Chapter 156: Close the door and beat the dog
The bad news did not affect Li Qi's appetite. I don't know if it was because of the extraordinary strength of flesh and blood, but he ate a 5-pound roast chicken, a fish, two large fried pork chops and three glasses of beer alone.
The other people looked dumbfounded.
Quick Blade even murmured to himself: "Humanoid... giant dragon."
Sure enough, the lord is a humanoid dragon!
Finish off with a dessert of ice cream.
Li Qi intended to improve the work efficiency of the city hall, but in fact he was just trying to be lazy. He asked Gulen to report every seven or eight days in the future. Of course, major and bad events need to be reported urgently.
Li Qi was very concerned about the two gray hairs.
Birds flew out of the castle one after another, hovering over and around the Porcupine Territory, searching for uninvited strangers.
Outside Maitian Village.
After education and criticism, the drunkard who hit the person has sobered up.
"Yes, yes, yes! We will never dare again!"
After repeated assurances, the security team allowed them to leave.
As soon as they turned their heads, the farmers' expressions changed, from smiles to anger: "Huh, he was obviously the one who made the rude remarks to the lord first, and yet he punished us. These losers of the security team who only know rules and regulations!"
The craftsman next to him reached out and covered his mouth. He looked back worriedly to make sure the security team didn't hear him, and then whispered: "Keep your voice down. Do you want to stay too? My lord said before, no matter what. For any reason, the person who strikes first must be punished, and any problems can be handed over to the security team."
"But that damn bastard actually slandered our lord. We are doing it for our own lord, just like a knight." The drunkenness was probably not gone yet, and he even compared himself to a knight.
Fortunately, no one was passing by on this road, only the moonlight quietly listened to their drunken madness.
On the roadside, two white-haired men wrapped in black robes were like air. When the swaying farmer passed by, he almost knocked them down, but the white-haired men took the initiative to avoid them.
"What's going on?" A farmer turned his head and looked behind him in confusion.
Empty.
Another said: "Come on, bug, go back and rest quickly, we have to work tomorrow."
"Isn't he a bricklayer? Let's give him some good looks tomorrow!"
"makes sense."
After a few people left, two men in black robes and white hair continued to act.
"Gah~"
A bird flew over the head. The sturdy white-haired man Erro raised his head, his eyes were like lightning. The bird that flew by suddenly flapped its wings in panic, shook off a piece of feathers, and flew away into the distance.
"We've been discovered," said the thin, white-haired man.
"There is no way to hide the investigation, just go to the castle."
"I have been planning to go to the castle for a long time." The strong Erro grinned, showing his big white teeth: "Just ask the local lord! Nobles, it's not like they haven't been killed before."
"This nobleman is different," the thin man said, "Ero, restrain yourself."
Arrow shrugged and replied perfunctorily, "Got it."
A gust of wind blew by, and something seemed to be missing from the two of them. The dogs along the way seemed to have discovered them and started barking.
Woof woof woof, the night has become a little noisy.
Porcupine Castle at the same time.
Li Qi sat upright.
Just like when he first tried to use Hawkeye magic to track the raven to Greenwood Castle, the magic disconnected.
The difference is that at that time he was passively disconnecting, but now he is actively disconnecting. His mental strength is many times stronger than before, and he will not be defeated just by a look.
"Both of them should be extraordinary people."
Li Qi picked up the bell on the table and shook it.
Because he would stay up in the study for a while every night, and his rest time was irregular, so Li Qi very considerately asked the valet to go back and rest first, and then come back when he heard the ringing of the bell.
After a burst of rapid footsteps, the sound of Pitchfork came from outside the door: "Sir, I am Pitchfork."
"Ask Carrot to greet the two white-haired guests outside the castle..."
Carrot is smarter and knows how to adapt to changes. If it were Little Joel, he might get into a fight.
Li Qi paused and said, "Let Sir Quickblade prepare and bring the soldiers."
"Yes!"
It is not clear whether the visitor is an enemy or a friend, but the visitor is an extraordinary person, and as a lord, he should also show sufficient etiquette.
When the two white-haired men walked to the castle, they saw the knights guarding the castle gate.
He was wearing a small leather armor and a pretty good long sword at his waist. He was similar to the nobles they saw around many small lords. He was probably the son of a certain small noble.
"Two guests," said Carrot, "please follow me. Your Excellency is waiting for you."
The two nodded slightly, their expressions a little solemn.
Sure enough the bird came from the castle.
There is a spellcaster in the castle who is proficient in magic.
Following the retinue through the forecourt of the castle and entering the interior, soldiers could be seen everywhere in the castle, quietly guarding everywhere.
The castle's defenses were tight and airtight.
Not long after walking in the rough-style castle with little decoration, the guard leading the way stopped. He opened the door and turned to the two of them and said, "My lord, wait for you two inside."
The two of them walked in.
Then a meal.
The flickering light of the beeswax fire.
Dozens of elite soldiers wearing heavy armor lined up in two rows, standing on both sides of the door. After the two people came in, they still stood like sculptures, not squinting.
But it brings a great sense of oppression.
The body is wrapped in full armor, and the metal reflects dazzling light.
Are these soldiers from the same team as the ones we met in the tavern before?
What a difference.
In the East Gorge, they had also heard of the reputation of "porcupine soldiers", but the number of porcupine soldiers should not be so large.
After opening the door, he looked directly at the handsome black-haired young nobleman sitting in the high chair of the only lord.
The thin white-haired man took his companion a few steps inside.
There was a slamming of a door closing behind me.
Before the conversation even started, the lord acted like he was beating a dog behind closed doors.
Erro's breathing became heavy. The thin, white-haired man glanced at his companion and knew that his old friend was in a state of restlessness. Erro always liked to draw his sword whenever something went wrong. This was related to his early experiences.
A rough estimate was that there were fifty or sixty heavily armed elites.
In such a narrow space, the two of them could fight their way out, but they would definitely be injured.
There are still soldiers outside, and the spellcaster hiding in the darkness has not yet appeared.
He nudged his old friend Eero gently with his elbow to remind him not to overreact.
Although they came to the castle with a somewhat scornful heart at first, they didn't even plan to go through the castle gate. They wanted to lurk directly into the baron's room, skip most of the boring red tape, and directly ask what they cared about.
After being watched by the spellcaster in the dark and seeing this kind of battle again, the two of them are very sure that they only have good intentions left now.
Really!
"Good night, my lord"
The thin, white-haired man bent down with an elegant posture, and the strong man beside him also bent down, his movements seemed very stiff.
"Sorry for disturbing your night's rest."
Li Qi was quite satisfied with their gestures. The hat he had prepared to take off before was no longer needed now.
He nodded without leaving his chair: "Good night."
"What do you call them two?"
"I am Mavi the Wind Falcon," the thin, white-haired man introduced himself, "He is Aero the Viper."
After introducing himself, he looked at Li Qi quietly.
I haven't heard of it, but looking at the expressions of the two people, they are very famous?
Ma Wei was also confused. He thought to himself: "The spell caster doesn't know us? That shouldn't be the case."
What worries him the most is that the caster has been hiding in the dark.
No one knows what abilities each spell caster has, but the spell casters hiding in the dark must be the most difficult to deal with. Fortunately, he only has good intentions!
