Outside Storm City, Leigh's camp was brightly lit, facing the rows of torches on the wall.At this time the city gate opened and ten soldiers escorted Brie to the outskirts military camp.In the main account, the director of the association saw Reger with a tired face.Seeing Brie, Leigh squinted his eyes and said, "Tell me honestly, did you betray Storm City in the morning?"

Brie smiled bitterly: "In fact, it is Sir Maud that we have abandoned."

"Why do you do this?"

"Does Captain Reger know it well? You treat us adventurers like that, do you still expect us to kill you?" Brie sneered, and Xuanji shook his head: "But after all, you have seen it. The city of Sul is no longer what it used to be. Now the Alan knight in the city, I hope I will give you a message. In order to avoid more casualties, he hopes you can surrender. After surrendering, you still retain your current position. . So you see, Captain Reg, you didn’t lose anything, you just changed your loyalty object."

"Well said, isn't he afraid that if I surrender today, I will reverse tomorrow?" Reg sneered.

Brihaha laughed: "Believe it or not, the Sir Edward of Sul City, or the Knight of Allen. I have an intuition that what they want is not this city or place. You think with their ambitions, Will this city, or will you look at it?"

"According to me, you'd better not have the idea of ​​rebellion. Instead, follow them, maybe your future achievements are far higher than the present. Commander Reg, there is only one opportunity, you should consider it carefully." , They want to go outside the books.

"and many more."

"Why, Captain Reg doesn't want to keep me as a lobbyist?" Bree said half-jokingly.

Wrigg looked at him up and down, and after a while he said, "Tell Alan Knight that I can surrender, but I must ensure the safety of me and the soldier's family.

"Of course."

"Then don't give it away." With these words, Regg waved his hand tiredly as if he had grown old for an instant.

When Brie left the camp, he gave the night wind a blow, only to realize that his clothes had been wet with cold sweat behind his back.The guard stepped forward to protect him from leaving.After walking out of the camp, Brie said to the person next to him: "Are you really relieved to leave the army to him?"

The man raised his head, but it was Ellen who put his eye-catching silver hair in his helmet.He smiled and said: "If Reg surrendered, what do you think the people of Storm City would think of him. At that time, even if he didn't want to be loyal, he had to be loyal, because he had no choice. If you don't surrender to me, who will protect him and who Continue to give him the current power. And I also need someone like him to stabilize the military spirit. This is what each person needs."

Allen patted Brie on the shoulder and said: "The Rangers you provided this time are really good, Mr. Brie, there are still many opportunities for us to cooperate with the Adventurers Association in the future. I hope you can continue to recruit this kind of experience for us. Group of fighters."

Brie smiled and said authentically: "That's natural. Maybe it's in the light of Your Excellency Allen. The two old guys, Beto and I have the opportunity to exchange seats at the headquarters of the association."

Allen laughed, everything was said.

The next day, Leigh brought a small team to the city and said loudly: "Please tell Your Excellency Allen, we are willing to surrender."

This news is undoubtedly a blockbuster, and some caring people who heard the news were heartbroken.Once even Leigh surrendered, Storm City would completely fall into the opponent's hands, and there was no room for resistance.While these people scolded Reg in secret, they hurried to see Alan to show their loyalty.It saves Alan from taking them, so Alan is very busy this morning.

But finally everything settled.

Allen was also very generous, after Wrigg expressed his surrender.In the afternoon, the detained recruits were handed over to Reg.Craig really hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't understand Alan's thoughts and completely gave up his plan to go back.In this way, Storm City was completely taken by Allen.According to the rules of the game among the nobles of the empire, it is now owned by Sul City and belongs to the territory under Edward's jurisdiction, so it is short of an official document.

Of course, in the case that Storm City officials have chosen to surrender, this document will not be long before it will be formally handed over to Edward.However, what is surprising is that three days later, Sir Edward of Sul City visited Storm City and decided to give Storm City to Allen.

In the case of an entitled knight, such an approach is undoubtedly laying the foundation for Allen's promotion to the knight.No city owner would be willing to do this. The knights under the city owner often had to lay several territories for the city owner before they had the opportunity to give a relatively barren land.Coupled with some military exploits, it was possible to change to the lowest quasi-baron in the Empire.

