Lord of Riding and Slashing

Christenburg, shack area.

In a low house, Love and his guys were gathering to discuss the information just now. Not long ago, a guy told Love that Ollie's convoy had arrived in Christenburg.

"Are you sure you've seen it clearly? Viscount Ollie has indeed returned to Christenburg?"

Said a fellow swearingly.

"Of course, Boss, Viscount Ollie makes this carriage every time he travels. When you arrange tasks for me, I have inquired clearly, so I can't make a mistake."

Love's face is very excited. They have been in the shanty town of Christenburg for several months, just waiting for this moment. Love can't wait to report the situation to Nord , but many years of experience have told Love that the more critical the time, the less likely it is to make mistakes.

"Where did you see Viscount Ollie's convoy?"

Love wanted to confirm it himself, so he fixed his eyes on the guy, wanting to confirm the accuracy of the information again.

"It's at the outermost part of the shack area. I followed your orders. I didn't dare to relax for a moment. I stayed there all the time. As soon as I saw a team of dozens of people appear, I hurried to report to you."

The guy's tone was very sure that he must have read it right. At this time, only Viscount Ollie's team would bring so many people to Christenburg.

Hearing the man's description, Love thought it was still too late, so, with two clever men, Love hurried back out.

There is still a distance from the shack area to the castle, and as the snow melts, the roads in the shack area have become muddy. Viscount Ollie is riding in a carriage, and the speed will not be too fast. If you encounter some potholes , Maybe it will delay for a while.

So now Love should still be able to catch up. As expected, on the way to the castle along the road in the shack area, it didn't take long for Love to see the traces of Viscount Ollie and his party.

Viscount Orly's team consisted of about 40 to 50 people, including a dozen or so cavalry escorting the carriage, and the rest were infantry wearing leather armor and holding spears. Judging from their appearance, they were well-trained , these people should be the armed forces accumulated by the Krissen family.

As for those mercenaries, Viscount Ollie would definitely not trust them too much, and probably stayed in Christenburg to look after the house, because Viscount Ollie must understand the character of these mercenaries, they came here for money, and they didn't even know what to do. Not to mention loyalty.

Seeing such a situation, Love could finally let go of his heart, but since he had already arrived, Love did not go back. He wanted to see Viscount Ollie enter Christenburg with his own eyes, but followed carefully. Behind Viscount Ollie and his party, and not far away.

Because Love knew that these mercenaries were blood lickers, and their senses were very keen. If they were too close, they would be easily spotted by them.

Moreover, the current shack area is also deserted. If Love followed behind blatantly, he would be spotted easily.

In fact, the reason why the shack area is deserted is also related to Nord’s transfer of part of the population. At this time of the year, the people who should die in the shack area have basically died, and the rest of the people have survived the most difficult time until now. So at this time, the civilians in Christenburg have already started their activities, and they have to think of a way for the next days.

But it’s different now. There are probably less than 3,000 people in the shanty town of Christenburg, and Nord has moved at least half of them. Although Viscount Ollie hasn’t noticed any abnormalities in the shanty town, it will definitely not be able to hide it after a long time. .

Love followed Viscount Ollie all the way to the castle. Just under the steps in front of the castle gate, Love saw a huge figure on the carriage, awkwardly trying to get out of the carriage, and greeted him from the castle. Butler, hurry up and help me.

Love's pupils contracted tightly. That's right, it was Viscount Ollie himself. Love's heart was beating. After waiting for a long time, he finally waited for today.

It wasn't until he saw Viscount Ollie himself that Love felt relieved, and after winking at the two guys around him, Love planned to go back and retreat. After all, the last task assigned by Master Nord, Love can be regarded as It's done.

If you stay in Christenburg for one more day now, you will be more dangerous. Love can still see this situation clearly, but when Love walked to the gate of the market, I don’t know when, there are more people. Two guards stood guard.

Obviously, when they came in with the convoy just now, there were no guards standing guard at the gate. In a blink of an eye, they appeared out of nowhere. They probably heard the wind and knew that Viscount Ollie had returned and wanted to show off. In the past few months when Viscount Ollie was away, Love never saw them once.

Because he had done business in the market before, Love also said that he was a little familiar with the two guards. So even though Love was about to slip away, he still walked up calmly.

"Hey, Mr. Love came so early this year. In previous years, you were the last to come. You have just passed the damn cold season, and you are about to stand guard against the cold wind."

A guard greeted Love with complaints in his tone, complaining that after Viscount Ollie came back, they would start to stand guard, as if standing guard was not their duty.

Another guard pulled the arm of the guard who was complaining to Love, implying that he had said something wrong. The soldier quickly realized and looked at Love full of embarrassment. After all, he It was Viscount Ollie who complained, and if it was heard by Viscount Ollie, their lives might be in danger.

Love smiled at the two guards, signaling them not to care, and took advantage of the opportunity to shift the topic to the business that had been stagnant for a long time.

"It's impossible not to come earlier this year. After all, this year's life is difficult. The prices of various commodities are rising, and the quantity is still very scarce. If you don't work hard, you won't even be able to fill your stomach."

The situation that Nord guessed earlier has already happened. Even the price of Christenburg in the northernmost part of the Besse Principality has begun to rise. Due to the lack of supplies, such a high price is not only unaffordable for ordinary people, but also for merchants. There are no goods, and it is said that many merchants have gone bankrupt because of this.

Even though Love is secretly completing the task assigned by Master Nord, he still has to put on a show on the surface, so Love still has some information about some caravans. Just three months ago, Love I heard that many small businessmen like him in Twin City have gone bankrupt, and many of them are still familiar to Love, and some of them are still partners of Love.

When he heard the news, Love was still a little rejoiced. If he hadn't worked for Lord Nord, he didn't know what his fate would be, and would he be the same as them, and be affected by this business that came because of the war? The storm was crushed to pieces.

This incident also made Love follow Nord more firmly. After all, this coincidence brought Love to a higher level. I am afraid that when he comes to Christenburg next time, his identity will be different. Luo After the husband greeted the two guards, he quickly returned to the house in the shack area.
