It''s not difficult for Marcus to guess who the rat man is. Even though his appearance and voice were completely unrecognizable, it was still possible to guess the gender of the rat man from his figure and the way he spoke. There is no doubt that the only woman who has had contact with the hand of the present King in the Kingdom and who can speak to him in this tone, and who may appear here, is undoubtedly the only one who has met with him several times, Gloria, the daughter of the Earl of Saron. You know, although Gloria didn''t like the bulky Marcus at the beginning, the poor Saron collar made the girl more pragmatic than her peers. At least she knew that the "fat pig" ridiculed by various aristocratic ladies had wisdom that they could not understand.
"Yes, it''s me." Gloria nodded, her mouth slightly cocked. It was supposed to be a smile of relief, but in human eyes, only the fangs under the lips could be seen.
"Sir Marcus, I don''t think you should take such a risk alone." Said Andrea, who was behind the king''s hand. He frowned and looked rather impatient. To be honest, the angry lion doesn''t care who the rat man is, because no matter what she used to be, she is only one of the ugly monsters.
This time, however, Marcus did not readily agree with Duke Kroger''s proposal. He reached out to protect his knights from recklessness. He even turned back to the knight close to Andrea and suggested with his eyes that he should not let the Lord make any sudden and irreversible moves. Then, under the gaze of all the Allied soldiers and generals on the wall, Marcus took two steps forward, exposing himself completely to the scope of the rat man''s attack, and then bowed down, as if the rat man were the noble girl in front of him.
"It''s a comfort to see you again, Ms. saloon. I''m sorry for what happened to you and your family. However, I hope you can understand that although you still have the name of Saron, your identity has become the enemy that the kingdom must eradicate. Please don''t take any chances. If you just come to say hello to me, your purpose has been achieved. In the next battle, there is no room for Marcus and Gloria. We are just the hands of the king of the grey lion and the rat man. I''m sorry, I don''t know your position in the same clan, but I think you should understand what I mean, right? " After this long diplomatic speech, Marcus said two words to Gloria with his mouth. Go.
But Gloria just continued to smile, her eyes glancing over the man in front of her and at the soldiers behind him. "I have seen too many family flags. Since the day of its completion, Xigu city has not been so lively. I''m sorry to all of you. It''s rare that the nobles of the Kingdom get together, but the sarons have not cleaned up their own city. Fortunately, it''s not too late now. Please look at it. I won''t let the name of the family be disgraced. Tomorrow, the town will be clean again. "
The mouse man''s words once again confused people. They didn''t understand what Gloria meant. And she did not seem to further explain the intention, and turned around with the bodyguard out of the firelight range. But when many archers couldn''t help but shoot them to death, Gloria turned her head and looked at her former compatriots for the last time. "Before sunrise tomorrow, we will clean up this city. So please give the last dignity to the Saron family. Please don''t send troops until Longji mountain is illuminated. "
With that, the mice went out of the place where the torch could illuminate completely, leaving only the wind blowing the dark green flame.
Marcus stood silent for a few seconds, then turned and walked back. He looked forward to meet his nobles and noticed that some of them had pulled out their weapons. And he said, in a solemn tone never seen before, "take your weapons back, gentlemen. Can''t we meet the last demands of the sarons? They have been guarding the northern part of the kingdom for generations and deserve our respect. "
"But she is already..." A nobleman retorted, but before he had finished his words, he was roared back by the king''s hand.
"She is the master here! Although there was no ceremony, Gloria salon was the last countess in the Kingdom pedigree. We must accept her request! " It may be because of the deterrent effect of Marcus'' angry voice when he speaks, or because of his position as king''s hand and commander-in-chief of the coalition, or more likely because of the terrible light in his eyes when he said this. There was no objection from the nobles and soldiers at the scene, including Andrea. The soldiers untied the bowstring, drew back the scabbard of their swords, and returned to their previous posts as quietly as at the time of assembly.
Marcus goes back to his place overlooking Valley City, where you can see that the army of the krogers is still climbing the wall in an orderly manner, and the rat people are not harassing them. When the wind blows through the holes in the wall, it echoes like a giant whimpering. In this atmosphere, the angry lion came to the hand of the king.
"What you said just now will make some people dissatisfied. Some of the soldiers already think you''re acting weird
"And you? What do you think, sir Andrea? "
The Duke of Kroger laughed and put his hands on the wall. "Respecting the tradition of nobility and the glory of the family will make the old family appreciate you more. They will believe that you have inherited the will of the former king, which is good for us. Besides, I can probably guess what the lady wants to do. It''s not bad for us to let the rat man fight the devil first. ""But that means I''m wrong. The devil is not called by the rat
"Well, is that important? Demons and rat people, who betrayed anyone is not strange, just make up a reason is enough. It is pity for Sir Atticus, but a man of his age should have abdicated long ago, shouldn''t he? I think you are very popular with the Knights. Maybe you can also hold the title of Knight of the Kingdom besides the hand of the king? "
"Aren''t you afraid of the bad consequences of letting me have the power of speech and military power at the same time?"
The angry lion laughed a few times and seemed to hear some funny joke, "you are a smart man, Marcus. But as far as I know, you''re the only smart guy in the Taylor Riel family. What I want is not the regent for a time, my dear friend. I want the royal family of Cang lion and change his name to Kroger. So, you see, I don''t care about people like you around me. The power of running a family can''t be achieved by one or two generations. Even if you are in power, what can your descendants do? I''m looking forward to that day. "
"I''m afraid it will disappoint you. Like Xianwang, I don''t think I have any intention of getting married."
"Oh, that''s a surprise. I also want to introduce my sister to you. She has always admired your talent. "
Marcus stood up straight and did not intend to stay any more. He saluted Andrea, "my talent is not worth mentioning. It''s just that Mrs. Wang thinks highly of me. Let me leave first. There won''t be much time to rest tonight. " After that, he did not care about the other side''s reaction and went to his tent. However, in the process, the king''s hand glanced at the direction of most of the kingdom in the south, where there was no sulfur smoke, and the cold moonlight on the earth outlined the silver.
In the distant outline, several figures just passed through the woods.
