Chapter 350 Silent Threat

Time goes back to 1 hour ago.

At that time, not only Blood Eye, but also the entire Eagle City, no one expected Nancy to appear on the battlefield.

The same is true for Denise.

After bidding farewell to Viscount John, she returned to her room, watching the fire light up on the road and the flames rising in the camps of horse thieves and pirates, Denise's hanging heart was finally able to let go.

"Ah..."

After untying the belt, the slightly heavy dress fell to the ground, forming a small nest.

If a pair of eyes could stay in this nest, they would definitely peek at the most beautiful scenery in the world.

The slender calves, strong thighs, a little wave squeezed by stockings, and the perfect arc.

Unfortunately, only a pair of high heels were left inside.

Denise stepped on the carpet with bare feet, walked to the dressing table and sat down, looking at her face in the mirror, and sighed faintly.

"Alas..."

Since Raven led the army on the expedition, Nancy has been working hard, and Denise is not the same?

Unfortunately, Raven and Nancy could still exchange private letters, but the correspondence between her and Raven was only official.

Denise reached her hand to her back, frowned slightly, and sighed warmly, finally allowing her to grab the straps of the corset and gently untie it.

The piece of cloth with body temperature was thrown to the ground, and the soft velvet lining was still a little wet.

After sitting for a while, Denise stood up, stripped off the remaining clothes on her body, tiptoed, walked out of the carpet, stepped on the slightly cold floor tiles and came to the bathroom.

The water in the bathtub was steaming.

Denise first tested the water temperature with her fingers, then stepped on the stool, spread her legs, and stepped one foot into the water.

"Huh..."

She waited until her skin became slightly rosy before she put in the other foot, then moved her waist, and her curvy body slid down the edge and immersed in the water.

Soon, the door opened.

Denise's personal maid Anqi came in with a bottle of Angel's Tears that was just cold enough.

Putting the tray next to the barrel, Anqi poured a glass of wine and handed it to Denise, then rolled up her sleeves and carefully placed her hands on Denise's delicate shoulders and kneaded them gently.

The slender fingertips were reddened by the steam, and when they fell on the jade-like ice skin, it was like a white lotus blooming with red stamens.

Denise's body gradually relaxed under the kneading of her fingers. She put the cup next to her, closed her eyes, and fell into a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness.

"Gu..."

Jenny's throat moved and she swallowed her saliva. She felt that Denise's body became softer and softer. The place where her fingertips fell seemed to have no bones at all, as gentle as a spring dream.

Her fingers began to move down, slightly lingering on Denise's collarbone, and then slowly slid down.

Just as she was about to fall into the water and touch the two soft balls, Denise suddenly opened her eyes and straightened her body.

Anqi was like a child who had caused trouble, and quickly retracted her gaze.

But Denise did not mean to blame her, and stood up from the bathtub.

Anqi quickly handed over the bath towel, then held up Denise's bath shoes and knelt under the low stool beside the bathtub.

When Denise turned her body, a pair of slightly red feet stepped on the low stool. Anqi couldn't help but look up, not hiding the appreciation and desire in her eyes, and her intoxication made her lips slightly open.

Her eyes were a little blurred.

"You restless little girl..."

Denise raised her slightly wet right foot and stepped on Anqi's shoulder. Her toes moved lightly and pinched Anqi's earlobe.

The water soaked Angie's clothes, making her tremble. Then she tilted her neck and rubbed Denise's arch with her cheek, flattering like a kitten.

She even stuck out her tongue slightly.

But Denise retracted her legs at this time, got up and walked down the stool, covering her beautiful body in a bathrobe.

Angie's eyes flashed with a trace of undisguised loss, but she immediately restrained it.

While wiping her body in front of the floor-length mirror in the bathroom, Denise suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Angie hurried to answer the door, and soon hurried back: "Madam, Patty said, please go to the meeting room immediately and stop Mrs. Nancy!"

"Nancy, what's wrong?" Denise was startled: "I know, tell her I'll be there soon."

Without too much time to decorate, Denise simply dried her hair, put on a relatively light dress, and left the room.

It took only 5 minutes, which was very fast for noble women of this era.

