The spring is beautiful and cloudless.
A little farce last night did not have much impact in the army.
As soon as the sky dawned, the army set off as usual, continuing to chase the traces of the troll northward.
Of course, the word "chasing" is not quite appropriate.
Because the speed of the black cavalry is too slow.
Colin always felt that Marquis Garcia seemed to be waiting for something on purpose.
Moreover, advancing at such a slow speed, I am afraid that the troll army would have withdrawn from the northern border long ago.
Perhaps, this is exactly what Marquis Garcia intends
Win without a fight
Although he was full of doubts, Colin didn't dare to question the supreme commander of the Black Cavalry Army.
Moreover, here, or even in the entire northern border, no one dared to question Marquis Garcia's military orders.
Behind the army that was advancing at a tortoise speed, Colin lay down again on the flatbed trailer that he had just bid farewell to.
In fact, his injury this time looked scary, but it was not dangerous at all.
Vera was quite frightened, so she called Archbishop Raven again and asked him to cast a healing spell on Colin himself.
The healing technique cast by the archbishop himself was really effective. In just one night, Colin already felt the wound itching, and there were signs of healing.
But he wasn't too happy.
After all, what he wanted was not healing, but holy water!
Unfortunately, the archbishop's holy water was really used up.
Hey, wasted a good show he put on.
It seems that I have to find a way to go to the church to get some holy water in the future.
After all, compared to the blood of high-ranking knights, although pure holy water is rare, it is relatively easier to obtain.
Moreover, it is safe, stable and risk-free.
Just when Colin was lying on the trailer and started thinking about the church, Oliver hurried over and reported:
"Master Colin, Thrall he...he..."
"He ran away?" Colin glanced at the sweaty fat man, and a hideous look flashed across his face.
If Thrall really dared to run away, then Colin would definitely charge him as a deserter, so that he would not be able to get along in the entire northern border.
"No, no, he didn't run away."
"Does he dare not come?" Colin was a little surprised now.
How dare a little mercenary disobey the orders of the nobles
Colin was about to ask Knight Raymond to kill that dutiful son, but Oliver shook his head and said:
"No, Thrall has already joined the ranks of the Su Duo family. And when I asked Knight Cynthia for someone, she... she..."
"What did she say?" Colin's voice was a little cold.
Oliver shrank his head and whispered: "She said... you are not qualified to order people from the Su Duo family..."
"Hehe." Ke Lin's face flashed green.
This filial son could see the situation clearly, and he hugged another thick leg so quickly.
And that crazy woman from the Su Duo family seemed to really plan to fight Colin to the end.
Taking a deep breath, Colin calmed down.
He felt that there was no need to worry.
The Su Duo family who lost their fief is just a thing of the past, how long can that crazy woman shelter Thrall
Colin will send that dutiful son to hell to reunite with his father sooner or later.
However, this time, Colin seemed to have miscalculated.
Because only a few days later, Ice Rock City was recovered by the Su Duo family.
Moreover, the entire recovery process is unbelievably simple.
When the black cavalry army slowly headed north, they discovered that not only did they not encounter any army of trolls along the way, even the trolls completely gave up on the once occupied cities.
Yes, give up completely.
The troll soldiers inside were completely gone, as if they had never been there.
As a result, the fleeing lords and nobles who were collected by the black cavalry army suddenly regained their spirits.
They led their remnants of the defeated generals, "killed" into those empty cities again, and announced that they had regained the lost ground.
Because there are black cavalry to maintain order.
However, there was no situation where you competed for each other. All the lords tacitly led their troops into their original fiefdoms, and did not rob other people's cities.
There are even a few families whose heirs are all dead, and no one dares to occupy their territories.
After all, the victory this time was entirely based on the great reputation of the Black Cavalry Army, and the rest of the lords followed the Black Cavalry Army to pick up bargains.
If they didn't know what to do and took something that didn't belong to them, then Marquis Garcia would not be polite to them.
Those unowned fiefdoms, in the eyes of the lords, would naturally be handed over to Marquis Garcia for disposal.
Therefore, no matter how Ke Lin gritted his teeth and cursed the Su Duo family's shit luck, Cynthia regained Ice Rock City without bloodshed.
A revival of the Sudo family seems to be in sight.
Afterwards, the Black Cavalry Army camped on the outskirts of Ice Rock City.
Ice Rock City is the closest big city to the Sky Ice Field in the northeastern part of the North Territory. Marquis Garcia seems to be planning to stay here for a long time, and has no intention of continuing to go north to counterattack the trolls.
Cynthia, who had regained Ice Rock City, was proud of her spring breeze, and immediately invited the Marquis Garcia and other nobles into Ice Rock City, and announced that a banquet would be held in three days to celebrate this "big victory".
Colin also received an invitation to the banquet, but he felt that the crazy woman did not intend to settle down with him.
Although it was not a grand banquet, Ke Lin felt that Cynthia would never let him have a good time at the banquet.
Of course, Colin would not be intimidated.
He also wanted to see what "program" that crazy woman had arranged for him.
Hope you don't let yourself down.
"Oliver." Colin put down the banquet invitation in his hand and called.
"My lord, what are your orders?"
Oliver has been used by Colin as a servant these days, which is regarded as punishment for him revealing the secret of Colin's use of false identities.
"I need a banquet dress, do you know which tailor shop in Ice Rock City can make it?"
Colin sneaked out this time by concealing his identity, so naturally he would not carry such things as a dress.
Oliver heard this, and quickly put on a flattering smile: "Master Colin, our Tulip Chamber of Commerce has a station in Ice Rock City, and there are definitely skilled tailors there who can help you make a beautiful dress!"
Colin looked at Oliver with a half-smile, but didn't speak.
Until the fat businessman saw his heart trembling and his forehead was sweating.
"Okay, then go to the place you said."
"Yes!" Oliver breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since he saw Colin's fierceness in the battle with Cynthia that night, Oliver was particularly afraid of the heir to the baron.
Even if Oliver has faced other nobles with higher titles, no one has ever been able to bring him such a great pressure.
When Colin didn't immediately agree to Oliver's suggestion just now, he immediately realized that he had said something wrong.
Because the Tulip Chamber of Commerce was Oliver's domain, and he suggested finding a tailor there, obviously wanting to take the opportunity to break away from Colin's control.
However, Colin agreed.
This made Oliver even more uneasy.
The banquet was just three days away, and the time was short, so the two of them did not delay, and immediately went to the station of the Tulip Chamber of Commerce that Oliver mentioned.
