Lord of terror

As long as the road is a little longer, ordinary people will not be able to run to Tarian City on two legs, and the cold and wild beasts will kill them.

Those who can enter the city are mostly knights' families, and the rest are merchants and the like.They ran over with their property and food, but before they escaped, Duke Wenerta searched so hard that many people became penniless—otherwise the captive knights who were released would also Not working anywhere.

These leaders all ran to the city of Tarian, which indirectly facilitated the expansion of Meng Luofei in the Duchy of Wen Erta.Winter has not yet passed, and the food storage in the city has been exhausted. More and more people began to run out of Tarian City, and they were all caught by the players and sent to Monroe.

When Kunz came to Tarian City last time, although the city was dilapidated, at least there were rules.But this time, Tarian City doesn't look like a city, but just a large gathering place for homeless people.Someone saw Kunz flying in the sky, howled a few times, and they immediately hid in the house-the homeless man no longer looked like a wild animal.

Following the guidance of Butler J, Kunz came to the Wenerta family castle on the hillside.Compared with the Monroe Castle, the castle here is very simple, it is a gray stone castle with a few spires on top of the square below.

Someone on the top of the tower shot an arrow at Kunz, but the arrow was still tens of meters away from Kunz, and the arrow was blown by the wind so he didn't know where to go.When Kunz turned his gaze away, the archer screamed immediately and ran down from the tower.Or maybe it rolled all the way down?Kunz pouted, the voice didn't sound very good.

There is a moat around the castle. This is a stagnant river. Generally, the people in the castle will discharge sewage here. Even though it is still winter, the year-round filth still makes this river stink unstoppably.The main entrance of the castle, which is also the drawbridge of the moat, was pulled up.

Kunz raised his hand, hesitating for a long time whether to burn through the gate directly, or just burn the sling.Finally he decided to go down from the top of the castle.There are still people living here, and if the gate is not closed, they will freeze to death.And after a while, this place will also be Monrofi's territory. It's good to build the castle into an amusement park, and there's no need to destroy your own things.

He flew up again and landed on the roof of the castle.In fact, I should have gone down from the tower just now, but now I took an extra step.The castle should be protected by magic, but the original owner of the castle has run away completely, and the people who live here now obviously cannot activate those powers.

Kunz walked down, he knew that someone was watching him through the dark hole in the wall, but as long as they didn't attack, Kunz wouldn't do anything to those people.

In some of the rooms that Kunz passed by, the doors and windows had been removed, and the furniture inside had disappeared, leaving only some tattered wood with delicate patterns—a lot of noble furniture was custom-made and made directly in the room Well, normal doors can't be moved in, and if you want to get those furniture out, you have to dismantle them.But depending on the situation, it is not as simple as dismantling. The new residents here obviously did not replace the furniture, but burned the furniture as firewood, right?

It's a pity that the future Huerta Castle will not be authentic.

The filth in each middle school is indispensable along the way, and even the stench is more offensive than that of the moat.

Kunz came all the way to the hall on the first floor of the castle. There is a huge firepit. There is also a white campfire in the middle of the firepit. It is about the size of a mangosteen. It is jumping and hiding among the firewood. Compared with this big firepit, it is too inconspicuous. .

[Uh... can I devour?Doesn't the campfire represent a seal? 】If the campfire, that is, the seals can devour each other, then the nobles' desire to expand will not wait until now to erupt.

[Did you realize it now? 】Kuntz felt that he seemed to see Butler J rolling his eyes 【Duke Wenerta has given up his title, and this campfire has become an ownerless thing.But if a guy with the blood of the Huerta family runs out, he can gain the dominance of the campfire and cause trouble for you.Or if there is a vacancy in the seal node for a long time, then this will become the weak point of the Great Seal, and it will collapse earlier than other places.

You also have a little bit of the blood of Duke Huerta in your body, after all, the two families are too close.You devoured it to protect the Great Seal and Meng Luofei. 】

[Can you hold multiple roles? 】

[Others can't, but with me, you can.Through me, can the campfire be temporarily blinded? 】

[This is not devouring, is it?It feels like taking over...]