It was very common to spend 1 or 2 hours putting on makeup for a cocktail party.

But it was still a little late.

When Denise arrived at the meeting room, the room was as lively as a market.

"This is impossible! Madam Nancy, you are asking us to die!" Seleva was excited, dancing with joy, and almost stood on the table.

"Madam Nancy, I also think you should consider the reality, not be impulsive." The slightly fat Baron Zeyi was relatively restrained.

"We only have more than 3,000 soldiers in total, and the 5,000 militiamen you have newly trained have no combat effectiveness at all. It is too unrealistic to send troops at this time." Viscount Broca was more practical.

Through these people's words, combined with Petty's explanation on the way, Denise finally sorted out the cause and effect of the matter.

Viscount John's sudden advance was a success beyond everyone's expectations. Now the fire in the horse thieves and pirates' camp was as big as a forest fire.

Nancy saw an opportunity.

She decided to immediately send all the capable soldiers in Eagle City out of the city to support and meet John, and also took this opportunity to cause more damage to the horse thieves and pirates.

This naturally aroused strong opposition from the nobles.

But Nancy was still stubborn, and the mage robes on her body were rippling with flames, as if to reveal her innermost feelings:

"Dear gentlemen, I certainly will not force you to do anything."

"But in 10 minutes, the city gate will open, and I will lead the army belonging to the Griffith family in Eagle City and be the first to leave the city!"

The scene was silent, and even Sereva, who objected the most fiercely, was speechless.

Is Nancy crazy?

Raven and Nancy are truly the best parents in the world!

One dared to attack a neighboring country rashly, and the other dared to go out to fight at an absolute disadvantage.

Nancy is using her own life to threaten all the nobles present!

The most obvious is the loss of their respective reputations.

If a woman is allowed to leave the city, where will the dignity of these men go?

In the next hundreds or thousands of years, their family will be nailed to the pillar of shame for others to laugh at!

Not to mention, Raven's revenge is bound to come.

If Nancy goes out of the city alone and is trapped among horse thieves, what will they do to explain to Raven when Raven comes back! ?

Are we going to take over Eagle City and confront Raven?

It would be better to find a rope and hang yourself!

Denise frowned, walked through the crowd, and came to Nancy.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on her, with hope in their eyes, hoping that Denise could persuade Nancy.

Viscount John had already accomplished his tactical goal. He would die as soon as he died. Anyway, once the food and grass were burned, the rabble on the opposite side would retreat sooner or later, so why go out and take risks at this time?

Denise's thoughts were different from theirs. She didn't want anything to happen to Nancy at this time - after all, there were too many variables on the battlefield.

However, in front of many nobles, Denise was very measured and did not openly question Nancy's decision, but took her hand and walked to the corner.

Mrs. Doreen, who had been paying attention to this place, also followed.

"Nancy, I think you should really think about it again." Denise whispered:

"Even if it's not for yourself, you have to think about the Griffith family and Raven."

"If something happens to you, then..."

It wasn't very thorough, but it was enough to convey what Denise meant.

The battlefield is too dangerous.

After all, Nancy was a woman. Whether she died in battle or was captured, it would be a major blow to the entire Griffith family.

This is especially true for Raven.

Nancy nodded: "I know what you mean."

"But I understand the cruelty of horse thieves better than you."

"Burn their food and grass, and you may not be able to make them retreat - in the eyes of those beasts, nothing is inedible."

"So we must take advantage of this opportunity to inflict as much damage to the opponent as possible. Otherwise, if we really have to besiege the city for a long time, the Eagle Territory cannot bear that kind of loss."

Denise was startled: "You mean they will..."

There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

Cannibalism? "

Nancy nodded, turned around and walked out.

Denise's face became even more ugly.

The more brutal the horse thief is, the less she can let Nancy leave the city.

She grabbed Nancy's arm:

"Nancy, you can't go."

"Let go." Nancy turned around, blocked the curious sight of many nobles with her body, and said seriously:

"I won't say it a second time."

Denise took a deep breath and her expression also became extremely serious:

"Nancy, don't push me."

Although Raven did not clearly divide power and responsibilities this time, as he did last time, Denise, as the eldest woman in the Griffith family, was qualified to convene a family meeting.

