Lord of Lowland

Chapter 21

Cecil was a little surprised when he heard Henry say this. He was a bit of a scapegoat today, but he didn't expect Henry to apologize directly to him. Of course, Cecil would not let Henry go so easily, and said with a snort : "Those people didn't just offend me. It's not a big deal to offend me, but they bullied the villagers, set up private casinos, usury loans, and bullied men and women. These things are big things.

Henry smiled instead of anger after hearing this: "That's right, what these people did behind my back is really unforgivable. In order to express their punishment and apology to the lord, whoever comes here will bring a gift."

Deputy Deputy Henry clapped his hands, and a dozen attendants came out from the inner room. Each of them held an exquisite plate, and on each plate were chubby human heads!Cecil looked down at the headed plate, which was Wycombe's head.

"Hehe, what your lord said just now is very reasonable. They bullied the villagers behind my back, set up private casinos, borrowed usurious loans, and bullied men and women. They are really heinous. So I did not hesitate to punish them to show justice. .My lord, please accept this gift."

This lieutenant Henry is really a cold-blooded and ruthless person. Although Wycombe and the others deserve what they deserve, Henry is so cruel and merciless. The idea of ​​killing them all, as Henry's lackeys, Henry was merciless in attacking, not only silenced the murder, but also pushed all the blame to his subordinates, Henry is really an extremely self-interested villain.

Thinking of this, Cecil smiled slightly: "My lord is so upright and law-abiding, I admire it very much, and the earl must be very pleased to know it. It's just that my friend and I have visited several tenant farmers in the manor these days, and checked this year. The output of morning light wheat. I found that there is a little discrepancy with the account you gave to the earl this year. I don’t know if you can explain it.”

"My lord, don't listen to the nonsense of those troublemakers. I will do my best for the earl's tax revenue this year, and I will inevitably offend some troublemakers. They will hate me for working hard for the earl and harming their interests when collecting rent. Please, my lord, you can see clearly."

After finishing speaking, Henry waved his hand, and the attendant immediately handed over a money bag, and Cecil glanced at it.The purse is small, and it emits this dazzling purple light.

"Here are 100 purple gold coins. It is not a tribute. I would like to invite my lord to drink some tea."

100 purple gold coins, this is something worth 1 gold coins. It seems that this acting officer is really generous, but Cecil cannot be moved by it. regular space.Of course, even if the earl sent him here just for general investigation, and he could collect bribes, he didn't intend to accept the money, because this Henry really disgusted him.

"I appreciate the kindness of your lord, but your lord is in charge of 15 manors owned by the Earl, including one of my champions. Every year, you need to hand over hundreds of thousands of gold coins to the Earl. The amount paid is less than 10 gold coins every year, and last year it was even less than 20 yuan, and the Earl is very angry." Cecil spoke bluntly, and almost broke his face with Henry. "

"Hmph, since your lord thinks so, then I have nothing to do, but my lord, do you have any evidence or accounts to prove what you said? These years have been either severe droughts or floods. Mr. Yi and the earl wrote clearly, and the earl also wrote back to me expressing his agreement with my statement. The lord suddenly said that I deliberately withheld, and I was really wronged."

"So I need to check your accounts, Mr. Henry, to see if they can be compared with the actual accounts of Mr. Earl and other places." Cecil said
"Then do you have any orders from the Earl?" Henry asked, his tone becoming more and more hostile.

Cecil took out Earl Kasikud's autographed letter from his pocket and handed it to Henry on the opposite side: "Here is the earl's autographed letter, please take a look."

How did you know that Henry didn't even read it, and ate the letter directly into his stomach: "This letter is a forgery by you. I have been with the Earl for so many years, and I know his handwriting clearly. Now I suspect that you are not Lord Cecil, is just a liar who came to make trouble." Henry said viciously while eating the letter.

Cecil never expected that Henry, as a deputy official, would play such a bachelor in public. He was trembling with anger. At the same time, he really admired the other party. If there is a leaderboard for being shameless and shameless, this The acting officer must be on the list, and the bad guy Cecil has seen a lot, but this is the first time he has seen such a shameless, wretched and obscene Cecil.

But Andy felt a little bad. Since Henry had publicly broken his face like this, he would immediately start an attack if he couldn't protect himself.He said hurriedly: "Thank you for your reception today, Mr. Acting Officer. I think there is some misunderstanding between the two parties. Let's go back and report to the earl first, and then come back to apologize to Mr. Acting Officer." After saying this, he pulled Cecil out of the door.

