"Fake." The system immediately whispered back in his head, "Carl has gone back, the one who is gone." ”

Ryan snorted, and did not question why Moses was lying, but said softly in his head, "Then remember to remind me when he is about to come back, by the way, I want to buy something in the store if it is convenient." ”

"As long as you want, the Krypton Gold Store can be opened for you at any time." The system's voice was full of pleasure, "In addition, there seem to be some powerful magical beasts hidden in this place, please be careful." ”

Ryan: "Thank you. ”

*

When Moses and the others scattered to look for eggs nearby, Ryan jumped off the back of the flaming horse with little skill, and walked alone to the place where the water reed grass was the most.

He vaguely remembered that ducks were birds, and they preferred to lay eggs in dry grassy places.

When he walked to the river, Ryan noticed that there were many non-human footprints on the semi-wet mud floor, which were scattered in number and variety, and it seemed that different beasts often came here to drink.

When Ryan reached out to the water reed, Moses, who was always watching his movements, pretended to bow his head to find the egg, and quietly gestured to the other person.

They all tried to dissuade Ryan when he came out, but not only did he not listen, but he also brought more guards, and if he encountered a powerful beast, the casualties could be completely blamed on the accident. What's more, Ryan came to Orlan alone, and although something really happened to the escort team, it was a big deal for Moses to come back with a different identity, and his attitude towards his companions was also very ordinary.

It's just that......

Moses secretly glanced sideways in the direction of the castle, in fact, he didn't know why Henry wanted Ryan to die, and it would not necessarily be better to change the lord again.

*

According to the prompt of the system, he found the water reed grass with traces of being crushed, and Ryan, who stopped at the lake, reached out to remove the tall and dense water weed, and luckily found a nest of eggs at the root of the water reed grass.

The blue-gray eggs are the size of an adult male's palm, and there are seven or eight in a litter, which is the most common gray-headed duck egg.

When Ryan picked up the egg and held it in his hand, the corresponding items in the Krypton Gold Shop began to be discounted, but the price was still a little expensive for Ryan now.

Ryan turned his head sideways, looked at a member of the guard, and asked, "Do you know how much Grey Duck's eggs sell for in the market?" ”

"Honorable lord, let me think about it."

The young man who was questioned was stunned, thought seriously for a few seconds, and then replied: "Normally, one silver coin can buy about 15 eggs of a gray-headed duck. ”

One silver coin = 100 copper coins, and a gray-headed duck's egg is about 6.7 copper coins, but the price of a gray-headed duck egg in the Krypton gold shop is 15 copper coins, and the price before unlocking it is 50 silver coins.

Although the price of an egg is unlocked for 15 copper coins after picking up the egg, it is still a little more expensive than the gray-headed duck eggs sold in the market.

Ryan thanked the man, and after being reminded by the system, he remembered that his name was Toby, and then said, "You try to find as many eggs as possible, and I will buy them with you at the market price when I go back." ”

Toby's eyes were a little surprised, and he waved his hand again and again to refuse, "Honorable lord, you don't have to do this, this is what we should do, and we are all paid every month." ”

Ryan blinked, "And how much do you get paid each month?" ”

Toby's face was a little shy, "I haven't been in the Guardian Team for a long time, and I can basically get 50 copper coins in a month. ”

Ryan: "......"

Ryan: "Is it enough?" ”

I couldn't help but sigh in my mind, "This person is really cheap labor." ”

Toby quietly glanced sideways at Moses, and saw that he was staring at this side, and was silent and did not dare to speak.

"It's cheap."

The system said what he didn't dare to finish on Toby's behalf: "The monthly salary of the normal escort team is 30 silver coins and 50 copper coins, and there are some monthly food subsidies, Toby said that he got 50 copper coins, but they still have to pay a tax per capita every three months." ”

Ryan's eyes froze, "The lord's treasury is empty. ”

Where does the tax money go?

The answer doesn't have to be thought about.

