Baron Ksvo knew in his heart that even if he was dissatisfied with the other party's reply, he had to accept this reality. Taking the opportunity to attack would only push a potential ally to the opposite side. In the treacherous curtain of future storms, no one could hold the throat of fate. Perhaps success or failure would be in any seemingly trivial detail.

The reputation of the witch of Heris's witch is widely circulated among the people. Many bards like to sing this mysterious witch. Unlike ordinary people, heris is a person who should not be ignored in the eyes of some senior forces in Elderland.

If she was just a person, she would probably have a mysterious whereabouts and unpredictable strength. The reason why she really had weight was the witch knights under her command that were not visible and undisturbed. Especially the mysterious twelve knights under her command, who were independent in any force. God knows how she has collected and won over the years to serve her.

"Since that's the case, I won't say much." Baron Ksvo said in silence for a long time. "But there is one thing I want to ask you to take action."

"Do you want me to help you join forces with Fernantes?" Herris looked at him with a smile, obviously guessing the other party's thoughts.

"This is a great opportunity to weaken the sacred temple. I believe you will not refuse this cooperation that is conducive to each other, right?" Baron Ksvo said without changing his expression.

"Indeed, it's hard for me to reject this tempting suggestion." Herris smiled calmly. "If it were put the day before yesterday, I would definitely agree to your request."

"What does it mean?" Baron Ksvo couldn't hear what she said, and his face immediately sank.

"Yesterday, Fernantes had secretly arrived at the headquarters of the Knights of the Celestial Knights outside Cologne, counting the time..." As he said that, Heris looked up at the distant sky. "Now he should lead the Knights of the Celestial Knights to the city of Cologne. It would be no easy task to deal with him at this time."

"Why didn't I receive this important information?!"

Kswo growled with an ugly look, his anger as if he was venting his anger to someone in the courtyard.

"Sorry! I just received the news."

A figure who couldn't see his face clearly appeared in the dense grass and trees in the courtyard and said in panic.

"According to the latest tips, all the pieces we placed around the other party have lost their news, I'm afraid-"

"I'm afraid Fernandez has already learned your plans, and is even planning to capture it in one go?" Heris continued leisurely.

“…”

The phantom in the plants did not refute it, it seemed that Heris had hit the truth.

"...I underestimated the Holy Church." Baron Ksvo said with a gloomy expression.

"Go away before Fernantes tracks you down." Herris said lazyly. "I don't want to expose myself so early."

"withdraw!"

Baron Ksvo stood up and left without any hesitation.

"Where are you who stayed in Cologne? Don't you take them away together?" Herris reminded him as he looked at the other person's back as he left.

"As chess pieces, they have completed their mission."

Baron Ksvo did not look back, and his meaning was self-evident. Those who stayed in Cologne became their abandoned sons.

Heris curled his lips and watched the other person gradually disappear into his sight. He put down the cold tea and stretched out the wonderful things. He seemed not in a hurry to leave, but closed his eyes and rested quietly.

After a long time, she opened her eyes and showed a strange smile on her face.

"Interesting boy!"

...

...

Located in a neighborhood street in Cologne.

Xia Lan raised her hand and waved her two swords to deal with the thugs who had no idea of ​​the thugs who had made a bad intention. He turned his head and glanced at the corner of his eyes to the growing crowd of people who were constantly following behind him. The number was about sixty or seventy, and it gathered on the streets that were extremely conspicuous, so no wonder the thugs launched attacks one after another.

Wipe the blood on the sword and breathe a sigh of relief. Frequent battles inevitably made him a little tired, even if his enemies were some miscellaneous fish that were not very threatening. But after all, he was injured, and a little violent movement would affect his injuries.

After waking up from the abandoned house, they showed their identities to the frightened brother and sister, and told them that they were planning to rescue the people in the suffering town. As a result, they successfully gained the trust of the two. Then they left the abandoned house and marched towards the west gate, which had the least patrol guards.

On the way, Xia Lan continued to solve some troubles through killings, and coupled with the propaganda of the two siblings, the number of townspeople who defected to the team gradually increased, thus forming the current situation.

Xia Lan knew that they would sooner or later be targeted by others when they made such a big noise, and a fatal crisis would come at any time. Why did he bother to expose himself and save these troubled villagers who had regarded him as a must?

Because he had a premonition that Mommer was planning an offensive against Cologne.

The result is nothing more than betting on your life to bet on your future.

Due to the uneven quality of the team and being attacked from time to time, they broke through the many obstacles and finally saw the outline of the Xicheng Gate from afar when they were exhausted. Unfortunately, everyone not only did not cheer, but instead fell into deep panic and despair.

On the avenue leading to the West City Gate, a series of fully armed soldiers seemed to have been waiting for a long time to block their way.

