"Sir, something seems to be wrong.
You go first and I'll stay."
Not only did John discover a problem, but his attendant Maxi also noticed something was wrong.
As a commoner, he also participated in John's conspiracy.
Being able to willingly serve as a squire after possessing the power of a knight, Maxi's loyalty to John must be unquestionable.
If Duke Stuart really has something to say to John, let Maxi convey it, and John will be very relieved.
But for some reason, John had a strong hunch that the person chasing him was definitely not the Duke of the Sea.
"The person coming may be Lorne Fast.
He will recognize you if you stay.
We will leave immediately.
If it is really Duke Stuart, he will find a way to contact me."
If it’s not the Duke of the Sea, then there’s only Lorne.
Although John didn't understand how Lorne avoided the Stuart family and caught up with him directly, but if this location was discovered by Lorne at this time, then his collusion with the Stuart family would be very serious.
Possibly exposed.
John didn't want to cause trouble, but unfortunately Lorne was much faster than he imagined.
Moreover, something went wrong with the originally useful war horse under his crotch, and it actually fell off the chain at a critical moment.
The way he was pacing slowly seemed to be deliberately waiting for the pursuers behind him.
Knowing that he couldn't run away, John simply ordered all identification signs to be hidden and hid on the spot.
Anyway, as long as he and Maxi were not discovered by Lorne, no one would know that he had been here.
But how could John know that Lorne had placed so many positioning devices around him, and hiding would only make him discovered by Lorne faster.
But before finding John, Baron Fast met the Duke of the Sea.
John left from behind the Duke, while Lorne was located directly in front of Stuart's army.
Although the Fast family's army was unimaginably flexible, they still had the geographical advantage and the Duke successfully conducted an effective interception.
A wave of arrows coming from the side almost hit him.
The bows and arrows purchased from Brilliant City were far more advanced than the weapons used in the north.
Coupled with the special armor-piercing arrows, many of Lorne's reformers were immediately defeated.
Lorne, who also owned those pulley bows and arrows, could immediately distinguish the opponent's weapons from the distance, and the sail heraldic battle flag fluttering in the wind also showed him the opponent's identity.
After comparing the number of people and the status of both sides, Lorne did not choose to fight the attackers desperately.
However, the Duke of the Sea's original intention was not to scare Lorne with a wave of arrows.
He hung a corpse high up.
He wanted to use the impulsive characteristics of the northerners to lure Lorne to attack.
Occupying a good position in the dense forest, the cavalry could not play much role.
But Luo En didn't even pay attention to the opponent's shouts, or even look at him.
He just wanted to get out of the opponent's attack range quickly.
Fortunately, not everyone is like him and can ignore the enemy's provocation.
He is also the knight of the Habs family.
Lorne only wanted to keep him as a witness.
But the other party obviously misunderstood his importance.
When Baron Fast was about to run away, he actually dared to pull Lorne's horse rein.
The unaware lifting action made Lorne raise his riding crop, wanting to give the opponent a blow, but before he could hit him, Anna, who was being carried by the scammer, let out a miserable scream.
It's not Anna he wants to beat.
What's going on with the little girl's screams?
After being dragged along all the way by the scammer, Lorne thought Anna had no strength to speak.
Facts also proved that the girl's physical strength was indeed exhausted.
After a short scream, Miss Hubbs fainted simply.

The scream stopped suddenly, and Lorne almost thought something happened to Anna.
There was no need for him to check.
The knight who held Lorne told him the reason.
"Baron, there, damn, what is there?"
What the knight said should be a question, but the other party's tone was obviously not consulting Lorne.
Following the direction the other party pointed, Baron Fast also understood why the other party's voice was trembling.
The reason for Anna's fainting was also very good, because anyone who suddenly saw his father being hung up would not have a good feeling.
Miss Hubbs was carried all the way by the scammer.
When she fainted, it was because her body's protective mechanism was at work.
"Then is that the Grand Duke of the North?"
In order to let everyone see the hanging corpse clearly, the Duke of the Sea found a most eye-catching position and even used a torch to light up the corpse.
Even Nancy, who was out of breath, could distinguish the corpse wearing the ducal costume, not to mention the other members of the Habsburg family.
"Baron, please give the order."
The knight said that he had already drawn his weapon.
Regardless of the authenticity of the corpse, since the Stuart family dared to do such a thing, then this would be a fight to the death.
The Duke's provocation method was very successful for pure Northerners, but Lorne was not a Northerner.
While others were still doubting the authenticity of the corpse, he already understood everything.
He even had a reasonable guess as to what happened to the transformed people he sensed.
Although he didn't know the process, he believed that John and the Duke of Stuart killed the Archduke of the North.
Even the Grand Duke of the North has died, so there is no reason for this war to continue.
Without any sense of honor as a northerner, this guy gave his own order.
"Everyone get out of here" can make him shout.
Lorne's order is naturally not for the reformers, so he reminded the surviving Habs family knights, "We have to find the army in the north.
Others Everything will have to wait until later.”
Lorne's behavior of settling accounts afterwards was not in line with the values of the people of the North.
After seeing that the knight was unmoved, he pointed at Anna and said: "There is another member of the Habs family here.
We need to bring her back alive."
Now, I say it again, everyone leaves immediately.”
The knights of the Habsburg family, their most direct task is of course to protect the members of the Habsburg family.
This is also the reason why they have been following Lorn, but Lorn's next behavior does not seem to be protective.
"Wake her up.
I don't want her to be out of breath by the time we find the Northern Army."
After fainting, Anna drooped her head.
With his rude and deceitful character, Lorne wouldn't be surprised if the little girl was strangled to death by it.
But his real purpose was not for Anna's good.
Since he had accidentally discovered the place where John and the Sea Duke committed the murder, Lorne didn't mind exposing Baron Carter's behavior by the way.
It's just that he alone is not authoritative enough, so Lorne needs a strong witness
