With his eyes secretly glancing at the knife on the side, Xie Feng said with a wry smile: "Killing the captain is treasonous, my dear."

In the morning light coming in from the window, you can clearly see Jack's ferocious face, approaching Xie Feng step by step.

Xie Feng said hurriedly: "If you have something to discuss, let's discuss it. As I said just now, if you have any opinions, you can raise them with me in private. You don't have to look for revenge with a bad face."

Jack said coldly: "Okay, I will discuss it with you now - what happened to Allia?" As he said that, Jack pulled out the single knife nailed to the door panel, and the blade began to scratch Xie Feng's face.

.

Xie Feng smiled bitterly and said: "Ah ha ha ha... The way of 'discussing carefully' in your hometown is really special... Arlia, isn't this your real name? What else could happen? Ah ha ha ha...

"

The knife that was scraped on Xie Feng's face was two cents closer, and thin stubble began to be scraped off. Jack continued to say with a cold face: "I'm asking you how you know, don't test my patience."

Xie Feng continued to smile apologetically: "Well... you mentioned it accidentally when you were talking in your sleep before, and I heard it by chance."

"Shasha..." Xie Feng clearly felt that the beard on the side of his face next to the knife had been shaved clean. Jack sighed and said, "So are these your last words?"

Xie Feng said anxiously: "Ah? Aha! It turns out you don't have the habit of talking in your sleep... Aha, can you put down the knife first? Look, my face is starting to peel off from you..."

Jack still said coldly: "You are so thick-skinned, you should shave it off a little thinner."

Xie Feng was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat and said hurriedly: "I will say! I will say! I will say anything!"

The knife on his face was finally loosened, and Jack said to Xie Feng expressionlessly: "Tell me, if I know you lied, you will have to lose at least two pounds today." As he said that, Jack put the knife to his mouth and tapped it lightly.

Blowing, Xie Feng's beard and skin flakes stuck to the blade were blown away.

Xie Feng swallowed, thought for a while, and said: "What I am going to tell you next may be hard for you to believe, but it is the truth. In addition, I also hope that you will not tell other people about this matter. A

It is quite painful for people to keep a secret all the time. But when too many people know this secret, it becomes even more painful..."

Five minutes later, Xie Feng clutched his stomach and huddled on the floor in pain, with two lines of tears still hanging on his face. He said sadly: "Okay... at any rate, I am too... why did you, captain... do it... so... seriously?"

…”

Jack patted his right knee gently and said silently: "If you were not the captain, I would be more willing to stab you with a knife."

Xie Feng said aggrievedly: "I...I am telling the truth...Why do you still hit me..."

Jack stared at Xie Feng leisurely and said: "If you were an angel, we and other mortals would naturally not be able to hit you. Now I can beat you down, and your lies will be self-defeating."

Xie Feng's eyes were full of tears, and he cried: "This angel is not that angel...Why no one believes me when I tell the truth..."

Seeing Jack approaching with a knife, Xie Feng hurriedly said: "Hey, hey, hey! What's the problem? Why are you afraid of letting others know that you are a woman? Why does a well-behaved girl pretend to be a man?

Is it fun? Don’t you think it’s hard?”

Jack's footsteps suddenly paused slightly, but it was only for half a second, and then he continued to approach Xie Feng while swinging the knife.

Xie Feng's mind was spinning rapidly, and then he shouted: "I know your dream is to become a glorious knight, but I don't think your gender has much impact on your dream! You have proven it with practical actions

You are not worse than others. In this case, since you are not worse, what are you afraid of? Who stipulates that women cannot become knights? If someone is dissatisfied, you will fight with him. The continent of Calradia speaks for itself with strength.

It's not based on gender. If you really have that ability, galloping with iron hooves and flying swords, who would dare to disobey you?"

Jack's footsteps paused again, this time, the pause was obviously longer than before.

"Da, da." There was a knock on the door.

Xie Feng stood up straight despite the pain and shouted: "Who is it?" But in his heart he really wanted to shout: "Come and save me!"

The voice outside the door said: "It's me, captain." Oh no, it's Fei Nan. He can't beat Jack, so calling in is useless.

Xie Feng had to ask: "What's the matter?"

Fernand responded: "I just received a document."

"Where did it come from?"

"Kingdom of Swadia."

"Huh?" Xie Feng was depressed for a while: "Who sent it?"

Fernand responded hesitantly: "It's Charlotte, the daughter of Earl Craggs, the lord of Suno, whom we met last time. Charlotte...but..."

Xie Feng asked: "But what?"

Fernand said: "The letter is signed by Count Charlotte..."

Xie Feng was puzzled: "What?"

Fernand replied again: "The signature is Earl Charlotte. Captain, the Swadian messenger who just sent the letter also accidentally said that Earl Craggs has abdicated due to physical discomfort, and the title and territory are passed to his daughter Xia.

Lot inherits.”

Xie Feng first suppressed his doubts, turned around and whispered to Jack: "Look, Countess, what I said is right, right? As long as you are willing to work hard, you can do it."

Jack said nothing, expressionless, and continued to walk towards Xie Feng. Under Xie Feng's fear, Jack bypassed Xie Feng, walked to the door, opened the door, and walked out to Fernand's slightly surprised eyes.

Xie Feng's room.

Watching Jack's back walking further and further away, Fernand shook his head and asked in confusion: "Why did he appear in your room? Could it be..."

Xie Feng gave Fernand a slap in the face and scolded: "Don't think too much. He just came to talk about the universe and life. Be careful if I inscribe on your face again... Where is the paperwork?"

Fernand stuck out his tongue, handed the document in his hand to Xie Feng, and then ran away.

Xie Feng returned to the room, opened the letter, and glanced through it.

