"I was out for a walk that day, and I happened to see the strange remains of a tree stump on the side of the road, and the lines on the stump resembled the face of a baby. The Baroness said slowly: "When I saw it at first sight, I ...... I had a feeling that the stake was the most important thing in my life, and that I wouldn't let anyone hurt it, even if it cost my own life. ”

"Are you willing to die for it at a glance? Sieg was silent.

This kind of thing should be some kind of mind-confusing spell.

"Later, I took the stump home and was inseparable from it, and I kept it with me all day long, as if I were my own child......" The countess covered her mouth and burst into tears...... At that time, I really didn't know what was going on, but I actually had a mother's love for a stake, and ...... And it's so persistent that it's unreasonable. ”

She was really ashamed and angry when she thought back to her previous actions, and she only felt as if she had been blinded by something.

"And then?" asked Sigurd, expressionless.

"Later...... I don't know what happened after that, but by the time I got back to my senses, it would be like this. The Baroness looked at Sieg in embarrassment and fear.

This man actually trampled on the terrible giant tree with one foot.

Sieg nodded, the baroness shouldn't be lying.

"This strange dryad is also smart, and when he was still a weak stump, he decisively hugged the baroness's thigh and fought for a safe space for himself. Sigurt speculated that the stump was presumably the tree's weakest child, and in order to survive and absorb nutrients, it controlled the Baroness, the most powerful woman in town.

It's like a parasite, and it's found a powerful host!

At this time, Baron Cowell took the opportunity to step forward and said to Sigurt with a somewhat humble face: "Lord Sige...... There's something I'd like to ask you to help me with. ”

"What's the matter?"

"That's right. Baron Cowell and his wife looked at each other and said, "Yesterday, when the doctor in the town was bandaging my wife's wound, he suddenly found that it was in my wife's stomach...... It seems, there seems to be something unclean, growing!"

Baron Cowell's face was pained, and he searched for doctors all over the town, but to no avail, he could only turn to Sigurd.

"What's in your stomach?" said Sigger, with a strange expression.

"Yes. Baron Cowell nervously took Madame's hand.

Sig's eyes instantly turned blood-red again, and then ...... Then he saw that there seemed to be a ball of blood-colored flesh in the baroness's belly, which was wriggling.

The meat ball was the size of two fists, emitting a blood-red glow, and projected directly into Sigurd's crimson eyes, which was indescribably weird.

"Probably something left over from that weird dryad. Sigurt remembered that the tree spirit was called the Baroness [Blood Golem], and he was very concerned about the safety of the Baroness, so he immediately reasoned.

"Your Excellency, please save my wife. Cowell saluted Seeger and pleaded.

Mortals have always been so powerless about the occult.

Sieg smiled, crossed his legs, put his legs on the desk in front of him, leaned back against the chair, and said lightly: "Mr. Cowell, I need to remind you that as a mystic of the Guards Legion, I am only here to solve the mysterious incident that happened in the local town, and I am not obligated to save your wife." ”

There was a smile on the corner of Sig's mouth, and his eyes looked at the poor baron, revealing a strange message inside.

Although this Dawn Port is a small port in the New World, it must have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. And because of its proximity to the Black Bone Rainforest, there are many adventurers, so maybe there are some occult items circulating in the town.

"Don't worry, my lord, I will give the corresponding price. Baron Cowell naturally understood the meaning of Sigger's smile.

It's about knocking yourself out!

"What price can you pay?" said Seeger laughed.

"I'm willing to pay the tax revenue of Dawn Harbor for three years!" Cowell said through gritted teeth.

Although Dawn Port is small, the tax revenue accumulated in three years is also a huge amount.

It can be seen that Baron Cowell has a deep affection for his wife.

But Sieg shook his head slowly.

Gold?

He had long been out of sight.

"Five years!" Cowell gritted his teeth, added another two years, and said, "My lord, it will only be five years at most, and if it is more, it will violate the laws of the kingdom, and I will be held accountable by the noble senate." ”

Sieg frowned and glanced at him, and said, "I'm not interested in gold coins, no matter how much you give out, it's useless!"

Baron Cowell was stunned, and then seemed to understand something, and said with a lewd smile: "I know, recently there is a slave company, in the depths of the rainforest, found a strange race, all of them are women, and they are very beautiful women, and those slaves happen to be still in our port, I will intercept them for adults." ”

"Stupid!" Sieg suddenly said angrily, "I want a mystical item, a mystical item!!"

"Occult Items...... I don't have that. Baron Cowell froze.

He was just an ordinary mortal nobleman who had crossed the ocean to come here to earn a living.

Sieg suddenly showed a devilish smile, and said to him slowly and seductively: "You don't have it, but it doesn't mean that there is no one in this town." ”

"You mean......" Baron Cowell seemed to understand something.

"Yes, I want you to take your musket team and search me from house to house, intercept any passing ships, and collect their occult items. Sieg grinned, "Don't worry, if you can't figure it out, I'll help you." ”

"This ...... How can this be!" Cowell looked shocked: "This will be opposed by the people of my territory, and intercepting ships will have a huge negative impact on our port, and even provoke some powerful trading companies." ”

"The people are opposed?" Sigurt said dissatisfiedly: "Who has the final say in this land? Are you still a nobleman or not!"

"I ......," the baron was momentarily speechless. But when you think about it, it seems that you are indeed the owner of this Dawn Harbor, and you are the out-and-out lord here.

Theoretically, all the people need to call him a master.

"Also, keep your eyes open, don't mess with those big trading companies, but for those companies that aren't famous, hehe......" Sig said to the Baron with a fluttering eyebrow, full of demagoguery.

"That's ...... Is it really good. The Baron was still a little hesitant.

This baron is a good nobleman who cares for the people of the territory.

But Sieg was not satisfied at the moment, he frowned and said: "I don't want to pick their skins, but I just want to search for some occult items, this kind of thing is also a scourge for them to keep, I am doing this for their good." ”

"As for those offshore trading companies, which ones are not robbing their things with blood on their hands, can they be called robbery!" said Sig righteously.

"Also, do you want to save your wife, if not, then please go out. At the end of the speech, Sieg directly turned into an indifferent face and made a gesture of sending off guests.

Baron Cowell turned his head and looked at his wife, and when he saw his wife's yellow face and haggard look, he finally gritted his teeth and said to Sieg, "Okay, I promise you!"

"That's right. Sieg grinned.

......

In the days that followed, Dawn Harbor was filled with patrolling musketeers, soldiers in the red and white uniforms of the kingdom, going from house to house searching for occult items.

Of course, they are talking about seizing any illegal goods and cracking down on the opium trade.

The trade freighters that came and went through Chengxi Harbor were also intercepted one by one, and they also began a thorough search under the guise of cracking down on the drug opium trade.

Not to mention, in just three days, he found some occult items for Sigurg.
