Night Raven Master

Chapter 545
Not long after, Arthur finally caught up with the two teams following the clues given by Dumasser.

The first group of people was a group of mercenaries. After killing them, absorbing their vitality, and transforming them into scarlet servants, Ashun followed the miner's sense of smell to pursue the second group of people.

However, after he gradually approached, he could only smell a strong smell of blood.

When he came to the source of the bloody smell, he found the bodies of four people.

Their bodies were all in different locations, and their faces were either stunned or confused, obviously quite puzzled by their own being killed.

The murderer was an acquaintance. Judging from the blood condition, the time of death was about half a day.

Already ran away.

The conclusion made made Ashurn feel a little regretful.

The opponent has escaped too far.

And Arthur didn't have much time to look for someone aimlessly. After ordering Dumasser and the newly created scarlet servants to wait around the Killand and look for the trace of that person, Arthur continued to talk to Dinah and the others went to Gowers Territory.

After the autumn harvest, there was a bumper harvest scene everywhere in Gowers Manor. Several grain silos were full of grain and flour, which made the faces of many tenant farmers happy.

With such a harvest, the remaining grain after they handed over to the lord, Prince Gowers, is enough to leave enough grain for the winter and seeds for the next spring.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but start praying again, praising the gift of the earth and the generosity of the lord.

The tax standard of the Gowers family is not set high.

However, I heard that the tax on Bab Manor has increased again recently?

Babu, the eldest son of Prince Gowers.

In the future, it will definitely be Master Babu who will take over the position of the prince, and the taxation in the future
Forget it, the future is the future, they don't need to worry about the current tax.

The tenants continued to arrange the haystacks.

And beside the pasture of the manor, piles of haystacks were piled up high, like fortresses of different shapes, and two figures were constantly flashing between the haystacks.

"Master Kos, pay attention to the center of gravity!"

Accompanied by a vicissitudes of life sound, a long sword in the hands of a middle-aged man with blond hair tore out like the sharp claws of a wild beast, and attacked the young man not far in front.

"I understand!"

The thin long sword held by the young man swung horizontally and hit the middle-aged man's long sword from the side.

when!
Accompanied by a light sound, the long sword in the middle-aged man's hand was knocked crookedly, and then, the long sword in the young man's hand twisted a strange arc in mid-air like a snake and scorpion, stabbing the middle-aged man from an unexpected angle.

Although this sword skill is very tricky, but as a swordsmanship teacher who taught him to grow up, the middle-aged man was not directly defeated by such a sword skill.

On the contrary, the two-handed long sword in his hand, which was a few rounds older than the youth and comparable to the epee, swung vigorously, and also used the same sword skill.

If the youth's sword is a poisonous snake wrapped around a tree, then the middle-aged teacher's sword is a giant python entrenched in a swamp.

"It's this way!!!"

When the young man pulled back in a panic to prepare for the defensive position, he drank in a low voice and swung the epee in his hand.

when!
The two long swords intersected again, and a deep voice came out, followed by a huge force.

"not good!"

The young man's face changed drastically, and he was overwhelmed by the huge force, causing his whole body to shift.

A huge force came and knocked him flying.

When the young man opened his eyes again, the middle-aged man's long sword had already been inserted into the ground, and he stretched out his palm:
"Master Quos, it is not a wise choice to retreat during a battle."

"Yes! I remember." Kos smiled helplessly, put his hand in the middle-aged man's hand, and stood up with the other's pull.

"Master Quos, when dealing with different weapons, you need to have different blocking movements. Your movements are still not enough, especially when you choose to retreat, it is quite deadly."

As a swordsmanship instructor, the middle-aged man naturally tried his best to guide the illegitimate son of Prince Gowers.

Listening to the middle-aged man's instructions, Quos also seemed to be obediently listening to the lecture, with an abnormal expression of admiration on his face.

"In the future, Master Kos, after you have been baptized, you will awaken your talent. At that time, you have to learn to match your talent."

As he said that, the middle-aged man grabbed the long sword again with his right hand, and after that, blue-black scales appeared on his body surface, his legs and feet became stronger, and at the same time, his eyes became thinner instantly, turning into Vertical pupil.

"After I activate my talent, I will have a stronger body, but because of the change in body shape, some details of sword skills need to be changed, so the best choice is to choose a larger weapon that can give full play to its strength."

The swordsmanship instructor patiently explained to this young master Quos.

The young man listened patiently, but at this moment, he suddenly found that in the distance, in the center of the manor, the gate of the majestic castle was opened.

what happened?
Kos was slightly puzzled.

The dappled sunlight shines in through the windows, bringing a layer of bright light and shadow to the living room.

"Your Majesty!"

Dinah saluted respectfully. Although the other party was her father, as an illegitimate child, she naturally couldn't address her father blatantly.

Even Prince Gowers doesn't care about that.

"not bad!"

The old Prince Gowers, who was close to fifty, had a low and kind voice, and bright eyes—it was obvious that he liked Dinah very much.

During this period of time, Dinah actually developed a large mercenary group of more than 50 people, which was indeed beyond Prince Gowers' expectations.

"In order to avoid trouble, I didn't gather all the members together, but let them spread out in a small mercenary group."

Dinah smiled and told about the mercenary group.

"very good."

Prince Gowers put the thick book in his hand on the desk.

Dinah's decision made his eyes shine.

Although it is not eye-catching, this method is indeed very suitable for hiding power.

Dinah's growth made him feel a little happy.

"However, I think you need to pay attention to whether those mercenary groups are still willing to listen to your command."

Prince Gowers pondered for a while and said.

Whether the scattered forces will rebel or not, on this point, the aristocratic Prince Gowers has the most say.

It is not without reason that nobles will set up their own direct knights.

Those who are not subordinates directly under their own jurisdiction will always have many problems.

Even the subordinates under their own direct control will have problems.

No one can guarantee absolute loyalty, let alone a role like a mercenary who has no loyalty at all.
