Chapter 48 The Reassured Earl
"Your Excellency, are you going to set off to solve the problem now?" Earl Dogger looked at Hale with a look of surprise and said, "Thank you so much, Your Excellency. I will send someone to prepare the boat right away." "No need for a boat, give it to me
. Prepare six horses, six good horses."
"Six horses?" Earl Dogger was stunned, "Do you want to go on land? The opponent should have gone a long distance first. If you want to catch up on land, I'm afraid it might be too late, so why not... take the water route."
"I said prepare six good horses for me, so just prepare six good horses for me." Hale frowned slightly and said, "I You don't need to teach me what to do."
"Uh...yes." At the critical moment, Earl Dogger did not dare to offend Hale and quickly ordered his men to do it.
Not long after, six strong horses were led to Hale.
"Sir, these are the best horses we can find so far. Each horse can carry two soldiers and run normally. I don't know if it suits you." Earl Dogger asked.
Hale walked closer, looked at it carefully, shook his head slightly, and said with a little disgust: "It's okay, compared with the ones raised in the academy, it can't even catch up with the worst ones. But after all, it is a small place, so it won't be difficult for you. , Just try to use it."
Earl Dogger was quite unhappy, but he still said with a smile on his face: "Thank you, sir."
Hale did not say anything else, he reached into the metal suitcase, fumbled for a while, and took out two things.
One is a silver knife, and the other is a small opaque glass bottle.
After taking out these two things, the six horses seemed to feel the uneasy atmosphere. Their hooves began to dig on the ground and they neighed from their mouths.
Two of the horses reacted more strongly, raising their front legs high and kicking in mid-air, trying to break free and escape. The soldiers nearby saw it and quickly ran forward and grabbed the horse's reins hard.
This only had the opposite effect.
The horses became more violent and neighed so loudly that the soldiers could hardly control themselves.
Hale was holding a silver knife and a glass bottle. When he saw this scene, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "Quiet!" in the Wuluk language.
The sound was loud, like thunder, shaking the branches and leaves of the surrounding trees.
Everyone around was shocked, but the six horses stopped neighing and struggling for an instant, as if they were petrified, and stopped motionless on the ground.
But if you look closer, you can see that the horse's body is constantly shaking, as if it is afraid of something.
Soon, the feared thing happened.
Hale walked up to the horse again with a cold face, holding a silver knife in his hand, and slashed the horse's body. The blade easily cut into the flesh, and a large amount of blood gushed out.
Hale stretched out his hand and followed the wound into the horse's body. He groped for a while, and the next moment the horse fell to the ground with a neigh. Hale retracted his hand and found a beating horse's heart in his hand.
Hale threw the heart to a soldier next to him. Regardless of the surprised and frightened eyes of the people around him, he walked towards the second horse and started the same operation to take out the second heart.
Then came the third horse, the third heart...
the fourth...
the fifth...
soon, the five horses fell to the ground, and all five hearts were taken out. The five soldiers next to them held them in fear, not even daring to express themselves. asthma.
At this time, Hale walked to the sixth and final horse and slashed it again with the silver knife. A long and narrow wound appeared on the side of the horse.
But this time, he did not reach out to get the horse's heart. Instead, he took the heart from the soldier's hand and forced it in one by one.
Soon, five foreign hearts were inserted into the sixth horse's body, and its body began to swell. It began to whine due to discomfort, shook its head, and snorted continuously.
Hale ignored this, opened the stopper of the glass bottle with his hand, and pointed the mouth of the bottle at the horse's wound.
"Sisi~~"
the voice sounded, and insects that looked like thin black threads quickly crawled out of the glass bottle, followed the wound, and entered the horse's body.
"Neigh -"
the horse made a pitiful cry.
Strangely enough, visible to the naked eye, the horse's wounds healed quickly, and its bulging belly shrank back, as if the six hearts were perfectly integrated into the torso.
Black threadworms are constantly swimming under the horse's skin, and you can see the fleshy bags constantly moving on the body surface.
Several black threadworms moved directly into the horse's eyes, shrank into a ball, and occupied the position of the horse's pupil.
Looking at it, the horse's light gray eyes turned into dark black.
The horse was tortured by black threadworms and almost went crazy in pain, and the six hearts gave it powerful strength, making it uncontrollably want to vent.
The next moment, Hale put the silver knife and the empty glass bottle back into the suitcase and locked it with a click.
He stepped on his horse, took the suitcase and flew on the horse. He glanced at Earl Dog and said, "Your Majesty, please wait for my news. I will come back soon with the wives and daughters of your enemies and the heads of those who helped them."
"When the time comes, I will give you a warm welcome."
"No, just let your granddaughter An Qi welcome me by herself, hahaha, hahaha." Hale laughed wildly and spanked the horse's butt, and the horse's hooves hit it hard As soon as he stepped on the ground, a large amount of dust was thrown up.
Before the dust settled, the horses galloped out quickly. Under the control of Hale, they disappeared from everyone's sight in just a few breaths.
Earl Dogger looked at the direction where Hale disappeared and said nothing for a long time.
Until the end, he said to himself: "Is this the power of the wizard and the method of the wizard... The wizard... is indeed a mysterious and strange existence... But fortunately, he is on his side. I feel wronged An Qi But I can really feel at ease this time..."
...
In the blink of an eye, a few days later.
White Pine City.
The area of Baisong City is not large, and its prosperity is not ranked high in the entire Fornalanza Kingdom.
But even so, White Pine City is still a very important city in the entire Fornarensa.
There is no other reason than that White Pine City is located on the main road that connects the north and south of the kingdom. Whether you are going to Lunza from the south or leaving Lunsa to the south, you must pass through White Pine City.
Otherwise, you have to find a way to cross the dangerous shadow forest.
Therefore, White Pine City has become one of the barriers to the royal capital of Lunsa. When the royal capital of Lunsa is threatened, it will do its best to fulfill its duties as a "gatekeeper" and strictly examine all passers-by to prevent the danger from spreading to Lunsa - —For example now.
As the scale of the lunatic disease spreading from the south continued to expand, the fear generated was growing day by day. For this reason, Lensa issued a death order, and White Pine City could not let any suspicious patients go.
As a result, there were two or three times more soldiers than usual at the gate of Baisong City, strictly scrutinizing anyone who wanted to enter or leave the city.
This greatly slowed down the speed of people coming in and out, causing complaints. However, the resentful pedestrians looked at the soldiers with gloomy faces and did not dare to say a word, lest the other party come over with a whip.
There was a long queue at the city gate, almost as far as the eye could see.
At this moment, Li He and Devil Alex appeared at the end of the team, and there was one more person next to them, the noble young woman Isa.
