Dane looked coldly at Morno, who was a little out of control, without a trace of expression on his face.

This powerful, high-status half-orc warlord, who commanded thousands of troops under his command, looked at Dane panting heavily, and his eyes were a little red. Obviously, his gaffe was really from the heart, like a beast about to erupt, shrouding Dane in front of him in a terrifying atmosphere and coercion.

How powerful is a fourteenth-level barbaric warlord exuding in anger? Those who have experienced it will tell you that this feeling is even more frightening than facing the power of a giant dragon.

But Dane didn't change his expression under such power. He continued to look at Morno with a calm and indifferent face, his body remained motionless, as if he was not at all afraid of the beast in front of him, and it might violently kill him at any time. Please believe that Morno must have such ability. The fourteenth-level warlord is far more terrifying than the mammoth man Dane met in Shawan Harbor before, and he is not at the same level at all. .

However, just as they looked at each other like this, Morno's heavy breathing gradually faded away, and the redness in his eyes also dissipated. He slowly sat back on his large stone chair, and said in a muffled voice, "Brother Dane, don't take offense, you know my temper, I'm a little irritable, and I lost my composure for a while, I made you laugh."

Dane shook his head and said: "Of course I won't be surprised. I don't know what kind of person you are? It's just, brother Morno, your plan is really unreliable. This is too risky, the risk is huge , if you follow your plan, not only will you not be able to open up the current situation in Schindler, but on the contrary, you may ruin your only army that can play the role of a surprise soldier."

"Oh..." Morno smiled wryly, and said, "Then what can we do? Do you know how depressed my brother has been in the past half a year or so?"

Seeing the endless loneliness on Morno's face, the hero of the world, Dane also fell silent.

Morno sighed again, and said: "Since the death of Governor Bernier, my life has not been easy. I thought that with some generals and the leadership of Governor Oze, I could kill Conley , to avenge Bernier, but the result is still a failure. All fools know that those orcs invaded westward at such a good time, and they have maintained it for so long without retreating. There must be Conley in the middle. This insidious I have been living in a precarious panic for more than half a year since my guy came to power. Ma Long, who can be crushed to death by me with one hand, dared to jump like that in Shawan Harbor, and even dared to send a mammoth man. I will kill you in front of my people. A year ago, I would have brought the army to flatten his manor! But now, my brother can’t protect himself... "

Dane remained silent. He knew that such a heroic person, like Morneau, did not need comfort from others. What he needed was to find someone to confide the resentment and unwillingness in his stomach. He just had to do a good job. A listener role will suffice.

Morno continued: "I have actually thought about what you said, but I have to do it. The orcs will not retreat so easily, at least not before Conley attacks Governor Oze. Now, I will definitely be the next one to die. If I don’t fight now, I won’t even have a chance to fight in the future. So, do you understand the anxiety in my heart? I know that the risk in this will be very, very high , but I have no choice."

Afterwards, he looked at Dane expectantly, and said, "Brother Dane, I have always known that you are very capable. This time, brother, would you like to help him through this hurdle? I just want to pass it." This hurdle, if nothing else, brother, I will definitely not treat you badly."

After saying this, General Morno looked at Dane with hopeful eyes. But when he saw that the indifferent expression on Dane's face hadn't changed at all, those hopes gradually dissipated. He smiled wryly, waved his hand in a dispirited manner, and said, "That's all, I know your difficulties, you are now in charge of your own house, and you have a group of people to take care of, this matter is indeed very risky, if you don't come , I don't blame you either. Let's go and have a drink or two. I guess this may be the last time I drink with you. "

Dane shook his head and said, "Did I say I wouldn't help you?"

"Huh?" Morno was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic: "Would you like to come together?"

Dane nodded: "You have promised so many benefits, so I am tempted, can I not come?"

"Haha!" Morno laughed loudly. He rubbed his hands, and the excitement was beyond words: "Great, great! Sure enough, you are still very interesting, Brother Dane!"

"But..." At this time, Dane suddenly turned around again, "Your plan is simply too nonsense, I have a better one, do you want to hear it?"

"Is there something better? Why don't you tell me?"

In the reception hall of White Wolf Castle, twenty or thirty people have already gathered together. All kinds of food were placed in front of them, and waiters were constantly shuttled among them. But this should have been a very lively scene, but at this moment, there was no other sound except the sound of the waiters walking around. Those foods that are not exquisite, but full of Schindler's flavor, are placed on everyone's table, and no one has touched them.

You can tell at a glance that this is a banquet. This banquet has been in preparation for several days, and the purpose is basically known to everyone present - it is for the eastbound plan that will start soon. The people in this hall basically belong to the senior management under General Morno. Among them, the warriors have at least the duties of captain or higher. Rotten Town has other important responsibilities. In addition, there are three well-known heads of mercenary regiments in the southeast of Schindler, Alexandrina of Pure Sword, Jere of Smir, and Madman Sandro of Blood Axe.

However, everyone present did not speak, and no one moved the food on the scene. The main reason why the atmosphere is so deserted is because the master didn't come.

The banquet was supposed to start when the sun went down, but people waited here for nearly an hour, and the food was almost cold.

The people present were more or less well-known people in Rotten Wolf Town and White Wolf Fort. It is not common for so many of them to wait here for so long.

Finally, someone couldn't help it anymore: "Who is it that makes the boss stay with him for so long? Makes us wait so long?"
