I Want To Be a Nobleman

Chapter 31 The Marauder

When night came, Marcus arranged for everyone to rest, and called Harold with a solemn expression.

You and Kryon take a few good men to the front to investigate, remember to come back before dawn, your intelligence determines our next move!

Harold felt that the burden on his shoulders suddenly became heavier, and he replied seriously: I promise to complete the task!

[Ding, accept the mission Investigate the situation ahead to investigate the changes in the outer periphery of the eastern province and the reasons for the changes, and report to Marcus before dawn! 】

[Task reward, 2000 experience, a random item. 】

Harold and the bald head set off with several elite gladiators and Harold's five knight attendants.

Baldhead and Harold were discussing what happened.

The bald head said: Could it be that powerful monsters or monsters invaded and occupied the nearby territory, so there are no traces of humans here?

How powerful does it have to be to occupy such a large territory? We walked for a whole day without seeing a single person!

Besides, Bragg is a legendary powerhouse, what kind of monsters and magical beasts can't even deal with him?

Harold also asked what the legendary level meant, and Marcus replied that he had surpassed the limit of ordinary creatures and had undergone a qualitative change in his life level.

Marcus didn't know exactly how. When he and the Marquis of Prague went to the battlefield together, the Marquis of Prague wasn't at the legendary level.

The bald head excitedly answered Harold's question: Dragon! Any adult dragon is a legendary creature! Although the Marquis of Prague is strong, it is difficult to defeat a flying dragon!

Harold is speechless, so can't you think about other possibilities? Must be a monster invasion?

I know you want to slay the dragon, but don't just pull everything on the dragon!

While talking, suddenly a fire appeared in the distance, which was especially eye-catching at night. Harold and the bald head looked at each other, and hurried over on horseback.

After approaching, Harold found that it was a burning village. The fire was not small, and both Baldhead and Harold had the extraordinary ability of [Fire Resistance].

Leaving a few squires and elite gladiators on alert, the two of them walked into the burning village.

The burning fire, the fresh corpse, and the clear horseshoe prints, Harold and the bald head both understood, and this is a massacre of the village!

The bald head and Harold were both angry. There was no one alive in the village, and hundreds of corpses were thrown here and cremated together with the village.

The murderer was not a monster or a monster. The wounds of the villagers were obviously caused by weapons. Coupled with the horseshoe prints, it must have been done by humans!

Chasing, the fire hasn't been burning for long, they won't be far away!

Harold and the bald head only brought ten men, a total of twelve people, chasing the troops ahead of an unknown number of people, not because they were angry and lost their minds.

Rather, they think that those beasts who wield butcher knives against unarmed villagers must not be so strong, otherwise why would they not dare to attack the nobles who ruled the village, only dare to attack the villagers?

It can't be because of enmity with the villagers, right?

The bald head has excellent observation skills, and can distinguish the direction of the enemy's advance very well. They are small but elite, and they quickly chased the enemy.

The enemy also found them from a distance. There were more than 50 cavalrymen in total. They also captured a villager and several carts of supplies.

Kill, just kill one or two lives! The bald man's loud voice resounded through the night sky, and he raised his hand and threw a few javelins while speaking.

The bald head's technique is really terrifying, and he killed three enemies with a single throw by the moonlight.

Harold also showed great power, and jumped off the horse. First, a small fireball disrupted the opponent's formation, and then charged into the crowd and started killing wildly with a big sword.

The five servants under Harold are all cavalry units in the game, and they can easily pierce the enemy with long spears.

A few elite gladiators were also exceptionally capable, and each showed their abilities to easily deal with their opponents.

Soon, more than half of the cavalry team of nearly 50 people was killed, and a dozen ran away, and two were captured by Harold and the others, one of whom was an extraordinary knight!

Although that guy also accepted the blood power of the nobles, but his strength is not strong, and he was subdued by a few moves by the bald head.

The power sharing effect obtained by knights is not against the sky, far less powerful than the nobles themselves.

Even if Harold's adaptability is astonishing, he added 2 points to each of his strength and agility attributes, and even less for ordinary people. The opponent's strength and agility attributes are estimated to be around 15 or 16 points.

The power of the extraordinary knight is mainly the extraordinary ability. That guy's ability is regeneration. Although it is not as good as that of the troll, the recovery speed is still amazing.

It's a pity that the bald head is several grades stronger than him in terms of strength. The knight is just a sandbag if he can recover. After being cut off by the bald head, he has no power to resist.

Who are you, why are you attacking villages, burning, killing and looting! The bald head began to press for information.

Harold went to appease the villager. She was a pretty girl with fair skin. This kind of beauty was rare among the villagers.

She was much prettier and plumper than the most beautiful maid Harold had chosen. No wonder these people were captured and not killed.

Don't worry, you are safe. I am Harold, the chief knight of Viscount Marcus. I will protect your safety. Ma'am, what is your name?

The girl trembled in fear. Her hometown was burned and her relatives were slaughtered. Now her heart is extremely fragile.

My name is Shihoru. Thank you, sir, for saving me. Huh, huh, huh! The girl threw herself into Harold's arms and cried loudly.

Well, a 10-point charm is definitely a handsome guy. Although he can't compare with a handsome man like Marcus, Harold is also good-looking!

The bald-headed questioning of the prisoner was almost done. He raised his head to look at the beautiful girl in Harold's arms, and then lowered his head to look at the hideous-looking prisoner.

The bald man sighed, damn it, why did I come to force the prisoner to comfort the beautiful woman!

