Chapter 67 Sneak into it
It was a dark and windy night.

Atop the high wall of Moletown, a sentry was dozing in the dark.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind and covered their mouths.

The irresistible fear frightened their brains, and their eyeballs bulged out exaggeratedly due to excessive congestion.

They wanted to scream, but could only helplessly feel the pain of the dagger piercing their throats.

Finally, he fell down with a whimper.

The knights' entourage followed the wind in the darkness, and after solving the sentry posts, they reunited.

Rhodes sat on the edge of the stone wall, chin in his hand, looking at the town below.

There are endless low huts, dirty muddy roads, and few decent buildings to be seen at a glance.

Just like the river mouth towns of the past, the environment in these border towns is extremely poor.

Not even as good as the poor villages within the kingdom.

But it is precisely because of this that the core buildings in the town are particularly prominent.

Rhodes looked at the five-story house at the end of the road.

The neatly stacked bricks and tiles and the exquisite and elegant stone carvings make it stand out from the surroundings, like a luxurious villa standing in a slum.

In a sense, this layout is friendly to the attacker.

This saves me the time of exploration, Rhodes thought.

When he saw his men coming back, he waved his hand to give instructions, and the group approached the house in the darkness.

At the same time, in the lord's castle of Mole Town.

In a brass lamp painted with gold, a whale oil lamp from East China Sea Port was lit.

The orange flames rippled.

The firelight illuminated the room, revealing three figures inside.

One of them was the former baron of Mole Town.

Lord Billard has now been declared a traitor by the principality and is wanted.

This strong man with dark brown skin, who inherited the mole tribe from his ancestors, was now sitting on a chair, looking across with dissatisfaction.

Seeing his gaze, Jarkos, the leader of the Golden Lanterns, showed a flattering smile on his face.

In Jarkos's hand was a long thin chain.

At the other end of the chain, a steel slave collar was placed around the neck of a young girl.

The girl's clothes were ragged, revealing a large area of ​​fair skin.

At this moment, he was hiding in the corner of the room, shivering with his hands on his knees.

Lord Billad looked at the girl, and the dissatisfaction in his eyes deepened.

He said in a cold voice: "Your people searched around the battlefield for a long time, and in the end they found this thing for me?"

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Jarkos quickly replied: "Don't get me wrong, this is different from the kingdom's prostitutes before."

"This woman is from the Count Mark family, the fiancée of the Knight Fuller, a noble lady from the Viscount family of the kingdom!"

To show her worth, Jarkos hastily pulled the chain.

After dragging the girl over roughly, he pulled her hair.

She presented her tearful white face to Billard.

"Look carefully." Jarkos pointed at the eye-catching golden lamp-shaped slave mark on her forehead.

"The Mark family foolishly thought they could control the Golden Lamp, but they didn't know that their so-called noble dignity is worthless in the North."

"Now the fiancée of their family, this noble girl was marked as a slave by her former subordinates. What an interesting story. Believe me, the warriors of the Mole Tribe will like this cargo! They will love her to death!"

Jarkos strives to promote the value of young girls in all aspects.

At the same time, he recalled the arrogant attitude of Fuller who had rushed here a few months ago and bossed him around.

This made Jarkos look pleased, and he gradually increased the force of pulling the girl's hair.

Bright red blood oozed from the roots of the girl's hair.

Billad took the girl from him and ripped her clothes off with a ripping sound.

He grasped her neck with his hands and lifted her up, looking at the bare white flesh in front of him.

"Worthless trash!" Billad said fiercely, throwing her away and throwing her to the ground. "I asked you to catch Fuller from the Mark family, not to snatch such a toy! You incompetent waste!"

Billard roared at Jarkos, drowning him in a spit.

Billard is well aware of his current situation.

Prior to this, he had joined forces with the Golden Lantern, and with the help of the Mole Tribe, he had broken through Fuller's developed territory.

After doing something provocative to the kingdom, he had only one way to survive.

Abandon Moletown and escape to the city of the Mole Tribe.

To do this, he needed to bring spoils of sufficient value in order to gain the appreciation of the tribal nobles and obtain a high position there.

Originally his target was Knight Fuller himself.

However, the useless group of Jinzhandeng let Fu Le escape and only captured a woman.

Fuller's fiancée? Such a woman is worthless in the eyes of the tribal nobles!

"I said I want a man! A man with the blood of the kingdom's great nobles!"

Billard's throat hurt from yelling, and he pushed Jarkos away and sat back in his chair.

He suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Are there any other pioneering knights from the great noble families of the kingdom nearby?"

Frightened by him, Jarkos did not dare to delay and quickly spread out the map and answered:

"The closest one is the bastard Rod Rossdale from Jianling. To the southeast is Charlie Mayfield from Hongshan. And further behind is..."

Jarkos listed the nearby pioneer knights one by one.

Billard's gaze finally stopped at the location of the river mouth town.

He closed his eyes and thought, made a decision in his mind, and said, "Get your people ready, we are going to raid Hekou Town!"

With so many tribal soldiers dead, Billard knew he had no choice when Fuller escaped from him.

Even if all my soldiers are killed, I must take one back with me!
After a while, seeing that Jarkos did not respond, Billard opened his eyes angrily.

"You're deaf eh, are you?!"

At this moment, there was one more person in the room.

As dazzling as gold, her brilliant golden hair gleamed in the firelight.

The person he imagined in his mind appeared before his eyes. At this moment, Billard's pupils suddenly contracted.

In front of him, Jarkos, the leader of the Golden Lanterns, looked at his chest in confusion.

There, he saw an icy white sword tip piercing through his chest, and the cold air froze his blood.

"I'm afraid he can't answer." Rhodes pulled the Ice Blade sword out of his body.

Jarkos' lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he could only fall to the ground weakly.

After dealing with him, Rhodes looked at the lord of Mole Town opposite.

"I have a few questions. Um, are you not happy? Then wait a moment."

Rhodes held his sword in front of him.

Billard in front of him had already jumped up from his chair.

The strong warrior immediately grabbed the hatchet beside the table, raised it above his head, and swung it at him.

Seeing how powerful his attack was, Rhodes did not choose to block.

When the battle axe comes down from above, the body tilts slightly to the side.

The axe blade slid across his body.

During this process, Rhodes clenched his fist and punched Billard in the stomach before he could regain his strength to defend.

"Your movements are too big." Rhodes shook his head and looked at him.

The abdomen is the weakest part of the human body and also the most effective place to strike.

The unreserved force penetrates the enemy from the fist.

After being punched, Billard's tomahawk slipped out of his hand and flew to the side. He curled up in pain and kept dry-heaving.

His level is only average among the elite knights. He is not even wearing armor. With this level, he is not qualified to fight against me in close combat.

Rod judged in his mind, approached, removed his limbs, and tied him to a chair.
