The red leaf forest is a brilliant red, just like the sunset in the sky, spreading to the endless distance.
Snap, snap!
In the morning, in the red leaf forest near Giethoorn, four elite soldiers of the Fergus family wearing black leather armor were walking on foot in the forest full of red leaf trees.
They move extremely carefully. If there is any disturbance, they will immediately become vigilant. They will not continue to move forward until they are sure that there is no danger.
"Have you heard? Another one died yesterday, already the seventh one!"
A muscular man with slightly dark skin whispered.
"How did you die?"
Another big, muscular man asked in a low voice.
"I heard that he was bitten by a venomous snake. I was so unlucky that he was bitten on the neck and died on the spot. His death was really unfair."
The muscular man with slightly tanned skin said.
"It's pretty good. The four guys who died a few days ago were the worst. They probably met the monster head-on and even their bodies were gone."
A muscular man answered.
"Do you think we will encounter that monster head-on?"
A man with yellow hair looked worried.
"Shut your crow mouth, I still want to go back alive and marry a wife."
The muscular man was dissatisfied and scolded.
"Do you want to get a wife? This time when I go back, I am also planning to get a wife. Although this mission is dangerous, the reward from the Viscount is also very generous. There are three gold coins in total."
When he heard about marrying a wife, the dark-skinned man licked his tongue, excitement and longing flashed in his eyes.
Three gold coins, a huge sum of money that they had never dared to imagine before. Under normal circumstances, even if they worked for the castle for decades, they might not be able to save such a huge sum of money.
As long as he can get this reward, he can quit his current job as a castle soldier, go back to marry a wife, farm or do some small business, and be completely worry-free for the rest of his life.
As for the dangers involved, he didn't care too much. As long as he became a soldier, dangers would definitely be inevitable. In that battle a few months ago, there were no monsters, so people died
And dozens of them died, several times more than those who died at the mouth of monsters.
The big, strong man and the yellow-haired man did not speak, but they could not help but show a trace of yearning on their faces. As long as they survived, by the end of this mission, they would be able to have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Along the way, the four of them explored the forest. After about half an hour, they saw the lake that Gray and the others saw last time.
In the trees near the lake, there is a simple nest made of dead branches. This is where Han Hu usually sleeps. Because this is not the first time he has come to explore, from a distance, the sight of several people can be easily seen. Found this lair, and found Han Hu resting in this lair.
"Quick, look, is that...?"
Suddenly, the four people's eyes suddenly opened wide, looking in the direction of Hanhu's lair with a mixture of surprise and surprise.
In a simple nest made of dead branches, a two-meter-long cold tiger was lying diagonally on the dead branches.
Compared with ordinary tigers, it is larger in size. However, under its huge size, it is not covered with fat, but with powerful and explosive muscles.
From the appearance alone, one can already tell how powerful this tiger-shaped blood beast is. The four of them have no doubt that if they are discovered by this tiger-shaped blood beast, none of them will be able to escape. The four people who were killed before will not be able to escape. Companions are the best proof.
But at this time, what they were staring at was not the powerful and terrifying muscles on the opponent's body, but a white animal that was only twenty or thirty centimeters long next to the opponent's lower abdomen.
Covered in white hair, it lay motionless next to the tiger-shaped blood beast. Only the occasional slight squirming proved that it was alive.
The four of them looked at each other with excitement and joy on their faces. They knew that their mission was finally completed, because the white animal was obviously the cub of a tiger-shaped ferocious beast!
Although the distance was a bit far, they couldn't even see the appearance of this small white animal, but they were very sure that it was the cub of the tiger-type blood beast, and it would appear next to the tiger-type blood beast, and it had not been killed yet. , it can only be a tiger-type blood beast cub! ! !
…
"Having given birth?"
The news was told to Bernal, who was stationed in Giethoorn, and soon reached Fergus Castle. Viscount Fergus, Gray and others who received the news showed unconcealable excitement on their faces.
A blood beast whose strength can be comparable to a fierce warrior when it reaches adulthood is a blood beast whose strength can be comparable to a fierce warrior when it reaches adulthood!
There is only one step left to get it. As long as you gather people and surround the mother beast, you can get it immediately.
