Chapter 43 Mutations and Quick Wisdom
They left the dark river.

Because except for the ogre controlled by Iveta, all the ogres in the underground cave have been wiped out.

Evita decided to act that night.

Otherwise, the Children of the Forest will soon realize that something is wrong with the Ogre, and then realize that they are carrying the Ambrose Taboo Book with them, and realize that they have discovered that the Children of the Forest have secretly controlled Baron Morrow's territory.

Ivita and the others untied the two horses pulling the carriage as riding tools, and wrapped the two famous swords with cloth strips to prevent them from being recognized by the children of the forest.

And put the pile of currency issued by an unknown country and era on the carriage.

As for the pile of rusted iron, it was really useless, but Iveta still brought the pile of rusted iron with him, in case he could meet a businessman who recycled iron raw materials!
Iron in this era is not cheap, even refined iron ore can be sold again.

Not to mention that these are just rusty swords.

Then, he asked the ogre under his control to pull the carriage and serve as a labor force for Alicia and Rayleigh.

The Hearthstone witch enhanced the charm with magic, so that the ogre could not escape from the controlled state.

So, a group of them rode two horses, left the woods, and returned to a small plain area beside Baron Morrow's castle.

As soon as they returned to the castle in the middle of the night, they realized that something was wrong.

First of all, candles were lit everywhere in the castle, and the fire illuminated the windows of the castle.

Bright lights.

Secondly, unlike the daytime, there were more guards patrolling, and many infantry and cavalry wearing cotton armor and armor entered Baron Molo's castle from the outside.

Ivita and the others couldn't help but feel their hearts sink.

Could it be that Baron Molo has issued conscription orders to all parts of the baron's territory?

The old witch's expression changed drastically. "Your Majesty, let's run away, they have already found us. We don't have an army to fight them!"

"I've never fought a war, that's not what a witch of my level should do!"

Branton's eyes flickered, and his eyes were filled with fear. "Why did the children of the forest suddenly summon the troops of all the vassals, and why the castle was suddenly put under martial law. Did the children of the forest find out that I was missing? Your Highness, there are soldiers over there who saw us, and they are coming."

"We're done."

Not far away, five soldiers guarding the gate came over with weapons, looking very unfriendly.

Ivita's mind turned rapidly, "No."

"If the baron issues a feudal call-up order to the territory, even if the vassals from all over the country set out immediately, it will take at least half a day to arrive."

"And the time you sneaked out of the castle was in the evening, which is not the right time."

"What's more, it's impossible for the vassals from all over the place to go on the road immediately. They need to prepare. They can come to the castle at this time at the same time, and they should have agreed a time long ago."

Ivita reacted and said to everyone: "Everyone, the entry of these troops into the castle has nothing to do with us."

"This should have been an order that was issued a long time ago, at least a week ago."

"We just happened to run into each other."

Seeing everyone's expressions of embarrassment, Ivita tried to encourage them and said, "Have you ever heard a saying, the brave wins when we meet on a narrow road!"

"It's already here, so don't flinch casually."

"Fight against the past!"

"We must have strategic determination, so let's go ahead according to the plan."

Branton said fearfully, "My lord, but I am afraid of showing my cowardice."

"Leave it to me," Evita said.

At this time, the guards were already standing in front of them.

When Branton saw the leader, his heart skipped a beat. "Uncle Angel, why are you here?"

Angel, who had a scar on his face, couldn't stop looking at Ivita and the others, with a cold light in his eyes. "You have the nerve to say that the baron was furious when he found out that you had sneaked out of the castle."

"What the hell did you do?"

"Say!"

After being yelled at by Angel, Branton said subconsciously: "I'm going to find my sister, I..."

"Looking for your sister? Going out in the middle of the night to find someone who doesn't exist at all, and troublesome so many people. These explorers are playing crazy with you." Angel's eyeballs rolled around strangely, revealing a With a strange expression, "You don't have a sister at all, don't you know?"

"Guests, I really made you laugh. There is actually something wrong with this kid."

He pointed to his head.

Hei Lang immediately revealed it cooperatively. "I think so too."

