Chapter 33, Rodriguez Town

The day after the fog passed.

The crisp cool breeze of autumn blows slowly, and the early morning sun lazily sprinkles on the ground, bringing the disaster-stricken town of Craig out of the shadows.

But the prosperity here is a thing of the past, and the devastated streets are deserted.

Seeing his younger brother trembling downstairs and going out to buy breakfast bread, Chris suddenly asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Langton smiled bitterly, "My legs are numb." ”

"Sat all night. ”

"How can you get numb in your legs when you're sitting?" Chris couldn't figure out.

Langton shook his head, not explaining that he was in the purgatory space, and he had obtained the cultivation method of absorbing the power of desire, and he had been meditating and cultivating last night, and then accidentally fell asleep causing his feet to go numb.

There is still a long way to go to become a transcendent and master more power!

"By the way, that Mr. Sauron took a few dozen pounds of steel ingots and went to the blacksmith shop in the west of the city, saying that he would not come back at noon. Chris put down his bread and said, "Dowling helped Lord Tywin with the rectification of the south of the city, and they won't be back at noon." ”

Langton: "When did Arryn say you will be canonized?"

"Late. "Chris was very excited when it came to accepting the canonization of knighthood, using the dragon scale amulet, and saving Craig's town.

"Is anyone still alive in the Chamber of Commerce?"

Preparing to take over the family business, Langton thought for a moment and asked, "Are the captains and sailors of the merchant ships here?"

At the mention of this, Chris sighed: "The captain and sailor should be there." ”

"But... Our family's armed ships and escort ships were all transferred by Herbert to the port of Stuart, and the only steward of the Chamber of Commerce was old Pablo. ”

Langton: "What about the other stewards?"

Chris sighed, "Those who betrayed were punished in the treacherous fog, and as for the others, they also suffered misfortunes. ”

"It seems that it is not easy to resume business. ”

"Gabry, I'm sure you can do it!" Chris trusts his brother's abilities: "But... Why don't you care about Hannah's situation?"

"Because I'm not the Gabriel I used to be, it's Langton. ”

Hearing that his younger brother only said his surname, as if he was a family first, Chris thought that he had finally grown up.

"Then we'll go to the Chamber of Commerce later. ”

"Okay. ”

After a simple breakfast, the two walked out of the residential area, and the town of Craig was in a depression, and Chris couldn't help but sigh: "There are only six hundred and three people rescued by the sea boat. ”

"Now there are less than 800 people left in the town. ”

"In another 10 years, Craig may not be able to regain its former prosperity. ”

A thriving town has become like this, and Langton sighs.

But they didn't know that the fog covered the entire Northlands, and all of the Northlands were like Craig's Town, with more than ninety percent of the population disappearing in this disaster!

Langton asked, "What about our Chamber of Commerce's inventory?"

"Ironware, medicines, and most of the table salt, and a small portion of the grain were transported by Herbert to the port of Stuart, and the rest of the goods were there. Chris said.

While chatting, the two walked down the deserted street, and when they arrived at the door of the Lanton Chamber of Commerce, Bethone sent someone to ride a horse to find them.

"Lord Gabbri, Lord Chris!"

"Rodriguez next door has brought a team of people, and Baron Arryn and Sir Bethorne have invited the two of them to the manor to discuss important matters!"

Hearing this, Langton and Chris glanced at each other, and immediately rode to the manor on the horses brought by the soldiers.

Rodriguez was the first barony to be suppressed by Herbert, and he even wiped out the Rodriguez family in order to completely control it!

It's certainly not a good thing that someone is coming.

After taking over the Chamber of Commerce, Langton and the two soon returned to Craig Manor, where the building was being renovated, and met Arryn, Bethhorn, Tywin, and Dowling in the backyard.

The man led by Rodriguez was kneeling in front of them, covered in wounds and apparently tortured.

Seeing the two of them, Bethone, who looked solemn, said: "There is also a mist in the Rodriguez territory, they say that the people over there are almost dead, and they came to Craig Town to report the situation to Herbert." ”

"Gabry, do you believe them?"

Langton frowned and asked, "Why don't you send someone to take a look?"

Erin said, "I also want to send someone to investigate." ”

"But... If they lie, with our current strength, we will not be able to stop the attack of the rebel soldiers. ”

Tywin said, "I'd like to go with Gabriel and Dowling. ”

"No, I can't. Erin shook his head, "The town needs Lord Tywin." ”

Langton immediately understood why Erin and Bethorne specifically called him, and said with a wry smile, "You want me to go?"

Bethorne nodded, "You have the ability to protect yourself." ”

Langton was depressed: "But I want to take over the Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible......"

Chris volunteered: "Let me go!"

