Everyone's eyes were straight. ()

The slave traders had dry mouths and shortness of breath. The slaves were dumbfounded. Karenic and the two men looked at each other, both moved. And the little slave owner Piba regretted it even more - he knew that this kid was so rich, and he should have struck him hard at that time.

Not to mention them, even Grande on the side was also stunned for a while. Although he knew that Roy had the Red Leaf Knights behind him, he also knew that this young master who had killed hundreds of people with a magic pattern array was not as simple as his appearance at all. But he never dreamed that Roy's net worth would be much richer than his means of killing!

If it weren't for the fact that Roy was really just a commoner, if he hadn't known Hans and Ken, the Polabel people, and heard them talk about Roy's past, Grandet would have almost suspected that he was the illegitimate son of the Momiji Carré family!

Looking at the precious demon core furs all over the ground, Grandet's heart was dripping blood.

One hundred and twenty elves, the normal auction price is only 200,000 gold and lulang. Even if there are a few good goods among them, double the price again, and 400,000 Jin Lulang will be up to the sky. But no one expected that Mi Qi would raise the price to 860,000 Jin Lulang. Such a large sum of money, even if it is placed in the flint consortium, it will hurt the muscles and bones!

"This loser!" Grande squinted at Miki, scolding in his heart, while secretly rejoicing, "Although our Miss Malt is also an elf, her brain is much better than her!"

Grandet doesn't have much affection for Miki and her fellow mercenaries.

At the beginning of the city of Edding, as the butler of Fergus, he participated in all the affairs of the caravan to hire mercenaries, set off, and marched to the city of Munny. Even the deposits of the two mercenary teams of [Blaze] and [Thorn] were paid by him himself.

In Grande's opinion, since these guys are mercenaries, they should have the ability and consciousness to solve problems for their employers. Whatever method is used, the safety of the caravan must be ensured.

If they had been attentive and professional when they were in Medin City, and had been cautious enough about some suspicious issues, they would have been able to avoid being attacked by the Black Skull bandits. It's a big deal that the caravan will be on the road a few days later, otherwise, you can also take measures to break up the whole into parts, attack the east and west, or ask the consortium to send people to support.

But these are the professional things of the mercenaries, not only did they not do it well, but they also sneered at Roy who found that something was wrong, the nose is not the nose and the eyes are not the eyes. What is especially hateful is that this elf named Miqi actually put a knife on the young master's neck.

The more he thought about it, the more Grandet looked at Miki's gaze, and the rough breath that erupted from his nose was as fiery as a dragon's breath. He, Grande, was a man of gratitude. The young master saved Master Fergus and saved his own life, how could he watch this damn elf waste the young master's money and be indifferent!

Grande's gaze was not seen by Miki. At this time, she was completely confused.

Since escorting the caravan to Muni City and handing over the mission, Miki has temporarily bid farewell to the mercenary team and is alone to find out the news of her captured people.

The Elven Auction was something she knew about long before she came to Muni City. So she rented a small attic outside the slave market and observed it every day. Soon, she saw the elves in a prison cart during one of the slave traders' transports. At the same time, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her people were among them!

For two years, this was the first time Miki saw her loved ones. At one point, she tried to stealthily approach the rescue. However, because the slave traders were extremely well guarded, and there were several powerful characters among the thugs they raised, Miki's rescue plan several times ended in failure. Seeing that the auction was about to start, Mi Qi was ruthless, and borrowed 3,000 gold Lu Lang from the mercenary squad leader Alder and Shala, plus the more than 2,000 Jin Lu Lang he had accumulated, which he used to hire a carriage, buy clothes and jewelry, pay the auction deposit, and disguise herself as an arrogant and arrogant aristocratic lady and sneak into the auction hall.

The only thing she could do now was to sabotage the auction and prevent her people from being bought by different nobles. As long as the auction fails, at least in the short term, the slave traders will not be able to get rid of the elves in large numbers, and may even transfer them to other cities for auction, which gives her time and opportunity to plan again.

The plan started off smoothly. The auction deposit of 5,000 gold lulang made the slave traders never think that someone would make trouble with their money. But what Miki didn't expect was that she didn't be able to leave. Unexpectedly, just when she thought she would have no luck, she actually met Roy. Moreover, he also reached out to her.

