After hearing Lant's new explanation, Andrew was suddenly unsure. According to Lant, he dismissed Denverson because he deviated from the principles of knights and lords. After Denverson learned about it, he attacked Yavini frantically, regardless of Ochima. Whether Lu was in cahoots with him or not, even his knight viscount couldn't do it.
However, the cunning thing about Lant is that in this way, he has completely taken the initiative in the entire incident: White Tree City is to the west of Yeqi City and is under his control; Yawenni and Gu Leiya are both sent by him;
Denverson, he was exempted, even the legend can be said to be called by him. From Lant's perspective, there is no conflict between the Imperial Capital and Dragon Tooth City, because both factions present are his people, except Andrew.
"Earl Lant is indeed far-sighted." Realizing that he was a little passive, Andrew decided to say something to save the situation, "So is Earl Lant planning to bring White Tree City under the jurisdiction of the Galloping Horse Knights?"
Lant shook his head and said calmly: "Of course not. The galloping horse knights and cavalry in the city will move to the defense within a week. The Maned Wolf Knights will be stationed in White Tree City. In addition, Lan Yuan and Bai Xiao will also send a team of knights each. .”
Long before meeting Yavini and Andrew, Lant had already coordinated with Count Maned Wolf, Kingdom Prime Minister Richelieu Lanyuan and King Toussaint Baixiao.
"Maned Wolf, White Owl and Lan Yuan are not stationed here for free. There are more than 70,000 gold coins in the Baishu City Lord's Mansion. In addition, I bought a piece of land in the southwest of the city and paid 3,000 gold coins. The money will be used for the city. of public funds.”
"You...don't take the Baishu family's money away?" Yawenni was a little shocked.
Rant stood up and looked at the night view of the city behind him, as if everything he did was for this city, "This money belongs to White Tree City, not mine. As a war marquis, I will only requisition local war horses and parts." knight."
"You want to hand over my city to the old maned wolf?" Denverson couldn't accept it when he heard it. "When he was the strongest, he was just a silver knight. Now I am a sky knight. Why do you want to hand over my city to him?" Leave it to him!"
Hearing that Denverson still dared to protest, Yawenni was already furious: "How dare you collude with Ochimaru!"
"Yarvini Golden Moon, you Imperial Capital Knights detained a Field Viscount and Sky Knight without any evidence. Ochimaru Feilong made trouble in the city, killed my eldest son, and destroyed my castle. I ..." As soon as Denverson heard what the elf said, he continued to quibble.
For him, the best situation now is to bite him to death. It has nothing to do with Ochimaru. After all, the madman killed his eldest son. If the lawsuit reaches the Kingdom Council, it may attract many nobles. Sympathy, and Yawenni is indeed eyeing White Tree City, which will cause tension among the local nobles and royal family.
"Denverson White Tree!" Lant shouted the name of the Sky Knight, "You connived with the Feilong family's magister and used the magic furnace in White Tree City to provide magic power to the slave camp and magic tower, nourishing the multi-headed dragon Bolu. Carlos, I have reported this matter to the Kingdom Council.
Princess Halkara Oak represents the royal family, and Her Excellency Revendia represents Red Dragon Rock. They have arrived at White Tree City and are admiring the magic vines that you and Ochimaru cultivated together.
I advise you to save your energy now. If you have time to argue with us here, you might as well think about how to explain it to the pillars of the country. Of course, I think what you should be more worried about is whether Lord Revendia can let you go to the king alive. All……"
When Guleia and his sister heard that their father was coming, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They no longer had to deal with the elves in vain.
On the contrary, the faces of the two elves were not very good-looking, especially Yawenni. She knew that Halkara, the ancestor, was too senior, but she had no interest in fighting for power, and it was impossible to help them fight for control of White Tree City.
"Raven..." Denverson really didn't dare to speak now. He didn't expect that Lant would be able to find his underground plantation along the magic furnace, and he didn't expect that this matter would bring a demigod over.
Beside Denverson, Zato Blue Lion has been watching the conversations of several people and rarely speaks, because his crime is not very serious. He attacked a team of unknown origin before dawn. Even if it is true, It didn't matter that he was from the Imperial Knights. Now that he was caught, the so-called crime was just to make the family pay some money. He didn't want to get rid of the relationship with Denverson who colluded with the monster.
When Denverson spoke, Zato slowly spoke: "Captain Andrew, Instructor Gutov, I have a situation to tell you!"
Seeing the eyes of several people intersecting on him, Zato said calmly: "In the early morning, we received news that a gang in the forest was approaching an oversized slave camp. When I led the people there, , and met Captain Yawenni..."
"What do you want to express?" Yawenni frowned, knowing that there must be nothing good to say in Zato's mouth.
"I think Captain Yaweni is not there by chance, but she leads a group of galloping horse knights to run the slave trade in White Tree City!"
"You..." Yawenni's eyes were filled with anger. Now most of the slaves in the city have been bought by Lant, and most of the escaped slaves have been taken in by Lant. It seems that Lant is indeed the largest slave in White Tree City. of slave owners.
The slave owners reported on Rand as soon as they sold their slaves. This calculation was really loud!
Rant, who was about to go out, looked at the Blue Lion Family Magister with a playful expression: "Oh? So Master Zato, you saw me selling slaves?"
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I know that nearby is your Benma family's slave camp, and there are at least tens of thousands of slaves there!"
Rant turned to look at Andrew: "Captain Andrew, as your majesty's personal war marquis, I will never allow any illegal things in the territory under my jurisdiction. Please immediately send the flying dragon knights to patrol the southeast. If you find any slaves, The camp can be sealed immediately and the demon-supporters in it can be detained. If there are people from Ye Qicheng and the Benma tribe who dare to buy and sell slaves..."
Rant's eyes were fixed on Andrew, looking extremely determined and serious: "I will never tolerate it!"
After that, he left the meditation room without looking back, leaving the magisters who were quite puzzled.
"What's going on?" Yawenni looked at her cousin and made a mouth gesture.
Andrew nodded. Since Lant dared to boast, it meant that he was confident that he wouldn't reveal any evidence. He simply said: "In that case, let's check it out according to the Marquis' request!"
Sure enough, after dawn, the five-dragon formation of the Flying Dragon Knights set off again, and not long after they arrived at the camp where Yawenni was the day before. There was no one in the camp at this moment. Not only that, they didn't see anyone on the way to the camp. to the ranks of any large-scale sport.
The captain of the patrol naturally knew that there were tens of thousands of slaves in this camp yesterday, but now these people have almost disappeared, and he was amazed. However, what he didn't know was that since they left yesterday, Lant had asked everyone in the camp to move quickly to the northeast. On the river 10 kilometers away, there were hundreds of grain transport ships passing by and heading to Yeqi City.
Under the coordination of Mr. White Wolf and Mr. Lujiao, each of these ships only carried half of the cabin of food, and the remaining space was used for slaves to live in. The food in the cabin could also be eaten by slaves. The original 200 ships of food required nearly It took 300 ships to transport it, and less than half of the slaves were transported.
The remaining slaves built a camp on the spot under the leadership of Imola. In the next month, all southern grain ships will pass through this place. The food on the ship will become supplies for the slaves, and the vacant cabins will used to transport them.
Since the camp is located in the forest, it is almost the same as the lizard tribe. When the flying dragon patrol passed by, they only thought that they were a slightly larger tribe or gang, and would not associate it with Lant at all.
