Victor’s slender fingers tapped the saddle lightly, as if hitting Bayer’s heart, making his mouth dry, cold and sweaty, and his muscles were tight as if they were compressed. The spring can burst out at any time to escape to the camp at a speed faster than the charge of the horse.

As for the hostage of the young lord who looks weak and weak, Bayer simply did not have the idea, not because of his lack of courage to take risks, but as a former vassal, he has become accustomed to the lord. Stay in awe.

What Bayer wants now is to continue to maintain control and influence over the camp, for which he is willing to pay full sacrifices to Victor.

Although Bayer is more knowledgeable than ordinary civilians, it is a pity that he is not a nobleman after all. He has reached the limit of the lord class in unconsciously: you are what I give you, I did not give you Yes, don't even think about it!

Everyone is waiting for fief lord’s statement. Bruce even took the war spear from the sergeant and put down the visor on the helmet. In his opinion, the free men who threatened the rule of the lord were not treated. The possibility of forgiveness.

Just when Victor was about to speak, a blood-eyed crow landed on a guard in the team. The guard quickly untied the letter paper tied to the blood-eyed crow's leg and handed it to Victor.

After reading the sheepskin letterhead in his hand, Victor held the letterhead blankly in his palm, and asked Bayer, who was kneeling on the ground: "Bayer, I heard that you have a gift from the Kingdom of Dodo. Brave long sword, why didn’t I see you with me?"

When Baron Wimbledon talked about the brave long sword, Bayer inwardly grumbled pretended to be nervous and said to Victor: "My lord , I have a heroic long sword, but I captured it from a wolves bandit, and it was not awarded to me by the Dodo Kingdom."

"Really? Go back and take that long sword. Show it to me. By the way, ask ten people to come out to see me. I have something to tell them.” Victor laughed indifferent expression, and then said: “Among these ten people, there must be old people, women and children. Do you understand? "

"Yes, my lord. I'm going now." Bayer said respectfully, wiping the sweat from his head, and got up and walked towards the camp.

Although I don't understand Victor's intention to call ten people out, it is clear that Fief Lord will no longer designate them as bandits, which makes Bayer a lot easier.

"Bruce, I decided to let them go for the time being." After Bayer walked into the camp, Victor said calmly to Bruce.

"Victor, I follow your will, but I still think your kindness will cause you big trouble." Bruce shrugged, handing the spear back to the squire next to him, saying indifferently .

Although it is a pity for Bruce to lose one piece of credit for destroying the bandits, it is a good thing that his men do not have to bear the risk of casualties.

"It's not just because of kindness, it's the news from Master Edwin just now." Victor handed the letterhead to Bruce with a heavy expression on his face.

"ogre!?" Bruce frowned when he read the content on the letterhead.

Just when Victor and Bruce led the team to deal with the free private camp, the scout sent to explore the entrance of the Great Swamp returned to the camp. He found ogre activities on the only way to enter the Great Swamp. trace. Edwin immediately used the Blood-Eyed Crow to pass the situation to Victor and Bruce.

"Although it is not difficult for us to break this camp, it is inevitable that there will be casualties. In order to concentrate more strength against ogre, I decided to let them go for the time being. After all, ogre is the biggest concern! "Victor said solemnly to Bruce.

"Well, ogre is really difficult to deal with, we really need to concentrate." Bruce nodded, mood grave.

Actually, even if there is no news from Edwin, Victor does not intend to wipe out these free people.

On the one hand, Victor was unable to slaughter hundreds of people in cold blood in order to maintain authority like other lords did. On the other hand, he also wanted to hide the homunculus produced in the future by accepting freedmen on the territory. .

Once a sufficient number of homunculus types have been produced, the freemen in this camp will not be able to make any waves even if they are ten times stronger.

However, despite deciding to admit these free people, Victor must also take some measures to restrain these people, otherwise the blind kindness will only be regarded as weak and deceived by ambitious.

"Nelson, I hope you can compete with this Bayer, are you sure of winning?" Victor turned his head and asked Nelson.

"This Bayer is very strong, but he is not yet my opponent." Nelson laughed confidently.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, Bayer is very likely to be the honoree of the heroic long sword. My innate talent tells me that he is a violent warrior just like you." Victor warned Nelson cautiously. To warn.

"If the Kingdom of Dodo can also grant heroic long swords to mercenaries, I can get three. Moreover, mercenaries never underestimate the enemy, because mercenaries who underestimate the enemy will not live long." Nelson Raising the axe in his hand, there was an indifferent smell of life and death in his calm words.

Victor was nodded with satisfaction, turned his head and said to Bruce: "This Bayer is good at strength, do we recruit some people in this camp to deal with ogre?"

