Lord of Rot

Chapter 362 Recruitment of Wandering Knight Camp
Horseshoes trod over the hot yellow sand.

The four of them rode fast horses against the scorching sun and arrived at a camp deep in the desert.

An arrow flew over suddenly, piercing a dozen feet in front of the horse's hoof.

The horseshoe was stopped by the arrow.

The wandering knight Okai who was leading the way suddenly raised his right hand as a signal.

After a while, I heard the sound of horseshoes, and several wandering knights in armor surrounded me on horses.

The wandering knight Okay lifted his cloak, took off his helmet and revealed his face: "Where's Bulwell?"

"Drink inside."

Okay knew this was the case, so it wasn't surprising.

In addition to the two wandering knights, the other two companions also took off their cloaks. Although the burly northern female barbarian Lin Yu did not wear heavy armor, her oppressive figure shocked people's hearts as soon as she appeared, and brought her own With a wave of evil spirit.

The other took off his cloak, and the exquisite face made the hearts of the wandering knights jump. They had never seen such a beautiful woman, as if a goddess descended to earth.

Okay the Wandering Knight explained, "I'll take them to Bulwell."

The team dispersed and took the initiative to give way to a path.

The wandering knight's camp was very simple, with a few earthen houses at the core and tents on the periphery.

A wandering knight with no faith and good overall strength is disgusted by people in the desert. Only under the banner of justice can he "save" some wine and money from some evil businessmen.

When the elf girl White Deer and the northern barbarian Lin Yu met Bulwell, the leader of the wandering knights, they were inevitably a little disappointed.

He's just a drunken old knight with a messy beard who doesn't even wear armor anymore.

The knight who lost his faith and broke his oath had cloudy eyes.

Bailu said: "Our adults want to hire you."

Bulwell rolled his cloudy eyes with difficulty, hiccupped before saying, "Okay."

……

The White Hart returns to Bonta Fair with the old wandering knight Bulwell.

Now the guard team at Bangta Bazaar has been reorganized. Although it is still the same group of people, the overall temperament is different. There are unfamiliar people around, and there is much less grouping.

But if you want to make this town more vibrant, you need to inject fresh blood into it to make a complete change. It's just that Baron Porcupine, who has the ability to inject fresh blood into this town, can't do business at a loss and develop at a loss. here.

Pushing open the door and stepping into the courtyard where Li Qi lived, Bailu happened to meet Kur Oasis, who was waiting in the courtyard.

Just two days after taking office, Kuer has already begun to exude the unique aura of a superior person, but Bailu knows very well that as long as he pulls out his sword and puts it on his shoulder, all the stupid appearance will dissipate and he will return to trembling the poor guy.

"Good day, Miss Bailu" Kuer greeted with a smile.

Beside him are a group of young girls, Yingying, Yanyan, standing there very cautiously. When they saw the white deer, their eyes lit up. They have never seen such a beautiful woman. It doesn't seem like a human can grow. On the contrary, it is more like the work of a master sculptor, flawless.

Bailu frowned slightly: "Are you going to use them to please him?"

It is difficult to win the attention of Baron Li Qi with his own beauty. He is not a person who will be fooled by beauty, and Kuhl is destined to do useless work.

"It's just some maids, they will be responsible for cleaning and helping adults with some small things."

The two were about to chat again when the door was opened.

It was Wendra who opened the door. He was always holding the golden Holy Grail in his hand, and the wound on his cheek seemed to be almost healed.

"Please come in!"

The crowd filed in.

When passing by Wendra, he will carefully avoid it, so as not to be sucked away by the golden holy grail.

Li Qi was still flipping through the books, and Bai Lu had known him for two days, and found that Li Qi was always reading books, all kinds of books.

There are still a few letters beside him, which should be from different families. Unfortunately, Bailu has been in Lurea for a long time, but he has always been at the bottom. He knows little about the upper-level people, so he cannot recognize who those letters are from.

Just as she was about to speak, Ku Er spoke first: "My lord, these are the maids I brought for you. They were carefully selected by me, and none of them were married."

The words are simply blatant.

The girls also boldly raised their heads to look at the handsome adult sitting on the chair, knowing that the opportunity to change their destiny is now.

When Li Qi turned the book upside down on the table and looked at them, they immediately responded with warm smiles, and some smiled shyly. Even though their appearance was much worse than that of Bailu, youthful beauty is also extremely beautiful, like a hundred flowers Compete for beauty.

And compared to the gentleness of the Dongxia women, they are bolder, like the first flower buds trying to bloom in spring.

White Deer quietly waited for Kur Oasis to be rejected.

Li Qi looked up at the girls, then nodded: "That's right, let's all stay, Wendra, let's take them to get acquainted with this place."

Wendra, who was holding the golden chalice, nodded quickly: "Yes!"

He has already assumed the position of housekeeper part-time, or...he is not allowed to leave Li Qi at all.

ha?Bailu's eyes widened slightly, which was completely different from what she expected.

