Hearing the death of seventy-six people in battle, Gejir's expression changed slightly, but he soon recovered.

The secret guard battalion is a private army he has spent a lot of resources to build over the years. In addition to the 500 people who came to rescue today, there is another battalion stationed near the Yongshuang Mountains.

But now that I heard that I lost so much just to rescue him, I would be lying if I said I didn't feel sorry for him. After all, so many years of resources were lost. Not to mention the loss of a thousand gold, but the loss of five or six hundred gold.

After pondering for a moment, Gejir asked.

What's going on with the people I rescued together now?

Most of the guards did not complain, but some servants were impatient and frightened. Some even wanted to sneak away, but they have been captured.

This answer was not surprising to Gejir. Only a few people knew about his affairs, and these servants were only captured to make up the numbers.

Continue to send people to keep an eye on the escaped escapees and kill them directly to warn others that this is the fate of escape.

yes.

At such an emergency moment, Gejir also behaved very indifferently, and a simple sentence could determine the life or death of a group of people.

Andrew, what do you think about what happened today?

There was no one around Gezier, but he was asking questions to himself.

The empire can investigate so carefully. There are only two possibilities. One is that you betrayed the Beast King, and the other is that someone above the ordinary intervened in the investigation and surpassed my detection.

When the hoarse voice sounded, under the dim moonlight, a 'human' figure suddenly appeared next to Gejir, a shaman in black robes, speaking slowly.

The familiar voice was exactly the same as the one that sounded in his castle.

If I had betrayed the Beast King, you wouldn't have informed the secret guards to rescue me.

Faced with the first possibility mentioned by Andrew, Gergil directly overturned it.

As for the intervention of the extraordinary... it is not impossible, but if that is the case, I cannot be rescued so easily.

Andrew did not refute Gergil's words, but continued to think and listen quietly.

Compared to these two possibilities, my intuition is more inclined to be the guy from Qingyuan Town.

We have dealt with Sehit's matter in an almost categorical manner. We have searched and destroyed all suspicious items in the castle.

But four years later, this matter is still exposed, and it is juxtaposed with other things. Except that Gooden may have had the opportunity to come into contact with this matter, I can't think of anyone else who could do it.

As an old fox who is half buried in the earth, Gejir's intuitive analysis is extremely accurate.

The beginning and process of the whole thing were just as he analyzed.

In addition, according to reports, Gudern is building a city wall in Qingyuan Town, and has completed the prototype of the foundation. The scale is said to be several times that of Jinyuan City...

Impossible, how could the city wall be built so fast?

Regarding this news, Andrew shook his head and said softly and firmly. It was naturally impossible for him to believe such ridiculous news.

Well, I didn't believe this kind of thing at first, but think about it, why did Gudern suddenly build a city wall?

If it was just to protect himself, he could just re-reinforce and build the castle wall. Why would he need to go to such a big fight?

Gegil's words silenced Andrew. He also knew something about this weak, lustful and short-sighted Lord Qingyuan.

But now that the changes were so huge, he was also very confused.

In addition...I just received the identity investigation on Gudern today, and it also gave me some new information. It is said that his family directly serves the royal family, but the specific family is not clear yet.

If this news is true, Gudern must be a die-hard member of the imperial royal party, and some direct powers and arrangements will naturally make us confused.

It's like the news of my arrest. If the superiors know about it, they will reveal it to me during this contact.

But unfortunately not. This is very abnormal, but if you assume Gudern's identity, everything will be explained.

After Gejir finished speaking, there was a moment of silence under the tree hole.

At the same time, in another camp not far away, there was some commotion in the camp due to the orders brought by the secret guards.

Because he escaped from the team privately, he tipped off the pursuers, and in accordance with the law, the escaper was killed on the spot.

The three kneeling escapees, because they were bound and gagged, their eyes widened when the death sentence was announced, and they expressed disbelief at the news.

But as the leader of the secret guards gave the order, the soldiers below raised their swords and slashed down without hesitation.

Tsk-tsk-tsk-

The cold and sharp sword blade slashed across the three people kneeling on the ground, and unusually red blood spurted out from their necks in an instant under the moonlight.

After twitching for a while, the three of them quickly lost their vitality.

Don't think about escaping. If you are discovered, you will only die.

After saying that, the leader of the secret guards had the three corpses dragged away from here, leaving behind a pungent smell of blood that floated around in the breeze.

Everyone around the scene was inexplicably abducted from the Snow Valley Castle and then forced to come here inexplicably.

Looking at the three people who were directly beheaded, there seemed to be a sinister wind hanging around their necks, making them shrink their necks.

Just because he wanted to escape, he was killed directly. This kind of thing cast a shadow on everyone's heart.

Roy, who was among the crowd, was also watching this scene, thinking about how to escape.

Roy also seemed helpless about today's unreasonable disaster.

His job within the Charleson family was not very important to begin with. Apart from going to the pub to eat and drink every day, he just wandered around the town to see if he could get any information.

