Next, go your separate ways.

Francois contacts Catalina and Klein; Michael travels to the Mercenary Hall and the Adventure Guild to recruit guards; Annan led the envoy cavalry back to the manor to arrange for them to rest, and then told the ogres and orcs the news of tomorrow's departure.

"I have a sweet tooth." The ogre spoke for no reason, and after Annan looked over, he said, "But I don't mind improving the taste. ”

Annan looked at the ogre's dirtless thick skin thoughtfully, and was about to get a set of armor for the ogre, but at this time he only had time to hurry up with a piece of leather armor to block the stray arrows and cut.

Then Annan went to the study, ready to send a reply to "home"—he could not say nothing, and when the news came back to Osulond, they would surely ask "why didn't you tell us?"

Annan first prepared a letter that recounted the passage in vague terms, but instead of handing it to the fire crow to take back, he wrote a second letter.

The distance between Breez and the Reeves family gave the news a lag of about a month. The longer Annan dragged on, the better prepared he became.

The second letter is to tell "Home" that the Breeze City Rat Man attacks are frequent, and the conspiracies against themselves are endless, don't believe any news other than the fire crow, and don't give the enemy a chance to take advantage of-

Augusta Olmedo's foresight forced Annan to remind his two sisters that perhaps the news that "your brother is dead, and the imposters are swindling" has reached the Reeves family.

When Francois came over, Annan had some loneliness in his eyes: "We can't hide it for too long." ”

"Annan...... My lord. You don't understand the aristocracy. ”

For the first time, Francois honored Annan: "No matter how great the glory is, the most powerful legends will fade, the gods of nature that were once born in the world are now only the goddess of the sea, the emperors who conquered the continent have collapsed and dissipated in a short period of a hundred years, and the names of those rulers and powerful races who ruled the world in ancient times have been annihilated." In the eternal river of time, the continuation of the bloodline is the only truth. ”

"You exist, so the Reeves family exists. If you are no longer Levi, the Reeves family will also be removed from the Twelve Kings of the North...... Why didn't that woman and her adulterer dare kill me? Because as soon as I die, the Lundsey family will be removed, and the wealth and treatment they enjoy will be wiped out. ”

"In order to continue the family, they have no choice but to recognize your identity, and may even combine with you to give birth to the blood of the Reeves family."

"They are my 'sisters.'"

"But that's not true...... "you helped them find the killers, and you gave them supplies to tide them over, and the letters...... Your help to them will be exchanged for gratitude, and it will make false family affection real. ”

This statement eased Annan's anxiety slightly, and Annan then threw Francois out and asked him to get a full body of leather armor for the ogre.

Before Michael returned, Annan went to the City Lord's Mansion first.

Olmedo, who already knew about it, put down his quill pen: "I'm sorry...... Father's intentions were good, but we were all unprepared for what would happen next. ”

I have no intention of having a "Your father is a nezumi spy" with Olmedo, "My father can't be a nezumi spy!" "Your father is really a nezumi spy", Annan went straight to Olmedo for help:

"The nezumi won't tolerate me getting to the territory safely, I need a guard."

"Okay."

After Annan left, Olmedo called his captain of the guard: "You come and lead the team, be sure to escort Annan safely to Glacier Bay, and ......"

Olmedo's blue eyes, the same as his father's, showed a hint of concern.

"Don't choose from your family."

……

Coming out of the City Lord's Mansion, Annan came to the scavenger headquarters.

"The nezumi won't tolerate me getting to the territory safely, I need some help."

The centurion said he would send a squad of scavengers with him—Annan's four temporary teammates.

"The rats gnaw and curse me to sleep every night, and my way to the territory is the perfect time for them to deal with me."

"There are only three centurions in Breeze City, and you actually want to take one?" The centurion complained about Annan's greed, "Well, I'll let a guy go with you." ”

Coming out of the scavenger's headquarters, Annan pondered where else he could get help.

I thought of the elven mentor, but I still gave up.

If he owes favors again, he really has to make a personal promise to pay it off.

On the way, Annan met Michael and led a bald man with a fierce aura, who flapped his plate armor to pay his respects.

Renault, the leader of the Lion Mercenary Regiment, is a master warrior. There are five elite professionals and fourteen professionals in the mercenary group.

Michael commissioned them to escort Annan for 500 gold coins.

Annan thought of where to go next, and agreed with Renault to leave the manor early tomorrow morning, return to the felt tent with Michael and go to the Lawrence's family.

"The nezumi won't tolerate me arriving in the territory safely, and I want to borrow a guard with you."

Annan said, handing the Philosopher's Stone to the old maid.

"What a good boy...... "The old maid looked at Annan with satisfaction.

The old master snorted coldly: "Your sister is still hungry and cold, but you are still playing with magical images? ”

"I don't understand ......"

"Five days ago, a group of cold ghouls attacked the Ausulon Territory." The old maid said gently.

"They didn't tell me ......"

Letters these days are just routine.

"Because they don't want you to worry."

"Does the Lawrence have any caravans led by Ausulond?" Annan asked, and after receiving the reply, he said, "I will send a thousand gold coins later, hoping that the caravan will help deliver the money to the family." ”

"The Twelve Families of the North help each other, leave it to us." The old maid agreed on behalf of the old master.

The old master didn't mind her passover, and snorted coldly: "Boy, what about your territory?" ”

"It's not a thousand gold coins."

"I'm annoyed when I see you, lead a team of guards out from outside!"

Almost accustomed to the temper of the old master, Annan took a group of guards from the stone forest: the elite warriors of the Twenty Force.

As he was leaving with them, Annan suddenly stopped, looking out at the fortress-like Laurence family estate behind him.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking...... Could the old family have known my identity a long time ago? ”

……

The early morning breeze was shrouded in mist, and Annan's mage robe was draped in a fur, looking out at the procession outside the manor.

Two master professionals, dozens of elite professionals, nearly a hundred well-trained soldiers and private soldiers, scavengers, mercenaries, and two elite envoys.

They reflect the identity of the king of the northern and southern realms of Annan, and at the same time, they are also heralding-

How could this pioneering trip be unexpected?
