"Sir!" Nalant came to the vestibule and went directly to the guard's barracks. At this time, the two seriously injured guards were able to walk slowly on their own and were walking around the door of the barracks!

"There is no need to be too polite. The injury is not completely healed, so there is no need to salute vigorously, otherwise the wound will burst again!"

"Yes, sir! Thank you for your life-saving grace!" The eyes of the two guards showed great gratitude.

This life for both of them can be said to be bestowed upon them by the lord. If they were injured like this in the past, they would definitely die.

I heard from other teammates that in order to save the two of them, they endured the blood of the two of them while cleaning and suturing them.

In the past, there were no nobles like my lord. Even the nobles who were kinder were just a few more pensions after their death.

"Well, there is no need to thank me. This is the treatment you deserve for fighting bravely for me!" Nalant smiled and nodded at the two of them. Judging from their appearance, they should be able to return to training in a few days.

"In addition, I have already told Quick about the rewards for your two battle merits. In addition to the merits of killing enemies, I will reward each of you with an additional three silver coins! Take good care of your injuries and return to the team as soon as possible!"

"Yes, sir!"

After seeing the two seriously injured guards, Nalant was preparing to find Sherry.

"Sir... Sir!" However, just as he reached the front of the castle, Sherry shouted and ran over from the front.

The little loli's face was full of anxiety, which was very rare.

"Sherry, what's wrong?"

"Sir, it's not good. Little Gray said that he just saw people dressed like guards breaking into Storm Territory from Blazing Forest, and they seemed to kill people in the territory!"

"What? A guard came Storm Territory and killed someone?" Nalant was shocked.

It turned out that Little Gray went to catch insects around Blazing Forest this morning as usual. Unexpectedly, he happened to see a group of people dressed as guards getting out of Blazing Forest, and then witnessed them killing three people on the roadside.

Little Gray has received instructions from Sherry that if anything unusual happens in the territory, he must report it to her.

So Little Gray talked about this matter immediately after he came back. However, Little Gray is a bird after all, so he can only describe it roughly. As for the identity of the intruders, it is impossible to find out clearly.

However, what is a bit strange is that the people these guards killed were not captured from Storm Territory, but brought by themselves.

This left Nalant a little confused, but he suddenly remembered the previous mission reward. Wasn't it a reward for the message of territory crisis?

Thinking of this, he did not dare to neglect at all.

"Vivian! Let the guards assemble!" Nalant immediately came outside the castle gate and ordered Vivian who was training the guards.

Quick took ten guards to protect the convoy and went to Tulip City yesterday, so there are only twenty guards in the castle today.

Leaving five newly recruited guards to guard the castle, Nalant led Vivian and others directly towards Blazing Forest.

On the edge of Blazing Forest, ten Dori away from Misfortune Village, on the dirt road, a team of thirteen people was walking quickly towards Misfortune Village.

There were ten people in the team who were fully armed guards. As for the other three, although they were unusually tall, they had already made no sound at this time.

However, what they were wearing turned out to be rare beast furs.

"Captain, how long do we have to go? Why don't we leave it here?" While walking, a guard asked the captain. They were also afraid of this Land of Misfortune.

"Master Quinte has given an order. The bodies of these three people must be brought to the vicinity of the village of Storm Territory. We should be able to reach them in another hour's walk! Please speed up, and we will try to leave this unfortunate place as soon as possible!"

"Okay!" The guard had no choice but to continue carrying the three corpses wearing furs.

What the group of people didn't know was that at this moment, a small swarm of bees flew above their heads. After circling in a circle, several bees quickly left.

"Sir, the bees have found those people, and they are approaching Misfortune Village!"

Sitting on the moving carriage, Sherry immediately reported the situation he just learned to Nalant.

"Going to Misfortune Village?" Nalant frowned, "Everyone, speed up!"

"Yes, sir!"

Following Nalant's instructions, the carriage carrying the guards moved forward quickly.

Half an hour later, Nalant and his party finally arrived at the dirt road at the edge of Blazing Forest.

"Sir, they are right in front and will arrive here in two minutes."

The carriage was hidden in advance and the guards hid in the trees on the roadside. Soon the bees sent by Sherry sent back the latest information.

Nalant is not prepared to hit him head-on. Since the opponent's target is obvious, it is best to wait and ambush him.

"Vivian, tell us to go down and prepare everyone for battle!"

"Yes, sir!"

Vivian received the order and immediately conveyed the order, "Archers, prepare your arrows, swordsmen, unsheath your swords!"

Clang Clang Clang!

Following the order, the guards prepared for battle.

At this time, the intruders did not know that an ambush had been prepared for them, so they continued to move forward quickly carrying the three corpses.

As time passed, Nalant and others soon saw this group of intruders.

"I'm so exhausted. Why haven't we arrived yet? This damn unlucky lord. If it weren't for the lord named Nalant, how could we have been sent to this Land of Misfortune."

"Keep your voice down. If we walk a few miles, we should be able to reach the village. Be careful of villagers on the road. Please cheer up!"

As the group of people approached, there were also whispered curses.

"Are these the guards of Quinte?" Although this group of people did not have any family markings on their bodies, Nalant knew that these standard guard outfits came from the southwest, and most likely they were Quinte's subordinates.

Especially when this group of people made it clear in their words that they were looking for trouble for themselves.

"Eh! Wait, the three people they dragged were wearing beast skins..." Suddenly, Nalant saw three strange human beings dragged by guards behind the team, "These are the barbarians on Blazing Grassland!"

The next moment, Nalant couldn't help but frown.

It would be understandable if these people came to attack Misfortune Village, but dragging three motionless barbarians to their own territory, what are they planning to do?

However, no matter what, these people came to their territory fully armed and had absolutely no plans. Once they were dealt with, everything would become clear.

Thinking of this, Nalant gave another order to Vivian!

"Vivian, take action, try to leave a few alive!"

"Yes, sir!"

Vivian Hearing this, he immediately raised his bow and set an arrow, and then loudly ordered, "Your Majesty has an order, take action!"

Whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh!

In an instant, eleven arrows shot out from both sides of the road, shooting towards the ten unsuspecting guards in the middle of the road.

"No, there's an ambush!"

Puff puff puff!

Although these ten guards discovered the situation immediately, they had no time to react when faced with hidden arrows. In an instant, most of them were hit by arrows, and three or four of them fell on the spot.

"They are hiding in the woods! Rush in, or you can't escape!" The guard captain also had experience and knew that in such a situation, he could only rush into the woods to deal with Longbowman, otherwise he would be dead on the unobstructed dirt road.

Whoosh whoosh!

However, before they could rush into the bushes, the second wave of arrow rain came again.

Puff puff puff!

Several more guards fell!

"Asshole, kill me!"

After this wave of arrows, Longbowman had no chance to fire arrows again, because two or three fish that had slipped through the net had already rushed in front of them with arrows stuck in their bodies.

However, before the three people could swing their swords, Nalant's five swordsmen, who had already sharpened their swords, swarmed up and drowned the three people.
