Chapter 117

Old John picked up the oak cup and took a deep sip. The inferior kumiss was pungent and astringent, making him cough repeatedly.

Wiping his mouth carelessly, Old John laughed dryly and said: "One hundred thousand Ant-men attacking the city! I didn't expect that we would encounter such a big scene."

"Looking for something to say." Barritt glanced at Old John indifferently.

Old John smiled awkwardly, "I just want to liven up the atmosphere."

No one paid any attention to Old John, he just drank wine in a dull mood. The atmosphere of war will put most people under great pressure, but these veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles are not included. Compared with ordinary farmers, mercenaries will never believe it.

Ant-Man can capture the town of Black Castle. The 30-meter-high city wall is solid and thick. More than 70,000 of the hundreds of thousands of people have received militia training. The town has abundant supplies, farmland and water sources. As long as he does not go out and interact with those

Ant-Man is fighting in the wild, and there is no chance of Black Castle being lost.

What really makes the veterans hesitate is that Captain Nelson is not here, Lady Lilia is not here, and Lord Victor is not here either. And Victor's subjects have been divided into three groups, the War Bear mercenaries and a small number of guards.

, the villagers of Zhuanyao Village led by Dean were in a group, and the rest of the people gathered around the village chief Molin.

"People's hearts are broken! It's hard to lead the team!" One-eyed Dragon Gru said with emotion.

Old John glanced at Gru sideways, "What's wrong? Gru, are you ready to stand up and take the lead?"

"I have this ability! I just can't stand those guys who are cheating! If we hadn't fought hard to break up the rear, would they still be able to sit here peacefully?" Gru said bitterly.

Everyone was also depressed. They did not expect that within a few days of escaping to Blackcastle Town, these people would start to make their own plans. Especially the villagers of Zhuanyao Village led by Dean were particularly treated by Haig. Even a blind man could see it.

After they came out, the York family planned to take in these people.

"This is not surprising. Your Excellency's foundation is still too shallow. Especially when you and Lilia are not here, and that boy Nelson doesn't know where he went. However, this is also a good thing. When the insect plague is over, those people will not be here anymore."

It is clear that you are trustworthy." Barritt said calmly.

Unlike those villagers, the War Bear mercenaries are more loyal to Victor, not only because Lilia is Victor's personal maid, Victor has won their respect and trust after insisting on breaking up. For soldiers, they are worth entrusting to them.

The companions on the back are the most important, not to mention that as a lord, Victor did not use them as cannon fodder, which moved the War Bear mercenaries even more.

Gru said nagging: "I don't know, what's going on with my head? Could it be..."

"Nonsense! That bastard Nelson doesn't know how to hide in that corner and live happily. This is not the first time! Besides, even you, a loser, ran out, what accident can happen to Nelson!"

Linda's eyes widened with anger, but there was unconcealable worry in her eyes. Victor had already sent a message to Lilia through Black Feather, and he was still wandering around the territory. Lilia was also taken to Rose Manor by Nicole. Now, only Na

Nelson's whereabouts are unknown. Although Nelson left the team more than once during previous missions in order to distract the enemy, but was there a time when everyone wasn't worried?

Barritt pondered for a moment and said: "We were able to escape thanks to the Dust Falcon guiding us. Nelson also brought two Dust Falcons with him. With his strength, nothing will happen."

During the ant plague, the War Bear mercenaries miraculously withdrew, and only two members died at the Beacon Tower. The successful escape this time was partly due to their rich combat experience, but mainly because of the two Dust Falcons who helped them

The direction was pointed out. The militiamen and ordinary guards who retreated first had no such luck. They lost almost half of their manpower. On the contrary, most of the women and children who had no ability to protect themselves escaped.

Linda forced a smile, and now she had no other choice but to wait. The York family had sealed off the town of Black Castle, and no one could leave here without their permission.

A thin little girl squeezed in from Gru's side, her eyes fixed on the black beans on the plate.

Gru shouted: "Little girl, why are you squeezing? This is not a place for you. Go and play."

"One-eyed dragon, what are you shouting for?" Linda showed her maternal instinct, pulled the little girl over and said softly: "Are you hungry? Take these beans if you want to eat them."

The little girl nodded, grabbed a handful of black beans and stuffed them into her pocket. At the same time, she rubbed her little face on Linda's cheek before jumping away.

Seeing Linda's complex expression, Old John sighed: "There are a lot of orphans like this now, so let the church take her away."

Linda took a deep look at Old John, then glanced at Barritt, and made a concealed gesture. The mercenaries around her immediately understood, and they all drank and chatted as if nothing had happened.

