Chapter 76 Finalization(1/2)
Baroness Drod said, raising her hands high and facing forward, indicating that she had no weapons.
"Mother--" Yadunis screamed in anger.
However, when he saw the man in the cloak gradually walking in, he looked at the eight guard bodies that were lying on the back of the man in the cloak, Yadonis, also raised his hand over his head and spread his palms.
Looking at the surrender of the mother and son, Ander silently retracted his sword under his cloak and leaned against the wall of the castle to sleep.
From beginning to end, he never said a word.
In Ender's plan, Night Demon should be an elusive, cold character who only acts and does not speak.
No one knows omniscient and omnipotent—even God can’t do it.
Saying more and more wrong, Ende is not a real assassin, so it would be fine if he forced to play for a while, but it would take a long time to play. Ende thought about it with his toes and knew that there would inevitably be flaws.
Assassin in this world is a complete profession that relies on shadow energy. Ender himself can't even figure out what shadow energy is. He still wants to play a high-level assassin? That's just thinking too much.
Therefore, maintaining a cold personality like this may also be able to pretend to be a while. If you chat with others, you will have to reveal it in less than a long time.
————————————
Telligan sighed secretly in his heart.
Ye Mo was willing to take the initiative, which was of course a good thing for him.
But Ye Demon is so enthusiastic that he must have done a great job in Ende, so big that he not only wants to treat Ende, but also to him, Uncle Ende, who is not related to blood, will take the initiative to help take care of him.
The so-called "no reward without merit" is another saying, "If you have nothing to do, you will be either a traitor or a thief." This kind of good thing that fell from the sky made Trigan very worried about Ender.
The task assigned by Baron Leicester to Telligan was to hold down the Droods rather than to capture the Droods. Therefore, even if Leilera's men gathered, Telligan had not much force, and as for the siege equipment, he was not prepared at all.
Therefore, Tligan did not have any 100% confidence in capturing the Castle of Drood - his chance was to anger Yadonis Derood, who completely defeated him when he couldn't help but lead his troops to fight, and even took the only heir of the Drood family to capture the Castle of Drood.
As for the siege of the city, it was a battle method of a large army holding the control of human lives. With only the two hundred people under his command, he could not afford to splash even if he piled up.
However, the Night Demon took the initiative and changed everything.
The seven-meter-high castle wall is meaningless to assassins of the level of Night Demon. He used his hands and feet, and his five fingers were pressed into the wall without even requiring any auxiliary facilities. He climbed up in less than two seconds. The soldiers on the castle were attracted by the leaders who insulted the lord, and no one was found climbing up from the other side.
Then, the Night Demon began to clean the wall.
That is an assassination method that can be called ‘art’.
In order to command the battle, Tlighen deliberately parked the carriage on a high rock and stood on the roof of the carriage so that he could have a wide view from a high place.
However, because of the high terrain here, Tligan can see how the Night Demon cleared the soldiers on the city wall.
Although most soldiers are focused on the direction of leading the people to scold, some soldiers are not like this.
However, the Night Demon just swayed on the city wall, sometimes even walking towards the soldiers, but no soldier made the appropriate defense, as if he had not seen anyone coming.
In Telligan's eyes, the Night Demon is like a ghost who clearly exists but is ignored.
Every time he passed by a soldier, he would reach out and pinch the soldier, sometimes it was the neck, sometimes the back of his head, and sometimes because of angle problems, Telligan could not see him take action.
On the city wall, soldiers fell silently and silently, while the other soldiers turned a blind eye.
This strange scene made Telligan stand all over his body - if it were the Night Demon who was invisible and attacking these soldiers, Telligan would not be so terrifying, but in broad daylight, the soldiers openly killed someone like Night Demon but ignored them. This situation was really weird.
After only a while, the Night Demon easily swept away a section of soldiers on the guard wall, then went down the guard wall to open the city gate - until then, the sound of shouting for killing came from the castle.
But the situation was hopeless, and the Night Demon defended the city gate with one sword, until Corey led his men into the castle. By this time, the Drood Castle had no defense ability at all.
When Tligan entered the castle and found the Night Demon, he was leaning against the city wall, his face hidden in the shadow of the cloak, making Tligan unable to see clearly.
Not far from the Night Demon, Yadonis DeRod and Baroness DeRod stood aside. Although they tried hard to maintain the noble demeanor, the frustration and loss were still visible to their faces.

Locoway, Locoway Castle.
"Oh, Vinson successfully killed Baron Rocoway, well, the Night Demon not only killed Baron Drood, but also took the initiative to help Tilligan take down the Castle of Drood?"
Sitting in the council hall of the Castle of Locoway, Baron Surrey Leicester asked in surprise with the news conveyed by the Black Snake.
"Yes, Lord Baron, Brooke witnessed it with his own eyes that the Night Demon took the initiative to help Telligan seize the Drood Castle. It was not Telligan's request." A black snake replied.
There is another set of contact information between the Black Snakes, which can quickly transmit information under certain circumstances. Under the order of Baron Leicester, information related to Night Demon has a very high priority.
"Well-I understand, you go down. Thank you for your hard work, you can take a break first and set off tomorrow."
Surrey Lester tapped the table with his finger, signaling that the black snake could leave the hall, but he didn't mention the bounty.
The Black Snake is the confidant in the center of the Leicester family, and his relationship with the Leicester family is almost like the adopted son.
If every black snake can survive to retire, it will at least be arranged to be a squire and will not worry about treatment at all.
