The strongest lord system

Chapter 123 Undercurrent
"We ambushed at a place not far from here yesterday, planning to rob a group of troops transporting money and food from Bloodstained City. But just last night, I brought a few men to sneak into their camp first. Inquired about the situation, but we found that what we encountered was not an ordinary army transporting money and food, and we saw a magician in their camp!" A trace of fear appeared in Zorro's eyes.

"Magician? Didn't you admit your mistake?" Allen asked suspiciously.

"No, I've been around for more than ten years, and I've seen a few magicians. That magician is wearing a black magic robe, and there is a badge representing the identity of a magician hanging on his chest." Zoro said There was still a trace of hatred in his eyes, and he continued: "I was hiding out of their accounts at the time, and I heard what they said about the young master, what plans, what rebels and so on."

Little Lord!plan!rebels.

Allen frowned. The rebels behind should refer to the rebels in the north, but what did the plan and the young master refer to?

"Did you hear exactly what they were talking about?"

Zoro pondered for a while, and he said, "I seem to have heard what the magician said that as long as the plan is successful, the young master can accomplish great things. I haven't heard anything else."

Imperial City!

Allen felt as if he was approaching something terrible.

"Then?"

"After that, the magician found our traces. He cursed at the subordinates next to him. I felt bad, so we were going to retreat. But the magician, he cast some magic on us, a few huge fireballs It hit us in the direction we were fleeing, and our formation was smashed in an instant, and then he let his army, the soldiers from the Bloodstained City, encircle us, and many of my brothers died at that time." Zorro's He clenched his hands tightly, but his left arm was also trembling.

Mira lowered her head and quietly took her father's hand.

"Later, I ran out with the rest of the people by chance. The magician seemed to have something important to do. He left with his people, but he ordered the soldiers in Bloodstained City to wipe out all of us, so They chased us all the way to the slope of the plain. Halfway through, I took the opportunity to let Mira escape, hoping that she would be spared. I didn't expect that she would run into you, my lord, and you will know what happened afterwards." Zoro After talking about his experience, he loosened his clenched fist.

"That's it." Allen always felt that there was something hidden behind this incident, especially that the magician was actually connected with Bloodstained City, which made Allen feel even more problematic, but according to what Zorro said, He also couldn't tell what secret they had.

"What are you going to do in the future? There are not many thieves left in your gang." Allen changed the subject and said that he can only take one step at a time about the magician. I hope he is overwhelmed.

Zorro touched Mira's head, which was leaning against him, and he sighed and said, "Actually, we came out to be robbers, and I understand that we will encounter such a situation sooner or later. But we also have principles, we don't rob Poverty only robs the rich. We don’t kill people and only seek wealth. In fact, those people like me are poor people. There are not many left now. I plan to find a good place with the little wealth I have accumulated in the past few years. , leading my daughter and brothers to live a stable life."

"That's not bad. After all, robbers are not a long-term solution. But if you go to other places, you don't have legal status, so you will inevitably encounter some troubles. Why don't you go to my Stormwind City?" Ai Lun suggested that although these people are robbers, at least they are not evil people, they are all forced by life.

"Go to your territory?" Zorro looked at Allen and said.

There was an interested look in Mira's eyes.

"Yes, my side is just under construction and needs a lot of manpower. You can take your people there, and I can write you a letter of introduction. My people will make good arrangements for you after seeing it. "Alan laughed.

"Aren't you worried about our robber's identity?" Zorro said in disbelief.

"You also said that you are all forced, as long as you are willing to live in peace and stability, but if you do bad things in my territory, I will not forgive you lightly." Allen pretended to be serious expression said.

"Thank you so much." Zorro said gratefully.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to bed early. I will take my army to the imperial capital tomorrow morning. You can take my letter to Stormwind City. I also have something to ask you to bring back." Allen Hit a Hache and said.

"Yes sir."

With the faint scent of grass in the air, the soldiers slowly fell asleep after a day of exhaustion.

"Are you all ready? Tie that horse's rein firmly."

The morning sun shines on the land, and a group of people are busy preparing.

"City Master, we are all ready and we can leave at any time." Carl walked over and reported to Allen Hui.

"Let the soldiers who were injured yesterday sit on the carriage, and we'll be ready to go right away." Allen said, patting his horse on the back.

"Yes."

Allen said to Zorro's father and daughter: "Okay, we are about to set off. You can take that letter of introduction and go to Stormwind City to find someone named Karen. You can find any soldier who knows. Hand over the letter I gave you to him, and remember to let him open it himself."

"Yes, sir, don't worry." Zoro said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll see you in Stormwind City when I'm done." Alan turned over and jumped on the horse and said, after finishing speaking, Alan drove the horse and started to follow the team.

"Your lord, have a good journey." Zorro said to Allen's back.

"Father, are we really going to that Stormwind City?" Mira asked her father looking at the crowd going away.

"The lord is enthusiastically willing to take us in. It doesn't matter if we go to the Stormwind City, and we promised the lord to send his things. They have saved our lives. We still have to do this. If that place is not suitable for us, we can leave later." Zorro looked at the two letters in his hand, one was opened with their letter of introduction inside, and the other was sealed, which was delivered by Alan. thing.

"But they actually used paper as a letter. What a luxury." Mira looked at the things in his father's hands and couldn't forget to sigh.
