While Ryan was thinking about it, he heard a rush of footsteps in the yard. Ryan felt a little strange in his heart. At this time, how could someone come and walk in such a hurry. Is there anything important? So Ryan jumped to the ground, walked a few steps to the door, and opened the door.

The owner of the footsteps is a man who is about forty years old and dressed in a servant costume. Of course Ryan recognized this person. He was one of Luke's personal attendants. It was this servant who took Luke's order to take himself to Luke's study shortly after the dinner.

The man came hurriedly and was about to yell when he saw Ryan push open his door. He already yelled impatiently when he was still in the middle of the yard: "Mr. Ryan, Lord Luke, please You go to his study immediately."

Ryan was taken aback, and asked the servant, "Didn’t you just go there? Why?"

Speaking of this, Ryan's voice immediately lowered, because he remembered the fascinating encounter he had just now. Wasn't the heroine of that encounter Luke's daughter? Ryan thought anxiously: "Isn't it because he knew what happened just now? Is it my sister"

The follower didn’t know what Ryan was thinking. He was instructed by Luke himself to take Ryan over. Seeing Ryan motionless after listening to his words, he quickly walked over to Ryan. Ryan's ear whispered: "Master Luke's instructions, please bring your companions and rush over immediately." After that, the servant added: "It's very urgent."

Ryan nodded. Since Luke said so, it must be an urgent matter, so he let go of his voice and shouted: "Ellendo! Flanner! Get up, there is an urgent matter!"

As early as when the servant hurried over, Elendor woke up from his deep sleep. As a druid, Elendor was ready to fight at any time. Now I heard Ryan so With a shout, he opened the door and walked out with Xiaobai. And Flanner's dark room also lit up. About 2 minutes later, Flanner also opened the door and walked out while wearing his clothes.

Ryan said to them: "Luke sent someone to inform us that there is an urgent matter. We will go to his study now." Allendo and Flanner nodded, and the three of them took Xiaobai. Follow the pro to Luke's study.

Except for Flanner, not long after they came here, Ryan and Allendo lived in Luke's mansion for a long time. They were very familiar with the environment here, and soon they came to Luke's study.

Luke is walking around in his study anxiously, and it seems that he hasn't left after explaining things to Ryan. When Ryan and others walked in, Luke quickly said to Ryan: "There is no time to say more. Just received news from the scout. About 170 kilometers north of the imperial capital, he encountered the vanguard of the orcs."

"Ah!" Ryan and the others were taken aback.

"The most **** thing is," Luke's face was stubborn, which was completely different from his usual peace: "The team that was sent out dropped two farms and tens of thousands of farmers, and just ran back. ."

Lane asked Luke, "How many orcs are there? Where is our team?"

Luke realized that he was a little gaffe. He adjusted his mind and returned to his usual appearance. Then he replied, "500 cavalry, 2500 infantry, and 1,000 carriages. They just left it. Everything ran away, and according to the scout's intelligence, those orcs were definitely the vanguard, with no more than 500 people."

"Huh, the leader of the team must be killed, otherwise our army will collapse before fighting. I made it very clear when I issued the order. When encountering enemy forces, I will organize residents to resist on the spot and report quickly. So that we can send reinforcements, but they turned out to be" Luke said fiercely.

Ryan shook his head slightly, and was very dissatisfied with the captain who escaped. Based on his experience in fighting the orcs, if the captain was willing to immediately organize the young and middle-aged in the farm like himself, and use the local house to resist. , It may not be impossible to defeat the orcs from afar. As long as he can block a block, Luke will definitely organize more troops to support when he receives the news. In any case, he must transport people away. As for the houses And the materials can be burned directly before leaving.

"Please give the order!" Ryan resolutely said: "I can go to support immediately!"

Luke shook his head and said, "No, it's too late. 170 kilometers, even if it's a fast horse, it will take a whole day, you rush over now, maybe the two farms have been blood washed. , Even if not, will you still have combat effectiveness if you run with all your might?"

"That"

"As I told you just now, go and form a team immediately." Luke said his thoughts: "Ryan, um, you should call you Captain Ryan. You organized this in the name of a mercenary group. And then try to protect the safety of Catherine, Farath and their sisters as much as possible."