Ryan closed his eyes and turned his head to Toby, "Don't rush to refuse first. ”

Toby's eyes were tangled, although he had just talked to Ryan about 50 copper coins a month, in fact, every month the members of their escort would also pay some money to Moses.

He wanted to tell Ryan about it, but he didn't dare.

The previous lord was too old to care about anything, and everything was left to Henry.

Ryan was also dealing with everything when Lane arrived, and he was worried that it would be useless to say it, and he would lose his job as an escort.

Chapter 10

Ryan took the initiative to mention that Toby wanted to tell him the truth about the Escort.

Although they don't make much money in the escort team, and they don't have much chance of getting ahead, they are at least better than farming, and it sounds like a more decent job, and they can occasionally have some meat subsidies, which can also make their families pay less taxes.

But Moses was not a good man, and neither was Henry.

Ryan had only been here for ten days, but he looked pretty good.

In addition, Toby knew about Moses and Henry's plan, to be precise, several people present except Ryan knew that Moses was going to lure out the high-level Warcraft in the forest, and when Carl, who went back to deliver the message, led the rest of the people to arrive here, he designed to let Ryan die due to the Warcraft riot.

Just when Toby was struggling in his heart, he suddenly heard Ryan say, "I'm going to change the status quo of the escort when I go back, isn't that right...... Not only the escort team, but I hope that more powerful people can have better opportunities to show their abilities. ”

What does this mean......

Toby was not stupid, and swallowed his Adam's apple again and again, ignoring Moses' staring at him not far away, and immediately asked in a loud voice: "Is what you said true?" ”

After saying that, he felt that he had used the wrong words, so he reached out and slapped his mouth hard, apologizing and full of anticipation at the same time, looking at Ryan nervously and asking, "Honorable lord, I didn't hear it wrong just now, right?" ”

Ryan's voice was neither loud nor small, and the three people except Toby could hear it.

Moses was a little panicked for a moment, accidentally slipped off a duck egg and broke it, and the other two also stopped looking for the egg at the same time, ignoring Moses' panic behavior, and looked at this side with surprise in their eyes.

"Yes, you heard it right."

Ryan bowed his head slightly, and reorganized his words: "I think that good people need plenty of space to show themselves, and everyone who contributes should be rewarded, and those who work hard should not be treated unfairly, nor can they let lazy people sit back and enjoy their work, I am currently thinking about a plan, or it should not be long before an announcement will be released." ”

When Ryan's words fell, except for Moses's face became more ugly, the other three could clearly feel their high emotions.

No one wants to be treated unfairly.

Ryan quietly glanced at the broken eggs on the ground in front of Moses, turned to Toby and the other two and said, "It's getting late, see if you can find more eggs, and we'll go back in a while." When I return to the castle, I will reward you according to what you have gained, although it will not be much, but it is also a part of my heart. ”

Even if he doesn't give it, just these few words are enough to make people feel good.

Toby put Moses' previous threats behind him and began to stir up the weeds in earnest, as did the other two, except for Moses, who had resentment and anger in his eyes.

When he came, because of Moses' deliberate delay, most of his time was wasted on long detours.

Ryan put the gray-headed duck eggs he found into the storage space, and asked the system with some joy in his mind, "Is there any difference between the eggs from the store and the eggs I picked up?" ”

The system replied to him coldly, "You get what you pay for, I recommend you buy one." ”

Ryan: "......"

Good fellow, if it weren't for the fact that he only had one gold coin left in his body now, he would have bought two eggs in the store on the spot right away!

Lane pondered how to make money and reached out to push away another clump of aquatic weeds, unaware that Moses had coerced one of the members of the Guardians, and the two of them went deeper into the forest as they pretended to look for eggs.

Toby's mind is very nimble and he knows the habits of the gray-headed duck, and when he was lucky enough to find a second nest of eggs, he looked sideways at Ryan, just in time to see Moses in the distance.

Toby stopped where he was, glanced at his other companion who was still looking for the Grey Duck's eggs, and looked down in contemplation for a few seconds before walking over to him.

