There are not only two humming little tigers in the cave.

Xia Zoe looked around, and even though the light was slightly dim, he could still clearly see that there were many rock asphalts of different sizes and shapes embedded in the rocky crevices of the mountain wall.

Some have rolled to the ground, covered with a thin layer.

"Judit, why are these stones black?"

As he spoke, he picked up a small piece of rock asphalt from the ground and handed it to the butler standing behind him.

Judit took it and took a closer look, then frowned: "Lord Count, this doesn't seem to be a stone... Could you let me take a closer look?"

Xia Zuoyi got up and retreated to the back, making way for the place, and the two little tigers stumbled over.

Judit stepped forward, squatted beside the mountain wall to observe carefully, and said hesitantly after reading: "Lord Count, this seems to be a kind of... ore, could it be here..."

With the handle of the dagger he carried with him, he tapped the cracks of the mountain wall.

A lot of black ores rolled down, and another layer fell on the feet, but more ores were revealed in the cracks.

"Judit."

Xia Zuoyi suddenly called him behind him, and when Judit turned around, he pointed to the mountain wall next to him: "There seems to be..."

A few scattered pieces of black ore are hidden in the rock interlayer, which is not as conspicuous as the directly exposed innermost.

Judit took a deep breath and said, "Lord Count, we should have discovered a mineral vein."

Coincidentally, a soldier came to pass the news that the two chiefs had interrogated the master behind the scene, and asked the Count to make a decision.

Xia Zuoyi: "Judit, don't make any public announcements about the discovery of the ore veins. Let's talk about this time after things subside."

"Yes, Lord Count."

Xia Zuoyi bent down and pouted his buttocks to pick up the two little tigers with difficulty, refused Judit's help, and walked out slowly with the belly of a tiger in one hand.

After going out, unexpectedly, many people were surprised.

Fernandi and Valcke interrogated the prisoners separately, and finally checked the confessions.

The person who ambushed to assassinate Xia Zoe in Parshan this time turned out to be the conspiracy of Beavis Elliott and an earl of the Kingdom of Guyana, Matthew Luke.

Xia Zuoyi frowned, and the earl of the Kingdom of Guyana was also involved. No wonder there were a lot of people ambushing in the small valley. It can be seen that both of them sent knights to kill him.

He looked at Fernandi and asked, "Have you heard of Matthew Luke?"

Fernandi said in a deep voice, "... Not only have I heard of it, but I have also seen it before. He is a subordinate vassal of Marquis Bruno Green."

Valk William raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Does your former lord know that his vassal's hand stretches so long? It's all stretched out into the territory of our Gadayat Kingdom."

"Valke." Xia Zoe gave him a warning look.

"I don't mean anything else, Lord Count." Valk smiled with his hands on either side of his head.

Fernandi looked indifferent and said nothing.

Xia Zuoyi said, "what else did they say?"

Valk: "Matthew Luke himself came to Gadayat and is currently a guest at Beavis Elliott's castle."

"Their plan was to wait for the successful ambush of Parr Mountain, then Matthew Luke pretended to capture Wessas, and Beavis Elliott came to the rescue to push back the people, and then logically received Wessas. "

Xia Zuoyi nodded thoughtfully: "The idea is quite good."

He said: "I remember that the lords of the same country are not allowed to fight privately."

"But if there is a reason, for example, because the rescue occupies a territory that has lost its lord, it is possible to apply to the king to become the new lord of this territory..."

"am I right?"

Xia Zoe's territory was entrusted by the king himself.

Beavis Elliott's domain is that Buzz Ridges has subdivided his own land.

There is a saying - my vassals are not my vassals.

The king gave the land to Bass Ridges.

Buzz Ridges redistributes his land to Beavis Elliott.

Therefore, it is not easy for even the king to meddle in the affairs of Beavis Eliot's territory.

But if Xia Zoe rescued Fort Komoy, he would occupy it logically, and then apply to the king to become the new lord of Fort Komoy.

Not even the superior lord, Bas Ridges, had the right to intervene.

What's more, Beavis Elliot colluded with the Earl of the Kingdom of Guyana in an attempt to murder another nobleman. The evidence is conclusive and cannot be refuted.

Valk smiled: "Of course you're right."

Xia Zoe: "In that case, in the name of saving Fort Komoy, Fernandi, Valk, lead the soldiers to the rescue!"

Godsend opportunity.

It was precisely because of this winter drill that I brought complete equipment and could start directly from Paar Mountain, which greatly shortened the time.

They're going to beat Beavis Elliott before he can react.

Fernandi: "Yes, Lord Count!"

Valk: "Yes, Lord Count!"

Beavis Elliott never thought that Xia Zoe would temporarily advance the date of the winter rehearsal by one day.

