“Yes.”
“I hope…Everything will go smoothly, right? Sigh…”
Looking at the refugees who had started to pack their luggage and were finally leaving the Fire Code City, Thorin felt a sense of unease.
“What did you say? They were leaving just like that? What kind of adventurers and escorts were not hired?”
In Count Du Lin’s mansion, after listening to the report from his subordinates, the Count’s face didn’t look too good.
‘ Otherwise, with how cautious that old thing Sorin is, and the fact that he brought several carts with him, it’s said that the wood was cut by the foreigners in advance. Sorin would have forced Vivian to hire escorts.
The servant who looked like a butler braced himself and said.
The earl opposite him tapped his fingers on the armrest of his chair, and a vicious look appeared on his face.
He had wanted to take the opportunity to extort a sum of money. He had already contacted several adventurer teams in the Adventurer’s Guild. When the time came, everyone would raise the price and rip off the little girl. However, he did not expect Vivian to ignore it. In that case…
Then don’t blame him for being inhumane.
“Are the people we planted among the refugees still there?”
“Yes, Master.”
“Send them a message. Tell them to wait until they are halfway through the migration. If there are no monster attacks, they can use that medicine.
After Count Du Lin said that, the steward paused for a few seconds.
“Master, that medicine…Originally, I wanted to wait for them to settle down, gain a firm foothold, and rebuild before using it. I’m afraid that it’s too early to use it now.”
“It’s fine if I use that potion that can attract monsters outside the town. The monsters will have scruples, but if I use it in the wild… I’m afraid that the number of demons attracted is not a small number. It’s even more likely that it can even attract elite high-level demons…”
In the eyes of the butler and Count Dulin, the lives of the refugees were also important. They were tools for them to make money. If they suffered heavy casualties, the nobles would not want to see it.
However…
“Hmph, what are you afraid of? Isn’t that little girl very arrogant? If he didn’t give her a taste of the pain, did she really think that she was capable?”
“Just do as I say. Moreover, I changed my mind. Not only do I have to let them sprinkle the medicine along the way, but I also have to double the dosage! Count Du Lin’s eyes were cold.
He would like to see how those foreigners, who were not even as strong as the treasure thieves, and the pitiful soldiers left behind by Sorin, would deal with the ferocious tide of monsters in the wild!
Or could it be that the little girl, Vivian, could protect everyone on her own?
What a joke!
Because this was completely different from the battle outside the Fire Code City.
At that time, the refugees could rely on Fire Code City and only face the enemy on one side. It could be considered a desperate encounter with no way out. However, this time, it was in the wild, and the demons came from all directions. What was even more terrifying was that they would not be able to distinguish between day and night.
If one had to compare, it was like one was defending, and the other was ambushing.
The journey from Fire Code City to the ruins of Red Flame Town was over a hundred miles long. Even if they didn’t rest for the entire journey, it would still take more than a day and a half.
Vivian, you can repel the first wave of monster attacks, but what about the second and third? Under the strong stimulation of the potion, the monsters would not give up such a big piece of ” fat meat ‘
If there was one instance where they didn’t protect them properly and let the monsters rush into the refugees, then with the quality of the refugees, they would probably be scared out of their wits and start to run around randomly without even using the monsters.
The old adventurers all knew that only a small number of people would die
under the claws of the monsters when they were attacked. Most people would run around in fear and then disappear in the wild.
So, how many people would die on this path?
And what kind of expression would the self-proclaimed kind-hearted little girl show when she realized that she was powerless in the face of the cruel reality?
At the thought of this…
Count Du Lin’s worried expression turned into a sneer..
