Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 18 16. New Goals
"Dear knights and citizens" Before the bonfire dinner, Rand convened everyone to give a speech again, "After nearly 10 days of trekking and hard work, we are finally out of danger. We can even say that our territory has A whole new development!"

"Thank you Lord Lante!" "Thank you Lord Lord!" The citizens smelled the delicious mutton, and of course they knew who brought it.

"I know, we are still on the Galloping Horse Plain, we are still facing the threat of barbarians,
But the situation is very different now, we have just proved that we can not only survive on the Galloping Horse Plain, but also defeat the barbarians! "Rand is also in high spirits at the moment.

"it is good"

"Leaders! We have the protection of the god of knights and magicians. I will lead you out of this grassland and back to the territory of galloping horses;
I'll find my father and brothers, and bring back our baron galloping;

We will eventually become the masters of the Benma Plain and restore the glory of our ancestors' Benma Kingdom! "

"For the glory of the Galloping Horse Kingdom!" Several knights took the lead in setting off the atmosphere.

"For galloping horses, for galloping horses!" The leaders rejoiced again.

Looking at the cheering crowd in front of him, Rand even felt that his strength had also strengthened, as if that strength had been strengthened in his soul and in his fighting spirit by all the leaders and knights.

The citizens kept repeating, even after entering the follow-up meal session, demon possessors or non-magic citizens continued to come to Lant to pay their respects.

"Rand? Come here" During the meal, Albert specially called Rand to the main tent.

"Uncle, what's the matter?" Rand was a little puzzled

"You said just now that you were going to save Huck and Ryan?" Albert asked.

"Of course, I guess that once they are captured, they should be in a certain tribe in the Galloping Horse Plain."

"They're probably in the salt mines, the barbarians need demons to mine the salt mines"

"I know this. I analyzed it this way. Father and the others may be in three places. The first is the camp where the barbarians went south, the second is the small tribe on the plain, and the third is the salt mine.

First of all, the camps going south can be excluded, so that the father and the others can escape easily, and the barbarians will not let the father run away, so the best way is not to let him go south, but go north.

The second is the salt mine. According to our previous inquiry, if the Gray Goose Tribe wants to transport the demon possessors of the human race to the salt mine, they need to ask a barbarian priest to help escort them.

But there are very few barbarian priests, and there are not many priests in the entire south of the Benma River. Gray Goose will definitely gather the existing priests to assist them in their southward sweep.

So their best choice now is to send my father and two elder brothers to some relatively large tribes on the plain to take care of them, so that even if my father can escape, he will not be able to return to the Dragon Kingdom in time. "

"..." Albert was silent for a long time, and it was obvious that Rand had fully considered all the possibilities, and then analyzed them one by one.

Even Albert himself could not provide more suggestions and possibilities. At this moment, Albert even doubted whether there is any blood relationship between Rand and Huck. Huck is indeed a little clever, but he has never shown such an analysis ability
"You're right. From this point of view, Huck and the others are most likely in a camp south of the Benma River."

"Yes, I think that if we do our investigation properly, we have a good chance of defeating the tribe with about 10 cavalry left behind. We can sweep eastward along the Benma River. If there are casualties, we can return to the west. At worst, we can go back to the original river." Go to Baron Galloping Horse's territory." Rand had already made a plan.

"Okay, I will discuss your decision with the knights"

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

On the night of September 996, 9, the citizens of Rand and the Barony of Galloping Horse were enjoying the celebration after the victory, while a few hundred kilometers to the east, several knights were enjoying a short rest after escaping.

"Father, what should we do now?" It was Ryan Benma, Rand's eldest brother, the eldest son of the Baron Benma, and the future baron who spoke
"What else can I do, of course, go south and return to the Dragon Kingdom," Baron Huck Galloping Horse said. At this moment, they had just escaped from a large barbarian camp.

"Father, you were so powerful just now, I didn't expect you to be able to use grudge here!" Rand's second brother, Obote, was relatively young and was still reminiscing about the battle just now.

