Chapter 112

"Did you drink last night?"

The young count looked at his wizard adviser in surprise, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help cocking up: "it seems that he drank a lot... What was the fun last night?"

"Just suddenly I can't help it." looking at each other's strange eyes, Lauren smiled disapprovingly: "by the way, relax your nerves recently."

Lu Wen nodded convincingly. He knew how much burden Lauren had borne, especially after the fire in the granary: "it's too hard for you these days. Let's go hunting when it's over and the weather turns sunny."

"This... I'm afraid not." with a wry smile, Loren took out the rescue letter from the elves and handed it to the count: "it was sent before."

"... have you begun to invade the ancient wood forest on a large scale?" after reading the letter, Lu Wen widened his eyes and filled his expression with shock: "no wonder we will meet ogres on the way here. It seems that several settlements have broken through the ELF's defense line!"

"I must inform my father about this as soon as possible. If the elves are finished, it is absolutely impossible for Shenlin castle to carry the attack of hundreds of Ogres - no matter what they want, they can give them. These monsters must not step across the border of the ancient wood forest. I want to see the elves' messengers in person!"

"I've already talked with the leader of their mission." at this point, Loren didn't forget to bend over a little and nod: "I'm very sorry, but the situation was very urgent, so I had to make an opinion."

"I promised them that as long as I was willing to stand on your side when the nobles of shenlinbao rebelled, Duke lottel would provide them with enough support. If you don't want to..."

"No, you've done very well. We're short of people we can trust now." Luwen waved his hand and smiled at Loren: "you're not only my wizard consultant, but also my friend. I believe your judgment."

"So, where are those elf soldiers now and how long will it take to get to the castle if necessary?"

"Not far away, a deserted farm is in place. As long as they give a signal, they will come," Loren explained. "After all, they are so different from humans. Coming rashly will certainly arouse suspicion."

The young count nodded, and then seemed to think of something: "speaking of this, those who were caught trying to destroy the granary are still in the dungeon, muttering nonsense all day!"

"One said he saw an ancient evil god, the other said he saw a vampire, and some guys vowed to hear the devil singing." speaking of this, even Lu Wen smiled: "how on earth did you do it?"

"Well, I'm a wizard." Loren shrugged his shoulders and smiled playfully. "I can show them something... That doesn't exist."

"I don't want to say it. I don't care anyway." the count shrugged his shoulders. "As long as they live well and let them go when their families send ransom, land and food - it's really cheap, these damn moths!"

"In the past, I would kill all of them regardless of everything. But now I am an earl, and I want to be a good earl, which means I can't do what I want and must be restrained."

"My father said that it's a good Lord to let nobles fear and civilians love." Lu Wen suddenly said to himself and smiled softly: "now I think this sentence may be a little narrow; it's wrong to blindly pursue the love of civilians or intimidate nobles with killing and criminal law."

"The Lord... Is like a judge. The rich may not be wrong, and the poor may not be good. Giving them justice and letting them perform their duties is what the Lord should do."

For the first time, Lauren looked at Reuven Fred with a little more respect.

Although this speech was full of lofty tone, it did look like a count. After only two months of polishing, Lu Wen completed his transformation. It is no longer the grumpy and impatient dandy when he first came.

This is also a good thing for Loren - although I hope Luwen can trust himself 100%, it doesn't mean I also hope the other party is a moron who depends on himself in everything. It's too tired.

It was less than ten days before Sir Aaron came back. Whatever Barry senna and his cronies want to do, it must be within ten days.

If you were yourself, when would you do it? Loren suddenly fell into a state of thinking, and his dark pupils scanned the hall of the castle.

The hall is still the hall of the past, but for some reason, the black haired wizard always has a sense of disharmony, as if something is missing. What should have been there is now gone.

"Where's will Senna?" Loren said involuntarily.

"I don't know. I haven't seen anyone since last night. I haven't seen anyone since now." Lu Wen shook his head: "maybe something's wrong. What's the matter?"

"Nothing, just very curious. Does anyone know where he has gone?" Lauren frowned and asked, "probably. Did he mention what to do before he left?"

"Nothing..." as soon as the words were out, Lu Wen immediately understood what Lauren meant: "you mean he left premeditated?!"

"I'm just guessing."

Loren summoned the guard knight standing guard outside the hall: "go and find it, and ask the servants in the castle to see who knows where will Senna has gone!"

"Find a few more people and check all the nobles' rooms one by one to see if they are still in the castle - if anyone has left, come back and report immediately!"

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly dropped to the freezing point. Loren and ruwen didn't say a word and waited patiently for the news from the guard knights.

Time passed, and when the guard Knight opened the door again, it was noon. The knight with sweat on his forehead panted into the hall and even forgot to salute Lu Wen.

"Everyone... All gone --!"

"What?!"

"We searched all the rooms, even the nearby stables and houses, but there was no one!" the guard Knight's eyes were also full of shock: "those adults seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and they were all gone!"

As expected... The calm black haired wizard narrowed his eyes slightly. Although the other party's action is surprisingly fast, he is not unprepared and has the strength to resist.

After all, if they were really going to take advantage of the chaos to kill ruwen, they would not joke about their little life and stay in the castle that would be attacked by the mob at any time.

"Immediately close the castle gate and order all castle guards to assemble and recall the guard Knights!" Reuven, who recovered from his amazement, immediately began to issue an order: "send a messenger to find Duke lottel, tell him the nobles of Shenlin castle to start a rebellion and send reinforcements as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

Looking at the knight who turned and left, the count with a long sigh of relief turned his eyes to Loren: "we can't wait for our father's reinforcements and Sir Aaron. Either tonight or tomorrow night, they will attack and occupy shenlinbao!"

"I'll summon the elves and ask them to help defend the castle." Loren nodded. "Although the number is small, it should play a big role - if they can stop the attack of Ogres, it must be no problem to guard the castle."

"If they were really willing to fight side by side with us and didn't betray us, I would try to persuade my father to form an alliance with the elves." Luwen's expression became more firm: "do you have any plans?"

"There's no doubt that we have to hold Shenlin castle. But if it's just like this, there's no reason to arrest Barry senna and his lackeys after the battle. Leaving the castle without permission is not enough to cut off their heads!"

Loren's tone was very firm: "so we must delay this battle, give them traps they can drill into, and let them see the hope of victory."

"After all... Only when the snake has drilled out of the cave can its head be cut off!"
