Chapter 109 The Rat Road is Difficult

Russell did not leave Fluorescence Castle empty-handed. The baron and his wife prepared a carriage full of supplies for him to take back.

And there are also a large number of magic potions to supply Russell with his needs for the next training.

"You concentrate on your cultivation. If you need anything, just tell your mother." Mrs. Meryl carefully arranged Russell's collar. "Your father made you a lord and gave you the status of a noble. Your mother has nothing to give, but you have the resources to practice. It’s still affordable.”

"Thank you mother, my son will always love you." Russell and Mrs. Meryl hugged each other. It may have been staged, but it was indeed from the heart.

Many aristocratic families would pass on their resources to the eldest son, leaving the second son to work outside.

There are not many people like the Baron and his wife who still care deeply about their second son.

After letting go of his mother, Russell looked at Baron Roman, who seemed to be ready to hug Russell.

But Russell just smiled and bowed to his father: "Father, I do the same to you."

Baron Roman waved his hand: "You brat, let's go!"

The carriage started, and Russell got on the horse, closely followed by the golden and silver wolf dog Kevin and the red-eyed rat king.

After walking out of the big arch in front of the castle, Charles looked back at the towering castle and couldn't help but sigh: "Sir, the Fluorescent Fungus family is the most loving aristocratic family I have ever seen. The Baron and his wife love you more than most parents in the world. .”

"Yeah, I think so too." Russell looked up at the sky. Above the sky, Sir Ross was walking around, making "chirp" sounds from time to time.

He expanded his chest and said: "That's why I have to cheer up, manage the Black-rumped Snake Manor well, and guard the southern gate of Youguang Valley. If Roland achieves something in the future and expands his territory, I can also take the lead for him. "

"Do you hope that Master Roland will succeed in riding the dragon?" Charles asked in a low voice.

In my memory, my predecessor had complained to Charles many times, complaining that his room could not see Lord Ross most of the time, while Roland's room faced the tower where Lord Ross liked to squat most.

Obviously, the predecessor has never forgotten Lord Ross and wants to ride a dragon all the time.

This is understandable. As a descendant of a dragon family, how could he not regard riding a dragon as the pinnacle goal of his life.

Even a mortal would dream of riding a dragon.

But at this moment, Russell has already changed his soul, and his mentality has naturally changed dramatically.

He responded calmly: "Teacher Charles, maybe you won't believe it. As the second son of the family, I have already gained too much. There are differences between elders and younger ones. This is the basis of the inheritance of the aristocratic system, so I will no longer be jealous of Roland. .”

"I believe you." Charles smiled.

Russell continued: "I sincerely hope that Roland can get the recognition of Lord Ross and lead the Fluorescent Mushroom family to a higher position. As for myself, I also have ambitious goals, and I am working hard towards it."

"I believe that you can achieve your lofty goals." Charles took off his hat on horseback, "And I am also willing to follow you and work hard for your lofty goals... Maybe I can't compare to Eric's fighting ability, but please Don't worry, sir, I will properly manage the manor territory."

"Follow?" Russell caught the blind spot.

Charles responded calmly: "Of course, following your master and becoming your follower has always been my expectation."

After a pause, he continued: "I just haven't found the right opportunity. And today, at this moment, the sunset is about to set, and the afterglow is shining on the earth. Maybe it is the opportunity that I have been looking forward to."

"Haha!" Russell laughed.

Charles asked loudly: "Sir, do you need me to dismount and swear?"

"No, Charles, the loyalty ceremony of followers is not on the surface, but in the heart. We have known each other for many years, you understand me, and I understand you." Russell did not let the team stop, but pulled out his green ceramic sword.

He turned around on horseback, put the tip of his sword on Charles's shoulder, and tapped three times on both sides, completing an extremely simple allegiance ceremony for his followers.

Recover the green ceramic sword.

In theory, Russell and Charles have become true kings and subjects, and this is also a contract that will be watched by the dragon.