"This is an ancient and expensive technique. It was explored by the galloping horse royal family in hundreds of years of battle. Every time it is used, magic crystals are consumed. It can be said to be krypton crystal tactics." Huck felt helpless, The two magic crystals in his underwear were his trump cards, and he didn't use them even in the battle when he was captured, but now he used them all up in order to escape.

Although there are two horses to ride now, they really have no cards.

"Father, what do you think is going on in the territory now? Are Rand and Albert alright? Has Walker gone back?" Ryan is the heir to the territory, so he is naturally concerned about his future.

"We still have two days to go, don't think about these useless things. This time we were betrayed by that bastard Bob Rott, which caused the territory to be in danger.

As long as I can see the Earl, I believe he will not let the Baron of Galloping Horse be revoked! "Huck said firmly, but he had no idea in his heart after all.

"Really?" Now even Obote cares about the territory
"Of course, you have to trust Albert, once he returns to the territory, he will take everyone to the big forest.

We had already made preparations before we set off, and we would be able to enter the forest in less than a day. I didn't take away Luo Er and Iron Cone, just to preserve some strength." Iron Cone is another enfeoffment knight in the territory, and his son is also a reserve knight .

Suddenly, the father and son fell silent.At this moment, the hearts of the three people are all on the territory, but they know that now they must rush to Blue Magpie Castle and join the Earl's Knights. Only by making achievements in the battle against the barbarians can they offset the possible crisis of being revoked.

There are three bright moons above, and the father and son are riding a black horse, galloping towards the mountain pass in the south.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

In the lord's room of Rothland Castle, Gray Goose leader Dama Jindao sits on the lord's bed. There are several women under him. They are all the blood relatives of Bob's former lord and his son's favorite concubines and Bob's illegitimate son. Well, these women were tortured for an afternoon by the Gray Goose leader in front of their illegitimate children, and now they have no strength to move.

Now the leader of Gray Goose was looking at the illegitimate child on the wall opposite the bed with great interest. The illegitimate child had also been beaten up by the barbarian warriors all afternoon, so he lost the strength to roar.

"How about it? Have you thought about it? How to open the magic circle in the secret room in the cellar? As long as you tell me, you and them won't have to suffer from this."

The gray goose leader walked up to the bastard and looked at him playfully, whispering in his ear like a devil.

At this moment, the illegitimate son really wanted to use all his strength to die with this barbarian man who was half a meter taller than him, but at this moment, his eyes were only on the elder sister who was lying on the ground and had taken care of him for more than ten years.

Twenty minutes later, the Gray Goose Chief and the High Priest finally opened the door to the storage room in the basement of the castle.

Every powerful noble family will build a magic storage room underground in the castle. The operating principle is very similar to the magic sealing box, but dozens of magic circles are needed.

Of course, the role of the room is to store magic items, and it can also prevent fire and theft.

The nobles usually choose a demon possessor of the same clan as the person in charge of keeping the storage room, and Bob's bastard son is such a person.

A standard gold coin box of the Fortune Church (a branch of the Temple Alliance) can store 1000 gold coins, a gold coin box can store 10000 gold coins, and a magic crystal storage box can store 100 magic crystals. Now in front of the leader, there are 3 gold coins There are 4 gold coin boxes and 3 magic crystal boxes.

In addition, there are dozens of magic pattern boards and various magic props, enchanted weapons, magic scrolls, magic slates, magic books and so on.Even the leader of Gray Goose, who has been wealthy in recent years, is also dazzled by this golden and glittering scene.

"Is this... the wealth of a human viscount...?" The high priest was shocked and speechless.

"No, this is the proceeds from black scaled horses sold by our tribe over the past few years. This liar actually withheld so much!" The gray goose leader looked at the wealth and kept drooling. He decided to use words to make the robbing of the wealth easier It should be more logical.

Of course, a viscount can't afford 3 gold coins. In fact, most of the gold coins here are the deposits from various families in the capital to order black scaled horses from Root, and the deposits from several nearby territories to buy salt and pig iron from Root. A deposit for an order of enchanted armor by nobles.

