Chapter 595: Letters
Stepping out of the dilapidated tent, Adil raised his head lightly and looked around.
It was late at night, and the residents of the surrounding wooden houses were asleep, and only a few of them were awake.
Because of the fright of the ghouls some time ago, the scavengers in the entire village have not completely recovered their calm from the state of alert, so they gather one by one, and they are all gathered in the center of the village.
Walking out of the tent, Adil didn't go anywhere else, but followed the ghoul's breath directly towards a corner.
It was a very remote corner, and there was a large dilapidated tent in it, which looked to have fallen into disrepair for a long time, and had long since been uninhabited.
Following the breath, Adil stepped into it, and then directly picked it with his fingers, and on the ground in front of him, a dirt pit appeared directly, revealing a gray curtain inside.
The curtain was opened, revealing the contents of the house, a carefully folded blueprint made of yellow paper, a few weapons in good condition, and a few bits and pieces of coins.
Looking at the contents, Adil took the lead in opening the drawing.
A very rough but fairly detailed topographical map is revealed, which shows some of the terrain in the vicinity, although it appears rough in many places, but it is generally detailed.
Looking at this topographic map, Adil was stunned, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity, stemming from the original memory of this body.
This map shows a topographic map of the southern region of Tamru, and on this topographic map, there are even some military forts in the vicinity, as well as the places where some legions of soldiers are stationed.
The details of its content and the details of the terrain made Adil feel that something was wrong, and he instinctively felt an abnormality.
Looking at the map in front of him, Adiel's face was calm, but the thoughts in his heart were turning in an instant, drifting into the distance unconsciously.
A ghoul who likes to document the terrain and even wander around various military locations?
If this kind of thing is said, I am afraid that everyone will be surprised.
In the atlas of the map, Adil also saw a letter, the handwriting on the envelope was very neat, and at a glance he had a rich foundation.
The amount of handwriting on it is not much, but the content revealed in it is very rich.
"The order issued by the Duke of Asy, Zink, you immediately go to the southern fortress to reconnoitre, find out the terrain and military stations around here as soon as possible, prepare for the duke's future attack, and search..."
That's the end of the handwriting on it.
It can be seen that there was more to the letter, but the second half of the letter was torn out, so that the contents were broken and not fully presented.
But just this part of the content presented so far is enough to make Adil feel something.
"The Duke of Assyria... This is the king of the kingdom of Senai..."
Looking at the letter in his hand, thinking about its contents, Adil had a strange expression on his face: "He actually drove an existence like a ghoul to inquire about the news, this Assyrian duke is really powerful..."
However, this also explains why in the battle some time ago, the other party came from afar, but he was more familiar with the local terrain than the original owner of this body, and even used several information misleads to make Yasuo's army deflated. ”
In the previous war, the army of the Kingdom of Tamru was completely defeated.
In addition to the sluggish situation in the country and the lack of combat strength of the army, the same is true in terms of information.
During the battle, the army of the Senai Kingdom had obviously come from afar, and had never set foot on the land of the Tamru Kingdom before, but they showed great familiarity with the local terrain, and they did not have the fatigue of coming from afar.
This kind of terrifying performance, even if the opposing army carries local guides, should not be so terrifying.
But if before the battle, the head of the opposing side sent a ghoul-like presence into the territory of Tamru to constantly search for information in the vicinity, then this situation makes sense.
There is a big gap between a mortal tour guide and an existence like a ghoul.
As a ghoul, not to mention its own strong strength, just its own strong camouflage ability is enough to make many people tricked.
Just like the scavenger village in front of him, if it weren't for Adil keenly aware of the existence of this ghoul's breath imprint, I'm afraid this ghoul would continue to lurk, and it wouldn't take long to kill the entire village.
This terrifying camouflage ability, if used on the battlefield, whether it is used to collect espionage intelligence, or to directly replace the knights and troops in the opposing camp, it is an extremely terrifying thing.
If the Duke of Assyria can really drive away ghouls and other anomalies, even if he has a previous record, it makes sense.
"It's a pity that this method can only be used this time, and if it is discovered next time, it will not work. ”
Standing quietly in place, thinking about the fierce attack of the Senai Kingdom this time, Adil shook his head secretly while faintly appreciating it.
Absorbing the heterogeneous for one's own use is indeed very effective, but it is rarely used.
On the one hand, ghouls are alien because their very existence is a horror.
Just like ghouls, ghouls have a habit of tearing people apart alive and then devouring all the flesh and blood in them.
This terrifying habit dooms this kind of existence to be absolutely the kind of thing that everyone shouts and fights no matter where it is placed, and is widely hostile and feared by everyone.
In addition, there are such beings as ghouls, although they have weak intelligence and the possibility of communication, they are often wild and rational, and if they are not careful, they will immediately backfire and directly eat their own people alive.
In the history of this world, there have been many kingdoms that have kept aliens in captivity, and even regarded aliens as kingdoms of god worship.
But in the end, these kingdoms were all eaten by these captive aliens, and there were even cases where the king himself was eaten by ghouls, which was terrifying.
And the second reason is the church.
This world is a world of God.
In the memory of the predecessor of Adiel's body, the world was filled with churches large and small, each with its own gods and sacrifices.
Unlike other worlds that Adil has experienced in the past, in the world of the gods, sacrifice is the mainstream of the world.
In the midst of the earthly world, churches of all sizes rise and fall in the world, scrambling to compete for believers on the earth, and even do not hesitate to start a holy war for this.
