The leisurely days always pass quickly, especially for the servants in Eagle Castle.
The assassination one month ago had disappeared from their memories, and the explanation given by the butler Jess was also very reasonable. The assassin had been resolved by Lord Kane, and the crisis had been resolved as early as that night.
Although they were amazed at the frequent drills of the soldiers on the training ground, they didn't care about it, they just thought that Lord Kane had some new arrangements.
At noon this day, the mild sunlight shines on the whole land, making people want to take a comfortable nap.
A figure covered in blood rode a fast horse towards the castle.
Soon, he was stopped by the guards guarding the city.
"Stop, please identify yourself."
The cavalry with arrows stuck in their bodies pulled up the reins and stopped at the gate of the city.
"Cavalry, Aimel, I have something urgent to report to Lord Kane."
Seeing that the other party did have something urgent to report to the baron, the guards let him pass after confirming that his identity was correct.
Walking all the way, under the watchful eyes of many servants, the cavalry finally saw Kane.
He bowed with difficulty and reported to Kane: "Lord Kane, our cavalry patrol was attacked by goblins around Mako Village."
Kane asked suspiciously: "Goblin? Tell me what's going on." Immediately, he noticed the arrows on the cavalry again, and quickly told the steward beside him, "Gith, call Lim come over."
The Lim that Kane said was the only doctor in the territory, and it could be said that he was the baron's personal doctor. Although his medical skills were not very good, but the situation was urgent and he could only be treated as a living doctor.
Soon, Lim and his assistant came with a large bag of medical supplies, while the cavalryman Aimel sat in a shady corner with the support of Kane.
Despite the seriousness of the injury, Aimel continued: "My lord, at noon today, our cavalry team was patrolling the outskirts of Maike Village. Suddenly, a group of goblins rushed out of the surrounding forest and collided with our cavalry team. together.
"Not only are they more numerous than us, but the goblin at the head is also an extraordinary man. When our team lost, the captain sent me out to report the situation. I'm afraid the team is gone now."
Hearing what happened to the team, Kane sighed deeply: "Hey Aimel, have you seen the weapon used by the Transcendent on the other side?"
"Yes, my lord, a mace."
Kane nodded: "Very well, I've figured out the situation, you should take good care of your injuries and strive for an early recovery."
"Yes, Lord Kane."
After comforting the cavalryman, Kane turned to the doctor Lim and said, "Heal his injury, it's best not to leave any hidden illness behind."
Lim, who had to take on this difficult task, swallowed a mouthful of water. He had roughly seen the situation of the cavalry, and there were injuries all over his body, and the shoulder hit by the arrow was the most serious.
If he doesn't deal with it quickly, he will be infected with tetanus, and no one will be able to treat him.
"Yes, my lord, I will do my best to treat him." After replying to Kane, Lim hurriedly took the assistant beside him and transferred him to the room for rescue.
The sudden situation gave Kane a headache. The matter of Brunei Fort had not been resolved before, and a group of goblins came from outside the territory here. More importantly, he lost a cavalry patrol.
You must know that it is not easy to train a cavalryman. The cost of horses and armor alone requires a high expenditure, not to mention the time consumed during the period.
Constantly calculating the loss in his mind, Kane walked into the study, and he first ordered the housekeeper Keith to inform Catherine and Marcus to come to the study.
Then, he thought about the situation outside the territory.
Rigit Territory, this is the full name of Kane's territory, which includes a castle and a village.
According to Kane's impression, there shouldn't be any orc-like people around Rijit Territory, and there are even only a few supernatural beasts here and there.
Now a goblin tribe with superhumans suddenly appeared, which is really puzzling. Could it be that they escaped from the orc empire in the south
"Boom boom boom."
The knock on the outer door interrupted Kane's thoughts. It seemed that Marcus and Catherine had arrived.
Under Kane's signal, the two opened the door and entered. They saluted first, and then looked at Kane.
On the way here, the two of them heard more or less about this incident.
"The cavalry just came to report that a group of goblins came from outside the territory."
Catherine, who was more excited at the side, asked, "My lord, I heard that there are extraordinary people among them?"
Kane nodded: "It seems that you also know it. That's right, their leader is an extraordinary person. The current rank is not clear, but it should not exceed the first rank."
The experienced Marcus suggested: "My lord, this matter cannot be delayed. The other party may plunder Maike Village at any time. We need to act quickly."
"Well, I thought so too." Said Kane and opened the map on the desktop.
He raised his finger to the direction of the deep forest to the south: "According to the cavalry Aimel's report, the goblin collided with the cavalry here."
Marcus glanced at the terrain and said with a headache, "My lord, the forest here is very dense. I'm afraid it's not suitable for immediate combat. We need to walk into the forest."
"It can only be like this." Kane has no other way to do this.
Kane turned his head and told Catherine who was beside him: "Take all the scouts in the territory, we need to check the number and location of each other."
"Yes, my lord."
Seeing that the plan was discussed, Kane got up: "It's not too late, let's act, gather outside the Eagle Fort."
"Yes, Lord Kane."
The two who received the order hurried out of the study to summon the soldiers.
Kane also rushed to the lord's bedroom and put on his armor.
All of a sudden, there was a storm in the territory, and the soldiers rushed to the assembly point under the call of Catherine. A row of cavalry rode through the castle on fast horses, and the servants of the castle were all looking out of the city worriedly. , looking forward to the smooth operation of this operation.
Soon, Kane, riding a white steed, came outside the city. He was wearing a well-polished armor and holding a family sword.
At this moment, the soldiers and cavalry in the territory had gathered, and Marcus and Catherine walked out of it and came to Kane.
"Lord Kane, all 24 cavalry members have arrived."
"Lord Kane, 42 armed infantrymen and 3 scouts have arrived."
Except for the 6 casualties of the cavalry patrol and the guards in the castle, all the troops of Rijit's leadership were gathered here.
Kane nodded, and then shouted: "Let's go, attack the goblins, and avenge the dead brothers!"
"yes!!!"