For this, the price Roy paid was the precious magic core in front of him, which was worth hundreds of thousands of gold and made everyone take their breath away

With the sound of heavy breathing, Snerry half-squinted, looking at the thing in front of him, and for a long time, his eyes fell on the spatial ring on Roy's hand.

Snarry is forty years old. He was the battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the Fifth Legion, an Imperial Knight, and a baron. In terms of knowledge, he was far more knowledgeable than anyone else present. Therefore, while everyone else's eyes were focused on the demon core, he focused his attention entirely on Roy's spatial ring.

Snerry had seen many spatial rings. In fact, he had one himself.

However, most of the spatial rings used by him and the nobles beside him were only the size of ordinary chests. At most, a sword or a bow can be placed. In this way, the price of a space ring is also more than 10,000 gold lulangs, and if you are not a rich person or a lord who owns a territory, you can't afford it at all.

And the space ring of the young man in front of him was far more advanced than them. Just by looking at the demon cores, furs and bones in front of him, you can see that the space in the ring is at least the size of a room. Such a ring is not something that can be bought with money. And the identity of a teenager who can have such a ring may not be simple.

"Haven't asked yet, you're here" Snerry decided to get to the bottom of it first. Although as a member of the Fifth Legion, he was not afraid of anyone in the province, including the Grand Duke of Adolf, but he was still afraid of some of the old families in the imperial capital. He didn't want to offend a monster he couldn't afford to mess with.

However, Roy clearly didn't want to deal with him. He waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that I am willing to give money, and whether you are willing to release people or not." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Miqi, and continued: "According to the rules, since she has already paid the auction deposit, then, even if she repents, you can just deduct the deposit." The money is already yours, and if you want to use knives and guns, I'm afraid it's not appropriate anywhere, right?"

Looking at Roy, who had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, the slave traders present were all weak for a while. Even Snarry's face looked a little uncomfortable.

What Roy said was indeed the rules of the auction house. If he really wants to be reasonable, then he can completely give up the deposit of 5,000 gold lulang and refuse to execute the previous auction price. No one can do anything about him. After all, this is the capital of Lulian under the rule of Archduke Adolf, and no matter how bad they are, they have to abide by the rules here.

"Okay!" Snarry nodded, knowing that he couldn't afford to take advantage of anything more at this point. In addition, he didn't understand the details of the other party, so he said simply: "Since this is the case, then I will be a little more simply." Here's what I'm going to do right away. How much money there is, how many slaves you take away. However, the rest of the deal"..., looking at Snerry's gloomy eyes, Roy said dryly: "I admit it!"

"It's a deal!"

Counting the magic core materials and valuing them one by one is an extremely time-consuming task. Every piece of magic core, every piece of fur, old Grande and the other party are red-faced, and they don't eat a copper Sani, but they still take advantage of it. So much so that Nasnari looked at Grandet's gaze a little unkindly.

And taking advantage of this time, Roy also pulled Miki aside. Inquire about the cause of the incident.

Miki lowered her head and honestly told the whole story.

There are many things that even the companions in the Blazing Light team don't know. But I don't know why, when she saw Roy's eyes, she didn't have any thoughts to hide it, from how the village was attacked two years ago, how the clan was captured, how she entered the human world, joined the mercenary group, and talked all the way to her escape from the auction hall.

It's like a flood breaking its banks.

Until I poured out all the words that I had accumulated in my heart for two years. Miki stopped. Finally, she wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and whispered, "Roy, I'm sorry, thank you." ”

Although the combination of apology and thanks is definitely a little awkward and a little confusing, this is what Miki wants to say to Roy the most at this moment.

Saying I'm sorry, it's she who has always felt that she owes Roy an apology for the misunderstanding and conflict with Roy in the team. And thank you, but there is too much meaning. For today, for the sake of their own people, and for the sake of all the members of the Blazing Light Squad.

On the way to escort the caravan to Muni City, Roy once saved the lives of everyone in the team.

