The spring was bright and cloudless.
A little farce last night did not have much impact on the military.
As soon as the sky dawned, the army set off as usual and continued to chase the traces of the troll northward.
Of course, the word "chasing" is not quite appropriate.
Because the speed of the Black Cavalry Army is too slow.
Colin always felt that Marquis Garcia seemed to be waiting for something on purpose.
Moreover, advancing at such a slow speed, I am afraid that the troll army has already evacuated the northern border.
Perhaps, this is what Marquis Garcia intends to do?
Win without a fight?
Although he was full of doubts, Colin did not dare to question the supreme commander of the Black Cavalry.
Moreover, no one here, or even in the entire northern border, dared to question Marquis Garcia's military orders.
Behind the fast-moving army, Colin once again lay back on the flatbed trailer he had just said goodbye to.
In fact, his injuries this time looked scary, but they were not dangerous at all.
Vera was so frightened that she found Archbishop Raven again and asked him to personally cast a healing spell on Colin.
The healing technique cast by the Archbishop himself was indeed very effective. In just one night, Colin could already feel the itching of the wound, and there were signs of healing.
But he wasn't too happy.
After all, what he wants is not healing, but holy water!
Unfortunately, the Archbishop's holy water really ran out.
Alas, a good show he put on was wasted.
It seems that I will have to find a way to get some holy water from the church in the future.
After all, compared to the blood of high-level knights, although pure holy water is rare, it is relatively easier to obtain.
Moreover, it is safe, stable and risk-free.
Just as Colin was lying on the trailer and starting to think about the idea of church, Oliver hurried over and reported:
"Lord Colin, Salta...he..."
"He ran away?" Colin glanced at the sweaty fat man, and a ferocious look flashed across his face.
If Sal really dares to run away, Colin will definitely accuse him of deserting, making it impossible for him to survive in the entire northern border.
"No, no, he didn't run away."
"Does he dare to come?" Colin was a little surprised now.
How dare a little mercenary disobey a noble's orders?
Colin was about to ask Knight Raymond to kill the filial son, but he heard Oliver shake his head and say:
"No, Thrall has already joined the Sudo family. And when I asked Knight Cynthia for someone, she...she..."
"What did she say?" Colin's voice was a little cold.
Oliver shrank his head and whispered: "She said... you are not qualified to order people from the Sudor family..."
"Haha." Colin's face flashed with green energy.
This filial son saw the situation clearly, and he hugged another thick leg so quickly.
And that crazy woman from the Suduo family seems to be really planning to fight Colin to the end.
Taking a deep breath, Colin calmed down.
He felt there was no need to be anxious.
The Sudo family that lost its fiefdom is just a thing of the past. How long can that crazy woman protect Thrall?
Sooner or later, Colin will send that filial son to hell to reunite with his father.
However, this time, Colin seemed to have miscalculated.
Because just a few days later, Bingyan City was recaptured by the Suduo family.
Moreover, the entire recovery process is incredibly simple.
When the Black Cavalry slowly moved northward, they discovered that not only did they not encounter any troll army along the way, but the trolls had also completely given up on the cities they once occupied.
Yes, give up completely.
The troll soldiers inside disappeared completely, as if they had never been there.
As a result, the fleeing lords and nobles who were gathered by the black cavalry along the way suddenly became energetic.
They led their remnant defeated generals to "kill" into the empty cities again and announced that they had regained the lost territory.
Because there are black cavalry troops maintaining order.
There was no fight between you and me. All the lords tacitly agreed to only lead their troops into their own fiefdoms and did not rob other people's cities.
There are even a few families whose heirs are all dead, and no one dares to occupy their territory.
After all, this victory was entirely based on the Black Cavalry's great reputation, and the other lords followed the Black Cavalry to take advantage.
If they still don't know what to do and take possession of things that don't belong to them, then Marquis Garcia will not be polite to them.
In the eyes of the lords, those unclaimed fiefs must be left to Marquis Garcia to deal with.
Therefore, no matter how Colin gritted his teeth and cursed the Sudo family's bad luck, Cynthia regained Ice Rock City without any blood.
A revival of the Sudor family seems to be in sight.
Afterwards, the Black Cavalry Army camped on the outskirts of Bingyan City.
Ice Rock City is the closest large city to the Sky Icefield in the northeastern part of the North. Marquis Garcia seems to be planning to stay here permanently and has no intention of continuing north to counterattack the trolls.
Cynthia was so proud of having recovered Ice Rock City that she immediately invited Marquis Garcia and other nobles into Ice Rock City, and announced that a banquet would be held three days later to celebrate this "big victory."
Colin also received an invitation to the banquet, but he felt that the crazy woman had no intention of settling her differences with him.
Although it was not yet the Hongmen Banquet, Colin felt that Cynthia would never let him have an easy time at the banquet.
Of course, Colin wouldn't be scared.
He also wanted to see what "program" that crazy woman had arranged for him.
Hope you don't let yourself down.
"Oliver." Colin put down the banquet invitation in his hand and called.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
Oliver has been treated as a servant by Colin these days, as punishment for revealing Colin's secret of using a false identity.
"I need a banquet dress. Do you know which tailor shop in Ice Rock City can make it?"
Colin concealed his identity and sneaked out this time, so naturally he would not bring anything like a dress.
Upon hearing this, Oliver quickly put on a flattering smile: "Sir Colin, our Tulip Chamber of Commerce has a station in Ice Rock City. There are definitely skilled tailors there who can help you make a beautiful dress!"
Colin looked at Oliver with a half-smile but said nothing.
Until I saw the fat businessman, my heart went crazy and sweat broke out on my forehead.
"Okay, then go to the place you said."
"Yes!" Oliver breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since he saw Colin's ruthlessness in the battle with Cynthia that night, Oliver was particularly afraid of the heir to the baron.
Even though Oliver had faced other nobles with higher titles, no one had ever been able to bring him such great pressure.
When Colin didn't agree to Oliver's suggestion immediately, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Because the Tulip Chamber of Commerce is Oliver's territory, he suggested finding a tailor there, obviously wanting to take the opportunity to escape from Colin's control.
However, Colin agreed.
This made Oliver even more uneasy.
The banquet was just three days later, and time was tight, so the two of them didn't delay and immediately went to the Tulip Chamber of Commerce station that Oliver mentioned.