Those who are loyal share the glory.

Those who betray will be spurned by the dragon.

However, after completing the followers' allegiance ceremony, it did not affect the tacit understanding between Russell and Charles. They could still tease and joke with each other, as if they were more friends than leaders and subordinates, and Charles even became more calm.

Before he followed, he was still a little nervous, but now he is completely relaxed. He even spoke in a pornographic tone: "The territory of Baron Swan is the most suitable for raising cattle, so bullfighting competitions are held every year on the banks of Swan Lake. It just so happens that Baron Quimbieff likes to eat cattle pills, so it is stipulated that the meat of the defeated cow must be eaten every time. Cut off the pill and eat it..."

"and then."

"After a bullfight, Baron Quimbieff suddenly noticed that today's pills were smaller and asked why. Do you know what the servant answered?"

"How did you answer that?"

"The servant replied, Master, it's not the bull who loses every time. Today, the bullfighter lost... hahahahahaha..." After Charles finished speaking, he burst into laughter.

Although it wasn't very funny, Russell still laughed: "Haha..."

As the sun was about to set, two horsemen and a carriage finally rushed back to the Black-waisted Snake Manor.

Eric has been waiting in the manor courtyard.

Seeing Russell and his entourage return safely, he felt relieved and said, "Kevin and the Red-Eyed Rat King had a smooth trip, right?"

"Don't worry, everything is fine." Russell understood what he was worried about. After all, the Red-Eyed Rat King has not yet made a contract, so beware of its possible recurrence.

"That's good, sir, I'll take my leave now."

"Don't leave in a hurry. Go back after dinner."

"promise."

During dinner, Russell specially made extra meals for Kevin and Red Eye, and then arranged for Red Eye to live in a new rat kennel specially built for him - right next to the golden wolf dog Kevin's kennel.

When it was time to go to bed, before Russell could lie down, he heard Kevin barking outside.

Then Hongyan also made a chirping sound.

"Go down and see what these two phantom beasts are doing." Russell was not at ease, so he got up and went downstairs to check out the situation.

After a quick look, I realized that Red Eyes had driven some mice from nowhere.

It is a phantom beast that evolved from a mouse, and has the identity of the Rat King. It can naturally drive ordinary rats and help them find food.

But Kevin was obviously dissatisfied with this and did not allow Red Eye to take the mouse home, destroying the environment of the manor's courtyard.

"Wang Wang!"

"Jiji!"

"Okay, stop here." Russell scolded the two phantom beasts and dispersed them to prevent them from fighting.

Then he looked at Hongyan and the trembling little mice behind him.

The group of big rats that Hongyan worked so hard to cultivate in the cave have been made into rat meat and dried in the courtyards of every serf household. So he could only drive away a few unattractive little mice from nearby.

"Red Eyes, don't attract rats to the manor. On the contrary, there are rats here, and you have to be responsible for driving them away."

"Jiji!" Hongyan was a little reluctant.

As the King of Rats, he couldn't even take in a few of his little brothers. How could he be a lonely rat? There would be no pomp when he went out.

Russell patted its head: "Anyway, there can't be rats in the manor's courtyard. Of course, you are the rat king, and driving rats is your talent, and I will not restrain you. In this way, if nothing happens on weekdays, I will allow you Go to the catacombs and form your team of rats.”

At the same time, Russell made another agreement with Hongyan: "But you must restrain your younger brothers, and even the rats in the entire Black-rumped Snake Manor, not to destroy crops or steal food... If you really want to eat, you can go outside to eat."

"Chiji." Hongyan understood.

Then he drove away the little mice behind him with some reluctance. Watching the little mice disappear into the night, he felt a little depressed.

Russell narrowed his eyes and suddenly thought that he might be able to use the talent of the Red-Eyed Rat King instead of just letting it restrain the rats from eating.

"Red Eyes is the Rat King... If I had an army of rats, they would be in the caves, or even the entire Netherlight Valley..."