After a while, Old John patted Barritt's shoulder and shouted: "Old ghost, I have to pee, please help me."

"Go yourself!"

"Asshole, I have only one leg."

"I think you've drunk too much. Forget it, I'll give you a ride."

The two old mercenaries walked crookedly towards a deserted place. When they turned to a corner, they saw an old farmer with gray hair.

"I think I've seen you before. You are a villager from Group Four." Barritt said with narrowed eyes.

Balor nodded, "My name is Denver, Lord Barritt. I also have a name, Balor."

"Balor! You, aren't you dead?" Old John looked at Balor in surprise. He had seen Balor's body, and this man did not look like Balor.

"I'm not dead! What you saw was my substitute, and now I work for Lord Victor." Balor grinned. He wanted to find Barritt, and he called Old John here to prove his identity.

, because old John knew who he was.

Barritt glanced at Old John, and Old John explained Balor's matter in a low voice.

"Who are you? Why did you ask that brat to call us here?" Barritt asked coldly.

"I am now a secret agent under Lord Victor. The only people who know my identity are Lord Victor, Lady Lilia, and Captain Nelson." Balor said calmly: "Those of us withdrew from the Victor Territory.

Don’t you think it’s strange that all the people were gathered together, and no one was drafted into the militia and fed and fed all day long?”

Barritt and Old John looked at each other, "What do you mean?"

"In the area assigned to us, outsiders cannot enter at all, and most of the people around us are subordinates of the York family! In fact, we are all under surveillance! And Lady Lilia is also under house arrest!"

The old mercenaries looked at each other in shock. After Balor's reminder, they discovered that the area where they were placed had a city wall behind it, a security office on the left, a military camp on the right, and a road in front. The sheriff also specifically warned

Pass them, this is a time of war, and running around is not allowed, otherwise military law will be dealt with! This request was originally normal. After all, Blackburg Town is particularly crowded now, and it is easy to cause trouble if you walk around casually. But now it seems that the York family is

Isolating them on purpose.

"Why did the York family do this? Is Lilia in danger?" Barritt asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know!" Balor shook his head, "I don't care either. I just want to inform Lord Victor of the situation here. I need your help!"

"Why should we trust you? How can we help you?" Old Johnson looked at Balor up and down with cold eyes, like a devouring old wolf.

"You don't need to believe me. The information I pass on must be told to you. You can decide for yourself whether to pass it on to Lord Victor!" Balor: "As for the method, I know that you have the dust of Lord Victor's training.

Falcon..."

"The Dust Falcon can fly back to the hill camp, but Lord Victor is definitely not there. Your method won't work!" Barrit interrupted Balor.

Barritt can make the Dust Falcon return to the hill camp. In fact, most War Bear mercenaries know this command. Now, they can even let the Dust Falcon lead the way to avoid Ant-Man. The Dust Falcon can fly hundreds of kilometers

, Barritt never thought about finding Victor again.

Barro paused and said to Barritt: "I noticed that when Lady Lilia went to Rose Manor, she asked Kahn to obey your orders. You can try to find him."

"You know a lot of stuff!?"

Barritt frowned. Even he knew little about Kahn's identity. Unexpectedly, this old spy who claimed to be Lord Victor's subordinate knew the secrets better than he did, which made Barritt a little unhappy.

Balor chuckled. He was the first person to know that Victor had dead soldiers under his command. He could also see that Chen Falcon had been trained. If these dead soldiers couldn't spread the news, then there was nothing he could do, but no matter what,

, we must give it a try. Balor believes that since the Dust Falcon can send a message to Lilia, it can definitely send a message to Lord Victor. It’s just that everyone doesn’t know how to control the Dust Falcon.

"We don't need to worry about Lord Victor's affairs. We just need to do what we need to do. When Lady Lilia comes back, you can go to her to verify my identity, if she is willing to tell you." As he said,

Balor conveyed the information that needed to be passed on to the two old mercenaries.

"That's all? Are you kidding us?"

Old John looked up and down at Balor with suspicion. This guy who claimed to be a spy actually asked them to pass on some information that everyone knew. Shouldn't the information that the spy got know some secrets?

For such a layman, Balor could only roll his eyes. Secret agents were supposed to convey some accurate and ordinary information. Anything that Lord Victor didn't know was valuable information.

"Don't reveal my identity, trust me! I'm very useful to you! Also, please be calm. As long as Victor is here, Lady Lilia will be fine."

Watching Balor's back disappear behind the tent, Old John asked Barritt: "What should we do? Should we believe him?"

"The information is fine! You can trust Balor for once! He has already put his life in our hands." Barritt said in a deep voice.
