PS: I'm sorry, there are too many things today, and I've just finished writing a chapter now, and I shouldn't be able to write the next chapter...... In addition, the end of the year is very busy, and the update before the 25th is estimated to be unstable, but there is at least one chapter per day.

Halfway through autumn, the vegetation on Campbell Plains is turning yellow, which is a sign of falling temperatures and approaching winter, but it also indicates that the grain is ripe and the granary is full.

This is the case at Lord's Manor in the heart of Campbell, where several new, larger granaries stand on one side of the farmland, and at least half of the space is filled with a variety of harvested grains, making it a special sense of satisfaction at first sight.

Construction was underway on the estate, and buildings were beginning to take shape, with many people busy moving around, transporting wood and other tools, and even though the weather was getting cooler, they were almost all dressed in thin shirts, and sweat was dripping from their foreheads.

In fact, the most populous place of the manor is not here, but on the outside near the green river, this area was originally a gentle slope, but it has been artificially carved out two flat open spaces, one large and one small, separated by almost two hundred meters.

At this time, there were quite a few people standing on both sides, and there were about fifty people in the smaller clearing, most of them were dark-skinned middle-aged people, and the rest were almost composed of young people, but regardless of their age, they were all dressed in standard light armor, holding sharp long swords, and stood in several rows.

Standing directly in front of them was a burly man, with a huge weapon stuck in the ground beside him, and the big man was waving his arms, as if explaining something to them.

The larger open space had a hundred and thirty or forty people. Among them, there are old and young, and they dress quite casually. There were people in front of them who were talking, but they often glanced to the other side as they listened. His eyes were full of envy.

Except for a few places where the most people gathered, the entire lord manor was not surrounded by walls or any shelter, except for the outermost back of the building, which looked like it was defenseless. However, in the shadows of these buildings, a few figures occasionally appeared, squinting at the grass and trees in the distance, and immediately alerting them if they found anything unusual.

It can be seen from this scene that after experiencing the haze of the assassination of the original lord. Campbell's lord estate was once again rejuvenated.

However, although the people in the manor are busy in their own way, they occasionally stop what they are doing. Raising their eyes to the east, their gaze would gradually become confused, and then they sighed and continued to work.

This is because Campbell's young lords took a group of men to the Black Forest, and it is said that they would go all the way to the depths of the Black Forest. And as of today, it has been twenty days away. But no news came back.

"Menshak, you say...... How long will it take for them to come back?" stood two people on the roof of the easternmost building, and one of them hesitated for a moment, and asked the person beside him.

"It should be soon," said Menshak, his eyes still looking to the east as he spoke, but still nothing was found.

"But that's what you said a few days ago......"

"And what do you want me to say?" Menshak glanced at the other man, "Do you want to sue sù that you don't even know about me?"

"Alas......" the mountain man sighed. "I don't know why, adults won't come. I look at the people on the manor and they are listless. ”

"Yes, although the adult is young, he is the pillar of everyone's heart, he is not there, in fact, I am a little unsure. ”

Although Menshak used to be the head of a tribe of the mountain people, the relationship between him and the mountain people was more like a brother, so the mountain people spoke to him very casually, unlike when facing Moros with a hint of awe.

"By the way, Menshak, you went to those two battles a few days ago, and it is said that there was a guy who looked like a big lizard later, is it true?"

"Of course it's true," Menshak's expression immediately brightened at the mention of the battle, "You're talking about lizardmen, I killed dozens of them with my own hands!" And not only these guys, but even the goblins came all the way on wild boars, but so what, they couldn't rush in front of the soldiers with big shields at Markburg. ”

"It's a pity...... It's just that there are more of them," Menshak's voice became a little lower, "If it weren't for Master Kaka himself, it is estimated that more than ten people would have lost on our side in the end." ”

"Is that dwarf really that powerful?" the mountain man smacked his lips.

Menshak glanced at the other and said, "Remember, it's Master Kaka!

The mountain man immediately embarrassed to admit that his mouth was a little quicker, and then he whispered, "Why do you say that Campbell's men have to bring the body back?

"Not necessarily," Menshak said, "It's just that the habits are different, Chief Jeff said that the lord wants to build a cemetery for the dead in battle, in fact, I think about it now, if you are buried in such a cemetery, it seems that it feels really better to be surrounded by so many comrades." ”

"When you say that, I suddenly feel that there is some reason......" The mountain man said this, his eyes rolled, and he asked: "Menshak, next time you go and talk about it, will you let me go?"

"If you want to fight, you can take the guò fitness test, it's a fair way, and it can really prevent people with less ability from dying in vain," Menshak smiled, "If you can't get through...... Just keep coming back as a sentinel, you have a lot of eyesight except for those elves. ”

"Alas......" the mountain man sighed in disappointment, "I tried, but I didn't get through." ”

"Don't worry, there will still be a chance in the future," Menshak reassured.

The mountain people acquiesced, and after a moment he added, "Now that the enemy is invading from the south, and I have heard that people in other places dare to expand their range to Campbell, just as the night wolves have eaten away at our forests little by little...... You say, are they bullying the young adults?"

Menshak shook his head and said, "Didn't Master Kaka say that we don't need to worry about this matter, and there will definitely be a way to deal with it when the adults come back, besides, do you think that adults are like people who will be bullied if they are light?"

"That's ......," the mountain man smiled, "I remember when we first came, the adults drove those outsiders out one by one, and it was really happy." ”

Menshak glanced at the other party coldly, "You just feel happy, you can't see the adult's methods at that time, right?"

He then sighed slightly, and said with emotion: "Actually, the decision to follow the adults out of the forest this time is really wise, look at the changes in these places around you...... If we stay in the big forest any longer, the mountain people will really be finished in a few decades......"

Speaking of this, Menshak shook his head, "Forget it, that's it, you continue to be in charge of the lookout, I'll go back." ”

The mountain people didn't answer, and Menshak didn't care, he turned and was about to jump off the edge of the roof.

However, the other party grabbed his arm tightly, and then the voice came.

"Look! Why are so many people here!"

Menshak immediately retreated to the side of the mountain people, looking to the east, and at this time he could see a group of people approaching this way, almost fifty or so.

The mountain people were a little nervous, "When the adults left, it should be about twenty people, and this shouldn't be them." ”

"No......" Menshak's voice was clearly overjoyed, "It's Lord Leon who is back!"

At this time, the people were closer, and the mountain man squinted his eyes and looked carefully, although the number did not match his memory, but the person who walked in front could already see it clearly.

That was the young Lord Campbell. (To be continued......)
