"Sir, we found a cellar under Wade's bedroom!" Chris quickly came out and reported to Roger: "The entrance to the cellar is very secret, and there must be something shady inside. []"
This was the good news that Roger had been waiting for. He quickly asked the knight to lead the way to check what they found.
Although the Wade family's house looks very ordinary from the outside, the decoration inside is very luxurious, and you can tell that a lot of money has been spent. When Roger came to the bedroom, he found that the entrance to the cellar had been opened, and Phil was using
The torch is shining inside.
"I checked, there is only one room down there, there shouldn't be any danger." Seeing Roger coming to the bedroom, Phil immediately reported his findings to him.
"I'll go down." Roger couldn't wait to know what good things were in the cellar. He took the torch from the knight's hand and went down to the cellar first.
The area of the cellar is similar to that of the bedroom above. One of them is specially dug to store things. There are many sets of armors, swords and even weapons such as crossbows hidden in the cellar. However, these things are not what Roger is looking for.
So he didn't pay too much attention, but the two small boxes placed in the corner caught Roger's attention.
"I hope there are some good things inside..." Roger murmured to himself as he opened a box. When he knew what was in the box, he immediately smiled with satisfaction.
A box full of kingdom gold coins, estimated to be at least six or seven hundred. The golden light reflected under the light of the torch made people's hearts beat faster involuntarily.
"This guy Wade actually hid so many gold coins. You have to say that he has no problem!" Facing this box full of gold coins, Roger said indignantly: "How much pay does a guard captain get for a month? He will work for a lifetime.
You can't even save so much money, this guy is really a liar!"
Just as Roger was scolding Wade, one hand quietly reached into the box and grabbed a handful. Then with a thought, the gold coins in his hand disappeared and were all put into the warehouse.
However, Roger was not satisfied. He repeated the same action several times. It was not until half of the gold coins in the box were gone that he stopped.
After grabbing the remaining gold coins in the box, Roger said angrily: "My hands are sore from holding it, but there are so many gold coins left. This Wade is really too much! Forget it, use these gold coins as evidence of guilt, let everyone know this
What a guy!"
When he thought that it was only through his own efforts that Wade's true identity was exposed, Roger felt that he was really an upright and noble person. As for the gold coins that were put into the upgrade warehouse, he had long ignored them.
Roger was deeply encouraged by the harvest from the first box, and he quickly opened the second box. However, this box was not full of gold coins, only a crystal the size of a fist.
"It's a magic crystal!" Roger, who had seen the world, immediately recognized what it was.
Compared with the box of gold coins, Roger was more interested in the magic crystal. He quickly picked up the magic crystal and looked at it carefully, and immediately found that the shape of the magic crystal was like an oversized eyeball, especially the upright pupils, which were very realistic.
It reflects a breathtaking light under the firelight.
"Harpy magic crystal!" As soon as Roger understood the appearance of this magic crystal, the castle hub excitedly shouted: "Although it is only a minor harpy magic crystal, it is enough for us to build a super shooting range.
, you are so lucky!”
"Of course, there is a saying in my hometown, 'Good people are rewarded'!" This unexpected gain also made Roger very happy, and he couldn't help but boast proudly: "For a good person like me, even if
It’s not surprising to find a giant dragon’s magic crystal, let alone a minor harpy…”
The Harpy is a high-level bronze monster. This kind of flying monster is best at using its feathers as sharp as knives as weapons, shooting them down from high in the sky like sharp arrows to attack the enemy. It is a monster that is very difficult to deal with. However, their magic
Crystal is an indispensable material for building a high-level shooting range. Ever since he upgraded the castle to level three, Roger has been worrying about how to get the Harpy's magic crystal. He didn't expect to find something like this in Wade's cellar.
The good stuff naturally made Roger very happy.
However, the Castle Master would not believe what Roger said, and immediately retorted: "Are you a good person? Why didn't I come out? I don't know who just sent Wade's gold coins into the warehouse..."
"You know nothing." Roger, who was exposed, showed no guilt at all, but retorted plausibly: "Wade framed me several times, why shouldn't I ask him for mental damages? I only took half a box.
It’s just gold coins, which is still a small amount! Do you know how much damage my pure heart has been hurt?”
"Tch!" The Castle Master sneered at Roger's shamelessness. Just as he was about to find some more words to reveal his true colors, Chris was already above and asked worriedly: "Sir, are you okay?"
The knight's voice interrupted the conversation between Roger and the Castle Commander. Roger quickly responded loudly: "I'm fine. I found evidence of Wade's corruption!"
When the two knights carried half a box of heavy gold coins to the military camp, the soldiers who were still somewhat suspicious of Wade's crime immediately burst into an uproar. Everyone knew how much the garrison captain was paid, and there was actually something in Wade's cellar.
It goes without saying where it came from to hide such a large sum of money.
To the soldiers guarding the pass, Wade's embezzlement of combat supplies was tantamount to risking everyone's lives. This was something the soldiers could not tolerate, and soon someone began to shout loudly: "This bastard actually embezzled
So much money, hang him, hang him!"
"If these guys knew that there were only half of the gold coins here, would they be more noisy than now?" Roger, who witnessed this scene, couldn't help but thought to himself: "Now the guilt of that guy Wade has been confirmed.
It’s useless to argue!”
At the angry shouts of the soldiers, Roger quietly left the barracks. All he wanted was for Wade to be punished. As for whether the guy was hanged or had his head chopped off, it made no difference to Roger. At the moment
The overall situation has been decided, and there is no need for Roger to stay here any longer.
Three days later, Roger, who had recovered from his injuries, left Lington Pass and headed for Mandos City, the capital of the Kingdom of Thorne, to meet King Fernando Alonso III in accordance with the order conveyed by Massa.
Roger led the two knights and other men along the road for a long distance, and could even reach the majestic Lington Pass behind him. However, he knew very well that he would not be trapped in the small Lund Peninsula and Lington again in the future.
Pass, there is a bigger world ahead waiting for you to conquer.
"Goodbye, Lunde Peninsula..." A warm breeze passed over Roger's face, and also blew away the faint sigh in his heart.
