Chapter 268 The Wood Family Disappeared

Although Roger had a smile on his face, Wood felt a bone-chilling chill spreading all over his body. 【】He knows very well that the conflict with the other side can no longer be reconciled. Although there is no formal war between the two sides, it has actually reached the point where there is no end to death.Now not only Wood himself fell into Roger's hands, even the Viscount's mansion was under his control, not to mention Wood's own life, even his family might not be spared.

Although Wood was despicable and opposed Roger everywhere, he was still a viscount after all, and he still had basic self-esteem.Knowing that Roger would never let him go, he straightened his chest and said, "If you want to kill, kill him, why bother talking so much nonsense!"

"Okay, you still have some courage if you don't come out!" Roger sneered, and stabbed Wood with a sword.

Wood had seen Roger's skill just now, and knew that he was not his opponent at all, so he could only close his eyes and wait for death.As soon as Wood's eyes closed, he felt a sharp pain in his thigh. It turned out that Roger had stabbed him heavily at the base of his thigh.

Wood has always been pampered, how could he bear such pain?He yelled and fell to the ground, his face was pale and he said in a miserable voice, "You... what do you mean?"

"Oh, the stab missed!" Roger didn't pay attention to Wood at all, but gestured to his crotch with the sword in his hand: "This sword must stab, hold on, hold on!"

Seeing that Roger's gaze was only fixed between his legs, how could Old Wood fail to guess where he wanted to stab himself?Even though Old Wood had already made up his mind to die, he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat from fright at this moment.It's one thing to be killed with a sword, but it's another thing to suffer a lot of pain piecemeal, even having the most important parts of a man chopped off before dying.For old Wood, the latter method of death was too terrible, so terrible that he could not accept it at all.

Roger knew from the expression on Old Wood's face that he was afraid, but he pointed his sword at him deliberately and said, "Don't move, if this sword still fails, I don't mind stabbing a few more times!"

Trembling with fright from Roger's cold tone, Old Wood finally couldn't help asking in a trembling voice: "You...what do you want to do?"

"It's very simple, tell me why you keep targeting me, and I'll let you die quickly." Roger said the question he was really interested in without changing his expression, then stared at Wood with burning eyes, only waiting Let him answer the question.

Although Wood was calmly going to die just now, he no longer has the courage just now when he vented his courage. When Roger asked him, he immediately replied: "Master Vatel, the Minister of Military Affairs, asked me to do this. He wants I will try my best to deal with you, and I will definitely not allow you to gain a firm foothold in the territory and develop."

"Thank you!" Roger finally got the answer he wanted, smiled faintly at Wood, and stabbed the sword into his chest.

The viscount's eyes suddenly widened, and then his whole body softened slowly, and finally exhaled his last breath.I don't know if he regretted it when he was dying, and he shouldn't fight against Roger again and again in order to get on the big ship of Vettel.

During the time Roger and Wood were talking, his soldiers had wiped out the last few remaining enemies and fully grasped the situation in the hall.

Under Roger's order, the soldiers scattered and searched the big house in accordance with the old rules. The first thing to do was to find out all the servants and servants hiding in the house, and the second was to find out all the servants and servants hiding in the house. Last favorite thing to do is loot loot.

The soldiers were divided into many groups to search the big house, and every time they found a person, they tied up each other and sent them to the hall on the first floor.These people hiding everywhere are ordinary people like maids and male servants, and almost all of them have become captives honestly.The few who dared to resist were cut down by the soldiers without hesitation, and the rest were tied up in a string and held in the hall, and a few soldiers were in charge of guarding.

Every servant saw Wood's body lying on the stairs, and they couldn't help feeling uneasy.Even the lord has been murdered by these people, his fate is really worrying.A few timid maids were already sobbing and crying, and the others were also pale, as if the end was coming.

While the soldiers were busy, Roger was not idle. He asked a guy dressed as a butler to find out the whereabouts of Albert, and neatly beheaded the only heir of the Wood family.Of course, Roger knew that his Wood family could be said to be at odds with each other. The so-called "cutting the grass and not eradicating the roots will regenerate when the spring breeze blows", of course Roger will not leave Albert as the root of the disaster.

"From today onwards, the Wood family will be officially expelled." Looking at Albert's body, Roger muttered to himself, "Why do you keep fighting against me, otherwise we might still be good neighbors."

But after today's trouble, Roger has already killed the neighbor father and son, so he will naturally not be polite and start to steal other people's homes.Two soldiers quickly discovered the dark room hidden in Old Wood's study, and there were indeed many good things hidden in it.

