Arcane Universe

The people in the territory were disappointed that Feng Chou alone came.

After introducing each other, Feng Chou knew that the two people wearing old dresses were the steward and the clerk of the territory.

Steward is a hair grey-white old man wearing a washed white dress and a crumpled cocked hat. The clerk is of the same grade, and his life seems to be even more difficult. The dress even has traces of cautiously hidden stitching

generally speaking, if the owner is not present, steward is the general manager of a territory, managing all things in the territory, and the clerk is responsible for recording the size of the territory. Affairs and accounting expenditures are steward’s supervisors.

The sturdy man in the old plate armor that doesn’t fit well is the servant of this territory. The scan of Universe Pagoda tells Feng Chou that this is a Level 4 fighter.

There are about 20 households living in the small Tuweizi, who are responsible for cultivating the five-six hundred acres of farmland.

Not far away, in a corner of Tuweizi, there was the sound of cattle and the smell of feces.

It depends on a small number of people to cultivate a large amount of land, and cattle are sometimes more important than people.

In the center of Tuweizi is a small three-story stone fort. Although the stone fort is not big, it looks like it should be thoughtful. Such a stone fort can be ten times as long as it has sufficient food and weapons. The enemy, also never want to conquer.

Not far from the stone fort, there is the most decent house in Tuweizi. In front of the masonry house, there is a large stove built with smoke from the stove.

A sturdy middle age person next to the stove, leading two sturdy youngsters, is beating a piece of red iron around the anvil.

This middle age person should be the blacksmith in this territory. There cannot be a blacksmith in a territory, otherwise production will not be possible. In this World, blacksmiths have a high status. They are often free people. In terms of identity, he can sit on the same level as Hu Cong. In such a small territory, even Steward would not dare to offend the blacksmith too much.

Scanning of the Universe Pagoda shows that the blacksmith is the second Level 4 fighter in the Tuweizi, and his two sons are also Level 3 fighters.

The Clare gentleman family does not live in the castle. In fact, three generations ago, the family had left this dangerous and dirty castle, moved to the city, and handed over the territory to Steward. The clerk, Hu always manages, this is the norm among the little nobles.

What the Claire family has to do is to hire mercenaries every year and escort the convoy to the territory to take food away and go to Antalia to sell them so that their family can maintain a decent life in Antalia.

If the excellent crops growing outside Tuweizi are normal and can be maintained until the harvest, such a territory, in addition to maintaining its normal operation, can bring more than two thousand crowns to a gentleman. income.

This income is quite a lot. According to Universe Pagoda’s estimates, when converted into Earth’s currency, the purchasing power is similar to more than 200,000 Renminbi, but at least one third of it will be spent on mercenaries. In such remote territories, mercenaries are hired almost every month to clean up the wild animals in the nearby peeping territories.

According to the rules, if the lord does not live in the territory, then the steward, the clerk and the servants who protect the territory are eligible to live in the castle.

Steward asked Feng Chou to enter the stone castle to rest, but Feng Chou politely refused, thinking of the smell of his father’s castle in Leo’s memory, Feng Chou was afraid he could not stand it.

He asked Husong about the jackals on the mission at the gate of Shibao.

Hu Cong babbled to Feng Chou and described it.

About two weeks ago, a farmer discovered the footprints of jackals by the river. The defenders immediately organized militias to track the footprints. They found a large number of them in the forest northwest of the river north. Footprints of the Jackal.

When Feng Chou asked how many footprints there were, this greasy-faced, red-bearded middle age person was taken aback for a while, and said in general: “Uh…about a dozen, who knows? You know, those footprints can scare us. These militiamen under me, without a city wall, can’t beat the jackals.”

According to Feng Chou’s orders, we have been monitoring the universe of this obedient body. Pagoda immediately reported to Feng Chou that this guy lied just now.

Leo grew up listening to the stories of mercenaries. At that time, his father Eric Knight, in order to hone his martial skills, had been among the mercenaries for several years. Most of his civilians, Knight and followers They are all his old acquaintances when he mixed with mercenaries, including the traitor.

Therefore, Leo is very clear that when accepting the task, the task information provided by the employer is not worthy of belief. If any rookie regards the information provided by the employer as true, and rushes forward without investigation, Then he is not far from death.

Even when Feng Chou took the mission for the first time, the little girl named Emily reminded him that the employer’s intelligence can only be used as a reference. Before starting the mission, he must conduct investigations to find out the real situation. She also persuaded Feng Chou to join a veteran mercenary team.

Feng Chou, who was covered in secrets, could only ruthlessly rejected the girl’s kindness, and Emily was so angry that she wouldn’t care about him.

Since he was prepared in his heart, Feng Chou didn’t have much trouble in his heart for the other party’s lies.

As long as he finally brings back enough evidence, the mercenary union will naturally seek justice for him.

This kind of little lord dare not offend the mercenary union at all, unless he is sure to defend his territory.

Since he was sure that the other party was lying, Feng Chou was too lazy to ask. He asked clearly the direction and left the territory.

Feng Chou rode a horse and walked up the river along the field path. At the end of the farmland, he saw some messy footprints on the beach on the opposite bank of the river.

Feng Chou rode across this small river ten meters wide and one meter deep.

When we came to the other side of the river, Universe Pagoda told Feng Chou that there were footprints of jackals on the ground.

For Universe Pagoda, tracking is undoubtedly the old line of business, no who can escape the tracking of the quark scanner.

Feng Chou chased his footprints into the forest.

After entering the forest about one more than a hundred meters, Feng Chou saw a large mess of footprints.

Universe Pagoda quickly reconstructed the scene based on the footprints of the scene.

Universe Pagoda turned the restored scene into an illusion and placed it in the sight of Feng Chou.

Feng Chou saw a group of wolves following a huge bison to a short distance in front of him. The bison’s body was full of arrows.

Just as the bison ran five or six meters away in front of Feng Chou, a burly jackal roared and threw a huge lance, which accurately inserted the bison Spine.

Suffering from this severe damage, the bison fell to the ground at that time.

A group of wolves swarmed up and quickly killed the bison.
