The messenger Tolance rode a fast horse and galloped to Miaoyin City day and night. In the castle hall, Sheltai allowed him to sit and asked the waiter to pour him a glass of wine. This was rare.

Sheltai attaches great importance to his background, and it is rare that he would give such courtesy to a messenger.

"How is the situation in the royal capital?"

"Barkeen is very diligent. Although he has appointed a group of new officials and generals, he has to ask about all matters of big and small, and even if he has sold a few cows in the market."

Sheltai opened the seal on the letter tube: "That's not diligence, it's an obsession with power. Hasn't he found himself a queen?"

"He had some contact with the two noble ladies in the capital, but I don't know if it was that kind of relationship."

Sheltai twisted the message open and sneered: "A disgusting hobby, is he still recruiting troops?"

"It never stopped. He replaced all the guards in the palace."

"It should have been replaced long ago, those guards..." Sheltai was suddenly stunned. When he pulled out the letter, a spark suddenly appeared in the letter tube.

The spark was stuck to Sheltai's clothes and immediately turned into a flame.

Level 4 is the bottleneck of the Divine Punishment Warrior, and Level 5 warriors are rare. Even Sheltai has never seen the fifth-level skill of the Divine Punishment Warrior.

But he knew that this spark was unusual and had heard of the cause of the death of the eldest prince. He quickly took off his clothes. Although he was moving very quickly, he still felt a burning pain on his arm.

A spark fell on his forearm and quickly spread between his flesh and blood. It was useless to slap and water. Seeing the tragedy of the eldest prince happening again, she suddenly heard Sheltae shouting: "At this time, all the skills related to fire will be invalid, no matter where this skill comes from!"

It was the rule, the rules worked, the flames on the forearm were extinguished, leaving a large burn.

Sheltai endured the severe pain and looked at the messenger Tolance.

Tolanci was frightened and shook his head repeatedly, "Sir, I don't know what happened. This is the message barrel given to me by Barkern. I have never opened it. The sealing is complete. I don't know what is inside."

"Don't you know? You're totally unaware?" Shelty grinned, "How much benefit did Barker give you? Let you try your best to get close to me, and then fight for this life to harm me?"

Tolanci shook his head desperately: "Sir, I didn't harm you, Barkern has never given me anything!"

"Yes, he doesn't need to give you anything. You have been following him for twenty years and have long become a mature dog!"

"Sir, I don't, really, I don't dare to lie to you..."

Tolanci stood up and wanted to run, but found that he could not run to the gate. Sheltai made the rules: no one was allowed to leave the hall at this time.

The two guards held Tolance down, Sheltai took out a knife and pierced Tolance's left leg first: "Tell me, what news did you find out from me?"

Tolanci denied it repeatedly and begged.

Sheltai smacked his lips: "Tsk tsk tsk, you are such a tough guy."

After saying that, he quilted Tolance's right eye.

...

Tolanci was tortured for a whole afternoon, and he died until dusk. The medical officer treated Sheltai's wound. Sheltai wanted to go to bed early, but suddenly he heard the guards report, and Marquis Nars was waiting in front of the door.

"It's him again!" Sheltai said with disgust, "Tell him that I'm not feeling well and let him come again another day."

"He brought Viscount Cyrus's daughter."

"Selles' daughter, Roma Cyrus?" Sheltai smiled, "Nars finally got to know him, let him come in."

Marquis of Drawing, Nars brought Sellers and his daughter to the hall. After Dernko was defeated, Nars was desperate and after several twists and turns, he came to the south to go to Sertai.

For Roma, this was undoubtedly a disastrous result. Even the one who defected to God's Punishment was much better than Schertai.

After staying in Miaoyin City for more than a month, Nars never met Schertai. It was not until he heard about the festival between Schertai and Roma that he knew why Schertai refused to see him.

Today he brought Roma to vent his anger.

Nars knelt on one knee and begged Sheltai for the humblest attitude: "I am willing to go through fire and water for you, I am willing to serve you in front of your saddle, even if I am just a guard who raises your shield for you, I am willing to..."

Sheltai was too lazy to listen to these nonsense, and pointed at Roma and asked, "Who is this person around you? Why do you look like a beast?"

Narls looked at Viscount Cyrus, and Cyrus quickly replied, "This is my daughter, Roma."

"Daughter?" Sheltai sneered, "I thought it was a man."

Of course he knew Roma, who had captured him alive, and now he was going to give Roma the most vicious humiliation, not just verbal.

Sheltai looked at Nars and said, "What did you bring this savage who is neither male nor female?"

Before Nars could speak, Cyrus rushed to say, "This idiot has offended you. I brought her here to accept your punishment."

"Of course?" Sheltai frowned, "Do I know her?"

"I, I, what I said..."

Nars quickly interrupted Sellers. If they dared to mention Sertai's disgraceful past at this time, they would probably not beg for the inclusion of them.