"Green?! Haha... I really didn't expect that I would meet you here."

A knight led by this army saw that Xia Lan, who looked fearless in front of the refugee, suddenly spoke. He lifted up his mask and revealed a familiar face.

Relf.

One of the team members who had performed the Trial Knights' Trial Mission was a realist who ruthlessly left his companions. Later, he was eliminated in the final assessment and became a reserve knight and entered the city guards as a non-commissioned officer.

Lamenting the magical encounters in life, when he thought that his once unattainable companion became the object of life and death, Relf's twisted heart couldn't help but feel a burst of joy.

On the eve of the Cologne turmoil, all the commanders of the army who were determined to the Holy Church were cleaned up one after another. In order to survive, Relph decisively betrayed the Holy Church and killed several trial students who were converted to military officers at the same time as proof of surrender, including Corett.

Not long ago, as a member of the head of the Xicheng Gate, he received an order from Shangfeng to lead the team to block a group of fugitive teams. He especially needed to pay attention to the unknown leader. It is said that the other party killed countless attacking thugs along the way, which was extremely dangerous. Shangfeng suspected that the other party was probably one of the knights who were seriously injured and fled to the temple after breaking into Cologne and causing riots.

In normal times, Relf never dared to face a sacred knight in good condition, but a sacred knight who was seriously injured was different. No matter how brave the opponent was, he could not escape the defeat of attacking him.

Relf, ​​who was eager to show off in front of the new master, naturally would not miss this opportunity, but he did not expect that the enemy he faced would be the familiar Green! For this reason, he was even more confident in capturing the "companion" of the newly promoted Knight of the Saint Knight.

Looking at the successful face of Relf's villain, Xia Lan immediately understood the cause and effect. It is true that it is not difficult for him to fight a bloody path with serious injuries. After all, there is no master in the army opposite who can stop him, but the refugees who protect him cannot escape.

Since he brought these refugees who trusted him here, will he escape without regard for their life and death? Unless he is willing to give up his reputation that he had finally built.

"Green! Let go of resistance and surrender..."

"Okay! But I have a condition."

Before Relf could finish his sentence, Xia Lan interrupted the other party directly.

Relf looked blew, feeling quite unhappy when he punched the empty space. According to normal procedures, he shouldn't have persuaded him to surrender with kind words, and then refused by righteous words. In the end, he could only order him to kill the other party with regret? As a result, the other party did not follow the expected routine, which suddenly disrupted his mind.

After he sorted out his thoughts and refuted his face, Relf lowered his face and said gloomy: "Green! Do you think you are qualified to talk to me now?"

Xia Lan quietly waved a sword at the tall camphor tree next to the road. Suddenly, half of the torso on the camphor tree slowly slid down.

"If you decide to surround me and kill me alone, how many lives are you going to pay?"

Faced with this situation, Relf's pupils shrank.

High level!

Xia Lan's understatement not only shocked Relf, ​​but also broke the inherent impression that Xia Lan had stayed in the past. It turned out that he had grown to such a terrifying level of strength without realizing it.

Relf was silent for a long time and made a compromise after several ideological struggles.

"Speak out your conditions."

"Let these people leave Cologne safely."

The sword in Xia Lan pointed at the refugee team behind her.

"This is not something I can decide. I need to communicate with Shangfeng before I can give you a reply."

"I agree, or not. I will only give you half a minute to consider!" Xia Lan could not see that he wanted to delay time and intend to rescue soldiers. She immediately activated the momentum of the upper realm to say aggressively.

The veins on Relf's forehead pounded, and his hands holding the reins were tightly held. For a moment, the whole street was extremely quiet.

"Let them go!"

Relf raised his hand and gritted his teeth and made this decision difficult!

"You go, they won't make things difficult for you. If I were to see it, I would let their lives be worth ten lives."

In the first sentence, he was telling the refugees, and in the second sentence, he was warning Relf.

"Brother Green...you won't be in trouble, are you?"

After a brief commotion, the refugees began to leave tremblingly through the separate roads opposite. When the brother and sister who met in the waste passed by him, the sister hugged him and said with tears in her eyes.

"Don't worry! I won't have any trouble, let's go with my brother."

Xia Lan smiled and patted her head, signaling her brother beside her to take her away.

After a long time, when the refugees had left safely, Xia Lan took a deep breath and looked up at the sun gradually falling to the west. He squinted his eyes, feeling an indescribable relief on his face.

"Green! Keep your promises and surrender."

“What if I decide to go back on my word?”

"With me here, you can't regret it."

At some point, Casar rode his horse and walked out of the military formation with a cold expression.

In Xialan's front, back, left and right directions, men in black appeared one by one.
Chapter completed!
