plan

This time, Colin told them his real name.

He knew that the people in front of him were not the same as the Firefox Mercenaries. If he continued to use the fake identity of "Kahn Suduo", the chances of him being exposed would be high.

Moreover, he did not know who wanted to kill him before.

Now, since he already knew who the murderer was, there was no need to hide anymore.

There was only one thing he wanted to do — revenge!

"Angele?" The female mage frowned. She felt like she had heard this name before, but she could not remember where.

"Lord of Graycastle Town, Baron Angele, Roaring White Bear." Knight Bliss reminded her.

"Yes, it is my father."

Colin put his left hand on his chest and bowed, making a standard aristocratic salute.

The female mage hesitated for a moment, then stood up and bent her knees. Her right hand pressed her lower abdomen, and her left hand lifted the skirt of her mage robe.

Sure enough!

Colin's heart skipped a beat. This female mage was really a noble.

Hehe, a mage among nobles.

This is really interesting.

Moreover, looking at the respectful attitude of Knight Bliss, and the way he protected her all the way, this female mage probably had a close relationship with the House of Saint Hilde!

However, Colin did not have the intention to investigate her real identity.

Now, the relationship between the nobles of the empire and the Mage Parliament was cold, so this female mage who was born a noble was naturally an awkward existence.

She had been hiding her face all this time because she did not want others to know her real identity.

Colin came here with the help of Whitey, hoping to establish a relationship with the real owner of the Northern Frontier — the House of Saint Hilde.

This was the key to him being able to avenge his predecessor and completely get himself out of danger.

"I didn't expect Knight Colin to be in the Mirror Lake Camp." Bliss looked at Colin expressionlessly, his indifferent eyes had a trace of scrutiny.

"It's just a coincidence." Colin answered vaguely, then changed the topic and asked about the purpose of this trip. "May I ask, what are we going to do next?"

"Knight Colin, do you have any suggestions?" Bliss did not answer Colin's question.

Although Colin's identity gave him the right to join the discussion, it did not mean that he would automatically gain the trust of Bliss and the others.

Colin didn't mind Bliss's wariness. He picked up a tree branch and drew a simple map on the ground.

"If I remember correctly, the closest city to us is Fallen Eagle City. It's in the southeast direction, and it's about four to five days away. According to the direction we're heading, that should be our destination, right?"

"Yes." Seeing that Colin was so familiar with the surrounding environment, Bliss did not deny it.

Colin smiled faintly as the tree branch in his hand continued to draw circles around the Fallen Eagle City. "Then do you think we can hold on until we reach Fallen Eagle City?"

Bliss stopped talking.

However, Colin still caught a hint of uncertainty in his eyes, which were pretending to be firm.

Along the way, the small cavalry team left behind by the House of Saint Hilde in the Mirror Lake Camp had suffered heavy casualties. However, the pursuers behind them seemed to be endless, and they were getting closer and closer.

Obviously, Bliss was beginning to feel that the situation was not good.

"Knight Colin, do you have any suggestions?" This time, it was the female mage who asked.

Colin smiled as he drew a big 'X' on the Fallen Eagle City and said firmly, "We can't go to Fallen Eagle City. That's a dead end!"

The female mage frowned, seemingly unhappy with Colin's assertion.

However, Knight Bliss beside her asked, "Then, in your opinion, which direction should we go?"

Seeing that Bliss did not deny his words, Colin immediately understood. Bliss must have noticed that a large net was quietly forming around them, waiting for them to fall into it.

Since Fallen Eagle City was their most likely escape route, the trolls would definitely have set up many obstacles in that direction.

"Go north!" Colin drew a huge arrow on the ground, pointing north.

"North?" The female mage suddenly exclaimed, "Then aren't we going back again?!"

That's right, if they went north, they would be in the direction of the Mirror Lake Camp.

Bliss did not speak, staring blankly at the simple map on the ground.

Colin raised his hand and gestured for the other party to calm down. He then explained, "If you also think that going north is an impossible choice, then it means that the trolls will not expect us to turn back."

"But … But isn't that … walking right into a trap?"

"There is indeed a large net around us, and it's getting tighter and tighter." Colin opened his right hand and clenched it tightly, "However, the weakest part of this net is the north! If we want to break free, the best choice is to turn back and go north! "

"Furthermore …" Colin paused, "Marquis Charles' real army should be in the north."

Knight Bliss' eyes flashed, but he remained silent.

The female mage did not have any qualms about this, nor was she surprised that Colin could guess Marquis Charles' intentions. Instead, she asked directly, "Do you think Marquis Charles has a chance of defeating the troll army?"

Colin spread his hands and shook his head.

He did not even know how many troops Marquis Charles had, how strong they were, or how well they could command on the spot … How could he guess the outcome of the battle?

"Whether Marquis Charles wins or loses, it doesn't have much to do with us. Because, what we need to do now is to jump out of the encirclement that our pursuers are weaving.

After we jump out, we can release the sentries and scout for information on the Mirror Lake Battlefield. Then, we can make further plans. That way, we'll have a lot more room to maneuver. "

The female mage thought about it and felt that Colin's words made sense.

However, she had focused on arcane research since she was young and had not received any military education. She could not make up her mind about Colin's bold suggestion, so she could only look at Knight Bliss for help.

Bliss pursed his lips and thought for a while before finally nodding, "I agree."

Colin immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Although turning around and heading north was indeed the best chance to break free of the encirclement, he did not say the real reason why he did not want to continue forward.

Further ahead was Fallen Eagle City, and the biggest suspect for the murder of his predecessor, his sister Caitlin, was there!

If it was only Caitlin's scheme, then Colin was actually not too afraid.

However, if the Lord of Fallen Eagle City, Earl Oman, was also involved, then he would really be walking right into a trap if he went there now.

"Alright! Then we'll turn around tomorrow and head north! "Seeing that Bliss had agreed to Colin's plan, the female mage made up her mind.

She then returned the kitten in her arms to Colin and asked, "Why do you call it Whitey?"

Colin smiled as he took the pure blue short-haired cat, "Is the name Whitey not nice?"

"No, it's just … It's a little unexpected."

"Haha!" Colin laughed and replied pointedly, "Is it a good thing to always let others

guess what you're thinking?"

The female mage laughed as well, her large eyes turning into crescent moons, "That makes sense!"