"Duke, the reason I brought Roma is because she is a very outstanding general who is willing to charge for you on the battlefield."

"General? I've heard of this," Sheltae smiled. "It's said that there was a woman who was very good at fighting in the city of Drawing Sha. She fought on Manda Claudesey's bed in one battle. I'm really curious about what method Manda Claudesey used to conquer a beast like you. Tell me, how did he do it."

Roma lowered his head, and Sheltai frowned and said, "Why, you can't speak? I almost forgot that you are a mute, it doesn't matter if you can't speak. Take off your clothes and let me see if you are a human or a beast?"

Nars laughed dryly and said, "Sir, here..."

Sheltai said angrily: "Did I let you speak?"

Nars dared not speak, and Sellers glared at Roma and said, "Didn't you hear the orders of the Grand Duke?"

Roma gritted her teeth, her body trembling.

Sheltai stood up and said, "What kind of attitude do you have? Do you despise me?"

Grand Duke Cyrus kicked Roma hard: "What are you waiting for? Do you want to kill us?"

Roma closed her eyes and went to untidy her belt. Seeing that she was about to take off her military uniform, she suddenly saw a guard coming forward and whispered a few words to Shertai.

Sheltai looked solemn and said to Nars: "Wait for me here first, I have a lot of things to talk to you slowly."

Sheltai left, and Nars whispered to Roma: "No matter what happens today, you have to bear it. Don't think you are helping us. You are redeeming yourself and committing those unforgivable sins for you!"

Sheltai's new general Medesser was waiting in the side hall. He brought a message that Sheltai was so proud that he saw a group of divine punishments near Xiangteng County.

"You are indeed not wrong?"

"Their costumes and flags are so obvious, I can't read them wrong."

"Barkeen asked Tolanci to assassinate me, and then he launched troops in Xiangteng County. He was so confident? How did he know that Tolanci would succeed?"

After thinking for a long time, Sheltai shook his head and said, "Barkeen won't choose Shanteng County. He is not that stupid. Where he will be attacked by me and Leonder."

"What if Leonder surrendered to Barkern?"

"Impossible, how could Tifeng's believers surrender to God's punishment?"

"They have no choice, they have no food," Medeser is not just a military general, but also knows some about government affairs. "One of the time, they are desperate, and secondly, they hold a grudge against us, and they are expected to defect to Barkern."

This sentence made Sheltai feel nervous, saying that he was an ally, and he had not been in contact with Leonder for a long time. Besides, Leonder was not from a noble family, so he could not expect him to always abide by the covenant, especially when facing difficulties.

Barkeen once mentioned in his letter that Leond had surrendered to him, perhaps this was not a bluff. If they raised an army together in Kantou County, Miaoyin City would be in danger.

Sheltai's expression became more and more serious. Seeing this, Medeser volunteered: "Let me take five thousand people over, annihilate the group of divine punishment first, and take the opportunity to shock Leonder and let him know who is the master of the south!"

Sheltai shook his head and said, "I always feel that there is another conspiracy here, and we cannot let our soldiers take risks. There is a more suitable candidate than you."

Back at the hall, Sheltai changed his expression, which was obviously much more kinder than before.

"Roma Cyrus, a famous general who drew the samu. I just joked with you, I hope you don't mind."

Viscount Cyrus quickly bowed and said, "Duke, how could we mind, your wit and kindness touched us..."

Sheltai waved his hand and signaled that Sellers would stop, not licking, and even stretched out his tongue desperately. Everything he said was offensive.

"I'm in a little trouble right now. A group of divine punishment men came to Xiangteng County to provoke me. I can't pull out the soldiers in my hands for the time being, so I need your help, Marquis Nars, how many people do you have?"

"More than 3,200 people, they are all outside the city."

"Can they still fight?"

"You can fight for you at any time, just our supplies..."

"I will provide you with food and weapons, so don't let me down."

Nars leaned over and saluted, "Thank you for your glory."

Sheltai waved his hand and signaled that the meeting ended here.

...

Back at the camp outside the city, Roma got into his tent and sat silently in a daze.

Cuidi came to Roma and asked, "I heard that you were humiliated by the Grand Duke?"

Roma did not respond, she knew that Cui Dishan was not here to comfort her.

"You deserve it. See what you have done us? I am the daughter of a marquis. I eat shit bread and salted vegetable soup every day. What is the difference between living and beggars? What did I do wrong? Why did I get to know you? Why did I suffer such torture!" Cui Dishan cursed for a long time, pointed to Roma's nose and said, "I heard that you are going to fight. You'd better die on the battlefield and roll to hell with your curse all over you!"

Cui Dishan left, and Roma lay on the straw mat and closed her eyes.

Her lips were moving, and although she couldn't speak, she kept repeating a name.
