Chapter 193
"And those barbaric Kuyers!!! Knight Hod, if you don't give me a satisfactory explanation for today's incident, I will report to the Marquis that you colluded with the Kuyers and attacked us! By then, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape!!!" The envoy became more and more excited.
However, just as he finished speaking, the impatient Hod quickly stepped forward, raised his palm, and slapped the envoy's face hard.
The slap was so powerful that the envoy staggered and his head buzzed.
Before he could recover from the sudden slap, Hod raised his foot again and kicked the opponent's abdomen. This kick was fast and fierce. With a muffled sound, the envoy was kicked to the ground and was in a mess.
Then, Hod did not pause at all. He stepped forward and raised his foot to step hard on the envoy's face.
He bent down slightly, lowered his voice, and asked in a cold tone: "Who do you want to tell?"
This series of actions happened so quickly and suddenly that the people around him had no time to react.
Until this moment, the four guards responsible for protecting the messenger woke up from their dreams and realized that the situation was not good. They hurriedly wanted to help.
However, before they could move, Nott and other robber leaders had already appeared behind them.
They raised their sabers and axes to the necks of the four guards and sneered at them.
Feeling the coldness coming from their necks, the four guards swallowed subconsciously and their bodies stiffened.
At this moment, they no longer had the arrogant look before, and could only stand there obediently.
The whole scene fell into a dead silence, with only Hood's low questioning voice echoing in the air.
"Speak? Who do you want to tell?" Hood's eyes were fixed on the messenger on the ground, and his toes began to turn slightly, and gradually increased the strength.
"...Ah...It hurts!"
The messenger groaned in pain, beads of sweat dripped down his forehead, his face turned pale, and his eyes showed fear.
"Why did you suddenly become mute? Didn't you just ask for an explanation?"
Hod still kept his head down, but with a seemingly kind but actually creepy smile on his face, he asked softly.
Hearing this, the messenger felt as if he was enveloped by a chill.
In an instant, the messenger's psychology collapsed instantly. He desperately slapped the ground with both hands, and kept shouting: "Please let me go! Lord Hod! I know I was wrong..."
Looking at the messenger begging for mercy, Hod snorted coldly, then loosened his foot on the messenger's face, turned around and walked slowly back to the wooden stool, and sat on it.
At this time, the poor messenger finally stood up by rolling and crawling.
But because of the great shock and torture he had just suffered, his body was still shaking uncontrollably, and his expression was also panic-stricken.
"Tell me, what did that old man Anjana send you to find me for?"
Hode sat on the stool, questioning the frightened messenger in front of him expressionlessly.
The messenger raised his head tremblingly, secretly glanced at Hode, and found that Hode was looking at him seriously, so he quickly lowered his head again and whispered: "The Marquis ordered you to leave for Milda Castle immediately to assist the garrison there to resist the attack of the Kuyel people."
"That's all?" Hode frowned tightly, with doubts and confusion flashing in his eyes.
The messenger nodded tremblingly, not even daring to breathe, for fear of angering the hot-tempered knight in front of him again.
"Boss." At this moment, the burly Monkron walked quickly to Hod's side and said in a low voice: "Boss, Batu has reported that the battle in Milda Castle is already fierce. If we go there at this critical moment, we are likely to run into the encirclement of the Kuyel people."
Monkron's words instantly reminded Hod that it was true. A month had passed, and Milda Castle must have been surrounded by the Kuyel people at this moment.
But Angana chose to order him to go to reinforce at this time. Isn't this clearly sending him into the tiger's mouth?
However, if he disobeyed the order and didn't go, then the old fox Angana would have a legitimate reason to lead the army to encircle him.
In this way, he would not only be charged with disobeying military orders, but also face the danger of annihilation of the entire army.
If he went, he would die; if he didn't go, he would give Angana an excuse to destroy him.
This was a clearA blatant conspiracy!
Thinking of this, Hood gnashed his teeth and cursed angrily: "This damn old guy!"
He knew in his heart that Angana must have noticed that he had killed Hagen, so he was desperate and used this method to get rid of him.
How to solve this problem?
Hood thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a good solution. In the end, he had to turn his attention back to the messenger.
Since the problem can't be solved, the only way is to get rid of the person who caused the problem.
Perhaps it was because they felt the strong murderous intent in Hood's eyes that was like a substance, which made the four guards shudder involuntarily, and their hair stood up all over their bodies.
However, the messenger with bruises on his face, who was completely different from the reaction of these four people, still lowered his head, and was unaware of what was happening outside.
"Nott..." Finally, Hood opened his mouth slightly and called Nott's name gently, and then he slightly lowered his palm.
Nott immediately understood, a ferocious smile appeared on his face, and then he raised the saber in his hand without hesitation, and was about to chop down the guard in front of him.
But at that moment, Hood suddenly stopped him from falling.
"Wait, go and call five newly recruited Vlandia recruits and let them do it." Hood said calmly.
For him, since he had to kill people anyway, it would be better to let those Vlandia recruits who were still at the first level do it instead of Nott, who had already been promoted to the top level.
It would also allow these recruits to take this opportunity to gain some combat experience points, so as to grow faster.
Nott nodded after hearing it, then turned around quickly and left in a hurry.
It was not until this time that the envoy who was late to realize realized that he was going to be killed.
Instantly, fear surged into his heart like a tide, and his legs seemed to have lost all their strength, and he collapsed to the ground.
The other four guards were also filled with despair, and the messenger was even more miserable. A pool of water spread from under him, soaking a large area of the ground in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, five Vlandian recruits arrived at the scene, and Hod, who had been silent all the time, gently waved his arms.
Immediately, the five Vlandian recruits swung their weapons without hesitation...
