"Vera, you're looking for me?"

When she pushed the door open, Jora saw the girl and the priest discussing something. She said apologetically, "Maybe I'll come back later." ”

"It's okay, Miss Jora, our discussion is over." Father Miro straightened up, his hands staggered in front of him. On the black priest's robe, the silver-white cross reflects the colorful light in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Vera also stood up, and when she walked around in a black dress and black dress, it was like a surging black cloud.

"Miss Jora, it looks like you look good." Vera chuckled.

Jora is indeed in good spirits, since the night of the Holy Rites. Determined to regain her strength, she began to visit the barracks every day, first, to re-manage the Deep Sea Scales, and secondly, to retrain her swordsmanship and physical fitness. Over the years, her skin was darker than before, but not as morbidly pale as it had been. Her skin had also regained its luster, and even though it was winter, she was still wearing a set of sky-blue armor, and the two long legs that extended from under the skirt armor exposed the skin of her thighs as smooth as satin to the air.

"I'm almost recovered, and now even if I lead the troops to fight, there will be no problem." Returning to her previous bold appearance, Jora is amazingly attractive at the moment.

The priest and Vera looked at each other and smiled, and Miró stepped forward and said, "That's wonderful. ”

Jora looked at the two of them in bewilderment.

Vera explained: "Just now, I received news from Sir Edward. He has retreated for us from Earl Gilles, and a force sent by Earl Rykerd has been broken at the Unicorn Frontier. Now that the Earl of Gilles was isolated, Sir Edward decided it was time to put an end to it. The people of Ark Harbor need a benevolent new lord, not the current Earl of Gilles. ”

"Miss Jora, people need you," the priest emphasized. ”

Ruola's chest rose and fell, she was ready to cut off relations with Gilles, but when it really came to this time, she was a little hesitant. She forced a smile and said, "Can't we negotiate with him?" If he could voluntarily relinquish the title of count......"

"Miss Jora." Father Miró said solemnly, "You ask yourself, will the Earl of Gilles do this?" Dominated by all kinds of desires, his mind has been completely tainted by darkness. Look at what he has done, from the day of the Holy Shrine until yesterday, our Lord Count has killed nearly twenty civilians with the utmost brutality. At least seventy percent of them are women, and the families of these innocent people have suffered great grief, and they are waiting for you to administer justice. ”

"But he is my brother's ...... after all"

"Miss Jora, he's not the Gilles you know anymore." Vera reminded, "Think about what he did to you, do you think he would have done it if he had been Gilles?" ”

"But after all, I have a marriage contract with Huo Yi's son, and it is impossible for me to stay in Ark Harbor, let alone take care of this territory." Ruo Ra simply threw out all his concerns.

"Miss don't have to worry about that." Father Miró smiled, "Count Orban is not the only son of Gilles, Miss Jora can choose a more suitable candidate among them, and assist him until he reaches adulthood, and then he will officially inherit the title of earl." During this time, our church is willing to help in every way and make sure that the new earl does not go astray. ”

"In that case...... Jora bit her lip, "Well, when to act." ”

"Tonight." Father Miró smiled, "Count Gilles has guarded the White Castle layer by layer, and we need to break his shell. ”

"How many people do you need me to transfer out of the Deep Sea Scales?"

"No, miss." Vera shook her head and said, "We, the Crusaders, are responsible for attacking the White Keep, but the people of the Deep Sea Scales are still responsible for maintaining order in the city. It is necessary to guard the gates of the city, so that some people do not take advantage of the chaos to escape. ”

Jora knew that they had arranged it this way to avoid fighting with Gilles as much as possible. She nodded: "Just do it, I'll go back to the barracks first." ”

"I'll send you out." Miro Road.

Today's White Fort is like an isolated island. Gilles armed it with steel and blades, cold and cruel to deny the outside world's gaze. It's located in the Ark Harbor, but it's no longer in people's hearts. After the death of the brave, wise, and industrious Earl of Obana, there was no more Earl in the Ark Harbor. Gilles's intensified efforts after the date of the canon had made people reluctant to acknowledge the lord.

If it weren't for Jora standing up, people might have petitioned the Empire, and even rioted. Disorderly.

And now, at least the order of Ark Harbor is still maintained. It's just that there are obviously a lot more soldiers on the street, and the gate of the White Fort has been open for a long time, and the people in the fort enter and exit through the side gate or the back door. The atmosphere in the castle with its locked gates was oppressive, and the Blood Wolf Knights who were in charge of protecting the castle were listless, and they began to doubt their need to protect the castle.

