"Big ...... Adult, the villain has just gone to inspect the territory, and he did not greet your arrival at the first time, please understand! Benny was very weak-hearted, but he also knew that Gervais didn't know what he was doing, so although he was nervous, he could still calm down a little on the surface, and said to Gervais in a respectful tone.

"Oh!" Gervais listened to his words, and said to them simply, with an undeniable look, his face was still cold, and said to them: "You lead the way, go to the castle first!" ”

"Yes! Your Lord! The ten guards replied in unison.

After saying that, the seven guards who had arrived earlier lowered their heads, peeked at Benny a few times, and saw that Benny had already taken the lead towards the castle, so they followed behind with a cower.

Gervais and the others rode after them, and although it was slow, Gervais was not in a hurry.

Sitting on his horse and walking, Gervais looked around the town, just looking outside, walking on the main road in the town, he had a deeper understanding of the poverty of Marina Town.

The paths on both sides of the main road were full of filthy dirt roads, and the thatched canopies of wooden houses on the side of the muddy roads were also leaking, some of the walls had many large holes, only a few broken wooden boards were nailed to the holes, and some of the houses were actually made of tree branches.

The only few stone houses in the town are off the main road, and although the walls outside are already damaged and some of the stones have fallen off, they are the only buildings in the town that can be seen.

After passing a few stone houses, Gervais looked inside, there was a blacksmith shop, although it was a little dim inside, it was not real, but Gervais could hear the rhythmic sound of iron knocking from inside, in this world where iron is also a scarce resource, only the blacksmith can hear such a collision.

As for the other two stone houses, when Gervais and the others passed, the doors and windows were closed, and they could not see what they were inside, and I don't know whether they were used for living or other purposes.

After passing through the town and walking for another four or five minutes, you will reach the bottom of the castle, which is not the same as Gandalf's. In comparison, the Viscount Major Castle is probably more than four times larger than Gandalf's Baronial Castle, and it is built on a hill twenty or thirty meters high, surrounded by steep rock walls, and the smallest difference between the top and bottom is more than 20 meters, only in front of the hill, there is a gentle slope more than ten meters wide leading to the castle gate.

Gervais looked at the majestic castle in front of him, and it was hard to imagine how the orcs had breached this castle worthy of a fortress.

It can be said that Viscount Marjoll chose to build a castle here with great pains.

Because this hill is surrounded by steep cliffs of dozens of meters, the castle is built on it, in the event of a war, as long as you hold the passage up the mountain that is more than ten meters wide, the castle can be as stable as Mount Tai, and there is no explosives in this world, if you want to start from the mountain, the possibility of posing a threat to the castle is very small, and if you want to capture the castle, you can only choose to attack from the narrow road up the mountain.

After a few moments, the group followed the passage up the hill to the castle.

Looking up at the castle, the scene at this moment is different from the feeling of looking at it from a distance, and in the distance, it only feels that the castle stands on a hill, which is quite spectacular.

But when standing at the bottom of the castle and looking up, the castle is like a giant towering in front of him, which is extremely shocking, and it is foreseeable that if there is an enemy to invade, when he reaches the bottom of the castle, he can feel his own insignificance just by looking up, and his heart retreats.

I don't know how many years it took to build this castle, this is definitely a huge project, no wonder Viscount Marjoll will have the confidence to resist the orc invasion in the castle, sitting on this castle, Gervais can't help but have a kind of pride in his heart at this moment.

……

"Let's go, go in and see what the inside of my castle looks like!" Looking at the castle in front of him, Gervais was excited, and after taking a rough look at the appearance of the castle, Gervais took the lead in entering the castle.

Walking into the castle gate, the eye is different from the vestibule of the Rose Castle, which also has a tree pond garden, but this castle is a wide open space, similar to Gandalf's castle, but the area of the open space is obviously much wider than Gandalf's castle.

In the vestibule, because there have been no nobles living in it for more than thirty years, it looks desolate, and although it can be seen that it must be maintained, there are still low weeds everywhere.

On the left side of the vestibule, at the foot of the city wall, there is a row of wooden houses, outside which some clothes are dried, and scattered garbage can be seen on the ground. Gervais was not surprised, this was supposed to be the house where these guards lived.

Although the guards are stationed in the castle, they cannot live in the inner castle of the castle, the castle is the residence of the nobles in this world, and it is a symbol of the status of the nobles, even if the castle has no real owner for a period of time.

However, the soldiers in charge of garrisoning them can only move or live outside the inner fort, and they are not allowed to enter the inner fort unless there is a special matter, and the vestibule is all their activities in the castle.

As for the littering, Gervais didn't plan to delve into it for the time being, and the guards also showed panic when they saw their eyes lingering there.