Quasi-baron is the first title promoted by a knight, and this title cannot be hereditary.Only by making greater contributions to the empire, or occupying more territories of other knights, will they be promoted to baron.

Under such a promotion mechanism, naturally no lord would be willing to cultivate an enemy by himself.So when I heard that Edward decided to let Allen manage Storm City on his behalf, it naturally attracted a lot of discussion.Then someone began to inquire about the origins of these two men. When they learned that Edward was originally only one of Allen's subordinates, the relationship between them was naturally clear at a glance.

After figuring out how Edward became the lord of Suer City step by step, anyone with a little bit of mind can sort out a general context.There is no doubt that among these two people, the real master is actually a knight named Allen.He allowed his subordinates to marry the daughter of the former city lord of Suer, thereby pushing Edward to the position of lord of the city.

With Edward, the city lord, he has enough power to make the nameless Allen a knight.After taking down Storm City, he was given the position of escrow.Next, the knight Alan needed only one or two great accomplishments to be promoted to a baron.After the quasi-baron, whether it is to integrate Suhl City or continue to expand its influence.In the near future, it is a predictable fact that a powerful knight will rise in this border land.

After continuing to dig into the deeds of Allen and others, it was discovered that they had already set up the Lily Chamber of Commerce in Violet Harbor in advance, and even influenced the position of the slave merchant Roger.So Allen is already a potential new star who is expected to sprint towards the Viscount in people's eyes.

There has never been a Viscount in the border land.

So even Alan didn't know that people's attitudes toward him were quietly changing.Smart people will not interfere with this unchangeable situation, while stupid people leave the stage early.People who can't even see the situation clearly will naturally be eliminated by the times.

On the second night when Edward arrived in Storm City, Allen was sleeping when he heard gunshots and crying.He sat up, opened the curtains, and the direction of the barracks was bright.He frowned, and walked out.

Riding a war horse to the barracks, the camp is surrounded by soldiers.Allen got into the crowd and came to the open space of the barracks, only to see that the camp had been stained red with blood.On the other side, nearly a hundred corpses lay.There, even women and children are not immune.And Mogu's corpse was among them.

These people are all characters in the Maude family, and hundreds of people, large and small, are now being punishable.Allen sank in his heart and shouted in a low voice, "Who told me what happened?"

"I ordered it." Edward walked out of the crowd and said lightly.

"I don't remember asking you to do this kind of thing." Allen said solemnly: "Should I ask my opinion before shooting them?"

Edward smiled nonchalantly and said, "Let's discuss it in private."

In the camp office, Allen looked out the window.The soldiers are carrying the bodies one by one, and the bodies will be carried outside the city for mass cremation.Allen sighed and turned back: "Edward, why kill them without asking for my opinion?"

"Because of this, this cruel charge will only be held on my head alone." Edward said calmly: "Maud's family should not stay, even if it is a child. You should know that hatred is a seed, and sooner or later it will It takes root and sprouts. Even if it doesn't grow up, it will be used by those who are interested."

"Rather than waiting to regret it again in the future, it is better to do it cleanly now. And this order, I will give it, is more suitable than you."

"Why? Are you afraid that I don't have the consciousness to bear the charge?" Allen shook his head and said: "War is never just, and everything we do has nothing to do with justice at the beginning. Invade, colonize, and strengthen ourselves. What we did was bloody on both hands from the beginning."

"Of course I know that since you have decided to expedition to Outland, you have already planned to bear the evil. However, as a high-ranking person, you can't completely embody evil. Therefore, some darker things require someone like me to go. Go on. Allen, you and me are light and darkness. Your flame will illuminate others, and people’s eyes will not be tolerant of light. So, leave the dark part to me." Edward looked straight Allen's eyes: "I think it would be better to do this."

Allen shook his head and said, "Actually, you don't have to do this, after all, I am..."

"It's okay, Allen. In the days of displacement, I have already abandoned all light. Because only by embracing the darkness can I live and live to this day. So I am willing to do this." Edward smiled slightly: " You go back first, and I will deal with the matter here."

After leaving, Allen shook his head: "Edward, why do you want to sink yourself into the darkness?"

Of course, no one will tell him this answer.r1058
