Weird Star Witch

The servant pushed the dining cart and stood trembling outside the luxurious guest room.

Sometimes the Earl of Golden Anchor would invite other earls to spend the winter in the southern continent. The guest rooms on this floor were prepared for the Earl's most distinguished guests. Now living in the master bedroom is a murderer who killed 600 serfs and a terrible wizard who almost wiped out the Knights of the Manor.

Master Kedrick's servant became the temporary steward of the manor. The new steward appointed him to deliver meals to the wizard. He could only come with courage. The new steward said that if the wizard was angered, the wizard would start a massacre again.

So many of those powerful manor knights died overnight. The servant couldn't control his legs. He didn't want to die, not at all. But he was entrusted with the expectations of the entire castle. He must not anger the wizard at this time, and he must not offend him in the slightest.

Ring the doorbell. If the wizard allows, the wizard will press the button on the desk, and a reminder bell will ring outside the door to allow entry.

Five seconds, ten seconds, the servant held his breath and counted. After twelve seconds, the response bell rang. He watched the other two servants push open the door in trembling, revealing the scene inside.

After three attempts, he pushed the heavy dining cart and let it continue to move inside.

The wizard was already sitting behind the dining table, waiting quietly.

The servant felt that if he let the wizard wait for one more second, the possibility of his death would be one point greater. These ten steps were the road to death.

When he stood at the dining table alive, the servant thought he was really the favorite of the goddess of luck.

Plates of food were placed on the dining table. The servant was very scared. Maybe when he finished placing the food, it would be his death. The new housekeeper said that if Master Kedrick hadn't stopped him, the wizard would kill everyone.

When the last fruit plate was placed, the servant suddenly relaxed his mind. It was time to sacrifice his life for Doc Manor. For the manor and his family, he should die with dignity.

The wizard spoke and let the servant petrify on the spot.

"Thank you."

Thank you...Thank you? The servant thought his ears must be broken, how could it be possible?

The servant raised his head, even if he died, he had to look the enemy in the face. This was a skill he learned when he secretly watched the knights train. No matter when, he had to look the enemy in the face, not like those stupid women, who only knew to cover their eyes, scream and kick their legs when they were in danger.

Seeing the servant looking at him, Rudolf said again: "Thank you."

At the same time, he also raised his hand, indicating that the servant could leave, and he didn't need to be served when he ate.

The servant followed the direction of the wizard's palm and looked at the door, not understanding what the wizard meant. This is the wizard's roll call, is someone going to be buried with him?

"Please leave first, you will need to clean up later, and I will notify you through the indicator bell."

Ah? Didn't you kill a few more people in the morning to refresh yourself?

The servant pushed the dining cart and walked out mechanically. He didn't react until the door closed. Did he survive?

Rudolf shook his head. This servant didn't look very good. Could he be a fool?

Rudolf didn't see Kedrick all day.

The liquidation was not going so smoothly. Maybe Kedrick encountered some troubles. If Kedrick asked, Rudolf would help.

The servants sent batches of information. These were all the information about the South Continent collected by Doc Manor, secret, public, and many.

As an important industry of the Earl of Golden Anchor in the South Continent, Doc Manor not only brews wine, but also collects intelligence about the South Continent for the Earl. This information will also be sent to the kingdom for Carloman XVI to understand the South Continent. Such an emperor always has the world in mind, and the South Continent is also a focus of Carloman XVI.

In a document, Rudolf suddenly found information that made him excited.

Sea Burial Island!

The document said that according to a pirate group's confession, they found clues to the Sea Burial Island around the Green Reef Islands in the east of the South Continent. There is a high probability that a level 5 zombie lives on the Sea Burial Island!

The Phoenix Secret Code requires three Level 5 relics. He has the Knight Relic. Of the remaining two, the Level 5 White Demon Priest Relic is easy to find. The White Demon Church, that is, the Holy Light Church in the southern continent, has many Level 5 priests. It is easy to find, but it is difficult to hunt, and it is difficult to escape after hunting.

