That burly man was obviously the leader of the Silver Star Army and the commander of this crusade against Blackwater City.
The woman next to her is the daughter of Earl Silver Star who was originally supposed to marry Karen.
Now that the marriage has broken down, according to Earl Silver Star's idea, as long as his eldest son Orton leads an army to defeat Karen, he can take Blackwater City into his pocket.
But Shirley insisted on coming to Blackwater City.
She really wanted to see what kind of capital the man who dared to reject her father had and whether he was qualified to be her husband.
"What? You don't really want to marry that Karen, do you?"
Next to him, the burly man raised his eyebrows, with a hint of joking in his tone. If the former Lord of Blackwater City was still alive, then this marriage might be beneficial to both parties.
But now, Karen has lost the qualification to marry Earl Silver Star.
The last time the other party rejected Earl Silver Star, in a sense, he had cut off all his escape routes. With Earl Silver Star's character, he would not give him a second chance.
"I know what you're thinking."
Shirley rolled her eyes and sneered, "In terms of the current situation, whether to marry with Blackwater City or not is no longer important."
"What's more, a lord who has lost his territory is not qualified to be my man."
"But I'm just curious, how the so-called Karen, who is probably about the same age as me, has the courage to refuse my father's order."
Shirley said, the luster in her eyes flickering slightly.
"Are you a fool or a reckless man? I'm really curious."
Shirley raised the corners of her lips a little, and there seemed to be a flash of interest in her eyes. In her opinion, Karen, the lord of Blackwater City, rejected Earl Silver Star, which was undoubtedly a very stupid thing.
The other person is either an idiot or a hot-headed fool.
"As you wish."
Next to him, the burly man Orton shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Anyway, there are still two days before you can meet that Karen."
"When the Blackwater City Gate is breached, you can do whatever you want with that guy."
For Orton, there is almost no suspense in this crusade. Blackwater City cannot stop the Silver Star army.
Swish!
Above the treetops, crows spread their wings and flew. At the same time, far away in the Blackwater Castle, Enzo's eyes flashed with thought.
"With just a few people, do you want to take over Blackwater City?"
Enzo murmured to himself, a trace of thought appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but shake his head. It seemed that he still overestimated Earl Silver Star.
The 30,000-strong army seems to be menacing, but to Enzo, even one person can destroy them all.
"Next, just wait and see what happens."
Enzo pondered for a moment and quickly made a decision. He did not intend to take action hastily against the Silver Star army, although in Enzo's eyes, the so-called army was nothing more than a group of ants.
But what he was thinking about was the rules of this world.
If Enzo makes a strong move and destroys 30,000 troops with one person, then the will of the world will definitely notice the abnormality in Enzo. At the same time, Earl Silver Star will also be shocked. The situation develops too fast, and there is nothing for Enzo.
benefit.
Therefore, Enzo planned to wait and see what happened.
He must keep a low profile, hide his power, and use as normal a method as possible to resolve this war in order to control the situation.
Two days passed quickly.
The army representing Earl Silver Star has arrived less than ten miles away from Blackwater City and has set up camp in the forest, planning to launch an attack tomorrow.
"You are really calm!"
Orton stood on a rock, looking towards the direction of Blackwater City, and sighed, "I really admire this Enzo now."
"You can still be so calm when the enemy is under attack. If this guy isn't a fool, then he is a person!"
A complex look appeared on Orton's face. The 30,000 Silver Star army had arrived outside Blackwater City in a mighty manner.
But Blackwater City is still as stable as Mount Tai.
Although the city's defense has been strengthened, it is obviously impossible to stop the Earl of Silver Star's army with this level of defense.
In Orton's opinion, just one order is enough to destroy Blackwater City.
"Let's fight quickly!"
Orton took a deep breath, raised an arm, and immediately prepared to send troops to attack, and took Blackwater City directly in one charge.
"Wait a minute, Orton."
At this time, Shirley next to her suddenly spoke, looking towards the direction of Blackwater City, frowning and saying, "Don't you think things are a little strange?"
"Oh? What's wrong?" Orton didn't know why.
