"This is impossible!" Royce's first reaction was that the butler was talking nonsense. [] However, when he asked more escaped servants, his face gradually turned pale.
Everyone pointed out in unison that the Lord had been killed, and they saw the Viscount's body with their own eyes. This cruel reality forced Royce to admit that he had failed completely this time.
Because of his negligence and the serious consequences of the lord's murder, Royce had no doubt that he would be deprived of his knighthood and even thrown into prison. The hopeless future and deep frustration made Royce lose his mind.
Losing his mind, he angrily shouted at the officer beside him: "Immediately order the entire army to launch a general attack. We must kill all these bastards to avenge the lord!"
Soon, the soldiers were reorganized to launch an attack. This time Royce stood at the front of the team, acting as a vanguard. He knew that his future had been ruined, and he just wanted to kill a few more enemies.
Letting out the tightness in the chest.
However, this attack did not encounter any resistance. Royce was the first to successfully climb the wall of the Viscount Mansion. Ross, who was about to start a killing spree, was surprised to find that not only was there no enemy on the wall, but also
There was no sign of enemy activity in the entire Viscount Mansion.
Reluctant, Royce thought that the enemy had retreated into the Viscount's Mansion, and immediately led the soldiers to attack. However, the situation in the big house was the same as outside. Except for corpses scattered everywhere, not even a single living person could be found.
.Those who fought fiercely with the city defense forces before
The enemy just disappeared out of thin air, leaving no trace behind. If it weren't for the shocking corpses on the ground, and even the lord fell in a pool of blood, everyone would probably think that they just had a dream, and everything was gone.
It's just an illusion.
"What on earth is going on?" Royce's desperate shout rang out over the Viscount Palace. Unfortunately, no one could answer his question.
Roger, the instigator of the whole incident, was currently riding on his Nightmare Beast, holding Bonnie's slim waist and affectionately lingering with the female knight.
Although Royce has ordered all city gates to be closed to prohibit any entry or exit, he has mobilized most of the city defense troops to attack the Viscount Mansion. How can the remaining few defenders stop Roger and Bonnie? The two of them.
After pretending to be released prisoners and leaving the Viscount's Mansion, they easily rushed out of Karachi. At this time, "the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly", and nothing could stop the two from returning to Kent Town.
As for the soldiers who disappeared, they were naturally taken back to the secondary space of the castle by Roger. To him, every soldier was precious, and there was no need to waste it on such a meaningless battle.
"I told you a long time ago, it would be easy for me to deal with people like the Wood family who do not know how to live or die." Roger hugged Bonnie's strong and slender waist from behind, and whispered in her ear: "
This time we have completely dealt with the Wood family, so we don’t have to worry about someone always coming to the territory to cause trouble!"
Her ears were tickled by the hot air blowing from Roger's mouth. Bonnie tilted her head uncomfortably and said, "Yes, you are the only one who is very powerful. You use your intrigues to bring chaos to the city of Karachi. The Wood family
It’s really unlucky to offend you.”
Although Bonnie said so, she actually admired Roger very much. He was able to lead a few hundred people to turn the heavily guarded city of Karachi upside down, and even kill the opposing lord and his son. Such a record is enough to make anyone
People are convinced.
Roger did not agree with Bonnie's statement, and said with some dissatisfaction: "This is not called a conspiracy, this is called a strategy, a strategy! If you talk nonsense again in the future, hehe!"
Before Roger finished speaking, his big hand climbed up to Bonnie's towering chest from behind, and squeezed it gently. The sensitive part of her chest was suddenly attacked, causing Bonnie to let out a moan involuntarily, and she almost fell out of her nightmare.
The beast fell off its back.
Fortunately, with Roger protecting her from behind, the female knight did not fall. But even so, Bonnie was completely limp and had no strength at this time. She could only lean on Roger's broad and strong chest and let his big hands move her.
Something happened to me...
Roger and Bonnie returned to Kent Town smoothly. The two did not say where they had been during the time they left, and the others also tacitly agreed not to ask any more questions.
After a few days of training, Lisa's injuries have healed. The idle girl can finally come out of the castle, and she still serves Roger with all her heart every day as before. Although Roger doesn't want Lisa, who has just recovered from her injury, to be too busy.
She was overtired and had told the girl several times to get more rest, but Lisa stubbornly played the role of his personal maid, so Roger had no choice but to let her go.
Just a few days after Roger returned to Kent Town, businessman Cage also returned to the town. In addition to bringing back many of his own goods, he also bought back a lot of materials that Roger asked him to purchase.