Gervais believes that from now on they will not dare! Because the castle has a new owner, Baron Gervais.

Chirping...... Chirping......

When Gervais and his party pushed open the heavy gate of the inner fort, because it was uninhabited for many years, the lock of the gate was already a little rusty, and the moment they pushed the gate open, it made a squeaky sound, like the dubbing of a thriller.

The heavy gate was completely pushed open, but the inner fort was not covered with dust as expected, it seemed that someone cleaned it regularly, otherwise it would have been uninhabited for decades, even a year and a half, and the castle would have been full of dust and cobwebs.

It's not spotless now, but it only needs a little cleaning to move in.

"Is it cleaned from time to time?" Standing at the gate, Gervais looked at Benny, who had been leading the way in front of him, and the door to the inner fort had been pushed open by him and a few guards.

Although Gervais is now sure that Benny has a ghost in his heart, and it is definitely not a good thing, he has just arrived in the territory today and has not yet moved in, so he doesn't want to ask him right away for the time being.

Wait until you settle down today, and then slowly solve these small things tomorrow, they now have the power of life and death in their own hands, if they make some small mistakes, they will not be to blame in the past, but if they do something hurtful, then Gervais will not be soft.

If any of them are really full of evil, he is ready to use it to buy the hearts of the people in the territory. Although they are all serfs, Gervais, who has crossed over, knows that these poor and oppressed serfs are the cornerstone of this world.

Although he is not ready to be a savior, he will not be a cold-blooded person who leads the people to die regardless of himself.

"Yes, my lord, Winterfell has an order to have serfs come and clean it once a month!" Benny heard the question and immediately replied.

What Gervais didn't know was that although Benny's face was normal at the moment, the panic in his heart was even worse than just now.

Because in addition to doing evil outside, he also did something in the castle that was unforgivable for the nobles.

For a year and a half, Benny held the highest authority in the realm.

Since opening Pandora's box this spring, Benny has become unscrupulous, and he wants to enjoy the life of an aristocratic lord.

So he moved out of the wooden house at the foot of the city walls, and lived in the inner castle guest rooms, which only the nobles and lords could live in, and also frequented the study of Viscount Marjoor, secretly took some books out of the castle, and assigned his cronies to secretly sell them in other towns for money.

The other seven guards in the castle were a thorn in his side. Because of these seven people, what he did could be leaked, but fortunately, these seven people were recruited from among the serfs, and their families were used as a threat, forcing them to stay in the guest rooms of the inner castle for a week, and telling them that if this matter was leaked, whether they were forced or not, they would definitely be hanged.

Benny did not deceive them, whether it was right or wrong, they lived in the inner castle privately, and the nobles knew that there was only a dead end.

When this was done, Benny sat back and relaxed, and took two of his men into the inner castle, sleeping in a bed that only a noble lord could sleep in.

After sleeping for a few days, Benny felt a little empty and thought about it, the noble lord would still hold a banquet in the castle. He couldn't hold a banquet, and the three of them could only drink wine in the castle, preferably only among the nobles, but it required money, so Benny came up with the idea of the books in the study, which had been placed for more than thirty years and had not been looked through.

Viscount Marjoll was also a veteran aristocrat, with three generations of his family and countless treasures in the castle.

But since his death, some of the treasures have been damaged by the orcs, some have been preserved, and the few remaining treasures have been cleaned up by the Earl, and the valuables have been brought back to the Rose Castle, and only some useless books have been left in the castle.

These ordinary books were useless to the true aristocracy and could be purchased at any time. But for some freemen and even lords, these books can make their empty shelves compact, so that visitors can recognize their cultivation when they see them.

Books are also one of the most expensive items in this world, and civilians have to work hard for a month to save enough money to buy a book. Benny stole the books and sold them for one-third of their original price. The money from the sale was exchanged for good wine for him to enjoy.

Benny originally thought that his aristocratic life would always be able to enjoy his life until he was transferred and left here, but there was never a shortage of accidents, and there was no place for nobles for thirty years, but today there was a nobleman, and he was a nobleman who had just become the new owner of this place.

Benny knew he was going to die, because the guest room they had stayed in hadn't been cleaned, and it wouldn't be the time for tonight to be revealed!

If you are evil outside the castle, the nobles may not want their lives, but at most they will be fined for their money or removed from their guard positions. But if the three of them live in the inner castle, they will definitely be sent to the gallows by the baron in front of them!

In fact, what Benny doesn't know is that there are two things, and the one that can really kill him is actually the first one! As for the second one, if they hadn't done anything hurtful, Gervais could actually treat it as if it hadn't happened!