Not only that, but the Blazing Light team also benefited from this mission, jumping from a third-level squad to a fifth-level mercenary team, which shook the mercenary world of the entire Muni City.

In the hierarchy of the mission hall, the tasks are divided into six levels from E to S according to their difficulty.

The lowest-level E-level quest is usually undertaken by low-level mercenary squads and mercenary newcomers. The highest-level S-level missions require some super mercenary squads or even several mercenary groups to work together to complete. In order to complete a mission, it also happens that four or five mercenary groups are collectively wiped out.

Since the difficulty difference between each level is very large. Therefore, for each difficulty increase, the points given by the task hall are in the range of 5 to 20 times the lower difficulty task. In other words, to complete a B-level mission, the points can reach as low as twenty-five times as many as D-level tasks, and up to four hundred times as high!

And this time, the escort mission entrusted by Fergus was only a D-level mission when it was taken to the mission hall for reporting.

After all, escorting a caravan from Medin City to Muni City, which is only a one-day journey, is not only short in distance, short in time, but also relatively safe in route. All mission conditions are assessed as a slight risk in the mission hall.

But as the caravan encountered the Black Skull bandits, and even involved the big case of Viscount Wenger's collusion with officials and bandits, this D-level difficulty task was directly adjusted to B-level. However, the points of the task increased to a terrifying level as the difficulty increased.

More than 100 times the points of the original mission. As a result, the levels of the two squads of [Blazing Light] and [Thorn] rushed directly from level three to level five in an instant. Step into the ranks of the Intermediate Mercenary Squads between Level 4 and Level 6!

For any mercenary squad, its point level is the most valuable asset. Having a higher level means that they can get far higher rewards than before, they can take on tasks that they couldn't undertake before, they can get a higher status in the mercenary group, and they can make many mercenaries with outstanding strength rush to join one after another!

At that time, as soon as the news spread in the city of Muni, it caused a sensation.

On the one hand, everyone was shocked by the destruction of the Black Skull bandits and the shocking answer of Viscount Wenger, and on the other hand, they were blushing at the good fortune of the Blazing Light and Thorn Squad. For a while, Blazing Light and the Thorn Squad became celebrities in the mercenary circle of the entire Muni City. When everyone talked about them, the envy was palpable. ..., but only the mercenaries of the two squads themselves know how their good luck came from. If it weren't for Roy, they would have been corpses on the heights on the east bank of the Helai River!

Everyone was grateful to Roy. The mercenaries have always been willing to repay kindness and revenge. Everyone has been discussing how to repay this favor. But Miki didn't expect that the previous thing was gone, and she actually owed Roy a sum of money. It's not something that can be repaid with a thank you.

However, Roy didn't seem to hear Miki's words.

At this time, he was frowning, looking at Snarry not far away, and turning his mind.

Judging from Miki's account, he was sure that the people who attacked the elven villages were the people of the Fifth Legion. Two years ago, the Fifth Legion had been stationed in the area where Miki was located. Moreover, being able to attack an elven village with hundreds of people that everyone can master archery skills is by no means an ordinary person.

In the Saint-Soran Empire, the Fifth Frontier Army did not have much of a good reputation. This legion was not only a die-hard loyalist of Prime Minister Donald, but also tried to attack the weak links of the Ferret's army in a roundabout way at the expense of the main force of the Lulian army of Archduke Adolf in the recent Battle of Medin City.

If it weren't for the Battle of Medin City, the Lulian army won a complete victory, and quickly moved forward under the command of Sophia, annihilating the follow-up troops of Ferray, I am afraid that the current city of Muni would have become the southern base camp of the Ferley army!

No Lurian likes the Fifth Legion.

However, as the only frontier army unit of the empire currently in Lulian, no matter how much everyone hates the Fifth Legion, they can only endure it. Even after the Medin City incident, the most severe punishment for this legion was only the return of the legion commander Shi Shiran to the imperial capital with a large amount of finances. None of the officers, who were the backbone of the corps, were held accountable.

And it is said that the new commander of the army is also a member of the Prime Minister Donald's line. I arrived in Muni City half a month ago, and I still don't even mean to meet Archduke Adolf.

