When Pierre woke up again, he found himself hanging up like a pig.
It was just that he seemed unable to feel the pain in his lower body, as if his body had already accepted this fact.
That guy called Battman had really struck too hard, actually crushing both of his balls!
Now he had to work hard to escape from here and tell His Majesty the King about everything.
Pierre wanted to struggle hard to break free from the ropes on his hands, but he heard the sound of chopping bones coming from the next room.
The cleaver fell on the cutting board one after another, and Battman and Sherisa’s voices also rang out.
“So you’re saying this village was occupied by cultists long ago? The people who came here before are all dead.”
“Whether it’s people from the Noel Family or passing travelers, they’ve all been captured by these cultist villagers and taken for sacrifice.”
Hearing this, the panic in Pierre’s heart grew even stronger.
So that means the people who were originally supposed to meet them in this village are already dead!
Now there’s no one else to make contact!
What about the soldiers? Where did the remaining soldiers go?
With so many of them, they couldn’t possibly be unable to deal with these villagers, right?
“Speaking of which, I haven’t heard the soldiers’ voices for a long time.”
“Obviously, there’s something wrong with the food these villagers prepared. Now they’re all asleep.”
My God!
Please come quickly and save this child!
This group of stupid pigs, how could they casually accept food from the villagers? They didn’t even scout out the situation in the village properly before daring to eat other people’s food?
Pierre roared inwardly.
Only according to his pig brain, if he hadn’t been knocked unconscious by Henry, he probably would have been sleeping in the dining hall like a dead pig.
“Crack!”
The room door was pushed open.
Henry walked in holding a stick.
His face wore a bright smile, his expression extremely elegant.
“Good evening, Mister Pierre. Now it’s time for us to talk about what comes next. I hope you can cooperate with me.”
“Impossible! I’d rather die than surrender!”
“What?” A pig’s head poked out from outside the door.
Frightening Pierre into screaming.
It was just that very quickly, he saw clearly the other person’s figure, exactly the same as Sherisa’s.
“The innkeeper has a rich collection, with pig heads, sheep heads, snake heads, and even pantyhose heads.”
“The innkeeper also has collecting hobbies? I think that pantyhose head is pretty good, leave it for me when the time comes.” Henry felt that making such a small request wasn’t excessive.
Everyone needs props to disguise themselves, Henry was no exception!
“Impossible, I already destroyed it.”
“What a waste…”
Listening to the two people’s nonsensical conversation, Pierre felt somewhat panicked inwardly.
These two people were like mental patients, talking about things completely unrelated to the current situation.
Don’t they know they’re in danger right now?
People could die at any moment!
“I say, you two, can’t you pay attention to the current situation? This group of villagers are all thugs, they’ll kill all of us here!”
Pierre felt somewhat exhausted, talking to mental patients was too taxing.
“Hmm? We can leave whenever we want, we’re just staying here out of curiosity.”
After saying this, Henry summoned a Flying Sword to his feet, then calmly stepped on the sword and flew up!
This scene simply stunned both Pierre and Sherisa.
Having spent so much time with Henry, she still didn’t know Henry could actually step on a sword and fly!
You have to know that there aren’t many people who can master flight magic, most still have to rely on brooms to activate it.
“Big brother! Take me away, I don’t want to stay here anymore!”
Pierre suddenly burst into tears, no longer having his previous toughness.
He could see that the other person was really just playing with him.
What kind of people did the Noel Family hire? He’d never heard of such a character!
“That depends on your sincerity, so can you tell me now what His Majesty the King sent you to do exactly?”
“He, he wanted the Noel Family to take the blame. Originally when these supplies were transported here, someone would swap the supplies midway, and when they were delivered to Caucasus Town, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the garrison soldiers. That way, they could pin the charges of delaying wartime and deceiving the King on the Noel Family.”
His Majesty the King thought about many things, and at the same time thought too much.
As the Noel Family, how could they possibly put all their eggs in one basket?
Sherisa took off the pig head mask, feeling this mask was somewhat unlucky and should be put on Pierre instead.
“Sorry, from the time we set out, other supply vehicles from other regions have already departed. So even if the ones here don’t arrive, supplies from other regions will still reach Caucasus Town.”
Pierre opened his mouth wide, unable to say a single word.
He hadn’t expected that His Majesty the King’s plan had already failed from the very beginning.
“There should be more, right?”
Henry stared directly at Pierre, and Pierre instinctively lowered his head, not daring to meet his gaze.
However, Henry wasn’t angry either, instead laughing lightly.
“Mister Pierre, you heard our voices from next door just now, right? Otherwise how would you know the villagers outside are cultists? After all, your forehead has already been hit by my sword hilt several times, the sound was very loud, you have a good head.”
“It… it was you?! So you were the one who kept knocking me unconscious!”
“Then guess who I am?”
“Aren’t you someone hired by the Noel Family? Aren’t you called Battman?”
“A person can’t have just one identity. Actually, I have an even more resounding name.”
Henry took off the disguise on his face, revealing his true appearance.
And when Pierre saw Henry’s appearance clearly, his expression also showed some shock.
“You… aren’t you Henry from the Rumelter Family? That abandoned son who’s said to have no magical power!”
“Very good, Mister Pierre. It seems you know me very well, so I’ll cut to the chase. In His Majesty the King’s plan, besides you, no one can leave here alive?”
Henry’s words made the expression on Pierre’s face disappear instantly.
He silently swallowed his saliva, cold sweat beginning to flow from his forehead.
Sherisa also looked at Henry in surprise.
She didn’t understand how Henry had reached this conclusion.
“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Sherisa, go to the next room and get the bone-chopping cleaver for me.”
“Eh… okay, I’ll go right now.”
Sherisa hopped out of the room on one foot.
And after hearing Henry’s words, Pierre’s face immediately changed.
“Young Master Henry, you can’t treat me like this. I’m His Majesty the King’s man, doing this will bring the charge of betrayal on the Rumelter Family!”
“Isn’t that perfect? I also want the Rumelters to die.”
No one could speak words that reached Henry’s heart like this.
It seemed Pierre really was his kindred spirit!
Seeing that Henry seemed to be serious, Pierre finally really panicked!
“I’ll talk, I’ll tell you everything! His Majesty the King told me to leave the town when it gets dark. As for the remaining people, there’s no need to care about their lives!”
“Oh my, then look, is it dark now?”
Pierre followed Henry’s words and looked toward the window.
That round of blood-red moon hung high in the sky, with no trace of darkness visible at all.