Bethorne: "You're not enough alone. ”

"What kind of person?" Langton: "You don't give it to the soldiers?"

Arryn apologized, "We need to prevent the rebels from attacking. ”

To investigate the enemy-occupied area, Langton was really speechless for the lack of people in Craig Town to this point.

Big Brother Cheap is going, and it is impossible for him to stay.

"Well, we'll go. ”

The brother-in-law was still willing to contribute to the family, and Erin nodded in satisfaction, and then told the two to be careful.

When he got the task, the motivated Chris immediately pulled his younger brother into action, and he was about to be canonized as a knight, of course, he had to work hard to complete the mission and make a good impression on the baron.

Langton was speechless about this.

After all, no matter how well the knight is done, no matter how well he completes the task, is he not working for the Craig family?

Grow under the red flag of equality for all.

Get an advanced education.

Even if he fused the memories of his original body for more than twenty years and pursued self-improvement, Langton would never understand how eager ordinary people were to become knights and how eager to enter the aristocratic class.

In Craig, Tywin's job isn't busy.

The summoner was about to go out on an adventure, and Dowling hurriedly followed.

After changing their gear and finding Sauron, who was crafting weapons for themselves, the four of them left Craig Town and rode to the Rodriguez Territory to the west.

Experienced the treacherous fog.

Outside Craig's town, it's just as bleak.

There was no one in the four fields, not even a single bird in the sky.

Autumn is desolate and horseshoe urgent.

The sun rose to the west, and the night fell, and in the middle of the night, everyone finally arrived in Rodriguez's territory.

Although it is still a long way from the central town of Rodrigues.

But Chris decided to look carefully.

However, avoiding the two villages on the side of the road, Langton found that there was no light in those villages.

"I don't think those people are lying. ”

Chris frowned when he heard this: "This place is also shrouded in treacherous fog, causing the huge Rodriguez to die with only three hundred people left?"

"We passed through two villages. ”

"But there was no light or sound in either village, so there was probably no one. ”

Chris's face changed: "The scourge of the mist is so wide-ranging?"

"No......"

"Are you scared?" Dowling looked at him with a smirk.

Seeing his powerful ability, Chris was angry when he heard this: "Of course you are not afraid of immortality." ”

"But Gabre and I are just ordinary people, if anything is in danger......"

Dowling chuckled, "Don't worry, I'll protect you." ”

Sauron nodded faintly: "I will too." ”

Langton muttered, "Let's go straight to Rodrigues Town." ”

"So risky?" Chris frowned, "Even if Rodriguez receives the scourge of the mist, there are still three hundred people there." ”

Dowling didn't care, "I came to this world, and there was only one fun left to take risks. ”

With the Demon Lord Sauron by his side, even if he has not yet regained his strength, Langton is not afraid of danger: "That's it, let's go." ”

For his younger brother, who has been very adventurous since returning from the plains battlefield, Chris sighed helplessly, and then grabbed the hilt of his sword and rode his horse to follow.

No longer hiding from the village, the four of them galloped at full speed, and it didn't take long for them to reach the outside of the town of Rodriguez.

Looking at the town of Rodriguez, where the gates of the town were closed, he found that there were not many soldiers patrolling the parapet, and Langton, who was heavily armed and carrying a war hammer, went to Sauron's side while Chris was observing, and asked in a low voice, "Demon Lord, can you use magic?"

Sauron shook his head, "I'm a necromancer. ”

"Are you sure you want me to use those 'evil' spells?"

These words made Langton's brows furrow: "Uh... There's no magic but necromancy?"

Sauron: "I can also become a werewolf. ”

......" Langton: "Forget it." ”

"What are you talking about?" asked Chris after observing the town of Rodriguez and seeing the two talking.

"Nothing. ”

Lan Don raised the hammer in his hand and moved his muscles.

"Sauron, do you have great strength?"

Sauron: "It's okay. ”

Hearing this, Chris immediately asked Langton, "What do you want to do?"

"Break down the town gate!"

With that, Ranton rode his horse and charged, followed by Sauron, who didn't talk much, raising his spear and throwing it at the soldiers on the parapet, killing one person in a flash.

"It's the adventures like that. ”

Dowling did not hesitate, and hurriedly drew his sword to follow.

For the reckless younger brother, the helpless Chris could only sacrifice his life to accompany him, took out the longbow on horseback and rushed over, and when he entered the firing range, he pulled the truce horse and suddenly opened the bow and arrows.

"Enemy attack!"

"Bell Bell Bell ~"

The town of Rodriguez is ringing with alarm bells.

Langton had already rushed to the front of the town gate, and smashed out the war hammer with all his strength with the momentum outburst: "Bang~"

It's like battering ram strikes!

However.

The impact is strong, the smashing is heavy, and Langton also has to withstand a not light shock!

