Farming Road from Baron to Emperor

Chapter 1 Father's Death
Glorious Continent, Holy Empire, Principality of Artem, Iris Collar.

The sun was hanging in the western sky, casting a yellowish afterglow on the low castle, as if to herald misfortune.

Charles was staying in the study, lazily reading some idle books, killing the long and boring time.Charles was originally in the university dormitory, turned on the air conditioner, ate watermelon, and suddenly passed out. When he woke up again, he found that the world had changed drastically. To be precise, he had time-traveled.

A few days before Charles came here, he had no mobile phone, no computer, and was so bored that he almost went crazy. Later, he unexpectedly found out that cultivation can be practiced in this world. He was overjoyed. It turned out that cultivation is equal to fitness. After persisting for a few days, he found that I am not such a material, so I should lie down with peace of mind, marry a noble lady, and leave the family's rise plan to the next generation.

Suddenly, the door of the study was pushed open, and the housekeeper, Rocky, rushed in in a panic, and said in grief, "Young master, the master has passed away."

Xia Er suddenly stood up from the chair, as if struck by thunder, he swayed, and supported the table with both hands, so as not to let himself fall down.He refused to believe it, and muttered to himself: "How did my father die, it's impossible, impossible."

Luo Ji continued sadly: "I heard from those who escaped, that they were walking on the road, and suddenly a group of robbers rushed out. Without saying a word, they rushed to kill the master. Although the master wanted to escape, it was too late..."

Charles' face was a little numb, and he wanted to cry but didn't know where it came from.After listening to Loki's words, Qiang Zuo found that this group of people didn't look like robbers at all. This was obviously a premeditated assassination.

But Shire was a little puzzled. Although they recently discovered a fine gold mine in their territory, his father didn't even mine it, so he immediately reported it. Why was his father still killed?
After his father was killed, he was the only one left in the Iris family. If this group came here for the fine gold mine, they would definitely not let him go.

When the two were at a loss, a servant came in and said to Charles, "Master, the political officer Muniz is here to visit."

Munis did not wait at the door for the servant to lead him in as usual. As soon as the servant finished speaking, Munis had already entered the study.

Muniz said to Charles, "Young master, please forgive me."

Charles nodded to show that he understood.

"Master, I don't know if I should say something." Before Charles could speak, Muniz continued: "Master's murder was definitely not done by robbers, and I'm worried that their next target will be you, Master. "

Charles also thought of this, and said with some concern: "Then what should I do?"

"The young master might as well go to Earl Tulip in person. The master just reported the news of the fine gold mine to him, but he was intercepted and killed by robbers when he returned home. The Earl will definitely not sit idly by."

Only he and his father knew about the fine gold mine, how did he know about it.Although he had some doubts, Charles first pretended to agree.

"Young master can't delay, it's better to set off tonight, those people will never think of it. When they react, I'm afraid we have already arrived in Tulip Town."

Charles was even more sure that there must be something wrong with Muniz, and he must not go out tonight. Going out is tantamount to death.So Shire said perfunctorily: "On the way to the wilderness, I have to prepare some food. Everything will be ready in a few days, and it will not be too late to start."

"Master, you can't delay, if this group of people takes advantage of the trend to surround the castle, then you will be in danger, young master."

"Mr. Muniz, but I can't see anything at night. Besides, I must be protected by knights along the way. It won't be too late to start again in a few days."

Munis was a little annoyed, and wanted to take advantage of Shire's loss of mind and persuade him to go out tonight, but he would not be fooled.What he said earlier was too explicit, so he shouldn't notice it.

Muniz took advantage of the situation and said, "Young Master, I was the one who didn't think carefully, so I'll go back and make preparations first."

Charles nodded, and Muniz left.

Seeing that Muniz had left, Rocky wanted to remind Charles: He felt that something was wrong with Muniz tonight.

Seeing that Loki wanted to speak, Charles shook his head. He suspected that someone in the castle had been bribed, otherwise the news of the Adamantite Mine would not be leaked out, and it would not be safe to talk here.

Upon seeing this, Loki understood Shire's concerns, and bid farewell to Shire. He wanted to go and check tonight to see if there were any villains in the castle.

When Xia Er was thinking hard about how to escape the catastrophe in front of him, the black stone hanging around his neck suddenly turned into a puddle of liquid, and then entered his body, and at the same time, a message emerged in his mind.

This black stone suddenly appeared when he crossed over. At that time, he was extremely excited and muttered: "Traveler, how can there be no golden fingers." However, it turned out that he was thinking too much.

