639 Confluence

The reason why Lawrence felt that he had to prepare the group of people below was also very simple, because this group of people were not like nobles like himself and Saphiel who had actually faced war, and had never even smelled the smoke of gunpowder.

Therefore, if the artillery fire on Lawrence's position is heard soon, they are likely to cause a series of chaos because they want to escape.

Especially since the terrain below is a valley, and now the group of rich and distinguished people and their bodyguards are divided into two parts by the exit of the valley.

Once the gunfire sounds, they will most likely run to their bodyguards for protection. In this way, the opponent can easily cause a stampede at the narrow exit.

More importantly, when Lawrence summoned several Fire Bee phantoms to feed the valley to investigate, he discovered that explosives had been placed on both sides of the exit.

In other words, as long as this group of rich people takes action, there is a high possibility that the group of bandits will directly detonate the explosives to seal the exit of the valley and separate the group of rich people from their bodyguards.

After completing the overall reconnaissance of the valley and surrounding conditions, Lawrence and the others met up with the large troops and began to plan their subsequent actions.

After a brief discussion, Lawrence handed over the command to Bach, who had served as a captain in the Holy Visby Empire and had many similar combat experiences, and then he took Sephiel and Priest Hannah, the goddess of wealth, with her team

After dressing up briefly, we headed towards the valley.

"Why are there people coming over there again? Who do you think they are coming this time?" A member of the thieves group staying in a forest not far from the valley said as he patted his companions.

"I don't know, because they look a little strange." Another thief also looked at the team of six people and said.

"At least compared to the group of rich people just now, this group of people looks obviously different from them. But the two people riding horses, in terms of their dress and temperament, give people the impression that you are the richest people in the valley now.

Some people should be more noble."

"Then what should we do?" The thief who first discovered Lawrence and the others seemed even more dizzy after his companion said this, so he quickly asked. "Do we need to remind the boss now that a new fat sheep has arrived, or should we remind him

Boss, has an unexpected existence entered the scope of our realm?"

"This is very simple. Just look at how the dogs raised by the fat sheep below treat them." The second thief replied to his companion.

"At least according to our observations just now, the dogs raised by the fat sheep are all guys who look down upon others. And through their attitude towards this group of people, we can figure out who this group of people are.

Already."

"I think we have entered the observation range of that group of thieves." The team discovered by the thieves group's observation post was indeed Lawrence and his group, and when the two thieves scouts were talking about Lawrence and his group, their names

The middle-aged warrior named Karen said.

"But to be honest, the holes in our current disguise are too big. I'm a little worried that it will arouse the suspicion of the ambushers."

Karen's worry was not unfounded, because when they rushed over, they considered a series of problems and did not ride horses, let alone pull up a carriage. All equipment and ammunition were transported on the backs of people.

As a result, when Lawrence and the others want to pretend to be nobles who have heard the news and enter the valley, only Lawrence and Saphiel can use magic props to summon the phantom pony to take their place, while the others can only walk.

But in this way, Lawrence and the others looked obviously different from the upper-class people in the valley. At least from various angles, they seemed a bit too shabby.

"Don't worry, Uncle Karen." Sephiel didn't think this was a big problem. "You have to know that there are differences between nobles and nobles. Some differences are even bigger than the differences between nobles and commoners.

So I think if the thieves around us are really composed of experienced guys, they won't be suspicious because of our situation."

"That's right, anyway, I have seen several rich people who are similar to a teacher or a shop assistant in terms of clothing and living habits." Hannah said.

As a priest of the goddess of wealth, she has seen a large number of upper-class people in her career, so she has a correct understanding of this type of people.

"I think if these people are really old gangsters, then they must have other ways to identify us-"

"Stop!" Just when Hannah had just finished speaking, they also turned a corner along the road. At this moment, two young men wearing black windbreakers suddenly walked out of the roadside and stretched out their hands to stop Lawrence and the others.

Judging from the cowboy hats on their heads and the gun holsters on their waists, these two young men should be the gunmen or bodyguards hired by the wealthy people.

"Why are you stopping us here?" Lawrence raised his chin slightly and looked at the two gunmen as he recalled the faces of some people he had seen in his mind.

"I remember this should be a treasure cache in the wild. It doesn't belong to anyone, so you shouldn't stop us."

"Sorry, Your Excellency." A gunman carefully looked at the temperament and dress of Lawrence and Saphire, then pulled his companions and apologized to them.

"We don't mean to offend, but this is the limit of our responsibilities. Because there are some people with the same status behind us gathering there, so for safety reasons——"

"Okay, okay, it's like this every time for this kind of event." Saphire shook his head helplessly, then turned to look at Lawrence. "Okay, dear, show them your identity certificate."

Let's take a look. I think they will let us in."

"Actually, I hope to take you on an adventure, but there are too many people here now." Lawrence said pretentiously. "If there are too many people, this is really -"

"But there might be other interesting activities. After all, as long as we are together, that's enough. Even if we can't go on adventures, it doesn't matter." After finishing speaking, Sephiel rode his horse to Lawrence's side, and then gently held his arm.

His arm kissed him on the cheek.

After spreading a handful of dog food on the scene, Lawrence took out a small thumb-sized solid gold badge from his body and handed it to a gunman, and then said.

"This is my proof of identity. If you have a noble here, show this to him. I think he should be able to confirm my identity."

After getting Lawrence's badge, one gunman still put his hand on the handle of the pistol at his waist and looked at Lawrence and them, while the other gunman directly took the exquisite gold badge Lawrence gave him to him.

He ran into the valley.

Soon, a young man wearing a brown hunting suit followed the gunman out. Then he handed the badge to Lawrence and bowed slightly.

"Welcome, I am Viscount Surrey of Britton. I am very pleased to see you, Lord Earl of Sauer, able to participate in this adventure."

"Viscount Surrey?" Lawrence was stunned for a few seconds before he realized, "I remember that your fiefdom seems to be on a large island belonging to Britton in the north of the White Eagle Federation. I heard that a huge reserve has recently been discovered there.

Large, high-quality coal fields are said to be open for only a hundred or two hundred years."

"Yes, and part of the core of the coalfield is in my territory." After hearing Lawrence's question, the British noble showed a proud expression on his face.

"So I have been busy for a whole year, and I just recently settled all the things. So I brought my wife here for vacation at this time."
