Chapter 592 Difficult Road
Waiting for a long time is a very painful thing, especially when you think he will appear but it has not arrived for a long time. You are worried that the enemy will appear at any time and know that they should chase after him, but you didn't see a shadow until it was almost noon. You didn't understand what this situation was. But Lu Chen, who was more energy-consuming, finally couldn't stand it and stopped looking back frequently, and allowed the team to rest on the spot, replenish food, and restore some physical strength.
However, after receiving this instruction, most adults became a little uneasy, thinking that the lord wanted to let go and ignore everyone. Because they were also worried about what Lu Chen was thinking, they insisted on rushing on the road without complaining.
The people did not have a prohibition on alcohol. I don’t know who treated the wine as water, nor where it started. When Lu Chen and everyone fucked their stomachs casually, they found that the team was making a fuss, and even the soldiers who were in the middle of maintaining order were dragged in.
"What's going on?" When Lu Chen quickly arrived at the scene, he saw some soldiers fighting with more than a dozen strong men. Although there was no substantial harm, he looked really unbearable.
"Lord, these guys spread rumors that you are going to leave everyone behind." A soldier who was dissuading others next to him replied in anger.
When the lord came, the fighters consciously let go of the other party and stood in two teams. The one who caused trouble seemed to be very dissatisfied with the previous soldier's explanation. Someone immediately stood up and responded: "There is no cover here, and the vision is very wide. Stop here to rest. Are you not deliberately waiting for the enemy to catch up to get over us? Not to mention us civilians. The same is true for you soldiers, otherwise why would he transfer other people away?"
"Yes, the fleets of Mark and Catrick were established at about the same time. And if they can spend so much money at once, only Lord Lord. Now that he has sent his own people away, isn't it just like using us as bait?" Another person stood up and said more explicitly than the first one. He immediately directed everyone's eyes to Lu Chen to question. Even the soldiers who had previously defended him also showed doubt in their eyes.
I had the urge to kill these troublemakers with one sword, but it was just a little bit, because if I had a different position, I would have the same idea as them, not to mention that there were so many eyes around me, no matter good or bad people, I could not choose easily now. I sighed and Lu Chen left a sentence "Let's go, go. The rest time is only one hour", and then turned back to the end of the team.
The lord was unable to get the exact answer. Most of them seemed a little disappointed, but they did not choose to calm down. Only some young people among the troublemakers were still cursing there, and then a few single people who had no worries left angrily in their eyes when everyone no longer supported them. But no one noticed that the eyes of two of them were strange. If any of them were present, they could recognize that they were two little assistants secretly trained by the Tony General Manager who had become fragments.

"Will Lord Lord really leave everyone behind as they said to those guys?"
"How is that possible? Otherwise why would he stay for the end?"
"That's right, I don't think about the strength of my lord. If the enemy comes, I can kill all of them just by waving my hand."
"Then why didn't he justify himself? Those guys are so hateful."
"Yes, such people shouldn't be saved. Otherwise..." The speaker winked at everyone and signaled to go back and teach those who are causing trouble.
"Okay, don't make trouble for you guys... But you can calm everyone's emotions for the lord, wait for me to ask for instructions~ Madam." Clais stopped the sisters' thoughts, and suddenly thought of a chance for him to be good. After seeing everyone nodding and wanting to ask for opinions, he knew that he chose Phoebe.
As for Phoebe's answer, of course, it was yes. After watching Claisy run back to the team with some excitement, he deliberately asked Lu Chen: "Do you have no objection?"
Lu Chen actually heard all kinds of discussions behind him, but in addition to the pursuit of soldiers, there is also the matter of how to settle the 30,000 people. It needs to be considered before arriving at the next town, otherwise there will inevitably be conflicts. Therefore, he did not notice that Clais and Phoebe were slightly strange. He just said no, and continued to have a headache for the lord's responsibility.
An hour passed quickly, and Clais and others were still busy in the team, and their efforts were obvious. The team that set off again had no disharmonious voices, and even many young men and women joined them to help those around them who needed care, which made Lu Chen, who had watched the situation behind, very pleased.
Then, until the sun fell to the horizon, the enemy who still had no shadow finally relieved Lu Chen and gave instructions to rest on the spot for a night early, and asked the soldiers to form several groups to search for water and food nearby.
However, just as everyone was relaxing, a small team of more than a dozen people appeared in the south direction in the distance.
———
"It's really a breakout in the whole city. This is the scale, tsk~"
"Captain, our Lord is not really planning to help the idiot who was driven out of the city. This is too many. If they all listen to the fake Lord, then we..."
"You guy is talking nonsense. Is this what we need to worry about? You didn't let you rush forward, let alone helping the fake lord is a serious crime of treason. If you were you, would you dare to resist?"
“…”
"Okay, I've given you this opportunity to make meritorious service. Go back and report to the lord. I'll stay here to continue monitoring."
"Hehe, thank you captain. I will definitely treat you to a drink after I go back."
More than half an hour later, the incoming soldier appeared in a large army further south, reporting the reconnaissance to several people in the middle of the team wearing armor marked with noble identity.
Then, after listening to the report, one of them confirmed the conditions with the people around him, and smiled satisfactorily with the few people around him, and waved his hand to give an order to act.
———
Seeing the army behind him divided into three strata and slowly heading towards the target, the person who was repeatedly asked about the conditions was full of infinite melancholy, but the one signed his name in his hand, and the multiple treaty left him with no way out.
"Why do you think so much? It's just more than 20,000 worthless untouchables. If Vales's affairs were caught by the Kingdom, you wouldn't even have a life."
"Sister is right. My dear, we are the ones who are rebellious and undead, and they are all mobs and are not worthy of mercy. After everything is settled, we will go to the capital together and ask the Holy See for help so that we can all conceive your child smoothly."
"Yes, it's still our own business. For just 20,000 civilians, as long as you are still the city lord, you will have these populations sooner or later. It's a pity that Skip is a talent. I didn't expect that he would know that the fake lord was arranged by Vales."
Listening to his three wives, the man holding the treaty looked even worse, but his thoughts were different from before. He was no longer worried about his own losses, but Vales and his soldiers would continue to live. "If this matter can be safely spent, you two will take over Tony's affairs. I hope he can bless you two nephews in the underworld."
"Yes, thank you for the promotion of the city lord. Uncle Tony will definitely continue to serve you in the dark." The answer was the two people who took the opportunity to escape from the team at noon, and the person they were right to whom they had the treaty was Pratt who escaped from Bryon.
At the same time, twelve of the dozen people behind Prat said goodbye to him, and sneaked into the middle army that left and disappeared from his sight. (To be continued...)