This letter is indeed written in the name of "Earl of Charlotte". It is basically some words of greetings and greetings. It is a standard goodwill and social letter. However, the title of "Earl of Charlotte" is not mentioned in the letter.

The origin of the title was not mentioned at all, which made Xie Feng very puzzled. It seemed that Charlotte had already tacitly assumed that Xie Feng already knew the origin of her title of "Earl".

Xie Feng put down the letter and thought about it. According to the traditional customs of this world, titles are generally inherited by the eldest son. If there are no children, the title will be inherited by the daughter. Not to mention that Earl Craggs himself has many children and grandchildren, just "

The definition of "inheritance" is very problematic - before Craggs is dead, can it really be called "inheritance"? According to my impression of Charlotte, I am afraid she did not know what tricks she used to get Craggs.

Abdicated, right?

Since he couldn't figure it out, Xie Feng decided not to think about it anymore, and took out a pen and paper to plan the development of the team. Recruitment was necessary, and now the team only had twenty-two people including himself, and it was still a mixed bag of good and bad. To deal with ordinary criminals

It's okay, but if it faces a regular army, it will definitely suffer. According to Xie Feng's previous experience in playing games, in this world, a team must have the ability to protect itself, at least there must be a team of fifty people, and the arms must be mutually exclusive.

Cooperation requires a certain tacit understanding among the team members... Oops, why is it so troublesome! These things are obviously not suitable for me to do! But fortunately, we have Randy in time in our team, an experienced and brave cavalryman

As the captain of the team, he will be responsible for all arrangements for military affairs.

Thinking of this, Xie Feng suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was much lighter. He remembered a sentence he had heard before, which probably meant that a successful leader is not one who can do everything and is willing to do it, but one who knows how to entrust certain tasks to whom.

Do. After thinking about this, Xie Feng thought about what else he could do. After thinking about it, he found that he didn't have to do anything - developing a team is nothing more than people, money, and materials. In terms of people,

In terms of quality, he has talents in all aspects under his account, and in terms of quantity, Randy has been responsible for it; in terms of finance, after a large order from Kristina, the team has not yet fallen into any financial difficulties——

On the contrary, everyone had a pretty good life; in terms of things, Ali was responsible for the production and research and development of the ballistae, and he had no involvement. To sum it up in one sentence - he didn't have to do anything.

Xie Feng scratched his head and found that this conclusion of "he didn't have to do anything" was a bit difficult to adapt to. He had thought that with an enemy as the king, he would have to work hard for a while in order to develop his team and protect himself.

When I prepared myself to be busy, I found that I was still so busy that it was scary. All development had to be gradual and there was no rush. It was said that the development of the team was imminent, but it was exactly the same as before.

"There must be something I can do." Xie Feng said to himself and paced around the room. Obviously he couldn't accept the fact that he was so idle. His eyes glanced aimlessly and saw the letter sent by Charlotte on the table.

letter.

Xie Feng thought: "Since she has become an earl and has sent a letter, I have to answer the letter at least, right? Or even send a congratulatory message to her for becoming a lord?" Finally, I have something to be busy with, so I won't be too busy.

Being so bored, Xie Feng immediately sat down again excitedly, picked up the quill, and was about to write a thousand lines of text eloquently when "ta, da." There was a knock on the door.

Without raising his head, Xie Feng shouted "Please come in". At the same time, the pen in his hand was dipped in ink and he wrote "Dear Earl Charlotte" on the paper. Then he felt that the attributive was not appropriate, so he added "Dear Earl Charlotte"

I crossed out the word "Dear" and wrote the word "respect" on top. I thought it was too fake, so I crossed out all three words "Dear". I also felt that writing "Earl Charlotte's Colon" alone was too abrupt.

I couldn't think of the right words, so I threw the pen into the ink bottle depressedly and looked up at the person who just came in.

Sera stood beside Xie Feng without saying a word, looking very worried.

Xie Feng stared at Sera for a while, then asked cautiously: "What's the matter?"

Sera also looked at Xie Feng but said nothing.

Xie Feng felt depressed for a while: "You came to me but didn't say anything. What kind of plane are you going to make?" After all, he was used to Sera's weird character, so Xie Feng didn't pay much attention and picked up the quill again.

, wrote at the beginning of the paper: "Dear." I thought that although Charlotte was not from her own country, after all, her title was greater than mine. As an official term, it would be more appropriate to use "Dear" - even if

From the bottom of my heart, I don't think she has anything worthy of respect.

After finishing the preface, Xie Feng looked at it with satisfaction, then changed the line and wrote: "Remembering the last time we parted, two months have passed..." At this time, there was no ink on the pen, and Xie Feng continued

Move the pen to the ink and dip it in it.

At this time, Sera on the side finally spoke: "I want to restore the country... and fight against Yarogork as an orthodox royal family."

Xie Feng said "Oh" and continued to write: "As the saying goes, three days of farewell_____________" The last stroke of the word "日" was dragged out for a long time. At the same time, Xie Feng's body was shocked, and the pen in his hand was as if he had just left.

The red-hot iron block taken out of the stove was bounced far away by Xie Feng's hand, leaving a perfect parabola of ink in the air. When the quill fell to the ground, ink suddenly splashed everywhere.

Xie Feng stared blankly at the pen that had fallen to the ground. He stayed for a while before reacting. He suddenly stood up, moved his stiff neck with difficulty, turned his face to Sera, and then asked slowly: "You... just said

What?"

As if she had been prepared for it, Sera did not show any attitude towards Xie Feng's abnormal reaction. She just stared at Xie Feng firmly and said word by word: "I mean, I want to restore my country."

Xie Feng said "Oh", as if suddenly enlightened, and turned his face back to the paper.