He shouted all kinds of prophecies at that time, but none of them worked.Trying to recognize the Lord with a drop of blood, but got a wound.However, it now shows that he really thinks less, this time he is on the first floor.The information in his mind told him that this black stone was a divine stone, and it would only work if he became a lord.

When he came back to his senses, Charles felt his body was greasy, and the vindictiveness in his body gushed out from the inside of his body and flowed around inside his body.Charles became very playful, and moved him to his hand. A black film formed on the surface of the palm, as if wearing a pair of gloves.With a strong wave, it was as sharp as a knife, and cut off a corner of the table in an instant.

This is the function of the god stone, I love it.

The path of cultivation of the traveler,

Work hard to become an Earth Knight (X)

Lay down and equal golden finger (√).

Moreover, the divine stone has the effect of washing the marrow and cutting the bones, not only forcing out the impurities in his body, but also refining his fighting spirit to a very pure level.

Charles asked the maid to prepare hot water. After a while, Charles entered the bathroom, took off his clothes, and leaned against the bathtub, his tense emotions were relieved.

Through the information sent to him by the god stone just now, he found that the god stone not only has these functions, but also can be used to control the luck in the territory, and the god stone can be fused, which means that he can continue to absorb the god stone.

……

Besides, Muniz, after he got home, he stood by the window, the room was very deserted, his wife and children had already left the iris collar, and he was the only one left in the room, but he was about to leave soon .

In the evening, there was a sudden knock on the door. Muniz walked over to open the door, only to see two short men standing at the door.Among them, Huck, who is slightly taller, and the shorter one, Ryan.

Huck said impatiently: "When will that brat leave, the brothers can't wait any longer."

Muniz said: "I just came out of the castle. Although he was in a panic at the time, when I proposed to go to Earl Tulip for help tonight, he didn't go. I was worried that he would suspect me and was going to be in the castle. hide in."

As soon as Munis finished speaking, Huck changed his face in an instant: "Things that are not enough to succeed and fail to succeed, you can't handle these things well, what use are you for?" If Charles doesn't come out in the castle, They can only attack the castle, maybe they all have to die here, and more importantly, he has to join the battle.

Muniz's complexion also darkened, and he was very upset. Both of them were equals, so what qualifications did he have to point out.What's more, he is still an earth knight.

But Munis suppressed his temper and said: "It's a big deal, you deserve to be so angry. In two days, I will lure the knight commander Les away and say that the master's death is a little bit of a clue. Even if he doubts it, he will definitely come. , then you will attack the castle."

I saw him walking up and down, cursing and swearing, and finally said helplessly: "Okay, just do it like this, and you will lure him away when the time comes."

I'm sorry, young master, if you want to blame, you, Fu Bo, shouldn't have found fine gold mines in your territory.It turned out that Muniz was a spy who had been planted. After the original political officer "accidentally died", he became a political officer. He was usually responsible for delivering news and so on. He lived a stable and prosperous life. He really didn't want to break such a life. .

While everyone was discussing, the dwarf Ren suddenly hissed and said softly: "There are steps, someone is coming."

Muniz was a little flustered. Huck stared at the door viciously, holding the dagger at his waist with his right hand, ready to stab the door as soon as it opened.

The two of them also heard the sound of footsteps. In this empty evening, the footsteps were particularly crisp. The sound came closer and closer to the door, and then there was a knock on the door, followed by: "Lord Munis, I am the young master's servant. The young master invites you to the castle. The young master said that we will leave after dinner."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Muniz always felt that something was wrong, and Shire's transformation was too fast.Ren and Huck were overjoyed, things had turned around, and they might not have to attack that hard castle.

He winked at Munis, saw that Munis' eyes were wandering, obviously he didn't want to go, he took out the dagger, stared at Munis fiercely, as if saying, if you don't go, I will stab you to death, and Munis lost in the end After coming down, he nodded helplessly. Although Munis is an earth knight, his wife and children are all in the leadership of Clivia. How dare he not cooperate.

The two hid in the room, Munis opened the door, and the servant said: "Master Munis, the young master is waiting a little anxiously, why don't we leave now."

Munis glanced behind him and saw that there was no one following him, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, I will follow the young master's order."

On the way, Munis comforted himself. Usually, one day’s notice is required to invite guests to a dinner party. He insisted on asking me to come tonight in spite of noble etiquette. He must be very anxious and frightened himself.