"I finally gave birth!"
Viscount Fergus's face showed a rare joy. After waiting for more than half a month, the cold tiger finally gave birth to cubs.
"Very good!"
Sarah sat next to Gray with excitement on her face.
"Well, great."
Gray also looked happy. A cold tiger cub was indeed of great value, at least to the current Fergus family.
Caroline and Ellis both had faces filled with joy and excitement.
"Master, an accident may happen, it's best to take action as soon as possible!"
Mrs. Milan clasped her hands together excitedly, paced back and forth, and said eagerly.
"I know."
After suppressing the smile on his face, Viscount Fergus nodded solemnly, and then called the butler Nissen.
"Nissen, immediately send someone to notify Baron Ricardo, Baron Kipling, Lord Corgi, and Lord Harry, and ask them to come to the castle to see me immediately!"
The four of them are the other four high-ranking blood warriors in the Viscount Fergus territory, except Lord Linde. To hunt down the cold tiger without fail, four of them must be called upon.
"Yes, Lord Viscount!"
Butler Nissen, a brown-haired man in his early 40s, although he was confused as to why the Viscount summoned these four people so urgently, he knew what to ask and what not to ask, so he quickly took the order to arrange the report. people.
More than an hour later, Baron Ricardo, Baron Kipling, Lord Corgi, and Lord Harry, who received the urgent summons, arrived at Fergus Castle one after another on horseback.
"What, a cold tiger cub?"
"This this… "
Because the four people were required to participate in the siege and killing of the cold tiger, Viscount Fergus told the four people about the cold tiger cub. When they learned of the existence of the cold tiger cub, the four people's faces could not help but be filled with shock.
A cold tiger cub is already an extremely shocking thing for the Fergus family, let alone a baron family and a lord family like them.
After a moment, the first person to react was Baron Ricardo.
"Congratulations, Lord Viscount, on getting a cold tiger cub!"
"If I want to get the cold tiger cubs, I need the help of the four of you. Together with me, we will kill the cold tiger mother that just gave birth to her cubs."
Viscount Fergus looked at the four of them.
"Your Majesty the Viscount, just give me your orders!"
Baron Kipling was the first to express his position.
As the number one fighting family in Fergus Viscounty, the Kipling family never refuses to fight and is always at the forefront.
"Your Majesty the Viscount, just give me your orders!"
Baron Ricardo, Lord Corgi, and Lord Harry looked slightly moved in their eyes and immediately expressed their stance.
"Very good, the cold tiger cub will belong to the Fergus family, but the flesh and blood of the cold tiger that has given birth will be shared by all four of your families."
Viscount Fergus nodded with satisfaction and said.
The most correct way to control his subordinates is to use both kindness and power. Viscount Fergus clearly understood this. After forcibly recruiting four people to participate in the siege, he gave some of the sweetness and benefits to the four people.
"Thank you, Lord Viscount, for your generosity!"
The faces of the four people couldn't help but have a look of joy. The cold tiger cubs had no share, but the flesh, flesh and blood of the cold tiger that had given birth to cubs were also extremely precious things. If they could be distributed, the benefits this time would definitely not be low.
"Very good. To avoid any accidents, let's set off. Gray and Ellis, you two are with us."
Viscount Fergus glanced at Gray and Ellis and said.
"yes."
Both of them responded, but after Gray responded, he said again.
"Father, I suggest bringing more cavalry over!"
"Bring more cavalry? Master Gray, we need to be stealthy in our actions now. If the team is too large, it will definitely be noticed by other viscount families."
Baron Ricardo frowned slightly and said disapprovingly.
"With so many people, it is indeed easy for other viscount families to notice. However, even if they are noticed, it will be too late by the time they get the news and arrive."
Gray shook his head.
"Brother Bernal has stayed in Giethoorn for so long. I'm afraid the Viscount family has noticed it. To be on the safe side, I think we should bring more cavalry."
"Father, I think what Gray said makes sense. Even if other families know about it, it is already too late. Bring more cavalry. If there is an emergency, they will be better able to deal with it."
Caroline also spoke.
"That makes sense. We should indeed bring in more people."
Viscount Fergus nodded in agreement.
