Working Prophet.

Chapter 473 I'm Just a Bard
Kieran found an opportunity to lean next to Jude again, and couldn't wait to ask, "Is the matter resolved?"

The ugly-faced man glanced at him and nodded.

"Are all 25 dead?"

"There are currently 27 corpses in that place," Jude said.

The bard was taken aback, "You also killed the pair of brothers who tipped off the news?"

"Why, do they have a good relationship with you?"

"That's not true. It's just that according to our original agreement, they should have quietly left there before you arrived. It stands to reason that you can't meet them."

"They died before we got there."

"Ok?"

"Actually, when we got to the place you mentioned, we only saw three living people, and they were still fighting over the treasure and the dragon's blood in the bottle.

"They didn't realize until we got very close, and there was no chance to escape.

"Before the final move, I chatted with the guy nicknamed Jushi for a while, and he said that they had a quarrel over the distribution of spoils not long after they arrived here, and the quarrel became more and more fierce...

"In addition, they all drank a lot of alcohol at the time, and the situation gradually got out of control, and people were killed. As a result, not only did no one stop, but the greed in everyone's hearts was aroused, and everyone wanted to swallow the money for themselves. An amazing fortune.

"In the end, a big melee broke out. He was still trying to persuade the fight at the beginning, but seeing more and more people dying, he couldn't stand the temptation, joined the battle, and killed two companions.

"I saw that he seemed to be quite guilty of this matter, so I gave him a sword and sent him to the west."

"Okay." Kieran scratched his head.

This thing sounds bizarre, but it's not surprising if you think about it carefully.

The gang of robbers got together to grab money, and got the greatest wealth in their life by various chances, and then because of this wealth, they killed each other, and were finally wiped out by the black dog guards who came, which can be regarded as echoing from beginning to end.

Kieran plucked his lyre twice, and a sudden inspiration came.

Sure enough, following the weekend teaching, there will be no shortage of creative themes.

But now is not the time to write poetry, the bard tried hard to suppress the eagerness in his heart, and asked Jude again, "Those trophies..."

"I found it too, but it was too conspicuous so I didn't move for now." The deputy head of the Black Dog Guard said.

As he spoke, he took out the bottle of dragon blood from under the cloak, "I also took this back, and I plan to return it to Prophet Merlin."

"No, no, please don't do this, remember what I said, after all, there is something shameful about this matter, so try not to involve the Prophet.

"Everyone who knew about it is dead except you and me." Jude frowned.

"But if one day you and I fall into the hands of the enemy, everyone will know that Prophet Merlin once concealed the truth from those four thousand believers and condoned my evil deeds.

"If we didn't tell the Prophet about this matter, then even if this matter got out, we would be the only ones who would scold him. At most, Prophet Merlin was deceived by us. The nature of the two is completely different.

"You are the deputy head of the Black Dog Guard. Not only do you need to protect the personnel and property of the Shuangxiu Church, but these tangible things should also protect the reputation of the Prophet and the church."

"Even if I fall into the hands of the enemy, I won't say anything." Jude said disapprovingly.

"But I will."

Seeing the deputy head of the Black Dog Guard staring at him, the bard said innocently, "Why, I'm afraid of pain. I'm sure I won't be able to withstand those tortures. I'll answer whatever people ask."

Jude didn't bother to get to know him any more, "Then what about the dragon's blood in this bottle, and what about the goods looted by those robbers? Are we going to share it privately?"

"I don't need it, you can take it all if you want." Kieran shook his head, and then he glanced at the ugly man again, "Actually... I have a better suggestion."

"What advice?"

"Distribute all the money to the people behind me, because this is theirs in the first place, and the bottle of dragon's blood can be sold secretly when we arrive in the capital, and the two sums of money can be sent to them.

"Of course, not now. Otherwise, they might find a place to settle down after getting the money, and they won't go with us anymore. These farmers are very short-sighted." Kieran said leisurely.

Jude carefully looked at the handsome bard in front of him again, and suddenly found that he couldn't see through him at all.

"Are you a good guy or a bad guy?"

The deputy head of the Black Dog Guard asked suspiciously, "You deceived these people before and caused them to be displaced, but now a large sum of money is placed in front of you, but you don't take any money, instead you want to use this money to make up for their losses .”

"I'm neither good nor bad. I'm just a bard."

Kieran chuckled, "Everyone in the Golden Valley calls me Golden Voice, oh yes, I'm still my lord's royal poet on Saturday."

…………

There were no other accidents in the next two days, and everyone left the Elk Valley smoothly and officially set foot on the king's territory.

This place was originally the territory of the three families of Lancayate, Vespasian and Coburg, known as the Three Heroes of the Red Plains.

Although the territory of the three families is not large, the land is very fertile, and it is located in the place of the Fourth World War. There have been constant wars, large and small, and the male members of the family have accumulated rich military experience.

Later, the angry lion Alessandro raised troops, and Coburg chose to send troops to help. As one of the conditions, Alessandro married the second daughter of Baloric, the head of the Coburg family at the time.

As for Sanjie's other Lancayate family, it stood on the opposite side of the Vespasian family and the Coburg family, and was finally defeated by Alessandro.

The two sides fought a decisive battle about twenty miles outside Lionheart Castle.

It was not an easy battle, although in addition to Coburg, Alessandro had already won many allies by virtue of his outstanding personal charm.

The big guys made an oath together at the shore of Fengling Lake.

But many of these big and small families are quite far away, and it is impossible to transfer all the troops here in a short while. On the contrary, the Lankayat family is not fighting alone.

They persuaded the Penrose family of Elk Valley to send troops to help, and promised to give half of their territory to the Penrose family after defeating Alexandro's coalition forces.

The Lancayate family took the opportunity to swallow the territories of Vespasian and Coburg.

Only in terms of military strength, Alessandro's side is still at a disadvantage, and this battle is very important to Nushi. If they lose, not only will they lose the family's territory, but the newly formed coalition may also collapse. .

Fortunately, Alessandro, who was young at the time, withstood the pressure and won the game without any risk.

Not only did they destroy the old rivals, the Lancayate family, and occupied their territory, but they also deterred the Penrose family in Elk Valley, who also joined Alessandro's coalition forces half a year later.
