Sword and Sorcery and Martial Arts

Chapter 250 Emergencies
Rhodes still has some questions to ask, but the Chief Grand Maester is obsessed with the genetic theory he shared, so Rhodes can only ask him tomorrow.

The chief academician's strength division method is not linked to combat effectiveness, but it also has a certain reference value. His longevity may be because he belongs to the second level in his mouth, just like those false gods.

Rhodes only knew how to divide the ranks of mages before, from low to high into novice, apprentice, veteran, expert, and master.According to the division method of strength that most people use, as the chief scholar said, novice-level mages and apprentice-level mages are both Tier [-], veteran-level is Tier [-], expert-level is Tier [-], and master-level is Tier [-]. .

It is estimated that if a pure mage wants to reach the fifth level, he must master many types of magic. As for the sixth and seventh levels, he needs to find his own way and create his own magic.

Rhodes rode back to the castle. As soon as he reached the gate of the castle, an officer hurried over.

"My lord, heretics have appeared on the territory." The officer said anxiously.

Rhodes was slightly taken aback when he heard it, he didn't expect that he had only been here for a few days, and something like this happened, "What did they do? How about the casualties?"

"They're here to spread their teachings, and they haven't hurt anyone yet," the officer replied.

"Ride my horse to the stables and bring two horses out. Don't take this horse out. Let it rest for a few days." Rhodes got off the horse and gave an order.

"Yes! Your Excellency!" The officer rode Rhode's horse and ran back to the castle.

After a while, he rode a horse and led a horse and ran out.

Rhodes turned over and climbed onto the horse, "Take me to that place."

The officer nodded and led Rhodes towards the south on horseback.

Ten minutes later, they stopped in front of the village Rhodes had visited.

On the way, Rhodes learned that this officer was called Slade. After looking at him carefully, Rhodes found that he really looked like the death knell in Batman.

He knew that there were cultists in this village because the middle-aged groom who Rhodes stayed in the village ran to the castle to inform him.

"It's here." Slade said, pointing to the village ahead.

Rhodes rode into the village and saw dozens of people in red robes talking loudly in the open space of the village.

They also seemed to have used some special magic, making the surrounding villagers look at them with fanatical eyes.

"What are you doing!" Rhodes shouted at the cultists.

"We are here to spread God's will, do you want to join us?" The cultist who was standing in the middle of the crowd and speaking loudly stopped his speech.

"My lord, I think what they said is very reasonable, you should listen to it too." A farmer persuaded Rhodes in a low voice.

Rhodes felt that he must capture these cultists alive and learn the magic they use to confuse people. This is too easy to use.

"What god do you believe in?" Rhodes asked.

"The omniscient and omnipotent nameless God, God tells us that life is short, and we should enjoy ourselves while we are born. We have nothing when we are born, and we will have nothing when we die. You can't take what you have gained through hard work with you when you die. It is better to enjoy the beauty of this world. The time you work is for enjoyment. If you don’t have money or food, you can steal or beg. Stealing and begging are also a kind of fun.” A young cultist with a bald head explained to Rhodes.

Rhodes felt that these people were not too evil, and they didn't kill or set fire. It's better to capture them all alive as coolies, and let them confess their crimes in honorable labor.

It happens that there are still few people working on road repairs and wharves, but their dumb acupoints need to be sealed all the time, so as not to speak out and affect other people's work.

"Your god must think that you misunderstood its meaning and felt that you need to experience the joy of labor, so he let you come to my territory." Rhodes said after walking into the group of cultists.

He suddenly shot to seal the acupuncture points of several cultists around him, and used the mage ball to pull all the cultists who wanted to escape to him.

Although there were more than 30 of these cultists, they were as weak as ordinary people. With the help of Mage Ball and Slade, Rhodes easily subdued them.

It didn't take long for him to click on the dumb points and numb points on the bodies of these cultists. Now they can't even turn their necks except for walking.

After the mute points of all the cultists were sealed, the eyes of the surrounding villagers also returned to normal. They were no longer as fanatical as before, but rather dazed.

"What happened to us just now?" the village elder asked suspiciously.

"These cultists are brainwashing you," Rhodes explained.

"Fortunately, the adults came in time, otherwise you will be completely influenced by their thoughts after their ceremony is completely completed." Slade tied up these cultists one by one while talking.

"Thank you so much!" The village elder sincerely thanked Rhodes.

"This is what I should do. The road repairs can start today. You are responsible for repairing the road from your village to the castle." Rhodes thought he would take this opportunity to handle this matter well, so as not to come again Run a few times, "I can pay you a deposit first, or I can directly transport a batch of food to your village for you to distribute."

"Just bring the grain here, so we don't have to go to the town to buy it." The village elder replied.

Rhodes estimated the distance from the village to the castle on the road, and they spent about 15 minutes riding on horseback.The horses carried them on such a difficult wild road, even if they could travel thirty kilometers per hour, the castle was still seven or eight kilometers away.

They may not be able to repair this section of road in most of the winter, so let them start work as soon as possible.It is enough for these farmers to build a flat dirt road temporarily, and then pave it with cement later.

"How about I give five catties of rye a day to each of you who are involved in road construction? But don't try to fool me with people who can't work." Rhodes nodded.

Under such conditions, an adult male labor force can plow more than a dozen acres of land, which is considered good, but it is estimated that each mu can only produce two to three hundred catties. Working under Rhodes during the slack season is still more profitable than their farming.

"You are so generous. If you had come to choose the candidates yourself, you wouldn't have to worry about us making up the numbers." The village elder asked.

"No, I will go to the construction site to check, and let you know first, you must choose a man between the ages of 15 and 50, and there is no physical disability. I will give other jobs to women in the village in the future. Rhodes replied, "I have nothing else to do, I will leave first, and I will send someone to supervise you."

"My lord, go slowly!" The village elder shouted with a smile.

Rhodes and Slade left the village. All those cultists were tied around their necks one by one by Slade just now, and the end of the rope was held by Slade, so now Rhodes and the two of them Follow over 30 cultists in red robes.

"Slade, do you think you can take charge of this matter?" Rhodes turned his head and asked.

"Overseeing their road work?" Slade replied.

"Yes, in addition to those villagers, these cultists will also go to build roads. When the time comes, you remember to bring a whip. If these cultists don't work hard, you can whip them, but don't whip those villagers. .” Rhodes said.

"I understand all this. I often participate in road construction in my hometown. How long do you expect us to finish?" Slade asked again.

"Of course, the sooner the better, you also heard that I pay by the day, but don't push them too hard." Rhodes replied.

"My lord, I understand all this. I forgot to tell you, Lord Baron is back." Slade said...