[Words are not a problem, as long as it turns out that way is fine. 】

【oh. 】Kuntz found that there were quite a lot of things he had overlooked 【The campfire relies on the seal... The campfire in Viscount Kirk disappeared, why is the campfire in Monrofei still there? 】

[Because the campfire in Monroe is no longer the same thing as the campfire here, it was originally the campfire I chose as the player's birth point.But then, it exists because of the player.Players firmly believe that the campfire is the birth point, the 'save point', and the teleportation point.If you think so, then it is.Even... After a while, when your strength is stronger, the natives of Tuoxing may be able to teleport around through campfires. 】

[(⊙o⊙) It seems that because of my slowness, I made a lot of mistakes.Also, is there anything else you missed? 】

【(^▽^) Fun. 】

【All right……】

Kunz walked into the firepit, and it was very clean here.The mangosteen-sized campfire is jumping in the middle of the firewood pile in the middle, and here is the normal firewood.But the people here left these firewood, not because they have a certain respect for the campfire, but because they have learned a lesson.

——There are patches of fresh black stains on the ground of the firepit. According to Kunz's experience, those are dried blood.

[The campfire will attack? 】

[People without a specific bloodline will be strangled by the power of the seal if they approach the campfire. 】

【I? 】

[I said it all, you have their blood. 】

【Oh. 】

【←_← Are you too obedient? 】

[That’s why I’m able to get to the present. 】

Kunz knelt down on one knee, and slowly put his hand on the campfire. This little thing was warm, like a cotton flower, which was easily picked off by Kunz, and then disappeared into Kunz's palm .

Kunz suddenly felt that this campfire was different from his previous campfires. His own campfire, like the flame after awakening the extraordinary, was indeed his second talent. He could control them just as he could control his own hands and feet. , they are a part of him, as if they were uttered in his own throat.

But Huerta's campfire is like an extra pendant, an auxiliary tool, which must be pulled out when needed and issued with the correct instructions to obtain some of its functions.This correct instruction is the help of Butler J.

【gone? 】

[Well, let's go, you have to sign. 】

Kunz pressed his forehead, only to feel a headache.The next moment, Kunz disappeared into the firepit, and the people hiding in the dark came out, laughing loudly, thinking that the terrible robber had been destroyed together with the white flames in the firepit.

Regardless of these people, Kunz, who returned to Monroe, found that his workload increased again during the short 10 minutes when he went to get the campfire!It's not that there are more documents to be signed, but that some slave contracts will be terminated immediately after signing.

——The termination of the slave contract must be done by the master.He had to work hard to identify those people based on the identity information he had obtained in case.

Wan Wan's eyes were full of sympathy when he told him about it...

Kunz hit his head on the desk [QAQ for help]

[Call brother. 】

【Brother QAQ】

[=. = So straightforward, no sense of accomplishment.Forget it, let me tell you the difference. 】Although Laikasa is not yet the territory of Monrofi, there are players over there, and every slave is seen by the players. Butler J knows how to distinguish them, and Kunz has indeed found the right person [Yeah] ...Just help to the end, you give me a two-day slave contract authorization. 】

【? 】

[Can you allow me to manage your contract within two days?Kunz Monrofi, my host. 】

【Can. 】

【OK. 】

The next moment, all the slave contracts on Kunz's desk shone with the light of the contract being completed, and then some contracts floated up, and the names on them disappeared in large numbers.This is the first time that Kunz has seen the abandonment of the slave contract.

[Should the slaves sent by the emperor also cancel their contracts? 】

[Don’t ask me specific management questions, that’s your personal situation. 】

[Okay, I understand. ] Kunz stood up, ready to discuss with Wan.

What he didn't know was that when the contract was released, the slaves also had feelings.

Everything happened in Laikasa so fast that many slave traders didn't even know what was going on, but Geji Geji broke into the camp and killed them all.Slaves are equivalent to being in a state of no master, and masterless slaves should obey the orders of free people.

The captain is able to resist the sleepless people's middle-level contract, but the ordinary people's slave contract is not completely irresistible. Otherwise, when Meng Luofei was a slave, there would be no one who disobeyed the rules and still committed crimes up.

The slave contract is a constraint, but the slave can still resist, but in most cases, the slave owner has stronger power, and resistance is useless.Facing Geji Geji, who knows no good or evil, most slaves chose to obey.When they are treated, fed, and told to leave.

There are many people who are grateful, but there are also many who are wary, and those who think that Geji Geji is stupid and deceitful.

While some people are thinking about returning to their hometown, others are thinking about getting more benefits.

