"It's not that the unlucky guy is so powerful, it's just that he's lucky!" Seeing Dili's expression, Johnny smiled and shook his head to explain. "The unlucky lord somehow got lucky and got a Salt Mine Sprite."
"Moreover, he doesn't know whether he is crazy because of poverty or on purpose, but he actually sold the salt directly to the civilians and serfs in Tulip Territory at a low price of seven Copper Coin!"
"In addition, he also threatened to go directly to his Land of Misfortune to buy salt. Even ordinary people can buy it at a low price of five Copper Coin, and it is the kind without sand."
"There is such a thing! Five Copper Coin is sold directly to those civilians without adding sand. Doesn't he make money?"
"Yes, the Baron got very angry over this, but strangely enough, I have sent several serfs in the past few days to sneak into Storm Territory to get information, but they all ended up never to return."
"I guess the unlucky lord has taken precautions! You know, Storm Territory doesn't even have any pedestrians on the road on weekdays. He only needs to arrange two guards on the roadside, and the people you send will be discovered and arrested immediately!" Dili laughed. He knew more about the situation nearby than Johnny.
On weekdays Storm Territory you can't see any ghosts on the dirt road, and there is only one road, so it's easy to spot outsiders.
"That's true, but my lord asked me to find the location of Salt Mine Sprite so that I can destroy him. It seems I have to find a way!"
"I can help with this matter after you transport the ore back. I will send two guards to you. They are more familiar with this area!"
"Then thank you Sir Dili!"
"Haha, you're welcome. It's all for Lord Baron. Come on, let's continue drinking. Anyway, you need to go back in the middle of the night to avoid the eldest son's eyes and ears this time. Let's drink more now!"
In this way, Dili and Johnny were drinking freely in the camp, while Nalant and others continued to ambush outside the camp.
As time passed and it got darker, Nalant finally felt a little calmer.
"Brother Glory really takes care of me! Although this team of guards staying in the camp makes it more difficult for me to attack, if it succeeds, the ore will be mine!"
Although the number of people to deal with at night may increase to more than 60, Nalant is even more reluctant to part with that cart of ore. You must know that this is at least the amount of mining for more than ten days.
"Quick, Vivian, pass the order, everyone starts eating dry food as the final food supplement tonight!"
Before a big war, it is not advisable to feed the soldiers too much. Otherwise, if they are too full, the soldiers' strength will become weak.
Therefore, before dark, in order to be ready for battle, Nalant did not let the guards eat. But now that it is dark, there should be no need to worry about the other party leaving suddenly.
As the order was given, the guards immediately began to eat black bread and cooked salted fish.
Next, Nalant and his party waited until midnight. Just when he thought things would go according to his plan tonight, Sherry on the side suddenly spoke to him.
"Sir, the people in the camp are moving! They seem to be leaving!"
"Huh? Leaving this late at night?" Nalant was already taking a nap, but immediately became excited after hearing Sherry's words.
It's still early in the morning when everyone is exhausted, so why did the other party suddenly move?
"Yes, sir, they have already started to line up!" Sherry nodded affirmatively.
"There is no other way, we can only start now!" Nalant gritted his teeth.
"Sherry, you summon the bees and let them divide into two parts, followed by Vivian and Quick."
"Yes, sir!"
Upon hearing this, Sherry immediately began to issue orders to Bee Queen in the wooden box in his arms.
Buzz buzz!
Then, Bee Queen began to flap its wings hard to make a sound.
Bees have no sense of direction at night because they rely on the sun to determine direction.
However, in addition to using the sun, bees can also rely on the buzzing of their companions for guidance.
As the sound of Bee Queen's flapping wings came out, the large swarm of bees that had been resting behind began to move, following Sherry's arrangement and following around Vivian and Quick.
"Vivian!"
"Sir, I'm here!"
"After the guards on the city wall are driven down, you immediately lead the archery team to carry the ladder up. After Quick and I take action, you immediately jump in and shoot freely!"
"Yes, sir!"
Vivian responded immediately after hearing the order, and then began to convey Nalant's order in a low voice.
"Sir Dili, thank you for your hospitality today. It's almost time. Then I'm going to return to the castle!"
"Okay, Johnny, be careful on the road and express my regards to the adults when you get back!" Dili nodded.
"Okay, see you in two months!" Johnny bowed respectfully after hearing this.
"Open the gate and let the convoy out!" Dili didn't say much, and ordered the guards at the gate.
Creak, creak!
Following the order, several guards at the gate immediately began to turn the winch.
It has to be said that for the safety of this camp, Quinte has spent a lot of money. Even the gate was made by skilled craftsmen to close up and down. This kind of gate can more effectively resist enemy attacks.
The only way to open the door is to use the cooperation of several people to push the winch.
"Ah, there are bees! Damn it, why are there bees in the middle of the night!" However, just when the door was halfway opened, and Johnny and others were about to leave, suddenly several exclamations came from the wooden wall.
"Sir Dili, what is going on?" Johnny and his ten men were startled and immediately drew their swords.
"It's strange, why are the bees out at night today? Could it be that the sound of opening the door startled them?" Dili was also a little confused, but this incident had been happening for more than a week, so he didn't think much about it.
"Johnny, don't be nervous, it's just a swarm of bees nearby. They have been stinging people at the camp for many days! It's a pity that I can't find the honeycomb, otherwise I can taste honey here!"
"That's it!" Johnny saw that Dili and the other guards in the camp were calm and composed, and then he put away his sword with confidence, "Sir Dili, then I'm going to set off! The stars in the sky are blocked, and I don't know if it will rain. I don't want to get soaked in the rain."
"Okay!"
After both parties finished talking, Johnny mounted the horse that he had a rare opportunity to ride, and led the team towards the gate.
Tap! Tap!
Johnny took the lead and soon arrived at the gate of the camp.
Looking at the backs of Johnny and others, Dili ordered his subordinates around him, "Go back to guard immediately after the bees leave! Please be alert!"
With that said, Dili yawned and walked towards his house. After staying up most of the night, he was also a little sleepy!
"Demacia!"
However, just as he turned around, an inexplicable shout suddenly came from the gate of the camp.
"What the hell?"
Johnny rode his horse out of the gate. Before he could adapt to the darkness outside, a strong wind suddenly came from the left, and then he saw a dark 'strong man' rushing toward him.
The long sword covered in red Battle Qi in the hand of this strong man was particularly conspicuous. As he rushed toward him, he shouted an inexplicable word.
Poof!
The next moment, Captain Johnny hadn't figured out what 'Demacia' was. He only felt a chill on his shoulders, and then all the strength in his body seemed to be drained, and he fell down from the horse.
Demacia?
Could it be that the person who killed me is called Demacia?
I hate it so much... I haven't become a noble yet... Why did I die...
