Lord of Rot

Chapter 592 Bloody but Merciful (Page 12)

"what happened?"

Little George's attack has been going on for a long time. The invincible artillery and the Black Sheep Heavy Armor Mercenary Group are surrounding the castle gate and dare not move forward.

"There's something terrible in there."

"horrible?"

Little George squinted his eyes and saw only a crowd surrounding him in the distance: "Where is Goethe?"

"I just rushed over."

The town gate opened, and Goethe, the leader of the mercenary group, jumped off his horse: "What's going on?"

He also noticed the situation here. He had an absolute advantage, but for some reason he was suddenly blocked at the door. The people in the mercenary group were hesitating and frightened, as if they had seen something terrifying.

"Immortal monster!"

"It's the projection of God!" Elf White Falcon, who followed Goethe on horseback, hugged his long sword and said, "The projection of the god has the characteristics of immortality, and this god is very powerful. The more he kills, the stronger he becomes."

"God? Bai Falcon, that's not funny at all. If there is a god in the world, it would be really shameful for him to personally participate in this war."

Goethe put on his helmet and pulled out his long sword. The sound of an urn came from the helmet: "Are you interested in killing gods with me?"

"I didn't want to die." Bai Falcon also jumped off the horse: "But you can give it a try. The power inside is not very strong. I just want to see if God is really immortal!"

Speaking of killing gods, Bai Falcon's eyes flickered with persistence.

When the two entered the door, no one knew what happened inside, but after more than a dozen breaths, Goethe flew out upside down, hit the ground and vomited blood and was seriously injured. Bai Falcon even broke an arm and fell into coma.

"Retreat!" Goethe shouted: "Retreat immediately!"

Little George Kein, who already had an absolute advantage and planned to counterattack the Royal City, was blocked by a "god". Not only did he not dare to continue fighting, he instead abandoned Feixiang Valley and fled eastward, just like he had abandoned the Royal City and fled eastward. , run simply.

Two days on the run.

"Your Majesty, ahead is Three Forks Fort."

"Three Fork River Castle, who is the lord?" Little George had no impression of the East Gorge nobles. The only East Gorge nobles he could remember were the Golden Thorn Sword family and the Porcupine family.

"This one……"

The attendants who escaped together were also confused. This was the minister's job and was not within their scope of work.

"My little bear, what's wrong?" Queen Orianna asked as the carriage window opened.

"We'll have a place to rest soon, mother," said little George.

"That's good." Queen Orianna breathed a sigh of relief. Her charm needed to be set off by tens of thousands of dresses, the queen's crown, and the pursuit of popularity.

On the run, she was just an ordinary down-and-out woman with a haggard look on her face.

"Your Majesty," the sentry who went to inquire rushed back: "The front is the territory of the porcupine."

"Clarence?!"

After thinking briefly, little George shouted: "Sir Goethe!"

"Yes!" Goethe, the leader of the mercenary group, appeared in front of Little George dragging his wounds.

"We have a castle to rest at tonight. I need you to knock down the Three Forks Castle before sunset. Are you confident?"

Goethe did not hesitate: "Before sunset, you will live in the castle!"

Crisis also represents opportunity!

And based on Goethe's understanding of Little George during this period, if he really dared to hesitate, Little George's sword would definitely cut him down.

"Very good! I'm waiting for your good news!"

Little George dismounted. He was tired from riding and wanted to take a good rest.

Along the way, little George felt aggrieved every time he thought about how he was driven away from the Royal City and fled after arriving in Feixiang Valley for only a few days.

After watching Goethe lead the mercenaries to slowly advance to the Three Forks River Castle, little George walked to Queen Orianna's carriage. The mother and son were quietly discussing something in the carriage.

With the level of force of the Black Sheep Heavy Armor Mercenary Group, it would be a piece of cake to attack a Sancha River Fort that was basically unguarded.

The trumpet sounded.

The heavy artillery fired first to bombard the castle gate.

Two cannons blasted open the door.

Then the cavalry charged.

When the sun was still half over the mountain, little George was already sitting on the lord's chair of the castle.

That night, little George called Goethe into his room.

Bai Falcon was not assigned a separate room. Those mercenary bastards violently assaulted women immediately after entering the city. Everyone needed a room. For mercenaries like him who needed to take turns to watch the night, several people lived together.

Suddenly, White Falcon's long ears moved.

He stood up and put on his clothes, and was about to walk to the door. After thinking for a while, he turned back and picked up his sword, then opened the door and left the room.

Outside the door, Goethe was leaning against the wall.

"It's time for us to escape again," Goethe said: "Go to the north and meet the king's fiancée, where he will start his true rise."

Bai Falcon was very indifferent: "I won't go."

"why?"

"I'm afraid of the cold."

"..."

Goethe advised: "You long for peace. We will definitely change the pattern of this world and quell the war."

"I need you, Bai Falcon!"

His sincere gaze only received an indifferent response from Bai Falcon.

"I'm not interested in saving the world."

Early the next morning, the soldiers who had followed Little George from Flying Valley were shocked to find that the king was gone, and all the key members of the Black Sheep Heavy Armor Mercenary Group were also gone.

But everyone was quite calm, at least the king left them a castle.

……

After Li Qi got the news, he immediately sent people to Sanchahe Fort.

Nowadays, Sanchahe Fort only has a poor output of various alchemical materials and ores that are of some value, but they are not worthy of its large number of troops. Otherwise, the revenue will not be enough to feed the soldiers and horses.

The nearly abandoned castle was actually taken advantage of.

His corpse watched the whole process and saw little George coming in, but escaped before dawn.

“A wise choice.”

Li Qi sat in the red rose's left-hand position in the Roaring Castle's meeting hall, and his status was self-evident.

When Duke Yaori was still alive, Li Qi could only sit in the corner like a minion, listening to the great nobles talking and fighting for a few hundred gold days.

No one would care about him then.

Now, he is sitting here without saying a word, but everyone will subconsciously look at him when they make suggestions or ideas.

Nobles and lords who pledged allegiance came one after another.

It also allowed Li Qi to truly see how many nobles there were in the East Gorge.

The small lords with only a dozen soldiers in the army also made a special trip to swear allegiance. Li Qi was worried that they would come to him to reimburse their travel expenses.

It finally quieted down.

Duke Red Rose turned around and asked, "How is it?"

"Huh?" Li Qi was stunned for a moment, and then understood what she was asking: "It's nothing. The loss of Three Fork River Fort is not big, but little George has fled to the north."

She knew that Li Qi had always been inclined to kill Little George first, then conquer the northern border, and finally attack the East Gorge.
