Chapter 70 Confrontation
"Where is the person in charge of Hilton? Come out and talk to your grandpa!"

Owen stepped out of the carriage, only to see Lothar, as tall as a hill, shouting loudly at the back of the convoy.

"I thought who was barking here. It turned out to be the third master of the Fontaine family. I don't know what advice the third master has?"

When the two met, there was a strong smell of gunpowder.

Lothar frowned, about to explode.Just on the side hurriedly grabbed him, and said to Owen, "Master Owen, can you come over and talk?"

"Hmph!" Owen snorted coldly, "What is there to talk about between our two families?"

Just's face darkened: "Master Owen was born in a noble family, so he should be very clear that there are no fixed rules for grievances and hatred between nobles. Today's enemy may be tomorrow's friend. Regardless of these, Master Owen should see Look at your own situation, and then think about whether you want to reject our kindness."

It turned out that without knowing it, the convoy had passed the fork and entered the small mountain road.

Where everyone is now, there are towering rocks on both sides, and the rock walls are smooth and difficult to climb.And the path in the middle is long and narrow, only wide enough for a carriage to pass by.

If Owen has a master with comparable strength, this kind of terrain will be impossible for one man to guard against.But now the highest level is only the bronze level, facing the silver fighter Lothar, there is no chance to rush forward and make up for the quality with quantity.

Even a little stop to buy time for his companions to escape may not be able to do it.

Owen was unmoved at all, with a colder expression on his face: "I'm just a small caravan leader, what Second Master Just said should be discussed with my father. Listen to Second Master's voice The tone of voice, could it be that you have made up your mind to use force and violence if you can't agree?"

Just was silent.There seems to be no surprise to this result.

Lothar over there couldn't hold back for a long time, and shouted loudly: "So what?"

As he spoke, he took out an ax from behind and held it in his hand.The powerful warriors behind got off their horses and drew their weapons.

The side of the Hilton convoy was very nervous, and the warriors on the carriage at the end of the queue also took out their weapons and were on full alert.

For a while, the atmosphere became extremely tense, and the battle was imminent.

Suddenly, a young voice suddenly sounded.

"I have long heard that the third master Lothar of the Fontaine family is a hero. Now that I see him, he is as domineering as the rumors. It's just that I have always been timid. Be careful, don't accidentally chop me up too."

Lothar looked at the young man standing beside Owen, his eyes fixed.

"The third young master? The third young master of Marquis Helmut?"

Those three young masters had red lips, white teeth, a face like a crown jade, and an elegant demeanor like a good son in the world.Hearing this, he grinned and bowed his hands to Lothar: "That's right. Unexpectedly, the third master also knows the boy's name."

With a "click", the ashen-faced Just fiercely clenched the folding fan in two.

This young man with a warm smile is one of the three Marquis families in Edinburgh, the patriarch of the Remet family, and the third son of Marquis Helmut.Because of his good looks and talent, he is an outstanding romantic figure among the younger generation in Edinburgh, known as the "Three Young Masters".His original name, but not many people remember it.

Because the eldest son of Marquis Helmut, who is also the eldest brother of the third young master, has a calm and capable personality, and is also a rare young talent.In addition, he has already taken over part of the affairs of the Rimet family for many years and has achieved outstanding results. He is an undisputed candidate for the future patriarch. The third young master theoretically has no possibility of taking over the throne of the patriarch.

However, people did not despise him for this.Just because the third young master and his elder brother were both descended from the wife of Marquis Helmut, the two had a very good relationship since childhood.It can be foreseen that when the eldest son of the Marquis succeeds to the position of patriarch, the authority of the third young master will not be reduced, but will only increase.

He suddenly appeared in the Hilton family's convoy, and the meaning behind it is beyond words.

Seeing his second brother, Lothar secretly made a chopping movement with his left hand.

Just weighed in his heart for a moment, and finally shook his head helplessly.

Different from the Hilton family, the Rimet family has a deep foundation, with an intricate network of relationships throughout the entire glorious empire, and its strength is even greater than that of the Fontaine family.

If the third young master, an important member of the Rimet family, is killed, it will be tantamount to a deadly confrontation with the powerful Marquis family.Provoking a strong enemy when one's own side is weakest is tantamount to courting death.

Even if you don't let anyone go, it's useless to make things clean.Everyone can guess who did it.The Fontaine family dared to file an aristocratic lawsuit against the nouveau riche Hilton, but they did not dare to play this game with the extremely senior Rimet family.