He also did not expect that the ambush location, which he thought was very hidden, was easily discovered, and it was directly served in a pot.

When the knight guarding the city gate came to the castle with blood and blood to announce, Beavis Elliott was drinking wine with Matthew Luke in a leisurely manner.

"Lord Count! It's not good! The soldiers of Weissus have already attacked Fort Comoy... Now they are coming towards the direction of the castle!"

Most of the knights of Fort Komoy were sent to Mount Parr for an ambush, and very few remained in the city, and the city gate was breached without resistance for a long time.

The soldiers of Weissus rushed in like a broken bamboo.

"Clap" sound.

The wine glass fell to the ground and shattered.

Matthew Luke stood up from his seat in disbelief: "What did you say?!"

Beavis Elliott grabbed the knight's armor and said with a twisted expression, "Why did the soldiers of Weissus come here at this time?!"

"Aren't they going to have a winter drill tomorrow at Parr Mountain?! Why... what about the others?! What about the other knights?!"

The knight said with difficulty: "No, no more..."

Beavis Elliott was stunned, his hand loosened, and the knight fell to the ground.

"Your plan is wrong!" Matthew Luke accused angrily.

Beavis Elliott also retorted angrily: "Fart! Yes... "

The sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground came from far and near.

Beavis Elliott's expression became flustered: "Escape, let's escape... ho!"

A burst of fresh blood suddenly splashed on Matthew Luke's face.

It happened unexpectedly.

When no one responded.

Knight Commander Dyna, who had been standing quietly behind Matthew Luke, suddenly drew his sword and stepped forward, the sharp blade mercilessly slashed through Beavis Elliott's throat...

Blood splattered all over the ground, stunned the housekeepers of Matthew Luke and Beavis Elliott.

The next moment, the long sword did not pause, and once again pierced the butler's chest.

"you you… "

The butler eventually died with his eyes wide open, lying next to the body of Beavis Elliott.

Knight Commander Dyna turned to Matthew Luke.

Matthew Luke couldn't help but take a step back in panic: "Why did you kill them?!"

Knight Commander Dana's face was covered by a helmet, and his voice was a little dull: "Lord Marquis ordered that if things do not work out, in order to prevent the plans of him and Lord Bas Ridges from being exposed, insiders and others can't stay alive."

"Don't worry, Count, I will not leave Fort Komoy alive."

Judging from the current situation, they could not escape at all.

"No, you dare!"

Matthew Luke's eyes were splitting.

He watched Knight Commander Dana swing the sword down without hesitation, and hurriedly dashed to the side to dodge in a panic, the sword instantly stabbed into the carpet beside his legs, and the tearing sound was almost in his ears.

Matthew Luke didn't hesitate, got up quickly and ran for his life outside the castle.

Knight Commander Dyna followed closely behind him.

The two met Fernandi and Valk who were leading the soldiers into the castle.

Fernandi was wearing a half-face helmet, and his resolute face was instantly reflected in Matthew Luke's eyes, as well as in the eyes of Knight Commander Dana.

For a while, the two stopped chasing.

"...Fernandi?!" Dyna's voice was incredulous.

He even took off his helmet, revealing a handsome and clean face, and looked at Fernandi Edward in surprise and joy.

Dyna Prince was a close friend of Fernandi Edwards.

He obviously did not expect to see his former brother here, and since Fernandi was condemned as a slave, he thought he would never have the chance to see each other again.

"Fernandi!"

Dyna Prince couldn't help rushing over and hugging him, patting him on the back hard, looking excited and happy.

Fernandi was equally happy, and after hugging back, a smile appeared on his face with little expression.

Valk William raised the corners of his mouth: "You two, maybe you can catch up with each other later."

Dana Prince then reacted wrongly.

How could Fernandi be here? !

He let go of his hand and looked up and down his friend carefully. When he found out that he was wearing armor that only knights were qualified to wear, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Fernandi, you..."

"It's a long story," Fernandi said.

He didn't miss the previous picture of Dina chasing Matthew Luke with a sword, and frowned and asked, "Why did you kill him?"

As the knight commander of Marquis Bruno Green, why did Dyna Prince appear here? !

Matthew Luke finally had a chance to speak, and said yin and yang strangely: "It was an order from Bruno Green, this damn, hypocritical villain..."

Not finished.

Dyna Prince's long sword quickly slid across Matthew Luke's neck: "Shut up! Don't speak ill of Lord Marquis."

He looked at Fernandi again and said, "I'm very happy to see you here, Fernandi, I can rest assured that you're doing well."

"The Marquis ordered that Matthew Luke must be killed, and then I will be willing to die. This is the loyalty of a knight. I..."

Matthew Luke interrupted Dyna Prince in a panic, shouting: "Fernandi Edward! You told him not to kill me, I can tell you one thing about your sister's death. the truth!"
