Roger's process of gathering troops was very smooth, although the battle in the first layer of the ruins lasted longer, the power of the demons was far less powerful than in the second layer of the ruins, and several bigwigs, including the poisonous widow and the gold pointer, suppressed the scene here. Coupled with the fact that the troops sent by the Night's Watch are also planning to sweep away the demonic forces in the nearby cities, the pressure they have to face is not too great.

Except for the new king of bandits, whether he wants to or not, he must continue this ancient tradition, the bosses of other forces are not willing to gamble their lives with that vague hope, but they don't mind standing outside cheering, let alone after the treasure is really opened, depending on the situation.

Roger certainly knows about this situation, but he is not panicking now. Except for El's bastard, who seemed to see the clue, the other robbers couldn't have had the imagination to guess that Adrian's treasure would be put into a small money bag by themselves.

Even if there is an ambush among the cronies he has brought with him, it will take some time to pass on this information under his surveillance, and Roger expects that at least until he leaves the Devil's Throat, those with bad intentions will not dare to act rashly. It's not that they don't dare to attack themselves, but they are afraid of El's elite troops.

Some people may think of buying Eyre, but they can't afford to pay that price. Does El need money now? Of course not, otherwise he would have just snatched it now. What these Istalens need is security, and they have to afford the safety of a convoy of refugees in the brown hills. And with regard to this promise of security, no one is qualified to make such a promise except Roger, who is the new king of robbers.

So Roger now makes no secret of his dependence on Istalen's forces, and now it's his turn to play the trick. As for what happened after leaving the ancient ruins, Roger thought that he would definitely be able to control the situation by then, after all, his status as the king of bandits was not in vain.

The Istalens were desperate to "go home", the robbers were desperate to "share the cake", and the Night's Watch were not willing to continue this senseless "sweep", and everyone was not in the mood to continue wasting time in the ruins, so they all accelerated their pace. But when they returned to the Night's Watch Fortress, they found that the gates of the fortress were closed, the city was brightly lit, and the remaining Night's Watch warriors were all preparing for battle. 【Starter】

"What's going on?" El couldn't help but ask the Night's Watch officer who was following him. General Hank had sent a force of 500 men to clean up the ruins of demonic power, which had been slightly damaged after the battle, but still maintained the integrity of the organization. The commander of this force is a knight named Kennan, who is only in his twenties and looks about the same age as Roger, but he is extremely stubborn, or rigid.

From the departure to the way back, Kenan has always kept a straight face, rarely talking to Roger, but he has a relatively gentle attitude towards El, who is also a regular soldier, and when he heard El's question, he nodded and said: "It must be General Hank who received the warning signal from the scout troops, and there may be a demonic movement elsewhere in the ruins." ”

"No, no, no, I don't think it's that simple. You see, the demons behind us have been cleaned up, but they still have no intention of opening the door. El shook his head and said. It wasn't that he hadn't imagined that after Adrian's death, something would happen to the Night's Watch as well. But now that the Night's Watch was standing beside him, he was secretly observing Kenan's expression along the way, making sure that there was nothing unusual about this guy, which meant that the Night's Watch hadn't received any news yet, at least for now.

Even if General Hank wants to kill people, he won't even get into it with his own people, right?

"It's okay, I'll go over and shout. Kenan had the same doubts in his mind as El, and he couldn't figure out why the Night's Watch Fortress was closed at this time, but unlike El, he was subconsciously unwilling to speculate about his brother with malice. The most important thing in chivalry is trust, and you must not doubt your comrades without grounds.

With this in mind, Kenan came to the fortress gate with a straight face, cleared his throat and shouted, "Dress, Michelle, what's wrong, why don't you let us into the city?"

There was silence on the walls, and no one answered his question. The robbers outside the city walls also sensed the abnormality of the atmosphere and closed their mouths one after another, and both sides fell into silence. El frowned slightly, pricking up his ears to listen to the sounds behind the walls.

He heard a jumble of footsteps, as if a man was escaping and climbing up the wall, and then a Night's Watch officer peeked out from the wall and shouted at Kenan, "Run......

