Chapter 451

    Carus did not return to the molten iron camp, he knew what choice the child on his shoulders had made, and now it was time for him to live up to his promise. Two old horses stand uneasily on the hillside, which is one of the few walking tools that molten iron can find now. Peggy struggled to keep the horses from escaping.


    "What''s wrong with him?" While fighting with the animals behind her, the witch inquired about the demons who came.


    Carus turned to look at the quiet child on his shoulder. "It''s just tired of crying." With that, he went to the horse, pulled off the interlining under the saddle and wrapped it carefully on the boy.


    "Someone''s coming." But even if she didn''t say it, the killer would have been aware of the identity of the visitor.


    Big Duke liehammer''s body is still a pair of broken armor, his bare limbs are covered with bandages, obviously injured. "Is it going?"


    The devil put the apprentice on the back of a horse and went to his old friend. The height difference forced him to lower his head to see Andre''s face. Although the dwarf''s life span is long, decades of time does not leave a mark on him. Compared with the appearance in memory, the big Duke of liehammer is fatter now, but his eyes are the same spirit.


    "The wizard has set out first, so yes, it''s time to start. I''ve been waiting too long for this kid


    "It''s not your war, man. You don''t belong to this country, and you have no obligation to fight for it. If you want to leave I''d rather ask you to leave. What happened here has exceeded my expectation. Maybe it''s a wrong decision to ask you to come here. " Andrea raised his head, which was rare among the proud sons of the mountains, and most dwarfs refused to look up because it made them feel inferior.


    Carus knew his old friend''s temper. He laughed and put his hand on Andre''s shoulder. "You and I know it''s impossible. This is no other place. This is his home. You stayed here to help him watch for so many years, now, I also have some strength to do. Otherwise, the next time I drink, I''m sorry to take a sip. "


    Seeing that he couldn''t persuade the killer, the dwarf began to laugh. He clapped his hand off his shoulder and gave Carus a hard blow on the chest. "Well, whatever you want. But you have to remember that we saved your life. Don''t let him waste it in boring places With that, he turned his head and walked in the direction he had come, but after a few steps he stopped again, "that boy, I mean the one on the horse''s back. I checked his life experience and found that all his family members had died in the collapse. The carpenter family who had just moved from the mainland had settled down for less than half a year. No one knows his name. Don''t bring him back. The people of this country will not accept living with monsters who kill their relatives. "


    "Monster?" The mob chewed the word in a low voice, then raised the volume. "It doesn''t matter if it doesn''t have a name. I''m going to get him another one anyway. It''s you. Be careful not to fight those long ears. You''re no match for them without a hammer


    "Fart, I can be worth ten fairies with one arm!" Andre waves his stout arms, and his years of training and his professional character as a forger really make them look powerful.


    Shrugging his shoulders, Carus went back to the horse and turned over. He checked the condition of the rat man and nodded slightly after confirming that the latter had fallen asleep from exhaustion. "Can I help you?" He said to page, who was trying to get on the horse. Of course, the green haired witch did not answer him, but tried to mount the horse on her own. Although it was an old horse, it was still a little bigger for Peggy. After losing the interest of watching, the demon race urged the horse to get close to him. Without waiting for the other party to resist, he grabbed the collar and lifted peg to the horse''s back. This action makes the latter unconsciously exclaim, but how can Carus care about this?


    "Hey With the reins shaking, the horses under the killer''s crotch opened their feet and slowly walked north.


    The morning light not only illuminates one place, but also many things happen under the common sunshine


    "Are you sure you want to do this?" Cheese looked at the man in the room who was tied to a chair and turned to Marcus.


    This is Castle Peak, located at the border of Heishan, south of Zhuoluo Town, about two or three days away. As for the man in the chair, he is the master of Castle Peak, Baron Horton. His title came from hereditary, the origin of which was that his ancestors had fought with the Heishan family and bought this small fiefdom for his descendants. However, by the time of Horton''s generation, the family no longer depended on fighting. Castle Peak produced the best arrows in the whole kingdom, and the war equipment made by their craftsmen was also directly supplied to the army of Cang lion.


    This may also be the reason why sitter arranged this place as Marcus''s first stop. There are still many soldiers who can fight in Cang lion today, but production on the human side has almost stopped. It is necessary for cities like Castle Peak, which have the ability to make weapons, to return to the king''s banner.


    But things are not going well, which is not to say that Baron Horton intended to take advantage of the chaos to separate the party, but because he is too timid. The man who was so afraid of rat man that he locked himself in the stone tower with a lot of food and water, felt like he wanted to stay out until the end of the plague. It is worth mentioning that there is no matching sanitation facilities in the tower. The Baron will vent directly out of the window when solving the problem of excretion. This also gives the tower a new name, "stink tower.".According to the meaning of cheese, no matter what, Castle Peak still works as usual after losing the baron. It will not be a problem to let this guy live and die on his own. Marcus could not agree with this view. As the king''s hand, he knew his responsibility very well. The restoration of allegiance to Castle Peak is only the first step. The wave of rat people will eventually fade away, and everyone''s performance in this natural disaster will be judged in the sun. Today, he can let Baron Horton live and die and directly take over Castle Peak, but this behavior is tantamount to depriving a real nobleman of his territory. Once known by other aristocratic lords, no one knows how they will react.


    Loyalty is hard to maintain, even if only superficial loyalty. In any country where aristocracy exists, there are more laws for this class than for other classes, and some of the privileges which are only open to the aristocrats are envied by the royal family. All this is to use heavy chains to firmly bind these guys who hold land and wealth in their hands to the whole country, so as not to let them have a chance to leave.


    "I''m sure I will. Please don''t confirm with me again. Every breath I take here makes me feel more nauseous Marcus put his handkerchief over his mouth and nose and said in a muffled voice.


    "Only this time, I agree with him, really." Lothar, who was standing behind the Baron, looked at cheese with a bitter expression.


    "All right." The mage has also been fed up with the stench in the room. This bastard is so crazy that he has to poop in his living room! There was a magic glimmer in cheese''s eyes, and the wooden windows of the tower were opened by invisible forces. Lothar, seeing the opportunity, kicked the Baron down the window with his chair and people. A thick hemp rope tied to the beam of the tower was attached to the Baron''s chair to ensure that the man in the chair would not fall to the ground and turn into a pool of mud with his excrement.


    The wizard took out a piece of chalk from his sleeve and drew on the hemp rope casually, "OK, this rope won''t break until you pull him up." With that, he dashed to the exit of the tower. It''s so smelly here.