Level 5 zombies are very rare and there are very few of them. Zombies have a strong sense of territory. Two zombies rarely meet. They each collect the corpses of apostles in a fixed area to avoid fighting. The zombies are very fragile and their style of behavior is very low-key, which increases the difficulty of finding zombies.

In the intelligence collected by Dok Manor, Rudolf finally saw the clues of the Level 5 zombies, which made Rudolf extremely excited.

After closing the information, Rudolf was a little excited. Sea Burial Island, Level 5 Zombies... This is Rudolf's next goal.

In order to keep it secret, he continued to check other intelligence collected by the palace to prevent his true purpose from being seen by those with ulterior motives.

At night, Rudolf came to the rooftop. The area around the rooftop was cleaned up and no one dared to approach. Rudolf needed to make magic weapons here. He promised to give Kedrick a full set of knight magic weapons.

Among these magic weapons, what Rudolf valued most was not the level 4 mace, but a level 2 stirrup.

For knights, stirrups are very important and can better combine knights and horses. For Rudolf, this relic brought him new magic language.

Now it is January, Capricorn month, and Rudolf has obtained his own Capricorn magic language.

This relic was made into a Level 2 magical stirrup. This magical device is only suitable for knights. The magical language it uses is the Capricorn magical language - grafting.

The pattern of Capricorn is a monster with a goat body and a fish tail. The head and upper body are goats, while the lower body is fish. This gives Capricorn, a special goat, multiple abilities and can swim quickly in the water.

After the knight uses this magical device, he can better combine himself with the warhorse under him, just like grafting his body onto the warhorse. Both sides share physical strength, making the warhorse a good helper for the knight.

This magical device is useless to Rudolph, but it allows Rudolph to master the magical language of the last constellation. So far, Rudolph has learned at least one of the magical languages ​​of each of the twelve constellations and can move towards a Level 5 wizard.

Rudolph, a Level 4 Scorpio wizard.

···

On the third night, among the grapevines of the manor, Rudolf handed all the witchcraft tools to Kedrick, and he also received 60,000 gold shields of the Gods.

"This is the common currency of the southern continent, which can avoid the trouble of exchange."

Rudolf accepted the golden shield with satisfaction, and Kedrick asked Rudolf for some poison.

"Colorless and tasteless, delayed onset, death after a few days, the target is 1 level 3 knight and 4 level 2 knights."

Without asking more questions, Rudolf handed a bottle of colorless poison to Kedrick.

"How do I detoxify?"

"Use this to neutralize the poison." Rudolf took out another bottle of red venom.

After getting the poison and antidote, Kedrick watched Rudolf's figure disappear in the darkness in the distance, and he also turned and walked towards the palace.

In the palace, Kedrick saw his current 27 knights.

Scanning these knights, 22 of them have already pledged allegiance to him, but there are still 5 knights, like stones in the pit, unwilling to kneel sincerely to Kedrick and unwilling to pay him a knight's salute.

These 5 knights are the former manor steward's fiefdom knights, no matter what, Kedrick can't get their loyalty. The steward of the manor died, and they would still be loyal to the new owner of the fiefdom, that is, the son of the former steward of the manor.

Kedrick didn't have the patience to slowly subdue a few people, so he decided to take a simpler approach.

"The wizard has left. I did everything I could. With the least loss, I scared him away with the reputation of the Earl of Golden Anchor."

The 22 knights felt fortunate that they finally sent the wizard away anyway.

The five knights who gathered together and distanced themselves from the other knights had different opinions. They felt humiliated, and they also knew that there was nothing they could do. Facing such a wizard, they could only compromise.

Compromise is also one of the skills that nobles need to master, and Master Kedrick did very well in this regard.

"Next, we have to do two things." Kedrick said: "The first thing is to send a messenger to the Earl's castle to get support from the castle as soon as possible."

Everyone followed Kedrick's line of sight and looked at the five knights who were the former stewards of the manor.

