The Barrage Said, I Am the Final Villain In the Game - Chapter 287
Chapter 287 Small tasks
Under the cloudless blue sky, Lynn rode his horse and galloped forward.
Behind him, about 20 or 30 well-equipped knights were following him, smashing the green field together.
When they reached their intended destination, they slowed down and breathed a sigh of relief.
The summer sun is always breathless, especially for these knights who are wearing light armor and have to travel long distances, but even so, they never complained or protested during the journey, just silently Performing the task of the leader.
Lynn turned his head, with a little praise in his eyes.
They are an elite unit trained by the Karan family, both in terms of quality and combat effectiveness, they are far superior to ordinary noble knights—at least they did not question Lynn, who suddenly parachuted to lead them, but shouted piously and fanatically “Long Live Karan”.
Not long after Lynn stopped, a knight with a slightly different armor style from the others walked out of the team.
He took out a map and handed it to Lynn respectfully.
“Sir, we have arrived at the designated location, please give us follow-up orders.”
Lin En looked at this map, which was marked very clearly, whether it was terrain or other things, and didn’t reply immediately.
He was recalling the tasks that Irene had given him a few days ago.
This task is specifically about how to deal with Christine.
Since Karan agreed to the royal family to participate in the crusade against Christine, it is natural to have some strength, and it is still the main force.
Now most of the troops have moved from Karan’s territory to Christine, and their elite troops mainly need to detect intelligence.
In addition, it is not impossible to cause them some troubles so that they have no time to take care of the future.
The location they are at at this moment is called “Luoshi Town”, which is only one step away from the territory that Christine actually controls now.
However, the terrain there is more complicated, mainly hills and woodlands, which is not suitable for cavalry battles.
So in the next time, they can only travel on foot.
After changing their clothes, they dressed up their group as an almighty merchant convoy, and packed some camouflaged goods, so they set off again to Christine’s current site, Fanhualing.
The scenery of Fanhua Ridge is very nice, it is a place suitable for sightseeing, usually there are a lot of tourists, which brings a lot of income to the residents here, but now it is a special period, everywhere seems deserted.
When they arrived at the entrance of Fanhualing, they were so conspicuous.
“There are inspectors.”
Lin En was a little surprised by such an ordinary thing.
Because it was mentioned in the rare information, there is some confusion inside the Christian camp.
The specific reason is unknown, but you should be able to figure it out when you think about it—as the boss, you don’t have your own territory, so you ran to the younger brother to seek refuge, and even dragged the younger brother to use the younger brother’s money to help you fight the war.
This made the original owner, who was based on the family unit and had a complicated heart, quite complain.
But that’s not the point.
The point is that these “nobles” with the surname of Christine.
As a group that has been admired by the stars for a long time, they suddenly fell to such a point, and it is difficult for them to change their mentality for a while.
For example, the quality of life will definitely deteriorate, making it impossible for these nobles to adapt.
Although most of them still have brains and won’t show it directly, a series of trivial actions can easily touch the emotions of others and make others feel dissatisfied.
Coupled with the addition of a small number of brainless little guys who stay here every day and act as devil kings, pointing fingers at the whole world, this caused the originally low favorability to drop again and again.
Later, although the Duke reacted and set many rules to restrain them, the impression he had already created could not be changed.
Because of this, Lynn thought that they didn’t have time to do security matters for the time being, but it seemed that they still valued their own lives, and the safety issue was still not relaxed.
But what is the use of only human words?
As the carriage team gradually moved forward, Lynn, who was sitting in the lead carriage, turned his head and asked the people around him, “Are you sure there are no magicians?”
“Sure.” The man said without changing his face, “Not only is there no magician nearby, there is no magic circle for detection.”
“Um.”
Nodding slightly, Lynn is relieved.
These carriages have been specially modified, and have a certain ability to detect and inspect in disguise. It is difficult to detect the mysteries hidden in them with ordinary detection magic and magic circles.
However, if there are magicians with relatively strong strength and powerful perception ability, they may not be able to hide it from them.
Mages at this level often don’t rely on experience for the existence of magic power, but their sense of smell.
When their intuition tells them that something is wrong with this team, they will definitely react.
Lynn doesn’t want such trouble, so the current situation is obviously very good.
However, when the convoy reached the inspection gate, they were still stopped.
The reason why they were stopped is not surprising, that is, the simple little devil is difficult to deal with, the times are difficult, and everyone wants to earn some extra money.
In order to avoid trouble, Lynn naturally didn’t mind giving this insignificant amount of money, but when he gave the money, he looked at the three hands reaching out at the same time, showing interest.
In many places, this kind of little ghost blocking the door will happen. It seems that it has become an unwritten rule for passing merchants to be forcibly asked for customs clearance fees.
However, in this rule, there is actually another hidden rule.
Money, one share is enough, if you dare to be greedy, you will suffer.
Little ghosts are the bottom-level existences who are most afraid of rules, so they seldom confront such implicit rules. However, at this moment, things seem to be a little different.
Making a embarrassed expression, Lynn said with difficulty: “Gentlemen, you also saw it when you checked just now. What I do is just a small business, and I can’t make much money, let alone in this kind of business. It’s time, I only have so much.”
He took out a money bag and hung it in the air, and then one of the three hands snatched the money bag as quickly as possible.
“You” one of the big bald men glared at the little skinny man holding the money bag, “You are new here, do you understand the rules! Is this something you can take?”
The little skinny man retorted: “Why can’t I take it? Everyone is a dog, and my master is much more noble than yours.”
The remaining man with blue stubble on his face sneered: “Yo, you are still pretending, you are noble, why did you come to our territory?”
