Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 61 Hunting
As the autumn harvest in Pompeii gradually passed, and the city began to be built, everything came to an end.Because one bite cannot make you fat.

Because of Luther's plan, Pompeii Territory has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it is impossible for it to develop rapidly in a short period of time.

Moreover, the strength of a lord is not only measured by the territory, population, economy, but most importantly, the number of loyal guard knights.

Previously, old Sol used his status as an alliance of the six major families to recruit a large number of reliable knights, which was already very rare and exhausted the potential of the Pompeii family.

It is impossible for the number of knights to expand rapidly.

Now Pompeii can only rely on the development of the territory, and the output of Pompeii wine is developing little by little.

As a rural territory, the south is a huge forest with no end in sight.After the autumn harvest, another thing will gradually flourish.

hunting.

Because although Pompeii is located in the south, it still has winter.Prey need to hibernate, even monsters, except for a few monsters, will reduce their activities in winter.

The energy needed for hibernation is obtained in autumn.The prey are full and full of fat, which is the fattest time of the year.

In previous years, the hunting tigers of Pompeii would form a team to go to the forest to obtain prey. Of course, they dare not go deep, because they are ordinary hunters. If they encounter monsters, they can only become a meal on the plate.

However, the hunters in Pompeii did not take any action this year, because with the expansion of the [-] strongholds, the places suitable for ordinary hunters to hunt were cleared and turned into farmland.

The hunters did not dare to go too deep into the forest, so they gave up hunting.

Besides, the agricultural situation is so good now that every household in Pompeii is busy expanding their farmland, and no one wants to go hunting in the forest.

However, there are no hunting activities among the people, and the officials want to carry out a large-scale hunting activity instead.This time it was mainly knights who were dispatched lightly and without guards.

In addition to Magellan, Luther, and Xiu Xiuya, all the knights including the lord Pompeii knight Thor and the intermediate knight Ston were dispatched.

A total of thirteen knights, divided into groups of three or four, went deep into the forest to hunt.

This is not difficult to understand.

In the past, when the territory was not expanded, the Pompeii family would also hunt. At that time, Magellan was guarding the house, and the Pompeii knight Old Sol went deep into the forest alone to hunt.

Old Sol will bring back the meat of the beast.

knight!

The body has the ability to surpass the limits of human beings. A junior knight can easily defeat a hundred well-trained guards.

Such tyrannical power makes it very difficult to train knights.Sufficient meat supplements and sufficient nutritional support are needed, and it needs to be tempered and tempered.

Just like Luther, who trained as a knight at the age of eight, it took seven or eight years to become a junior knight.

During this process, the gold coins consumed by Luther was an astronomical figure for ordinary civilians.And meat is also divided into grades and grades.

The meat of monsters is obviously much higher grade than the meat of ordinary livestock.

Commonly known as high-end goods.

It is said that some nobles will raise monsters and eat them as meat reserves, they are insane.The Pompeii family obviously didn't have that much financial resources and background.

So every year that Luther can eat monster meat, it was brought back from the forest by Old Sol.

But this is very dangerous. A junior knight goes deep into the forest and fights with the devil, basically there is no return.

But what makes Luther a little strange is that Old Sol is an intermediate knight, at least Old Sol claims to be an intermediate knight.

After he enters the forest every year, he can bring back the meat of Warcraft smoothly.The main thing is that Sol Sr. rarely gets injured.

This is very strange.

Luther sometimes even suspected that this seemingly fierce general was actually politically minded and able to unite the six major families and become the leader.

But there is no ability to develop the territory, Lord Pompeii Knight.

Hidden hand.

Commonly known as, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

But that's just speculation.

All in all, being able to eat monster meat is of great benefit to the prospective knight, and even the growth of the knight himself.

But this is not the fundamental reason for the Pompey family to go on a hunt.

The fundamental reason is that due to the expansion of the territory, the new [-] strongholds have gone deep into the forest. At this time, the knights within the family were sent to go deep into the forest. On the one hand, they cleaned up the monsters approaching the territory to prevent them from destroying the Pompeii territory.

On the other hand, the family can just inquire about the distribution of those powerful monsters in the forest, as well as humanoid creatures, such as ogre tribes, etc.

Even in the future, if the Pompeii family continues to develop, military strongholds will be established between the forest and twenty new villages as outposts for defense.

The development of a territory, especially the development of Pompeii as the southernmost territory of the Kingdom of Prussia, is definitely not an easy task.

Very, very difficult.

If the Pompeii family hadn't produced Luther, a traverser, it is estimated that in a few hundred years, it will only look like a bird now, and it will not develop at all.

Who can stand the siege of Warcraft every ten years, or even several years.

You might even meet dragons.

day.

Today is the time for the knights to go, the weather is very good, the sun is shining.Because the terrain in the forest is complex, it is not suitable for horseback riding, so the knights walk on foot.

He didn't wear heavy armor either, only light leather armor.

There are all kinds of melee weapons, such as swords, knives, etc., depending on the usual weapons of the knights.Far weapons include bows and crossbows.Each knight carried a large package, containing dry food, medicine for sores, antidote, and lost arrows.

There are also odds and ends.

In addition to the knights, there are also family members.

All Pompeii's family dispatched to see old Sol off.

"Dad, I want to eat monster meat. The rhinoceros meat last time was delicious and sweet." Mary, Pompeii, a nagging little loli who likes to chatter, is the youngest existence in the Pompeii family.

She was chattering to her father, as if it was not like a daughter talking to her father, but a high-ranking queen, ordering her subordinates.

The key is that old Saul is very strict with his sons and surprisingly doting on his daughter.

"That's a water rhinoceros. I'll hunt it back." Old Sol gently stroked his daughter's hair. The long golden hair was extremely soft, and Old Sol couldn't help but stroke it twice more.

"Humph."

Mary snorted unhappily and escaped from the clutches.

"Dad, be careful. If you can beat anyone you can beat, you can beat them down, and if you can't beat them, run away." The other loli, Lily Pompeii obviously has more little padded jackets than Mary. She waved her small fist and told Cavaliers put safety first, and there was worry hidden in their big eyes.

"Don't worry, Dad, I'm a seasoned mercenary, and I'll be fine." Knight Ston touched Lily's head with a smile.

It was almost like this, but Luther had nothing to say to Old Saul. This dad was so tough that it was superfluous to say anything.

Luther was also distracted, because he missed Miss Ruth a little bit.

The last time I invited Miss Ruth to come and hunt together, Miss Ruth wrote back and happily agreed, saying that she would come to Pompeii to play.

But it hasn't come yet.

Luther is not interested in hunting monsters, but he is still very interested in hunting common prey with beautiful ladies, not only for safety but also for fun.