"Why use the name of the mercenary group?" Ryan asked puzzledly.

"The time is urgent, so I won't explain it to you." Luke waved his hand and said to the three of Ryan: "Now, in the name of the imperial chancellor of the treasury, I hire Ryan's mercenary group to protect Her Majesty and Queen of the Empire. Her entourage, please head Ryan must go all out. The corresponding remuneration, haha, even if it’s Falasi’s dowry."

Ryan's face flushed at the last sentence. He wanted to say something, but because of Luke's last sentence, he didn't know how to say it. Flanner's eyes flashed a bright light. He heard something in Luke's words, and he stepped forward and patted Ryan's shoulder lightly, indicating that he should handle it, and then said to Luke, "Respect. Lord Luke, as the logistic manager of the Lane mercenary group, I will take this task on behalf of the entire mercenary group, and I am willing to help you."

Luke took a deep look at Flanner, who also looked at him with a clear look. Luke smiled slightly and said to the people in the room: "Now, everything is up to you. I must rush to the barracks right away, and then rush to the north wall with Orlando to set up the defense line. Catherine and the others are still living with me for the time being. After you finish the team, immediately take over their security protection.” Saying this, Luke took out a token from his body and handed it to Ryan, “This is my token, and now the empire is in a wartime state. You can travel through the imperial capital with this token, and at the same time, once the army or personnel you fancy, you can absorb them into the Lane mercenary group on the spot. Those who do not follow the order will be put to death on the spot!"

Ryan hesitated to take Luke’s order. Luke’s words tonight gave Ryan a bad feeling. Ryan vaguely felt that Luke’s words had other intentions, but he Can't understand for a while. Flanner patted Ryan on the shoulder and motioned for him to set off quickly. Ryan turned and glanced at Flanner, who winked at him.

Ryan and Flanner have been together for a long time, and a small action between each other can convey information, just like he and Allendo's coordinated battle. According to Flanner's look, Ryan knew that Flanner had known Luke's intentions, and now that the time was urgent, it was impossible to delay. So Ryan collected the token, and after greeted him, he took Elendo and Flanner and strode out.

The three quickly left Luke's mansion and walked down the street. Flanner asked Ryan, "Where shall we go first?" Ryan said as he walked: "Go and find Colin and the others first, and see how many of our comrades fighting together in Thor's Fortress are willing to join the mercenary group, and then Consider the next step."

"Okay!" Allendor and Flanner, who walked behind Ryan, replied together.

"That's right, Flanner." Ryan strode forward, and at the same time asked Flanner in a low voice, "What Luke said just now seems to have a meaning, do you know?"

Flanner nodded and said, "Of course I know that Luke was actually arranging a retreat."

"Retreat?" Ryan stopped when he heard the words. He turned to face Flanner and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Flanner whispered: "Head, the situation is critical now, and time is very tight. In any case, you should not be emotional."

Ryan stomped his feet and said, "What the **** are you talking about? Don't hide it!"

Franner explained: "I don’t know how Luke told you before, but he hired a mercenary group to let you protect Catherine and Sister Farath, and he planned for the worst. !"

"Could it be said"

"Whether it is Luke or Orlando, their current status absolutely does not allow them to leave the millions of inhabitants of the imperial capital. If they can defeat the orcs, of course it is best, but if it happens"

"If the orcs capture the imperial capital, we will only be hired as a mercenary group, and the task received is to protect the people, and there is no need to coexist and die with this city. So we can abandon the imperial capital and leave here !" Ryan had already understood what Flanner meant, and he added: "And Catherine, Faras and others, can also leave under our protection, right?"

Flanner said nothing, apparently acquiescing to what Ryan said.

Ryan stared at Flanner for 5 minutes, and suddenly let out a long sigh: "No, that kind of situation will never happen."

Allendo suddenly interrupted and said, "So we are working hard, Ryan."

Ryan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he suddenly opened up. He said in confident language: "Yes, as long as we haven't given up our efforts, hope will not be annihilated!"

Just as Ryan said these loud words, the east side of Fernando City, the direction of the sea, the intersection of the sky and the earth, faintly revealed a hint of white, which is a sign that the sun is about to rise. When the sun rises high, the dark sleepless night will pass, and a new day will come.