He only said half a sentence before a flash of fire erupted from behind him, and a sudden fireball slammed into his back, and the violent explosion threw him into the air, and then fell like a broken ragdoll, directly at Kenan's feet.

"Dress!" Kenan's pupils narrowed suddenly, and he subconsciously clenched the hilt of his sword. But just as his blood was surging and he wanted to continue to step forward, El rushed behind him with an arrow, grabbed his shoulder with one hand, and dragged him backwards with an irresistible force.

Kennan had barely been dragged away for less than a second when the ground suddenly shook from where he was standing, and then a sharp ground pierced through the earth, and with a thud, it shot out more than two meters high. If El hadn't dragged him away, Kenan would have been pierced into a blood gourd by this time.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost? Kind of stand up and speak!" Roger snorted coldly, gripped the hilt of his sword, and stomped heavily on the ground, the part where the thorn connected to the ground cracked with a click.

There was a muffled snort from inside the city wall, and after a while, a middle-aged man with a very raw face walked up to the wall, looked down at the people under the city wall with a cold gaze, and said, "You stupid robbers have ruined the great plan laid out by Lord Adrian, this is an unforgivable crime. Now, make atonement with your lives!"

"Who are you, where is General Hank?" Roger asked in a deep voice, looking up into Quezaras' eyes.

"The 'former' commander of this fort, Brown Hank, has been dismissed from his post on suspicion of collusion with the bandits, and I now declare that all Night's Watch units that have colluded with the bandits will be punished for defection!" Quezalas ignored Roger's questioning, and said to himself.

"Wait a minute, General Hank is the supreme commander of this fortress!Why did you dismiss him?" The frightened Kenan couldn't thank El, jumped up and shouted, "I'm Kenan, the Knight Captain of the Third Detachment of the Night's Watch, and I'm ordered to lead the team to clear out the demons entrenched in the ruins, why do you deal with me?"

"You're Kenan? Good, Hank mentioned your name. Quezalas glanced at Kenan with disgust, nodded and said, "I can tell you why, because I'm the watcher of the Gathering Sanctuary, Shadow Councilor Quezalas. If it weren't for you fools who ruined Lord Adrian's great plans, I wouldn't have been able to deal with this trouble myself. I asked Hank to kill everyone who entered the ruins, but he insisted on protecting your troops, so I relieved him of his duties and took command of the fortress. ”

Without waiting for Kenan to speak, Cuezaras sneered and pointed at El behind him and said, "Knight Kenan, I now give you a chance to prove your innocence, as long as you and your men kill these robbers, I will pardon your crimes." Of course, every one of your men needs a human head to atone for their sins!"

Hearing Quezaras' order, Kenan's body stiffened. He struggled to turn his head and found that Roger and El were both looking at him, and couldn't help but squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"You're not going to follow this psychopath's orders, are you?" El asked, tilting his head, patting Kenan on the shoulder, pointing behind him, and whispering, "You know, my command is a regular army. ”

"Do I look like I'm being messed with?" said Roger, snorting coldly.

Both of them were actually joking, because Adrian was killed by them, so they had the capital to joke. El has never been an indecisive person, and since he dares to do such a thing, he is not afraid to take responsibility. As for Roger, when did the robber ever care about the feelings of the bitter master?

The Night's Watch was never taken seriously by El or Roger.

"This guy is obviously sowing discord. Seeing Kennan's tangled expression that he didn't know what to do, El couldn't bear to bully an honest man of the bronze rank again, so he kindly reminded him, "He said this only because he couldn't use the forces of the Night's Watch Fortress." ”

"That's right, Shadow Councillor, I've never heard of such a person in the Society of Truth!" Kenan's eyes lit up when he heard El's prompt. He's a knight, yes, but he's just a little stubborn and not stupid. The object of his allegiance is General Hank, not some green onion that pops up out of nowhere.

"I refuse to carry out your orders unless you can prove your identity, or have General Hank give me orders!" Kenan said aloud to Quezaras with his head up.

"Very well, then you will die with these robbers. Quezalas frowned slightly, and said indifferently. (Go read OM) (Jiangsu.com)