And within the nations, a priest guards one side, while spreading the faith, but also guarding the peace of the world, and settling down the area.
However, in this world, many churches that can spread widely, more than ninety percent of them, are extremely hostile to ghouls, and even kill this kind of stranger with their own hands, and will receive more favor from the gods.
Thus, while ghouls are considered terrifying creatures among civilians, they are nothing at all on the continent.
The Principality of Senai tends to be an outlier to fight for itself, and it is fine once or twice, but if it is discovered by the Principality of Tamru, it will inevitably be reported to the nearby church, attracting the intervention of the sacrifice.
"However, even if you can only use it once or twice, it is enough to establish an early advantage. ”
Standing in place, thinking about the previous rout of the army of the Kingdom of Tamru, as well as some chaos within it, Adil shook his head lightly: "Moreover, with the virtues of those nobles, I am afraid that they have not reacted yet." ”
For the crushing defeat of the Tamru army, Adil did not care.
The memories of the past are the past, and in the end, he is not the original Yasuo, just a strange visitor from another world.
Compared to the crushing defeat of the Kingdom of Tamru on the battlefield, Adil was more concerned about the content of this letter.
"Finding... What the hell are you looking for?"
Standing quietly in place, thinking carefully for a while, Adil shook his head, gave up thinking about it, and instead lowered his head and looked at several other things around him.
The thing in front of me was clearly the ghoul's private collection, and there was nothing left of it except the map and letters.
A few of the weapons looked sharp, each one forged from the finest materials, and when put outside, it was at least a weapon that only a midshipman was qualified to wear.
Looking at these weapons, Adil picked out a very sharp pale gray long sword, and then casually put away the rest of the things and looked at the last coin.
There are a lot of coins buried in front of me, and the systems are also very complex, and there are several national currencies put together, which seems to be abundant.
"Probably close to one hundred and twenty gold. ”
After roughly settling the value of the coins buried here, Adil was a little surprised, not surprised that this ghoul would collect human coins, but surprised by the amount in front of him.
Ghouls, of course, also need money.
Despite their penchant for cannibalism, ghouls are not savage creatures, but possess a certain amount of intelligence.
With wisdom, there will naturally be a need for some things in the human kingdom.
For example, all kinds of food and wine, all kinds of well-made weapons, and all kinds of slaves who are alive and have their internal organs intact, cheap and precious.
Just as humans have all sorts of ways to live, so do ghouls.
The ghoul in front of him, who was stabbed by Adiel, can only be regarded as an average of ghouls.
Ghouls who really mix well don't need to take huge risks to go out hunting for food, but are themselves big nobles of some kingdoms, not only wealthy, but also have a large number of fields and a large number of slaves.
At this point, if you want to eat someone, you don't need to take the risk of going out at all, and it's not the same as buying a few slaves directly.
Even, as a great nobleman recognized in the kingdom, even if some people know that this is a ghoul, they can't do anything.
Even if the church and the priesthood do not want to conflict with the kingdom and eventually cause serious consequences, they can only compromise on this, and even watch the nobles incarnated as ghouls enter the church to pray, but they still dare not act and tear their faces.
The ghoul who was killed by Adil in front of him probably also wanted to develop in this direction, so he accumulated so much net worth, and was ready to go to some kingdoms to buy a title and land, so as to "reasonably and legally" eat people.
But now, these things are undoubtedly cheaper than Adier, but they save Adil a lot of effort.
Awakened from the battlefield, Adil at this moment can be called poor and white, the armor and sword worn on the battlefield have long been swept away, and there is nothing left on his body except for a little clothing to cover his body, so that when fighting with this ghoul, he has to rely on himself to go to the nearby to polish the stone spear and make weapons in the most primitive way.
But with the ghoul's legacy, Adil can become a small landowner, and he can do whatever he needs to do right away.
Thinking of this, he got up and put away all the coins in front of him, then looked into the distance and walked outside step by step.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
After that night, witnessed by the corpse of the great ghoul and told by the girl, Adil's story soon spread throughout the small village, stirring up a stir in the village.
There is no doubt that this is a true noble knight, a strong man, and in the case of serious injuries, with only a stone spear, he can still kill a terrifying ghoul alive.
In particular, the girl Wendy's statement that Adil agreed to take her away made the surrounding residents envious and regretful.
With such a powerful knight, the girl's life will inevitably change in the future, not only will she get rid of the lowly status of a scavenger, but she may also be able to move into a beautiful manor and enjoy life in peace.
Some of the scavengers who discovered Adil with Wendy in the first place, and even carried Adil out in person, regretted in their hearts why they were reluctant to give up a few bowls of broth, so that they missed this opportunity.
However, despite the envy and jealousy of many people, this small village in the middle of nowhere is surprisingly united. Some residents may be jealous, but no one has done anything bad.
Soon, the time lasted three days later.
Three days later, one morning, under the stunned gaze of many scavengers, a huge carriage slowly walked in from the outside, through the winding path, and slowly drove into the narrow village race.
The carriage appears to be large, but the whole is black, and the scene is blocked by a heavy white cloth, making it difficult to see the scene.
In front of the carriage, a tall white horse quietly pulled the horse in front, and on it sat a middle-aged coachman with rough skin.
Overall, the carriage was nothing, and even seemed very rudimentary in Adiel's eyes.
But for these impoverished waste pickers, the wagon was an indescribable luxury and prestige.
With a loud sound, the person sitting inside gently stepped out of it.
