Chapter 27 Twenty-seven·Departure and take office in Oak Village.

The scorching sun is high and the sun is shining brightly.

Early in the morning, the kingdom knights got up early and put on the "Lost Knight" plate armor awarded by the system.

The dark silver plate armor is shiny and fits perfectly, with a good degree of relaxation at the joints. The total weight is about thirty kilograms, which is just right for Lailan, no more, no less.

Standing in the room, in front of the translucent glass mirror as tall as one person, I looked like a feudal knight in the mirror.

"Sir Lailan! Lord Creel and the others are already waiting for you downstairs!" Ranger Albert's voice came from outside the door. "Shall I go to the stables now and bring out your war horse?"

He only knew that he was going out with Lailan today, but as to where he was going, Albert had no idea.

Of course, as a ranger, he doesn't care where he goes.

When the ranger was about to knock on the door, the wooden door opened from the inside, and a fully armed knight stood in front of Albert.

"Wow."

The ranger froze on the spot, his mouth slightly open, his eyes wandering back and forth on the tall figure in front of him.

"What's wrong, Albert? You don't recognize me after not seeing me for one night?"

Lairon took off his helmet and reached out to comb back the long hair at the ends. He was very satisfied with Albert's reaction and said with a bright smile: "Did it surprise you?"

"This is me."

".Oh my god"

Albert bared his teeth for a long time and sighed helplessly: "The moment I opened the door, I thought I knocked on the wrong knight's room."

"Since yesterday, I have been a knight of the Kingdom of Midden." Lailan reminded, patting the ranger on the shoulder with his thick gauntlet. "Let's go, it's time to set off."

Albert followed the kingdom knight closely and shrugged: "Then I am even more curious about where we are going today, Lord Lailan."

"My fief is also the place where you will stay in the future." The knight of the kingdom did not explain much and walked down the stairs alone.

In the morning, the tavern lobby is far less lively than at night, but travelers staying in the hotel will choose to go downstairs to have a simple breakfast.

A fried egg, a glass of milk, and a bowl of oats or a piece of brown bread cost only 12 copper coins.

When Lailan went downstairs, the sound of eating oatmeal in the hall stopped.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the heavily armed plate-armored can. The cross badge on the latter's chest symbolized his status as a knight in the kingdom.

A bartender came up to him, his Adam's apple bulging, and he bowed deeply to Lailan at the top of the stairs. "Sir Knight."

"Yes." Lailan expressed his expression, his heroic face full of majesty, and raised his hand to ask the bartender to stand up. "Is Boss Philda in the pub?"

"Go back to Sir Knight, the boss went to pick up some guests last night and he hasn't come back yet."

"I understand." Lailan nodded and looked around the hall. Everywhere he looked, everyone was full of respect for him. "Prepare three breakfasts for me, and then go and invite Mr. Creel outside the door."

"yes."

A moment later, a tall figure strode in and said in a bold voice: "Laylan! You are not in a hurry!"

"Kriel, come and sit here." Lailan raised his hand, pointed to the opposite side of the table, and said with a smile: "You didn't even let me eat a piece of bread, and you rushed to the fief in a hurry. Are you going to let me drink the cold wind on the way?"

"makes sense."

Creel sat unceremoniously across from the kingdom knight, and the guests staying in the hotel all expressed surprise.

"Isn't this our city defense chief?"

"He seems to be very close to this kingdom knight."

Two minutes later, the breakfast ordered by Lailan was delivered. The omelette was fried with a ring of crispiness, and it seemed that butter was specially used. Three bowls of oatmeal were evenly colored, and the smell made people appetizing.

"Laylan, the reward given to you by the earl has been loaded in the carriage on the road outside."

Creel took a bite of half an omelette, raised his head and drank the milk in the mug, and said lazily: "150 gold coins, 4 knight uniforms, and the 10 sets of standard infantry armor you want.

10 halberds, 5 crossbows, 200 crossbow arrows, etc. are all installed."

"Do you think what you want is like a knight?" The captain of the White Wolf Knight Company chuckled and said carelessly: "If it were me, I wouldn't want any of the frivolous things. The rest would be converted into money and I would buy one in Bray Town.

In the courtyard, or in the inner castle."

"As for the fiefdom, leave it to the tax official to take care of it. Taxes will be collected normally every year. You can live in the town by yourself, and it will be very convenient to have good food and drink~"

Lailon smiled and did not refute anything. He just said: "I like the feeling of running a territory, and the achievements I get from it are very fulfilling."

Creel tilted his head and nodded, and said without humility: "As for me, I am suitable for leading troops in war. When I have nothing to do, I can go out hunting with my wolf cubs and catch some animals. How comfortable it is."

He patted the table and said helplessly: "But when I sit in front of the desk, my head hurts. As long as I don't read those messy words and the curtains like flies, my head will be much cleaner.

Just leave the fiefdom to my elder brother to take care of it, so that you can save worry and effort, hehe."

There is some truth in what Creel said. The main responsibility of a knight is to protect, protect the empire, and protect mankind. There are very few knights who are capable of civil and military skills, and can kill the enemy on horseback and govern the country on horseback.

