Chapter 444:  Night attack


"Chuck! Get out of me!"
An angry Sir Thomas pushed hard and knocked the bedroom door open. On the big bed in the bedroom, there are figures undulating. Chuck was lying on top of a woman. He was shocked when he saw his uncle coming. He wrapped his quilt next to him and asked in a panic, "Uncle Thomas, why are you here."
The woman on the bed shrank into the corner screaming, and the door glared at her, making a gesture. The two guards behind her dragged the woman out and closed the bedroom door.
"Why can't I come? Look at your good deeds, you actually messed up things!" Tomen roared.
&n@猪@猪@岛@小说ww.zzhdo.ombsp; Chuck pointed to his still bruised mouth and shouted: "Uncle, you can't blame me for this. Look, that hillbilly hit me!"
With a cane in his hand, Tomen swept under his feet and beat Chuck into a scream. The baron sank, and his anger rolled in his eyes: "You still quibble. Turank has already told me that if it weren't for your rudeness in the beginning, there might be room for a turning point. Damn, you know this is for us. Said it was a great opportunity? I finally got this great job from Lord Daniel, but you idiot, you wasted my efforts!"
Chuck clutched his feet and said, "Uncle, it's not just a jazz in the borderland. What's so great."
"You really..." Tomen was trembling with anger, and finally tore off the painting of the room, tearing the picture worth several hundred gold coins to pieces before saying: "What do you know, as long as he can kill the hungry wolf Truf. Don't. Saying that he is a knight in the borderlands, even if he is not a member of the empire, he is worth recruiting. If it were not for your father's sake, I would have to kill you today!"
Thumping the crumpled oil painting on Chuck’s face, he threw the door and slammed out.
For Chuck, this messy night ended in the dawn light. At eight o'clock in the morning, a mysterious guest quietly visited. Chuck took him into his study and carefully closed the doors and windows, not wanting outsiders to see the picture of him meeting with him.
The guest smiled and said, "On behalf of Lord Raffles, I would like to thank you for twelve points. Mr. Chuck, you have done a good job in this matter."
Chuck snorted, "It's not easy for me to do this. Look at my injury. And because of this, Uncle Thomas will definitely not reuse me in the future!"
"It's okay, Sir Raffles will compensate for this. Please rest assured." He put a suitcase on the table and opened it. The inside was divided into three grids. The largest grid on the left is filled with gold coins, and there are thousands of golden coins. There are two grids on the right, and the top one is piled with amber topaz. Each of these amber topaz is worth more than a thousand gold coins. Together, they are worth more than the single grid on the left. There is only one necklace below, the necklace is made of platinum, the style is elegant and gorgeous, and it is embedded with a piece of crystal-clear jade.
The guest pushed the box forward and said: "These things are all yours. In addition, Sir Raffles invites you to the Dawning Castle, where there will be a more suitable location for you."
Chuck was exuberant. Not only did he get a lot of money, but he could also be reused by Sir Raffles. Naturally, he was better than staying on the bench in Sunset City. Chuck took the suitcase as quickly as possible and nodded: "Please reply Sir Raffles, I will leave tomorrow."
"The journey to Dawn Castle is far away. Please be careful on the way, Mr. Chuck, and wish you a pleasant journey." The guest smiled.
Saying goodbye to Chuck, turning out an alley, two men followed and walked behind the guest. Without looking back, the guest said solemnly: "That idiot will leave tomorrow. Remember to be nice and don't leave any traces."
The two men nodded their heads, then broke up again, blending into the crowd on the street. The guest smiled, looked at Chuck's house, and then turned into an alley and left. How could Raffles' pay be so easy to get, and in order to prevent Daniel from knowing that they were stalking it, it caused Allen to refuse to join. So Chuck must disappear. Of course he can't do anything in the city, but if Mr. Chuck has something to happen on the way to Dawn Castle, it's not easy to say.
Chuck has been busy that day, packing up all the property he can take away secretly, preparing to leave the city secretly at night. Under the interweaving of several different moods, such as anxiety and excitement, after finally waiting until the evening, Chuck has begun to fantasize about his good life after arriving at the Castle of Dawn. At the same time, a village more than fifty kilometers away from Sunset City also ushered in an extraordinary night.
Denis Village is a village under the management of Sir Thomas. The village is not far from the Sumara River, which serves as the border of the territory. The villagers mainly rely on fishing for their livelihoods, and some of them hunt in the nearby mountains and forests. This village of less than 300 people lives an unsatisfactory life. Fortunately, Sir Thomas’ tax revenue is still within their acceptable range, so the village will not disappear.