In the coming winter, Viscount Bob will rely on the money to buy a lot of food, rune tablets and alchemy items and send them to the Galloping Horse Plain in the spring.

Of course the present Gray Goose Chief obviously doesn't know the difference between costs and profits, and even if he knew he would still keep the wealth for himself.

"Then what shall we do with the money?"

"Let's put it here first, you don't know our group of cavalry, who can resist such a temptation?" The Gray Goose leader knew everything about his own people.

"Let that illegitimate child take care of it?"

"Of course, who else can open this door?"

"And those women?"

"Give it back to him, I have already promised him, bring the girl he cares about the most with us, and leave a few people here to watch him."

"But this person knows too many things." The high priest was not at ease.
"My high priest, we didn't come here this time to grab this vote and leave. We will get many people like him in the future, so we have to give them something to look forward to." The gray goose leader didn't know how rich the viscount was, but he know human nature.

"you're right"

"Tell the cavalry outside not to be idle, and immediately go to the various knight territories along the border of Rotor's territory. Now they only have demon possessors and no knights. There is no need for us to make a special trip."

"Ok"

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

On the night of September 996, 9, the Emperor of God, the order of the leader of Gray Goose was passed on to dozens of barbarian cavalry. Like a storeroom with its door wide open, it awaits the arrival of the Gray Goose Tribe.

In the dim moonlight, in many dwellings in the small town of Rott Territory, many non-demons are about to move. They know that the barbarians are reveling in the castle, and now is the best time for them to leave to bring news to the main house.Many people quietly swam east across the boundary river, heading towards Maned Wolf City, Elk Leader and even Dragon Tooth City.

At the moment, it is in the outskirts of the imperial capital, the headquarters of the Dianqian Division.The chief of the Dianqian Division was looking at the information collected from various places, and the students in front of him were waiting for his instructions respectfully.

"It seems that the current progress is exactly as we expected." The chief's tone was not without complacency.

"Yes, teacher. Now the gray goose tribe has eaten a baron and a viscount. Our people have seen the barbarian tribes gathering on the way back to the salt mine. Once these tribes are assembled, they will support them Gray Goose Front.

At that time, we will provoke the ambitious faction in the tribe to engulf the entire barbarian tribe and collide with the Maned Wolf Knights. "

"Both the barbarians and the maned wolf will suffer. Even if the legend of the blue dragon arrives to prevent the fall of the maned wolf city, the Dragon Kingdom will anger your majesty by watching the subordinates from the other side." The chief said the second half of his plan very happily, but when he When he noticed the pages of information in front of him again, he fell silent.

"What's the matter, teacher?"

"You..." The chief pointed to a piece of material, "Don't you think there is one person missing here?"

"Oh, the students also looked at the materials. The patriarch, eldest son, and second son of the Benma family were all captured. Only the four sons of the apprentice knight escaped successfully, and the bachelor of the territory?"

"Yes, Albert Benma." The Chief seems to have remembered something, "This man once went to the Imperial Capital to study, but he didn't have the potential to be a magician. He finally returned after staying in the Imperial Capital for a few years."

"This Albert is just a junior knight without inheritance rights, so he can't make any trouble."

"No, you can't look at the problem too mechanically. His Majesty and the Tower of Purity have been paying attention to the Galloping Horse Plain. This is his constant pain.

I remember that when Albert came to study, he was specially received by a certain legend. "

"Can it be related to the legend?"

"Yes, so don't underestimate these seemingly unimportant characters. Let the hidden stakes in Maned Wolf City find out clearly!"

"Yes, teacher, what should we do after we find someone?"

"Let the barbarians find him and redeem him again. People related to the legend must be cautious!"

"Yes!"

"Also, is there any news from His Excellency Ben Kaur?"

"No, Your Excellency has been away for a long time, but we have not been able to contact him, and he has not left a message for our people."

"It seems that he still doesn't believe me," the chief muttered.
