Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 200 Arson
Rhodes turned through the window silently, without waking up a nobleman who was sleeping soundly on the bed.

He went to the bed, covered the nobleman's mouth with one hand, and cut his throat with the dagger with the other.

Rhodes felt that he was becoming more and more proficient in doing this kind of thing now, not only did the nobleman have no chance to make any noise, but he also didn't splatter blood on himself.

If you don't become a nobleman this time, you can join that assassin's alliance and be a free and unrestrained killer.

Rhodes searched for the nobleman, took off the two rings that seemed to be valuable and threw them into the interspatial ring, and then he found a wallet containing gold coins and gems in the table next to him.

He turned on the system to check the chivalry value. Few of the imperial soldiers who killed during the day could provide him with chivalry points. Those officers and mercenaries still provided some, and the nobleman in front of him provided more chivalry points than those killed today. So many imperial soldiers add up to more.

Rhode felt that if it was not necessary in the future, he should not participate in such wars again. Today, too many people were killed, both good and bad. He didn't feel much when he was killed, but he still felt a little bit when he calmed down. I'm sorry.

But now he still doesn't feel much about killing the nobleman just now, especially after killing him and providing him with a lot of chivalry points, it is estimated that this unknown nobleman must be domineering in his territory and cruelly exploiting the people.

Rhodes opened the door a little, and after making sure that no one was there, he left the room and walked to the next room.

The door was locked, and Rhodes tried it, but found that he couldn't cut the lock with a dagger like before, so he had to give up.

This is the case for several rooms in a row, and these rooms are all rooms without windows, and they cannot be opened through the windows.

Rhodes decided to go to the second floor to have a look. The castle has three floors, and the first floor is now occupied by some low-status minor nobles. Before those nobles escaped, these minor nobles were not eligible to live in the castle.

The enfeoffment nobles in this world are somewhat similar to the previous European Middle Ages.

Vassals of my vassals, not my vassals.

Most of the nobles who fled were not the emperor's direct vassals. Unless those nobles had conflicts with their lords, they would at most just lose face, and their titles and territories would not be reduced.

Rhodes felt that the emperor of the Roman Empire should be called the king.

There may be some other reasons that Rhodes doesn't understand, and he still needs to read more history books of this world to find out.

Rhodes saw two guards at the top of the stairs, and there were oil lamps hanging on the walls around them. If Rhodes just walked over like this, he would definitely be found.

How about putting on the clothes of the nobleman before and tricking him?But it would be embarrassing if these two soldiers knew the nobleman just now.

Rhodes decided to kill all the people on the first floor who could be killed first.

He went back to that room and turned out the window, and then circled around the castle. When he saw an open window, he turned in and killed the sleeping nobleman inside, and searched for some valuable items along the way.

It took Rhodes about half an hour to finish all this, and then he casually changed into the clean clothes that a nobleman of his stature put in the closet.

He decided to take a gamble, and the harvest tonight was not bad. Not only did he kill many nobles, but he also got a lot of valuable things and a lot of chivalry points.

When the rest of the people find out that the nobles were killed quietly tomorrow morning, they will definitely fall into a state of panic, and they will not dare to stay alone in the room to sleep in the future.

After Nord's army entered the fortress, they launched a wave of attacks on the castle, and found that the casualties were a bit serious, so they decided to take a rest for a day and attack the castle tomorrow morning.

Rhodes felt that he might have a chance to visit the castle again tomorrow night, or if he was not found tonight, he would stay in the castle and help the Nords attack the castle tomorrow to get some credit.

Wearing the robes of some unfortunate nobleman he didn't know, he walked to the stairs leading to the second floor.

The two guards wearing shiny steel armor stopped him. Both of them are imperial sergeants, and their strength is not weak.Rhodes felt that if he chose to play one against two, it would take some time to deal with them both.

"What are you doing upstairs so late?" asked one of the sergeants.

Rhodes noticed that the eyes under his helmet did not show vigilance, maybe he was just worried that he would disturb the big nobles upstairs.

"I have something very important to discuss with Marquis Eric." Rhode started talking nonsense again. He only knew the names of a few big nobles. After thinking about it, it's better to say this nobleman he met this morning. .

"What needs to be discussed now?" Another sergeant asked curiously.

"You are just ordinary untouchables, what right do you have to ask me so much? Believe it or not, I will keep you in the most dangerous place tomorrow? Think about your family, I think you don't want to see them again ?” Rhodes pretended to be angry and said.

After the two sergeants heard it, their breathing became heavier, and they seemed a little angry.

But in the end they got out of the way,
"We were rude, sir, please don't blame us." A sergeant apologized to Rhodes.

Before they were conscripted into the army, they were just ordinary civilians, and even now they are just a little more powerful soldiers.

Rhodes smiled and nodded, and then slowly walked up the stairs.

He felt that he was lucky, the two sergeants didn't know the owner of the robe he was wearing, otherwise he could only slip away instead of running to the second floor swaggeringly after threatening them like this.

The rooms on the second floor of the castle were also locked, and Rhodes couldn't insert a dagger into the crack of the door to cut off the lock.

The stairs leading to the third floor were in a corner of the second floor, and Rhodes saw several guarding knights standing there.

Rhodes suddenly thought of an idea. He took out the wooden barrel full of kerosene in the system space. After walking away from the stairs leading to the third floor, he poured out the kerosene inside while walking, making most of the second floor The floors of the corridors are covered with kerosene.

When he reached the stairs, he used his internal force to ignite the kerosene with his flame palm.After reaching the first floor, he swaggered into the corner of the corridor under the gaze of two sergeants
Rhodes threw away the kerosene-stained shoes and the robe at random, and then walked into the room where the servant lived.

There was only one wooden peg in this room, and Rhodes cut the peg silently, and then entered the room, all the way back to the cellar, without disturbing any sleeping servants on the way.

He ignited the grain stored inside again.

"Do you smell anything?" asked a sergeant at the stairs.

"It seems that something is burning." Another sergeant looked back and found that the entire second floor was flickering with fire...
