The Legend of Fatality

Chapter 623: noble

To Bain's knowledge, this group included nobles, some of his servants, armed men and mages. The nobles ride horse-drawn sleighs. The soldiers held onto the pedal tightly or sat in front to drive.

The young woman sat beside him. Her hair is sterling silver and her eyes are golden. She has a sleek predatory beauty and a natural arrogance, which is not reduced by the collar and chain that tied her to the railing behind the sled or the strange rune metal shackles that tied her hands behind her .

"Bai En." He murmured. She said nothing, but smiled coldly, and then seemed to retreat to her heart. She did not further acknowledge his existence.

"Keep quiet," said the old mage sitting opposite them. His calm, calm tone contained more threats than all the angry glares of the guards combined. Bai En believes that there is no advantage in resisting this old mage. He glanced into the forest again, hoping to see some signs of Grerogan, but the dwarf was missing. Bai En fell into a depressed silence. He didn't believe that the dwarves could catch up with them now, but he could at least keep up with the trail of the sleigh-as long as the snow did not fall too much.

Then? Bai En didn't know. He fully respected Guerrerogan's powerful ability to kill and destroy, but he doubted that even the dwarves could defeat this small army.

Occasionally, he risked a glance at the woman next to him and noticed that she was also looking anxiously into the woods. He didn't know if she wanted her friends to save her, or if she was just measuring the distance to freedom. Howling wolf came in the distance. A strange, inhuman smile distorted the woman's lips. Bai En shivered and looked away.

Bai En was almost happy because the manor house appeared faintly in the growing storm. The outline of the low and heavy hut was partially obscured by flying snow. But Bai En can see that the house is built of stone and logs, which they call a half-timbered structure.

He felt incredibly tired. Hunger, cold and long journeys in the snow made him almost exhausted. He suddenly thought that this was their destination. Here, he would be the victim of any evil plan in the mind of the old mage, but he just couldn't take the energy to care. He just wanted to find a warm place to lie down and sleep.

Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly. It seemed that he began to treat everyone as a servant of the dark forces. This journey seemed to have completely changed him, making him believe that only darkness and evil exist in this world. Then someone blew the horn, and then the door was opened. The sled and accompanying soldiers entered a yard, and the gate closed behind them.

Bai En had a chance to glance at the yard. It is surrounded by heavily guarded houses with strong walls. He revised his previous point. Rather than saying it is a hunting lodge, it is better to say that it is a fortress that can resist siege if necessary. He cursed secretly, and his chances of escape seemed slimmer than before.

Around him, the group of people climbed down from the sled. The nobles shouted for hot mulled wine. Someone ordered the driver to put the horse into the stable. There was a clutter of commands everywhere. The breath of people and animals came out of their mouths like smoke.

The guard pushed Bai En into the building. It's cold and wet inside. It smells of earth, pine trees and old wood. A huge stone fireplace occupies the center of the hall. The soldiers and nobles stomped their feet inside, waved their arms, hugged themselves, and resisted the severe cold. The servants rushed up in a goblet filled with hot wine. Its smell makes Baien drool.

A soldier hurriedly threw the fire in the fireplace, and then flinted the sparks with flint. But the damp wood couldn't stick to the spark.

The old mage looked more and more impatiently, then shrugged, made a gesture, and said a word in ancient language. A small flame jumped from the tip of his index finger to the wood in the fireplace. Firewood hissed, and then howling. The smell of ozone permeates the air. The blue flame flickered around the wood, and then the wood caught fire all at once. The shadow jumped away from the fireplace.

The nobility and the old mage passed through one of the doors and entered another room, leaving only soldiers and prisoners. After a tense silence, then everyone started talking. The soldiers spit out what they had been suffocating when they traveled long distances here.

"Marnus' spear! What a fierce battle it was. I thought those wolves would definitely eat our eggs!"

"When I saw those hairy beasts rushing out of the woods, I had never been so scared. Those teeth looked sharp."

"Yeah, but they die fast enough, as long as you shoot through their eyes with a crossbow, or through their dirty hides with twenty-inch-long fine Imperial steel!"

"But this is not normal. I have never heard of a wolf attacking such a large team! I have never seen a wolf attack so fiercely, for so long."

"I think we can blame this witch!"

The girl looked back indifferently until no one could meet her gaze. Bai En noticed that her eyes were strange. In the darker and darker, they reflected the fire, just like the hound's eyes.

"Yeah, fortunately that mage was with us. Old Warman showed them what real magic is, that's right!"

"I don't know why the count wanted her?"

Hearing this, a sneer passed across the girl's face. Her teeth are small and white, very, very sharp. When she spoke, her voice was deep, exciting, and had a strange sense of rhythm.

"If your Earl of Hosgar thinks he can keep me here, or kill me and expect no one to avenge me, then he is a fool. If you think you will leave this place alive, then you are a fool."

The sergeant retracted his hand and hit her with his armored glove. The outline of his palm appeared particularly bright and pink on the spot where she shot down on her cheek. The girl's eyes burned with anger, and the fierce, as fierce gaze as hell, so that the sergeant stepped back, as if he were the one being attacked. The girl said it again, her words were cold, and she considered them carefully.

"Listen to me! I have the talent to foresee. The veil of the future has not blinded me. Every one of you, every poor worm under Earl Hosga, will die. You cannot leave this place alive!"

Her voice was full of convincing confidence, and every man present was shocked. His face was so scared. The men looked at each other in horror. Bai En did not doubt her words. The burly sergeant reacted first. He drew his dagger from the scabbard and walked towards the girl. He raised the dagger before her eyes.

"Then you will be the first dead, witch," he said. The girl looked at him, not afraid at all. He retracted his dagger to attack. Bai En made a decision in an instant, maybe he could take the opportunity to harvest an ally, so he pretended to be full of anger and threw forward. He hit the man straight with an iron chain and knocked him to the ground ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ He heard a low gurgle from the man he beat, and he felt a violent ecstasy because He retaliated a little against this man.

However, Bai En was determined not to continue his attack. He was worried that the soldier in front of him would forget the mage had spoken because of impulse, so he still restrained himself, and also expected the other side to maintain sufficient reason.

The other soldiers dragged him back. Then hit him with a punch. The stars danced before his eyes. He fell to the ground, curled up in a ball, and a pair of heavy boots crumpled and stepped on him. He leaned his head against his chest and placed his knees against his stomach to protect his key parts. As he tried to observe the soldiers' next move, he kicked one foot under his chin and shook his head back. The darkness temporarily engulfed him.

Now he is really worried. The angry soldier is likely to continue this punishment until he dies, and he can do nothing about it.

"Stop it!" Shouted a voice, and he recognized it as the old mage's voice. "Those two are my property. Don't hurt any of them!"

The kicking stopped. Very good, Bai En thought. Then he was pushed up by his hand. He looked around frantically, and then he noticed the red liquid spreading on the floor, which surrounded the lying sergeant.

One of the soldiers turned the man over, and Bai En noticed the dagger sticking out of the sergeant's chest. The sergeant's eyes widened. His face was pale. His chest did not undulate. He must have fallen on the blade when Bai En knocked him down. "Take them to the cellar," the wizard said. "" I have something to say to both of them. "

"Death has begun!" The girl said with a victorious tone. She looked at the spreading pool of blood and licked her lips.
