Hecalom is a county attached to the Duchy of Jordan, and due to the peculiarities and greed of the Northern Duchy Federation, the territory has a very important position for the nobility here. And in the beginning, no matter how high or low the title was, the amount of territory that could be obtained was only a small piece, almost equivalent to a knight's domain in other countries - that is, the size of a few small villages.

But at this scale, unless it is directly rewarded by the Grand Duke, it means that more than 200,000 Pan-Continent gold coins will be spent.

It's still the kind that doesn't guarantee security.

In the Northern Duchy Federation, the Grand Dukes of the thirty-six principalities all have a large number of direct territories, which are their tools for collecting money. The nobles to whom the duchy belonged had only two ways to expand their territory: either to buy it from the Grand Duke, or to fight the guò war. As long as you don't invade the territories of the Grand Dukes, those Grand Dukes don't care what happens to you below, or they want to defeat both sides, and then be robbed by other thieves, robbers, and mercenaries.

In the Federation of the Northern Duchy, there are countless cases of the two lord families losing both sides due to the territorial dispute, and in the end they were robbed and destroyed by others, and then the territory was directly sold back to the Grand Duke. Sean even knew that many of them were robbers disguised by the Grand Duke's army to kill people and reclaim their territories, after all, each of these territories meant a lot of financial revenue.

The county of Hecalom is not just a name. Rather, the area of the territory of the Earl of Hekarom is indeed a real county area.

This is a true Earl of Strength.

In the Northern Duchy Federation, the significance of the Earl of Strength is stronger than that of the Ordinary Kingdom.

And his main source of income. It is relying on the demonic beast resources and various herbal medicine resources produced in the Dunma Forest, which accounts for nearly one-third of the financial revenue of the entire Hekarom Territory. That's why the town of Dunma, which is famous for the Donma Forest, has a church of the God of War Church. And there is also a white-robed priest and ten knights of the god of war.

It's not that Count Hekarom didn't have the idea of fighting these ten knights of war, but for many years, he could only make friends with the somewhat greedy white-robed priest - this was only a superficial friendship, and the price to pay for making this white-robed priest his own was far from enough. It's just that at this time, Count Hecarrom himself didn't expect that his efforts over the years had been ruined by Sean's interference, and even the ten God of War knights were bribed by Sean and followed him and Emily into the Dunma Forest, ready to find trouble with his own men.

On the edge of the Dunma Forest slightly closer to the deep belly. There is a makeshift camp.

There were no fences in the camp, not even tents, and all the mercenaries who were resting in the camp were sleeping directly in their clothes. However, as veterans who often go deep into the Dunma Forest to hunt, they naturally know very well how to survive safely in this forest, there are not many people who keep vigil in shifts, and there are many traps around, even the rest of the mercenaries are dug in advance, and then burn the remaining charcoal ash on the fire to keep warm.

The leader of this mercenary group who was supposed to lie down and rest. But after a visitor appeared, he had to get up to receive him.

This visitor is naturally one of the two deputy leaders of the Rose Mercenary Regiment, Mary.

However, it was not only Mary and the private mercenary group affiliated with Count Hekarom who participated in the talks. There was also a young man dressed elegantly and nobly.

The young man had short curly tan hair and eyes as blue as the ocean, and he was dressed very well. Even a set of hunting outfits is obviously hand-cut zuò, not only the materials are high-end. The protection is very good, and it can also reflect the man's figure very well. But in this camp. The man seemed to be out of place in his surroundings, wearing not only black leather gloves on his hands, but also holding a handkerchief to cover his nose, obviously uncomfortable with the unusual smell of the forest.

"What happened?" When the young man saw Mary's presence, he realized that something might be wrong, so he didn't ask Mary why she was here, but cut straight to the point.

Despite the young man's compulsion that was out of step with his surroundings, his direct-to-the-point control and keen attention showed that the young man was also a very experienced commander. Without a certain amount of training, it is impossible to cultivate this young man's courage and decision-making ability, even compared to Emily, he is not inferior, and it can even be said that he is more sophisticated.

"Something is wrong." Mary said in a deep voice, her face a little unsightly, "Emily is now in the Church of the God of War, under the protection of the God of War Knight. …… I've just heard from those Knights of War that Emily won't be leaving anytime soon, and that someone from the Maerth Templar is likely to be sent. ”

When he heard the Maerz Chapel, the head of the mercenary group, who was Count Hecarrom's confidant, had a look of surprise on his face: "Why would the people from the Pope's Basilica intervene?" ”

"I don't know the specifics." Mary shook her head, "Those God of War knights didn't say it, but it probably had something to do with the man next to Emily." ”

"Damn it!" The mercenary leader cursed.

If Sean was present at this time, he would be able to recognize that this mercenary leader was the same mercenary leader who ordered the pursuit of Sean today. It was precisely because he joined that battle that he finally formed the last straw that crushed the logistics force of the Rose Mercenary Regiment, ending the battle ahead of schedule and cleaning the battlefield as if it had been ransacked by bandits.

