French knight lord: I have a skill panel

Chapter 26 The Concerns of Sheriff Eliot

In a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of February in the new calendar year 3797.

The weather has begun to gradually warm up, and the water of the Voro River, which has been frozen for more than two months, has begun to freeze again.

Everything slowly recovered, and the Voro Valley began to become alive again.

Volo City, in an attic of the City Hall.

Magistrate Eliot Eric sat on an office chair, staring at the almond tree that had just sprouted buds outside the window in a daze.

He was so muscular that the chair beneath his ass looked like a baby chair.With the shaking of the body, the chair creaked and creaked, as if it was about to fall apart at any moment.

Compared with his figure, his face was much smaller, with a long scar on the left cheek.The end of the scar is hidden in a thick brown beard.The overall look is very masculine.

After staring blankly for a while, Elliot picked up his pipe and began to puff.

His lung capacity was so great that he seemed to be able to suck half a pipe of shredded tobacco in one gulp, and thick smoke soon rose in the room.

"Cough cough."

Sheriff Joshua Nora entered the room, coughing immediately from the smoke.

She was wearing an exquisite gray velvet leather jacket, which perfectly set off her plump and sexy figure.The lower body is a pair of slim leather pants, plus a pair of boots.

"I swear I'll blow your pipe someday."

Joshua brushed his hair and said with a frown.

Eliot glanced at her, sighed slightly, put his thumb in the pipe, and extinguished it.

"Hmph, it's not too bad." Seeing that Elliott cared about her, Joshua showed a smile on her face. She unbuttoned the leather jacket, pulled the collar slightly outward, put her hands together in front of her chest, Adjusted the position of the chest, and then let out a long sigh of relief: "Old Walter's fur coat is too small, I can't breathe, I have to ask them to change it next time."

"If you don't want to wear it, I'll tear it off for you."

Elliott said softly without looking back.

Joshua rolled his eyes at him, and while adjusting the fashionable hairstyle he just made, he said, "Why are you so busy today, is there any result with Baron Hansen?"

"There's a fart result." Elliot snorted coldly: "Damn Baron Hansen, he treats the serfs in the manor like livestock, and he still has a few human lives on his hands. His enemy Vivolo There are more gnolls in the valley."

"Then what does our captain mean?"

"What can he mean? Hansen Manor is on the upper reaches of the Wallow River, in the valley to the east, where the birds don't shit. It takes four days to go back and forth. The last time I went, I passed by Charlotte. I was almost attacked by a jackal at Manor. After this new year, I don't plan to go again." Eliot shook his head and said.

Joshua shook his head and said with a smile: "At least he is a baron. If we don't investigate further, the captain will probably not agree to it. I think he will let you go again."

Elliot was silent for a while, and said loudly: "Are there still few nobles who died this year? The Hoffey Brotherhood alone assassinated three. Two days ago, news came that the blood hammer of the gnolls had killed Lun Manor and Jayce Manor. They were all looted, and both Lord Lun and Baron Jais were killed. Adding up these murders, the captain didn’t say anything.”

When Elliott said this, he suddenly became a little aggrieved: "The guards and the knights don't know what to eat. The Huffi Brotherhood can't be provoked, and the gnolls will not go to destroy them. There are murders every day throughout the Volo Valley. The lords of those manors are killing serfs and smuggling magic products all day long. It is simply lawless."

"The most outrageous thing is that the jackal dared to openly attack me as a law enforcement officer. I went to the captain to apply for leading a team to exterminate them, but he dismissed me casually because he couldn't find their camp. I came to Woluo City to rob, but I didn’t rob the heads of those gentlemen, so it doesn’t matter.”

Joshua heard Elliott's words getting more and more outrageous, and quickly interrupted: "Shut up! You don't want to do it anymore, do you?"

Elliot was a little aggrieved, and hammered the table heavily.

The next moment, the chair under his buttocks finally couldn't bear it, and it cracked open with a 'click'.

Elliott fell heavily to the ground, and then got up in a panic.

Joshua burst out laughing, and hurried up to hold Elliott's arm.

Feeling Joshua's soft body, Elliot's heart skipped a beat, then he shook off her hand and said, "Don't seduce me, I can't beat your husband."

Joshua was not annoyed, he covered his mouth and giggled a few times, and then comforted him: "Isn't it just being attacked by a wolf man, it depends on your anger."

"It's not you who almost lost your life!" Elliott muttered, and then his emotions slowly eased down.

Although he complained a few words to vent his emotions, he knew in his heart that the influence of the city hall was getting worse every year.

All the powerful knights in the city joined the Marquis Arnold of Black Rock City one after another.The guard at the town hall is somewhat inadequate to watch.

Moreover, everyone received the kingdom's salary and lived in Volo City, so there was really no need to go out and take risks.

After all, the tax collected from the lord is not as good as every year.

Today, the only ones capable of fighting against the Huffi Brotherhood and sweeping away the gnolls are Black Rock City and those great lords.

It's a pity that this has nothing to do with them, and they won't take it lightly.

After thinking for a long time, Elliot sighed again: "This job is getting more and more difficult to do, maybe one day I will go to Black Rock City."

"Don't." Joshua said immediately, "I still want to continue to be your colleague."

"Again, I can't beat your husband!" Elliott reiterated immediately.

The two were talking, when suddenly there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the guard came from outside the door: "Mr. Elliott, Lord Lomo Sardin of Sardin Manor is visiting, and it seems that he wants to talk about Hansen Manor and Gnolls For the matter, you come out to receive it."

"Sardin Manor?"

Elliot was taken aback when he heard the name.

This is an old manor, which is now very small. It seems that it was plundered by jackals last year, and it has no sense of existence in the Volo Valley.

He got up immediately and went to the reception room of the town hall.

I saw a young man wearing a gray wolf fur jacket sitting upright at the table.

His appearance is very upright, his expression is kind and calm, with an aristocratic elegance.The figure doesn't look stout, but it has an inviolable aura.

"This person should be a gentleman." Elliott made a preliminary judgment.

Seeing someone coming in, Luomo stood up, stretched out his right hand, and said in a friendly way: "Hello, I am Lord Saldin, Luomo Saldin."

"Hello. Sheriff Eliot Eric."

The two shook hands in a friendly manner. Elliott sat across from him and asked in a deep voice, "What is the purpose of Lord Sardin's arrival?"

With a friendly smile, Luomo said, "I heard that the city hall issued a reward order for the wolf man?"

Elliot was taken aback, nodded and said: "Yes. The gang of gnolls has caused great damage to the security and stability of the Volo River Valley. Any killing of gnolls will be rewarded by the city hall."

Luomo nodded, put a linen package on the table, and slowly opened it, revealing a huge head of a wolf man.

"I wonder how much this jackal is worth?" Luo Mo asked with a smile.
