king of the castle

Chapter 406 Griffon Knight

Seeing his son's death at the hands of the slave catchers, Benn was naturally sad and angry. 【】However, the thinking of this father and son is indeed a little different from others. When something like this happened, what Ben hated the most was not the slave catchers, but Roger.

If Roger hadn't appeared when Ben came, the slave hunting team wouldn't have followed, and his son wouldn't have been on the battlefield if the slave hunting team didn't come.More importantly, Roger's soldiers failed to protect Han Sai, which caused him to die in battle.So everything is the fault of this lowly and despicable human being, no matter what happens, he cannot be let go!

Biebern is now a handsome elder elf, but also a good thief.Although his strength is not as strong as Elvira's, he feels that it is not a problem to assassinate a human lord who can only play tricks.Looking at Roger who was receiving condolences from his family, Ben's eyes showed a deep murderous intent.

That night Roger was left in the camp by the Crescent Moon Elf.Although the elves did not allow humans to spend the night in their camp before, Roger's performance today convinced all the elves.So when Elder Ben proposed to let Roger rest in the camp for a night before leaving, almost all the elves agreed.

The elves were indifferent by nature, and although they kept Roger as a guest, they didn't hold any lively dinner parties or the like.It was only after a few elders came to express their gratitude to Roger, and let him stay alone in the specially prepared guest room.

Roger originally thought that the night in the elf camp would be spent peacefully, but he never thought that he would be assassinated by an unknown person in the middle of the night!

Fortunately, Roger had a magic ring close by, and the assassin's inevitable blow was completely blocked.Then Roger would not let the opponent have any more chances, the sword pierced out like lightning, and firmly nailed the sneak attacker to the wall.

"Ah...uh!" The dying assassin let out a shrill scream, which woke up the entire crescent moon elf camp.Roger didn't think about it at all, he just drew his sword and waited for the battle, and at the same time, he was ready to call soldiers to fight at any time.Anyone in his current position would think that this was a plan arranged in advance by the elves.Thinking that he sincerely came to fight for peace, and also helped the elves eliminate the slave hunting team.These guys actually repay their kindness and send people to assassinate themselves in the middle of the night. Roger couldn't swallow this tone no matter what.

"Mr. Li, what happened?" The elf quickly rushed to Roger's residence, and it was Randolph who shouted under the tree: "We heard screams just now..."

"Someone tried to assassinate me!" Roger interrupted Randolph coldly, "Elder Randolph, do you know who did it?"

As soon as they heard Roger's words, the elf elders knew that something was wrong.Although they really knew about this matter, they also knew that Roger would definitely not think so.Several elders quickly exchanged glances, and it was Randolph who said: "Mr. Li, we crescent moon elves really know about this matter. If you agree, can you make me look like a murderer? Don't worry, I'm the only one coming up, and absolutely no one else."

Hearing that Randolph's voice did not seem to be fake, Roger agreed to his request after a moment of pondering.Anyway, Roger can summon thousands of soldiers with a single thought, and he is not afraid of the elves playing tricks.If this was indeed a conspiracy hatched by the crescent elves, Roger wouldn't mind an all-out war against them.

Randolph walked into the tree house cautiously. In order to reassure Roger, he specially raised a torch to illuminate the surroundings, so as to show that no one else came up with him.Under Roger's supervision, Randolph lights up the magic lamp in the tree house, and gently removes the mask of the assassin who was pierced by Roger's sword.

"Ah?!" Even Randolph couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the assassin's appearance.Roger raised his head cautiously, and found that it was Han Sai's father Ben who died in his room!

At this moment, Roger immediately understood the whole story, and also knew that this matter had nothing to do with the crescent moon elves.Benn must have blamed himself for his son's murder, so he came to assassinate him at night.

However, Roger guessed the general idea of ​​the matter in his heart, but on the surface he still said angrily: "Okay, Elder Benn did it himself! Come on, you really want to put me to death!"

Facing this embarrassing situation, Randolph hurriedly explained loudly: "Mr. Li, please don't misunderstand, Elder Benn definitely did this on his own will. The Crescent Moon Elf is very friendly to you. Treat you as the most honored guest!"

Luo Jie's sudden expression was originally just a hypocrisy, but at this time he stopped and said: "Elder, what you said is the truth?"

"Of course, I can swear to the Goddess of Nature that it was only Elder Benn's idea to assassinate you." Seeing that Roger's tone had softened, Randolph hurriedly said loudly: "This matter was definitely not ordered by other elders, otherwise the entire tribe would be killed." Willing to accept the punishment of the Goddess of Nature!"