“It’s just a lost dog.”
“you”
The atmosphere in front of him gradually became intense. Lin En stepped back, leaned on the carriage, and watched the farce with great interest.
It can be seen from their dialogue that the three of them should belong to three different families.
The bald man should belong to Christine, the bearded man is a native of Fanhualing, as for the remaining one… I don’t know for the time being, but it’s probably not one of these two.
“Even the subordinates are so discordant, it seems that this place is going to explode sooner or later.”
Taking advantage of their lack of time to take care of themselves, Lynn led the convoy successfully through the checkpoint, the center of Fanhua Ridge. It was just getting dark at this time, so they were “forced” to rest here.
There are many places in Fanhualing with hotel flags hanging at the entrance, but there are very few people on the road, and it seems that everyone has no business.
Randomly found a place to rest, Lynn sat on a chair in his room and tapped on the table lightly.
“Briefly investigate the surrounding information.”
Like a mosquito, the word “yes” fell down, followed by a gust of wind, and there was no more sound.
While waiting for the information to come back, Lynn did not rest.
He was thinking about what just happened.
It’s not that he has any thoughts about those little guys, it’s just that he can sense that the atmosphere here is not harmonious.
“Perhaps, they can be dealt with without a sword?”
According to their current situation, it seems easier to solve them if they are not dealt with in the form of war.
Because they are not united, but the external force is likely to forcibly screw them together.
Although Christine’s current strength is not comparable to the few companies that are fighting outside, but he is not a complete soft persimmon. It takes a little effort to deal with them.
If they can be dealt with without bloodshed, it will definitely be a good thing for the contributing party.
As for where to start, we still have to look at the intelligence.
Soon, the information came back.
Since Lynn’s order is to simply investigate, there is not much information presented, probably only some things like regional differentiation.
According to the intelligence, in Fanhua Ridge, there are three areas where people’s activities are relatively lively and the atmosphere is clear, and people who are active in a certain area will only circulate in this area and will not go to other places .
There is no other reason, it’s just that they don’t deal with each other.
Of these three areas, Christine occupies the largest area, followed by the original owner Chrysos, and the smallest area is a hodgepodge of helpers brought by Christine.
“Tsk, this is the time, do you still want to differentiate into this?” Lynn was very disappointed with Duke Christine’s ability.
I didn’t realize it before, probably because the role of the surname is too great. Even if Duke Christine doesn’t have such excellent leadership skills, he can still lead everyone by virtue of his title. His leadership directly collapsed, and no one else could control him except his own family.
Shaking his head, Lynn temporarily put aside his personal evaluation of Duke Christine, and turned to thinking about how to use the fastest speed to disintegrate the opponent.
Not long after, he thought of a very good solution.
There is a place in the southeast of Fanhua Ridge, and the guards are quite strict no matter what time of day it is.
Because this is a warehouse, a grain warehouse.
For the lord, it is very important to make food reserves.
In peacetime, everyone lives in peace, and if you have nothing to eat, you can buy some from other places, but when it comes to times of war, food has become the most necessary commodity, and the war will burn down the trade lines of merchants. It is easy to put one’s own territory into a state of famine.
For places like Fanhualing, where the terrain is not good and there is not much arable land, and tourism is the main source of production value, food reserves are even more important.
The lord of Fanhualing is not too noble, but he doesn’t want his subjects to starve to death one day, otherwise who will give him a job and maintain his glamorous noble life?
So, in Fanhualing, this grain warehouse is the place where outsiders are least allowed to approach.
Of course, no matter how much the boss warns, for ordinary people, guarding a place where there have been no disasters all year round, it is still a night of rascals, and it is inevitable that they will start to fish.
Look, there are a lot of guards chatting at the gate now.
“I said, those newcomers who gram something recently are too **** good to eat, and they transported so much food from us in one fell swoop.”
“Damn, it would be fine if you just eat these. I’m afraid you don’t know that some of the meat and wine our master has stored have been sent to others.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, the treatment is really good.”
“The treatment is really good, but they don’t appreciate it. They dislike the bad wine and meat, and even the food is hard.”
“I’m super, what else is going on?”
“That’s no good, they are nobles, noble Catalina people, how can they see our rags.”
“Damn it, isn’t this a moth, why didn’t the master drive him out!”
“Ghost knows, maybe the master is old and his brain can’t work.”
“Hey, you dare to slander the master, you are so brave!”
“Stop pretending, you grandson, and don’t think I don’t know how many times you’ve been drooling over the little girl that the master brought into the castle!”
“I’m not drooling.”
“Ha ha ha ha-”
The guards held their spears and laughed, and immediately picked up the few low-quality drinks that everyone treasured, and drank a glass together.
“This **** war, we can’t even drink alcohol.”
“Oh, when will it end?”
“And this weather, summer is really terrible, it’s so hot.”
“Yeah, it’s so hot, didn’t it seem so hot just now? What’s going on?”
“Yeah, what’s going on, I’m numb!”
The guards suddenly turned their heads and found the warehouse they were guarding. At some point, flames burst out from every corner.
“Fire! Put out the fire!”
Shouting and roaring, the guards desperately brought drinking water, but compared to the growing fire, this water was just a drop in the bucket.
They took the empty bottles to the nearest river to fetch water, but when they came back, the fire had gradually become uncontrollable.
“Damn, is there a magician! A magician who knows water magic! Save me!!”
The noise quickly spread throughout Fanhualing. Fortunately, among the people brought by Christine, there were indeed magicians who knew water magic.
His shot successfully quelled the fire and saved some food.
However, if he knew the consequences of this rescue at this time, he would definitely not choose to take action and let them burn out.
