Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Chapter 504: Keep your word

Ethan and Sophia were both shocked when they heard the number of 7 million.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Master! I'm afraid it's more than that!"

"Okay!" Ethan tried to calm down: "I know, you keep watching them."

Warkin said yes and retreated first.

At this time, Sophia smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that there is no time to care about the Sheffield family for the time being.

7 million! Are the orcs attacking with the whole country's strength?"

Ethan didn't know whether the whole country was attacking or not. He only knew that with this number, humans might have to recall the fear brought by the orcs in 1300 years.

At this time, he was no longer in the mood to chat with Sophia, and quickly called Yekarina to let her pass the news to the North.

Yekarina was the mage that Ethan poached from the Witch Society. In addition to teaching Chrome knowledge, she was also responsible for transmitting information about the movements of the orcs to the North.

After receiving Ethan's instructions, she immediately contacted the person in charge of the North through [Telepathy].

Normally, as long as a connection request is sent, the other party will usually answer it in seconds.

But today, she found that no matter how she sent the request, the other party did not respond.

After many unsuccessful attempts, she reported the situation to Ethan.

Ethan was shocked to hear the news.

What a joke?

The orcs are attacking the whole country, and they can't contact them at this time. What is the Northland trying to do?

Usually, the Duke himself may appear in person, but today even the connection request is responded to!

Even if the Duke is dead, the people in the contact office are still there, why don't they respond?

Is there something wrong?

Ethan's mind is spinning rapidly, and a figure suddenly appears in his mind.

"Nolan!"

Could it be that he controls the contact office?

It's entirely possible!

And the direction of the orcs' movement is Baron Fortress, where General Sagra, the person in charge, is his father-in-law.

Does he want to let the orcs in?

Yes, it must be like this, otherwise there is no way to explain why the orcs are suddenly so desperate.

Thinking of this, Ethan was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

Because if this conjecture is true, it means that the orcs are really going to attack.

Now we must immediately confirm whether the Duke's contact office is really controlled by Nolan?

If so, it proves that all conjectures are correct. Nolan has really abandoned humans and completely stood on the side of the orcs.

Why did he do this?

Forget it, now is not the time to consider the reason, but to quickly confirm the situation and then notify the North.

After thinking for a while, Ethan called Embiid and asked him to ask Kurzman, the liaison officer stationed in Maro City in the North.

Kurzman is Nolan's adjutant. After Nolan went to the elf homeland, he has been responsible for contact with the North.

Just ask him to know whether the Duke's contact office has been taken over by Nolan.

While the other party has not arrived yet, Ethan took Yekarina to the contact room to contact Rand stationed in the North Territory.

Fortunately, there was no accident this time and Rand was successfully contacted.

When Rand saw Ethan coming in person, he knew that there must be something urgent, so he asked, "Lord, what do you want?"

"Rand!" Ethan took a deep breath: "Listen carefully, I want to see Liaison Officer Andy now.

No matter what method you use, it is very important to find him as soon as possible."

"Understood! I will ask someone to find him now!"

After that, Rand told his guards to find Liaison Officer Andy. After doing everything, he came back and said:

"I have arranged for someone to invite Knight Andy. Today is the weekend. He should be in our town and will come soon.

Lord, do you have any other instructions?"

After thinking for a while, Ethan asked, "Are there any ships docking today?"

"There are two ships docking, one is from our family and the other is from Casillas. Is there any problem?"

Ethan exhaled heavily: "You and Alexander quickly pack up, and then take the family members. After I finish talking to Andy, I will take everyone and take our ship back."

When Rand heard this, he was a little confused.

Ethan's words clearly meant that he was going to give up the northern territory.

But the development here was so good, why did he suddenly give up, and in such a hurry?

"Can I ask what happened?"

Ethan hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.

"According to intelligence, the orcs are gathering a large army to attack the Barron Fortress. This time it is estimated that they will not be able to defend it.

Even... I even suspect that the current Barron Fortress may have been controlled by the orcs.

Our territory is so close to the Barron Fortress. If the orcs really attack, we will be the first to suffer. So, while there is still time, you should take people away quickly."

Rand was shocked after hearing this: "How is this possible? I met General Sagra two days ago. He didn't show any abnormality, let alone any signs of being controlled. Do you think the intelligence is wrong?"

"Hey... the specific situation is very complicated, I can't explain it to you one by one. In short, if you want to survive, leave quickly.

Also, when you leave, pay attention, don't cause panic, leave quietly, otherwise I'm worried that you can't leave."

Rand fell into silence immediately.

He really couldn't believe his ears, and couldn't accept this fact.

The territory was peaceful and prosperous, but at this moment, someone suddenly told you that this place was about to become a ruin.

Rand has worked hard here for many years and has devoted countless efforts to the development of this place. He even brought his son here. He has long regarded this place as his home. How can he just give up?

But if what Ethan said is true, then...

After hesitating for a while, Rand slowly said: "I will arrange for the evacuation of personnel, but I hope I can stay here personally."

Ethan was stunned when he heard this: "I think I have made it very clear to you. Why do you want to stay and die?"

Rand lowered his head and pursed his lips. After a long time, he said: "Ethan, I have been displaced all my life, and I have always dreamed of having a home of my own.

When I tried to seize your property, I seemed to be doing everything normal, but in fact... I lived in anxiety and fear every day.

When one When I gave everything back to you, I felt relieved.

Thank you for not killing me, thank you for taking care of my son, and thank you for letting me come to the North.

Here... to be honest, I feel at home.

Hehe... thank you!

Now... it's time for me to repay you!

If orcs really attack, they must step over my body to enter your territory.

I can die in battle, but I will never be a deserter.

Because I once promised you that I would stay in the North forever for you, and I will do what I say. "

Ethan was silent for a moment.

Suddenly I realized that I didn't know Rand.

In my impression, Rand can definitely be called a cunning person.