"Elder, you don't need to swear, I believe in the credibility of the elves." Roger said with a pale face, "But even if this is only the idea of ​​Elder Benn, the entire crescent moon elf tribe also has an inescapable responsibility, right?"

After listening to Roger's words, Randolph also complained secretly, judging from his tone, he planned to hold accountable.But Roger's words are not wrong, since the Crescent Moon Elf regards him as the most honored guest, he should be responsible for Roger's safety.The bad thing is that one of the elders of the crescent moon is still going to assassinate Roger. No matter how Randolph explains that this matter has nothing to do with other people, the crescent moon is always to blame no matter where it comes from.

Seeing Roger's angry look, Randolph knew that it would be impossible not to make some concessions this time, and thinking of this, he couldn't help secretly hating Ben.He didn't know that Ben went crazy and came to assassinate Roger privately. Didn't he know that regardless of whether the assassination was successful or not, it was the entire Crescent Moon Tribe that would be unlucky in the end?

But at this time Randolph couldn't think too much, so he could only lower his posture and say to Roger: "Mr. Li, please don't ruin our relationship because of this accident. If you want, we are willing to make compensation to show peace." The sincerity of your alliance."

What Roger wanted was the other party's words. Hearing this, he nodded immediately and said: "If the crescent moon elf is really so sincere, I am willing to accept your apology."

Knowing that compensation is inevitable, Randolph could only ask a little depressed: "I wonder what kind of compensation you want, Mr. Li?"

"It's very simple." Roger raised two fingers and said, "I want twenty elves!"

Roger's words made Randolph's face change drastically.The most taboo thing about elves is that humans treat them as playthings and slaves. Roger actually asked for twenty elves, which touched Randolph's most sensitive nerve.

Seeing Randolph's unhappy expression, Roger immediately understood that he had misunderstood himself, and quickly shook his head with a smile and said, "Elder Randolph, you misunderstood me. There is no limit to the twenty elves and men I want, and there will be no To ask them to do anything nasty is simply to ask them to join my army."

Roger's words made Randolph look a little better, but he still asked in disbelief: "Join your army? You already have a strong army, so what's the use of having twenty elves?"

"I want to train them to be Griffin Riders!" Roger followed Randolph word by word.

The castle's taming farm has domesticated more than 20 griffins, and more than [-] of them have grown up.After cultivating these griffins, Roger dreamed of forming a griffin knights.However, the human body is relatively heavy. Although an adult griffin can carry it as much as possible, but with the addition of armor, weapons and other loads, the mobility of the griffin in the air is very poor, which does not meet Roger's requirements at all.

The elves have a natural advantage in this regard.They are light in stature, and the armor they wear is all made of plants and the secret method of elves.In addition to being thin and beautiful, its defense ability is not much worse than that made by dwarves.Just these two factors, a fully armed elf is at least half lighter than a human knight, which is a very important advantage for Griffin.In addition, the elves are naturally good at archery, and attacking the enemy from high altitude is their strong point, so it is undoubtedly the best candidate for the elves to serve as Griffin Riders.

Of course Randolph knew these reasons very well, but he still asked a little puzzled: "What about the Griffin?"

"I have twenty adult griffins." Roger said lightly: "All of them have been domesticated and are very obedient. As long as there is one master who can control them, they can form a griffin knight!"

Hearing what Roger said, Randolph was moved.Although twenty elves have to be drawn to serve Roger, as long as they become Griffin Riders, it is also a great thing for the crescent elves.If the camp was in danger, Roger wouldn't allow the Griffon Knight to come back to rescue him, would he?

What's more, griffins are very loyal animals. Once they identify their masters, they will remain unswerving for life.In case the Crescent Moon Elves and Roger break apart in the future, these Griffin Riders are still the power of the elves.Faced with such a good opportunity, Randolph hardly hesitated, and immediately made a decision: "Okay, I promise you!"

Seeing that Randolph agreed to his terms, Roger also smiled with satisfaction.Of course the elf elders didn't know that these griffins were completely under Roger's control.He can make the griffins obey the orders of the elves very much, and he can also make the griffins tear the knights on their backs to pieces, without worrying that this force will lose control.

But the elves didn't know this secret, so they could only send twenty companions to work for Roger for free.When Roger left the elves' camp the next day, he was accompanied by twenty crescent elves, male and female.These elves not only included Elvira, but even Eve and Elulin were among them.
