Sower's Knights are stationed five miles outside of Dibis Castle, where the terrain is flat and it is convenient to fetch water and mow grass. After all, apart from knights and war horses, the Knights also have thousands of grooms and retinue knights. There are so many people stationed there. , It’s not just about finding a place.

So when a battle broke out in the castle, the members of the knights who were far away did not know what happened. It was not until the end of the battle that the guards who had escaped from the castle came to ask for help.

Only when the battle was over did the knights come in armor.

Christine looked at the knights who were coming, and thought that it would be great if they could arrive earlier. Seeing the imperial navy soldiers cleaning up the castle, she felt extremely remorseful, and walked out of the suspension bridge accompanied by Liu Peng.

"Miss, are you all right?" The guard who went to ask for help looked at Christine who was safe and sound, and couldn't make a turn, especially when he was still surrounded by the Cathay businessman.

Christine nodded, and said to the guard: "It's just a small commotion. Viscount Suowei has already suppressed them. Mr. Liu Peng is foreign aid invited by the Earl. They will use their army to fight against Hakura's thugs."

"But, today I... well, Miss, I'll go back now." The guard knew that what he said was definitely not as important as what Christine said. After everyone said that, what could he do as a little guard? ?
The guard got off his horse and walked onto the drawbridge. He couldn't ride a horse, because the horse was borrowed from the Knights. He came out by the secret door of the city wall, where only one person was allowed to climb out.

After the guards entered, Christine ignored the knights gathered outside the door, and turned back directly.

The knights who came to support looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling rather anticlimactic.

"What are you in a daze for? It's time to go back. Let's go out of the camp without authorization. If we delay for a long time, we won't be punished by Lord Viscount." Several captains of the knight group talked and left with their people.

Back in the castle, the guard who had just returned had been subdued by Govic. All the people who were still alive in the castle were bundled up and thrown in the front hall, and all the corpses were transported out of the building.

"I've dispatched those cavalry for you, now you should release them, as we agreed." Christine said to Liu Peng expressionlessly.

Liu Peng nodded: "I will definitely release them. When my troops leave the castle, maybe tomorrow, what do you think?"

"As long as you are willing to keep your promise." Christine said, "May you sleep peacefully under the watchful eyes of countless undead."

"When I think of so many dead people watching me sleep, I'm so happy that I can't sleep." Liu Peng didn't care about Christine's poisonous tongue, "After all, I'm still alive, and they——are already dead!"

"Killing so many people, don't you feel guilty?" Christine was a little angry, why she always bickered with this cheap man.

"Sorry, I'm almost dying of guilt, but as long as I think that they are the first to make the move, I feel much more at ease." Liu Peng patted his chest, "Let's do this first, you should go back to your room to rest, and this captain, you want to Count the loot."

"I'm not going anywhere, just stay with them!" cried Christine.

Liu Peng shrugged and said as he walked, "I don't mind if you sleep with the dead."

In the banquet hall on the second floor, Lance was trying his best to deliver the barbecue with fine wine. He may have not eaten for a long time and choked several times.

"Eat slowly. When you are at sea, you will have to eat dry food instead." Liu Peng smiled, and then walked to the piles of treasures. "The system scans the gold in front of you and absorbs it all."

"Scanning... Calculating... A total of 36690 gold coins is equivalent, and it is being absorbed. Report the captain's balance: 36708 gold coins." The system prompted.

In a good mood, Liu Peng directly summoned a gold coin from the system and put it on his hand. When he turned around, he found Lance holding a barbecue and staring blankly.

"What's wrong?" Liu Peng asked.

"I, I just saw that pile of treasures collapsed, as if a lot of things were gone." Lance pointed to the pile of things and said.

"Please don't be curious. As the strongest pirate captain, who doesn't have any secrets?" Liu Peng sat next to Lance and slowly pulled a piece of barbecue into his mouth, "Now you can talk about why you left obviously, But you appeared in the room below the castle, who locked you in?"

Speaking of this, Lance smiled wryly: "You may not believe what I said, but I finally figured out the cause and effect on the way. The Chamber of Commerce asked me to get acquainted with Hakula is a lie, and Hakura's rebellion was all manipulated by the Earl. As a result, it was all calculated by people.”

"What's fake?" To be honest, Liu Peng still didn't understand.

"I guess, the Chamber of Commerce asked me to contact Hakura as a partner to conspire to rebel, and these are all manipulated by the Earl." Lance said, "Those so-called mercenaries are not mercenaries at all, but pirates. Contact the Chamber of Commerce Together with Hakura, the pirates killed the castle guards and imprisoned the earl's family..."

