king of the castle

Chapter 31

"Er...what's the matter?" Roger asked subconsciously, and then realized that there were no undead creatures in front of him. 【】After a tough battle, he finally wiped out all the undead creatures.

Among the hundreds of undead creatures besieging Oak Town, only the fallen giant skeleton warriors were still struggling.However, they no longer pose any threat, and a few spear militiamen quickly stabbed weapons into their eye sockets, completely extinguishing the fire of their souls.

And Roger also absorbed the two most powerful soul powers in this battle. According to his own estimation, the strength of the giant skeleton warrior's soul power is at least equal to dozens of zombies.This is the so-called high-risk high-reward, the more powerful and difficult the enemy's soul power is, the stronger it will be.

Looking at the wreckage of the undead creatures around him, Roger couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.The situation just now was too critical, and now thinking about it, he still feels a little scared.However, when Roger thought of the situation in front of him, his brows that had been loosened just now were frowned again.

Although the enemies besieging Oak Town were completely wiped out, Roger's losses were not small.Before entering the town, he had more than 30 pike militiamen under his command, but now there are only four left.This is also the result of Roger's constant replenishment of reinforcements throughout the battle, otherwise he would have been a bare-bones commander by now.

Fortunately, although Roger paid a considerable price, he collected even more soul power.Moreover, after many battles, the four surviving spear militiamen also had a golden line on the cuffs of their combat uniforms, indicating that they had changed from recruits to veterans.This also shows that the combat effectiveness of these four soldiers has improved by a level compared with ordinary spear militiamen, and they can definitely be called a strong force in the queue of spear militia in the future.

The castle hub was obviously very satisfied with Roger's harvest this time, and he laughed in his consciousness: "You did a good job this time, and the soul power you collected is enough to upgrade four castle buildings. You can upgrade to a third-level castle!"

Roger was not as optimistic as Castle Hub. For some reason, Marcus's hypocritical smiling face was always shaking in front of his eyes.So he didn't brag in front of the castle hub like before, but solemnly ordered: "Continue to train the soldiers, don't stop, the sooner the better!"

Hearing that Roger was worried, Castle Hub immediately followed suit without further questioning.Since the upgrade to the second-level castle, the speed of training soldiers in the castle hub is also faster than before. Basically, a spear militia can be trained in about 10 minutes.Roger estimated that in just two more hours, the strength he possessed would be able to steadily overwhelm the mercenaries under Markus, so he felt a little more at ease.

As the gap in the wall fell silent, Roger's followers were the first to flock to him.Looking at a messy battlefield, everyone could think of what a cruel battle their master had gone through just now, and they looked at him with admiration.

Lisa leaned even closer to Roger's side, even her delicate body was trembling slightly.The reason why the girl did this was entirely because of nervousness. When she thought of how dangerous Roger was in just now, she couldn't help but feel scared.

Roger also understood Lisa's thoughts and hugged her gently to show comfort.At this moment, he knew how important his position was in the heart of this beautiful girl, and he felt very happy from the bottom of his heart.

The residents of Oak Town also came out of their homes one after another, and everyone felt terrified when they saw the scene at the gap.They hid at home and only heard the sound of the battle. They didn't know how fierce the battle was just now until they witnessed it with their own eyes, especially the remains of the two giant skeleton warriors surprised everyone.

Many people looked at Roger with reverence and gratitude, and some people already felt in their hearts that if Roger and others hadn't happened to come, Oak Town would definitely not be able to escape today's catastrophe.

Marcus and his mercenaries were the last to appear.The fat man greeted Roger with a smile as always, and said a lot of words of gratitude, but he didn't say a word about whether he wanted to sell food to Roger.

Roger also said that Marcus's smile was more forced than the previous few times, the fat man was obviously preoccupied now.But he didn't bother to chatter with this hypocritical fat man, he just said that he was exhausted after the battle with the soldiers and needed to find a place to rest.

Markus immediately patted his chest and said that the matter was on him, and then hurried away shaking his fat, saying that he wanted to find the most comfortable place for Roger and the soldiers to rest.

"This old fox! He and his subordinates didn't show up when we were fighting the undead creatures just now, but now he came out and pretended to be a good person!" Mike didn't have the slightest affection for Marcus, and said to Roger bitterly after he left: "Master , This kind of person who betrays his allies is simply untrustworthy, don't be fooled by him!"

"Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion." Roger responded lightly, and then said to Mike: "You take the others to rest, and leave here as soon as you get enough energy. The undead creatures failed to occupy the oak tree this time. Town, we will not let it go, we can't stay here for long."

Mike took Roger's words deeply, and immediately took a few companions who participated in the battle to rest.Roger also quickly checked into the hotel in the town under the arrangement of Marcus. When he was lying on the big soft bed, he realized that he was really exhausted after the fierce battle just now. I don't even want to move my fingers.

Lisa stood by the bed and patted Roger's back lightly, hoping to relieve his fatigue.Under the tender service of the girl, Roger soon fell into a deep sleep.

While Roger was resting, Marcus was looking sullenly at the hotel across the street from his own quarters.He had noticed the townspeople's attitude towards Roger just now, and the narrow-minded fat man felt a huge threat. He was afraid that Roger would continue to stay in the town and pose a threat to his status.

"Master Marcus, are you worried about that guy named Roger?" A person asked in a low voice behind the fat man. It was Ivan who had clashed with Roger and others before.

Markas didn't answer Ivan's words, but just sighed softly: "I'm afraid this Oak Town will not belong to us soon!"

"My lord, I have a way to let you regain the initiative." Ivan first smiled darkly at Marcus, then leaned forward and whispered something in the fat man's ear.

Ivan's words made Markas nod frequently, but after thinking about it, the fat man still asked worriedly: "It's not difficult to incite those stupid guys, but what if Roger wants to fight us?"

"Don't worry, my lord, he only has four soldiers now, can't we fight four?"

"Well, you're right." At this point, Marcus was completely relieved and said, "You can do this matter, and the girl next to Roger will be yours after it's done!"

"Thank you, sir!" Ivan quickly thanked Markas, and then left to implement his plan.In the dilapidated Oak Town, a conspiracy against Roger quietly began to brew.
