Chapter 440 Departure

When it was time to set off, Nancy led a small team to the front of Cliff City, and Olivia also led some people, including Richard.

"Let's go." Nancy greeted from a distance, then turned the horse's head, waiting for Olivia to catch up and walk side by side with her.

"Let's go see how the trebuchet is doing first," Olivia said to Nancy.

"Okay!" Nancy had no objection.

The territory of the Hansmo family is not that far away from Cliff City, otherwise it would not have been chosen as the first target. It only took less than two hours to ride on horseback, and we soon saw the territory of the Hansmo family.

The city gate, but they did not enter the city, but went to the lake outside the city.

This lake also belongs to the Hansmo family. Although no one is guarding it, the Hansmo family has said that anyone close to the lake will be regarded as an enemy and will be attacked indiscriminately. Ordinary civilians will not dare to approach easily.

Next to the lake is a dense forest. This dense forest does not belong to the Hansmo family. Even if someone enters the Hansmo family, they cannot control it. In other words, as long as they do not set foot on the lake, the Hansmo family will not drive them away.

Sent by Olivia, the people from the manor are in this dense forest.

Following the marks, they found the person.

Researchers in the manor are cutting down trees and making trebuchets.

"We may have to take action tonight." After all, this is a lightning action. The sooner, the better. Olivia looked at the dim light on the horizon and asked, "Can we make it in time?"

"Miss Nancy and Miss Olivia are here, it's really a glorious sight," Earl Hansmore greeted him with a smile on his face, "Please go inside."

"Okay." Blake made a please gesture.

The trebuchet is a product that has been fully researched. When he is not in the research state, Blake actually looks like a normal person, not as slovenly as when he is obsessed with research.

Olivia gave in to Nancy. After all, Nancy was superior to her in terms of status.

Nancy strode directly to Hansmo's house without seeing anyone else.

"I see that the wood of these trees is not very good. How many times can they support throwing?" Olivia asked.

Her anti-customer attitude made people really angry.

"The parts are actually already done," Blake said. "Thankfully you assigned me some people. It's convenient to have magicians. They can chop down trees with much less effort than us."

Count Hansmore knew very well that as long as his words were not made clear, Olivia would not be able to convict him with facts.

But similarly, having no real power also means that when the royal family wants to do something to them, their ability to resist is quite limited.

Because they came here to be bandits this time, so they accepted such a worthy title.

They were playing riddles, each one pretending to be more stupid than the other, but they couldn't understand what they were saying.

Count Hansmore is over seventy years old. He has gray hair but is in good spirits. It can be seen that he lives a comfortable life.

The trebuchet was just a cover to cover Nancy's landing on the island.

"I wonder what you are doing here this time?" Count Hansmo chose to test.

Olivia and Nancy entered the city and were stopped by the soldiers at the city gate. Olivia showed Fred's warrant: "I am the next Viscount Cliff, serving the king."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered to come to see Count Hansmore."

Olivia and Blake walked to the carriage to talk.

Olivia said lazily: "Don't you know why we came?"

I don't know who cursed in a low voice: "Female bandit."

"Of course," Blake nodded, "I can cooperate with your actions at any time."

"Father," Olivia called, "Thank you for your hard work, please take a rest."

To be honest, Olivia was shocked. Blake didn't seem like the kind of person who would ask for action on his own. For him, the universe was the biggest and the research was the biggest. But Olivia still agreed to Blake's request and let him come.

.

In front of her elders, Nancy was still polite: "Can I see how the trebuchet is doing?"

But Earl Hansmer has lived for so many years after all, and this little trick can't shake him: "I'm sorry, I really don't know."

In fact, in terms of status, no one present can surpass her, but under normal circumstances, guests will let the host sit on the main seat, unless it is His Majesty the King, even Fred will choose to let the host sit in order to show his humble side.

Get out of the spotlight.

Count Hansmore was calmer than the others. He could see that the person who came was evil, but he could only cover it up.

Politeness? That also depends on the occasion.

Blake had already calculated: "A few hundred times should be enough. The things you are asking to throw are not heavy anyway."

Olivia sat down under Nancy. She looked up at the people still standing and smiled: "You're welcome, everyone, sit down."

Can you not feel comfortable? Although the Hansmo family has territory, they have no real power. In other words, they don't have to take care of things, they can only enjoy themselves without worrying. Who wouldn't envy this kind of life?

"Really?" Olivia said with a smile, "Since you don't even know our purpose of coming, you must not know what happened here."

But Earl Hansmer insisted: "No need, they are not qualified to stay."

The soldiers guarding the city gate had more or less the right to pass the news. When they arrived at Hansmo's house, Count Hansmo and his family were already standing waiting for Olivia and Nancy.

Blake heard the voice and turned around: "Oli, you are here."

Nancy laughed loudly: "Why bother? It's not a big deal. It doesn't matter if your descendants stay and listen."

He raised his hand: "Let everyone else go out. I'll chat with you two."

Olivia actually didn't ask Blake when she went to the manor to recruit people. This time, Blake volunteered automatically.

"You have said so, of course we are all guests." Olivia made a fool of herself. Although she said, "We are all guests," she and Nancy didn't even have the intention to stand up.

When Nancy does this now, it is obvious that she does not intend to be polite, that is, she does not intend to give them face.

Nancy heard it, and so did Olivia, but they turned a deaf ear.

Entering the reception room, Nancy took the host seat without hesitation.

This is a skill in speaking. If you don’t tell the purpose, it’s up to the other person to guess. People with a guilty conscience will naturally feel flustered and short of breath subconsciously.

"Thank you for your hard work." Olivia nodded and said to Nancy, "It's time for us to go."

Olivia stood up at this moment with a smile: "Since you don't know, it must be your heir who did it without telling you, so we will help you clean up your family and prevent you from being dragged down by unscrupulous descendants.

Get into the water.”

Olivia gave Nancy a wink.

Nancy nodded: "Don't worry, leave it to me. It's just a matter of catching a few people. It's very easy."

Before Count Hansmore could say anything, Nancy strode out.
