When Qin Feng stepped out of the carriage, there were already people waiting at the door to greet him.

"Welcome to my manor, Mr. Qin Feng!"

A middle-aged man with a short beard and a slightly old appearance stepped forward and said gently, the straight aristocratic dress on his body was spotless. This is the supreme lord of the realm, Lord Baron Sardon.

"Hello, Your Excellency the Baron."

Qin Feng greeted briefly, with a modest but not humble attitude.

For others, it may be respectful or even flattering to see this noble lord, but he does not need to be like this, whether it is the king or the emperor opposite.

Baron Saldon had a wide smile on his face, and a delicate and lovely girl in a pink dress next to him stepped forward and slightly made a standard aristocratic lady etiquette, greeting softly, the youthful and lively atmosphere could not be concealed, the eyes flashed with brilliance, and she couldn't stop looking Qin Feng up and down. She was the baron's youngest daughter, Thenia.

Although most of the characteristics of the aboriginal races in this world that Qin Feng has seen these days are similar to those of the races in the Western countries of the main world, there are some differences. Their faces are relatively soft and natural, and they all have good skin, unlike Westerners who generally have large pores, rough skin, and a pronounced body odor.

Of course, there are many races on the mainland, and black-eyed and black-haired humans are also not uncommon, so Qin Feng's face does not surprise the people around him, and because of the similar aesthetics, his appearance and temperament are self-evident for the attractiveness of girls, and in addition, the superior force also has a huge bonus effect.

Qin Feng returned the salute gently, and then entered the main gate under the leadership of the baron,

In the banquet hall inside the manor, more than 20 male and female guests had already arrived, and they were all invited adventurers.

He glanced at it and found that the strength of these guests was above level ten, and they had various professions, so it was said that as a baron, it was naturally difficult for people with insufficient levels to enter his vision.

Qin Feng's seat was arranged in the area close to the baron, and next to him was an eleventh-level magician, and a thirteenth-level hunter, which were already the two strongest among the guests present.

Seeing that this young man was arranged to sit next to the baron, there was a faint commotion among the guests below, and a few dissatisfied eyes stared at him, but Qin Feng didn't care at all.

Even if these guys are all on it, they can be overturned by him with his bare hands, like ants, and their ideas don't mean anything to themselves.

On the long oak dining table covered with a crisp white tablecloth, a set of shiny silver cutlery is neatly arranged, such as roasted hazel chicken, wild beef kidney, and ice spring flower pine fish...... A variety of mountain delicacies, pre-dinner snacks, and aperitifs are fully arranged, and the rich aroma is appetizing.

In one corner of the banquet hall, several instruments are arranged, and the musicians are playing intently, and the atmosphere is relaxed and bright.

Baron Sardon stood up and gave a few brief speeches, and the banquet officially began.

According to the etiquette of this world, it is not forbidden to chat and laugh at the banquet, so everyone is eating and drinking happily and chatting about topics of mutual interest, which seems a little noisy for a while.

Qin Feng didn't have the heart to greet people, he just silently dealt with the food on the plate, due to the different ingredients, seasonings, and cooking techniques, the taste was obviously different from the main world, but it was still good, at least he didn't find it difficult to eat.

The feast did not last long, and when it was near the end, Baron Sardon got up and clapped his hands, and the room was a little quieter, and all eyes were on him.

A group of young maids streamed in at the door, each carrying a silver platter in his hand, in which lay a nearly transparent silk money bag, the mouth of which was unfastened, and the shining gold coins inside were clearly visible, dazzling the eyes of the adventurers.

Anyway, they are wandering outside, coming and going in the wind and rain, isn't this the picture? Only with gold coins can you have resources and status, and only then can you continue to cultivate, and then have a more decent life.

The law that people travel thousands of miles just to seek wealth is applicable in any world.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is half of the agreed remuneration,"

Baron Saldon's voice sounded: "When the bandits who attack tonight are repelled, the rest of the reward will be distributed in full, and if there is enough merit, more rewards will be given, everyone can rest assured." ”

Everyone was also polite, and reached out to take the money bag in front of them. It is a custom in this world that it is normal for the superior to give gold coins and property to the lower, and it is enough to accept it calmly. Unlike the ancient Confucian dynasties, there will be a lot of meaningless hypocrisy and politeness.

Qin Feng picked up his money bag and weighed it, and instantly came up with the number: there were a hundred gold coins, plus five gems in good condition, which were worth about three thousand gold coins. When the defense of the city is over, you can get another three thousand, which is almost the standard value of a sixteenth-level swordsman, maybe a little higher.

The other adventurers were paid much less favorably, with a lot of gold and a lot of gold, but no precious stones.

Level and lethality are usually proportional to each other, and the higher you go, the greater the power gap, the more difficult it is to be promoted, and the corresponding remuneration will naturally soar upward.

"Your Excellency, you seem to be mistaken."

The jungle hunter in his thirties next to him finally couldn't hold back and questioned, the only few hundred gold coins he got was not comparable to Qin Feng at all.

The eleventh-level magician's eyes flickered, and after thinking about it, he didn't say anything, and continued to choose to watch coldly.

Baron Sardon didn't think it was wrong, and said gently: "Mr. Langsen, Mr. Qin Feng's rank is a sixteenth-level swordsman, so his remuneration is in line with the market, and there is nothing wrong with my arrangement." ”

"What? Level 16? ”

Ronson was taken aback, and his momentum suddenly disappeared. The other people who were originally eager to try also quieted down instantly, because Qin Feng deliberately restrained his breath, they really didn't see the true roots of this young man before.

