In the main castle in the center of the town.

Conrad listened to the report from his subordinates, smiled slightly, and whispered: "It seems that they have already noticed it."

"In that case, there is no need to wait until tomorrow. Go and gather all the soldiers, prepare for battle, and tell them to clean up the town for Lord Vito."

"Yes, sir!"

The two elite guards bowed their heads and responded, then walked out of the room quickly, rode on the horses that had been prepared long ago, and quickly left the main castle.

In an alley at the west gate, Jeff carefully stuck his head out and looked outside. After a careful inspection, he quickly shrank back.

"How is it?" A senior robber asked in a low voice.

"Something is wrong. All the guards guarding the west gate have been replaced. They are all people I have never seen."

After speaking, Jeff frowned and said: "And it seems that the security is stricter. Everyone entering the city must be checked. It was not like this before."

"What should we do?" The senior robber asked nervously.

"You continue to observe here, I'll go to the East Gate to take a look." Jeff arranged.

"Understood." The senior robber nodded.

Then Jeff carefully pulled the hood on his head, pretended to be a passerby, and quickly walked towards the East Gate.

At this time, a team of 80 people appeared at the East Gate. They were well-equipped, sharp-eyed, and walked into the corridor in a uniform pace.

In front of them was a knight riding an armored warhorse, wearing a chain mail inside, a heavy armor outside, and a flat-topped helmet on his head.

He held the reins in one hand and the long sword hanging on his waist with the other hand. He also carried a two-handed sword on his back, and there were two knight attendants on each side of him.

At this time, the captain of the guard guarding the East Gate saw him coming, his body trembled, and immediately stepped forward to salute respectfully: "Lord Hagen..." There was a hint of fear in his tone.

The knight on the warhorse tilted his head slightly, looking at the captain of the guard who was trembling all over and dared not look up. A cold voice sounded from under the helmet: "Waste!"

Hearing this voice, the captain's legs softened and he almost knelt on the ground.

The knight ignored the captain of the guard and continued to lead the team towards the main castle.

"Captain, are you okay?"

After the figure of this team of elite soldiers completely disappeared, two guards hurried forward, supported the captain of the guard with weak legs, and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, it's okay... I didn't expect that the person sent by Lord Vito this time was Knight Hagen." The captain of the guard waved his hand, exhaled, slowly stood up, looked at the direction where the knight left, and muttered to himself.

"Knight Hagen?"

A guard heard the captain's whisper and asked curiously: "Captain, who is Knight Hagen?"

"Who is Knight Hagen? The one riding the warhorse just now is him." The captain of the guard returned to normal at this moment. He pursed his lips and pointed in the direction where the team of soldiers just left.

"Who is he?" the guard continued to ask.

"Who? I tell you, don't have nightmares after listening to this."

After saying that, the captain of the guard narrowed his eyes, as if he was lost in memory: "I remember that was when Lord Vito first came to the town. At that time, the town was not as peaceful as it is now. There were thieves, robbers, robbers, and criminals."

"Every day in the town, people kill and are killed. Under such circumstances, local residents can only live in fear and dare not go out."

"This also made young Lord Vito dissatisfied. After all, Rhine Town had been granted to him by the old Marquis of Angana and became his territory. Naturally, he did not want to see a chaotic territory."

"So at that time, Lord Conrad, who came with Lord Vito, proposed a suggestion to expel all the criminals from Rhine Town and let the town return to normal."

"Lord Vito agreed to this suggestion and handed the matter over to Knight Hagen who came with them."

"Then a killing began..."

At this point, a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the captain of the guard, as if he saw the scene at that time.

"Captain, what's next? Keep talking." Seeing the captain in a trance, the two guards quickly reminded him.

The captain of the guard came back to his senses and took a deep breath. After calming down a little, he continued: "At that time, the thieves and robbers immediately broke out in riots after hearing the news. They teamed up with the local thugs in the town to attack the main castle, demanding that Lord Vito withdraw the order and execute Lord Conrad who made this suggestion."

The two guards widened their eyes, their faces full of disbelief. Attacking the main castle, these lawless people are so brave!

However, the captain of the guard continued to talk, and the two onlyHe could suppress his surprise and listen attentively.

"Lord Vito was young at that time, and he was the eldest son of the old marquis. How could he agree to the demands of those thieves? This would not only damage his reputation, but even the old marquis would be disappointed in him."

"Those thugs were numerous and powerful. They thought that they would make Lord Vito feel afraid by relying on their numbers. No one expected that Lord Vito would directly choose to fight back."

"Then, Lord Vito ordered Knight Hagen to lead fifty soldiers from Fort Kalba to attack the thugs."

When he said this, the captain of the guard suddenly stopped. He sighed faintly, as if he didn't know whether to continue.

In the face of his action, the two guards who were excited to hear it hurriedly urged him.

"What's the result? What's the result..."

The captain of the guards looked at the two guards and smiled, and continued: "The result is very simple. The thugs were defeated."

"More than 300 thugs were defeated in one blow, and the rest were directly ordered by Lord Hagen to be buried alive..."

Buried alive...

Hearing these two words, the two guards' eyes widened instantly, and their pupils were full of shock, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

"More than 300 people, all buried alive?" A guard asked stutteringly.

The captain of the guard nodded silently.

The two guards who got the answer were so shocked that they got goosebumps, felt cold air coming out, and shivered involuntarily.

On the other side, a horse guard came to the team led by Knight Hagen and blocked their way. After the horse guard turned over and dismounted, he shouted:

"Lord Hagen, Lord Conrad asked you to lead the soldiers to go directly to the tavern street. The other guards and militia have already rushed over."

Knight Hagen nodded, then turned around and walked slowly towards the tavern street with the large group of soldiers behind him.

In the tavern.

Hod had put on armor at this moment, quietly waiting for Monkron and the others to return, while the remaining robbers sat on the stools to conserve their energy.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from outside the tavern, followed by various roars, shouts of killing and... the sound of arrows breaking through the air.

"Defense!!!"

Instantly, Hod's face changed drastically, and he roared.