However, most of the rights in the territory are controlled by the knights. If you encounter a knight who knows nothing about government affairs, it will only harm the people of the territory. It is better to leave it to someone who is capable and take the money and enjoy it in peace.

Lailan paid the bill, walked out of the Humming Tavern with Creel, and headed towards his territory with his ranger companion Albert and a team of 10 White Wolf Knights.

When he was about to leave Bray Town, the Kingdom Knight looked back at the eye-catching Sigmar Church on the east side of the town and said nothing.

Along the road of the Earl of Delavan, a group of more than a dozen people walked forward leisurely.

The war horses under their crotch are considered to be excellent breeds in the northern part of the empire. In the earldom of Delavan, there is a town whose specialty is horses.

The horses in the North gallop at speeds of up to 20 kilometers per hour. At their fastest, they can run 150 kilometers in a day. This is extremely rare. Let’s not talk about the endurance of the knights and horses. The rugged roads alone make people aware of the situation.

Retreat from difficulty.

After leaving the town of Bray, the scenery gradually became different along the way, with uncivilized wilderness and dense woods filling the horizon.

The autumn sunshine is warm, and the roads between the wilderness have obvious ruts. Wherever businessmen and travelers pass by, the roads will also be opened up.

Heading south along the York River, the cold autumn wind blew the treetops.

"Your territory is ahead, Lairen, and it's about one kilometer away." Creel said, looking around.

The white wolf knights escorting the group laughed loudly. The believers of the Wolf God loved the wild environment very much. There would be unexpected prey in the black forest. If you were lucky enough, you might meet a white wolf.

No wonder the White Wolf Knights are called "wild wolves with the smell of wolves" by other knights.

There are many plains in the Midden Territory, and rugged mountainous landforms are only common in the Hawk Territory in the central mountains and the Roof of the World Mountains. Within the territory of the empire, the land is fertile, but very little is cultivated. Public security is one aspect, and the pressure of the territorial residents is

This is also one aspect.

"Ho ho. Massacre!!!"

"Help! Help!"

There was a strange sound coming from the corner in front of the group.

"It seemed like someone was calling for help." Ranger Albert's ears were very sensitive and he listened attentively. "I also heard the sound of hoofbeats, the number of which was no less than ten."

"No matter what it is, you'll know just by looking at it. It's probably a group of bandits!" Creel snatched up his horse, drew out the sword from his waist, and shouted at the White Wolf Knights: "Get ready to fight!"

"Ha!" The eyes of the White Wolf Knights were full of excitement, and they raised their warhammers and swords in the air. The brave warriors were ready to offer sacrifices to Yurik.

"drive!"

"Drive! Drive!"

Lairon rode his horse with one hand, and Creel and others rushed forward, the Hram hammer in his hands shining brightly in the sun.

"Help! Someone come and save me!" An Imperial man dressed as a peasant was covered in mud. He was followed by more than a dozen horned beasts, waving rotten swords, and their scarlet beast eyes revealed their lust for humans.

The panicked farmers saw Lailen and his party rushing out from the road, and shouted in a hurry: "Sir Knight! Help me!!"

"It's the beastmen! Kill them in the name of Ulric!"

Creel took the lead, and his wolf-like war cry greatly boosted morale. The white wolf knights swung their war hammers and rushed forward like flying.

"For Ulric!"

"For the White Wolf God!"

The galloping horse's hooves hit the ground and splashed a lot of dust. The war horse under Creel's crotch leaped high and slammed into the crowd of beasts. The horned beast at the front flew into the air during the fierce impact.

"Kill!" Lailan rushed into the battlefield not to be outdone, and with one swing of Hram's war hammer, he smashed the filthy heads of the two horned beasts, leaving only the headless corpse to fall to the ground.

The two of them killed most of the half-horned beasts with a single charge. As the white wolf knight rushed in, the horned beasts that were chasing the farmers were quickly slaughtered.

The battle ended quickly, with the frightened farmer squatting behind him, his hands trembling, obviously not recovering from the danger.

"These beasts are weak and disgusting. They can't kill them all no matter how hard they are. They have the same virtue as the green-skinned orcs!" Creel put away his sword and spat fiercely on the corpse of the horned beast.

The white wolf knights dismounted and began to clean the battlefield. They cut off the heads of the horned beasts with their long swords. These chaotic creatures had extremely strong vitality and could get up without paying attention.

They looked at the several headless corpses and couldn't help but glance at Laeren. The horned beast was beaten to pieces by Herram's war hammer, and it was so dead that it could no longer die.

Creel walked up to the ragged man, motioned him to get up, frowned and said in a cold tone: "Don't you know it's dangerous for a person to run into the wild? If you hadn't met us today, you would have been killed by these beasts.

Disemboweled!"

"Thank you, Lord Knight! Thank you, Lord Knight!" The man got up cleanly and kept bowing to them to thank them.

Lailan also had no good impression of the rash guy, and said in a serious tone: "Which village are you a resident of? Why are you here?"

The farmer looked at Lailan cautiously and hurriedly requested: "Please, Lord Knight, save Oak Village! If it's too late, the men, women, and children in our village will be eaten by those beasts! Please Lord Knight, please save our village!"
