Chapter 43 Mutation and sudden wisdom
They left the underground river.
Because except for the ogre controlled by Ivita, all the ogres in the underground cave have been wiped out.
Ivita decided to act that night.
Otherwise, the Children of the Forest will soon realize that something is wrong with the ogres, and then discover that they are carrying the Forbidden Book of Ambrose, and that they have discovered that the Children of the Forest secretly control the Baron of Morrow.
Ivita and the others untied the two horses that pulled the carriage and used them as riding tools. They also wrapped the two famous swords with cloth strips to prevent them from being recognized by the children of the forest.
Then he put the pile of currency issued by an unknown country and era on the carriage.
As for the pile of rusty iron, it was really not of much use, but Ivita still took the pile of rusty iron with her, just in case she could meet a businessman who recycles iron raw materials!
Iron in this era is not cheap, even refined iron ore can be sold again.
Not to mention these are just rusty swords.
Then, he asked the ogres controlled by him to pull the carriage and serve as labor force for Alicia and Rayleigh.
The Hearthstone Witch used magic to strengthen the charm spell, making it impossible for the ogre to escape from the controlled state.
So, a group of them rode two horses, left the woods, and returned to a small plain area next to Baron Morrow's castle.
As soon as they returned to the castle in the middle of the night, they realized something was wrong.
First, candles were lit everywhere in the castle, and the flames illuminated every window of the castle.
The lights are bright.
Secondly, unlike during the day, there were more guards patrolling, and many infantry and cavalry wearing cotton armor and armor entered Baron Morrow's castle from the outside.
Ivita and the rest of the group couldn't help but feel their hearts sinking.
Could it be said that Baron Moreau has issued a conscription order for all parts of the baron territory?
The old witch's face changed greatly. "Your Majesty, let's run away quickly. They have discovered us. We don't have an army to fight them!"
"I have never fought in a war. That is not what a witch of my level should do!"
Branton's eyes flashed with fear. "Why did the Sons of the Forest suddenly summon the troops of various vassals? Why was the castle suddenly under martial law? Did the Sons of the Forest discover that I was missing? Your Highness, there are soldiers over there who saw us.
They're coming."
"We're screwed."
Not far away, five soldiers guarding the gate came over with weapons and looked very unfriendly.
Iveta's mind was spinning rapidly, "That's not right."
"If the baron issues a feudal conscription order to the territory, even if the vassals from all over the place are on the road immediately, it will take at least half a day to arrive."
"And the time you secretly left the castle was in the evening, which is not the right time."
"Besides, the vassals from all over the country cannot be on the road immediately, they need to prepare. If they can come to the castle at this time at the same time, they should have agreed on the time in advance."
Ivita reacted and said to everyone: "Everyone, these troops entering the castle have nothing to do with our affairs."
"This should have been an order that was given a long time ago, at least a week ago."
"We just happened to bump into each other."
Seeing everyone's expressions of sadness, Iveta tried to encourage them: "Have you ever heard of the saying, the brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road?"
"We are already here, so don't retreat casually."
"Push through!"
"We must have strategic determination and proceed according to the plan."
Brenton said fearfully: "Your Highness, I am afraid that I will show my cowardice."
"Leave it to me," Ivita said.
At this time, the guards were already standing in front of them.
When Blanton saw the leader, he was even more shocked. "Uncle Angel, why are you here too?"
Angel, who had a scar on his face, kept looking at Ivita and the others, with a cold light in his eyes. "You still have the nerve to say that the Baron was furious when he found out that you had sneaked out of the castle."
"What on earth did you do?"
"explain!"
When Angel yelled at him, Branton said subconsciously: "I'm going to find my sister, I..."
"Looking for your sister? You actually went out in the middle of the night to find someone who didn't exist at all, and you bothered so many people. These explorers actually went crazy with you." Angel's eyes turned around strangely, revealing a
With a strange expression, "You don't have a sister at all, don't you know?"
"Guests, I really made you laugh. This child actually has a problem here."
He pointed to his head.
Hei Lang immediately showed his understanding in a cooperative manner. "I think so."
The old witch believed deeply. "Then you should take good care of this kid and don't let him run around. Since this kid has a brain problem, he should be locked up."
"Save you any trouble."
"You won't even know how to die when the time comes."
For example, a certain demon.
Uncle Angel didn't notice that the old witch was ridiculing him, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "That's what the lady said."
Poor Brenton turned into a mentally ill person in just a few words of dialogue.
This is the terrible thing about using the skin of your loved ones to deal with you.
These children of the forest can easily stigmatize you.
If you don't know the existence of tree spirits, many people will immediately believe the evaluation of you from your relatives.
Angel said: "Dear guests, please go back. I want to take this useless guy back."
"Tonight is also a gathering day for our vassals from the Barony of Moro."
"You'd better leave."
Ivita suddenly realized that today was probably the day when the dryads were preparing to take complete control of the human army.
That's why he summoned the army strangely at night.
However, they can obviously spend a few years slowly replacing the military leaders of the barony one by one, so why are they in such a hurry to forcibly control the army?
In other words, why do they want to control the Barony of Moro, and what makes them so anxious to strengthen their control over the human army.
Ivita said to Angel, who was about to take Blanton away, "Please wait a moment."
"Through the efforts of our explorers, we have indeed discovered that Lord Blanton has no sister at all."
"But we made a new discovery. We found an ogre."
As soon as he said this, Black Wolf and others looked at Ivita in horror.
Why did you say it yourself?
Didn’t you agree not to expose it?
Angel suddenly turned his head, and his expression was extremely distorted for a moment. "You said, you discovered...what?"
"Your Excellency, I found the ogre." Ivita said calmly. "It was just over there in the woods. We fought with it and were injured as a result."
"Your Excellency Blanton and I want to report to Baron Moro that there are ogres near the territory."
Murderous intent flashed in Angel's eyes.
But at this time, the four human soldiers behind Angel all spoke in surprise.
"Ogre? That thing hasn't appeared for a long time. Is this news true? Explorer, please don't talk nonsense."
"If this is the case, we can understand why the baron summoned the army. It turns out that he wants to conquer the ogres."
Angel realized that there were four human soldiers behind him, and immediately calmed down his expression, trying to behave like a normal officer. "Tell me the situation in detail."
"I'll tell the Baron."
"You don't have to go."
Ivita shook her head. "The situation is too complicated. I want to tell the Baron personally."
"And Lord Blanton is also a witness to this incident."
"I want to see the Baron with Lord Blanton."
Ivita saw that Angel's hand was always on the hilt of the sword. He pretended not to see it and instead raised his lips. "If we discover the ogre, we can report it to the Explorers Association and get a reward.
Moreover, Baron Morrow should also give us some rewards."
