Chapter 103
"not bad!"
Dean replied, stood up at the same time, took a chair for the baron's lady in front of him, and invited her to sit down. 【First release】
"You think I'll forgive you if you do this?"
The lady of the baron's family stared at Dean, a bit like an irritated kitten, not only baring its teeth and claws, but also seemed to want to jump up and bite.
"I just want you to sit down and talk. After all, what we need to discuss cannot be completed in a short time; as for forgiveness? May I ask Miss Lily, have I done anything to apologize to you? If so, Please let me know, I will correct it, and if not, please sit down and let us discuss how to deal with the nephew of Baron de Fendi-although the two-day journey is not long, but if you want to, some Accidents can still happen!"
After speaking, Dean walked back to his bed and sat down just like before.
"you!!"
The lady of the baron's family opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words reached her mouth, she realized that she couldn't say anything.
After all, as Dean said, what did the other party have to do to her?
Based on the relationship between the two parties, Dean has already fulfilled his duties as a guard, and even performed extremely well, rescuing and embarrassing her twice. Facing such a guard, what can she say?
Venting dissatisfaction? Strong words?
Although the young lady of the Baron's family really wanted to do this, the education she had received all along made it impossible for her to disregard her own face like this.
Therefore, in the end, the young lady of the baron's family sat down angrily.
"Huck has already mentioned the nephew of Baron Defendi to me before, but I think you should know more. Can you describe the nephew of Baron Defendi in detail?"
Dean ignored the anger of the Baron's lady at all, and asked directly after seeing the other party sitting down.
"The nephew of Baron Defendi... Heh, it's more appropriate to call him his son—this is private. Everyone knows it!" Although the lady of the baron's family was angry, she didn't keep her mouth shut because of anger. On the contrary, she Said very carefully. "Culd De Fendi is as cunning and gloomy as that Baron De Fendi. He has made several 'actions' against our Tillland by De Fendi,
He planned it all—caused us considerable damage, and..."
Speaking of this, the young lady of the Baron's family paused, showing slight hesitation.
However, after a while, the young lady of the baron's family continued: "Furthermore, according to the inferences of my father and His Excellency Ikos, the other party should have internal support in Tyre!"
"Internal response? Spy!"
Huck was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes widened in surprise.
"Well, Deputy Head Huck, do you still remember our hunting last time?"
asked the lady of the baron's family.
"The time the baron was assassinated?"
Huck's expression became serious. Obviously, this rough man also began to realize that something was wrong.
"It was that time, it was a hunting within the family, and no one outside would know about it—and to arrange such an assassination, one must know the exact time and place... If it wasn't for the fact that my father just sprained his waist, If you can’t ride a horse, you’re not a squire leading a horse to die!”
When the lady of the Baron's family mentioned the assassination of her father, her face was gloomy.
No matter anyone, they are extremely disgusted with assassination.
"Didn't the assassin say anything?"
Dean interjected.
As for why so sure?
If the assassin hadn't been caught, how could Baron Till and his staff be sure that it was Baron Defendy who did it?
"No. In fact, the assassin was a dead man. He committed suicide after feeling that he couldn't escape. However, His Excellency Ikos, who once traveled in the four northern counties, recognized him and even went with him... ...However, after arriving in Vauban County, the other party went to the Territory of Defendi, and His Excellency Ikos came to the Territory of Tyre!"
The baron's lady explained.
"Such a coincidence?"
Dean mused.
"Are you doubting Lord Ikos?"
Anger appeared in the words of the baroness lady, and Huck on the side looked at his young leader in surprise. Obviously, he didn't understand why his leader would ask such a question; after all, Ikos was in Tire. What the leader did was obvious to all.
In fact, without the assistance of Ikos, the staff member, no matter how hard the lady of the baron family tried, Tilling would not be able to avoid the fate of decline.
"No, I don't mean to doubt His Excellency Ikos in any way—it's just that I have doubts about the matter itself... A dead man, or a dead man that His Excellency Ikos happens to know, no matter how you look at it, it's like a director Good show!" Dean shrugged, indicating that he was not malicious, he looked at the baron's lady and said: "You and Huck have told me more than once that Baron Defendi's cunning, Just think about a cunning person, why would there be such a loophole? Even a dead soldier, compared to the prudence of the other party, should investigate clearly, it is impossible for such a loophole to appear!"
"Maybe it's because of their suspicion?"
The lady of the baron's family asked back unconvinced.
"Therefore, doubts? In the situation at that time, it is the best choice to get rid of it completely-don't doubt, if your father, the baron, is really assassinated, as the successor, will you or your younger brother To avenge your own father? And when the enemy points at Baron Defendi, will you care that the other party is setting up suspicions? I am afraid, you will lead the armed forces of Tyrell to directly attack Defendi, right?"
As Dean spoke, he looked at the young lady of the Baron's family.
Undoubtedly, the previous opponent's performance as if he had a split personality made Dean believe that the opponent was definitely not as mature and steady as he usually appeared.