"Our army has arrived at Blackwater City, but Lord Karen has no reaction at all. It is impossible that he has not received the news."
A trace of solemnity flashed in Shirley's eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "Is it possible that Blackwater City seems to be peaceful now, but in fact, a trap has been laid out, just waiting for us to launch an attack?"
After hearing Shirley's words, Orton also frowned slightly.
"Will this happen?"
A flash of thought flashed in Orton's eyes. Among the many descendants of Earl Silver Star, the powerful Orton has always been a reckless man.
However, the current situation made him feel suspicious.
The reason is very simple. Blackwater City is too peaceful here. Thirty thousand troops are pressing down on the territory, but the other party has no reaction at all. In such a situation, even the simple-minded Orton feels that something is wrong, and thoughts flicker in his mind.
"Even if the Lord of Blackwater City is stupid, he can't see clearly the current situation!"
Shirley narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "If Blackwater City doesn't have any arrangements, then when our army charges, the city will be destroyed and everyone will die."
"Do you think this Lord of Blackwater City would be so stupid?"
"Could it be that he is at his wits' end?"
Orton thought for a while and asked, "No matter how you look at it, Blackwater City cannot stop our army. Maybe Lord Karen has seen this clearly."

Hearing Orton's words, Shirley rolled her eyes.
"My dear brother, isn't this idea too simple?"
Shirley shook her head angrily and said faintly, "If I were the lord of Blackwater City, if the situation really reached the point where I was helpless, I would consider how to surrender. After all, now that we are opening the door to welcome the Silver Star army into Blackwater City, this
Lord Karen can still strive for dignity."
"But if a war really breaks out, even if he wants to surrender, he will have to pay a heavy price!"
"Therefore, I speculate that the reason why Lord Karen is so calm must be that he is confident and waiting for our attack!"
Shirley calmly analyzed the current situation.
Next to him, Orton couldn't help but nod his head. He also agreed with Shirley's idea.
The reason is very simple. The attitude of Blackwater City is so calm that it is difficult not to think that there is some conspiracy in it.
"Then...what should we do?"
Orton pondered for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Thirty thousand troops have arrived in Blackwater City. It would be unreasonable if we don't do something, right?"
"Let me go explore the road first."
Shirley's eyes flickered and she said, "Use my ability to sneak into Blackwater City first and see what kind of arrangements this Lord Karen has."
"you?"
Orton hesitated, nodded, and said, "That's okay, but you have to be careful. Although your ability is very suitable for sneaking in, don't be too careless."
"Don't worry, Brother Orton."
Shirley nodded, and her figure twisted, as if turning into a shadow, quietly approaching in the direction of Blackwater City.
This is the ability of the Dark Elementalist!
In the world of thunder, the thunder elementalists are the mainstream, but other elementalists also have their place. Although the combat effectiveness of the dark elementalists is not as good as that of the thunder elementals, their assassination and infiltration abilities are first-rate. Enzo used to do it when he was in Blackwater City.
I once encountered a dark element user.
The other party is a born killer.
However, for a wizard like Enzo, no matter how good the killer is, it means nothing. In the face of absolute strength, everything is futile.
"It's up to you, little sister!"
Looking at Shirley's disappearing figure, Orton nodded slightly. In his understanding, the Dark Elementalist had perfect infiltration capabilities.
Even with Karen's arrangements in Blackwater City, Shirley can still come and go freely.
However, Orton didn't notice.
Next to the place where the two people were talking, on a crooked tree, a crow seemed to be integrated with the night, quietly watching everything that happened.
Blackwater Castle, in a room.
"Is that it?"
Feeling that Shirley, an elementalist, was approaching Blackwater City, Enzo raised his brows and had a calm expression on his face.
I have to say that the Silver Star Army is really cautious.
The man named Orton seemed to be a reckless man, but the other woman, Shirley, still had some sense.
After sensing the calm in Blackwater City, the Silver Star army did not attack rashly.