If this power is really used, Nancy will never be able to go out!

But that would also mean that the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two sides would become clear to the public, and division within Eagle City would be inevitable.

Their eyes met each other, as if sparks were about to collide.

Nancy has always been a soft-spoken person. After hearing Denise's words, her chest couldn't help but rise and fall slightly. Although she deliberately lowered her voice, the anger in her words could not be concealed:

"You want to use your status as an elder to suppress me? Do you think I don't know about the mess between you and Raven?!"

"Just because I don't say anything, doesn't mean you can ride on my head!"

"I am the mistress of this house!"

Denise's face turned red after being criticized, and she couldn't help but loosen her fingers.

"Miss!" Jenny quickly pulled Nancy's arm to tell her to stop talking.

Nancy also realized that she had gone too far and quickly looked around.

Fortunately, they were standing in a corner far enough away that the nobles were just looking around and did not hear the conversation.

Mrs. Doreen came forward at this time: "We are all one family, so don't say those hurtful words."

Her appearance eased the awkward atmosphere.

Both Nancy and Denise glanced at Doreen slightly strangely, but Nancy softened first and sighed:

"I do all this for Raven."

"His opponent is an entire principality, not to mention that the nobles who are eyeing his achievements are all eager for him to be frustrated."

"If the siege continues, not only will the food be wasted, but the spring plowing next year will also be greatly affected."

"If the war is not over by then, how can we guarantee the supply of food and grass for his expeditionary army?"

"I can't go to the front line to help him, at least I have to let him have no worries!"

Denise knew that she couldn't persuade Nancy, so she could only nod helplessly.

Nancy turned around, walked to the conference table and said loudly:

"Ten minutes are up, I'm going out now, please do as you please."

As she said, she was the first to walk out the door.

The nobles had to sigh and follow.

Looking at Nancy's back, Denise was a little envious for a while.

At least she has the ability to play a role on the battlefield, while Denise herself is just a level 1 magician, unable to protect herself on the battlefield!

"Madam, Nancy is too much!" Angel felt unfair for Denise:

"It's true that she considered Lord Raven, but didn't you make less contribution? If it weren't for you to coordinate, how could the logistics and food be..."

"Okay, stop talking." Denise shook her head and looked at Doreen: "Madam Doreen, can you please walk with me?"

"Although I can't go to the battlefield in person, at least I want to witness the outcome of this war on the city wall."

Dorin smiled: "Of course."

When the two of them walked up to the city wall wrapped in heavy cloaks, the troops had already set off, and the flames of their torches were almost connected to the enemy's camp.

The horse thieves and pirates all came out in full force in the chaos.

In the dark night, it was almost impossible to see which side was their own and which side was the enemy.

But the good news is that not only Denise couldn't tell, but the horse thieves and pirates themselves couldn't tell!

Their organization was really too chaotic.

Especially the horse thieves.

Many of them were newcomers who had joined Blood Eye only a few months ago, and they didn't know each other very well.

When the nobles' ragtag coalition rushed to their faces, some of them would be stunned and want to ask which big brother they followed.

Of course, the ending was usually to receive a sword answer.

Even if the noble coalition asked questions, they would "kindly" point out the way!

So, this march was smoother than everyone expected.

Including the 5,000 militiamen, a total of nearly 8,000 people, inserted like a hot knife through butter.

In the chaotic battlefield, the horse thieves' extremely rough command system was completely out of order, which led to Blood Eye's failure to notice that the Eagle City team had come.

He didn't think of this section at all.

So, when Nancy appeared in front of him, the shock and surprise almost filled his heart!

"I'll kill this man!" Nancy's voice was full of confidence.

Facing the high-spirited Nancy, Blood Eyes suddenly smiled:

"Ha, a fire mage, so young, you must be Nancy, right?"

He wiped his fingers across his thick lips, and the bloody fighting spirit as thick as real blood surrounded him endlessly. His naked eyes almost stripped Nancy naked:

"I have heard that Raven's wife is a beauty. When I met her today, she is indeed as famous as she is."

"I have long wanted to taste the taste of the Baroness!"

Before he finished speaking, he rushed over like a crossbow arrow!