Since these freedoms If the people are willing to become Victor's leaders, then they can't refuse to accept the lord's call, even more how ogre threatens all the people in the territory.

"ogre is a formidable opponent. Only well-trained and united soldiers can destroy these terrifying monsters. I don’t plan to take even your militiamen, and I don’t trust this Bayer. He." Bruce shook the head, denying Victor's plan.

Ordinary militiamen who have not experienced the test of life and death cannot even hold their weapons securely in front of the terrible ogre. Once these people collapse due to fear, it will affect the morale of the entire team and cause an irreversible chain reaction.

"Then we can only let them offer supplies to us."

For these strangers, Victor decided to exercise the power of lord. Moreover, collecting worship can also continue to weaken the strength of the group.

While speaking, Bayer walked back with ten men and women, old and young.

"fief lord, good day." Under Bayer's leadership, these people saluted Victor in awe.

"I am Victor Baron Wimbledon, the legal owner of this territory. I have agreed to include you as my people." Victor announced to these people.

Victor's decision made all these freedmen happy, which means that they can live on this land safely in the future.

"Bayer, show me your heroic long sword." Victor said to Bayer.

Bayer handed the hilt of the sword to Victor respectfully. Although he was reluctant, it would be a good result if this brave long sword could be accepted by the lord.

"Borg?" Victor glanced at Bayer playfully after seeing the words engraved on the heroic long sword.

"Yes, my lord, this is the heroic long sword I seized from the jackal robber." Bayer said bitterly.

"Bayer, you ask me to keep this camp, and I can agree. However, there are traces of ogre in the territory, so you must prove to me that you have the ability to protect this camp, otherwise I will order All the people here moved away."

The words of Victor made these free men commotion, but out of trust in Bayer, they quickly calmed down.

"My lord, how do you need me to prove it?" Bayer asked Victor with scorching eyes.

As for ogre, Bayer thinks this is a deliberate alarmist by Victor. Because they have lived here for more than two years. At the beginning, there were indeed many monsters here, but the strongest were the ferocious wolves. Since the York family cleared this territory a year ago, the powerful monsters are basically invisible. More and more free people come here to ask for a living, but they have never heard of ogre activities here.

"Very simple, this is my guard Captain, you only need to hold on to his hand for a quarter of an hour, and I will agree to your request." Victor flashed a cunning rays of light in his eyes, and pointed to Narr. Sen, he put the heroic long sword in his hand on the ground as he spoke.

"My lord, I need a shield." Baier suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, pulled out the lost and recovered heroic long sword, and said solemnly to Victor.

Bayer was confident to defeat Nelson. In the battle of Whitewater Castle, he even killed a trainee Knight of Sasan head-on, even more how he only had to support Captain for a quarter of an hour.

However, you can't overdo it, otherwise the captain of the guard will be injured, and the lord master will feel shameless. Today, we still need to release the water appropriately. Baier thought to himself.

Bayer did not realize that he had fallen into Victor's language trap.

Bayer didn’t know that Nelson was actually a violent warrior, and his strength was still above him. If he went all out, maybe he could still compete with Nelson, if he just wanted to With a quarter of an hour to deal with, the ending is destined to be difficult to watch.

Victor nodded, gestured back, and a guard threw the heavy shield in his hand to Bayer. This is a main body made of iron oak, inlaid with a whole piece of steel plate, and a heavy shield covered with thick leather.

Byer took it in his hand and waved it easily, and said to Victor: "I'm ready, my lord."

Nelson came up in full armor. Raised his battle axe to Bayer five meters away, indicating that he could start.

Bayer’s eyes shrank banged his long sword heavily on the shield and pulled away. His instinct tells him that this burly and indifferent guard is a strong enemy and must be dealt with carefully, so He decided to test the strength of his opponent first.

However, Nelson had no intention of temptation, and rushed directly to Bayer, slashing the opponent fiercely with the battle axe in his hand.

This axe is simple, direct and fierce and domineering. The sharp axe blade cuts through the air and utters a whistling sound. It has a tragic smell of blood.

Faced with Nelson’s unreserved axe, Bayer's heart trembled. He slapped Nelson’s axe diagonally with the heavy shield of his left hand, trying to take Nelson’s axe. Sen axe directly slapped it open.

However, when the shield and axe intersected, Bayer realized that this straight split was surprisingly powerful. Instead of being beaten away by him, Nelson’s axe carried an unstoppable giant. Forced back the shield in his hand.

Bayer's 18-point physique far exceeds that of ordinary elite soldiers, but Nelson's physique has 20 points, and his own strength is stronger than Bayer. In the face of Nelson who went all out, Bayer actually wanted to have reservations. The consequence of this information asymmetry was that he fell into a disadvantage instantly.

