"Finally saved!" Seeing the gate of the pass slowly opening, Roger couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.【】
The kind-hearted Lisa had red eyes and whispered behind Roger: "If this door had been opened earlier, so many people would not have died..."
After hearing what the girl said, Roger immediately looked solemn, and quickly turned around and said to everyone: "When we enter Lingtong Pass, no one is allowed to mention what happened just now, and no one is allowed to show any dissatisfaction in front of others. Did you hear that!?
"
Roger's words were stern when he said this. They had never seen him so stern before, and everyone was timid, and they quickly nodded in agreement. Anna next to her looked at Roger with admiration, feeling that he was thoughtful and thoughtful in every aspect.
Thoughtful, he is not an impulsive person.
Seeing civilians being massacred by undead creatures but not rescuing them, the soldiers guarding the border are guilty of a great deal. If everyone shows reluctance in this regard, these desperate soldiers will do anything to protect themselves. Lingtong
There are so many soldiers at the pass. If there is a conflict, Roger and others will never be able to escape.
For now, I can only pretend not to care about the refugees being killed, and wait until I get back to the capital to slowly settle accounts with these guys. Anyway, starting from Captain Wade who gave the order not to open the door, all the way to the soldiers below.
They have names and surnames, so don't worry about not being able to catch them.
Roger obviously thought of this, so he sternly warned others not to mess around. As a time traveler, Roger is used to seeing all kinds of intrigues on TV and in life. To think of this
Of course, it goes without saying. But according to the standards of the Toulonzo world, Roger's performance is much better than that of most people. No wonder Anna admires him so much.
As soon as the gate of the pass opened, Wade, dressed in military uniform, strode out, greeted the proud-looking Anna with a smile on his face and said: "Miss Hamilton, welcome to Linton Pass."
As the captain of the Linton Pass garrison, Wade is simply the emperor of the land here. Not long ago, hundreds of refugees were massacred because of one of his orders. However, if you look at the entire kingdom, Wade is just a low-ranking person.
He is a little person. Whether it is a marquis or an earl, he cannot afford to offend him at all, so Wade behaves so grovelingly when facing Anna.
Anna ignored Wade at all, and directly took out an identification document written on parchment and handed it over. At this time, she showed off her aristocratic style, completely different from when she was with Roger and others before.
Wade carefully took the parchment and read it carefully. Although Wade was acting very respectful now, he had actually been secretly prepared. As long as Anna could not prove her identity, he would immediately charge her with impersonating a noble.
Execute everyone to prevent the defenders from spreading the news.
However, to Wade's disappointment, this certificate contained all kinds of seals, whether it was the seal of the Kingdom's Privy Council or the private seal with the Hamilton family crest, it was absolutely a flawless proof of identity.
This made Wade sigh secretly, knowing that his plan to cause trouble for the other party's identity had failed, and he seemed to have to think of other ways to conceal the fact that he and his men had refused to save the refugees.
While Wade was thinking secretly, Anna was already impatient and said: "Why don't you let us in? The smell here is so bad, why don't you know how to clean up the bodies of these untouchables?"
For most nobles, the status of civilians is similar to that of animals, and their life and death are naturally not a big deal. Anna's words made Wade happy. The Duke's daughter, like other nobles, did not care about the lives and deaths of civilians at all.
In his eyes, this made him feel at ease a lot.
"As you wish, Miss Hamilton, I will immediately order the soldiers to dispose of the body!" Thinking of this, Wade quickly saluted Anna and said: "Please follow me, I have already arranged a rest for you and your entourage.
place."
Anna turned a blind eye to Wade's attentive attitude and walked straight into the pass. This attitude was in line with the behavior of a nobleman, and Wade did not feel dissatisfied. For him, as long as Anna did not hold herself and her men accountable for refusing to save the refugees.
As long as the problem is good, everything else is not a problem.
But Wade's happiness only lasted for a little while. When he noticed Roger and those soldiers, his heart that had just been relieved immediately rose again.
"A young man with black hair and black eyes, and a soldier with a similar appearance... Isn't this the guy mentioned in your letter?" Wade looked at Roger up and down, and was confused: "Why would he be with the Hamilton family?
We are together with other people? How can we prevent him from entering the pass? This is going to be troublesome!"
Wade's fear of that "adult" had penetrated deep into his bones. Although he knew he would offend Anna, he still stopped Roger and said, "I'm sorry, you can't go in!"
"Presumptuous!" Before Roger could speak, Anna turned around and scolded Wade: "These mercenaries were specially brought by my father to protect me. Do you want to question Duke Hamilton's decision?!"
Of course, Anna would not sit back and watch Wade make things difficult for Roger, so she simply moved her father out. I understand that a small character like Wade would not dare to actually go to the Duke to confront him.
As expected, Wade was frightened by Anna and quickly said with a smile: "It turns out they are mercenaries protecting you. Of course they are different. How could I dare to stop them!"
Anna snorted coldly and turned around to leave. Of course Roger and the others followed closely behind. Only Wade seemed to have fallen behind inadvertently, secretly thinking about how he could complete "that gentleman's job" without offending Anna.
The assigned task. However, this was easier said than done. Wade racked his brains and couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds. He could only frown with worry and his face was clouded.
Anna didn't take this little episode to heart. In her eyes, a small character like Wade was not worth mentioning at all. After entering Linton Pass, she did not go to rest, but let Wade lead the way.
He sent Rosberg to the Church of the Supreme God and asked the priest to help exorcise the dark power from his cousin.
Because with the help of Roger and others, Rosberg was sent to the church in time, so the ceremony to exorcise the dark power went smoothly. It didn’t take long for the priest to come out with a smile and tell everyone that the power in Rosberg’s body was
The dark power has been completely cleared, and it only takes a few days of cultivation to return to the original state.
After hearing the good news, Anna finally let go of her worries. Roger and others were also happy for the young earl. The only unhappy person present was Wade.