This made Enzo feel a little disappointed, because just as the two of them thought, Blackwater City had indeed been set up by him. Underground at the city gate, Enzo had quietly buried many will-o'-the-wisps. As long as the Silver Star army approached, they would
Was hit hard.
In the thunder world, the so-called will-o'-wisps are somewhat similar to bombs.
However, the essence of this thing is something like kerosene, and the quantity is very rare. Even if there is not much in the entire Blackwater City, after being transformed by Enzo using witchcraft knowledge, it is enough to cause heavy damage to the Silver Star army.
Although Shirley and Orton had already noticed something was wrong in Blackwater City.
However, they probably never thought that Enzo would bury a large number of will-o'-the-wisps under Blackwater City. This behavior is really too crazy, because once the will-o'-the-wisps are detonated, not only the Silver Star army will be severely damaged, but Blackwater City will also be hit hard.
in this way.
At the same time, using this extreme method will completely anger Duke Silver Star.
In Orton's view, although it is already known to everyone that Earl Silver Star covets Blackwater City, Karen, as the lord of Blackwater City, may not dare to make a desperate move, because if Earl Silver Star is completely angered, wait for
His only path is death.
But what Orton didn't know was that the current lord of Blackwater City didn't take the so-called Earl of Silver Star seriously at all.
The other person is just a mortal.
If he were not afraid of arousing the rejection of the will of the world's rules, Enzo could have wiped out the so-called Earl of Silver Star on his own.
But in the current situation, Enzo cannot be too high-profile.
But the method of using will-o'-the-wisps is still within the scope of mortals. Therefore, even if these 30,000 troops are buried under the ruins of Blackwater City, Enzo will not attract the attention of the world's rules. Naturally, he will have an indifferent attitude.
"Now that you're here, don't prepare to leave."
In the room, the corners of Enzo's lips were slightly raised, and a trace of thought appeared on his face. Since that Shirley wanted to sneak into Blackwater City, then Enzo should simply let her never come back.
Anyway, if Enzo wants to conquer the thunder world, he must expand his influence in the mortal world.
It seemed that it was only a matter of time before he broke up with Earl Silver Star, and even the entire Flash Silver Kingdom, so there was no need to worry about it now.
At the same time, Shirley, who had turned into a shadow, had quietly entered Blackwater City.
Under the night, Blackwater City was silent.
The soldiers on the city wall were prepared and did not dare to relax at all. The news that Earl Silver Star had sent a large army to attack Blackwater City was no longer a secret, although these soldiers had already sworn allegiance to Lord Karen.
But when the real war comes, everyone feels very nervous.
After all, the title of Earl of Silver Star was well-known throughout the Flash Silver Kingdom, and the sense of oppression brought about by the army's pressure on the territory also made the soldiers very depressed.
No one noticed that Shirley sneaked into Blackwater City quietly.
"Is this the only quality you have?"
While sneaking into Blackwater City, Shirley was also quietly sizing up the soldiers, only to find that the soldiers in Blackwater City were very nervous and seemed to be afraid of the possible war that would follow.
And it was the reaction of the Blackwater City soldiers that made Shirley feel a little relieved.
After all, if Blackwater City is really in control of victory, the soldiers' morale should be high and they cannot be so fearful.
"I want to see what you are hiding."
Shirley's eyes flickered slightly as she quietly revealed her figure in an uninhabited alley, looking towards the direction of Blackwater Castle.
Then, she transformed into a shadow again.
As a thunder elementalist, Shirley is very confident in her abilities. Her hidden abilities are difficult for even the thunder elementalists to detect. Her experience of sneaking into hostile cities many times has also made Shirley very comfortable in using her abilities.
Not long after, Shirley entered Blackwater Castle.
The soldiers patrolling the courtyard did not notice Shirley's infiltration at all, which made Shirley even more confident in her abilities.
Soon, Shirley found the room belonging to the lord.
At this time, in the bright room, Karen, as the lord, was sitting at the desk processing documents. The candlelight on the desk was swaying slightly, and everything seemed very calm.
"Is this Karen?"
Shirley was like a shadow, hiding in the corner, staring at Karen, curiosity flashing in her eyes.