The third young master couldn't be killed, and with such a heavyweight witness at his side, it was only a dream to wipe out Hilton's person without a trace.

Although the last interception plan failed, Just knew that his side had lost the initiative in the battle.But the action was frustrated again, which still made him feel very lost.

Fortunately, Master Fang Dan, who is known for his wisdom and strategy, has always been used to keeping his back in his work.

Just snorted coldly, and returned to the carriage.

The third young master and the third master have similar names, but they seem to have nothing in common.After some non-nutritive polite exchanges, they returned to their respective teams.

Hilton was in front, Fontaine was behind, and the two teams continued to move forward slowly.

The third young master sat down safely, and asked Owen for credit: "Master Owen, I helped you escape just now."

"Then thank you, Third Young Master." Owen thanked without sincerity, without even raising his eyelids.

"Hehe, no need to thank you. But they couldn't be besieged, and they continued to stick it like a dog's skin plaster. What should we do now?"

The Hilton family and the Remit family are obviously already walking together, but for some reason, the two of them, who are counted among the younger generation, are at each other's lips, and they seem to dislike each other.

Owen raised his head and looked up at the sky: "Didn't you just say that everything is already planned, the third young master just sits and watches the show."

The third young master remained silent and looked up like him.His eyes flickered, thoughtful.

The convoys of the two companies moved forward one by one.

Suddenly, there was a violent vibration on the steep mountain wall.With a loud bang, several huge stones from the millstones rolled down from above.

The landing point was right behind the Hilton team, the first carriage of the Fontaine family.

Facing the sudden violent attack, the coachman who was driving the carriage only had time to yell, and he was crushed underneath together with the carriage and goods.

The martial artist guarding the side finally reacted quickly and jumped away in time before the boulder crushed the top, so as to avoid the bad luck of being crushed into meat paste.

I saw a few figures appearing on a huge protruding boulder beside the stone wall.

A burly man who was about the same size as Lothar shouted, "I drove this road, and I planted this tree. I want to pass here, and I will save money to buy roads!"

Another short old man laughed and said, "Hilton's gentlemen have already paid the toll, so they can pass safely. These are the noble gentlemen of the Fontaine family, what do you say?"

The tall and burly one is a violent bear.

The little old man is the rat king.

Silent aside, the one with gray hair was Gray Wolf.

In addition to the cunning fox, there are three of the four major bandits!
Just thumped in his heart, screaming inwardly that it was not good.

Miscalculated!
He had made two-handed preparations for this operation.

One is to kill Hilton's entire caravan. While attacking the opponent, it also boosts the morale of one's own side, and even deters dissidents in the noble alliance.

Another candidate is to follow the Hilton caravan and pass through the business road.Let everyone in Edinburgh see that the business channel has been opened up, which will not only benefit the Hilton family, but everyone can come to share a piece of the pie at will.

For this reason, he had already ordered that if he encountered bandits, he would quickly catch up with Hilton's convoy and mix with them.At that time, there will be me in you, and you will be in me. If you want to fight together, if you want to walk together, you will walk together.

Unexpectedly, the thieves seemed to have expected it a long time ago. They chose such a terrain, and the two convoys were completely separated with one move of falling rocks.

There are also capable people in the opposing team.

Just lamented in his heart, but he still managed to negotiate: "I don't know what is the calculation of the road money for the leaders?"

Shu Wang chuckled: "I see you have a lot of people, horses, and cars. This toll is not cheap."

"How much should that be?" Just suppressed his anger, still hoping to talk as much as possible.

"Well, we don't want money, just leave all the goods on the car, and you can go there. Don't worry, we are trustworthy. We told you to go there, and no one else will come to trouble you later. .”

The Shu King looked as if he wanted to be beaten for "making you cheap".

Just in time, Owen's gleeful voice came from ahead: "Men of the Fontaine family, it's getting late, and we have to hurry, so we won't wait for you. The leaders are very talkative, please hurry up!" Talk slowly, everyone get close. Hahahaha!"

We are a caravan, not a tour group.The goods are gone, so why not go sightseeing in Krakow County?

"That's nothing to talk about!"

Lothar yelled angrily, didn't even greet others, stepped on his feet hard, and the whole person rose into the air, and rushed straight towards the boulder on the stone wall.
