Chapter 108 Stealing a Home
……

The dusk was like thick ink, slowly seeping through Thorn Ridge.

In the wilderness of Baimu City, a fire was lit in the camp where the Baiyin City army was stationed, and even several bonfires several meters high were lit.

In the twilight, it is so dazzling.

Anyone who sees these bonfires from afar would think that someone is holding a ceremony there, and would associate them with cheers and celebrations.

If they get closer, they will be surprised.

Because there was no one in front of the campfire.

Not only in front of the campfire, there were few people in the entire brightly lit tent.

On the other hand, a few hundred meters to the right of the tent, thousands of soldiers were ready to go, facing the direction of Baimu City.

"Teacher, what are they doing?"

At this time, in the rock pile more than a hundred meters behind the Silver City army tent, Tallulah looked at the empty camp and asked in confusion.

Beside him, Ron leaned against the cool rock, stroking his chin, lost in thought.

In the afternoon, the two of them took a ride on the caravan and arrived at the territory next to Thorn Ridge.

The merchants who escaped from Thorn Ridge through the neighboring territory learned that Silver City had attacked Whitewood City in the morning but was repelled by Whitewood City.

And the news that Baimu City received a group of guards from Baifeng City.

When Ron heard this, he knew that the people from Silver City were up to something.

With the strength of the Silver City army, they could easily capture White Wood City in one go, but they chose to launch a tentative attack that was of little use and a waste of time.

You know, what the Duke's second son lacks most now is time. The two great Dukes have put pressure on him countless times.

The Silver City army dared to do this, they definitely had a plan to kill the White Wood City in one blow.

I think it is the group of guards that Baimu City received this morning.

In order not to reveal the news that he had returned to Thorn Ridge, Ron did not choose to return to Whitewood City immediately after entering Thorn Ridge.

Although there is still time to deal with those traitors if we go back now, it is easier to get in than to get out. Dealing with those traitors will not cause much damage to the Silver City army.

Once trapped in the city, there is no room for maneuver.

So, Ron chose to lurk near the Silver City army camp to find out the enemy situation.

At this moment, seeing the empty camp, he quickly understood that the Silver City army wanted to confuse the White Wood City with the bright bonfire, and then take over the White Wood City while the White Wood City's vigilance was lowered.

If nothing unexpected happens, the success rate of this trip is very high.

Because when it comes to sneak attacks, under normal circumstances, the best time to attack is late at night and before dawn.

If it is not a sneak attack, then attacking during the day would be more appropriate.

Basically no one would launch an attack at this time of night.

Therefore, Shiraki City will definitely be affected.

Even if they are alert during this period of time, they will not be as alert as at other times.

This is a great idea!

"With a commander who can use his brains, it's no wonder that the rebellion in Thorn Ridge was put down so quickly."

Ron felt a certain admiration for the commander whom he had never met before.

It takes real courage to completely empty one's own camp.

Sorry about that.

I'm going to steal home.

"Don't move here, I'll go in and take a look."

Ron said to Tallulah.

Then use "Stealth" to sneak towards the enemy camp.

After entering the camp, he did not cause any damage immediately. Instead, he took a look around to confirm the number of guards in the camp and where the food and grass were stored.

There are only a hundred or so people left in the camp, and there are no powerful characters.

And there is enough food and fodder to last 5,000 people for a day.

well.

Ron transformed into a man-eating ghost in the dark and silently took care of all the guards and sentries in the camp.

Then he turned back and took Tallulah.

Destruction has to be done by magic.

Ron led Talulah to the food storage tent. "It's all burned."

"I will handle it."

Talulah patted her chest, pulled out four mithril rods, and with the blessing of Ron's life energy, summoned the Flame Leopard Elemental Puppet.

boom……

The flame leopards dispersed and sprayed flames, turning the entire camp into a sea of ​​fire in less than a few seconds.

And now on the other side.

The army of Silver City has already set out for White Wood City and is nearly three miles away from the camp. They are only focused on White Wood City ahead and are completely unaware of what is happening in the camp behind them.

……

In Baimu City.

On the city wall, Singer's gaze was fixed on the fire in the distant Silver City camp.

"Lord Singh, you can go and rest. We are here to watch over you. There will be no problem."

The sentry beside him said to him.

Singh had been standing on the city wall for a day.

Upon hearing this, Singh withdrew his gaze and rubbed his swollen and painful eyes.

He looked back in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

The enemy should not attack at this time... Thinking this in his heart, Singh turned and walked down the city wall and headed towards the city lord's mansion.

Just as he left, more than ten dark shadows huddled in the shadows of the residential buildings under the city wall climbed up the city wall.

They are shaped like snakes, black and slippery, like projected shadows, and they make no sound when they crawl.

Their target is clear: the sentinels and guards above the city gate.

On the watchtower, the sentinels strictly abided by their duties and monitored the movements of the Silver City camp in the distance.

Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain at the back of his neck. He reached out and touched something slippery.

Confused, he was about to take it to his eyes for a check, but his body became stiff. The next second, his consciousness sank into the mud. Before he completely lost consciousness, he only felt that something was invading his body.

After a moment, the sentry's eyes became empty.

The guards on his left and right sides gradually became lifeless, just like him.

They did not make any unusual movements and remained at their posts.

When they saw dense crowds of people appearing on the plain in the distance, they all walked down the city wall and opened the city gate.

At this time, in the city lord's mansion on the other side.

A few minutes ago, Amon, the leader of the White Wind City guards, came to the City Lord's Mansion, saying that he had something important to say.

Amon told Reggie that he had found a suspicious place in Baimu City and asked Reggie to go and take a look.

Reggie thought about it and was about to agree.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Raphael, who was beside Reggie, stepped forward to open the door, and a guard covered in blood rushed in.

"Miss Reggie, Lord Raphael, those people from White Wind City..."

Before the guard could finish his words, a sharp blade pierced his chest.

"who?"

Raphael immediately drew his sword, guarding the door and trying to retreat back to Reggie.

But Eamon was one step faster than him, holding Reggie hostage with a dagger in his hand.

"Eamon, how dare you..."

Seeing this scene, Raphael was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Eamon had betrayed him.

No.

It should be said that I don’t want to pretend anymore.

These people are spies!

"Haha, now that we've been discovered, there's nothing more to say." Eamon laughed.

"Put down your weapon!" He put the knife closer to Reggie's neck and looked at Raphael coldly.

"Don't worry about me. Go to the city gate quickly and don't let the Silver City army in."
