Barton Castle.
The whole castle was filled with a solemn atmosphere. The guards, knights, and servants were especially cautious when they walked.
At this moment, two guard knights from the Gandal family had entered the hall, ready to be received by Baron Barton. The news had not yet been officially announced.
But the knights in the castle were not fools. They had guessed what had happened, so they were naturally very solemn.
The future of Patton Territory will definitely not be peaceful.
Since the knights were so solemn, the guards and servants naturally became solemn as well.
In the castle hall, on the right side of the red carpet, two guard knights from the Gandor family bent slightly, ready to be received by Baron Barton.
Soon after, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard.
Baron Barton is here. Last time in Mousse, when Gandalf died, Baron Barton crawled out of a woman's belly with lipstick residue on his face.
This time, Baron Patton climbed out of the woman's belly.
The Baron's entire life was entangled with women.
Because this time was more shocking than the last time, it came more hastily, and there were more traces of women on the Baron. But the Baron didn't care.
"Babana is dead. He was in his prime and a powerful high-ranking knight. How could he die suddenly?"
The baron asked at the top of his lungs, his eyes bloodshot and his face full of disbelief.
Babana, Gandhar.
A powerful high-ranking knight, only one step away from becoming a great knight. His strength was due to the potion, but more importantly, it was due to his own hard work.
This is not the same as Baron.
The Baron is also a high-ranking knight, but at best he is at the bottom of the high-ranking knights.
Common sense is that a monster of the same level requires at least three ordinary knights to fight it. If the baron is asked to fight a high-level monster, I am afraid it will take at least ten.
But in Babana, Gandor can fight against a high-level monster alone. This is the difference.
The Baron naturally couldn't believe that such a powerful high-ranking knight could die so suddenly. Not to mention that the Baron and Babana had a very good relationship.
In fact, this is also the Baron's advantage. As a mediocre lord, the Baron's only advantage is his very good temper. He has a very good personal relationship with his important ministers.
Although he was lustful and would naturally take advantage of other wives, he never had any entanglement with important officials regarding women.
This is the Baron's advantage.
Because of their contributions, the support of the Baron by the family's senior officials was obvious.
Because of extreme sadness, the baron's bloodshot eyes immediately shed two lines of tears.
The baron's tone and expression moved the two Gandaor family's guard knights. They knelt on one knee, and one of the knights said, "Your Excellency Baron, a curse suddenly erupted from the wound that Knight Gandaor sustained ten years ago. The wizard apprentice in our castle immediately tried to treat him, but it was a very vicious curse and the apprentice had no way to help him. We planned to send someone to Kaiyue City for help, but Knight Gandaor had already died in just ten minutes."
Ten minutes.
It was so hasty and so short, the process must have been thrilling.
The baron was sad that his important minister and friend had passed away in such a short time. He immediately remembered what happened ten years ago and was immediately terrified.
However, ten years ago, the Baron was still full of vigor and impulsive in doing things, commonly known as a greenhorn.
Ten years ago, the Baron was still a mid-level knight, Babana and Gandaor were also mid-level knights, and Old Thor was known as a junior knight.
Everyone was the heir of their own family, and they had a lot of fun together. Once, the Baron and a dozen of the heirs went on an adventure to the Endless Forest.
That time they met an evil wizard who was attacking a group of adventurers with extremely cruel methods.
The Baron, relying on his large numbers and filled with passion, led his heirs to drive away the evil wizard.
Yes, failed to keep the evil wizard.
Afterwards, the group concluded that the other party must be a mid-level wizard.
There were no casualties among the heirs in that battle, only Babana, who was the strongest at the time, was seriously injured. But after treatment, he was no longer in danger.
In ten years, Babana has become a high-level knight and is only one step away from becoming a great knight. However, the wound he suffered ten years ago could cause a strong curse to erupt, killing Babana within ten minutes.
The Baron only thought of one possibility.
"The guy who escaped ten years ago is here to take revenge."
The Baron gnashed his teeth.
The Baron was extremely frightened, because since the other party could kill Baba within ten minutes, he was most likely a high-level wizard, and it didn't seem difficult for him to kill him.
Although the Baron was sad about the deaths of Babana and Gandor, he also cared about his own safety.
The baron took a deep breath and said in a sad tone: "It is unfortunate that the Gandaor family has suffered deaths one after another. I will prepare a grand funeral for Knight Gandaor and lead the important officials in the territory to attend the funeral. All the expenses incurred by the funeral will be paid by me. But this cannot reveal even one ten-thousandth of my sadness and sympathy for the Gandaor family. Please express my condolences to Lady Gandaor on my behalf, and ask them to rest assured that in the years to come, no matter how big the problems they encounter, I will always protect them."
"Thank you, Baron." The two guard knights still knelt on one knee to express their gratitude.
Soon after, the two guard knights left the castle. The baron then did three things. The first thing was to send several groups of people to ask for help from several good nobles on the ground, asking them to send Mr. Wizard over.
Whether it can succeed remains a question mark.
Because the baron thought he was a good person in normal times, and he had a good relationship with several great nobles. But they were all politicians, and whether they could help at a critical moment was another matter.
Therefore, among the several groups of people sent by the Baron, one of them was the Baron's trump card. They were responsible for going to the Golden City and asking for help from the Libyan Earl.
As the Archon of Orange, all the great nobles of Orange united under the banner of Libya, and the corresponding Earl of Libya had the obligation to protect all the great nobles.
The Baron believed that the Libyan Count would send a high-level wizard to help, but the round trip would take at least ten days.
This is because the knights sent by the baron rode on horseback, and it would take more than ten days to reach the Golden City. Even if the other wizards used magic to speed up the journey, these ten days would not be shortened.
Although the Count of Libya is the trump card, distant water cannot quench a nearby fire.
The baron then sent people to announce the unfortunate news to all the lords and vassals in the territory.
Finally, the Baron sent out the family's Knight Chief and all the knights and guards who could be sent out to search the entire territory for any clues about the wizard.
Ten updates completed.
