Chapter 50: An Unquiet Night
"Alright then" the knight didn't say much, he was only here to cooperate with Miss Omaba's actions, as long as he didn't put himself in danger, he didn't care about anything else, if he really encountered danger, he would be the first to escape. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After all, a knight with the strength of a junior swordsman may be quite a few in the viscounty, but there will not be many of them, and it is impossible to dispose of himself casually because of such a thing. As for Miss Omaba's safety, he didn't care at all, and Lord Viscount gave him help just to befriend the other party's mentor.
If there is really any irresistible force appearing, the other party's mentor will not find the viscount unhappy for this reason. After all, mages are a bunch of cold, sane guys.
And Wang Xiaode didn't know what happened outside the territory, but he was also a little uneasy in his heart, as if something bad would happen, but at this time, Wang Xiaode had already entered the key link of the breakthrough, and his whole body could not move, only his spiritual sense could still scan the surroundings.
And the later it gets, the more obvious this feeling of uneasiness becomes, and the senses of cultivators are very sensitive, especially the senses of their own blessings and misfortunes. At this time, Wang Xiaode was in the secret room, and the aura was surging, and the aura was being poured into the body.
can't move a single inch at all, but Wang Xiaode's current realm can barely be regarded as a foundation building realm, and he already has some strength in the foundation building period. Wang Xiaode can already influence some of the operation of the altar through his spiritual sense.
However, because he couldn't divide too much of his mind, Wang Xiaode could only use the altar to disturb the normal circulation of some spiritual energy in the territory. It makes people who sleep in the territory toss and turn in bed and cannot sleep.
"Hey, why can't I sleep all the time?" At this time, old Jack was tossing and turning in bed, always feeling a little irritable in his heart, it stands to reason that people of his age should sleep well, but today he just can't sleep. As a last resort, in the end, I could only put on a piece of clothing and come to the small courtyard of the governor's mansion to cool off.
"Father! Why haven't you slept yet? Then old Jack's son, Johnson, called from behind. At this time, the other party is similar to Old Jack, but there is a beautiful woman next to him, and Johnson's wife who has just married during this time. When he was doing business outside, a chamber of commerce owner married his sister-in-law to Johnson in order to befriend Johnson.
For these big families, the daughter of the concubine is an important wealth, whether beautiful or ugly, it has corresponding value, the beautiful can be sent out to make allies, and the ugly ones are also good gifts to their subordinates with some family learning. Many subordinates have been able to take pride in the ugly daughters of the main family, believing that this is the importance that the main family values them.
"What? You can't sleep either? Old Jack asked, staring at Johnson.
"yes. Are you too? When Johnson learned that his father couldn't sleep like him, he thought it was a coincidence, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
But when he saw that countless officials and guards who had lived in the governor's mansion and had not left had come to the small courtyard, he felt that something was a little unusual. Usually, it's normal for one or two people to not be able to sleep, even if it's 10 or 8, it's nothing, it may be that everyone is a little tired from work recently.
But when I see dozens of people up and down the governor's mansion, both men and women, who can't sleep, I'm afraid that anyone will know that there is something going on, and it is not a trivial matter.
Others can see it, and of course Old Jack can see it. Old Jack found James and Zhu Jiancheng and came to a room in the courtyard and began to discuss, this kind of strange thing is not useful if there are many people.
And here Old Jack is in charge of the government affairs of the territory, James is in charge of the military, and Zhu Jiancheng is the representative of the other members of the lord's family. It can be said that when the lord is not there, as long as they join forces, they can represent the will of the entire territory.
Of course, Caesarine is excluded here, after all, Caesarine was only Wang Xiaode's concubine and had no heirs. Thus Caesarine was excluded. After all, the other party is not only the concubine of the lord, but also the daughter of another baron lord, and the political relationship here is more complicated.
"James, I think tonight is a little unusual, huh?" Old Jack said to James.
"Anyone can see this, but what's going on?" James also felt a little headache, since James was appointed by Wang Xiaode as the military director, James's temperament has become more and more like a formal soldier, straightforward, irritable, and has a strong sense of discipline. But the relative is that the brain is not as good as before, except for combat, of course, when it comes to combat, James is the head.
"I think so, now we don't know the situation, the top priority is to step up patrols to see if there is anything abnormal. In addition, I have to go to the Lord's Mansion to report back. It's best to let your lord know about this. Zhu Jiancheng on the side suggested.
"Okay, that's it. James, you take your people to all parts of the territory to step up patrols, and report any abnormalities immediately. Zhu Jiancheng and I went to the Lord's Mansion to report the situation. As for the Governor's Office, let Johnson watch it for me. Old Jack commanded as the Supreme Commander.
Originally, Old Jack didn't have the right to command the army, but he couldn't take care of it so much during the special period, and it would be fine if it was a false alarm, but if there was really something big, it would be bad.
Just when Old Jack and the others were arranging the affairs of the territory, a rescue team of five people also secretly entered the territory. They weren't affected by the Forest Phantom Array, after all, there was a mage apprentice by their side, and the swordsman himself had improvised magic equipment to break the environment.
This was inquired about earlier, and it was made by Miss Omaba's mentor himself, and although the effect was very poor, it was still somewhat useful against this simple phantom array.
Therefore, the other party easily entered the territory and made a detour to the slave camp. After all, even if the strength of a knight leader is weak, but after all, it is a knight leader, and it is still okay to deal with them with a knight, especially the other party has many ordinary soldiers to assist.
After entering the territory, Omaba and the knight squad acted separately, and the knight squad did not bring the horses to the territory town, which would be too conspicuous. And these otherworldly horses are somewhat spiritual, as long as the owner calls, they will run over by themselves, so a few people let the horses go, and then summon them when needed.
And Old Jack and Zhu Jiancheng also soon came to the Lord's Mansion, and happened to see Catherine, when Old Jack proposed to meet Wang Xiaode, he was rejected by Catherine without compromise, which made Old Jack very surprised, but at the same time very angry.
