Chapter 848: Vol V Chapter 208

The cavalry galloped through the open wilderness with the neighing of the warhorses and wild laughter of the knights.

Earl Hauss sat in his carriage and listened peacefully to the noise coming from outside. He was like a person without a skeleton as he sprawled lifelessly on the furry mattress. The maidservant who was sitting across him remained as quiet as a statue.

Suddenly, he frowned.

"Something's not right!" he said. "How come there's not a single pedestrian to be seen along the way?"

By right, there should be many people on the road at this time of the year. When these pedestrians met them along the way, naturally there was only one way out for them. And unfortunately, they were doomed. The only difference in the way they died was nothing more than a faster death or a painful death.

But… Since they set off at noon till now, they had not even met a single person!

This was not normal. This was absolutely not normal!