If you really encounter something that makes it collapse, you will definitely be like a lunatic.
In this regard, Dean is extremely sure.
After all, for a woman who can use her own life as a bargaining chip for fun, there is nothing the other party can't do.
After that, the silence of the Baron's lady undoubtedly showed how correct Dean's guess was.
"You mean someone will provoke us to compete with Baron de Fendi again?"
The lady of the Baron's family looked at Dean and asked seriously.
Such seriousness is a must, because once things are true. Then it's definitely a big deal.
"Perhaps! However, there is no evidence of death now... And, don't forget our problem at the moment, the nephew of Baron Defendi. As for the rest? That is after returning to Tillland!"
Dean spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know, and brought the topic back to normal again.
"After I go back, I will have a detailed discussion with my father and His Excellency Ikos!"
The lady of the baron's family still looked solemn, indicating that she would remember such a thing, and then, the lady of the baron's family introduced the nephew of Baron Defendi with a more detailed description——
"Curd Defendi once went to study in the three southern counties. He brought back a number of skilled craftsmen, making the armed forces in Defendi's territory very powerful—weapons and armor, even the Marquis of Vauban cannot underestimate them. , and this also attracted a lot of mercenaries from Vauban County; after all, compared to the strictness of the Marquis of Vauban, De Fendi's territory is more loose, and the treatment is good!"
When the baron's lady said this, a look of sadness appeared on her face.
"many people?"
Dean asked.
"Well, there are at least two hundred people, all seasoned fighters. They usually stay in Defendi's territory and are hired by Baron Defendi. If they have their own missions, Baron Defendi will not stop them, just More than half of the number of them is needed to protect the entire Defendi territory—the leader of these mercenaries is the nephew of the Baron Defendi!"
The baron's lady nodded.
"Has a good commanding ability, what about his own strength?"
After Dean nodded, he continued to ask.
"My own ability is very weak... the family of Baron Defendi. They are not famous for their bravery!"
As soon as the lady of Baron Till's family mentioned Baron Defendi's family, a look of contempt immediately appeared on her face.
"Strength doesn't just mean force—but luckily, we only need to deal with those mercenaries!"
After reminding Miss Baroness, Dean began to think about the possible situation in his heart and began to make a plan.
undoubtedly. It will be a 'competition' for the colleagues when they leave tomorrow morning.
For the nobles, it is absolutely impossible to have too many items in the 'competition'-wealth, women, and force. If you sum it up, there are only these three items.
And considering that the march in the field and the representative of Baron Tire are his own daughters, the first two items can be automatically discarded.
Then there is only the item of 'force'.
And this is undoubtedly the strength of the opponent - those mercenaries who have been scattered all over the place, with excellent equipment, are undoubtedly a combat power that cannot be underestimated.
Even, far beyond the members of some regular knights.
After all, they have experienced too many actual battles and faced too many dangers. As long as they survived and did not die, they must all have considerable capabilities.
And if these people are gathered together, it is naturally a considerable combat power.
Of course, Dean would not be afraid or back down because of this. If he was afraid and backed down just because of some mercenaries, how could he have faced the knights of Xiti, Gao Sai, and the judges of the cult?
What's more, Dean knew a lot about those mercenaries who looked like vultures.
The opponent's organizational structure, the opponent's behavior pattern, and... the opponent's greed!
If thieves and assassins walk in the shadows, then mercenaries walk in the shadows wearing a glowing 'blanket'—in order to let more people accept them, they are essentially the same as thieves and assassins. What's the difference?
Even, it is far inferior to thieves and assassins.
At least thieves and assassins will abide by professional ethics, but mercenaries?
Their greed makes them believe in Kimpton.
"Mercenaries?"
Dean muttered silently, and then, he subconsciously clenched the long sword beside him, and a trace of killing intent began to pervade—because Dean thought of some traitors back then.
And these traitors were born as mercenaries.
Hatred once again made the hideousness in Dean's heart begin to stand out, and the position he was in at the moment made it unnecessary for Dean to hide anything——
"Miss Lily, leave the itinerary for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to me!"
Dean looked at the lady of the baron's family and said this.
"certainly!"
The lady of the Baron's family nodded affirmatively. Before that, she could see Dean's actions clearly—unlike the ladies of other noble families, the lady of Baron Till's family had experienced many battles. Therefore, she He felt the killing intent that chilled his body before.
Although it is not clear what happened, the lady of the baron's family can be sure that this is not harmful to her trip.
You can tell everything by looking at Dean's slightly cold face.
What's more, if she didn't leave this kind of matter to her guards on this trip, who could she leave it to?
"Captain Dean Ken, I look forward to your performance!"
After the baron's lady finished speaking, she left the room.
"Captain, what are we going to do?"
Leaving the deputy head Huck, he looked at his head and asked subconsciously.
"Of course, 'Welcome' His Excellency Chuld Defendi, join our team!"
Dean said lightly.
