Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 709: Ransom

"I want to see my guard... しw0." Lance said solemnly, and now, the only way to summon the guard is to prevent accidents.

The unicorn rider shook his head and said: "Mr. Lance, we are enough to protect your safety, so there is no need to alarm your guards."

Hearing this, Lance felt cold. It was obvious that even his guards had been detained, but this was what he expected, so he was not too surprised. Only his face turned gloomy, he said to the knight: "Thank you to tell Sir Unter, I will remember everything he did, and I just hope he won't regret it in the future."

The knight nodded: "I promise to bring it there."

Lance hummed and closed the door hard. After a while, the knight heard a sound of holding a table and throwing a chair inside, and it was obvious that Lance was venting. The two knights looked at each other, but they couldn't stop it. Anyway, their task is to ensure that Lance does not step out of here. As for what he is doing inside, it doesn't matter to them.

it's dark.

Lance was panting, sitting under the high window with disheveled clothes. The door opened and a guard came in to light a candle for him. The Unicorn Castle still uses traditional lighting, so when the candle is lit, the flickering candlelight reflects the broken tables and chairs on the ground with long shadows. Lance sat in the shadows, watching the long shadows on the ground intertwined. He thought the guards were bringing dinner at the same time, but they said, "Mr. Lance, Sir Unter invites you to the hall."

"Did he finally want to see me?" Lance sneered and stood up. Arranged his clothes gracefully, and said with a bit of arrogance: "Don't lead the way?"

Walking in the corridors of the castle, Lance glanced at the back group of knights and soldiers. They always followed Lance and followed suit, as if afraid that Lance would be lost. Lance obviously felt that the atmosphere in the castle was not quite right, and Unte didn't seem to be afraid of himself or Rekerd to summon himself again. Standing at the entrance of the hall, he stopped and said solemnly, "Where is my guard?"

"Mr. Lance, please don't waste Sir Unter's time." The knight opened the door for him and pushed him.

He was angry.

But there was an expressionless face in his eyes, and Lance sighed and had to move forward. The hall was brightly lit, and in front of the battle flag with two unicorn beacons, there was a magnificent stone seat. It was originally Daniel's seat, but now sits the young Ante. Sitting on the obviously oversized stone seat, the boy looked a little cramped. Lance noticed that he kept looking at the person on the left. It was a young man who seemed not much older than Angte.

When he turned his head to look, Lance first saw a pair of clear blue eyes. But I don't know if it was because of the lights in the hall that those blue pupils turned into a faint brown color. The man showed a charming smile, Lance admitted, this was the gentlest smile he had ever seen. It's as gentle as the spring breeze, so that no hostility can arise.

"Mr. Lance." Unter coughed dryly.

Lance regained his senses, settled, restored to the past, and raised his head and said: "Sir Ont, what do you mean? Not only did he go under house arrest, he also detained my guards. For me, to Count Reckard, It's all extremely rude!"

Ante frowned. The young man had been a viscount for a while, and he was no longer the little young master back then. He already has the consciousness of a jazz, one of which is that Lance despise him so much. He simply snorted and didn't look at Lance, but said to the man with strange pupils: "Sir Edward, he is Lance. Now, I will leave him to you. It is at your disposal."

Lance was surprised, he had heard of it before. During Allen's departure, all affairs on his territory were represented by another baron. The name Edward has been in his heart since Hilo's defeat last time. But it was only now that he saw Edward for the first time, unexpectedly so young.

Moreover, listening to Ante's meaning, it seems to betray him?

"What's going on?" Lance cried: "Angte, are you going to break the contract? This will arouse the anger of Earl Reckold, have you figured it out?"

Angtemo answered, and Edward stood up and said for him: "Master Angte has naturally figured it out. Your adults know very well that an earl who is far away in the mountain city of Dorne is angry and a powerful neighbor who can become an enemy at any time. This How to choose between the two, who is the enemy and who is the friend, the adults know very well."

He clapped his palms.

The door of the hall opened again, and a rough and domineering momentum poured in from outside the door. Lance was the first to bear the brunt, his heartbeat accelerated and his face pale. He turned his head and saw Broy walk in with the Hammer of Forbidden City. Behind Bloy, two soldiers came to Lance with a stretcher. On the stretcher was a blood-stained man. He seemed to have passed out, but the ups and downs of his chest indicated that he was still alive.

"Glenn!" Lance screamed, of course he recognized the man. Although he didn't like Glenn's rudeness and unkindness. Krance had to admit that Glenn's combat power in Dorne Mountain City was only below Hilo, otherwise he would not be able to be the deputy commander. But now the man was thrown on the stretcher like a tattered puppet, apparently seriously injured. Even Glenn was wounded like this, what about the army in Dorne Mountain?

"This is the Glenn deputy regiment? Well, there are fifty soldiers, plus Mr. Lance. I am looking forward to it now. How much ransom will Earl Laked pay for you?" Edward said with a smile. "It just happens that our territory recently reduced a lot of taxes to encourage farmers to plant. I am worried about the emptiness of the vault. Now, I have solved a little urgent need."

Lance's face is as earthy~www.readwn.com~ intermittently said: "Impossible, we have 400 people, so why..."

"Believe it or not, the truth is here. Mr. Lance, please come to our Dawn Castle as a guest." Edward made a "please" gesture.

Bloy made a gesture, and immediately two mountain king soldiers stepped forward, holding Lance between them. Lance left the hall reluctantly, while Edward turned and bowed to Unter, "Thank you for your support, Lord Unter."

Unte waved his hand weakly, God knows how bad he was when he saw the fifty or so listless prisoners and Glenn who was unconscious. If he had any thoughts before, then this time, Edward directly used overwhelming power to show him that offending a powerful neighbor is far more troublesome than provoking the earl in Dorne Mountain City.

At this time, he had almost no choice. Little Sir seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and smiled reluctantly: "Please say hello to Lord Ellen for me."

"Your thoughts, I must bring them for you." Edward smiled.
