Whistling Manor.

Fang Yuan and Knight Gray stood side by side, looking at the lord's manor not far away.

Although Frey built a huge villa as a symbol of his rule, he himself only occasionally came to collect taxes and vacations, and usually handed over the care of a few henchmen such as tax collectors and sheriffs.

"I've found out that it's the tax collector Jamal who is in charge of this territory for Sir Frey at this time!"

Gray said slowly: "He used to be an adventurer, and then he was recruited by Frey, and he should be the assassin who took office!" ”

"Assassin?"

Fang Yuan was slightly surprised, this was a more advanced profession than an ordinary assassin, although it was still far inferior to the Scourge Knight, but it was also a talent.

Being able to be recruited by Frey shows the other party's ability.

"However, the most powerful assassin is only relying on the environment to assassinate, and this is a fair battle!"

Knight Gray smiled, not at all worried.

Indeed, with the righteousness of the principality, plus two knights under the command of two knights, a team of close to a hundred people, if you can't take the manor in front of you, it will be a joke.

"In that case, let's get started!"

With a wave of his hand, the fifty soldiers under his command immediately lined up in a neat line and marched straight towards the manor.

"Let's keep up!"

Fang Yuan nodded, and Garth immediately followed behind him with the twenty people urgently summoned from the territory.

"Who?"

This situation immediately attracted the attention of the manor, and it didn't take long for a man to trot over and shout: "This is Sir Frey's territory, and everyone who comes is famous!" Otherwise, it will be regarded as a provocation! ”

"Common name?"

Gray sneered: "Under the command of Baron Shawshank, knight Gray, on the order of the Grand Duke, came to crusade against Frey, is it clear enough?" ”

Obviously, such an answer caused the other side to fall into a great shock.

The comers crawled back to the territory, and within a moment, a hurried bell rang.

"Knights of Rune, what are you going to do with these mobs?"

Gray looked at the militia gathered in the distance, most of them still farmers with pitchforks, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bring a playful smile.

In any case, these are also Fang Yuan's lords in the future, so they naturally want to give some face.

Of course, the definition of a mob already says about his tendencies.

"I heard...... That Sir Frey is very good at winning hearts and minds, and has a good reputation among the lower classes? ”

Fang Yuan suddenly asked.

"Indeed, because of the policy of splitting the rent and not raising taxes, he was even touted by the bard as the first wise lord of Stan!" Gray replied.

"I understand, please order a crackdown!"

Fang Yuan nodded: "I once heard a proverb, give him a gold coin a day, when you don't give it one day, you will be resentful, and if you give him a slap one day, if you don't give it one day, you will receive gratitude!" ”

In terms of buying people's hearts, he is no match for Baron Frey, who has been working hard for a long time.

In this case, the only way to do this is to tell these lords with iron and blood who is the master of this place.

The people's hearts are snobbish, even if thousands of families are born Buddhas, how long will they be remembered?

The so-called benevolent government can be carried out again in the future, and if you want to occupy the entire land at this time, you can only let go and kill, and use terror to show loyalty.

"Wise decisions, and wise proverbs!"

Gray laughed and whipped his horse: "Charge!" ”

It turns out that in front of specially trained soldiers, a group of farmers with pitchforks, no matter how much, did not have the slightest effect.

Not to mention, Gray only charged at random, and after overthrowing a few of the first farmers, the rest of the people were suddenly dominated by fear, and threw their pitchforks, leaving a messy battlefield, and just fled.

"The ancient feudal kings often thought that because they were destined to return, the people under them should be infinitely loyal - that was actually a dream! Such a naïve emperor often doesn't end well! ”

Fang Yuan, wearing light armor, also launched a charge.

Under the strong force, the little resistance left was also devastating.

"Even if the kindness of the past, in front of the sword, how much can be left?"

Looking at the militia that was almost about to collapse, Fang Yuan sighed silently and came to the lord's villa with Knight Gray.

This is the Frey Knight's annex, and when he is not there, it is used by the tax collector Jamal, and it is also the ruling core of this territory.

At this time, it was firmly surrounded by hundreds of people.

"Knight...... Jamal is inside! ”

Several fighters said flatteringly.

"Pass the order, start the general attack, if you can catch him, you will be rewarded with ten gold coins!"

Knight Gray waved his hand absentmindedly, and the group of soldiers suddenly rushed in with red eyes.

"Garth, don't compete with the guests for honor!"

Fang Yuan looked at the villa, but he had a bad premonition and waved his hand.

At this time, the majesty of being a lord, as well as the prestige established in the previous battle, suddenly came into play.