At present, most of the Fifth Army is stationed in the city of Muni and several cities north of Lulian, but Archduke Adolf and the Red Leaf Army are stationed on the front south of Medin.

Although the royal family had already ordered the Fifth Army to move south on several occasions to help strengthen the defenses. However, this legion did not pay attention to it at all, except for being arrogant and domineering and harassing the locality, and asking Lulian to provide supplies and salaries again and again. Recently, there have been several clashes between officers and soldiers of the Fifth Army Corps and local people.

To be honest, when he took things out just now, Roy himself was in pain.

If it had been another slave trader, perhaps he would have asked Fergus or Philip to figure it out. But this Snarry is a member of the Fifth Legion.

Roy once heard Philip say that the relationship between the Red Leaf Legion and the Fifth Legion was a sea and fire. Among them, in addition to the opposing positions of the two sides in the imperial political structure, it is also because of the conflict of interests of the family. In particular, the newly appointed Legion Commander Boli is the eldest son of the Undersecretary of Finance, who competes with the Carré family.

Roy didn't want to get involved in a fight between the nobles, at least not yet. And these elven slaves are very important to him, so he has no other way than to solve them with money.

But it's not that easy to get!

Sooner or later, let them all spit it out to Lao Tzu!

When one after the carriage transporting slaves appeared on the winding road at the foot of the Green Tower Manor, everyone in the manor was alarmed.

The maids crowded around the window of the small building and watched, Hans, who was holding a horse with a long rope in the stable, had a smile on his face, Daddy Ken, who was repairing farm tools, raised his head and stood up, and Mai'er and Sister Lan, who were pruning the branches and leaves under the fruit tree, simply tore off the handkerchief that covered their hair and ran to the gate of the manor. ..., more people poured out from all sides of the manor, converging on both sides of the road leading to the fountain of the main building, watching the mighty convoy, everyone's face filled with joy and excitement.

The name Green Tower Manor was born one morning, when Malt was strolling down the grassy hillside in the pale golden morning light, and saw the green paint mottled water tower on the high wooden shelves next to the warehouse. Although it was only a whim, I didn't expect that the name would be liked by everyone in the manor.

The new name was decided. And a new life is also unfolding in this land.

Since buying the manor and going to the academy again, Malt and everyone in the manor have put all their enthusiasm into the construction of the manor.

Although the slaves left behind by the previous generation of the manor are still recuperating, a small number of them are in good shape and are able to work. In addition, more than 30 families of Borabel farmers, including the old Maxim, who were the first to be taken in by Roy, have moved into the newly built wooden house and began to cultivate the fields, and the whole estate has suddenly become vibrant.

In this war-torn and chaotic world, everyone in the manor cherishes it incomparably to be able to have such a peaceful land of their own.

They repainted the exterior of the building. The railings and crumbling fences of the horse farm were repaired, the shelves of the vineyards were rebuilt, and the ponds were cleared of weeds and silt. In the fields, they carefully ploughed over and over again, dredged irrigation canals, and even erected a waterwheel rack by the clear river that flowed through the estate.

A rejuvenated manor that changes every day. You have to be younger and more vigorous.

Early this morning, Grandet asked the coachman to prepare a carriage and go into the city.

Everyone in the manor knew that the chief butler Grande went to the first training camp to find the young master for the labor that the manor urgently needed, saying that he would drag the young master out of the academy no matter what, and solve the matter.

Since the young master entered the academy, he hasn't returned to the manor for a week. Not only Miss Malt, but Hans and Daddy Ken talked about him every day, and even the servants and slaves in the academy were looking forward to seeing the young master, who was already a quasi-knight, wearing the uniform of the training camp.

In everyone's hearts, being admitted to the knight training camp means that he will definitely become a nobleman in the future. Young Master Roy can have such an achievement, not only will they have honor, but their future status will also rise, and the future will be more promising!

In the blink of an eye, a convoy of more than a dozen carts and a black van carriage had already driven into the manor. With the arrival of the convoy, Ivan and the three outstanding figures on war horses, also like ghosts, galloped out of the woods in the distance, and after a moment of galloping, they had already appeared on both sides of the convoy.

