Chapter 133 Beamon's Fortress, Wolf's Den, Interview
"Yes. The Duke has been in the city these days and has not gone out." As the city gate captain of Wolfsburg, Feige naturally knew the whereabouts of his boss, so he answered the female werewolf's question.
, while ordering the soldiers behind him to line up and move out of the way to enter Wolf Castle.
"Well, let's go back."
As if considering that if her demon pet entered Wolf Castle in such a swagger, it would probably cause a lot of unnecessary panic or trouble, Ekaterina jumped off Cerberus' back and patted him gently.
The demon pet's shoulder blades whispered a few words into the demon pet's ear. Immediately, the hell dog let out a few dissatisfied whimpers, but under the urging of the female werewolf, it slowly shrank its huge body until
It turned into a black puppy the size of a fist, and finally jumped onto the female werewolf's shoulder, closing its eyes and curling up.
"Hey, you little naughty one." She gently scratched Cerberus's neck hair with her staff again. The female werewolf smiled and crossed the moat under the attention of Fei Gou and all the city gate soldiers.
Go up the wooden bridge and enter Wolfsburg. Behind you, Zer and the Wolf Guards followed closely.
Walking into the Wolf's Castle, you will be greeted by the familiar smell of roasted dough. Looking up, the markets on both sides of the street are full of vendors selling a variety of goods and people cooking in large iron buckets.
Naan Bazaar. Every once in a while, a large stack of hot bread bags will be taken out of the oven and thrown on the pallet. Immediately, many behemoths will come to buy some, and then
They left in a hurry, including some enthusiastic consumers who looked like military officers.
In addition to the local natives of Crulod, what is even more surprising is that many Erathian merchants with obviously human features can be found in the market. Almost all of these humans gather in the middle of the market, on the stalls.
Most of the items on sale are spices such as cinnamon, fennel, star anise and some crude ironware for agricultural use.
It has to be said that spices and ironware are very valuable production materials for the Kingdom of Beamon. Every year, in order to marinate a large number of slaughtered livestock in time before winter without letting them rot unnecessarily, Krulod
Thousands of pounds of spices need to be used, and most of them have to be imported from abroad. As for iron tools, because the northwest is a poor ore zone, the small amount of copper and iron production capacity in the kingdom has been used first.
It is used to meet the needs of the military. Over time, the folk ironware in Behemoth is in short supply. Even in some remote villages, searching all the households may not be able to find a few cast iron kitchen knives.
It was precisely because of such material pressure that the Krolod Senate finally had to agree to lift the border restrictions and allow foreign merchants to enter the market set up outside Wolfsburg to sell goods that Behemoth was in short supply. Moreover, all invited
The foreign merchants in Crowroad and even the Hurricane Wasteland will be closely protected by the kingdom's military. Of course, this kind of constant surveillance can be understood as surveillance and control. This is why
The reason why there is always a group of Behemoth warriors standing on the left and right side of human merchants.
Without stopping, Ekaterina led the team directly through the market and headed to the core of Wolfsburg - the Wolf's Lair, where Wolfgang's headquarters is located.
However, what surprised the female werewolf was that when she approached the "Gerlitz" camp, she suddenly saw a large number of big-eared barbarians and nearly ten ogres crowding in front of the tall stone steps of the headquarters. It seemed that
Waiting for something anxiously. Immediately, Yekaterina recognized that these people were thieves under the command of Savage Totem.
When they saw the female werewolf holding a golden wolf-head scepter walking towards him quickly, all the barbarians hurriedly made way for her without daring to block her. Even the rude and reckless ogres were cautious.
He stepped out of the way and kept bowing to the leader Ekaterina.
Seeing this, the female werewolf just raised the scepter in her hand expressionlessly as a greeting. Then she passed through the separated crowd with her head held high, stepped on the black marble stairs, and quickly climbed up the stairs.
Except for Zheer who continued to follow, the other ten pairs of wolf cavalry bypassed the main building and headed elsewhere in the camp.
"Miss Yekaterina, welcome back." At the top of the stone steps, a middle-aged werewolf officer who had been notified and was waiting here said to Yekaterina with a smile.
"Thank you, Uncle Ringenberg." Just smiling slightly at the middle-aged officer, the female werewolf returned to her usual indifferent expression: "What is going on outside? Why are the people of Savage Totem guarding the wolf den?"
Although Wolfsburg is Krolod's southern gate to the wasteland and the human world, it is Wolfgang's home turf. As for the base camp of Barbarian Totem and Tyran Wind, it is still further north inland. So usually
The troops of the other two giants of the wasteland were just passing by Wolf Castle or replenishing some supplies, and would not stay for a long time.
