"This lady, you are the commander-in-chief of the Francis coalition forces?" The young man asked in a whisper.

Lady Sissi nodded lightly and smiled, "I am indeed the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces!" Sissi-Jeanne. ”

"Ma'am, your last name is 'Jeanne'?" The young man pursed his lips with a look of kicking the iron plate, he smiled awkwardly, and then said: "I'm sorry, our Barrick family has some small problems, resulting in not enough military supplies for you Francy, we will make up for them in five days, and the loss of these days is also counted on us." ”

The crowd looked at the young man in amazement.

Hardy never thought that the surname Jeanne, outside of Francy, would be so 'deterrent'.

Lady Sissi quickly came to her senses, and chuckled, "That troubles Your Excellency Bharrick." ”

"No, no, no." The young man waved his hand vigorously and walked away.

It seems like running away.

Deville looked at Madame Sissi with admiration: "Even the Bairic family is under the glory of Jeanne's family. ”

In Deville's view, this is a normal thing.

The descendants of the Holy Maiden of Light should be treated like this.

But to Lady Sissi herself, it seemed a bit ...... Fantasy.

After all, in her cognition, the Jeanna family has been in decline for decades, and it has only recently improved a little, how can it have such a big shock outside.

In fact, this is the darkness under the lamp.

How strong the original generation of 'Jeanne' was, their descendants did not understand at all.

As a commoner woman, she sat on the throne and even 'forced' the royal family to recognize her surname as royal blood.

Then swept through all the lords of Franci, subduing all the men who did not recognize her identity.

Because after the war, Francie's vitality was greatly damaged, and the surrounding countries thought that they could take the opportunity to eat Francie.

A coalition of several nations invaded Francis from all sides.

In the end, they were all beaten back by the first Jeanne.

There was even a country called Kaldor, who was almost hit in the capital by her.

If it weren't for the fact that the first Jeanne was in labor and had to retire, it is estimated that she would have been able to plant the blue battle flag on the enemy's palace.

Because of this, the Cardons loved and hated Franci, and from time to time they made trouble with Franci, and even invented the reverse V gesture to insult the Francians.

But...... Hardy remembers that the Kaldos are pro-Southern, and if you count the time, they should be almost there.

The two rivals got together and had a lot of good things to watch.

A few people returned to the castle and chatted casually for a while, and then it became clear.

It turned out that the people of the Barrick family somehow learned the contents of the letter sent by Deville to the commander-in-chief, and then the Balik people, who had just finished unloading the 'supplies', immediately came to look for trouble.

After hearing this, Mrs. Sissi said apologetically, "I'm sorry to offend you." ”

Deville shook his head: "This is also what I should do, after all, you have come from afar, and you can't let you suffer." ”

For a time, the guests and hosts were happy.

After chatting for a while, they separated.

Lady Sissi returned to her room and talked to Alice about women.

Hardy borrowed a book from the housekeeper and flipped through it.

It's a travelogue, the writing is very poor, it's dry, and it's not interesting at all.

But...... This is the current state of this world, this era.

Knowledge is almost entirely in the hands of the aristocracy, and the level of writing ability of ordinary people cannot be said to be average, but can only be said to be almost none.

So, even such a book can be regarded as a rare good book.

Hardy looked at it for a while, it was getting dark, he really felt sleepy, and was about to go to sleep, when he heard a quick knock on the door.

He opened it and saw Deville standing outside, his face full of panic.

Hardy asked, "What's wrong?" Ms. Deville. ”

"Oh no, something big is wrong."

"Speak slowly."

At this time, hearing the movement, Mrs. Sissi and Alice next door also walked out.

Deville took a deep breath and said, "The people of the Barrick family are dead. ”

"Dead? The one we saw at noon? ”

Deville nodded: "Yes, not only him, but his entourage is also all dead, dozens of people, none of them are alive." ”

Hardy's eyes froze, and he finally knew why Deville was so flustered.

The death of dozens of people at the same time is not a trivial matter, and it involves the descendants of a large nobleman.

Hardy thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to the scene to see that all the members of the Order are staying in the castle and guarding the passages to protect Lady Sissi." ”

More than a dozen knights around him nodded their heads again and again.

Alice immediately went back to her room, put on her armor, and picked up her shield.

Hardy then said to Deville, "Send all your fighting forces to guard the castle." ”

"No, I don't need to." DeVille whispered.

"If they dare to kill the people of the Balik family, they will naturally dare to kill the people of your Pell family."

Deville made a look at it and said, "I see." ”

After Hardy made the arrangement, he immediately rode to the scene of the crime.

It was a medium-sized estate.

The Barrick family is very rich, so the security measures are actually very good, and there are quite a few people in the entourage.

But...... It's all dead.

What organization can kill so many people silently?

Hardy thinks that he can also kill, and now his strength is very strong, as long as the form of the Nightmare Knight can be seen, there is no problem at all in killing ordinary people and some low-level professionals.

But quietly, this is more difficult.

Unless a lot of people collaborate.

Hardy rushed to the scene.

There are many corpses in the garden.

Hardy stood in front of the most conspicuous corpse, for this corpse was the most ornately dressed.

The young man of the Barrick family was lying on the ground at this time, his eyes wide open, and he did not bat at death.

His heart was pierced, and looking at the wound, it should be an iron gun.

And around, there are dense corpses.

At this time, there were already soldiers of the Pell family at the scene to maintain order, and one of the officers came over and said: "Your Excellency, according to our preliminary investigation, all the dead were killed without resistance. ”

"Toxin?" Hardy asked.

The officer shook his head: "It's more like being controlled, and I can't move." ”

Hardy shook his head: "Unlikely, it's dozens of people." If you want to control so many people at the same time, you can't do it if you're not a master-level sorcerer. ”

The officer spread his hands and said that he did not know.

Hardy leaves the garden and walks around the manor to see if there are any clues.

Then the more I walked, the more suspicious I became.

Because he found that in the fields inside the manor, many gray orcs died.

But none of these bodies were counted among the dead.

Because in the eyes of the people of the Ajga Empire, the gray orcs cannot be called human beings at all.

Hardy walked away for a while, and suddenly felt a force burst out in the distance.

He looked up, and after half a second, his eyes widened.

For he saw in the distance a huge pale gray circular enchantment, which opened.

The light gray enchantment is generally the magical attribute of the god of space.

And the god of space...... In the background, it is he who brings the players into this game world.

Moreover, that magical aura was all too familiar to him.

Copy!

The location of the gap...... Gardes Castle.

Hardy only thought for half a second, and immediately turned into a Nightmare Knight, and sped at full speed in the direction of the castle.
