"Oh, what do you mean? Similar peasant mutinies occurred in many territories?"
Baron Skrang felt a little comforted. It would be okay if his family was not the only one to suffer.
"Who says it's not the case!" Joel, the housekeeper, sighed: "Whether it's a town or a village, farmers in many places want to move to the city of Yoen, and the master is also having a headache over this."
Then Joel bowed and said: "For this matter, the master is discussing countermeasures with several barons. He is in the conference room now. How about you come over too?"
"Okay, I'll go over now." Baron Skrang nodded.
Since it was a discussion of countermeasures, he naturally wanted to participate and see what the Viscount would do.
Baron Skron was led by the butler Joel into the conference room of the residence.
In the conference room, Viscount Henry Moore and several other barons were discussing something.
Seeing Baron Skrone also coming, Viscount Henry Moore stood up and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Brother Skrone, please take a seat!"
After Skron sat down, the Viscount continued: "Brother Skron, have you also seen farmers clamoring to move?"
"Yes." Baron Skrang said with a bitter face.
"Not only that, there was a small-scale mutiny in our village, and the farmers dared to pick up farm tools to resist me. So I would like to ask you to send some soldiers to support my territory."
After listening to Skron's words, several other barons also cast sympathetic looks.
Obviously, the situation in these territories is similar.
Moreover, they usually don't care much about the defensive power in their hands and are unable to deal with the peasants' resistance.
.
The Viscount spread his hands: "Sikron, actually before you arrived, we had already worked out a response strategy, but I just don't know if you are willing to join?"
"What strategy?" the baron asked quickly.
"It's very simple!" the Viscount said with a smile:
"I sent soldiers directly under the territory to clear out the mutinous peasants in each village, and killed a few leading peasants and hung them at the entrance of the village to kill chickens and monkeys.
Of course, as compensation for the soldiers, I want you to pay 20% of this year's taxes as military expenses, are you willing to accept it?"
"If it's 20%..." Baron Skrang nodded fiercely without thinking too much:
"I accept your conditions! Some of the hateful villagers in our Essenna Village must die! Especially an old man named Romney, he actually dares to..."
But at this moment, a deep female voice interrupted Baron Skrone: "What's wrong with Romney? I think he's pretty good? It's my order to resist you."
Hearing this female voice, all the nobles present were shocked!
Because this sound does not come from everyone here, but from the roof.
They looked up in shock.
I saw the ceiling of the roof explode instantly, revealing the blue sky.
Immediately afterwards, a woman wearing a mask, a strange headdress, holding a ring blade, and wearing a green cloak descended from the sky and stepped directly on the conference table in front of them.
boom!
The conference table was torn apart and the conference room was in a mess.
This woman is none other than Maiev Shadowsong who came to perform the mission!
"Who are you?"
"Who sent you?"
"what is your purpose?"
The nobles panicked, and those who had weapons drew their weapons.
Viscount Moore Henry was a low-ranking Silver ranger. When he saw Maiev Shadowsong landing, he immediately drew his sword, and his fighting spirit was aroused.
But Maiev will definitely not give them a chance.
After landing, she directly released her signature skill - [Fan of Knives].
Large swaths of snow-white daggers flew out from under her cloak, instantly hitting every noble present.
Ahhh!
Screams sounded one after another.
Except for Viscount Moore Henry, all the nobles present were at the level of black iron and bronze. They were unable to resist Maiev's attack and fell to the ground screaming.
Baron Skron was even stabbed deeply into the bridge of his nose by a gleaming dagger, killing him instantly.
After [Fan of Knives] was released, the only uninjured person at the scene was Viscount Moore Henry.
Maiev did not hold back. A [Flicker] skill appeared behind the Viscount. The ring blade in her hand glowed with white light and hit the Viscount hard.
Oops! The ring blade passed by.
The Viscount's silver fighting spirit defense was shattered like a piece of paper, his heart was pierced by the barb of the ring blade, and his eyes quickly lost their luster.
It was obvious that he had been instantly killed by Maiev.
But Maiev didn't care about this at all, and didn't even look at the corpse on the ground.
After killing Viscount Moore Henry, she pulled out the ring blade with a cold face and said to a corner of the conference room: "Have all the evidence of their crime been recorded just now?"
In the corner of the conference room, a gray shadow gradually appeared in human form.
He bowed to Maiev and replied: "Lord Maiev, the magic image has been recorded."
"Very good!" Maiev wiped the blood on the ring blade and said, "Remember to give the image to your boss, Taran Zhu, and I will go to Esenna Village."
Before the black shadow could return, Maiev cut off Baron Skrang's head and left the house with a [Flicker].
.
More than ten minutes later, at the entrance of Essenna Village.
boom!
Baron Skron's head was thrown to the ground.
The farmers, led by old man Romney, are now standing opposite Maiev.
They looked at the head on the ground, and then at the mysterious woman in green in front of them, their eyes full of fear.
Maiev said coldly: "This is Baron Skrang, and he is responsible for everything!
Everyone present, you can choose to move to the Jon City area, or you can wait patiently. It is estimated that in three or four years, the new tax law may be implemented here. I have to rush to the next area, goodbye.
"
After Maiev finished speaking, she waved her cloak and walked towards the entrance of the village.
Old man Romney looked at the baron's head and his expression was changing constantly. He didn't expect that such a big man could die so easily.
Seeing Maiev leaving, Mr. Romney boldly shouted: "Is His Highness Sean also coming to our city?"
Maiev paused for a moment, then she replied: "Three days later, the south gate of Pacheng City."
After saying that, Maiev's figure disappeared instantly.
The villagers looked at the place where Maiev went away, and were filled with emotions. They didn't know what to say for a while.
.
Three days later, the south gate of Palomia.
Old man Romney brought the villagers here to watch His Highness Sean's entry into the city.
In these three days, the crimes of Viscount Henry Moore and Baron Scran were made public.
All the villagers in Essenna Village knew that Baron Skron wanted to kill them, so he was killed by that powerful female.
The villagers are very grateful to Maiev, and also very grateful to His Highness Sean.
Chapter completed!