Faced with the sudden force crushing, Bayer showed an extraordinary martial skill. He was flustered and not confused. Following this force, he improved to retreat, rotated his body to the right, and lifted the essence in his hand. The golden long sword took advantage of the trend and flicked to Nelson.

This is Bayer's counterattack for victory in defeat. Even if he can't hit Nelson, he can push him back, so that he can get away and reshape himself.

Nelson didn’t let him do what he wanted. The martial skill of war bear mercenaries may not be as exquisite as the noble martial skill, but they are all fighting skills that have experienced the test of life and death. Once they gain an advantage, they will dash on bravely With no thought of personal safety, launch a violent and fierce attack on the opponent, and continue to expand this advantage until the opponent is defeated.

Nelson did not retreat, but instead, he used the right hand tomahawk to block the split long sword, and the handle of the left hand directly hit Bayer's chest.

Bayer had to shield his chest with a shield, and the immense power shook him back, and then he fell into Nelson's howling wind and torrential rain-like attack.

Seeing that the leader was suppressed, those freemen who watched the battle couldn't help being stunned. In their mind, Bayer had always been an invincible and powerful warrior, but now their confidence in Bayer was shaken.

It is worthy of being Lord Baron's guard Captain, and it is really not what a wandering warrior like Bayer can match!

If Bayer knew that the leaders thought this way, he would vomit blood in anger.

What is a wandering warrior? I am Captain, Viscount-sama's guard. . .

This is why Victor asked ten old and weak women and children to come out to see him. He needs these free people to witness Bayer's failure, and at the same time establish a stronger impression of the lord in the hearts of these people.

These old and weak women and children do not have any battle strength. Basically, they are impossible to Bayer's henchmen, so it is difficult for Bayer to prevent them from spreading what they saw in the camp.

Bayer didn't have the time to think so much at this time. Nelson had completely controlled the rhythm of the battle, and the continuous fierce attacks made him feel hard to resist. He was very annoyed. If at first used all his strength, even if he couldn't beat the powerful guard Captain, it wouldn't be so uncomfortable to be suppressed.

However, Bayer deserves to be the honoree of the heroic long sword. Under extremely unfavorable circumstances, he still shows superb martial skill and tenacious fighting will, and tries to regain it through clever counterattacks from time to time. The unfavorable situation, even Bruce who was watching the game was secretly nodded.

The fierce battle between these two powerful warriors made the surrounding dust fly and obscured the sight of the spectators. Only the weapons collided with each other and made a loud noise. The ground where the two had stepped became too Potholes, a mess, as if stepped on by a giant beast.

Finally, Nelson made a fierce push up and knocked out the heavy shield in Bayer's hand. Bayer staggered back several steps. He changed one hand to hold the sword with both hands. Sword, panting heavily, preparing to deal with Nelson's next attack.

But Nelson stopped attacking and stepped back. Just when Bayer was puzzled, he heard Lord Baron's voice.

"The time is up. Bayer, you have proven your ability to me, and I agree to your request to keep this camp."

Bayer looked at a loss, although Victor agreed In response to his request, he was not as happy as he had imagined. Instead, he felt that he had lost something more precious.

Victor looked at the ten freedmen who were equally blank, pointed to one of the old farmers and asked, "What is your name?"

"Lord Lord My name is Dick.” The old farmer with hair grey-white hit shivered and quickly stepped forward to replied.

"Dick, I promised Bayer to keep this camp, and now I appoint you as the village chief of this camp. I hope you won't betray my trust in you" Victor smiled and said to Dick.

"Huh!?" Dick stood in place as if was struck by lightning. The sudden happiness made the old farmer feel like he was dreaming.

"Mr. Dick, I have a few things to tell you." Victor, regardless of whether Dick in muddleheaded is listening or not, went on to say, "First, you have to tell the people of this camp. I allow them to move to my temporary camp voluntarily, and no one can stop them. Second, without my consent, this camp is not allowed to accept other free people, nor is it allowed to continue cutting down the purple cane forest. Third, as a leader People, you have to turn over to me for worship. However, considering the lack of food now, I allow you to replace it with wood, stone, minerals, and fish."

"Yes, yes, sir. I... I will do it...I will do it!" After being poked hard in the back by his companion, Dick finally came to his senses and hurriedly said to Victor.

"Very well, in seven days, I will send someone to this camp to take away the offerings, and you need to bring people to prepare, do you understand?" Victor nodded with satisfaction and said to Dick.

"Understood, my lord." Dick nodded flatteringly at Victor.

After Victor and Bruce led the team to leave, Bayer glanced at old Dick with a complicated expression, and turned and walked towards the camp.

Other people, either envious, jealous, or looking at the new village chief with disdain, also walked back to the camp one after another, leaving only old Dick still muttering on the spot: "I am the village Longer? I’m the Elder of the village!?"
