeping you, little villain?"

Ignoring Lilith's protests, he turned back to the river with the gray owl Gray, and Antonio and Catherine followed, seeing him tell Locke to let go of the bound soldiers, and at the same time tell the lantern god to prepare the dimensional passage and prepare to leave the place.

The group passed through the dimensional passage to Aldan, another town closest to Dixon, when it was almost dusk, and everyone standing on the main road outside the town saw from a distance that many farmers were loading the grain they had harvested for the day in the wheat fields on both sides of the road, ready to transport it home.

"It seems that the town of Ardan has not been affected by the plague!" said Catherine to Rog with great joy.

"It's hard to say, at least it's a little bit better than the two towns we've seen before. Rogge replied cautiously, and he led the group down the main road into the town, as they had expected, life in the town was very normal, many shops were packing up and preparing to close, and the people in the streets were hurrying home for dinner with their families.

"I hope this place stays like this, and doesn't get hit by the plague. Catherine whispered expectantly as she watched the bustling crowd on the street, and Tully, who walked beside her, bowed slightly in agreement, and had the same hope in her heart.

The group inquired along the road and came to a hotel in the town, the boss saw a dozen guests rushing in and hurriedly greeted him, Rogge asked him to arrange a place for the rescued woman, and then booked four more rooms, one for each of the three men, and Catherine and Tali shared a room.

Looking at the large handful of silver coins handed over by Rogge, the boss was so happy that he hurriedly instructed the clerk to lead the guests to their respective rooms, and after arranging the accommodation, Rogge gave him another ten silver coins and asked him to prepare today's dinner, asking for as much as possible.

The boss hurriedly turned around and left, Rogge and Antonio checked the rooms of the rescued women in turn, and Rogge said to the rescued women: "You stay tonight, if you have no other relatives to run to, the head of the regiment and I will help you find a place to live tomorrow, so that you can settle in the town." ”

After saying goodbye to the women who had thanked him repeatedly, he and Antonio went to the corridor on the second floor, where they stopped by the window at the end of the corridor, leaning against the wall and blowing the night breeze outside the window, and Antonio asked, "Have you been doing this for the past ten years?"

"How?" asked Rogge, smoking a cigar and looking out the window at the night.

"Spend a lot of money on helping the poor and needy. Antonio looked at his weathered face and said, "The money you just handed over to the hotel owner is enough for many people to earn for half a year." ”

"Oh, you're right," Rogge smiled and spat out a smoke ring out the window, "I've been such a loser for the past ten years, except for the part that the little bad bird eats more and takes more, the rest is basically thrown to these people, and it's not my money anyway!"

"Huh?" Antonio shrugged his eyebrows meaningfully, and Rog smiled slyly, "You know, it doesn't matter if someone like me saves money or not, as long as I need them, the lords will always give them away, although sometimes they are not very willing. ”

"I seem to have found another crime. Antonio chuckled softly, half-jokingly.

"Captain," said Rogge, waving his cigar nonchalantly, "you have enough charges in your hands to grind me into minced meat, so what's the point of robbing some money?

"You can get a big bounty, right?" Antonio laughed when he heard this, "It's so easy for you to make money in this business!"

"Well, would the Captain be interested in taking off his armor and putting on a cloak to be a bad guy who drinks bad wine and eats sausages and robs houses?" asked Rog with a smile as he took his cigar in his mouth and looked at Antonio's smiling face.

"Maybe one day, I'll be like you say. Antonio turned his gaze out the window, a hint of anticipation and uncertainty about the future, Tully's smiling face reflected in his eyes, and his mind imagined wandering with her in the wilderness.

"You're always welcome to join!" Rogge patted him on the shoulder, smiled and turned away.

He pushed open the door of his room, and was about to lie down and rest for a while to go down to supper, but as soon as he entered the door, he heard shouts from inside, and he looked into the room, and saw the little furball jumping on the bed to avoid the gray owl Gray, and the two owls were bouncing around the bed, making the bed full of feathers.

"Well, it seems that now is not a good time to lie down and sleep. Rogge shrugged his shoulders and turned to close the door, and walked towards the hall on the first floor, when he reached the staircase on the second floor, he suddenly heard a ghostly voice sound from behind him: "Lone wolf......"

Rogge turned his head sharply and saw a man in a black cloak emerge from the black mist, he took off the hood on his head to reveal a familiar and hideous face, Rogge's eyes widened in surprise and said in surprise: "Hunter, are you still alive?"

"I didn't expect to see you alive. Hunter, the leader of the Void Hunters, nodded meaningfully, looked down at the empty sleeve of his left arm, and said, "In the battle of the Hydra's Lair, I lost a lot, but at least I still left this life. ”

"So, did you come to me tonight to make me pay for your arm?" Rogge looked at him casually, but his ears listened vigilantly to the movements around him, and his nose gently sniffed the changes in the smell in the air, in case someone sneaked up on him.

"Don't worry, lone wolf, I'm not here to be your enemy. Hunter keenly noticed Rogge's twitching nose, and he smiled lightly, "I think you and your sworn enemy vampires can be allies, and we may not be allies, right?"

"You'd better not remind me of that, an alliance with Elizabeth is a failed decision for me!" Rogge frowned, pretending to look at him with displeasure, and added, "Of course, it was still very successful in not letting your master William get the holy weapon. ”

"Master William knows that you are very annoyed by Elizabeth's betrayal, and in fact he is also angry that Elizabeth took advantage of the fire, so he asked me to help you, and we can work together against Elizabeth!" said Hunter, raising his remaining right hand into a fist.

"And then?" Rogge laughed mockingly, "William will take advantage of the fire and stab me like Elizabeth, and then Elizabeth will run to convince me to join forces against William with the same words as before, and repeatedly, are you taking me for a fool?"

"No, lone wolf, we will not directly intervene in the battle between you and Elizabeth, but the battle between you and Elizabeth has entered our territory, and Lord William appreciates your intelligence more than Elizabeth, so he is willing to give you a hint. ”

Hunt's words made Rogge laugh as if he was listening to a joke, and he waved his hand and laughed: "Come on Hunter, are you kidding me? I haven't heard that William was named King of Erus, and as for his appreciation of me, then I thank him for his insight!"

"Believe it or not, it's your business," Hunter looked at the mocking expression on Rogge's face, and said calmly without hurrying or being angry, "If you want to find Elizabeth, then go to Fort St. Peter!"
