king of the castle

Chapter 13 Lionheart Emperor This chapter is free

Roger, who was hundreds of miles away, didn't know that after killing Van Doren and Lear one after another, he had aroused great interest from the mastermind behind the disaster of the undead. 【】After leading the people to trek all night, the outline of a village appeared faintly on the horizon ahead.

With previous experience, of course Roger would not rush into the village, but asked Mike to investigate first.Mike, who used to be a hunter, is naturally very suitable as a scout, not to mention that he himself has the strength of the black iron primary, even if he is bumped into by a small number of undead creatures, he is enough to protect himself.

Mike soon returned from the village to report his discovery to Roger.There are indeed some skeletons in this village, but there are not many of them. They just wander around the village aimlessly, and they don't seem to pose much threat.

After listening to Mike's report, Roger immediately understood that the skeletons found by the hunters were naturally formed undead creatures.In fact, human beings have a very small probability of being transformed into undead creatures after death. If the deceased was originally killed by undead creatures before death, then this possibility will be even greater.

The skeletons in the village are all naturally formed, and there is no unified command, so the threat to humans is indeed not great.What's more, after the black knight and the undead creatures it commanded were wiped out, Roger's spear militia still had nearly 30 people, and it was no problem to eliminate the few skeletons.

Roger soon ordered the pike militia to attack.These elite warriors searched the village in groups of three, and any skeletons they found were doomed to perish.It didn't take long for the undead creatures in the village to be completely wiped out, and Roger gained some soul power as a result.

After confirming that it was completely safe, Roger led the others into the village.This place has obviously been ravaged by undead creatures, and traces of battles can be seen everywhere.There was not a single living person to be found in the entire village, and it was disturbingly quiet.But apart from the remains of undead creatures scattered everywhere, Roger and the others didn't even find a single corpse.The corpses of the victims were obviously also transformed into undead creatures, becoming a member of the undead army.

This is one of the most frightening things about the Bane of the Undead, that they turn their victims into their own kind, sometimes even the long dead in the cemetery.For people living in the world of Turonzo, the most terrible thing is that the soul cannot go to heaven or rest in peace after death.It is also for this reason that most people hate and fear both undead creatures and necromancers.

However, compared with half-orcs, dark elves and other enemies who often invade the human world, undead creatures have at least one advantage, that is, they are not interested in ordinary human food at all.Even if the village has been cleaned by the army of undead, there must still be a lot of food left that can be used.

After confirming that the whole village was safe, Roger asked Eddie and the others to disperse to find food, while he walked into the largest house in the village to rest for a while.Now that Roger is the master of everyone, the master must look like a master, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the crowd.So after a night's trek everyone else had to work, but Roger could rest comfortably.

The room was empty, and Roger sat down in the rocking chair by the fireplace, and heaved a long and comfortable sigh.Perhaps it was due to the highly tense relationship, Roger, who had trekked all night, did not feel sleepy at all.He found a big book on the table next to the chair, so he picked it up and flipped through it.

The title of the book "The Biography of Charlie Lawrence" was written in fancy fonts on the cover of the book, and Roger didn't pay much attention to it, and flipped through the parchment casually.

It took several pages for Roger to realize that this book turned out to be the biography of Charlie Lawrence, known as "The Lionheart".This Charlie Lawrence is definitely a legendary figure in the Um Continent. More than 500 years ago, when he was only in his early twenties, he suddenly appeared on the stage of history with a very high attitude, leading a group of elite soldiers to drive away the semi-humans who invaded the human world. The orcs and the dark elves made humans regain control of the most fertile land in the south of the Um Continent.

And Charlie Lawrence himself became the new king of the United Kingdom because of this great feat.The most astonishing thing is that from Charlie rebelling against the rule of the orcs to becoming the common king of the human world, all of this was accomplished in just over ten years.Before that, the "Lionheart Emperor" was just an ordinary fisherman on the southern seashore, and he never even left the village where he lived.So I know that there is such a saying today that Charlie Lawrence was chosen by the Supreme God to save mankind, so he was able to complete such a great cause in such a short period of time.

However, there are many theories about the final outcome of this "Lionheart Emperor".Some say that he died in the palace, and some say that he was murdered by his confidantes who attempted to usurp the throne, but this biography uses the most widely circulated statement, Charlie Lawrence Defeat and die.

How Lawrence died didn't really matter to Roger.Although he dominated the entire continent when he was alive, that was more than 500 years ago.Just as Roger didn't care about how the emperor of the Ming Dynasty died 500 years ago, his book is just to pass the time.

"Master, the meal is ready." While Roger was reading, Lisa put the freshly prepared food on the table next to the chair and said, "I just made this, do you like it?"

Roger was wondering just now where Lisa, who had followed him closely all the way, had gone, but now he realized that the girl was cooking for him.Roger, who had been on the road all night, was really hungry, and he couldn't help but taste the food immediately after smelling the aroma.

In fact, this food is just ordinary giant horned venison and black bread, but Lisa's cooking skills are very good, making these two common ingredients very delicious.Roger quickly raised his head, gave a thumbs up to the nervous girl and said, "It tastes so good, I didn't expect my Lisa to have such a skill!"

After being praised by Roger, Lisa couldn't help smiling at him.But the girl hadn't recovered from the pain of the death of her parents, so this smile was a bit forced.Coupled with Lisa's red eyes from crying and haggard look, it made her look a little more pitiful, and Roger couldn't help but tremble.

"Lisa, why don't you eat something with me?" Roger felt a little love for the girl, and said softly to her, "You must be hungry after walking all night."

Lisa was taken aback by Roger's words, and the girl quickly waved her hands and said, "How can this be, you are the master, how can Lisa dine with you? I will serve you first, and then you can eat whatever you want Already!"

Seeing Lisa's resolute attitude, Roger knew that it was useless to say anything else.The world of Torenzo is a strictly hierarchical world, and it is unrealistic for Lisa to accept the concept of "everyone is equal" in a short period of time.Roger of Nye had to dine alone, while Lisa discreetly waited on him.

"This world is actually not bad. There is a beautiful and gentle girl like Lisa." Roger, who was enjoying the delicious food alone, sighed secretly with Lisa: "If only a beautiful girl like this didn't lose her temper with other people on this earth." Alright, how can I take care of others gently like this!"

In order for Lisa to go to bed earlier, Roger also ate this meal quickly.Watching Roger gobble up the food, Lisa also guessed his intentions, so before packing up the tableware and leaving, the girl gave Roger a grateful smile.Lisa's smile is so sweet and gentle, which shows that her mood is somewhat better.Looking at the back of the girl leaving, Roger couldn't help but imagine how cute she would be if she really wore a maid outfit.

Just when Roger was thinking wildly, Eddie walked into the house and said respectfully: "My lord, we have checked all the village and found some wood and stones near the village, so I came here to report to you."

Roger accumulated a lot of soul power in the battle with the Black Knight, and he was able to build the last building of the first-level castle, the primary warehouse, with only ordinary materials.That's why he specifically ordered Eddie and the others to report to him immediately when they found the wood and stones. Unexpectedly, his subordinates actually found what he needed in this small village.

In fact, Eddie and the others found not much wood and stone, but it was enough to build the primary warehouse.Roger let the others go, leaving only the pikemen on guard.After making sure that there was no one else around, Roger silently said "Open the Castle Pivot" in his heart, and in a blink of an eye he entered the secondary space of the Castle Pivot with the materials he had just found.