Money and food are the most appealing, Toby doesn't know if Ryan is telling the truth, but he knows Moses' plan, and he wants Ryan to live at least to this day, even if it's an adventure, but it's also an opportunity.

Moses relied on Henry to become the captain of the guard, and he didn't do anything on weekdays and took away their salaries, everyone in the guard team had long been resentful of Henry and Moses, but the situation forced him to swallow his anger, but what Ryan said just now made Toby see that the opportunity was in front of him.

It's just that one person has some too many concerns, and he is ready to bring a companion with him, after all, even if it is too late to let Ryan go back now.

*

Moses and another member of the escort named Asa went deeper into the forest.

Moses had organized his convoys to hunt in the forest many times, and he knew that there was a mid-level demonic beast Flame Tiger living nearby.

The Warcraft of this world are divided into three levels according to their strength: low, medium, and high.

Levels 1-3 are low-level Warcraft, 4-6 are mid-level Warcraft, and 7-9 are high-level Warcraft.

High-level Warcraft has the highest life level, and most of the high-level Warcraft cubs are born with the strength of Level 6 Warcraft.

Dragons, orcs, half-orcs and other special intelligent creatures do not belong to Warcraft.

The strength of human beings and other intelligent beings also has three levels: apprentice, medium, and high, but there is also a holy level above the high.

The gods were originally the strongest life forms in the world, but after the fall of some gods, the strongest in the world are currently the elemental lords.

Ryan Campbell is a fourth-level mid-level magician, and for some personal reasons, he has only mastered some low-level and medium-level small magic.

Moses was looking for traces of the Flame Tiger in the forest, and Assa, who was following him, looked back behind him, looked up at the back of Moses' head and whispered, "Captain Moses, are we really going to do this?" ”

What he meant was to arouse the Flame Tiger's hatred, and then transfer it to Ryan so that more people could see that while they were doing their best to save him, Ryan died under the claws of the Flame Tiger.

This was Henry's improvised plan based on Ryan's insistence on going to the forest.

"How can you be sure that what he says must be true? It's been ten days since he came here, have you seen him leave the castle or made any useful decisions for us? ”

Moses' face was not very good-looking, he paused in his steps, turned to look at Asa with unkind eyes, and said, "Although I am optimistic about your strength, don't forget how you joined the escort team." ”

Asa was silent, he wanted to refute what Ryan had just said, but Moses was indeed kind to him at the beginning, and even after joining the guard, his monthly salary was almost all robbed by Moses.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Moses turned his head and snorted, and continued to walk towards the lair where the Flame Tiger was in his memory.

He didn't regret that he was too domineering in his daily life, but hated Ryan for being so good at buying people's hearts.

*

The lake wasn't all where the grey-headed ducks lived in groups, and Ryan couldn't find any more grey-headed eggs other than the one in the vicinity.

Toby and Al, who were more familiar with the environment, had a little more harvest than Ryan, and they collected the grey-headed duck eggs they had picked up into a broken bag prepared in advance, and skillfully tightened the broken spots with strings.

Ryan moved his wrist, the sleeping bird on his shoulder suddenly flapped its wings and chirped, the flaming horse scraped the ground with its front hooves, and when Ryan, who noticed the abnormality, felt as if the temperature had suddenly risen a little, with the heat wave coming, a tiger roar suddenly came from the depths of the forest.

The moment they heard the whistling, Toby and Al's faces changed instantly, and they didn't even have time to put more duck eggs into the rag bag, and they ran towards Ryan at full speed and shouted loudly, "Lord Ryan, run away, this is the cry of the Flame Tiger!" It was an extremely dangerous beast! ”

Ryan walked towards the flaming horse and asked, "Where did Moses go?" ”

"I should have gone somewhere else to find the Grey Duck, you don't have to worry about him, your safety as a lord is more important."

Toby and Al looked at each other, then said almost simultaneously, "Hurry up and ride the flaming horse back to the castle!" Let's go and lure the Flame Tiger away! ”