"As for orders, Lord Baron." The black snake retreated out of the door.
Because Ams Locoway had taken away all the main forces in the territory, and no one expected that Baron Leicester would not go back to rescue the territory, but suddenly led a large army to appear under the castle of Locoway and launched a sudden attack through the night.
Caught off guard, although the soldiers in the castle fought bravely, they were still beaten by the well-prepared Baron Leicester.
But Baron Leicester did not fail to pay the price. Trelli died in battle with the Knights and two Level 6 warriors above the level 6, and another Knight was seriously injured.
But that's all the losses of Leicester.
This time, in order to surprise, Baron Leicester did not even send soldiers to attack the city first, but asked all the soldiers under him to climb first, occupying a piece of land on the castle wall, relying on these elite soldiers to block both sides, and a wall was empty so that subsequent soldiers could climb up.
This siege made the high-ranking soldiers under Baron Leicester's army seriously injured, but the casualties of other regular soldiers were not very serious. However, Ams Locoway's son and daughter all escaped through secret passages under the cover of the dead soldiers.
This is very embarrassing.
If there is no current baron, or the direct heir of the current baron after his death, and personally sign and confirm in front of the gods' representative priest, the territory war will not end.
According to the procedure, the Baron Leicester can only legally own the Locove territory if the three-month period expires and the other party still cannot retake the castle.
"Come here, call on soldiers who can still act to come here for a meeting." Baron Leicester shook the bell at his hand, and his servants went to inform all the backbone of the army.
"This is the situation now. What suggestions do you have?" Baron Leicester briefly introduced the current situation and sought everyone's opinions.
"Sir, since Baron Rocoway is dead, the most important thing for us is to capture his heir Gerald Rocoway, force him to sign the end of the territory war, and admit that the territory war has failed."
Kandel stood up and shouted, with bandages wrapped around his right arm, but he was energetic at this moment and seemed to be able to fight again at any time.
Kandel is a level 8 warrior, but has not won the title of Knight.
This time, the Baron was planning and annexed three baron leaders in one fell swoop, which was enough to be promoted to viscount. Their followers also had a promising future, and it was almost certain that a knight had a title.
"Well, what about the other people's opinions?"
"Master Baron, I think Tligan should immediately sign a document of ending the territory war with Baron Drood on your behalf, and formally incorporate the territory of Drood into your command," Khruv stood up and said.
"No, this is impossible. Tligan is not even a knight. How can he represent the Baron?" Someone slapped the table and objected.
Khruf explained his opinion: "Gerald and Belle have escaped. If they do not know the news of Baron Locoway's death, they will definitely go to Leicester to meet him. Then we can chase him along the way; if they have already received the news of Baron Locoway's death, the worst result is that they will directly escape to Grae."
"At that time, Marquis Ottore may use this as an excuse to prevent you from unifying the four northern leaders."
Speaking of this, Khruv bowed slightly to the surroundings and sat down.
He did not say all the words, but anyone who could sit here and had a brain knew that from the map, among the four northern lords, the Leicester and the Marquis of Ottore bordered, and there was a not-so-large forest between the Drood and the Marquis of Ottore, and there was also a road to pass.
Only the Locovey tribe is in the northernmost direction and has nothing to do with the Baron Ottore.
News came from the Wilter leader that Baron Wilter's heir had been arrested and signed a document to end the territory war. If the fruit of victory in the Drood's side could be completely confirmed, the road between the two sides could be blocked. Even if Marquis Clarence Ottore wanted to interfere, he would not be able to directly interfere with the ownership of the Rocovey.
"Sir Baron, I think Khruv's words make sense. Although Gerald fled to Grae to meet Marquis Ottore and invited reinforcements, we must not be careful."
After a moment of silence in the room, someone began to express his opinions to Khruv's suggestion.
"Super discussion." Some people agreed.
“Additional.”
“Additional.”
Someone started, and everyone agreed.
If you want to represent a baron, you must at least be a lord or a knight, and have the title of nobleman.
However, it is definitely more than enough to conquer the achievements of the Drood leader alone, and this is just a matter of time a little earlier.
"Then it is decided, Tosda, Raf, you two lead a hundred soldiers to pursue Gerald and Belle along the road; Tid, you lead five soldiers, and hand over my authorization to Telligan overnight, and give him a knight in advance, and order him to sign the end of the territory war on behalf of me and Baron Drood's heir—a formal fiefdom and ceremony before it."
——————————————
In the main living room of Drood Castle.
Terligan, Corey and Lerira stood side by side, put the documents related to the territory war on the table, and under the witness of the priest of the noble god, Baroness Drod and Yadonis signed their names.
From now on, this territory will no longer be named Drood.
"Baoness of the Baroness, Mr. Yadonis, I am sorry for what happened a few days ago, but this is the war - to express my apology, you can take away your favorite carriage and all your personal belongings. In addition, I will expel those untouchables from this territory."
Telligan looked at the crying Baroness of Drood and said apologetically.
Logically speaking, after the castle was defeated, all the items in the castle were the victor's spoils, but the leaders of the people scolded them a few days ago. Telligan must make some statement in front of the noble god priest who witnessed the signing of documents between the two sides.
Otherwise, the priest might have made small reports like the noble god, which is extremely unfavorable to Telligan, who had just been named a knight.
Baroness Drood did not answer Telligan's apology directly. Her eyes were red and she covered her mouth with a handkerchief. After nodding slightly, she whimpered quietly while taking broken steps and quickly left the sad place.
On the way she passed by, you could see traces of tears falling.