The convoy stopped in front of the estate. The crowd gathered excitedly, but after a few moments, everyone was stunned. The first carriage to come out was naturally Roy and Grande. But the slaves who got out of the taxi behind him, except for the first few carriages were normal humans, the rest were sixty or seventy young elves with yellow faces and thin muscles!

"Look, it's an elf. ”

"So much?!"

The crowd burst into an uproar. For most people here, elves are not uncommon, but this is the first time that they have seen such a large number of elves at one time.

You must know that the human alliance that resisted the demons had already been disbanded for more than two hundred years. After the Renaissance, the elves, who had a deepening rift with humans, were the first to leave the human world. Their entire tribe migrated into the inaccessible mountains and jungles, and built a lakeside city that was entirely theirs.

After the elves, the dwarves and gnomes also parted ways with the humans. Each of them has established an underground city and a trap city far away from the human city, and lives independently. The sight of humans, elves, dwarves and other races living together in the same city three hundred years ago is long gone.

Now, except for some elven mercenaries of the mercenary group, everyone has only heard that there is an elven army of no more than five hundred people under the command of the royal family of the Solan Empire. Dwarves and gnomes, on the other hand, are only occasionally found in some weapon shops or shrines. Most of the rest of their clan are careful to keep their distance from the human world.

No one expected that there would be so many elves in the manor. And, judging from the ragged appearance of these elves, they were no different from the slaves who got off the other carts.

Didn't the young master and Grandet buy so many elven slaves and come back, how much would it cost! The price of sixty or seventy elves is enough to buy a dozen such manors!

Everyone exchanged heads and talked about it.

"Dead head, come over to me" Malt saw Miki among the elves at a glance, and immediately grabbed Roy's arm and dragged him desperately into the small building. Behind him, Jem, Ivan, and Grandet glanced at each other and followed. Leave Jesse and Jackson to house the slaves and elves.

"What's going on?" asked Mai'er as soon as she walked into the living room of the small building.

Roy scratched his head and told her everything that had happened in the slave market today.

"500,000 Jin Lulang!" As soon as Roy talked about the price of the last batch of magic cores and fur discounts, Malt suddenly jumped up with a scream. The appearance of gritting teeth is about to burst out.

These magic cores were fortunately saved by hunting together when she and Roy were living in a desperate situation. Roy is a magician, he uses it himself, and Miss Malt has no opinion at all. However, he used all these things to help others, and the eldest lady didn't do it. This is simply digging into her heart!

The most hateful thing is that this is still helping that goblin named Miki!

The dead head must be a small suspect, and he has taken a fancy to that goblin!

Looking at Mai'er's angry and suspicious gaze, Roy was afraid that she would be mad on the spot, so he hurriedly said with a sincere face in front of Ivan and others: "You say, they are all your kindred, can I not save them? Then you know, how sad it should be." ”

As soon as they heard Roy's words, everyone present nodded.

In everyone's opinion, Roy helped these elves, except for the fact that he and Miki had fought side by side at the beginning, and they could be regarded as having a friendship with each other, but I am afraid that most of the reasons were because of Malt. After all, these are Malt's kindred, and if Roy doesn't save him when he sees death, Malt will know about it in the future, and he may not be so sad.

Malt, on the other hand, opened her mouth wide in disbelief.

Sad, the old lady will be sad, sad fart! Dead head, knowing that the old lady is a noble, noble, pure and elegant dark elf, who wants to be the same clan as these ugly monsters in the earth!

"What?" Roy winked.

Mai'er knew that her identity could not be exposed, although she hated it in her heart, her face showed a touched look, she grabbed his arm, twisted it under his ribs, and said tenderly, "Master, you are so good." ”

One person suffered a dumb loss and flattened it.

Roy endured the pain, turned his head to Grande, and said, "Mr. Grande, you can find a doctor to check the bodies of these slaves and elves who came today. By the way, I would like to ask the gentleman named Karenich to come to my real yàn room. ”

"Okay, young master. Grandet said respectfully.

"Mr. Ivan," Roy turned his head to look at Ivan, "please help me contact Philip and ask him if he can help me get a hundred and twenty short bows made of black ironwood." ”