"The messenger must be loyal enough to the manor. In order to get support from the castle as soon as possible, the messenger must not be afraid of hardships and dangers. Every day the support arrives earlier, the Dock Manor will be safer one day earlier."

The five knights were excited when they saw Kedrick's sight. They were not liked by Kedrick in the first place. Now they could go to find reinforcements, which was much better than staying here and being targeted by Master Kedrick.

"You must go to the Earl of Golden Anchor Castle in the northern continent in different ways and different routes. Be careful on the road. As long as one of you succeeds, Dock Manor will be saved. Dock Manor suffered such a disaster, which made me heartbroken, sad, and kept me awake for several nights."

When he said these words, Kedrick's eyes were filled with thin tears. Knights cannot cry. This thin mist is Kedrick's most passionate emotion.

The five knights looked at each other and felt that they had some misunderstandings about Master Kedrick before. Because of the wizard's request, Master Kedrick had the manor housekeeper's house looted, which was too ugly. Now it seems that the young master is also enduring humiliation and has to compromise in front of the wizard.

The servant brought a bottle of wine and 6 wine glasses, pouring wine one by one. Kedrick had one glass, and the five knights had one glass each.

"This is the fine wine brewed by Doc Manor. Drink this glass of wine, and you will become the hero who saved Doc Manor!"

Quickly looking up, Kedrick drank the glass of wine in one gulp.

Seeing the five knights drink up the wine, Kedrick's eyes became even more sad:

"Everyone, the safety of Dok Manor, our lives, and the future of your family all depend on this messenger mission. I have prepared a letter, and I hope you can deliver it as soon as possible, and return safely with support!"

The servant handed each person a letter with the seal of the manor steward and Kedrick's seal.

"Master, please rest assured! We will definitely bring reinforcements as soon as possible!" The five knights' impression of Kedrick changed greatly, and he was worthy of being the descendant of the Golden Anchor Family.

The five messengers will use different methods to go to the North Continent and report what happened here to the Earl's Castle. This arrangement is enough to reassure the other people in the manor. As long as they hold on for a while, they will be safe.

If the wine is not poisonous...

After doing all this, Kedrick said: "Next, the second thing."

Looking at the remaining knights, Kedrick said firmly:

"Before the support arrives, the safety of the manor needs our lives to protect it!

The patrol steward Nain and the manor steward unfortunately died in battle, and the manor knights lost hundreds of people. If the surrounding forces knew that we were so weak, they would definitely take the opportunity to attack.

No matter how fast the five messengers act, the support from the Earl's Castle will not arrive for at least a month. During this period, the best way is to completely block the news and not let anyone know that there is a problem with the Dok Manor.

I declare that the knights will patrol in three shifts 24 hours a day. Only those who have my permission can leave the manor and purchase necessary supplies. We must work together to ensure the safety of the manor!"

The next morning, Kedrick rode a horse and stood on the top of a hill, watching the figures of the five messengers disappear in the distance.

His helmet is a level 3 knight helmet, his breastplate is a level 3 knight breastplate, and his weapon is a level 4 mace. The remaining shoulder armor, hand guards, leg armor, etc. are all level 2 wizard weapons.

Like the protagonist in a knight novel, Kedrick is only a level 2 knight, but he has a complete set of high-level magic weapons. Without using the power of the knight, this set of armor with the level 4 Taurus witch language-solid armor is far more powerful than ordinary armor.

According to the system of the Earl's Castle, the inspection of the patrol steward is divided into quarterly regular inspections and random irregular inspections. Now is a time of war, and the patrol stewards have to protect other more important industries of the Earl's Castle in the Northern Continent. The castle has suspended irregular inspections of various industries.

Quarterly regular inspections will not be relaxed. There are still three months before the next patrol steward arrives. This is Kedrick's precious development window.

I don't know when the Earl's Castle will suspect that Nain is dead. Kedrick and Rudolph hope that it will be as late as possible.

"Master, there is another manor ahead that is competing with us for water sources."

Kedrick put down the face armor, and a dull voice came from it: "Let's go and solve the water source problem of the manor."
