MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 9 Blood Lion
The time went back a bit, a day after the cheese caught Gloria.
Zhuoliu Town
"Sir, the south border has been sealed off. So far, there are 129 people including the original Earl led refugees arrested and accepted. The second to seventh teams are also patrolling the border, and the surrounding towns and fortresses have also posted notices. "
The original town hall is now taken over by the Knights who came two days ago. The original office staff in the town changed the office location accordingly. These knights are well-trained and courteous, which makes the people in the town very at ease, just curious about what they are here for.
"How about refugees?"
"Vomitting, fever, black spots on his body. Yesterday, more than a dozen people couldn't do it. Your Excellency."
"......... the way to Earl's Collar?" Asked the first knight in the city hall after listening to the report from his subordinates.
"All roads are guarded by the first team, and no one is allowed to enter the count."
"Okay, let's do this first, order the teams to strengthen the search, never let any refugees out of the Earl's collar." The knight said with a frown.
"Your will, lord."
After the subordinate soldiers left, the knight sitting on the first place looked at the sand table model in front of the earl and pondered. His gaze swept back and forth across the southern border of the earl's collar, as if to confirm that there would be an omission at that location. For a long time, he said.
"How is the situation in the West?"
"Duke Hammer has deployed ten teams of knights on the western border, and follow-up troops are still being mobilized from all over the duke." The adjutant beside the knight answered immediately.
"Who is the commander of that unit?" The knight asked.
"It's Captain Heather, Your Excellency." The adjutant replied.
Heather, the knight knows this name. She is one of the few female knights in the whole kingdom. With the special status of Grand Duke Hammer, Heather, who is his chief knight, is known in the kingdom. Although there are many rumors about Heather Knight Chief and Duke Hammer, the Knight knows that these are all groundless. As for how he knew it, it was very simple, because he had had a short cooperation with Heather before, and in that cooperation Heather left an impression on the knight to let him understand that the female knight had the achievements of today, completely It is by their own efforts.
Therefore, when he heard that the person who blocked the Western Frontier was her, the Knight knew that the possibility of an accident in the Western Frontier was unlikely. Temporarily relieved, the knight's tight nerve finally relaxed a little. Thinking of his vacation due to this urgent mission was cancelled, a wry smile unconsciously appeared on his face. Although you are the second head of the Kingdom Knights, in the final analysis, it is not as comfortable as Heather to work for the nobles.
"At least she doesn't need to fill the kingdom like this to fight the fire." He whispered to himself.
"Adult, regarding the arrangement of refugees, I hope you can issue an accurate order. Although they have been isolated from ordinary townspeople, but ..." An adjutant said nearby. Although he didn't make it clear, there was a trace of fierceness on his face.
"I remember, you called Ben, right?" The knight looked up at the adjutant.
"Yes, sir, I am from the Andrew family, full name is ..."
"Okay, I know who you are. Ben Andrew, the star of hope for the Andrew family, joined the Kingdom Knights at the age of 15 and served as my adjutant at the age of 18. However, what I want to say is that you are only mine now Lieutenant, you do n’t need to advise me before I issue the order. After I issue the order, you only need to use all your talents to execute my order. ”Knight said sharply.
"Yes, Your Excellency." The young adjutant responded in a low voice.
However, the knight did not intend to stop, but stood up and continued to tell everyone in the hall
"I know what you are thinking. I also understand your fears, but I want to tell you that we are the king's knights. Even if the refugees contract the plague, they will still be the king's son before the king orders us to kill them. The people of the Association of Pharmacists will arrive here soon, and they will do everything they can to suppress this plague. In the history of the Kingdom, it was not that there was no plague, nor that it was worse than this time, nor did it happen. But our Kingdom Knights have never been, and there will be no act of wielding a butcher's knife on innocent people in the future. "The Knight said aloud, and it can be seen that his emotions were very excited.
"I understand what you are afraid of. The entire Earl of Saron is almost completely destroyed. There is no one who can escape. And there are few who are not infected. This is scary. I know. But look at your chest Badges, our vows, our rules, our glory do n’t allow us to do this. Do n’t let me hear such a voice anymore. Let ’s go out when we ’re done. ”The knight finished, waving his hand, the rest of them were silent Leaving the hall, only the knight and his most trusted staff were left.
"It's only two days. The kingdom's elite knight can't help but kill innocent sick people. Hey ..." The knight sighed.
"In fact, this can't blame them. These guys are all qualified warriors, even if they face the enemy forces ten times their size, they won't be afraid. It's just ..." the staff said.
"But this plague is too terrible." The knight continued.
"And it broke out too quickly. If it is not His Majesty who received the notice in time, I am afraid the loss will be much greater than that of an Earl's collar."
"Yeah, it's hard to imagine that such a terrible disaster happened naturally." The staff also said.
"You mean, this is a plague that someone spreads intentionally?"
"It's just my guess, UU reading www.uukanshu.com. But I heard that there are some freaked-out wizards or cultists who will use this method to verify their experimental results or sacrifice to evil gods. "The staff continued."
"It's too early to make a final conclusion. Wait for the pharmacists' association to arrive, and see if they can do it. But if someone really spreads the plague secretly, he will regret it." Knight said.
"I am afraid that after the pharmacists association comes, your majesty will make an instruction to explore the Earl's domain. Adults, you better decide the person to lead the team early."
After the border epidemic has stabilized, it is almost certain to find the cause of the plague. This is a high-risk task and can also be given a very high honor. The factions in the Knights of the Kingdom are complex, and the selection of personnel has to be considered in many ways. Sometimes, even if there is a suitable candidate, it is necessary to retreat. The knight is upright and hardly thinks about these things. He is able to achieve this position on the one hand because of his own heroic merits and on the other hand because of the optimism of the king. But even so, offending those big nobles will not have any good results, so the staff wants to make the knights plan early.
"What's a good decision, if your majesty needs someone to go deep into the epidemic area, I will bear the brunt, and I will bear the responsibility." The knight smiled and shook his head.
Raising his hand to interrupt the staff's next words, the knight stood up and walked out of the door. He took his cloak off the shelf beside the door and put it on. On the black cloak, a headed white lion was following Dancing in the cloak.
The staff looked at the person's back, and suddenly felt that the plague did not seem so terrible. This may be the reason why he is worth following. This is the most outstanding knight in the kingdom, the head of the second knight of the kingdom of Cangshi Kingdom, the blood lion Lyon