Harold didn't know about the bald head's slander, otherwise he would have to complain, this girl is only 16 years old, and my father is just 18, which is a perfect match.

Are you an uncle who is almost 40 years old and still want beautiful girls? Horny milfs are your thing, don't even think about farts!

The bald head told the information that the knight gave.

Now the eastern provinces are in chaos. Most of the eastern nobles are willing to go to open up wasteland with Prague, but the nobles in other provinces are not happy.

They didn't dare to stop the Marquis of Prague head-on, so they quietly sent troops pretending to be robbers to attack the village repeatedly and rob supplies.

There are a lot of materials needed to open up wasteland, and the Marquis of Prague must concentrate the power of the entire eastern province to get them together.

The attention of the nobles was to make Prague unable to gather enough supplies, so that opening up wasteland became nonsense.

The knight came to plunder the village under the order of the noble lord. Seeing that Xihoru was beautiful, he simply robbed him. Unexpectedly, the villagers were not happy, and they resisted and injured several brothers.

The knight ordered the massacre of the village in a fit of rage. Anyway, there were no big people in the village, so they burned as soon as they were burned. The eastern province has become a mess and cannot be managed.

This information shocked Harold, and hurriedly took the captive and the rescued girl back to the camp to discuss with Marcus.

After several people went back, they hurriedly informed Marcus, and Marcus stayed up all night waiting for Harold and his party to report back.

Marcus understood the cause and effect and cursed: Damn it, rob your own country's village! Which bastard thought of this!

Marcus briefly stated the seriousness of this matter, although the original intention of the nobles was to rob supplies, and did not really want to invade the eastern provinces.

But not all nobles can consider the overall situation. Many people only care about their own interests. When they lead troops to the villages and towns, can they hold back and only snatch the worthless wasteland reclamation materials?

And can the people be happy when you rob materials? Once the control is not good, it will be a bloody incident, and even the detonation and upgrade will turn into looting.

Just like what the Harolds saw today, it was supposed to be over after a deterrent of looting supplies, but who knew that there was a beautiful girl that aroused the greed of the knight?

Anyway, the nobles in the eastern provinces are busy opening up wasteland, and I'm not the only one who came to loot. It's no big deal to slaughter the village!

This is what those greedy and blinded people think in their minds. The situation has seriously deteriorated. In just a few months, a large number of villages and towns on the outskirts of the eastern provinces have been destroyed, and the leaders have been killed one after another.

Harold sighed when he heard this. This is the flaw of the aristocratic enfeoffment system. The country's overall cohesion is insufficient, and the army's morale is even worse. It is normal to loot everywhere under the banner of aristocrats.

Troubled times are like bandits, and this world is even more so. Once the nobles of the territory are unable to protect the people, the ending can only be tragic.

Marcus picked up the captive knight and asked, Which family do you belong to? Besides your family, are there other nobles who sent people to plunder?

The prisoner saw that Marcus was angry and his hair was on fire, so he dared not hide it, and told all the information in detail.

I'm a knight from the Eusta family. Besides our family, the Leon family and the Creno family also sent troops into the country.

Other families only intercepted caravans outside the eastern provinces, and rarely harassed villages after entering the country. They all went to big cities to buy supplies at high prices!

Marcus was a little relieved, There are only three, it seems that there are not many idiots, hey, do you know the location of other troops?

The knight looked distressed and didn't want to betray his master. Marcus' eyes were burning, and he pulled the knight in front of him, and said viciously:

Answer me! Don't test my patience!

Marcus' two pupils completely turned into two groups of flames, like a devil from hell. The knight was so frightened that he couldn't care less about his loyalty, and honestly confessed all the information.

It was a coincidence that the robbery team happened to have a somewhat similar itinerary with Harold and the others.

Marcus thought for a moment, and said, We can't let them continue to be such a disaster! Both population and supplies are essential for land reclamation.

Harlot, you and the bald head take your legion and other infantry and crossbowmen. You protect my supplies and the safety of the people and continue to the territory of the Marquis of Prague.

I took other knights and cavalry to snipe these robbers! Take it as a gift to the Marquis of Prague!

Don't worry, we won't be too far away. Every day I will send someone to send you letters and exchange news.

After Marcus made a decision, he immediately began to implement it. The infantry and crossbowmen did not ride horses, and they happened to escort the supplies and the people.

The highly mobile cavalry led by Marcus can scout and snipe the small army that is looting within a range of tens of miles around Harold and his party.

Marcus didn't need to deal with too many enemies, as long as he killed a few teams to make the three nobles and knights have scruples, the harm faced by the eastern provinces would be greatly reduced.

The original intention of the kingdom was to prevent the country from weakening, but now it has turned into this situation because a few restless nobles have been dazzled by greed.

Even if they were left alone, sooner or later, most of the nobles with online sanity would stop or even attack those nobles who went too far. Marcus just wanted to advance this time.

After Marcus took two hundred riders away, Harold seemed to have become the leader of more than a thousand people, the highest officer.

Xihoru felt that Harold, who saved her, had an extraordinary status, and his own strength was also extremely powerful. Like the heroes in the novels and biographies, she immediately worshiped him.

Under one person, with a noble status above a thousand, and the admiration of beautiful women, Harold felt extremely comfortable in his heart, but when he thought of the destroyed villages and the civilians who were killed, he felt extremely sad.

The two emotions are intertwined, which makes Harold's heart more determined! He became more and more convinced that his choice of following Marcus was not wrong!

He wants to pursue his dream, he wants to fight hard, he wants to stand out in this world of the jungle!
