"Kill, kill, kill! Kill them all!"

"For Rhodes! For Lord White Bear, Son of Thunder God!"

"Kill them all!"

Just after the Evil Moon, Rhodes convened a military meeting of the Black Hammer Castle and decided to take the initiative to find the Beastmen's lair, the Ten Thousand Demon Rocks, and destroy it to solve the Beastmen's problem once and for all. As soon as this idea was proposed,

He immediately received support from all the warriors of the Norscan tribe. Especially the little dwarf Bogur. The butcher was still bandaged, but he roared excitedly, echoing with the Norscan savages present.

They believed that Rhodes would win, especially after experiencing the second evil moon night, and after witnessing the miracles on Rhodes, everyone no longer doubted that their lord had brought them defeat...

The reason why Rhodes proposed this idea is also based on reason. It is not because he is really invincible and can do whatever he wants, but because the Ice Queen's order is to arrive at Erengrad before the 25th of this month, but

After the beastmen made such a fuss, their troops would definitely not be able to reach Erengrad before the 25th, and they would definitely be held accountable and criticized.

Therefore, since this fact cannot be changed, it is better to simply change the plan and directly attack the beastmen in the territory, permanently eliminating the threat of beastmen in this area, so that the evil moon incident that has plagued the development of Black Hammer Castle will no longer be a threat. Right now,

Just after the evil month, the beastmen experienced heavy losses in the siege of the city and were in a weak state. However, the morale of their own troops was high, which was a good time for a decisive battle.

The soldiers below had high morale, banging the table with their sword hilts, and roaring excitedly.

"Please forgive me for asking, my lord, your squire Jason has died in the last battle, and you have no squire by your side. So, who is your next squire?"

Celta stood up and spoke loudly. Barbarians have never adhered to various etiquettes. They spoke very directly and said what they said without beating around the bush. Rhodes knew that if he wanted to use them, he could not change them too much.

Otherwise, no one would be willing to follow him. Therefore, in addition to obeying his orders in terms of military execution, Rhodes respected the traditions and customs of these northern Norscans in other aspects.

Of course, such direct words from the Norscans would not be acceptable to the Empire or the Kingdom of Bretonnia in the south, as they would be regarded as disrespectful by the local lords. Celta did not mean this, he has always been so careless.

, Rhodes knew this.

"Not ready yet."

Looking at Celta, Rhodes replied.

"Then, I do have a good candidate. I wonder if my Lord will be satisfied?"

Selta said, her eyes narrowed into a line, and she looked at Rhodes with a smile.

"who?"

Rhodes asked.

"My nephew—Newmans."

As soon as Celta finished speaking, Rhodes knew what he was thinking, which was to let his nephew come to the lord to receive training, so that the members of his family could get closer to the lord. Although the Norscans did not play tricks

Political talent, but this move in the empire or in Kislev is actually to place people and cultivate party members.

As the people closest to the lord, the attendants can understand the most real situation of the lord, including the lord's diet and living conditions. Sometimes, some lords will also entrust important tasks to their attendants to perform. From certain perspectives,

, the attendant is also the first person to obtain information. What's more, after gaining the trust of the lord, he can also convey orders for the lord. Some people in high positions, many of whom are unable to approach them, start with the attendants around them.

.

Therefore, the position of Lord's Attendant seems to be an insignificant position, but in fact it means a lot. Rhodes knew that for a rough guy like Selta, he may have introduced his nephew to the Lord as an Attendant just out of good intentions and to experience himself.

However, from Rhodes' point of view, he cannot do this. Otherwise, over time, outsiders will gossip, thinking that Celta is too close to him, and will intentionally or unintentionally elevate the predator.

The captain's status among the Norscans is an unstable factor for management.

Rhodes will not allow such a situation to happen. Once a person who is originally simple and kind-hearted gets too much power, one day he will have evil thoughts. The best way to prevent it is to simply not give him such an opportunity.

Let him continue to be a simple man.

"Celta, Northland Warriors, I accept your kindness, but I just had a new candidate in my mind."

Looking at Celta, Rhodes said bluntly. Although this made Celta a little embarrassed, it at least cut off future power corruption from the source. You can see Celta's slightly sad expression, but he quickly recovered

Come here, the Norscans are not like the southern empire or the Kingdom of Bretonnia. They are not so pretentious. If they can do it, they can do it, and if they don't, they can't. Since they recognize the boss, they must listen to the boss and follow all the boss's arrangements.

And Rhodes did have a suitable candidate in his mind - Talinnam. This young man is a pure Mrs. Kisli and has no relatives with anyone here. He is just a child from a poor family.

A year ago, he met him and his father on the way to Kislev City. At that time, the boy was suffering from rat fever. Before he left, he gave him a gold coin, which became the boy's life-saving money.

, which is equivalent to saving him. So, the boy traveled thousands of miles to come here to repay himself. His loyalty can be trusted, and at the same time, he is also a good candidate. Provided that he is still alive.

Fortunately, there was no boy's name on the list of dead soldiers, so Rhodes asked Muros to help him find him.

When Talinnam was ordered to see Rhodes, he was wearing a bandage on his head, and the red blood was clearly visible. Apparently, the boy had also been injured in the recent Battle of Evil Moon. One can imagine a new recruit who had just enlisted in the army.

What kind of fear would he feel when facing the ferocious and bloodthirsty beastman army? But he survived it in the end. Those who could survive it were no longer considered recruits. After a few more experiences, he could become a veteran.

However, Rhodes did not intend for him to become a veteran who could only fight on the battlefield, but an all-round warrior.

"Talinam, from today on, you will be my attendant. Remember, the Lord of Blackhammer Castle has only one attendant. You must accept all my dispatches and complete all the tasks I arrange. You will be more than just a servant.

You are not a servant, but a warrior. On the battlefield, you will be responsible for protecting me and ensuring my personal safety when you go out with me. You will learn a lot, and when necessary, you will also learn various cultural knowledge and social etiquette.

.In return, you will have a generous salary and even hope to get your own land in the future."

In the hall of Blackhammer Castle, Rhodes spoke to the young man seriously and solemnly, and arranged his work on the spot, granting him his due status. You can see the excited look in Talinnam's eyes, he has achieved