Garth and the other ten guards never moved, and the soldiers gathered in the other territories did not dare to move, and sat back and watched Gray's men rush into the villa.

"Haha...... Why bother? The boys should be given more exercise......"

Knight Gray smiled, "But in the end, it will be my servant Arnold who will win, he is a strong young man, and he used to ......"

Bang!!!

Just as he was halfway through his words, an earth-shattering loud bang suddenly appeared.

A large number of tongues of fire emerged from the villa, engulfing everything in an instant.

Even the surrounding soldiers were affected, their ears ached, and they fell to the ground screaming.

"This ......"

Gray Knight was overturned and dismounted, and his beloved mount ran away, but he didn't care at all, but stared blankly at everything in front of him: "What the hell is going on?" ”

"It's a trap!"

Fang Yuan's face was gloomy: "The other party has already known about our news, and has arranged a trigger spell, it should be a fireball technique and an explosion spell in succession, to cause such damage, a large number of explosion crystals are also needed - this is contraband!" ”

Having absorbed the memories of a mage, he was familiar with them.

Sir Frey's counterattack was so fierce and terrifying! It also reveals a depressing fact - the other party has long known everything about the crusade and has specially set up traps!

There are even other forces that are secretly funding each other.

"With just one business leader, you will definitely not be able to get so many spell scrolls!"

Fang Yuan is definitely authentic.

Of course, the effect is surprisingly good.

Except for the more than 20 people under his command who were only affected and slightly injured, most of Gray Knight's command was wiped out.

Death came like a tsunami, annihilating an unknown number of souls.

"Definitely the church! No one else could get their hands on so many fireball scrolls, and there were contraband! ”

Gray Knight's eyes were red.

Fang Yuan looked at this scene, but his expression was a little stunned.

Suddenly, a secret aura automatically emanated, devouring the resentment and necromancers in the raging flames, and soon changed.

An aura with a dark color gradually took shape in his sea of consciousness, and even automatically generated runes, with the power of spells.

The Scourge Knight's cursed aura ability was originally increased by a large amount of death and resentment!

Therefore, they often love the battlefield for ten minutes, and Grandon had the prestige of the 'Hand of Death' back then! Everywhere I passed, I was almost full of mourning.

'Cursed?' ’

Fang Yuan's mind was differentiated, and he was immersed in a special comprehension.

Sou!

At that moment, a shadow suddenly emerged from the shadows around him, and the dagger in his hand bit Gray's neck like a poisonous snake.

Assassin – Jamal!

Caught off guard, Gray Knight did everything he could.

Disheveled!

On him, a light of fighting spirit was released, his shoulders were deviated, and the whole person seemed to be a head shorter in an instant, and even his posture changed.

But all this, in front of the assassin's blade, is still so insignificant.

The dark black dagger seemed to be able to devour all the light, and with just a slight stab, the fighting qi defense collapsed.

Even, the opponent's arm will twist like a boneless snake, changing direction in an instant, and the tip of the dagger is still aimed at the hearts of all kinds of knights!

Extreme fear appeared in Gray's pupils.

In any case, he couldn't have imagined that Jamal's assassination skills would be so terrifying.

Even, he had no doubt that the other party could break through each and wipe out the rest of the people!

Burst!

The dagger went into the flesh, but instead of hitting the heart, it cut a hole in Gray's shoulder.

The assassin froze in surprise, still in a sprinting stance.

"Aura of Scourge - Weak! It can add negative status to specific enemy troops, and it seems to work well! ”

Fang Yuan nodded, and then snapped his fingers again: "Slow!" ”

A pale yellow aura spread, enveloping Jamal in an instant.

"Kill him!"

The assassin who has no speed and is still in a weak state, and most importantly, is still surrounded by the bright side, which is simply a great tragedy.

Not to mention, after opening the aura of increasing holdings, Gars and them are all comparable to elite fighters.

After a brief struggle, Jamal was immediately pierced by two giant swords and fell to the ground.

"Thank you, Knight of Rune!"

Gray hurriedly thanked him.

"Wait!"

Fang Yuan stared at his wound: "His dagger is ...... Poisonous! ”

"Huh?"

Gray looked at his wound and saw that it had begun to turn black and rot, and the most important thing was that he didn't feel anything, and he couldn't help but feel creepy in an instant: "Help!" ”

"I know a little bit about herbal identification......"

Fang Yuan blinked: "Give you a suggestion, pray!" ”

"Pray to the gods to heal me?"

Gray Knight was a little dizzy.

"It's not...... It was the prayer that this assassin brought the antidote with him! ”

Fang Yuan is serious and authentic.