"It's Varyosha's team." As the Duke's adjutant for many years, Lingenberg almost grew up watching Ekaterina, so he was already familiar with the weird temperament of the female werewolf, so he answered immediately.
"Varyosha? What's wrong with that bastard?" the female werewolf asked casually while continuing to walk into the building.
"He was seriously injured and has just been sent back to Wolf Castle for treatment. But the injury is very serious and he seems to be in some trouble." The werewolf officer fell half a step behind and followed the female werewolf. As for Zheer, he took the initiative to fall behind a few meters away.
.
"Why, he went to attack Erathia's town like those idiots?" Upon hearing the news that the Savage Totem Commander was seriously injured, Ekaterina's steps slowed down slightly for half a beat, and then returned to normal.
"No, he went to rob a human caravan, but failed." Lingenberg smiled half-wryly and replied in a deep voice.
"Defeated by a human caravan?" The female werewolf finally showed a surprised look.
"Besides...old Shaman Geton died for his country." After hesitating again, the werewolf officer added.
"What! Old Gordon died in battle!?" Upon hearing the news, Ekaterina stopped immediately, turned to Lingenberg and shouted loudly.
"Yes." Not minding the female werewolf's tone, the werewolf officer nodded: "The specific situation is not very clear yet, and the Duke is handling it."
"Disposal? Dispose of what?" Taking a deep breath, Ekaterina tried to control her emotions and asked.
"Following the Savage Totem, the Longinus Squadron led by Miss Margaret also went after the human caravan. But as a result, the entire army was captured. Only five wolf cavalry were released by the opponent and sent back to deliver the message. Today
I just rushed back to Wolfsburg in the morning. Now, the five soldiers are being questioned by the Duke." It seemed that it was difficult to speak, so Lingenberg had to step forward and whispered in the female werewolf's ear.
"Margaret!?" Ekaterina shouted immediately.
Sensing the female werewolf's mood swings, Cerberus, who had been sleeping on her right shoulder, suddenly opened his eyes. A pair of red eyes seemed to be soaked in blood, slowly scanning the entire main building hall, and finally fell on Lin.
Genberg's body. With the three-headed hell dog's gaze firmly fixed on him, the werewolf officer actually felt as if a ball of purgatory flames filled his entire field of vision, and then poured into his mind.
The secret passage was not good. Lingenberg immediately gathered his thoughts and wanted to break free from this terrifying mental invasion, but he couldn't succeed even after trying several times.
Just when beads of sweat instantly covered the face of the werewolf officer, and even his body began to tremble uncontrollably, Lingenberg suddenly heard a cold snort from Ekaterina. Immediately.
, the mental invasion like purgatory flames quickly left the werewolf officer's mind like a hound after hearing the whistle. Lingenberg immediately stood up again, but the officer's uniform behind him was soaked with sweat.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Lingenberg." After patting her demon pet's head, the female werewolf nodded apologetically to the werewolf officer: "Since it concerns my sister, I hope to meet my father immediately."
"Yes, the Duke has already given instructions. You can go to the war room to see him as soon as you arrive." Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Lingenberg shook his head without any hindrance and strode back a meter, unwilling to go any more.
Take a look at Cerberus.
"Let's go then." Without another word, Ekaterina immediately turned around and strode towards the large war room behind the corridor on the left.
Arriving in front of the war room, the heavy hall door was closed tightly.
On both sides of the hall door, there was a tall werewolf guard holding a silver scimitar. When the female werewolf and three other people approached, the two guards just glanced at it and stopped moving. Ekaterina seemed to also
I am very familiar with this scene, and I stopped moving only three meters in front of the hall door.
"Please inform me." The female werewolf turned around and glanced at the werewolf officer and said.
"Yes." Wolfgang's war room is a key part of the Wolf Lair. If you approach without permission, you will be immediately attacked and arrested by the guards. If you encounter resistance, you will be killed without mercy. The three people present can only act as
Only Ringenberg, the Duke's adjutant, had the pass to enter and exit at any time.
"Is it Katya, come in." At this moment, a voice came clearly from the war room, and even the thick and unusually sound-insulated wooden door could not affect the magnetic sound in the slightest.
"Yes, Father." It was not surprising that her father could notice her arrival through the hall door. Yekaterina immediately stepped forward and slowly pushed open half of the door, then stepped into the war room. Lin Gen
Berg followed him in.
As for the half-orc Zer, he consciously stayed outside the hall, making eye contact with the two werewolf guards.