"You mean, these are the tricks that Earl Harrigan directed and performed?" Liu Peng chewed the meat, "Isn't he unwilling to cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce because of the opposition of the local nobles?"

"It's fake, it's all fake, Earl Harrigan is eager to get rid of those vassals so that he can monopolize the power of Astonshire." Lance said helplessly, "The only thing they didn't expect is that I secretly informed the Earl's confidants to escape from the castle. , causing their plan to go awry.”

"This earl is too boring, why didn't you tell that Molesler about this?" Liu Peng said helplessly, "That guy has been protecting the old man until his death!"

"I have to ask that old guy." Lance took a sip of his wine and sighed, "After I figured it out, I think you are quite innocent, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't be involved in this matter Come on, they will never make you a noble or something, I was worried that something would happen to you, so I wanted to go back to the castle to find you."

"What's next?" Liu Peng took the wine bottle and drank heavily, "Why did you almost starve to death in that room?"

"Yesterday, I went back to the castle and met Viscount Sauvy who was out, and I told him that I need to find you urgently." Lance was also a little puzzled, "Then Viscount Sauvy warmly invited me in, and then asked his subordinates to send I locked it inside, it's really weird, I just said there was something urgent, and nothing was revealed!"

Liu Peng narrowed his eyes, felt a little embarrassed, coughed twice and said, "Maybe it's because Christine and I have been married these few days. Being together every day makes her fiancé unhappy, and they planned to annex me yesterday." my troops, or mine wouldn't be dying."

"I said what's going on!" Lance shook his head bitterly, continued to eat the barbecue and said nothing.

But Liu Peng asked: "How about it, if you can't be a nobleman, why don't you go to sea with me?"

"Being a pirate?" Lance asked back.

"I definitely don't want to go. Although I'm not an aristocrat, I'm still a person of status in the port of Terra. My family is proud of itself." Lance said, "So it's impossible to be a pirate, and it's impossible to be a pirate in this life." Pirates can only collect business taxes in the port of Terra and dawdle."

"Are you willing to live like this forever?" Liu Peng asked.

Lance swallowed the meat: "Otherwise? Is being a pirate very promising?"

"That's right, I support your idea." Liu Peng smiled, "Have you considered the aftermath? You came with me."

"Don't worry, I have to thank Viscount Sauvy for not disclosing our identities. I will try my best to keep my relationship with you clear," Lance said.

Liu Peng nodded: "Okay, I will replenish supplies at Taila Port in the end. If you regret it, you can board the ship at any time."

"Thank you for your attention, Mr. Captain!" Lance raised a fork with a piece of barbecue sticking out of it.

After confirming that Lance was not going to board the ship, Liu Peng prepared a box of small gems for him, and then asked Govich to pack everything up. The junior sailors and intermediate sailors left first, walked along the coastline, and encountered "black The Locust stopped after.

Liu Peng has already told the pirates who stayed behind on the big ship through the system, asking them to notify Ella and others to rent the big ship and prepare to take everyone away.

At noon the next day, the "Black Locust" arrived at Dibis Castle, and Celes brought a few boats to anchor near the back gate of the castle.

"Seres, load everything up, how many people can our boat take?" Liu Peng squatted on the rocks by the sea.

Sailisi bowed to him: "About 200 people, it's no problem to squeeze, but we need to land as soon as possible to replenish."

"Okay, I got it." Liu Peng waved his hand to let people start loading. Selis stood aside and asked, "Captain, how did you inform those pirates? Why did he suddenly know that you want a ship?"

What Celis said was that a few days ago, the taciturn pirate warrior suddenly said that the captain needed a large number of ships, and that the "Black Locust" would arrive at Dibis Castle as soon as possible.

Based on their trust in Liu Peng, he and Ella decided to immediately contact a cargo ship that could carry people. Sure enough, they met sailors on the way. After loading them on the cargo ship, the "black locust" accelerated and arrived at the sea area of ​​Dibis Castle.

"Secrets are all secrets. It is said that our sea transportation is so convenient, why did we have to travel by land for four or five days?" Liu Peng was suddenly dumbfounded. What was the reason for walking for nothing?

"It seems that it was because the sea was very windy and turbulent in those days, and it was not safe to go by boat, so I considered going by land." Celis filled in this illogical place for a careless author.

Liu Peng nodded: "It makes sense. In this way, I am not mentally retarded. After all, I am carrying the earl's daughter, so I can't be careless."

While speaking, several small boats were already full of goods, and Liu Peng asked someone to take Christine onto the small boats.

"I will keep my promise to release those people." Liu Peng said to Christine, "It's time for you to be my crew member."

Christine nodded silently, and then the pirates of the West Sea pushed the oars vigorously. With the ups and downs of the waves, the two left the castle full of memories.
