Louis County, in Hardy's study.

He opened the letter.

Inside is a font that I haven't seen before...... He looked at it, and it was the text of the Netherlands.

Generally speaking, Francis is spoken in all countries, and Hardy himself has never learned this script.

Fortunately, there are many people who know Dutch script, and Petola is one of them.

I have to say that people still have a great advantage when they live for a long time.

Petora is fluent in most languages and scripts of the human world.

"Lord Hardy, by the time you read this letter, I may have had an accident. I don't know if I'm dead or if I'm restricted from transmitting information to the outside world. ”

Petola read the contents of the letter in a nice voice.

"Recently, a lot of strange things have happened in the city where I'm stationed. At first, I thought it was the cause of the evil god fragments, but when I found out halfway, I also confirmed that the evil god fragments had a great influence on them, but when I continued to investigate, I found that behind these strange things, it seemed that they were all man-made. ”

"At the same time, my investigation has also encountered great obstacles. I felt that there was an unknown force interfering with my actions. I suspect that demon spies are operating in it, and I also feel as if I am in danger. ”

"This letter is one of the ones I left behind, the same letter, I also wrote four more and sent it to someone I considered reliable. If you read my letter and think we're friends, could you try to help me? If I'm dead, protect my family. If I don't die, please, get me out! ”

"Your good friend, Patel Gustaf."

Petola folded the letter and smiled, "This guy is quite interesting. ”

"Very sincerely." Hardy nodded.

It is human nature to be afraid of death, and Gustav is young, in his prime and capable, it is indeed a pity to die.

Petola's hand shook, and the letter paper was burned to ashes.

Her mouth opened slightly, and the ashes were blown out of the window by her, drifting in the wind.

"Since this letter can be included in my official documents, it seems that there is a special intelligence organization that has infiltrated our city." Hardy smiled and said, "It can even have infiltrated my lord's mansion, you go check it and uproot it." ”

"Okay."

Petora gave Hardy a flying kiss and then twisted her waist and left.

Not long after Petola left, Shalina trotted in.

When Guivernier returned to Cottamashire, Shalina took over the position of 'secretary'.

It was up to her to convey most of Hardy's orders and requests.

At the same time, he also helped Hardy deal with some simple government affairs.

The girl ran to Hadi, pressed her chest, calmed the trembling waves, and said, "Hadi, they're back." ”

"They ......" Hardy was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "Is it Sophie?" ”

The girl nodded vigorously.

In fact, the transport ship at sea had already returned, but it was only a group of migrant workers who brought it back.

Sophie, Ryan, Karina, and others were withdrawn from the land with a large army.

Because of the change of terrain and the influence of the evil god shards, they encountered a lot of trouble along the way.

The road that could have been walked back in two months was dragged on for nearly four months.

The food is almost gone.

Hardy rode his horse and his own soldiers out to the gates of the city, and then saw a long serpentine army marching towards it.

Before Hardy could find Sophie, he saw a 'dark shadow' approaching the ground.

After a while, the black shadow threw herself into his arms and turned into a mature beauty with a thousand charms.

It's Sophie.

"I miss you so much." Sophie hugged Hardy deadly.

The surrounding soldiers looked away, and they didn't see anything.

After a long moment, she let go of Hardy, but still looked at him steadily, her eyes full of tenderness.

It didn't take long for the vanguard of the army to come to the city gates.

Sophie finally put away her tender and sweet appearance and became serious.

Because the three people who are at the forefront are Joyna, Ryan and Karina.

Hardy stood to greet them.

It was Joyna who rushed up first, and she hugged Hardy for a while before reluctantly letting go.

She misses her man too.

Next was Karina, as Ryan was there and Sophie was there, and she just gave a symbolic hug to Hardy and didn't say much.

It's just that her eyes are slightly red, and her emotions are obviously very excited.

Eventually, Hardy and Ryan hugged and punched each other in the chest.

This is the usual habit of the two brothers.

"I'm glad you don't have anything." Ryan patted Hardy on the shoulder: "I talked to my mother a lot along the way, she has become gentler and happier than before, you can see, she is very happy, thank you." ”

Ryan is genuinely grateful to Hardy.

Thanks to Hardy for taking the initiative to quit in the messy relationship between the three, and also to Hardy for 'saving' his mother who was full of resentment.

Seeing him like this, Hardy smiled and said, "Then you must not call your stepfather to listen." ”

Ryan's eyes widened.

Hardy was overjoyed to see this.

Just didn't expect it, and then Ryan laughed and shouted, "Father, do you want me to change my surname to Hardy!" ”

Now it was Hardy's turn to be stunned.

He was just joking, but looking at Ryan's appearance, there seemed to be signs of seriousness.

At this time, Sophie, who was next to her, heard the conversation between the two and smiled: "I also think this is a good idea!" ”

Although most of the two mothers and sons joked, they were actually a little sincere.

Hardy was horrified when he heard this, and immediately waved his hand and said, "I admit defeat, I can't afford to play." ”

The crowd burst out laughing.

Hardy then found the undead commanders, arranged their garrisons and future affairs, and took the Ryan and the others back to the lord's mansion.

By the way, the other three members of the Brave Squad are also among them.

After coming to the lord's mansion, they naturally also found the World Tree seedlings, but they were protected by the elves to death, and several people were not qualified to come forward to check them out.

Only Hardy is now eligible to enter within twenty meters of the World Tree.

But it was a small thing, and then a lively banquet ensued.

Everyone had a great time eating and chatting.

Although the threat of the demon race has not been completely eliminated, the hidden danger and influence of the evil god fragment may become greater and greater.

But at least for now, they are the winners, they are the survivors, and that's something to be happy about.

At the end of the banquet, Hardy looked at the Brave Squad and said, "I have prepared a small manor for each of you, and the property rights are all yours, just fill in your name." Moreover, the manors of the five of you are next to each other, and you can visit each other as guests on weekdays. ”

Ryan and Karina didn't find it strange.

After all, they knew that Hardy would not forget the two of them.

But the other three members of the Brave Team froze.

The nobles they met along the way, except for a very small number of them who were kind, all had all kinds of malice and difficulties towards them, both openly and covertly.

Even if you help them complete some tasks and solve some problems, the reward they get is some supplies and a little money for a small fight.

And Hardy is here, directly to the manor.

What a concept!

After a while, it was the magical girl Nini who first recovered from the shock, after all, the magician's mental power was more tenacious: "Really? Lord Hardy! (End of chapter)
