Lord: Exiled by Stepmother, I'll Rule the World Anyway

Chapter 16 The Grand Winery, the First Stronghold

"My lord, why do you look so embarrassed?" Ashina came over with a bow and arrow in her arms, a smile on her face, "It was obviously the most difficult period before arriving here, why do you look so embarrassed now?

Waving his hand, Field didn't want to spread anxiety and hit everyone who already lacked confidence. He showed a teasing expression and stretched out his hand to pinch Asuna's wolf ears: "It's not that it's embarrassing, I'm just struggling. Should I give it to the great hero who has worked so hard and accomplished so much? I’m doing the massage myself.”

"Hey, hey, hey?" Asheena's pretty face immediately turned red, her red eyes trembled like an earthquake, she stuttered and wanted to respond, but when she saw Field's amused child expression, she immediately understood that she was being teased, and immediately He said angrily, "Lord, you have gone too far. It's a shame that I still care about you, so I won't be with you anymore."

Field patted his sore neck: "Thank you for your concern, but it's time to find a place to stay. I don't want to sleep for a second in the carriage. The creaking noise gives me a headache."

It would be much better to occupy a house with shelter from the wind and rain, even if the houses here are in a state of decay.

After studying the map carefully, Field said: "Let's go and occupy the large winery, Ashina. The main structure there is made of bricks and stones, so it won't easily turn into a pile of ruins."

The large winery is located southeast of the main building, with a large area of ​​fertile farmland used to grow black pearl grapes for winemaking. Of course, acres of grape fields are a thing of the past. Today, there are only large areas of wriggling black tentacles and carrion corpses in the farmland.

Grapevines and grape trellises can be vaguely seen in the farmland. The land here produced the most famous black pearl wine in the empire.

"Women clean up the farmland and don't leave any dirt behind. These wriggling tentacles and pieces of flesh look scary, but they are actually not threatening." Field kicked open a ball of rotten flesh with seven or eight eyes, "These disgusting Things, before the gray fog came, were all cute little animals."

"Okay, my lord."

The slaves dillydallyed.

"It will be completed within two days. I will pay you ten copper coins as wages. These lands will be our food source in the future." Field released his ultimate move and allowed the slaves to have money.

The slaves' eyes lit up, and they quickly used farm tools to kill the corrupt creatures, and their work efficiency immediately increased tenfold.

Butler Perry rolled his eyes when he saw the appearance of the slaves: "I am so kind and generous, but if these bastards don't work, it would be more convenient to hang them directly."

At this time, the freedmen kidnapped by Field came over.

"Sir, you are too fanciful. The land has been poisoned. Even if all the monsters are cleared away, it will not be possible to cultivate." The villagers raised questions. Some people stamped their feet hard, and the soft land immediately sunk, forming a pool of purple water. "Look, it's like a swamp full of poison, oh! The damn smell is worse than the widow's crotch that hasn't been washed in three years."

When the slaves heard this, they all cast doubtful glances.

My kindness seems to make some people start to push their limits.

Field's eyes were lowered, and there was no emotion in his tone: "This is my order, I'm not negotiating with you."

The villagers were still loyal to the Bull Baron in their minds and did not change their ways for a while: "But it is meaningless for you to do this."

"Huh?" Field frowned, his eyes unkind.

Shanmao and other guards immediately drew their swords, and there was a sound of sword drawing. Even though Connor and others were the main force on this road, the slave guards were still tempered and had a hint of military chill.

Everyone whose eyes were struck by the sword light immediately realized that they were actually questioning their new lord! Suddenly, everyone was so frightened that they fell to the ground with sweat dripping from their backs.

The scene went cold for half a minute.

Field then waved his hand, not that he was deliberately trying to be imposing or feudal. But he has no foundation. In this land far away from order, if he can't control these guys, he should stop being a lord and find a place to hang himself.

"You also go and clean up. All the land in the east will be given to you. In addition, the idiots who say that I am whimsical will receive five whips." Field punished me with a small punishment but gave me a big warning. They must be used to develop and farm the land.

The villagers were already sweating profusely. When they heard Field's words, they immediately felt like they were being amnesty: "Yes, yes, yes."

Everyone began to eradicate the corruption, and the corrupted creatures burst into shrill screams in shock.

"It's so Cthulhu." Field took a few deep breaths of cold air and felt nauseated. He might go crazy after being in this cursed land for a long time. "We must ignite the fire of civilization quickly, let's start with the winery."

Two farmers holding torches opened the door of the winery, and a dark and putrid smell hit their faces. Field almost vomited out yesterday's dinner, covered his mouth and nose and glanced to the side.

"Be careful, there are a lot of footsteps on the second floor." Ashina had no abnormal reaction to the smell. She had lived in worse conditions during her days as a slave.

"We have to occupy this big room, and there may be flammable materials, so we can't use flames."

Asheina nodded obediently: "Leave it to me!"

Holding an iron-clad shield to protect his chest, Field drew out his sword: "Set up your halberd! Prepare for the impact."

There was no systematic training, but in these days of fighting, the guards had somehow figured out some tricks, and a small square formation was quickly formed. Field took a deep breath and banged the shield with the hilt of his sword: "Hey! Fellow fellow, our community is sending you warmth!"

"Roar!" The darkness was filled with the strange screams of ghosts crying and wolves howling.

Footsteps as dense as drum beats suddenly sounded, and an unrecognizable, twisted monster rushed out of the ink-like darkness, and the collision of flesh and iron immediately rang out.

Ashina, one person and one wolf, withstood the main force of the corpse group. The spear in her hand could easily harvest the corpses. The giant wolf was like a tank. It was covered by the corpses and turned into a corpse ball. It still didn't even break the defense. It wasn't that Field didn't let the dragon wolf breathe fire, the battle had been resolved at this moment.

"Ah! Goddess is on top!"

The guard standing in the front row pushed through a rotting corpse and staggered. Before he could stabilize his body, he was immediately knocked down by the carrion that followed. He was wearing armor and fell to the ground. All meat and vegetables.

With a low shout, Field took half a step forward and struck the rotten corpse's head hard with the long sword in his hand. This is not an anime. The blackness is three points stronger. The rotten corpse is just a monster in human skin. There is no armor protection. Wherever the sharp blade cuts, the muscles and bones are broken, and the entire head is removed.

"Thank...Thank you, sir!"

The guard stared with frightened eyes, his pants were wet and hot, he almost had a passionate kiss with the monster just now.

From the expression on his face that he wanted to kneel down and call him daddy, it was easy to see that he had never been so respectful and grateful to a nobleman.