Henry said with a fake smile: "It's too late to go now." After speaking, he slapped his hand on the table heavily, and the door suddenly and slowly closed, and many mercenaries ran from various small rooms When he came to the hall, thirty or forty mercenaries immediately stood around Cecil.These people are the elite troops of the mercenary regiment hired by Henry. "These people pretend to be Lord Earl, forged letters from Lord Earl, and come to me in an attempt to bluff and deceive me, and they will shoot me to death!"

Cecil looked around, most of the dozens of mercenaries around were civilian templates of the thirties and forties, and there were a few regular army templates of elite divisions. The growth of 1, the regular army template is to add five free attribute points for each level in addition to the five-dimensional plus one for each level after level 10.An ordinary player template like Cecil, that is, a hero template, can basically work in various temple occupations. After level 10, in addition to the five-dimensional plus, an additional ten free attribute points are added per level.Of course, after Cecil worked part-time as the strongest hidden professional spellbreaker in the Temple of War, he also gained an additional 10 levels and five dimensions plus five for each level up.

In fact, being able to work in various temples can not only gain additional attribute growth, but also the professional skills of the temple can make a person completely reborn. If the extra attribute growth is not counted, a temple professional of the same level can rely on all the skills. The skills learned should at least match the regular army of the same level.Therefore, in the original game, no matter how powerful the players are, they are forced by the system not to participate in the regular army. A troop composed of players is absolutely unsolvable on the battlefield. It is possible that all of them are composed of temple employees.

So even though they also saw many level 3 mercenaries, Cecil and Andy were not very panicked.Cecil used the Divine Punishment to strike a holy light and rushed towards the people in front. This time, unlike when he fought Wycombe and the others two days ago, Cecil attacked with all his strength.Cecil's mental power was at least five times that of these civilian template mercenaries. Such a powerful holy light suddenly made them helpless, and the people in front were knocked away in an instant.Cecil rushed towards Henry, and Henry turned around and ran away, but in Cecil's eyes, his speed was even slower than a turtle.Cecil quickly caught up with Henry and stabbed him with his sword.

At this moment, Cecil felt a strong suction force from the side. The shield knight skill "taunt", this skill is a compulsory attack skill like the knight skill "provocation", Cecil slashed at On the shield of a shield warrior next to him, this shield is much larger than his own round shield and the solid shield of the knights he has seen before. It is a large shield dedicated to shield warfare. This kind of heavy shield can almost cover the whole body of a person. Shields can only be held by people from the Temple of the Earth with outstanding strength. Through the shield, Cecil saw a burly figure and a serious face. From the plate armor on his body, it seems that this person is actually an Earth Temple. Tier 2 professional guards of the temple.

This person is the leader of this mercenary group, Sanders. Sanders himself came from the Temple of the Earth, but because of his sins against a duke, no one dared to use him, so that he was reduced to a mercenary. Dazhi, so being the leader of such a low-level mercenary group is also a pleasure. The entire mercenary group has been hired by Deputy Officer Henry and is now calling the wind and rain in the Kent area, and it is also majestic.

In terms of comprehensive attributes, although Sanders is already above level 60, Cecil thinks that he is no worse than him. After all, the growth of ordinary Earth Temple shield battles is there. It will never be too weak, but the profession of shield warfare has high blood and thick blood and has more hatred skills than knights. After all, this profession is the most suitable for fighting monsters in this world.Cecil slashed three swords in a row, and each sword was firmly blocked by the shield. When he paid attention to observe Henry's escape path, he was directly hit by Sanders with a shield. The shield warrior is the only one who can use the shield as a weapon Cecil didn't pay attention to being hit by a blow, and suddenly felt stars in his eyes,

Cecil didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly flew back. A fireball came from behind and hit Cecil directly. Although Cecil had the 32% magic resistance provided by the spellbreaker, he still felt some headaches. Looking back, it was the butler who led him the way.

There were even mages in this mercenary group, and Cecil felt that he underestimated this mercenary group.Just when the mage was about to use the skill CD to cast another ice spell, a bolt of lightning struck him and immediately knocked him down. The mage's thin blood volume immediately dropped by 1/3. The pain of this mage Falling to the ground and screaming, Cecil knew without asking that it was Andy who was attacking.