The old witch thought so. "Then you should take good care of this kid and don't let him run around all the time. Since this kid has a problem with his mind, he should be locked up."

"So as not to cause trouble for you."

"When the time comes, you will die without knowing how to die."

For example, a certain demon god.

Uncle Angel didn't notice that the old witch was mocking him, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief. "That's what the lady said."

Poor Branton became a mentally ill man in just a few lines of conversation.

This is the terrible thing about using the skin of your loved ones to deal with you.

These children of the forest can easily stigmatize you.

If you don't know the existence of dryads, many people will immediately believe the evaluation of you from your relatives.

Angel said: "Guests, please go back, I want to take this worthless guy back."

"Tonight is also the gathering day for our vassals in the Baron of Morrow."

"You'd better leave."

Ivita suddenly understood that today is probably the day when the dryads are ready to completely control the human army.

That's why they summoned the army strangely at night.

It's just that they can obviously spend a few years to slowly replace the heads of the barony's army one by one. Why are they so anxious to forcefully control the army?

In other words, why did they want to control the Barony of Morrow, and what made them so anxious to strengthen their control over the human army.

Ivita said to Angel who was about to take Branton away, "Please wait."

"Through the efforts of our explorers, we have indeed discovered that Lord Branton does not have a sister at all."

"But we have a new discovery. We found an ogre."

As soon as this remark came out, Heilang and the others looked at Ivita in horror.

How did you say it yourself?

Didn't you say yes, don't reveal it?
Angel suddenly turned his head, his expression distorted for a moment. "You said, you found... what?"

"Your Excellency, I found the ogre." Evita said calmly. "Just over there in the woods, we got into a fight with it and got hurt."

"Your Excellency Branton and I want to report to Barony Morrow that ogres have appeared near the territory."

Murderous intent flashed in Angel's eyes.

But at this moment, the four human soldiers behind Angel spoke in surprise.

"Ogre? That thing hasn't appeared for a long time. Is this news true? Explorer, don't talk nonsense."

"If this is the case, we can understand why the baron summoned the army. It turned out that he wanted to attack the ogres."

Angel realized that there were four human soldiers behind him, and immediately restrained his expression, trying to look like a normal officer. "Tell me the situation carefully."

"I'll tell the Baron."

"You don't have to go."

Evita shook her head. "The situation is too complicated. I want to tell the baron myself."

"And Lord Blanton is also a witness to this incident."

"I want to see the Baron with Lord Branton."

Ivita saw that Angor's hand was always on the hilt of the sword. He pretended not to see it, but raised the corners of his mouth instead. "If we find an ogre, we can report it to the Explorers' Association and get a reward. Moreover, Baron Molo should also give us some rewards."

"Your Excellency Branton promised us the money before, but he didn't give it. It seems that His Excellency Branton is really not very smart, and promised us a reward that we couldn't even afford."

"So I wanted to receive the reward, I'm really greedy." Angel showed a hint of understanding, and disdain and sarcasm flashed in his eyes. "Okay, I can take you to see the baron, and let you tell in detail how you met the ogre in front of the baron. But those who lie will be hanged. I hope you don't regret your decision now. "

"Don't worry, we won't regret it." Ivita laughed. "Your Excellency, please lead the way."

Angel sneered.

Damn greedy explorers, you will see me later, go to hell and regret it.

As soon as he heard that Ivita had to report to the association in exchange for a reward, he was already determined not to let Ivita and the others leave.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Angel allowed them to meet the baron.

The plan has taken another big step on the road to success!

Hei Lang and Lei Li looked at Ivita in admiration. His Highness's reaction was really fast, and he was able to tell a lie of nine truths and one false in such a sudden change.

Evita followed.

He knew that he had miscalculated before.

Originally, he planned to return to the castle with Branton, and then take advantage of Branton's invitation to meet the baron to hunt the baron.

However, who knew that tonight was actually the time for the baron to summon the army.

Then the other party will definitely refuse to meet with himself and others.

People are busy.

As a result, Ivita was quick to get wise, and suddenly told the ogre's information with nine truths and one falsehood.

This will definitely attract the attention of the children of the forest, and the children of the forest will also be curious about how far they understand the ogre.
