On the streets of Zhuoliu Town, the battle provoked by the rat men has come to an end. After losing the rat giant, the remaining rat men began to flee in disorder, seemingly without a commander. Of course, anyone with military knowledge can

No one would think that the rat giant was the leader of these rat men. In Lothar's view, the reason why the rat men stopped attacking was simply because the mastermind behind driving them here had had enough. And in Lyon

After telling him that some ratmen had taken advantage of the war to escape from the blockade of Zhuoliu Town, Earl Montenegro became more certain of this conjecture. Although it seemed that Lothar alone defeated the terrible enemy and led the remaining warriors to recapture the

The entire territory of Zhuoliu Town once again blocked the Ratmen back to the territory of Earl Saron, but the Earl himself knew that he was completely defeated in this raid. No matter who was behind the scenes, he had brought Lothar back.

He became a pawn on his chessboard. As for whether Count Montenegro could defeat the rat giant, it actually didn't matter at all.

In Zhuoliu Town under the setting sun, the red setting sun seems to be comforting the soldiers who shed blood today. The warriors of the Kingdom Knights and Bear Hunters have begun to deal with the corpses scattered in the town. As for the corpses of the rat men,

In order to prevent them from infecting ordinary people, Lothar ordered all of them to be cremated. As for the warriors killed by the Ratmen, although the Count wanted them to be buried according to tradition, no one could guarantee that their bodies would not produce

Due to the plague, Lothar had no choice but to order the corpses of these warriors to be cremated in a bonfire.

"This is the worst battle I have fought in the past few years." Sitting on the side of the street leaning against the wall, Earl Montenegro said to the people sitting next to him in frustration.

"Oh, victory or defeat is something that no one can tell clearly. Although you have fought many battles in the past two years, most of them were only at the hundred-man level. When you fight more big battles, you will know that as long as the war drums are beating,

If you get up, no one can return victorious from the battlefield. In comparison, your performance today is worthy of the reputation of an army commander. I believe that His Majesty will be happy for you when he hears what you have done." Sit down.

Leon, who was beside Lothar, smiled and took a sip of the wine in the wine bag and said with relief.

"Maybe. Although I won the battle this time, I don't know how many mice took the opportunity to escape. Even if I sent troops to chase them, I might not be able to kill them all. I'm afraid that if this plague spreads to other parts of the kingdom, then I

Lothar will become the sinner of the entire kingdom, and the glory of the Montenegro family will probably be covered in dust." The Earl shook his head, this action affected the injuries on his body and made his expression become ferocious.

"Don't think too much. The source of this plague and its impact cannot be blocked by warriors like you and me. You know the mage who came with me, right? In my opinion, that kid's ability

I'm afraid he will soon be on par with those natural elders among the elves. But even he will be disgraced in order to investigate this plague?" The knight commander smiled and patted Lothar's shoulder lightly and said.

"By the way, that person, where did that mage go after you separated from them?" Lothar asked curiously.

"I think he should have run away with Heather and Hammer's guys by this time. You are right. It's just that Gregory wants to take me down. It's not like you don't have the temper of Archduke Hammer."

"I have learned from you, do you dare to lock Heather up?" Leon said. It has been half a day since they separated, and judging from the knight commander's knowledge, Cheese must have brought Heather and Elsa to join them. So now

It doesn't matter if you tell the other person about Cheese's movements.

"What are you talking about? When did I imprison Heather? She helped me in the early years, how could I imprison her?" Lothar asked doubtfully.

"How is it possible? We found that place when we sneaked in last night. Isn't it at the intersection of King Street and Morningside Avenue?" Leon said. He regarded Lothar's denial as unnecessary sophistry.

"The intersection of King Street and Morningside Avenue? That's the private residence of Baron Gray. I haven't heard anything about Heather since I came here, at least neither Gregory nor Baron Gray told me. Last night Gray

I asked the Baron this question when he left." Lothar turned her head and spoke to Leon seriously.

"Baron Gray's private residence? Before leaving last night? Didn't he die at the Apothecary Association's residence last night? When we entered there, we saw his body lying there naked." The Knight Commander frowned,

He knew that Lothar was not lying, but what Count Montenegro said conflicted with what he had experienced.

"What? Gray was burned to death at the pharmacist's station last night? It's impossible. He had already left Zhuoliu Town with the people from the Pharmacist Association in the evening. It's just a waste of time to stay here any longer. My people saw it with my own eyes

Watch their convoy leave Zhuoliu Town!" Lothar stood up and said seriously.

"Why... But we clearly... last night..." Leon raised his head and looked at the serious face of Earl Montenegro. In his mind, he kept replaying what he saw at the pharmacist station last night. One of the three corpses must be

It belongs to Baron Grey. The Knight Commander of the Kingdom can guarantee this.

At this moment, another voice suddenly came from next to the two of them.

"You two are right. We did see the body of Baron Gray at the pharmacist station last night, but I think the Earl of Montenegro also saw the Baron leaving Zhuoliu Town." Cheese didn't know when he wore his clothes.

The iconic gray robe sat next to the two of them. It was simply impossible to pass through the guards silently and approach the two battle-hardened veterans. But when the mage sat here and spoke,

Somehow, neither Leon nor Lothar was too surprised.

"What do you mean? Heather was rescued? Why did she come back?" the knight commander asked.

"Rescued. I've been busy with the surgery all afternoon and almost couldn't be saved. I said, Lord Earl, can you get something to eat first? I haven't eaten for a day." The mage looked lazily.

Leaning against the wall, he looked completely defenseless.

Although she still had doubts about Baron Gray's problem mentioned by Cheese, Lothar felt that the top priority was not the Baron's life or death.

"I heard that you are also investigating the whole story of this plague. When we were fighting just now, some ratmen took the opportunity to escape from here. Is there any way you can find them back?"

"There are ways, but what's the use? This plague has spread out of the Earl of Saron. And it wasn't just now, but last night," the mage said.

"Last night?" Both Leon and Lothar were confused about this.
