Chapter 34: 34 - 034 Ice Rock City 1

Chapter 34 034 Ice Rock City 1

Spring was bright and beautiful, and there were no clouds in the sky.

Last night’s little farce did not have much of an impact on the army.

When the sky brightened, the army set off as per usual, continuing to chase the troll tracks to the north.

Of course, calling it a chase was not very appropriate.

That was because the speed of the Black Knights was too slow.

Colin could not help thinking that Marquis Garcia seemed to be waiting for something on purpose.

Moreover, with such a slow speed, the troll army should have already left the Northern Territory.

Perhaps this was Marquis Garcia’s plan?

Win without a fight?

Although he was full of doubts, Colin did not dare to question the highest commander of the Black Knights.

Moreover, here, even in the entire Northern Territory, no one dared to question Marquis Garcia’s military orders.

Behind the tortoise-like advancing army, Colin once again lay back on the flatbed trailer that he had just said goodbye to not long ago.

His injuries this time might have looked scary, but there was no danger at all.

Vera, on the other hand, was rather frightened. She once again found Archbishop Raven and asked him to personally cast a healing spell on Colin.

The healing spell personally cast by the archbishop was indeed very effective. In just one night, Colin already felt that his wounds were itchy and even showed signs of healing.

However, he was not too happy.

After all, what he wanted was not a healing spell, but holy water!

Unfortunately, the archbishop really ran out of holy water. Oh, well. What a waste of his wonderful performance!

It seemed that he had to think of a way to get some holy water from the church in the future.

After all, compared to the blood of a high-ranking knight, pure holy water was relatively easier to obtain even though it was still rather rare.

Moreover, the process of acquiring it was safe and without risk.

Just as Colin was lying in the trailer and starting to think about the church, Oliver rushed over and reported, “Sir Colin, Sal, he…

He…!!

“He ran away?” Colin glanced at the fat man who was covered in sweat. A ferocious look flashed across his face.

If Sal really dared to run away, then Colin would definitely charge him with desertion, making him unable to survive in the entire Northern Territory.

“No, no, he didn’t run away.”

“Is he too scared to come?” This time, Colin was somewhat surprised.

A mere mercenary actually dared to disobey the orders of a noble?

Colin was about to let Knight Raymond kill that filial son, but Oliver shook his head and said, “No, Sal has already joined the Surdo family’s team. And when I asked Knight Cynthia for him, she…”

“What did she say?” Colin’s voice was a bit cold.

Oliver shrunk his head and whispered, “She said… You’re not qualified to order the Surdo family…”

“Hehe.” Happiness flashed on Colin’s face.

This filial son was able to see the situation clearly. He managed to find another pillar of support so quickly.

As for that crazy woman from the Surdo family, it seemed that she really intended to fight with Colin to the end.

Taking a deep breath, Colin calmed himself down.

He felt that there was no need for him to be anxious.

The Surdo family that had lost their fiefdom was nothing more than a flower that had long past its prime. How long could that crazy woman protect Sal?

Sooner or later, Colin would send that filial son to reunite with his father in hell.

However, Colin seemed to have miscalculated this time—in just a few days, Ice Rock City was reclaimed by the Surdo family.

Furthermore, the entire process was unbelievably simple.

When the Black Knights slowly headed north, they realized that not only did they not encounter any troll army, the enemy even gave up on the cities that were once occupied.

Yes, they gave up completely.

The troll soldiers inside were all gone, as though they had never been there before.

As a result, the noble lords who had been captured by the Black Knights along the way suddenly became spirited.

They led their once defeated soldiers and “slashed” their way back into the empty cities, announcing that they had regained their lost territories.

This was because the Black Knights were maintaining order.

However, there was no competition. The various lords tacitly only led their armies into their original fiefdoms and did not take over other people’s cities.

There were even a few clans that had lost all their heirs, but no one dared to take over their territories.

After all, this victory was entirely built on the Black Knights’ reputation. The other lords were all trailing behind the Black Knights’ army to take advantage of them.

If they still did not know what was good for them and took things that did not belong to them, Marquis Garcia would not be polite to them.

In the eyes of the lords, those unclaimed fiefdoms naturally had to be handed over to Marquis Garcia to deal with.

Therefore, no matter how Colin gritted his teeth and cursed the luck of the Surdo family, Cynthia still managed to take back Ice Rock City without bloodshed.

The Surdo family seemed to be on the verge of revival.

Following that, the Black Knights stationed themselves on the outskirts of Ice Rock City.

Ice Rock City was the largest city in the Northeast region of the Northern Territory that was closest to the firmament ice plains. Marquis Garcia seemed to be prepared to stay here for a long time and did not have any intention of continuing his attack on the trolls from the north.

Cynthia, who had recovered Ice Rock City, was feeling very pleased with herself. She immediately invited Marquis Garcia and the other nobles into Ice Rock City, announcing that a banquet would be held three days later to celebrate this apparent victory.

Colin also received an invitation to the banquet, but he felt that the crazy woman had no intention to bury the hatchet with him.

Although it was not considered a grand banquet, Colin felt that Cynthia would definitely not let him have a good time at the banquet.

Of course, Colin would not be frightened.

He also wanted to see what kind of plans that crazy woman had arranged for him.

He hoped that he would not be disappointed.

“Oliver.” Colin put down the banquet invitation in his hand and called out.

“Sir, what are your orders?”

These days, Colin had been ordering Oliver around like a servant as a punishment for revealing Colin’s fake identity.

“I need a banquet attire. Do you know of any tailor in ice rock city who can make it?”

Colin had snuck out at the beginning. To conceal his identity, naturally, he would not bring any formal attire with him.

When Oliver heard this, he immediately put on a fawning smile. “Lord Colin, our Tulip Chamber of Commerce has a base in Ice Rock City. There are definitely skilled tailors there who can help you make a beautiful formal attire!”

Colin looked at Oliver with a faint smile and did not say anything.

Until the fat merchant felt goosebumps all over his body and sweat started to form on his forehead.

“Okay, then go to the place you said.”

“Yes!” Oliver let out a long sigh of relief.

Ever since he witnessed Colin’s ruthlessness in the battle with Cynthia that night, Oliver had been especially afraid of this “baron’s heir”.

Even though Oliver had faced other nobles with higher ranks before, no one had ever been able to bring him such great pressure.

When Colin did not agree with Oliver’s suggestion, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.

The Tulip Chamber of Commerce was Oliver’s territory, he had suggested finding a tailor there. Obviously, he wanted to take the opportunity to escape from Colin’s control.

However, Colin agreed.

This made Oliver even more uneasy.

The party was in three days, and time was of the essence. So, the two men went without delay to what Oliver called the Tulip Chamber of Commerce.