It's just that they swore allegiance to Rykerd instead of Giles, so when Lanza commanded, they had to stay at their posts no matter how reluctant they were.

Lanza was looking anxious in his room, and he had already sent several confidential letters to Lance. And whether it is sent or used to communicate through flying birds, in the end, this information is like mud into the sea. The people who sent out were nowhere to be found, and even the birds that delivered the letter never flew back. It was as if beyond the White Castle was a fog, and beneath the fog was a bottomless abyss. This situation is extremely abnormal, and the only explanation is that the adversary has acted and cut off all information exchange between them.

But Lanza knew that Count Rykerd had sent an army to support them, and that it was time for the army to reach the Unicorn Territory. Not long ago, Lance also sent him a message claiming that Viscount Onte had returned to the Count's command. In this way, the situation on their side should be very good, why can't they even send information at such a moment?

At this time, Gilles's irascible voice rang out: "Lanza, Lanza, where are you?" Get out of here! ”

Lanza sighed, just yesterday, the old butler Mace had left the castle on the pretext of shopping, and had not returned. Now that the affairs of the castle fall on Lanza's head, Gilles's temperament has changed drastically, and he is angry and kills people at every turn. Although Lanza originally wanted Gilles to become such a waste, when he really let himself serve such a master, Lanza almost wanted to stab Gilles to death more than outsiders.

Of course, this can only be imagined. He shook his head and left the room.

In Giles's bedroom, a woman is tied up with flowers. The Count fastened her hands and feet to the four corners of the large bed with a belt, allowing the woman to spread out in large shapes. Because she has no clothes on, all her privacy is exposed. The woman on the bed was glazed-eyed, her still handsome face was covered with tears, and there were all kinds of wounds on her body. These wounds are not fatal, but they are enough to torture.

When she saw the woman, she almost thought she had gone to the wrong room and was going headlong into the interrogation of some cell.

Gilles's psyche has twisted like a devil, and he is venting his resentment against Jora's desires on every woman who can get his hands on it. If not long ago, Lanza could have found him two prostitutes. Now, if he wants to get a woman for the Earl, he can only rob it like a robber.

The woman on the bed was snatched by the Blood Wolf Knight from a small village more than ten miles away last night. Although the knights had to carry out Lanza's orders, this banditry was clearly contrary to the principles of the knights, which made the knights already quite unhappy. Now, this doll that was snatched at the expense of the knight's dignity seems to be about to be broken for Gilles.

Gilles threw the dagger in his hand in front of Lanza's feet: "This thing is blunt, go get me some sharper." I just thought of another game, oh, preferably with serrations, that would make the game more interesting. ”

He said it all with a smile.

Lanza shuddered from the bottom of his heart, is this demon-like man in front of him really the ambitious Gilles who was still restrained everywhere? He lowered his head, and said to himself that this was not what Earl Rycset wanted. A demonic lord, then the count will carry out justice later, and people will not object.

He picked up the dagger and was about to retreat.

"Wait." Gilles frowned and said, "When will Rykde's army arrive, I'm tired of playing in the White Castle." And those untouchables have not been sanctioned until now, and if I don't do something about it, they will think I'm a cowardly lord. ”

The Count glanced at the woman on the bed: "Seeing that, I will lock up all those untouchables, and cut every guy who dares to question me with a thousand cuts." Well, slaughtering one a day should be enough for me to play for a long time. ”

He laughed wildly.

Lanza sighed, "Actually, I was just about to tell my adults about it. ”

"What's the matter? I'm busy. Gilles walked over to the bed, lifted the woman's waist, and thrust forward, the woman, completely ignoring Lanza's gaze.

"I'm afraid something has changed about the Earl's army."

Giles froze, then turned around and roared, "What do you mean that there has been a change?" Lanza, didn't you tell me everything was going well? I heard you say that yesterday, do you even want to tease me! ”

"Don't dare. But today, I found out that someone had cut us off, so I speculated that something had happened to the Earl's army. Lanza gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, I suggest leaving the White Fort immediately. At the end of the day, let's leave the city as soon as possible, or else we may change. ”

"Fart!" Gilles left the woman's body, jumped out of bed and shouted, "This is my city." This is my territory. You told me to leave? Lanza, is your head broken? I don't care, call the army for me right away, I want to see who dares to mess around! ”

Lanza looked at him with a pitiful look and nodded away. After walking out of the door, he said, "My dear earl, there are only ten knights and twenty soldiers left in your army." ”