Occasionally go to the castle to wander around and listen to more important information.

But today he was staying well in the tavern when a group of imperial soldiers rushed in and captured him.

Without listening to his explanation or rhetoric, he directly took off his sword and armor.

When he was being escorted to Jinyuan City, he also heard about various incriminating evidences about Gejir, and he immediately decided to break away from him.

But just as he was about to prove his identity to the imperial soldiers next to him, a team of mixed humans and orcs came out from both sides of the road.

Since the number of people in the ambush was two or three times that of the arresting team, in less than half an hour, the entire team was killed, and they were also taken away by this mysterious team.

Originally, Roy wanted to pretend to be dead and avoid the disaster, and then return to Qingyuan Town to report the news after they left.

But when he saw these people cleaning up the battlefield and finishing up every corpse, even his own seriously injured people, this timid approach made him give up the idea instantly.

After being rescued, this group of people took them all the way to the Yongshuang Mountains in the northwest.

They were not able to stop and rest until the sun completely set and the crescent moon hung high in the sky.

Roy didn't care about the group's destination or approach, but he knew that if he really followed the team there, he would probably have no chance of escaping.

The warning storm came and went quickly. Everyone from Snow Valley Town gathered in a small circle of their own to keep warm and express their dissatisfaction with the current situation.

As an outsider, Roy also had a small circle of his own, including two informants from Qingyuan Town.

At this moment, the three of them were squatting together and discussing the next plan.

Based on the current distance, we will be under the Yongshuang Mountains at noon tomorrow at the latest. If we try to escape by then, I'm afraid we won't have a chance...

So I plan to give it a try while I still have a chance tonight. Do you have any plans?

After listening to Roy's words, the two looked at each other and nodded firmly.

We have the same idea as you. Tonight is probably our best chance to escape. The young master probably needs our information very much now and must give it a try.

After hearing the answers from the two men, Roy no longer hesitated and immediately began to make plans to escape from here.

I just observed that the main station of this private soldier is near Gejier, and there are more than a hundred people watching around us.

And the orcs are stationed in the east and southeast, blocking our return route. If we want to escape, we can only run in the north or southwest directions first, and then take a detour.

If we want to escape, we must create chaos and movement. Did you bring the things back?

The thing Roy was talking about were incendiary bombs. Although these items were all taken away when they were captured, when they got their equipment back after the rescue, the two of them also took the opportunity to get back the incendiary bombs.

Although the main weapon such as the long sword has been taken away, some daggers or gadgets have not.

I got it back, three in total.

One of them nodded and said, taking one out of his arms and handing it to Roy. The two of them had already taken the other two with them.

It's a northwest wind at night. When the incendiary bomb arrives, one person will go to the orc camp, another person will go to the private soldier camp, and there will be one left for us to throw away in case of danger on the way out.

When it's time for action, we'll wait until everyone is asleep. While there's still time, you two can get some sleep first. I'll go and observe the defense changes and personnel of the private soldiers. I'll take turns when the time comes.

good.

The two nodded in agreement with Roy's arrangement, and then immediately leaned against the trees and closed their eyes to rest.

Late at night and early in the morning, after taking turns to rest and investigate, the trio made corresponding preparations and work.

Taking advantage of this moment when everyone in the wild was tired and exhausted, they began to make their own escape plan under the dim moonlight.

As the synchronization time arrived, personnel on both sides threw two incendiary bombs while no one was paying attention.

In less than tens of seconds, a blazing white fire suddenly burst out, and a huge splash of fire erupted, instantly igniting the surrounding trees.

At the same time, driven by the northwest wind, the smoke generated by the incendiary bombs quickly covered a small area.

When the fire lit up, it attracted the attention of many people, who all shouted to come and put out the fire.

But the pungent cover and the gradual difficulty in breathing made them realize that the fog was poisonous!

In less than three minutes, the entire temporary camp became extremely chaotic.

The Roy trio, who caused all this, took advantage of the chaos and ran toward the southwest.

Some guards who saw something was wrong also took advantage of this moment to run away.

But when he saw the familiar fire, Gejir also realized that there was a ghost in the team he brought, so he immediately ordered to disperse and arrest all the guards and servants who came from Snow Valley Town.

In less than five minutes, under Gegil's strong control, the chaos in the camp was brought under control.

However, the two bright fires could not be extinguished. After realizing that they were poisonous, Gejir gave up the order to extinguish the fires and directly summoned the team to prepare for the overnight transfer.

Standing upwind, looking at the flames of this tragic defeat, an unknown fire could not help but rise in Gejir's heart.

At the same time, the leader of the secret guards also came to report the chaotic results.

Sir, a total of twenty-seven people who escaped have been brought back, but when we counted the number of people, there were still three missing...

Hearing this news, Gejir's face was obviously not very good-looking.

If he guessed correctly, these three people should be the masterminds of this turmoil.
