Chapter 760 (1/2)

Left the cell, silent Lauren stood by the campfire, silent for a long time.

”Duke?”

The count of fury Castle carefully came forward and lowered his voice so as not to beat him thinking.

”Huh? Oh... Eckert.” in a trance, Loren looked up at him and smiled reluctantly. ”Let the army alchemist send some medicine to the dwarf - meet all his requirements as much as possible until he recovers.”

”Yes.” Ike nodded and was turning to go. Suddenly he stopped as if he remembered something. He hesitated for a moment, sighed gently, and chose to speak:

”Are you going to accept his terms?”

Loren was stunned, then glanced at the doubting Eckert and gently raised the corner of his mouth: ”do you suspect he's lying to me?”

Despite hesitation and struggle, Boris mihalo ”confessed”.

Not only help Loren find the tunnel leading to the interior of the fortress, but also promise to cooperate with the siege army, open the city gate at the right time and attack silver helmet mountain without blood.

The only requirement is that Loren must go with him.

”That's not true - liars are common, lying dwarves? Probably not yet born.” Eckert shook his head:

”More importantly, he has no reason to cheat you.”

The dark haired wizard nodded in agreement.

For Loren, there is no essential difference between humans, elves, dwarves and centaurs. He doesn't believe that there is any ”non lying” race in the world.

Those who don't know how to lie must be dishonest. This kind of guy often deceives himself.

Loren believes in only two things, motivation and himself.

In love and reason, he had no need to take advantage of himself - according to the information sent by Joad Jr., the dwarf civil war should not be acting; Neither the supreme King nor the rebels need to find a new enemy for themselves.

Of course, people are unpredictable, and some people will always make irrational actions; If this is the case, Loren does not object to another ”silver helmet mountain escape” to help these upright dwarfs ”have a long snack” like the emperor capital.

Finally, the most important message for Loren - the hiding place of fascism.

The Bishop's whereabouts were never simple.

In eboden, to destroy the nine pointed star Grail;

In the Dragon King City, it is to find the second Holy Grail;

In red blood castle, it is to liberate and control Brunhild and completely destroy Bain... There should be no exception this time.

The only question may be what he is looking for in silver helmet mountain and what attracts him.

Boris mihalo mentioned that the silver helmet mountain is the first place in the world to discover the secret silver mine... Is it related to this?

”You've made up your mind, Duke?” although it was a rhetorical question, Eckert's tone was very sure: ”or... There's a plan?”

”Well,” Lauren glanced at him and turned sideways, ”do you still disagree?”

”I just don't agree with you taking risks alone.” Eckert looked up at him without any concealment. ”After three generations of vacancy, you are the first Duke of Byrne and the most special one!”

”You're too young, you don't have enough prestige, and you don't have a suitable successor - outside the Imperial Guard and constraints, inside the round table parliament, the young generation's covet, and your status and power are fragile and unimaginable.”

”Under such circumstances, a disastrous defeat is enough to defeat you, not to mention being in danger and risking your life to do such a thing!”

What Eckert said was sincere and honest: ”I am loyal to you because I am loyal to Byrne. I don't want to see her fall apart again, or be in turmoil, manipulated and even annexed by outsiders.”

”After three generations, you are the first Duke after our reunification. I sincerely hope you are not the last and don't have to see such a miserable scene.”

”That's why I'm going.” Loren smiled. ”It's the responsibility of the Duke of Byrne to protect Boye; it's something even the knight king has never done to capture the dwarf fortress.”

”But if you die, we are finished, Byrne is finished, and everything will come to naught.”

”Then I'll fight for it and try to come back alive.” Lauren smiled. ”I actually care about my life... At least so far.”