The untrained girls also shouted in disorder: "Thank you, sir", "Yes, sir", "Ah, thank you, sir", Yingying Yanyan, it reminded Li Qi a bit of the little maids of Porcupine Castle wiping in front of him. Busy figure.

Kur Oasis was full of surprises. He thought that only a few of the Baron would stay, but unexpectedly all of them stayed.

He knew who he could rely on to become a lord, so making Li Qi happy would be far more beneficial than managing his own town well.

Li Qi didn't think too much about it. In the dry and boring desert, it would be too much torture if he couldn't see some beautiful girls to keep his eyes.

But in terms of eye-catching, it must be the elf girl Bailu.

Li Qi turned his head to look at Bailu, and immediately felt that he was in a much happier mood.

If I want to suffer, why should I be a lord? It’s not better to go to a monastery. The privileged class can enjoy what they should enjoy.

If all the elves in Panbo Continent were at the same level as White Deer, saving the elves would really be included in Li Qi's plan, and saving the Asian girl would also be in the plan... and it would be slightly higher than the elves.

Kool said his farewell and left very discerningly.

Seeing Li Qi's eyes looking at him, Bailu withdrew his shocked eyes a little, and said to Li Qi: "He is Bullwell."

His tone was somewhat dissatisfied: I didn't expect you to be such Li Qi.

"Bulwell?" Li Qi looked at the drunk old wandering knight, his eyes were cloudy, his waist was stooped, and his beard was unkempt.

Any old craftsman in Porcupine Collar would be more energetic than him.

"Yes" the old wandering knight nodded.

"How many people are under your command?"

"Counting me, there are 23 people in total."

"They are all from Princess Sofia's old department?"

Bulwell replied flatly: "Yes."

There are 23 knights. Now there are only two serious knights under Li Qi's command, Quick Blade and Lacey Sis, and the two of them are only high-level leaders in the territory, and they have no fief and no power of their own.

According to the normal canonization, some knights can obtain small villages with dozens to hundreds of people as knight territories, and use the small villages to support the knights themselves.

When going to the battlefield, each knight will lead a team of more than a dozen people.

With 23 knights, they can instantly become a team of three or 400 people during a war.

These are core strengths.

Then sign the militia and mercenaries in the name of the lord, and the team can expand to thousands or even tens of thousands.

But they are already wandering knights, and they definitely don't have any subordinates.

"I don't need your allegiance, I will only hire you," Li Qi said, making it clear that he would not listen to the pledge of allegiance, and everyone should not trust anyone.

Bulwell looked up. "We've never broken our vows, except occasionally to money."

Li Qi would not be so stupid as to believe the words of the wandering knights. Sometimes they are less moral than mercenaries, otherwise they would not have fallen into this fate.

"In the past two days, I have read a lot of stories about Princess Sofia, um... I have a whole new feeling."

Yes, a new feeling.

Will these novel writers die if they don't brush their edges?

Li Qi wanted to find two books related to Princess Sofia, but found that most of the books described the beauty of Princess Sofia, how straight the eyes of other men were when they saw Princess Sofia, and how straight other places were.

The rest of the content is the fantasy of the author of the diaosi novel about the luxurious life of the aristocrats, such as soaking in wine for feet, cheese and bread for armpits, and chewing grape juice.

After reading it, Li Qi wished he could arrest the writer of novels, and then find an 80-year-old lady to do it for him in person. It must be the kind with bad breath, body odor and beriberi!

Anyway, I'm from Dongxia, so it doesn't matter if I verbally support Li Qi, Princess Sophia's old army.

It was the Earl of Buffalo who should be troubled.

But looking at the wandering knights like this, I know that the Earl of Buffalo probably didn't take them seriously at all.

"Don't worry about the oath, Bulwell." Li Qi said, "We can have a cooperative relationship. I am willing to spend 20 silver months a month to hire a wandering knight to work for me. The main work may include urgently training a group of Soldiers available, guarding captives, and escorting caravans.”

It is still a mercenary, but the price is much more expensive than that of a mercenary.

Aside from dishonesty, disloyalty, capriciousness, and untrustworthy shortcomings, all wandering knights are talents.

Bulwell said: "Willing to serve you, my lord."

If this was a game, Li Qi must have been reminded by now that he successfully recruited a group of wandering knights.

The number is 23 people, and the monthly expenditure is 460 silver months.

Loyalty: 0 (Warning: Loyalty is too low, may rebel at any time)

Li Qi smiled: "There is just a time for you to work."

The old wandering knight raised his head, quietly waiting for Li Qi's order.

"I don't know if you know the Baron of the Golden Cauldron?"

The eyes of the old wandering knight with cloudy eyes flickered sharply, and the elf girl White Deer standing beside him was keenly aware of the danger, as if lying beside him was an old lion with many scars.
