92. But it's like an old friend

Thanks to Sishui Nianhua, flhs3 and Fang Fuyun for their monthly tickets, the second update today

---

Although he did not agree with General Goblin's strength, the existence of this creature itself attracted the attention of Lance.

If the two merchants in front of him did not lie, what exactly caused such a Goblin army to suddenly appear on the territory of the abyss, and the huge number of Goblin troops would be worthy of commercial rights.

And the problem is that these goblins only started to attack after the eternal darkness. Before that, Lance had never heard of goblins surrounding Ferront County. If this was their intention, then when did the goblins actually have this IQ?

Lance and Heigang looked at each other, and it seemed that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Although he had an idea in his heart, Lance did not expose his emotions. He changed his question casually: "I'm quite curious since I was surrounded by a large Goblin army and hit General Goblin again, how did you escape?"

"The situation was too chaotic at that time, we were divided into two teams and ran separately. General Goblin chased another team of people," the merchant recalled.

"Then you escape?" Lance couldn't help but smile.

"No, County Master," the merchant seemed to hear the teasing tone in Lance's words and shook his head hurriedly: "In fact, no matter how hard we ran, the group of goblins kept chasing us behind us. Several of our companions who were with us were dead and injured. We almost felt despair, at this time..."

"Just say it. What kind of atmosphere are you inciting!" Lance slapped the table unhappy, which made him suddenly think of a noisy short man.

The merchants naturally did not dare to show off in front of the county magistrate. Although they had invested in this business, half of them were Lance's money, which means that Lance was the biggest loss in this incident.

Thinking that the county magistrate might be angry and wanted to vent his feelings, the merchant quickly lowered his head, and even his voice became smaller: "We were saved."

The answer was a lot simpler. There must be lone adventurers and mercenaries in Feronte County. It is not uncommon to take the lead in this situation. If you are lucky, you can meet the patrol team in Feronte County. Just as Lance knew it and reached out and wanted to wave away the two of them. When discussing countermeasures with Heigang Mosen and the others, the guy who had been relying on his companions except when he first introduced his name, he opened his mouth and added: "That person is here too."

"Who?" Lance didn't understand what the other party meant, he just felt that the other party might have said it wrong.

"The one who saved us."

"That is to say, you were actually rescued by one man from the Goblin army?" Lance raised his eyebrows.

The two businessmen looked at each other and said confidently: "That's right."

Heigang would come to Lance and whisper: "If it is really like the merchants said, then this person should be at least at the level of legend (B level)."

Lance nodded. His eyes were still at the businessman in front of him: "So where is the one who saved you now?"

"She followed us to Guruling and left alone." The merchants also knew that the answer was not what Lance wanted, so they lowered their heads and avoided the sight of the county magistrate.

When Lans felt depressed when he heard such an answer, he waved his hand and signaled the two merchants to go down first and wait for Mosen's arrangement.

As soon as the two merchants left, the room suddenly became quiet. Everyone had their own thoughts. After a while, Mosen spoke carefully: "Mr. Lance, what do you think about this matter?"

Mosen's identity is the Finance Minister of Gululing. Although this matter is related to the business group, it must be regarded as a military service after all. Military power has always been controlled by Lance himself.

"The situation is unclear now, and we can't just listen to the two merchants saying this. After all, it's too strange that you said such a large number of goblins appeared in the territory of the kingdom." Lance said.

Morson thought about the meaning of Lance's words and frowned slightly: "What do you mean is that the group of businessmen lied?"

"I didn't say that either, I just said the words of the merchants. "Lance said so. Of course, Mosen knew what he meant. There were indeed many cunning guys among the merchants. Lance analyzed: "The foundation of this group of merchants is in Guruling, and you picked it out again. I don't doubt that they were really robbed, but you don't know the temper of the merchants. A group of cavemen can be called tens of thousands of troops by them. I really don't know if they are afraid of losing goods and being punished, so they inadvertently "exaggerated" a little."

Not to mention, this joke actually happened. Even when Lance dealt with Earl Dupont, Lance sent cavemen to open tunnels and smuggle goods, and some merchants swear to rumor that they had seen a army of tens of thousands of monsters with their own eyes. This rumor once caused panic among the merchants. If Lance had not clarified the rumor later, he would not have known what it would have been like in the end - and the authenticity of the news mentioned by the merchants could be seen from this.

In this regard, Mosen was also a member of the experiences with Lance, and he also felt that he had nothing to say about this matter.

However, no matter how despised, Lance's cautious personality still made him arrange for the next action: "No matter whether the merchants say it is true or false, it is certain that we have a batch of goods robbed. Let Feronte County send troops to investigate and see if there is any specific clue. Then send a few people to Dongmen County to ask if there is any similar information there - if this group of goblins really has the scale that the merchants say, it is impossible to only harm one Feronte County."

The instructions made by Lance were impeccable. Morson took a letter of Lance's order and left.

Then Lance turned his head and looked at Heigang again: "Go and say hello to Vasqi, Rude and others, so that they can pay more attention to the new faces that have appeared recently."