Only Mary knew that the robbers who attacked the Rose Mercenary Regiment were the hands of the Monster Hunters, a private mercenary group under the command of Count Hecarrom.

According to the original plan, they will solve the logistics of the Rose Mercenary Group in this Donma Forest, and loot all the supplies, forcing the Rose Mercenary Group to fall into the predicament of lack of supplies. After that, Mary will provide the bait. Trick the Rose Mercenary Group into dividing troops into the forest to hunt monsters in exchange for the next operation travel expenses. But in fact, the second link of this trap is to provide a chance for the Warcraft Hunter Mercenary Group to break through one by one. As long as one more group of members of the Rose Mercenary Regiment is eliminated, the Count of Hekarom will come forward. pretended to encircle and suppress the robbers, but in fact, it was a mercenary group that merged with the Monster Hunters mercenary group and directly slaughtered all the rose mercenary groups.

The plan was supposed to be implemented very successfully.

However, because of Sean's unexpected factor, the plan was changed.

Now, Emily is under the protection of the Church of the God of War, which means that their plan will not work at all.

After the leader of the Warcraft Hunter Mercenary Group learned the news that he had been run away by Sean today, he realized that the situation might be a little bad, but he didn't expect it to be so bad. At this time, he was even wondering if Sean was a God of War knight of the God of War Church, and if so, he would openly attack a God of War knight of the God of War Church. Once recognized, not to mention that Count Hekarrom can't protect him, he may be implicated because of it.

"How's the town's garrison?" The young man, who was holding a handkerchief to hide the smell, suddenly spoke.

"You want to siege the city?" The face of the leader of the Warcraft Hunter Mercenary Regiment suddenly changed, "Impossible, I can't take it." …… Not to mention the ten God of War knights in the town, there are five hundred standing guards, after all, the geographical location of this town is too important, and it is impossible for the earl not to defend it. ”

"But we're not the town's enemies." The young man whispered.

In an instant, the leader of the mercenary group realized the meaning of the young man's words.

They are the personal mercenary regiment of Count Hecarrom. They have been catching monsters in the Dunma Forest all year round, so the town's garrison actually knows them. If they wanted to enter the town, they wouldn't cause any problems at all, even if they were to get into a fight with the rest of the town directly. The town's garrison will definitely come to their aid, not arrest them.

"The only thing to worry about is two things. The first point is the Church of the God of War......" The young man saw the change in the expression of the head of the regiment next to him. I knew that he had understood what he meant, "If the God of War Church doesn't interfere in this matter." We can just find an excuse to take them all down before they can react. …… So this brings us to the second point. We must turn away from the one who has seen you. ”

"Let the God of War Church not interfere with this, I think it can still be done, but it's just ......"

"I'm responsible for all the costs of bribery."

"Good!" The head of the mercenary group nodded, "Then Mary, I'll give you a task, and you'll find a way to lure that man away." I'll give you a few people, it's enough to pester him, we'll only need ten minutes. ”

"Ten minutes?" Mary thought for a moment, then nodded, "No problem. ”

Soon, several people who entered the state immediately began to discuss the next plan of action. They are not people without knowledge and experience, and each of them obviously has quite a wealth of combat experience, so they finalized the plan in a few words, and even patched up every mistake. Not only did the whole process not waste the slightest time, but they also quickly agreed with each other.

Goo-goo-goo-

"Is it some kind of monster approaching?" The young man's brows furrowed slightly, "There has been this kind of demonic beast cry since just now. ”

Hearing the young man's words, Mary's face suddenly changed: "Not good! It is the signal of the Rose Mercenary Regiment...... Uh......"

Before Mary could finish her sentence, she felt a sudden pain in her heart.

She looked down at her heart, where a black-gloved hand was holding a letter opener knife and stabbing it into her heart. The hand was firm and strong, and it didn't seem to feel anything wrong with the move at all.

Mary looked up with some difficulty, her eyes full of doubt.

"I don't know if I've been followed, what's the use of asking you?" The young man said lightly, then let go of his hand, and without even pulling out the letter opener, he just watched Mary slowly fall to the ground.

The mercenary group who had witnessed this qiē felt a little chilly, he didn't expect that if this mild-mannered-looking young nobleman was so crisp and ruthless, he wouldn't even notice it when he made a move. He couldn't help but wonder if he could avoid this stab at him.

"It's all touched by the enemy, and your warning devices are useless...... Captain, aren't you going to give an order yet? Seeing that the mercenary leader was unresponsive, and even a little distracted, the young nobleman finally spoke again.

The mercenary leader finally came to his senses, and immediately blew a whistle.

In an instant, the entire mercenary group, which was originally resting, suddenly started to operate rapidly like a rotating gear.

However, when these people moved, Emily's side also showed no mercy, and directly a rapid and dense rain of arrows shot at this personal mercenary group of Count Hekarom from all directions. (To be continued......)