"The weapons and equipment of those creatures are so good." "Their food is so delicious." "They all come from the other side of the portal." "I heard from the tiger man that there is no food in the world of these creatures. They can live by singing and dancing every day." "What a rich place." "Is that the kingdom of God?" "Why were they born there?"

Then, the slave contract was severed.It was a psychic sensation, as if some thread had snapped in the back of my head, and a voice from nowhere said "You are free".As a result, that part of the people looked into Geji Geji's eyes and completely burned.

Kunz was discussing with Wandian whether to terminate the slave contract of Monroe non-citizens, and the charge d’affaires of the Principality of Badek came to protest—this was the lowest level of diplomatic representation that Monroe had established with other countries.

"The fault is your city lord. The other party blocked my partner's way, intending to hijack him, and Geji Geji who went to Laikasa City with him!" Kunz said righteously, he was not lying.

Although the city lord didn't say it clearly, he jumped out at that time and said that with that intention.

Molik Bardeck smiled: "I think this should be a misunderstanding. Tang De has always admired Lord Manton, and he was just impulsive. The lives of him and those stupid people should have been able to make up for him. wrong."

"Uh...he's still alive." It was also one of the few non-slaves in Laikasa who were still alive.

"Kill him." Molik replied without hesitation, "His personal behavior does not represent Laikasa City, and I don't think he can shake the friendship between Badek Principality and Monrofi, so please stop talking about Badek. The invasion of the Dukedom!"

Emmmm... It seems that there is indeed an invasion, so what should I do?For Meng Luofei, going back is impossible.But looking at the situation of this Bardek's charge d'affaires, it is impossible to let them go, then...

"Want to go to war?" Kunz asked.

Morik choked on being asked, he repeated the movement of opening and closing his mouth two or three times.On the one hand, he is not qualified to declare war on Meng Luofei. The Principality of Badek needs Meng Luofei's Geji Geji to eliminate the cracks. The Badek family is also at a critical moment of expansion. It is very inappropriate to find an enemy for yourself at this time sane.

But on the other hand, Laikasa is the largest slave trading city in the Principality of Badek. It seems that there are dozens of slave trader leaders, large and small, but in fact, more than half of the slave traders are standing behind them. The Badek family and other slave traders also paid tribute to the Badek family.Just throwing this city away, the family's interests and prestige will be severely hit.

"Please...wait a moment." This dilemma is not something he can decide.He came over to question, just to scare him. If the lord of Meng Luofei is soft, then he can of course make various demands.But the opponent directly "started a war" and smashed it down... After all, Meng Luofei's military strength has been recognized by all parties in the past.

——Many forces are looking for ways to get Geji Geji's approval in private, hoping to summon this powerful fighting creature, but so far, no one has done it.

Molik went to contact the family, and half an hour later, he came back.

"Our Principality of Badek has a long-standing friendship with the Independent Territory of Monroe, and no one wants to destroy the relationship between the two countries because of a small misunderstanding." Molik said in an official tone as soon as he came back, "But, Laika Saskatchewan is not a tiny city, otherwise, we would be happy to present this city to Monroe Fei to prove the unbreakable friendship between the two countries. So, how about changing your city?"

Kunz shook his head.

"It's such a pity." Morik sighed, "In this case, shall we have a holy duel under the witness of Ms. Libra?"

A holy duel is different from a duel, the latter is a matter of personal opinion, while the former only happens between countries.Each country sends a strongman to fight a duel with the opponent's strongman. Of course, the winner will get the pledge of the duel, but no matter the victory or defeat, the two countries must withdraw their troops, and within a certain number of years, they must not use troops against each other. Otherwise, you will be punished by God.

"Whoever wins gets Laikasa?" Kunz asked.

"No, Laikasa is already under your rule. Of course, we can't ask for her as a mortgage. We are willing to take out Iron Crystal City as a mortgage. You know, this city has just changed its name because of its underground discovery However, we have a small requirement regarding the duel." Molik gestured to "smaller" with his hand, "It is... that heroes participate in holy duels, not 'people'. After all, we We all know that you are a strong man who can fight against God."

Morik saluted Kunz and gave him a little sycophant.