Heigang nodded. He knew that Lance refers to the person who saved people in the merchant's mouth, a master of such a level. Lance intended to fight for it.

There was nothing else on this day. Lance continued to do business and was busy until late at night. After driving Fiona away, Lance also packed up and prepared to go back to his room to go to bed.

Lance's bedroom is not far from the study, and the master bedroom at the end of the corridor is Lance's room. It has passed 12 o'clock, and Lance yawns forever. The things they are worried about recently made him feel a little tired of running. After all, his territory has changed from one county to three, and Lance doesn't expect to be forced to be desperate by Victor, so he can only take advantage of the opportunity to be a little cruel to himself.

He pushed open the door casually, took off his coat and threw it on the coffee table next to him, and then buried his body in the soft bed. A feeling of fatigue hit Lance like a sea of ​​rushing, but he could not move his mind. He could not sleep peacefully, as if he was stuffed with a sponge, soft and squeezing his brain cells.

What's going on?

Lance recalled hard, and suddenly he remembered that the door was not closed when he pushed the door in, and in this room without light, the shadows in the depths of the darkness seemed to be so strange?

Lance almost suddenly sat up. He went to see the direction of the door again. He clearly remembered that he jumped onto the bed after entering the door, but the door there seemed to be an invisible thrust, which he locked.

In an instant, the sleepiness was evaporated by the cold sweat that emerged from his body. Lance stared at the surroundings with vigilance. His right hand had already touched the dagger hidden under the pillow. This was not Lance's confidence in his skills, but that he had to at least have a self-protection weapon before rescue came.

But Lance's movement was forced to stop halfway through - someone grabbed his wrist, and Lance had no more scruples, so he shouted loudly: "Black--" But the voice had just begun, and everything behind was cut off. Lance found that he was covering his mouth now.

Lance was so angry that he cursed that the damn guards could not even guard the gate. He easily put the assassin in, but his face was calm. The more he reached this point, Lance became more rational. He knew clearly that panic had no effect of promoting the other party's arrogance.

"Who are you?" Although Lance was completely silent and coded when he said this, Lance believed that the other party should understand what he was asking.

Lance did not expect the other party to answer him, but he was trying to delay time. The room where Heigang lived was not far from him. Although Lance's shout was cut off halfway through, it was at least a little missed. With Heigang's ears, Lance believed that he could probably detect it.

"Xiaoqing Ren, don't you remember your sister?" Someone behind him answered.

What Lance didn't expect was that the assassin who came this time was still a woman. He was scared and sweated in a cold sweat just now. But now after he reacted, he suddenly felt a tempting fragrance floating on his side. What surprised Lance the most was that from the words of this woman, they seemed to know each other.

Thinking of this, Lance felt familiar with the other person's tone, the other person's voice, and the faint body fragrance.

"Angelia?" When Lance said this name, he found that the other party had let go of his mouth.

But the next second, Lance swallowed the thoughts completely.

This kiss was long and awakened a memory of Lance.

This woman named Angelia had dated Lance for a while in the Lord's Fort. She appeared like fire and disappeared like wind. Until today, Lance still couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two was.

——She kept calling herself a little love-people as always.

When the two separated in the passion of this kiss, Lance looked at the charming face in the darkness, making Lance a little confused whether he was in reality or in a dream.

"Angelia, is it really you? I thought you had already..."

"Shh." The beautiful woman pressed her fingers on Lance's lips. She let her long hair slide down her shoulders and cover the tip of her eyebrows. Her lazy temperament was so close to each other, but she exuded endless temptation. She raised her eyebrows and curled her red lips charmingly, just as she remembered, "Hug me."

Lance seemed to have finally given up, hugged her tender waist and pressed her under him.

The spring scenery is beautiful all night.

---

"Mr. Lance, Lord. Lance, get up."

Such a familiar voice came to my ears.

This is Layla's voice...

The surroundings are still very dark, after all, it is the season of eternal darkness, and the reference to distinguish between day and night has disappeared.

Lance opened his eyes reluctantly, and he saw Layla in maid outfit standing in front of him, looking at him with a worried look on his face.

The scene seemed wrong, and Lance quickly remembered what happened last night. If Layla was here, was it considered a robber in the bed? He quickly turned his head to turn to the edge of the bed, but no one was there except him.

At this time, Rela's complaining voice also reached Lance's ears: "Mr. County Master, no matter how tired he is, he can't sleep in clothes."

Lance looked down and saw that he was indeed wearing yesterday's clothes. His coat was thrown on the coffee table and he had not moved a single centimeter.

This means...

Lance quickly sat up from the bed, ran out and finally found Heigang. When he asked if he had heard any special sound last night, the other party looked at Lance in surprise and shook his head.

Damn, Lance couldn't help but blush. He didn't expect that he would actually regard spring-dream as a reality, and what he dreamed about was about that woman...

Of course he didn't notice the beautiful figure sitting on the eaves of the room outside the window, covering his mouth and laughing secretly.
