Transform into a fairy girl

In the evening, the setting sun gradually sets in the direction of the Taiour River Castle.

Mordrake stood outside the camp, looking in the direction of Taiur River Castle. He had been waiting here for a full hour.

It was easy to see from his anxious look that he was nervous and worried.

If Ted Scott really surrendered to the rebels, his situation would be quite dangerous.

The mouth of the Thaur River is the only way to Lacacia. If it is blocked, Mordrac will really have no way to retreat.

When the time comes, once Kreya's rebels arrive, I'm afraid he will have no choice but to be captured.

Ji Ran stood behind Mordrake, watching him silently. She knew his mood at the moment, and no one was more anxious than him.

Finally, a wisp of dust appeared in the west, and then, in the afterglow of the setting sun, a knight galloped over.

This person was none other than Liad, who had made Mordrake wait so long.

"Lead is back~" Ji Ran also shouted in surprise.

Mordrake hurried over to meet him. Liad rode his horse to Mordrake's side, jumped off the horse, and knelt on one knee in front of Mordrake.

"Your Highness, Lord Ted promised to let us pass." Liad said breathlessly.

It turned out that he had been working hard along the way in order to tell Mordrake the good news as soon as possible.

Mordrake was overjoyed after hearing this and quickly helped Liad up.

"Great, Liad, you have really helped me a lot. Come on, call everyone and cross the river tonight." Mordrake immediately greeted Ji Ran.

"Yes." Ji Ran nodded and told everyone the good news.

The group of people immediately packed up their belongings and headed straight for Taiur River Castle.

When Mordrake arrived, Ted Scott did not go out to greet him. He only asked a man who looked like a butler to wait outside the city.

"Dear Your Highness Mordrake, Mr. Ted is too drunk to drink. He is already drunk and unable to welcome you. Please forgive me, Your Highness." The old butler bowed and said.

"It's okay, please convey my gratitude to Lord Ted for me." Mordrake said generously.

At this time, as long as he can safely pass the Taiwu River Fort, he will be lucky. How can he be in the mood to care about other things?

The old butler led Mordrake into the river castle.

Since the Taiur River is the most important natural barrier linking Lacacia and Liguria, after Mordrake succeeded in his sneak attack here, in order to prevent others from following his example, he strengthened the defense of the river fort.

Not only were the walls of the river fort reinforced, but the troops were also added.

From the initial few dozen people, the strength increased to 300 people.

The soldiers are stationed in the river fort, and the river fort also stores a large amount of food, enough for the soldiers to hold on here for half a year.

It can be said that the current Taiour River Fort is an indestructible steel fortress.

After Mordrake entered the river castle, he was placed in a room.

"Your Highness, the conditions here are poor, please forgive me." The old housekeeper said apologetically.

"No, we won't be staying here tonight. Please tell Lord Ted that we hope he will lower the suspension bridge and let us pass." Mordrake discussed with the old butler.

"Your Highness, I'm really sorry. According to the rules, Hebao is here

After sunset, the suspension bridge cannot be lowered. This is the rule you set at the beginning. We adults have always abided by it and dare not violate it. "The old housekeeper said.

After hearing the old butler's words, Mordrake frowned in embarrassment. This rule was indeed issued by him, but he didn't expect that it would now become a stumbling block for him.

"Since you also know that this is an order from His Highness, then, now that His Highness has changed his mind, you just have to follow it. All the responsibilities will be borne by His Highness. Your Lord Ted will not blame you." Ji Ran stood. Said from the side.

The old housekeeper glanced at Ji Ran, and she realized that this woman who had been hiding her appearance in the hood turned out to be an extremely beautiful woman, which was simply shocking.

Mordrake looked at Ji Ran, then nodded to the housekeeper, "Yes, just say that's what I meant."

Seeing Mordrake's insistence, the old housekeeper smiled unnaturally, turned and left the room.

About ten minutes later, the old housekeeper returned to the room.

"Your Highness, I'm really sorry. Mr. Ted is not feeling well tonight and has already gone to bed. The key is always worn by Mr. Ted. I don't dare to disturb him. I would like to ask Your Highness to rest for the night first and talk to Mr. Ted tomorrow. Get the key." The old housekeeper said helplessly.

When Mordrake heard this, he frowned in embarrassment. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing again.

After all, he is also the prince of Lacassia and the governor of Liguria. In terms of status and status, I don’t know how much higher than this Ted Scott. He is so arrogant.

He even delayed his schedule on the excuse of taking a rest.

If something goes wrong, can he afford it?

Although he was very angry, Mordrake didn't want to show it. After all, he was the one asking for help now. If he really pissed off Ted Scott, the consequences would be disastrous.

After much thought, Mordrake had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, then I'll help you tonight. Please guard the city gate and don't let anyone in." Mordrake ordered the butler.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the defenses of Tyour River Castle have never been relaxed and will never let outsiders in." The old butler smiled calmly, then turned and left the room.

About half an hour later, a servant came to the door and brought some food.

It was delicious steaks, freshwater fish special to the Taiour River, and some milk and cheese.

"Your Highness, this is puffer fish from the Taiour River. It is delicious. Please taste it, Your Highness." the servant said.

"Thank you very much." Mordrake said politely.

The servant turned and exited the room.

"Are you hungry? I didn't even let you have a full meal along the way. I didn't expect that the first full meal would be here. Come on, eat it while it's hot." Mordrake looked at Ji Ran and thought. He said guiltily.

"Wait, I'll go first." Ji Ran saw Mordrake trying to eat the pufferfish meat and quickly stopped him.

"Oh" Mordrake was stunned for a moment and saw Ji Ran pick up a piece of puffer fish meat, chew it carefully, and then swallow it.

After about a few minutes, he nodded and said to Mordrake, "Eat it, I'm afraid the food is poisonous."

Hearing Ji Ran's explanation, Mordrake was moved. Now what the rebels want most is Mordrake. As long as Mordrake is killed, the rebels can completely control Liguria. Here Under the temptation of such huge benefits, it is inevitable that Ted Scott will not change his mind. If he tampered with the food, it would be troublesome.