The blindfolded war horse did not stop charging, nor was he pulled to turn, and directly crashed to death at the town gate, because of the shock of the war hammer, he suddenly fell to the ground heavily.

Seeing this, Chris's heart was beating wildly.

"Gabby, what the hell are you doing?"

"Where would anyone fight like that?"

Sauron followed behind Lanton, temporarily took out the long sword he used and swung it, blooming like a dreamlike silver lotus, and the soldiers on the parapet wall smashed stones and released sharp arrows, all of which were easily blocked!

Relying on his full body armor, Sauron used the stone with his bare hands, then smashed it back with his backhand, killing another enemy.

Chris originally wanted to save his stupid brother, but he immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then opened his bow to support Sauron.

Because the town of Rodriguez is not as wealthy as the town of Craig, their parapet wall is not high, only five or six meters, and the equipment of the soldiers is mediocre.

After experiencing the treacherous fog, the elite soldiers of Rodriguez Town were basically killed in battle.

Soldiers who were lucky to survive.

There was also not much morale to face a sudden attack on the enemy.

A hammer smashed out, stunned himself, but Langton, who fell not lightly, was fine, took out the healing potion he had prepared and poured it down, shook his head, and continued to wield the war hammer.

"Knock~"

"You can't open the door like this. ”

Dollin ran over to the rain of arrows and falling rocks, took out the chain with the grappling hook, and said, "Maybe we can climb up." ”

"Cover ......"

Before Dowling could finish his words, Sauron grabbed the hook and threw it directly onto the parapet, and then threw his whole person on the parapet!

Suddenly it flew up.

Seeing the stunned enemy on the parapet, Dowling almost didn't react, but he still subconsciously grabbed the head of the wall, and then stabbed and slashed against the parapet with his long sword.

"Hell!"

"You can't kill it!"

Seeing Dao Lin with an immortal body, the sword attacked him, the wound healed in a blink of an eye, experienced the treacherous fog, saw the powerful demonic beasts, the terrifying undead, the surviving soldiers, and some of them were already frightened.

In the face of the enemy who can't be killed, they turn around and run away by hiding through the treacherous fog!

Dowling climbed the parapet to distract the enemy, and Sauron took the opportunity to climb up the parapet with a hook and rope, and the strange silver light swayed, and the remaining soldiers fell in a pool of blood without incident.

"So easy?"

Seeing Dowling and Sauron smash the parapet like a bamboo, and then hit the enemy straight down, Chris couldn't believe his eyes.

Arrows and stones are no longer found.

Langton was stunned for a moment, and then Sauron opened the gates of Rodriguez Town inside.

"How did you get in?"

When Chris, who rode over, heard this, he immediately glared at him and said, "Do you think that fighting is a game, with a broken hammer, you can smash open such a thick oak gate?"

"Have you noticed the enemies on the parapet?"

"If it weren't for Lord Dowling, and Mr. Sauron, you would have died under the rain of arrows and falling rocks!"

"Adventure is not looking for death!"

Seeing soldiers coming with torches on the streets of Rodriguez Town, and hearing Chris shouting accusations to his brother at the town gate, Dowling hurriedly came down from the parapet and reminded: "An enemy is coming. ”

"Get ready for battle!"

Sauron didn't talk nonsense, turned over and mounted his warhorse, and rushed straight towards the fire-filled street.

Chris, who was teaching his younger brother, was speechless for a while and didn't know what to say.

Langton also wanted to follow on horseback.

But his horse had struck the door and died, so he could only ride Dowling's horse.

"What are you going to do again?" Chris hurriedly stopped him, "Can you not be so reckless?"

"Do you know that you are looking for death for such behavior?"

Let's not talk about Dorian Gray, who sold his soul and obtained an immortal body.

Who is Sauron?

He is Maia, the powerful Enu, the Lord of the Rings world, a secondary god born at the beginning of time!

Even if his strength has not yet recovered, with his necromancy, werewolf transformation, and terrifying dark power, how difficult will it be to deal with just three hundred soldiers?

So, Lanton didn't worry about his safety at all.

On the other side of the streets of the town, there were shouts of killing, and the mighty Sauron was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and no matter how many ordinary soldiers there were, there was no enemy for him.

"Dare to attack my town of Rodriguez, give me death!"

At this moment, a middle-aged warrior in leather armor, armed with a heavy spear made of stainless steel, rode a horse and charged.

Chasing the stars in the cold, the momentum is like a dragon!

In the face of such a charge, such a spear, Sauron, who was fighting back with more than one enemy, was not afraid to counterattack.

However.

The spear was unstoppable and stabbed at the sword.

The blade shattered, and the mighty Sauron was suddenly knocked away by the charging warhorse!

...... To be continued......
