The lord is red again

Black Hoof Village, the original name is no longer clear.

I only know that this place was once a gathering place for a group of thieves.

They were destroyed by the black hooves of the iron cavalry, and the village rebuilt on the ruins was called Black Hoof Village.

According to legend, there are still thieves in the current Black Hoof Village, and a small black market has been formed. In recent times, precious props have frequently appeared in the small market of Black Hoof Village, attracting more and more outsiders and other forces.

Business began to prosper, but of course there were also bad things, and this place became more chaotic.

Aislei Leis, she was not the power controller of Black Hoof Village. When the local small lord of Black Hoof Village was still there, she once followed a blind old thief to learn to make herbs, and could simply make some pills to heal the wounded.

Later, other experiences allowed Aislei to gain extraordinary power, and the person who gave her power controlled the small market. When the other party left because of something, Aislei controlled the small market.

The lord of the village has never been clear about this, and Aislei and the other party have not had much contact.

Later, the village lord was summoned to Raven City.

The great nobles sent other people to manage Black Hoof Village.

Her life did not change much. She still made some pills to heal the wounded, opened a small market at a fixed time, etc., but the small market became more and more lively. Unlike the sporadic underground transactions in the past, it has recently developed into a real market, with more and more people coming and it is very crowded.

Aislei was worried that her small market would be exposed to the eyes of those new managers, but the high returns made her unwilling to give up the small market, and she was in a dilemma.

She picked up the papyrus letter and unfolded it flat on the table.

"Anything else?" Aislei asked casually.

But she did not answer, and she immediately turned her head to look at the figure standing at the door.

It was a man in armor, very tall.

He needed to lower his head when he entered the door, and ordinary people needed to raise their heads as much as possible in front of him, and then look up.

But he had no extraordinary power. In the eyes of many people, he was a weak tall man.

Carl, who can't speak, is a dumb dumb man.

She gently stroked the ring on her finger, frowned slightly, and then smiled with relief: "I forgot that you can't speak."

Since the village chief of Black Hoof Village left for Raven City and was "ennobled" as a noble, there has been no news. Who knows if he is really dead or lingering? It is said that the high-ranking Duke is aggressive.

There are many rumors and stories about him, but most of them are that he killed someone.

"It's news about Goliath." Aislei looked down, and her face was surprised.

Her voice suddenly became sharp: "Did he really beat Goliath?"

A new story is about to spread. No one knows how many terrible things are inside the Golden City of Thunder Forbidden Land, but everyone has already accepted the fact that no matter how much effort they spend, they can't kill the foot of the city wall.

The north-south passage was disconnected because of the loss of Goliath.

Even Eslei thought it was ridiculous when she first heard that the Duke was going to attack the Golden City, but now... there is another new story that can be spread, and it is similar to the previous type. The Duke killed someone again.

Carl, who could not speak, immediately looked up at Eslei, and this reaction was captured by her keenly.

"Why, are you also curious about that war?" Eslei discovered the abnormal reaction of the mute warrior, "That man is really powerful. The news said that he successfully entered the royal city, recaptured the palace, and even killed Prince Kurt who had turned into a dragon."

It was difficult for her to imagine what kind of picture it was with her head.

Words such as royal city and dragon king seemed to be difficult to imagine and think with the brain.

No matter how contemptuous she was in her heart, Eslei had to admit that the lion Duke Lind was a big man who was so powerful that she had to look up to him.

She gently stroked the ring again. Fortunately, that kind of big man would never notice her, and it was even possible that he would never come to this place in his life.

Eslei knew that Carl admired heroes, but she also knew that Carl was just a silly boy who had his tongue cut off because he was loyal enough.

He admired heroes and had a believer-like enthusiasm for the powerful, just like his faith. As the soldiers sent by the Duke were stationed here, Carl heard more and more stories about the Duke.

Like a demon, Carl admired the Duke very much.

Eslei was of course very clear about this, but it didn't matter.

She turned the ring again.

"Don't those soldiers like you very much? Carl, go and mix with them," Eslei specifically instructed, "I want to get more information from them, including what weapons appeared in that war, what are their characteristics, and we will find the right buyers."

In the doomsday world, resources are scarce.

However, there is no direct relationship between the total amount of resources and the total population. Even if the total amount of resources can sustain twice or more people, some people will still starve to death.

Similarly, even if the total amount of resources is not enough to support one-tenth of the people in the world today, there are still people who can live like nobles.

It is normal for a small number of people to control most of the resources.

Just like many people now spontaneously rush to the small market, some people want to buy some new aristocratic luxury goods of the new era. The beautiful waste that can't fill their stomachs is still expensive, and even has a very high collection value in many lords.

The lord who is unwilling to give his residents more than half a piece of black bread is willing to spend hundreds of people's rations to buy a beautiful gadget.

This is the norm.

In addition, there are various precious props and magic potions that accidentally flowed out from the Duke's hands. Whenever such things appear, they will be looted.

A terrifying alchemical weapon called "alchemical bomb" appeared many times on the papyrus. It is said that this powerful weapon can even blow cracks in the walls of Goliath.

Aislei is very interested in this. She knows that this is definitely a new weapon that can sell well.

"Remember!" She reminded again, "mix with them, they trust you, go and hear more news."

Until now, the existence of the small market has not been known by those soldiers.

The small market is under everyone's eyes, in the dark, but it will never hide under the nostrils.

The people sent by the Duke regarded themselves as country squires and nobles. They enjoyed worship and a leisurely life. Of course, some people complained that they should be on the battlefield instead of maintaining order here.

They always looked up and looked down on others. They were arrogant and disliked others, and therefore missed a lot of things.

It is not difficult to coax a group of high-ranking people.

Aislei guided them skillfully and showed her absolute obedience and obedience to reassure the soldiers. The current situation was that those people could see anything and now they all had to listen to her.

After she waved again, Carl, who could not speak, turned and left. Aislei muttered to herself: "A bunch of idiots, Carl's loyalty story can make people trust, are these people still living before the end of the world?"

The story of "Carl who can't speak" became the reason for those soldiers to accept Carl.

Loyalty, how much is it worth.

Aislei believes that everything has a price, as long as the price is right.

But she also likes Carl's loyalty, which is very convenient to use, even though Carl's loyalty is forced to belong to her.
