king of the castle

Chapter 254 Alarm

Huck swallowed his saliva and asked with difficulty: "If I tell the truth, are you sure you can give me a good time?"

"Of course." Roger's answer did not disappoint him.

"It was Viscount Wood who asked us to do this." Huck has nothing to hide now, and sighed, "He said that by doing this, the merchants will lose confidence in your territory, and they will all return to Karachi to make deals. "

"It's him again..." Such an answer did not surprise Roger, and he quickly said to Huck and the others: "Congratulations on making the right decision, so I will let you and your subordinates live without any pain." Die. As for that Viscount Wood...he will never be as lucky as you."

Roger's words made Huck smile wryly. He felt that it was definitely not a wise decision for him to fight against the lord. He was lucky to die happily in his hands. It really made people wonder what to say.However, such emotion did not exist in Huck's mind for a long time. The soldier standing behind him slashed off the long sword in his hand. Huck only felt his eyes go dark, and then he didn't know anything.

Roger let the longsword fighters end Huck and his men, and then he and the merchants slowly moved towards Kent Town.I don't know if Roger's words of intimidating Huck and the others just now worked, or he was very decisive when he ordered the soldiers to cut off their heads. In short, the eyes of the merchants Roger became a little different from before, a little less I feel a little more fearful at random, and I have more respect for Roger.

Roger didn't care about that.Although he is happy to do some actions close to the people, he doesn't mind others being afraid of him.As a lord of a place, the words "benevolent and powerful" are very important.Only by doing this can we truly convince the public and manage our territory well.

The merchants' wagons were full of goods, and the speed was slow because of the load.But since Roger had promised the merchants to go with him, as the lord, he naturally couldn't go back on his word.Fortunately, it is not far from Kent Town, so he patiently accompanied the merchants to move forward slowly.

"I tell you some good news!" Just when the town of Kent was already in sight, the voice of the castle hub suddenly sounded in Roger's mind: "The grain on the farm is ripe, and it has all been harvested and put into the castle warehouse!"

"Ha, this is really good news!" Roger's spirit was lifted by Castle Hub's words, and he said to it with a smile: "A few days ago, Eddie was still saying that the food in the town was almost gone, and now we have this batch of food." If we can persist for at least half a year, the food problem is basically solved!"

Perhaps for other lords, it is far from enough to have enough grain for half a year. After all, wheat is harvested once a year on the continent of Em.However, the wheat in the junior farm can mature once every three months, so for Roger, the most troublesome problem no longer exists.And not only the harvested wheat can be used for bread, but even the bran and straw can be used to feed livestock and so on, which can be used as a supplementary source of food.

From the day he came to the territory, Roger has been suffering from food problems.Although he had obtained some food through various methods before, and finally managed to support it until now, the food problem was not really resolved until today, which also gave Roger a little more certainty about the future of the territory. The land where people live and live has become more prosperous and prosperous.

"When! When! When!" Just when Roger was full of confidence in the future, he suddenly heard a series of bells ringing in the town of Kent not far away.

The rapid sound of the bell reached Roger's ears, causing his expression to change immediately. He didn't even have time to say hello to the businessmen who were traveling with him, and immediately urged his horse to run into the town.Those businessmen looked at each other in dismay, wondering what happened in Kent Town that could make the lord so uneasy.

"What happened?" Looking at the approaching town of Kent, Roger frowned tightly.

This bell was used by the town of Kent to call the police in case of emergency. Judging from the rapidity of the bell, the town must have encountered a very urgent situation.But at this time Roger was not in the slightest abnormality outside the town, neither the enemy was besieging the town nor any other threats, which made him immediately think that maybe the crisis came from within Kent Town.

It is said that a fortress is the easiest to breach from the inside. Roger never dared to forget this truth, so whether he is loyal enough has always been the first condition for him to choose his subordinates.Needless to say, the soldiers trained by the Castle Hub, even Roger's other confidantes had life-and-death friendship with him.Whether it is Bonnie, Chris and Phil, or Lisa, Eddie and Mike, or even Linda, they are all thanks to Roger for saving their lives.Moreover, Roger has always been very kind to them after he developed, so it is unlikely that there will be rebellion among these people, so the focus of suspicion falls on other people in the town.

Thinking of this, Roger's eyes flashed with murderous intent.If someone really dared to despise Roger's authority as a lord, then he wouldn't mind killing a few chickens for the monkeys.In this world, the strong are always respected. Sometimes you are too kind but people will think you are easy to bully.

"Grandma, as long as you dare to die, you dare to bury me. Who would have the guts to do so?" Roger secretly urged his horse to run towards Kent Town. After entering the town, he found that the situation here was quite different from before.

Many townspeople gathered on both sides of the road and whispered. They didn't know what they were discussing. Many people looked in the direction of the baron's mansion, but they didn't know what they were talking about.Usually when the residents of the town came to Roger, they would always salute and say hello to this approachable and kind lord, but when they saw Roger today, they all unconsciously turned their heads away and did not dare to make eye contact with him, as if they were trying to escape What is the same.

Roger took into account the performance of the townspeople, although he found it strange, but he had no time to take care of it at this time.Since everyone was heading in the direction of the Baron's Mansion, Roger rushed there without stopping.

Roger didn't realize until he was outside the baron's mansion that over a hundred townspeople had already gathered here.Most of these people are new faces, but there are also a few people who used to live in Kent Town.At this time, quite a few people were carrying a log and desperately bumped into the gate of the baron's mansion, while others surrounded them and shouted loudly for their actions.Everyone's faces were full of crazy grins, as if they had lost their minds and didn't know what they were doing at all.

At this time, Roger suddenly realized that something happened in his own territory.This made him furious, and he was about to call out soldiers to suppress some mobs, but he heard a man calling softly behind him: "My lord!"