Roger asked the soldiers to move out all the things inside, while he counted the harvest on the side.The Wood family has been running this city of Karachi for several generations, and they have indeed saved a lot of good things.The soldiers found two boxes of gold coins, a large bag of gems of various colors, a few pieces of mithril ingots, a lot of magic beast crystal cores and magic crystals in the secret room.In addition, there are two sets of well-made full-body plate armor, which must have been left by the ancestors of the Wood family.Aristocratic families like this that have been passed down for several generations have always had the tradition of keeping the armor worn by their ancestors.

Roger is not very interested in armor. He has a good relationship with the dwarves of the Hammer tribe. If he wants armor, just ask those dwarves.On the other hand, other harvests made Roger very happy, especially the Warcraft crystal nucleus and magic crystal. Most of the time, there is a price market, and you have nowhere to buy it if you have money.Right now Roger is planning to upgrade the castle to level four, but he needs a lot of similar special materials.With these Warcraft crystal nuclei and magic crystals, it can be regarded as solving part of Roger's problems.

Roger's action this time not only destroyed the Wood family, but also gained so many benefits, which can be regarded as a fruitful harvest. The next question before him is how to get Bonnie out of the city of Karachi.

Anyway, there was nothing more to do in the Viscount's Mansion, so Roger hurried back to the outer wall.He soon discovered that compared with when he left, there were many traces of the fierce battle on the wall.There were bloodstains on the wall, and there were many corpses lying here and there. Obviously, the soldiers outside also launched a fierce attack during the time Roger left.

When Roger came back, Bonnie hurried up to meet him and asked, "How's it going inside?"

"It's done." As soon as Roger finished speaking, he found that Bonnie's arm was tied with a bandage, and asked anxiously, "Are you injured? Is it serious?"

Hearing the deep concern in Roger's words, Bonnie couldn't help feeling warm, and smiled at him and said, "It's just a minor injury, it's okay!"

Although the female knight said it easily, Roger frowned.Even the strongest Bonnie was injured in the battle, which shows how strong the offensive of the enemies outside is, so it is not so easy to break through smoothly.

While Roger was worried about how to break through, Royce, the captain of the viscount's guard, was also frowning.It has been a long time since the Viscount's Mansion was occupied by people, but this group of guys of unknown origin are still firmly occupying the walls of the Viscount's Mansion, which made him more and more uneasy.

In order to ensure the safety of the lord as soon as possible, Royce has dispatched all the city defense forces of Karachi City to attack the Viscount's Mansion, and more than 3000 people are currently surrounding the Viscount's Mansion.However, the enemy was far more tenacious than he had imagined, and several attacks were repelled by the opponent.The city defense army suffered heavy losses, with more than a thousand casualties.Although some enemies were also eliminated, the wall was still firmly in the hands of the opponent, which really frustrated Royce and other officers.

Because the Viscount's Mansion is located in the heart of Karachi City, several siege vehicles of the city defense army could not come to support it at all.Soldiers can only use ladders to climb to the wall, and the losses caused by this method of storming are naturally extremely huge.

Some officers also suggested using catapults to attack the Viscount's Mansion outside the city, but it was immediately rejected by others.The accuracy of the catapult is not to be admired. If it did not hit the wall of the Viscount's Mansion but directly hit the Viscount's Mansion, then everyone would be guilty, so Royce finally decided to use the old method to attack.

Royce believes that after repeated battles, the opponent's losses are as great as his own, and those surviving enemies have long been exhausted.In this situation, as long as they continue to put pressure on the enemy, they will collapse completely sooner or later, and this will also allow them to make a move to threaten the lord.

Royce is still very confident about whether Wood is safe, and feels that at least in the short term he is absolutely safe.After all, there is still a viscount guard in the Viscount's mansion, and there are two magicians and a few bronze-level powerhouses in charge, so it shouldn't fall so soon.

Royce hadn't overestimated the defense strength of the Viscount's Mansion. At this time, he didn't know that Old Wood and Albert had been captured.If Royce knew about this, he would use the catapults outside the city to attack the Viscount's Mansion recklessly. In that case, it would be difficult for Roger and Bonnie to escape unscathed.

But even if the opponent only used the most common method to attack, it put a lot of pressure on Roger.After a series of battles, it turned out that nearly half of his more than 500 soldiers had been lost, and now there are only more than 300 soldiers left.However, the number of surrounding enemies is ten times that of Roger's men. Now these soldiers are divided into several groups, and they are approaching the wall with ladders, causing Roger to frown.

"Sooner or later, we will be surrounded by these guys." Roger said worriedly to Bonnie beside him, "We must find a way to break through."

Although Bonnie also agrees with Roger's method very much, she has no idea about this kind of "asymmetrical combat" and can't think of any good way at all.

"What should I do?" Roger looked around while thinking, his eyes lit up when his eyes fell on the group of captured servants, and he said to the female knight with joy, "I have a solution!"
