097. Doubts
"It's too grinding. ”
Levi shook his head and casually threw the corpse aside, his face a little regretful.
He is no longer what he was when he first came into this world, and it is no longer difficult to stab someone else's throat with his own hands.
"What about you, why don't you tell me?"
Levi set his eyes on the next escapee, who immediately became nervous, "Yes, yes, I'm ......"
"Forget it, I don't know if what you said is true or not, so let's ask the next one. ”
He froze for a moment, and Levi's arcane blade quickly slashed across his throat, and his voice suddenly became a whimper.
"My lord, you ask me, I tell the truth, I can swear by the gods I believe in!"
Levi's face changed when he heard the word "god", and he directly sent the secret blade into the chest of the third person.
As an intruder, these are the two words he hates the most.
In a matter of moments, all three escapees were swiftly executed, and the last one was on his knees trembling, as if he had met his fate, but he didn't know what to do.
However, Levi stood up and ignored him, handed the arcane blade to Valila beside him, and looked up at all the humans.
"As you should know, it is merciful to give death so painfully to those who have escaped. I can torture them to death if I want. ”
"This is the first time that a runaway has been spotted, and I can forgive you for not being sensible, but if there is still someone among you who wants to escape next time, it won't end so easily. ”
Valila returned the wiped blade of mysticism, and Levi fiddled with it casually, his eyes looking around the human faces with indifference, some scared, some panicked, some dodging, and a few some gloating.
"From now on, everyone will be divided into teams of ten people, and each team will elect a captain and a vice-captain, who will monitor the situation in the team every day and report any changes immediately. ”
"If there is another escape and other bad things, everyone in the whole team will be dealt with, the captain will be severely punished, and the vice captain will take the captain's place!"
Levi didn't want to spend too much energy on these people, so he simply used the joint sit to let them supervise each other.
"Finally, given that no one has leaked the word about this escape, ten lashes each will be given as a reward for your unity. ”
As soon as these words came out of the unanimous panic on the faces of all the humans, the soldiers were better, and those ordinary men and women involuntarily began to talk.
"Shut up!"
With a clang, Nitos next to him pulled out the long sword in his hand, and these undisciplined newcomers made him very embarrassed.
Levi chuckled and didn't care, picked up the last person kneeling on the ground and threw it over,
"If you are dissatisfied, seek revenge on this escapee. ”
Then he turned and walked away, and the last escapee was immediately caught, and stones and sticks were thrown on him one after another, and the miserable sound suddenly resounded in the camp, but was soon drowned out by the shouting and scolding.
At this time, Valila followed Levi's side and whispered, "Master, if you are in a bad mood, let me help you release." ”
Then she moved her belt, revealing a piece of rattan wrapped around it.
Levi couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he saw Valila's movements, and his originally cold mood was instantly much lighter.
He didn't say anything, reached out and rubbed Valika's head for the first time, turned around and gathered the dark elves and minotaurs and headed out into the mountains to hunt.
The corpses and souls needed by the Wood Plane are not only the souls of intelligent races, but also the souls of Warcraft and even ordinary beasts, but they are only required in large quantities.
At the same time, Levi was also very interested when he heard Lu Dan's description of the large group of demonic beast wolves here, and there were some forest races in the depths.
And when Levi and his people returned to nature, the Rhine and Joseph families were boiling.
......
"Desai, you idiot!"
Celtic slammed the Doto report on the table, angrily toppling everything to the ground.
For a day and a night, there was no movement at all, and there was no need to think much about Desai must have been ambushed by the Joseph family.
"Layton, this old thing, must have been premeditated!"
Celtic slammed his fist on the table, but after the rage, he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
According to the news from the town of Onkri, they found a large amount of blood at the junction of the territory, but no bodies were found.
And until now, there were no signs of activity in the armies of several towns of the Joseph family.
"Could it be that the Joseph family is working with whom?"
Celt felt that there was something strange in these things, and then unconsciously remembered his sister.
He pulled out the report he had asked his subordinates, the Shadow Hand to investigate, and it contained soldiers in dark gold armor, archers hiding in the shadows, mages in red robes, ruthless Dix, and an arrogant young lieutenant......
There is no description of Caterina in it.
Celt felt like his head was a mess, with only Dix being the obvious target, and the rest were a blur.
He suddenly felt like he was thinking of something, but at that moment there was the sound of footsteps outside the castle's study.
"Knock Knock"
There was a knock on the door, and the butler's voice rang out, "Lord Baron, the Joseph family has sent a knight to deliver a letter declaring war. ”
"Declaration of war?!"
A sharp voice burst out of Celtic's throat in an instant, anger, confusion, and rhetorical questions at the same time.
"Yes, Lord Baron, the knight brought you a word for Baron Layton......"
The butler hesitated, obviously this was not a good word.
"Baron Layton said, though he is also a nobleman, he is very different from you. The Joseph family will follow traditional etiquette even when going to war, so please hide the gold coins of the Rhine family so that you can buy your life from him. ”
The housekeeper tried to calm his emotions so that the words did not fluctuate.
At this time, he suddenly missed the old butler, and if that gentleman was there, he would not have to do these things.
However, when he said these words, Celt did not explode as he had imagined, and the entire study fell into complete silence.
"I see, you go down. ”
A moment later, Celtic's voice rang out, and the butler wiped the sweat from his forehead, answered, and then withdrew.
At this time, Celt in the study was not furious, but leaned back in his chair, frowning and falling into deep thought.
"Declaration of war, is the old guy Leighton sanctimon, or does he have no idea about the affairs of Doto Town?"
Celt instinctively felt the latter, because no matter how hypocritical Layton was, he wouldn't have sent a declaration of war after two conflicts.
At this time, he remembered the return of the Shadow Hand, and the Dicks recorded in it did not seem to be controlled in the slightest, and everything was in his control.
Maybe Dix is secretly developing his own power from Layton?
For a while, Celtic had countless thoughts in his mind, but no matter how he thought about it, the war between the Rhine and the Joseph family was inevitable.