In fact, in terms of absolute strength, Kunz is far inferior to the god-level powerhouses in the category of extraordinary people—the favored ones are generally a little lower than the god-level powerhouses, but they have the protection of divine power. When they really fight, they are stronger than the god-level powerhouses. powerful.Kunz's situation is a little bit similar to that of the Adjutant, which belongs to the crushing of ranks.

"Moreover, even if a hero is injured or even defeated, he can still recover. No life will be harmed in this holy duel. What do you think?"

Kunz thinks... Bardeck is really old and cunning.

The Principality of Badek is attacking everywhere, and now is the time when its military strength is tense, especially for high-end combat power. If you stay in Badek, you must stay and sit in command.After all, apart from Meng Luofei, heroes from other places are not so easy to meet and let them work, so only the living and strong can sit in charge.

But if you pay a price through proper pre-preparation, you can definitely summon the hero—you can summon the hero quickly, but it is often a matter of life and death, because the price paid is too great.

Kunz knew the heroes of the Bardek family, and their strongest fighting hero was called the slave owner John.

"There is no city in Monroe that matches the value of Iron Crystal City, what do you want?"

"What do you think of five thousand squares?"

Kunz = . = looked at each other: "Let's start the war."

"No, no, no, my way of speaking is wrong. Of course, I don't get these jigs like a slave." Although Molick said so, Kunz is sure that as long as his performance is a little softer, he will be a slave. As a price, "What we mean is that these five thousand Geji Geji can go to the place we designate and participate in the battle."

"No, they can only open cracks." If you want Geji Geji to be a thug, if you are a legitimate ally, such as the Elven Empire, then of course you can.Players really want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the big elf brothers!Although these elves are not quite the same as the elves they imagined, these elves are easier to make friends than the elves they used to imagine.

The Bardeks?Forget it, don't bother me, get out of here.

"We..." Molik felt that we could discuss it, but he looked into Kunz's eyes, "then open the crack we provided, but it must be completed within the deadline."

Kunz nodded this time: "The cracks of different ranks have different deadlines."

Molik nodded: "Of course." He also breathed a sigh of relief, this time the negotiation finally made progress.

"Then sign the contract. Wait a moment, I'll invite the lawyer."

Molik nodded more obediently, so Meng Luofei dared to use the favored person of the Lord God like this, and invited him when he said he would come.Generally speaking, the local high priest is asked to help in this matter, and even if the favored one is present, he dare not disturb easily.

More than ten minutes later, the Herrscher came, and the speed was so fast that Molik's scalp exploded - Molik originally wanted to say it, or else we can talk about it tomorrow?After all, it's night now. Although the family doesn't care about day and night, it's still... don't talk nonsense, everyone is here anyway.

The Herrscher already knew what he was doing before he came, and he unfolded a contract scroll neatly after entering the door.Let Kunz see it first, the content of the contract is written on it, and when Morik wanted to read it, he was frightened by his light glance and stepped back.

"Although you have obtained the full powers of attorney of Edmund Bardek, your status is too low."

Morik bent down and lowered his head, not daring to refute, even holding his breath.

After the Herrscher finished speaking, the code appeared out of nowhere, and was suspended in the room in an unfolded manner. A line extended from the code and slid across the unfolded contract scroll. The line was divided into two ends, one end connected to Kunz. , pierced into the void.A few seconds later, Morik felt a sharp pain in his eardrums, but he obviously didn't hear any sound. The next moment, a phantom appeared in the conference room.

However, after the phantom flickered twice, it became incomparably solid, no matter how you looked at it, it was a real person.

This is Edmund Bardeck, the Peacock Duke of this generation.

He was wearing a luxurious coat that was very similar to the captain's formal suit in the past. The thick and complicated embroidery made it difficult to see the true color of the clothes. He could only vaguely see a male peacock dragging its huge tail on the left side of the clothes, and a slightly lowered head on the right side. The peahen, the hem of his coat does not hang completely behind him, but is slightly pulled to the front of his body, and the pattern of peacock tail can be seen on the hem. Of course, his two shoes are also embroidered with peacock tail feathers.

This guy is also wearing a big-brimmed hat with a dozen peacock feathers standing on it. This hat has no tie, and I don't know what it stands on his head.

Edmund Bardeck was certainly not ugly, with long light gray hair, brown eyes, a hooked nose, and thin lips.He has a handsome head, but compared with his gorgeous clothes, it is too bland.

The author has something to say: Kunz: →_→Bad review, no peacock at all