With these precious materials, coupled with the good things looted from Wood, Roger finally met all the conditions needed to upgrade the castle to level four.
The castle is the foundation for Roger to settle down in this world. Of course he will not take it lightly and immediately let the castle hub start upgrading work. This trip to Karachi allowed Roger to collect a lot of soul power. After starting to upgrade the castle, he also
There was excess. Roger asked the Castle Commander to use this part of the soul power to train soldiers to supplement the strength lost in the battle in Karachi.
During this trip to Karachi, Roger eliminated his covetous neighbors and secured an opportunity for peaceful development in his territory. More businessmen gathered in Kent Town to do business, making the town more prosperous. It turned out that even a cup of
What's going on in Kent Town where you can't even buy good wine?
There are all kinds of things, and you can even see specialties from other continents. Roger also persuaded the Hammer Dwarves to open a "Hammer Weapon Store" in the town. Just because of the reputation of the dwarf products, it attracts a large number of people every day.
Many merchants came to trade, which also brought more popularity and tax revenue to the town.
The vineyards outside the town have also developed a lot. The grapevines are growing well after being sprayed with chemicals to help them grow. They have begun to bear fruit. It won't be long before Roger can start brewing the first batch of wine. The logging farm in Green Sea Forest
The mines with the dwarves continuously provided wood and stone, so Roger did not have to worry about these two materials that were used the most in building the castle.
In short, after the destruction of the Wood family, Roger's territory ushered in a rare stage of peaceful development, and all aspects were developing in a good direction. Roger finally enjoyed the treatment that a lord should have, and rarely lived a peaceful life.
It was a relaxing and worrying day.
But Roger didn't know yet that just as his territory was developing prosperously, a violent storm was brewing in the distant capital of the kingdom, Mandos. The big bosses of the kingdom were quarreling over the destruction of the Wood family, and every day
Each group of people has its own method, and it has reached the point of tension.
Although a group of people headed by Military Minister Vatel did not say it explicitly, they still pointed the finger at Roger, accusing him of being inextricably linked to the massacre of the Wood family. According to them,
The territory closest to Karachi is Roger's territory, and the two sides have had conflicts before, so Roger is most likely to do this.
However, Grand Duke Hamilton insisted on denying this statement. Their reason was that Wattle and others could not provide any evidence to prove that this incident was related to Roger.
This is also thanks to Roger who did the whole thing very beautifully and left no useful clues at all. The Privy Council, the Military Ministry and even the Senate sent people to Karachi to investigate, but they did not find any useful clues.
Evidence. Hamilton's group also seized on this point to support Roger. At the same time, they pointed out that if a noble was accused just for such a ridiculous reason, then if a lord in any place was killed in the future, would it mean that the surrounding territories
Is the lord above the murderer?
Both sides had their own reasons and argued endlessly on this matter. Under the influence of Jenson Button and his family, the Senate tended to believe that this matter was related to Roger; while King Alonso III was obviously biased towards Hamilton's side.
, insisting that the reputation of a noble cannot be slandered without conclusive evidence.
However, the king's authority in the kingdom is currently limited. Even though Alonso III has made his position clear, Vatel and others and the Senate are still unwilling to give up and insist on punishing Roger severely.
Seeing that the situation was developing in a direction that was not conducive to Roger, Anna was looking for someone to send a message to Roger to let him escape the Kingdom of Thorne, but something unexpected happened. Master Vader of the Magician's Guild suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
It is announced that Baron Roger Lee of the Thorne Kingdom has been awarded the title of "Erudition" by the Magicians' Guild and has become the honorary vice president of the Thorne Kingdom branch of the Magicians' Guild!
As soon as this news came out, everyone was shocked. The old men of the Magician's Guild all had eyes on their foreheads. How had they ever seen them attach so much importance to a little-known little baron?
His title of Honorary Vice President?
Except for Jenson Button, no one knew that the Magicians Guild valued Roger so much simply because he could skillfully interpret the ancient elves. However, for whatever reason, the Magicians Guild made such a clear stance, which made those who originally planned to
The people Roger chased and beat became silent.
The Magician's Guild has always been the most powerful union on the continent, and even the entire Kingdom of Thorne would find it difficult to compete with them. What's more, there are many people in the kingdom who support Roger, and Watter and others naturally dare not continue
He persisted in this matter and blatantly dealt with Roger.
But of course Vettel would not give up and quickly came up with new tricks.
