"My lord, there are a lot of miners found in the cabin over there in the camp!"

Just as Gervais was standing on the side of the carriage and playing silly, one of the guards ran up.

"Oh, then go over and have a look!"

It was not surprising that there were miners, but they saw at least 100 people in the camp on the mountain that day, except for more than 50 guards, the rest were probably miners in charge of mining.

Led by the guards, Gervais came to the middle of the camp, and I don't know if it was to prevent the miners from escaping, all the wooden houses were built in the middle of the camp, a long distance from the wooden wall.

When Gervais came to the door of the wooden house, the door of the wooden house had been opened, and there were five or six guards with torches standing at the door.

"My lord, the two wooden houses next to them are also miners!"

The guard who had come with Gervais pointed to the two wooden houses next door.

"Yes!" Gervais glanced at the two cabins, then withdrew his gaze to the cabin in front of him again.

"Who's the head of you here?"

Seeing the miners trembling and frightened, Gervais didn't go inside, but asked aloud at the door.

However, in the face of Gervais's questioning, none of the miners dared to take the lead, but most of the miners peeked at one of them with their eyes, and when the person saw the people around him looking at him, he was suddenly frightened, and knew in his heart that he could not hide from it no matter what, so he could only raise a hand in fear and replied: "I...... It's none of my business...... I just work hardest...... They made me the captain of the ......."

"Come out and take me to the mines."

Gervais knew what these miners were afraid of, but Lenny's soldier Gervais would not be soft to kill, but these unarmed serf coolies, he couldn't do it, he just wanted to see what the Mithril Mine looked like.

No matter how frightened the man was, in the face of Gervais's order, he could only squeeze through the crowd in fear, and walked out of the wooden house, bending over and standing beside Gervais.

"Lead the way ahead, I won't kill you if you're honest and obedient."

Gervais took a torch from the guard next to him and shoved it in front of the man.

Under the leadership of this person, Gervais finally came to the mine cave of Mithril, there are three mine entrances in the whole camp, the mine is not deep, and it was dug to more than ten meters underground, Gervais asked the miner captain, and learned that there are a lot of ores here, but the rock wall is relatively hard, so it took more than a month to dig out five truckloads of ore.

After a rough inspection of the three mines, Gervais retreated, and through observation, Gervais found that the reserves of this Mithril Mine should not be small, after all, the three mines are hundreds of meters apart, and there are Mithril ores, and many of the Mithril ores that have not had time to be mined are exposed in the mines.

When Gervais finished inspecting the mine and came to the middle of the camp again, the guards had turned over the entire camp, and found no remnants of soldiers, but only a large amount of food in a wooden house, enough for more than 100 people to be rationed for more than three months, which made Gervais very happy, and tonight's operation can be said to be a great victory.

"Lord Nashen, what do you say we should do with this camp?"

When the guards emptied all the food and loaded it onto the wagon they had come, Gervais was ready to evacuate, but Gervais looked at the large camp with some distress.

Gervais wanted to take this camp for himself and dig the Mithril mine himself, but reason told him that it was impossible, and the six knights died in one night today, the masked Gervais did not know the identity, but Lenny's men were all noble vassals, no matter what the reason, it was a felony to commit suicide among nobles, and Gervais's head was not iron enough to fight against the nobles of the entire principality.

Therefore, it is impossible to get this camp for the time being, but once it is withdrawn today, even if Lenny suffers heavy losses, he will definitely send people to continue mining, and it will definitely be heavily guarded at that time, unless Gervais burns down this camp, in order to suspend Lenny's mining operation.

"Master Gervais, you can only burn it! Otherwise, Viscount Lenny will definitely be able to resume production soon, and it will not be so simple if you want to break through this camp again in the future. ”

"Well, then burn it, tie up all those miners and drive them to the woods."

After listening to Nashen's words, Gervais finally made up his mind, he actually knew that burning it was the best way, but when Lanny built this camp, he attached great importance to it, except for the construction materials were wooden, everything else was quite elegant, and it was a small fortress at all.

If Gervais and the others hadn't outwitted them tonight, and Richie didn't further confirm their identities in a panic, it remains to be said whether Gervais and the others would have captured this camp.

As a traverser, Gervais has a strong desire to protect the building, and he also thinks that he will become stronger in the future, and he will not have to rebuild the camp after retaking this place.

"Master Gervais, those miners ......"

Nashen felt that Gervais was good at everything, but he was too kind-hearted, and in his opinion, these miners were killed just a hundred, which not only saved the risk of exposing them, but also made it more difficult for Lenny to mine again, after all, it was also a trouble to re-transfer a hundred and ten miners.

"Lord Nashen, needless to say, it doesn't matter if these people kill or not, serfs can't be witnesses to prove nobles, this is the law of the principality."

Gervais knew what Nashen wanted to say, so he interrupted him without waiting for Nashen to finish.

The serfs of this world are lowly, so the serfs cannot be witnesses to testify against any crimes of the nobles, and Gervais does not have to worry at all because these people put himself and others in danger, and these miners do not know them at all.

As for Viscount Lanny's side, Gervais felt that even if they did a seamless job tonight, among the objects of suspicion, he Gervais must be the top priority, after all, there was a direct conflict of interest with him, but it didn't matter, Gervais would recruit troops when he went back, as long as he stayed in the castle honestly during this time, he could continue to come out and wave when his strength went up.

Seeing that Gervais had made up his mind, Nashen no longer persuaded him, so he gave a few orders to the guards next to him, and immediately the guards divided into two teams, one of the guards went to the miners' hut, threw the ropes found in the camp to the miners, and asked them to tie up the people around them one by one, one by one like wearing beads, and when they were all tied, the guards took them out of the camp.

The other team piled up all the combustibles in the camp next to the walls and wooden houses, and when all the miners came out of the camp, all the combustibles were set on fire, and the hay and bed sheets immediately burned violently under the ignition of the torches.

"Let's go!" Seeing the entire camp enveloped in flames, Gervais withdrew his gaze, rolled over to the horses, and then gave the order to start the journey back with the carriage, which represented the successful conclusion of his first journey in life.