If it is really a sixteenth-level swordsman, then he is undoubtedly the strongest person in the field, and it is natural to get the most reward.

Lang Sen looked at Qin Feng suspiciously for a while, but after all, he was still a little unconvinced, and asked, "You really have level sixteen?" Do you dare to compete with me? ”

"Yes, use your share of the gold as a bet."

Qin Feng glanced at him and said lightly.

Langson's pupils shrank: "What if you lose?" ”

Qin Feng smiled: "If you have the ability to win me, my reward will naturally be yours." ”

"Good! It's decided! ”

Lang Sen only felt that his blood was surging, it was thousands of gold coins, it was difficult for him to earn such a large amount of income in the past two years, and the stimulus of heavy profits made him lose his minimum judgment.

Baron Sardon wanted to say something to stop him, but after thinking about it, he remained silent, he also wanted to see how the young man was doing.

The two of them came to the open space outside and stood five meters apart. The rest of the professionals watched from afar.

The Jungle Hunter was armed with a one-handed longsword with a faint glow suggesting that it was also an enchanted weapon, as well as a longbow and a delicate crossbow hanging from his waist.

Qin Feng stared at him for a few moments, he still didn't know the ability and career characteristics of this world, there seemed to be a lot of weapons available to hunters, and there was obviously no shortage of some hidden means. Of course, the absolute gap in strength is there, no matter how powerful this guy is, it doesn't mean anything.

When the butler Fasti announced the start of the competition, Lang Sen shouted, and suddenly waved the long sword in his hand, and the figure was like a vigorous cheetah rushing forward, the sword blade brought a piercing whistling sound, the misty fighting spirit lit up, and the strength had accumulated to the peak, and slashed towards Qin Feng.

The adventurers around him showed a relaxed smile, this sword of Lang Sen was already at a super level, even if it was a profession higher than him, it was impossible to follow it at will. This young man who came out of nowhere, I'm afraid I'm going to be in a hurry for a while.

"It's just a chicken, a dog."

Qin Feng shook his head secretly, in his eyes, even if this guy's strength is ten or eight times stronger, he is still full of flaws in front of him, and he is a little embarrassed to bully the other party.

The long sword in his hand lightly pulled a sword flower, casually avoiding the opponent's attack, and slapped the sword on the guy's back.

Langson was instantly struck by lightning, and his sturdy body flew straight out more than ten meters away, lying on the ground for a long time and unable to get up.

The surrounding chatter suddenly fell silent.

Doubtful, surprised, and incredulous eyes converged on Qin Feng, and from beginning to end, no one could see his movements clearly, after all, the difference in strength was too big.

“…… That's it? ”

“…… Langsen's strength is the strongest among us, and he can't even take a move from the other party? It seems that he is really level sixteen, and he is not deliberately exaggerating. ”

"But even if it's level sixteen, it won't beat Langson like this all at once? Could it be that he is still hiding his strength? ”

"It should be, he didn't use his fighting spirit at all just now, he won purely by virtue of strength skills!"

"With such amazing strength at such a young age, he shouldn't be an ordinary adventurer, right? Maybe he was also born into a nobleman. ”

"Well, it's possible ......"

……

Thenia's eyes shining as she looked at Qin Feng, revealing a look of admiration and admiration unabashedly, it was the first time she had seen such a powerful martial artist.

Baron Sardon next to him was smiling, this young man's performance was even better than he expected, maybe he could really consider keeping him, for this reason it was worth giving another Lord's land.

A few familiar adventurers helped Langson up, and he didn't look much more serious than his pale.

"The money is mine."

Qin Feng took the money bag he had placed beside the housekeeper in his hand and said lightly.

"Yes, I lost."

In front of everyone's eyes, no matter how thick-skinned Lang Sen was, it was impossible to cheat, so he could only smile bitterly.

The steward Fasti immediately ordered the servants to help him to rest, and then announced that everyone was on duty at the wall, and it was now dark and the time of the bandits' scheduled attack was getting closer and closer.

Outside the manor, the baron's three hundred private troops were already ready, as well as hundreds of young men who had been recruited, and hundreds of low-level adventurers, adding up to a rather weak force, provided that it was properly commanded.

"Mr. Qin Feng, I'll send you over in a carriage."

Fasti came over and said respectfully, "If you have any other requests, you may as well say them together, as long as you can do it, the Baron will definitely meet you." ”

Qin Feng nodded and said, "Bring me a good set of armor, in addition to a pair of bows and arrows, so be it." ”

"Okay, I'll get it for you right away."

Fasti breathed a sigh of relief, this request was a trivial matter. He immediately called a servant to give a few words, and the other man took the order and left.

The town was not large, and it didn't take long for the carriage to drive under the city walls.

By the time Qin Feng walked up the not too high city wall, there was already a shadowy firelight at the end of his vision.

With his eyesight, he could easily see that it was a large number of torches, and a large group of men in the prime of life in different costumes and carrying different weapons were heading towards the town. There are thousands of people.

"Sure enough...... I knew it wasn't that simple. ”

Qin Feng understood at a glance, these guys said that they were bandits, but the weapons they carried were quite sophisticated, the queue between the walks was tight, the pace was powerful, there was no sign of scattered, the eyes were resolute and calm, and there was no noise and noise, just silently hurried.

It is clearly a well-trained army.