It was getting late, and a lot of smoke rose in the village. There is a circle of wooden fences on the outskirts of the village, mainly to prevent wild animals from entering at night. There is a guard composed of hunters in the village, plus an infantry squad stationed in Sunset City to protect the villagers. This guard composed of villagers and soldiers has less than 30 people. In many cases, the night watch is done by soldiers. This is their most basic obligation.
Tonight is no exception. Just after dinner, a few soldiers who had turned to the night watch came to the outpost on the outskirts of the village. The outpost is a small wooden house, no different from those hunter huts in the forest. There is a simple fireplace and a few beds inside, and wood is stacked outside so that soldiers can use fire to keep warm late at night. It's just that it's not winter, so I don't need these things.
There are few foreign enemies in Deni Village, even though it is the territory of Count Auban across the Sumara River, but the village on the other side of the river does not pose any substantial threat to this place. The most threatening is the wild beasts wandering in the wild, and the beasts mostly appear in the middle of the night. Therefore, at this time, the soldiers are more relaxed, sitting on the wooden stakes outside the outpost and chatting to pass the time.
Suddenly a panicked hunter ran out of the forest in front, he even carried a few hares. However, due to panic, the hunter fell three times in a short distance of less than 100 meters, so that all his prey fell to the ground. A soldier recognized him and smiled and shouted, "Julian, what are you doing in such a hurry? Are you in a hurry to go home and sleep with your wife?"
Several soldiers burst into laughter.
Hunter Julian ran to the outpost, panting, pointing to the side of the Sumara River, and exclaimed, "...No, it's not good... Someone, I..."
The soldier patted his back and said, "Say something slowly, don't worry. What do you see?"
Julian suddenly raised his head and shouted with all his strength: "The army, it is the army! The army crossing the river from the earl, they are coming here!"
"what?"
When several soldiers were still shocked, there was a scream from the forest. They looked suspiciously, the moonlight was bright tonight, and the grass out of the woods was white. In this almost holy moonlight, a war horse suddenly broke out of the woods and plunged into the meadow under the moonlight. It was a knight, and then a few other riders broke out from it, and a little light appeared after these knights. Following the soldiers holding torches, they ran out of the forest, and followed the knights to form a torrent of water!
"trigger the alarm!"
"Ready to fight!"
The soldiers in Deni village screamed. At this critical moment, they still did not forget to sound the alarm, and they were well trained. However, when the first bell rang, a few fireballs suddenly shot from the enemy's side and blasted straight towards the outpost. The soldier outside the wooden house yelled and ran away. The next moment, the wooden house was blown up, and the hot air wave blew around.
The soldier who was ringing the alarm screamed and ran out from the wooden house. He had become a fireball. After only two steps, he fell to the ground without a sound.
The horse was so fast, but in a moment, it rushed to the vicinity of the post. The soldiers looked at all this desperately, their power was of little importance under the mighty force of the opponent, and even the heart of resistance could not be born. The leading knight stopped in front of the soldier, and the other knights and fighters passed him like a tide. Under the moonlight, the knight's silver hair reflected the moonlight, shining brightly.
He looked at the soldiers with bright red eyes, and said lightly: "surrender, you have no chance of winning."
A soldier yelled unwillingly and drew his sword and rushed towards the knight. The others seemed to hear a sigh from the knight~EbookFREE.me~ and then the knight moved a dark saber. So there was an orange light under the moonlight, and that light passed the soldiers. The soldier shook his whole body and stopped, then the light armor on his body cracked open, then his body tilted, his upper body slid onto the grass, his lower body was still standing on the spot.
After a while, blood was sprayed from the section of the corpse, spraying several nearby soldiers and the hunter.
At this time, the village was full of flames, and the voices of the people went up to the sky.
Allen looked at the remaining soldiers and asked, "Choose. Rebel, or surrender?"
The soldiers smiled bitterly at each other, untied their weapons, and responded with actions. Allen nodded and said, "Very well, you guys come with me."
"My lord, if we want us to participate in the slaughter of the village, then kill us!" the soldiers suddenly shouted.
Allen looked at them unexpectedly, but shook his head: "I'm not so cruel. As long as no one in the village resists, I won't talk about killing."
The soldiers were relieved now, that was their bottom line.
