Why did the Blood Cavalry appear here
What about the Tinder Army
Morrie lay on the ground, his mind full of doubts.
He only felt that the sound of horseshoes behind him seemed to never end, and countless cavalry rushed into Tinder City in groups.
I don't know how long he has been lying on the ground, anyway, Morrie's head is already dizzy, his ears are also buzzing, and his whole body is dizzy.
But he didn't dare to get up at all, and he didn't even have the courage to look up.
Because no one has cared about him, Morrie felt that his strategy of pretending to be a corpse should have been successful.
As long as he continues to pretend, then he shouldn't have to face those ferocious Blood Cavalry Army...
Unfortunately, Murray's dream was soon shattered.
Because, a war horse stopped beside him.
The hot breath from the horse's nose was sprayed straight into Morrie's head.
He wanted to keep playing dead, but he didn't dare.
"You, get up." A young and dignified voice ordered.
Morrie had no choice but to raise his head, and saw a young general in blood-red armor riding a tall horse, looking at him coldly.
Behind the young general were two half-grown children, a boy and a girl, who were wearing exquisite armor, and they were of extraordinary status at first glance.
It's just that the Fire Emblem on the armor looks familiar...
Morrie thought as he got up trembling.
"Royal... royal family..."
With a plop, Morrie, who had just stood up, knelt down again.
Obviously, he finally recognized the coat of arms on the armor of the two children—it was the coat of arms of the San Lorenzo family, the royal family of the empire.
Morrie was dumbfounded.
How could someone from the royal family appear here
Colin looked at Morrie whose eyes were rolling around, and asked lightly, "What's your name?"
"My name is Morrie."
"You look like a businessman, right?"
"Yes." Morrie nodded obediently.
Businessmen in this world are actually very easy to identify. They are gorgeously dressed but have no family badges, and are fat but not extravagant. Especially when they meet real nobles, the kind of flattery and humility are simply engraved in their bones.
Seeing Colin's gentle attitude, Morrie raised his head and carefully looked at the young general in front of him. Then he finally recognized the badge of the Roaring White Bear, and asked with a flattering smile:
"You are Earl Angelet, right? I am the president of the Eastern Iris Chamber of Commerce. It's an honor to meet you here!"
Colin nodded, feeling a little surprised.
Because this Iris Chamber of Commerce is quite famous in the Eastern Territory, I didn't expect that I would capture the president of this Chamber of Commerce in this way, and he was concerned, so Ke Lin smiled and said:
"Mr. Murray, you are my captive now, what are you going to use to redeem yourself?"
Morrie's face froze, and then he suppressed the pain in his heart and said with a flattering smile: "Master Earl, what do you want? Please just ask."
"Well, if you do one thing for me, I'll let you go."
"Please tell me." Morrie thought that the Earl Angelet would take the opportunity to blackmail him a sum of money, but he didn't expect that the other party would just ask him to do something for him. While he was relieved, he was also secretly wary .
Obviously, this matter will definitely not be easy to handle.
"I know that your Iris Chamber of Commerce has a lot of connections in the east, so I want you to spread the word about today's events."
"What about today? You mean..." Morrie asked cautiously.
"It was the Bruges family who took the initiative to open the gate of Tinder City and welcomed the blood cavalry with enthusiasm."
Morrie blinked, and immediately understood Colin's plan.
But he also understands that this matter is not so easy to handle. If it goes wrong, the Iris Chamber of Commerce will face the double pressure from the Bruckens and St. Pross families.
Colin seemed to see through Morrie's hesitation, and immediately said expressionlessly: "If this news doesn't get out, there will be another version."
"What version?"
"The Iris Chamber of Commerce colluded with the northern border and opened the gate of Tinder City."
The fat on Morrie's body trembled suddenly, and he couldn't help but think of the rumors about the fall of Linshui City.
It's just that those half-elven merchants could escape back to Silvermoon City anyway, but he couldn't.
The foundation of the Iris Chamber of Commerce is in the East Territory, leaving here, his whole life's painstaking efforts will be completely reduced to nothing.
Whether to sacrifice the Brugen family or the Iris Chamber of Commerce.
Of course Morrie knew how to choose, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely complete what you asked me to do!"
Colin smiled slightly, and patted Morrie on the head, as if the teacher was praising the obedient student: "Not bad, work hard!"
After speaking, he galloped forward.
Leaving Morrie standing alone at the gate of the city, his expression changed for a while, and finally he sighed.
…
In Tinder City at this moment, panic is turning into a strange calm.
Needless to say, panic, the people from the east should panic when the iron cavalry from the north entered the city.
But then, the people in the city discovered that these northern cavalrymen did not commit any crimes, and they could even be called innocent. Of course, the premise is that you don't resist.
Since the Velvet Army has been destroyed, although there are still many garrison troops in the city, the city gate has been broken, and there are still a small number of people from the east who have the courage to resist the vicious Blood Cavalry Army.
So, after the initial panic, Tinder City returned to calm.
After Colin entered the city, he went straight to the castle of the Bruggen family.
However, when he came to the castle, he was surprised to find that the gate of the castle was open.
Moreover, a group of members of the Bruckens family stood at the door, as if they were welcoming visitors from afar.
For a moment, Colin almost thought that he was not invading, but came to visit after he really accepted the invitation of the Bruckens family.
Just when Colin was puzzled, a young man wearing a viscount dress came out from the opposite side, and said loudly:
"Respected Guardian of the North, Earl Angelet, welcome to Tinder City! My father is away on business and cannot greet you in person. On behalf of my father, I would like to express my sincerest apologies to you!"
Hearing this, Colin immediately realized that the other party must have misunderstood.
They must have thought that the Blood Cavalry Army bypassed the Tinder Army, took advantage of the speed of the cavalry to arrive at Tinder City first, and took a sneak attack to break through the city gate. That's why the Bruggen family put on such a welcoming look. attitude.
One is to show that he has enough confidence and remind Colin not to mess around.
The second is to use this to delay the time and wait for the Tinder Army to come back.
So, Colin smiled slightly and said, "You can't represent Earl Bruggen."
The young man was stunned, and said: "Lord Earl, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the eldest son of Earl Bruggen and the first heir to the title of Earl of the family, Viscount Green, so when my father is away, I can certainly represent him... "
"No, you misunderstood me." Colin smiled and shook his head, and said, "What I want to say is that Earl Bruggen is dead, why are you representing a dead man?"
"Father... Father... is dead..." Viscount Green seemed to be choked by someone, and he squeezed out a few words, his face full of disbelief.
"Yeah." Colin smiled brightly, "I have also restrained his body, want to see it?"
"No...impossible, impossible!" Viscount Green seemed unable to accept this reality at all, shaking his head like a convulsion.
Colin clapped his hands, and four soldiers came forward carrying a coffin.
Boom!
When the coffin landed, Colin immediately made an inviting gesture and said:
"Viscount Green, take a look for yourself."
